I absolutely loved stopping here for our last breakfast in town before starting the long journey back. Coffees were delicious and strong and the breakfast burrito was truly the best breakfast burrito I think I've ever had. The space is so cute. I read on their website while planning the weekend that they are open for breakfast, lunch, dinner and have live music on the weekends. It looks like they do it all. We stopped in early and had our choice of tables. The space is big, clean and perfectly calm. Great spot for a slow breakfast. After ordering at the counter, they brought everything over to our table. I got the oatmeal bowl. Delicious and simple. However, I couldn't help but steal many many bites of the breakfast burrito. Seriously, get it! A great spot with good food, a friendly team and a cozy vibe. read more

The Windham Local Public House is definitely a unique spot--part coffee bar, part Thai restaurant, with a laid-back atmosphere and friendly service. It's an unexpected combo, but it has a certain charm. I stopped in for coffee and pastries, both of which were pretty good. They also had live music while I was there, which added to the ambiance, though the performance could've been better. I didn't get a chance to try the Thai food this time around, but I'm definitely curious and planning to go back for that soon. It's an interesting place with potential! read more

I crave soup dumplings and before coming, I read the online menu: "Dumplings served from 11am-Close," but they failed to mention only on weekends. Oh well, it was a Thursday. Three stars because I liked the building. read more

Had a great experience today! The food was very tasty and the menu was broad. I had an open-faced tuna sandwich that came with a delicious salad and dressing. A great choice if you're visiting Windham! read more

Without out a doubt the best dinner I had on my trip was at The Windham Local. It's a great use of an old bank building, keeping the distinctive structure and adding a kitchen with a chef who clearly knows what he is doing. We did not expect Thai food from the name but let me tell you the Pad Thai was out of this world. So full of flavor. I got to pair it with a local brew, one of a few they have on tap at any given time. Dinner was so satisfying that we immediately resolved to return for breakfast. Just as good and with high quality coffee to boot. This is a perfect date spot. I will absolutely eat here again if I find myself in the area once more. read more

Delicious breakfast! Literally the best iced coffee ever. Nice atmosphere. Family friendly.

Excellent coffee and sandwiches! The person who served us with foods and drinks were super nice. The place was comfortable and clean.

Great food and drinks with super friendly staff. The interior is super cosy feeling with great ambiance. We had the pork soup dumplings, steak sandwich, and spaghettini with Italian sausage which were all super tasty. We also had a chai latte and a thai tea. The Thai tea wasn't as quite sweet as what I've had else where but it was still absolutely delicious! The friendly staff and the soup dumplings are definitely the highlights of this place. Definitely visit if you are in Windham :) read more

Nice modern coffee shop with a spacious interior and quality coffee and breakfast/lunch food options. I got the Steak Sandwich, which had ribeye steak, mushrooms, cheese, and chimichurri sauce on ciabatta bread with a side salad. The sandwich was really tasty, as the steak was very tender and cut into comfortably sized pieces. The cheese was nice and melted inside and the mushrooms were good as well. The ciabatta bread was a good level of softness and crispiness on the outside. $24.50 for this sandwich which includes ribeye steak is reasonable. The place itself is nice with wooden tables and chairs. The tall ceilings give the space a very open feel, and there is a decent amount of seating inside. You order up at the counter and they can bring you your food or call out your name when your drink/food is ready. The staff are moderately friendly and the service speed is pretty good. The place is located in the main area of town, so you will likely have to find street parking. Overall, I would highly recommend The Windham Local if you are looking for a casual yet nice breakfast/lunch spot or a morning coffee. read more

