What People Are Saying
from Google"We were excited to have breakfast and coffee at this coffee shop, but our overall experience was disappointing. The coffee was great, a highlight among the items we tried. However, their signature Old Town Sandwich did not have tomato, as they had run out, and the sandwich was mediocre. The avocado toast was also unremarkable, and while the blueberry scone was decent, the strawberry cream cheese Danish left much to be desired. This coffee shop has great potential; however, it was not tidy or clean during our visit. The entrance door had numerous fingerprints, and the interior could use some cleaning. To make the space more inviting, the high ceiling could be enhanced with hanging plants, and potted plants could be placed inside the premises to add some greenery. Additionally, the “luxury” Dubai chocolate was far from luxurious. We ordered the pistachio Dubai chocolate, which was small, poorly made, and didn’t contain any pistachios. The $9.50 price felt like a complete rip-off. Ultimately, we will not return to this coffee shop and do not recommend it."
"I'm really not sure why anyone would give this any less than 5 stars. I wish I could give it more! I am visiting from New Jersey for a ballet intensive that my daughter is attending, and I happened upon this little coffee shop, attached to an ice cream parlor. I thought for sure I'd get ice cream at some point, but I haven't yet. I HAVE been to this coffee shop every day since I found it, though! I have tried almost every flavor on the menu, and the one I think I loved the most was Honey lavender oat milk latte. I was a bit afraid at first, but it did not taste like a bath or too floral. Just a nice refreshing coffee! The employees are so friendly, the atmosphere is conducive to work, but also to socializing, since there is a giant table in the middle, bar stools on the sides or couch type chairs in the front. I honestly am usually a whatever type coffee gal, or a chain coffee is fine person, but this place is somewhere I'd come every day if I lived here. I'm so sad I can't take this experience home with me!"
"Type of place that lists things like “flat white” on the menu but you get a milk-forward 12 oz latte in a to go cup when you order it. Lots of syrup flavors available, “cookie butter” didn’t really taste like anything specific. Had the interesting experience of seeing a woman order a breakfast burrito without potatoes. The employee accepted the order and said it would be at least five minutes and proceeded to scoop scrambled eggs with potatoes out of a to go container into a tortilla and then proceeded to pick the potatoes out by hand until the customer indicated she didn’t have time for that and had to go."
"The baristas were super friendly and helped me pick a drink since I couldn’t decide. I went with the hot pumpkin chai latte and a maple sausage and egg burrito, and my husband got the salted caramel latte. The food was fresh and tasty, and I loved that the seasonal drinks weren’t overly sweet — just perfectly balanced. Everything was delicious, and we’ll definitely be back!"
"Old Town Coffee is a daily must visit! The breakfast food is top tier - my personal favorite are the breakfast burritos, Old Town Sandwich or BLT on croissant. The bacon is legit bacon not Starbucks microwave version. The peppers and onions on the burritos are homemade. The coffee is great & the options are endless if you’re interested in flavors. It is a family owned small business so the service and warmth is unbeatable!"
