    Chicken and waffles, small bites menu.
    Kim V.

    This place is a small batch coffee roaster and craft brewery. The space was clean and bright. The interior was spacious; there were plenty of seating, a bar, a cafe, and a space for private events. The cafe is only open certain hours. They have an outdoor patio area with seating and plenty of parking. They served food via Lucky Kitchen 13; small bites and tapas were on the menu. If you're not in the mood for beer, the bar offers wine, hard seltzer, and cider. There were non alcoholic drinks as well such as kombucha and soda. There were games that you can bring to the table such as Jenga. When we went on a rainy Saturday afternoon and it was kind of busy. We found seating easily and we found it to be kid friendly. There were games for them to play and we saw other kids there. I decided to do a flight because all their beers sounded great. I tried out the following beers: -Turning Point, Coffee Porter -Princess Peach, Fruited Sour -You think you just fell from a mango tree?, Fruited Sour -Ube-licious, Imperial Stout All were delicious but my favorites were the Ube-licious and Mango beers. We had a good time and we're glad to have visited and tasted a few of the beers. We look forward to going back.

    First time there, would defiantly recommend! Food was delicious, just up par. Very sleek inside and cozy I loved it. Everyone was friendly . I love how they have coffee bar and alcoholic beverage bar on opposite sides. Not much parking though.

    We loved stopping into The Café by New England Coffee Guy based in WeHa roasting company! The owner Jason and his wife Lisa were so sweet and made delicious drinks! This space has a variety of seating available, Wi-Fi (perfect for a WFH spot) and is a fun place to gather with others. If you're not a beer fan, love that you can grab a coffee/tea/etc right across the way. They have a variety of drinks including some delicious ones like the pistachio cold foam (pictured w/an iced chai), white chocolate raspberry, lattes (pictured) cortado, drip coffee and more. There is a food menu available and brunch on the weekends. They'll have some other pastry and menu items soon too!

    My friend and I had a delightful time here on a weekday afternoon. There are about 10-12 beers on tap, but they also highlight ciders and wine that are available. They have a few flight options as well as a build your own. Prices were good. I liked the IPAs and sours the most. Did I mention one side of the space is coffee, and the other side is beer+? I didn't partake on the coffee side, but I like the couch seating. There are some beauty products and soaps available for sale, as well. It's nice that there's some outdoor seating. It's not the most "homey," but it's a nice option and adds to seating space. We happened upon Hildebrand Magic, who was setting up for an event. We got a brief private show, which was a lot of fun. It's great the brewery has some events that can bring in the crowd.

    Pretty chill place for coffee. My vehicle was getting fixed around the area and stopped by. The coffee is pretty good, not super bitter like other shops. Plenty of space to work, free wifi, clean bathrooms, and lots of light. Definitely would come back. Would be nice to have some food or pastries to the business, but I get it, stick with what works. Wil be back

    Visited for brunch on a Sunday. This place has potential but they really missed the mark for our visit. I think they might be trying to do too much and would've liked to see better execution on a few items VS subpar execution on all the things. The area itself is awesome for a large group. Would recommend for a casual visit for beer and games; would not recommend for coffee or food. Decor - So cute. They also have small items for sale from local businesses. Coffee - Iced coffee was ok. More cream than most of the group would have liked but the flavor was decent. The chai latte was all foam, no chai at all. Food - Really disappointed in our plates all around. The French toast looked & tasted eerily similar to the sticks out of the frozen aisle. Also, the "avocado flatbread" is actually guacamole on flatbread (it was avocado mixed with cilantro, jalapeño, and onion). Super disappointing as someone who doesn't like onion or cilantro. I wouldn't have ordered it had the menu mentioned any of those ingredients. Egg sandwich was mostly bread and the bacon was undercooked and pretty fatty. Bacon jam on the chicken and waffles was delicious, with a hint of heat. Brunch tacos had good reviews with our group. Alcohol - Beer was good. They also have a mimosa flight, a fun addition to a brunch experience. Service - Staff was very friendly and attentive. There was only one barista working the coffee area, so there was a slight wait.