How this place received a 4.4 is beyond me. If I could give this place a negative 1 star I would. I seldom write a negative review but with my recent experience at this facility I will make an exception. Upon entering the establishment I wasn't sure if they were open since I was the only patron at the restaurant and I clearly see why. The waitress who served me looked like she was having a bad day and clearly showed it through the grimace on her face. She reluctantly took our order of pork soup dumplings, my wife had a shrimp pad thai and I had a stir fry veggies with steak. The soup dumplings clearly tasted as if it was bought from trader joes and heated up in a microwave, my steak stir fry was tasteless and my wife shrimp pad thai was extremely salty, it felt like they dump a bottle of table salt on the meal. The meal was vile and odious, when my wife complained about her meal being salty the waitress simply said, "deal with it, thats the way our chef makes it." Along with a slew of nasty comments she made. When I went to complain to the manager, she simply didn't care and was just as dismissive. For a meal that cost just as high as a 5star restaurant in nyc, you would at least expect good service. I can't see this business lasting through the winter. I advice you to please stay away at all cost. Eating a discarded McDonald's meal from a dumpster is more appetizing than the crap they serve here. read more

Been to the Local a bunch of times but haven't left a review. We had dinner this weekend and sat at the bar. Lovely staff. Great soup dumplings! Only complaint would be for a $27 entree, at least as much as NYC prices, the stir fry plate should be a little more full!!! read more

Delicious coffee, tasty food and friendly service. Particularly coffee is better than the other little coffee shop in town, Clutch and Throttle, which was weirdly bitter and weak at the same time. read more

Front staff was unfriendly. Our food had no flavor and my egg sandwich was inedible. I threw the entire thing away and had to bus my own table. Eggs are not cooked to order, instead they are baked in a tray. read more

4.5 stars. Really nice, spacious coffee shop/café. Super fresh ingredients and a substantial food and drink menu. They even had beer/wine/brunch cocktails. The coffee was solid- they use beans from Oslo Coffee Roasters. We stayed in the area for two nights and ended up eating here for lunch as soon as we got in and then breakfast before heading home. I had the Catskill Cuban and my fiancé had the chicken portobello wrap. Food took some time to come out but was clearly freshly made to order. I don't normally go for Cuban sandwiches but tried this version because they use roasted chicken and ham instead of the traditional roasted pork and ham. The sandwich was lighter with the chicken but still had some of the salty, tangy flavors of a traditional Cuban which was perfect for me. Breakfast a couple days later did not disappoint either. I had the quiche with tomato, feta, and asparagus as well as a scone. My fiancé had the breakfast burrito which he said was filling but a little bland. This place is a no brainer whether you live in the area or are visiting. Prices were comparable to NYC coffee shop/café prices. read more

I made a mistake: I came to the Windham Local for dinner. Please learn from my mistake and don't go here for dinner, until they get their act together. (Note: While my dinner was unforgivably awful, the breakfast sandwiches and lunch options look good in photos from other reviewers.) For dinner, my daughter wanted to try the spaghetti (pictured), while I ordered the shumai (not pictured), and we shared family style. Both dishes were incompetently executed. The spaghetti consisted of overcooked noodles and watery marinara that tasted like it came from a jar. Also, as you may be able to see in the picture accompanying this review, the bowl of pasta was about 1/2 to 1/3 full with sauce. Instead, they should have cooked the noodles al dente, then thrown the noodles and much less marinara than I got into a pan with a small amount of pasta water. From there, they should have cooked the mixture down until it was no longer watery. Cooking the pasta-sauce mixture down like this, with a small amount of pasta water, binds the sauce to the noodles to avoid the dreaded "pasta soup" consistency that, unfortunately, I experienced here. As for the shumai, it was unrecognizable. It was more like soy shrimp risotto stuffed into shumai dumpling shells. But shumai is NOT supposed to be made with rice. It's primarily ground pork, shrimp, and mushrooms with onion and spices. As best as I can tell, they subbed out the ground pork and replaced it with rice without any indication on the menu. While I suppose that could be cool in principle, the execution was flawed. Among other things, the rice was overcooked and mushy. So, apparently, this place has no concept of how to cook dry goods -- like pasta or rice -- to their proper doneness. So why rate the Windham Local two stars instead of one? Friendly folks serving up food they didn't prepare earned this place the extra star. Otherwise, it's a one-star dining experience -- at least for dinner. read more

Was refused entry due to my service dog. He is a certified service animal (not emotional support dog) but they did not even ask to see paperwork- just yelled at us to get out the moment we walked through the doors. Asian woman at the counter was rude and yelled. They need to follow the law. read more

Friendly service and pleasant vibe. Overall the food seemed just ok but maybe it was what we ordered rather than the restaurant itself? Probably would not go back, but the people who work there are very attentive. read more

This place has the most Amazing bagel breakfast sandwiches!!! Buttery creamy eggs & outrageously delicious.

