Cafes near Montville

“My sister in law found this place last night and I am so glad she did! I had a flight of white wines and the price was not bad. We ordered some food and it was SO GOOD, I highly recommend the pork sliders! The staff was very friendly and the place was clean. I can not wait to go back!“

“So simple and easy! We all need to take care of ourselves! Thanks for making my health needs so easy. I am feeling the difference on the day I had my first shake and tea! Beautiful comfortable relaxed environment. Extensive support and advisement anytime you need! Beautiful dogs! Clean and fun store!“

“I came here on a whim and I am so glad I did! The barista (whom I think is an owner) was so approachable, friendly, knowledge, and above all welcoming. His suggestions were on point, and he really thought about what I said before making a suggestion.The coffee: salted caramel iced coffee with a little cream... Chef's kiss!I was going to take my coffee and muffins to go but the lure of nerd books, comfy couches, and chill music drew me in.i can't remember the last time I actually sat and drank coffee in a coffee shop, but I couldn't pass this opportunity up!I honestly don't write reviews but I feel the need to let others know how great this place is! I will most definitely be back!Parking: This is a strip mall that use to be a school. Parking is where the busses use to line up. Worse case there is more parking across the street, and there are crosswalks.Kid-friendliness: There are some kids toys in the corner, and books for adults too. The couches are low and comfortable.“

“Today my friend and I spent many hours at the bakery. It’s was a heartwarming experience for both of us since we both are parents to children with special needs. As parents I think it’s normal for us to worry about the future of our children, today we got a peek of the opportunities that are out there and it was beautiful! Thank you for showing us that there are people who love and care for those who may need a little help or guidance outside of their families. Not only way it a friendly environment but the food and coffee is amazing and I would recommend La Stella’s to anyone!!“

“The food at the village cafe is incredibly good. The meals are delicious and made with real ingredients. The owners and staff are always welcoming and go out of their way to accommodate customers. I have been going there since they opened and everything is always kept meticulously clean.“

“This place speaks for itself upon walking in. Very friendly, very cozy and very helpful. My sister and I came in today and got two sandwiches each. We both got the bacon egg and cheese (one on multigrain and the other on a bagel). The blue and the East beats west with a soup on the side. We wanted to sample how the food is here. The guy at the counter was very sweet and the food took maybe 15 minutes to come out despite all tables being full. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good time to sit down and have a good meal with someone“

“What a great deli! I’ve been driving past this area for a long time and never knew what a gem this place was. Stopped in for a quick bite before going to the train station. Friendly service, tons of food options, huge portions, and most importantly, delicious sandwiches. Had an Italian with everything on it and a pastrami with mustard, onions, and Swiss cheese. These were 1/2 grinders and we were stuffed! Will definitely be coming here more often.“

“Great smoothie options! I have been coming here for over two years now. I always love to try their seasonal menu options. They have a walk up window or you can go inside the shop. You can order a head on their app. They have a punch card that will give you a free smoothie with ten punches.“

“We have been coming to Muddy Waters Cafe for last couple of years every Sunday. The atmosphere is lively ( college & Coast Guard students ) and although usually crowded, the line moves quickly. Great egg sandwiches on fresh bagels, pastries, sandwiches and salads. Tomato soup is delicious. The back deck is wonderful to watch activity in the harbor and Amtrack trains. Hopefully it will reopen soon after a fire in their basement . The employees are friendly and very efficient. Totally recommend if in New London.“

“Was very busy in the a.m. due to the St. Patrick’s Day parade ☘️ but barista was calm & very pleasant despite the long line. Great artsy vibe for all ages. Chai Latte was perfectly made! Worth stopping in if you’re passing through the area!Parking: Parking was difficult due to the parade but there is parking at a grocery store a short distance away.Kid-friendliness: Very child friendly.“

“Me and my family have been going here for generations, always a great atmosphere and great local service. I heard they have the go ahead to bring the gas pumps back that'd be awesome! They could even keep the same price per gallon from years back ;)“

“Went somewhere new for date night and Manana Cafe did not disappoint! Started with the homemade tortilla chips and guacamole, which was better than we’ve ever tried elsewhere..fresh fried chips were amazing! I had the mole poblano con pollo and hubby had cochinita pibil (shredded pork with citrus and tortillas). Both were delicious, authentic and fresh. We also tried a spicy margarita and the cinnamon honey margarita and enjoyed both. Service was friendly and sweet and we were checked on often but not invasively. Was a little pricey but was to be expected for the quality and authenticity. It was a win for us, 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“From the time you walk in the doors, you feel good about your decision to eat there.....huge selection of great tasting food, great service, decent sized portions and a great atmosphere is what you can expect from this place....go once, you'll be back!“