    We've been coming here Thursday nights for trivia and love it, but I really don't have anything good to say about their food or beers. And they're no longer dog friendly because they serve really mediocre food from "Mama Nema" which I've had their food truck before and it's NOT this. The vibes here are great, I wish everything else was.

    The roasting side

    I've been to the brewery at WeHa Brewery & Roasting several times, but I've been holding off writing a review until I experienced the Roasting side of it too! WeHa Brewing & Roasting is both a brewery and a coffee shop. I just love this concept! When you walk inside you'll notice the glossy wooden benches, with the bar to the left where the beer is served and the coffee shop to the right. I first started with the Candygram beer. This is exactly my kind of beer, it is juicy, tart, and a refreshing type of sour, with notes of mango and banana. Yum! Laura is a wonderful bartender, she gave us suggestions and chatted with us the whole time! For my next round I got a bit of a controversial beer, Berry S'mores. This is a stout, not what I typically go for but I was intrigued. This is so fascinating how they have so many flavor profiles in one beer. You can taste the chocolate, the graham crackers, the berry, and so much more in between! This one is heavy and strong. I couldn't finish the full glass. I had people calling me 'wild' and 'she's not basic' for drinking this beer! We also got some food. We got the Beef Tacos and the Loaded Jojo Potato Wedges. I'm sorry to report but the food was awful. The tacos were cold, and way, way too salty. The potato wedges were alright, but too hot with the jalapeños. There wasn't much quality in either of the dishes. I came back a few days later to try their coffee. It was very quiet, since it was around 9, and they had just opened. I got a toasted marshmallow latte. It came beautifully presented in proper ceramic dishware. I sat down on their wooden bench and enjoyed. It was creamy, tasty, and warm on this first day of fall. They have the cutest setup, where they support other small businesses, like greeting cards, skin care and other local artists. I really enjoyed my experience at WeHa Brewing & Roasting. They brew delicious beer and roast tasty coffee! The space inside is so beautiful and inviting.

    Came here with a friend to try out the brunch and brew. The place is super cute with a fair amount of seating. Its a mixture of table and bench seating and some tables and chairs. We had the mimosa flight which was nice. Can not speak to how the coffee was on the bear since we only had mimosas while there. The food was good- I had the chicken and waffles. My friend had the potato hash and cinnamon roll. Service was quick and everyone was really friendly. We had a great time. I may come back when I am in the area to try the coffee.

    This place is so cute!! I was a little disappointed the hours posted online was incorrect so I remedied that when I arrived a tad too early. I tried the Dublin Fog Tea Latte and it is so good. If having tea is your jam, I recommend this. Kitchen opens at 2pm, same time as the brews. I can't wait to come back! There's also a brunch menu on the weekends.

    I have not been here for the brews but can attest they make a mighty fine brew. I first stopped in during a marathon day of errands looking for a bit of a pick me up. The space is warm, welcoming and perfect for someone looking to get some work done or catch up with friends. I usually have a go to order but was feeling daring and hard the "baristas choice" . I cannot recall specifically what it was but it put me in the best mood and carried me through the rest of my errands. Another update to this review to come once I try the Brew side of this establishment.

    Sunday afternoon. Small brewery with a good selection. Same building has the roasting company on the right side which is nice. Also a very decent selection for coffee. We did 2 beer flights and a nice burger with fried egg. Service was very good and fast. The ambiance was very casual but the party room was very loud, made it impossible for me and my husband to really relax and enjoy our time together . Outside was too hot so we definitely wanted the air conditioning space. I felt that it's not that romantic but more of hanging out with your friends vibe.