This place is pretty good but the prices are literally double any place else you could find the same thing, in almost every case. The stir fry was ok, but not when a small serving comes for over $20 with old stale/hard rice. The soup dumplings are ok, but not for $24. Service was good and as long as it's not too crowded the ambiance is chill. Just wicked expensive. read more

what can I say went there with several friends for lunch I ordered a bagel with cream cheese and a coffee. The bagel was rockhard and ice cold when it came to the table and toasted to the darkest brown you can get without burning it the cream cheese was ice cold in a little pot next to it so that it couldn't be spread on the ice cold bagel. The coffee even stunk $13 couldn't eat it. Everyone talks about the ambience, but it was actually freezing cold in there when we went there. Yeah no..... read more

Unfortunately not happy with this place at all. The service is something weird they take your order at the counter so it's really not a sit down restaurant it's more like a deli. It took over an hour to get our food and we saw people who came in after us getting food. They cooked our meal when they cook the meal of the eight people that came in I'm guessing because we all ordered the same thing. The back of the counter on the left is very messy with books, office material shirts in a box. I guess they don't have a real office to work out of. The bread on my sandwich was it hard as a rock. By the time I got my sandwich my drink was warm and almost gone. The manager was talking to the cook as the cook is putting ruffled in a container out of a bag with his raw hands after looking at his cell phone and we all know so phones are filthy. Needless to say we will not be back again. read more

Whenever we are in Windham, The Windham Local is a must stop for my wife and I. The food and service are always top notch!

This community-oriented cafe in Windham mountain is not to be missed when in the area. We came here for a brunch on Sunday, the ambiance is casual and one can help themselves to a table and order from the counter. The menu is on the board at the back of the counter, your order will be delivered at your table once ready. After ordering, we sat next to a window overlooking the Church and the ski slopes of the resort. We chose cheese and ham quiche, served with salad and 3 pulled pork tacos together with glasses of Cabernet Sauvignon. The dishes were freshly made delicious and served in timely fashion. I can see the reason why the neighborhood love to hang out it, it's cozy and relaxing with a good value meal and great customer service. read more

Wowow. The bacon egg and cheese bagel sandwich is probably the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. The bagel is toasted with butter and the egg is nice and fluffy. Seems like it might be been baked, but it comes with a chipotle mayo sauce that compliments so perfectly. A little more expensive than most, but definitely worth it. Great job! read more

Great option for vegetarians. Loved the choices. We tried veggie dumplings, pad Thai, 3 bean chili and tomato soup. All were good.

Awesome service, atmosphere, and food. Was visiting for the weekend and enjoyed it so much we came back again for seconds the next day. Dave, the owner is very friendly as are the rest of the staff.

Open and operating through covid and making delicious coffee and breakfast sandwiches. We were lucky enough to find them open on Wednesday even thought they were listed as closed.

You know when you are traveling through a cute town and come across an adorable local coffee shop and restaurant... and you hope that the food and coffee is as good as it looks? I'll answer.... yes it is..... I will be dreaming about the pecan sticky buns... the best ever... tomato, basil goat cheese quiche- delicious. Stop by- the friendliness is as good as the food. Ps if you happen to stop by on a Sat morning. Outside is a farmers market.. dessert that is sold through "Baked by Chris" is fabulous. I bought a key lime pie that will rival any Florida pie... it was AWESOME. read more

I hate writing a bad review but this place is not worth your time. My husband and I stopped by on our way to the mountain. We ordered one coffee and 2 bagels to go. We were the only customers in the restaurant and our order took 15 minutes. When we arrived at our location to eat, we were surprised to find the bagels soggy and the cream cheese was on the side in tubs. They did not include and napkins or knives to spread the cream cheese. I think that in 15 minutes they should have had the time to throw a knife in the bag or put it onto our bagels. Staff was not friendly and could careless about customer service. Visit another place that cares about your business. read more