    Half Full Cold Brew and the Sign

    There was a time when WeHa Brewing and Roasting was blowing up my Facebook feed. It wasn't open yet, but they were looking for potential investors. Although I did not invest, the concept impressed me. In theory, it was a great business model. Two businesses would share space and resources. The coffee business would be front and center early in the day. The craft beer business would be the focus later in the day. And there would be some crossover in the middle, when hopefully the people chilled out on beer would get along with the people hopped up on caffeine. I eventually lost track of WeHa B&R, until I noticed Instagram Food Blogger Hartfordeatz's "Story" image of a Stout from WeHa. I researched a little, and was surprised to discover that WeHa B&R had opened about a month earlier without me knowing. I recently visited their building located next to West Hartford's Shield Street Plaza for a morning coffee, and I talked with co-owner and head beer brewer Will about the business. Will is an experienced brewer comfortable working in a number of different styles, including traditional German, New England IPA's and stouts. They're presently pouring drafts on site and filling growlers. They also recently acquired specialty equipment that will enhance their ability to release beer in cans. Stay tuned for future info about can releases. Will's business partner, who was not on site while I was there, leads the coffee roaster side of the business. They roast green coffee on premises rather than use and sell beans roasted by others. They have a coffee shop there that makes and sells beverages, and they also sell bagged coffee beans that they roast. The three bags that were displayed while I was there included two blends - "Blue Back" (a Medium Roast) and the "Center" (a Light Roast). It's kind of cool to picture somebody in Des Moines drinking West Hartford themed blends some day. WeHa also displayed a medium roast Peruvian single origin. I ordered a black cold brew. Since the person in charge of coffee was away when I was there, they weren't quite sure which coffee they used to make the cold brew as they recently have used an Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, and sometimes use a Colombian. I guessed it was the Colombian as the coffee lacked the type of fruit notes that you would normallly taste in an Ethiopian coffee. In any event, the coffee was dark, smooth, nutty and on par with many cold brews offered by other area coffee sellers. I look forward to learning more about the coffee end of the business, and trying the beer when I'm there during beer drinking times. WeHa B&R has ample seating inside if you want to meet or hang out with friends. The atmosphere is laid back. Will told me that they are working towards having an operational kitchen on site, and they've identified the person who will lead that aspect of the business. If I was just grading the coffee, I would grade my experience at the 4 Star Level. However, Will went above and beyond in talking with me about their business, and I'm giving another .5 Star in light of that. So pending my sampling of beer on a future date, I score this review 4.5 Stars, which rounds up to 5 Stars. Best of luck to WeHa Brewing and Roasting.

I loved the aesthetic of the two rooms we were in. Although the decorations were brought by the party for the event, you could still tell the space had great bones.

Doyle works in the financial services industry, but had wanted to open his own brewery for a number of years. A friend introduced him to Dee: a homebrewer with an education background in biomedical science. Atkins, a huge craft beer fan, came on board for the project after Doyle and Dee started getting serious about opening their own brewery. A logo, business plan, and financing were put together. Although the brand was founded in 2015, it took nearly two years to find the right location. In 2017, New Park opened at The Shops at 485 New Park: a former ball bearings factory turned multi-media venue. New Park's mission is to offer consumers the highest quality beverages and experiences that they possibly can. In recent years, the brewery has also begun producing intervention wines, heirloom cider, and sourdough pizza in addition to their artisanal brews. I first visited New Park Brewing in March 2018, when they had just turned a year old. I was very impressed from that first visit and they quickly became one of my Top 5 favorite Connecticut breweries. I recently visited the taproom for the second time ever. I had heard that they started crafting artisanal sourdough pizza pies in recent years and wanted to try them paired up with their excellent beer. I love the whole industrial design vibe that's going on inside the taproom. Since my initial visit, the brewery has also since added an outdoor biergarten and an indoor private event space with a stage and bar (dubbed "The Green Room"). I started off with a short pour of one of my go-tos: "Cloudscape" (IPA). It's delicious, hazy, and full of citrus and tropical fruit notes. For pizza, I ordered the "Soppressata" (red sauce, fior di latte, mozzarella, soppressata, red onion, goat cheese, honey, grana padano) and the "Chef Special" (pecorino cream, fior di latte, mozzarella, arugula, prosciutto, balsamic glaze, grana padano). To pair with them, I ordered a sampler flight which featured "Little Cloud" (IPA), "Steppe" (Barrel-Aged Saison), "Elmwood" (Dry Cider), and "Double Cloud" (Double IPA). Between the stellar brews and the heavenly pizza, I was in pure bliss! There's a reason why New Park is one of my favorite Connecticut breweries; I hope to be back again and again!
