A truly excellent coffee shop with great food and even better coffee. This is definitely a must stop and we always enjoy coming here. Good baked goods, really good breakfast sandwiches and savory items.

Our drinks tasted delicious, and we were so impressed with how fast they came out! Our toddler enjoyed the cinnamon sugar donut too. Enjoyed the flowers on the table, because I love tulips!

We enjoyed our visit here! The coffee was excellent, and we were very impressed with the fast production of drinks. The staff was very kind especially with our talkative toddler! The donuts were yummy too. We love the post and beam look, though it seemed rather dark on the back part of the shop! Would definitely come again!

The coffee shop that ruined all other coffee shops and coffee for us. We live local and start out every weekend day here. Delicious sandwiches, pastries, etc. 10/10. There’s nothing better!

Great coffee, I had the iced pumpkin spice latte which was better than Starbucks - I also love the little ice cubes. I would also recommend the pistachio affogato, my it has a really nice flavor (fresh, almondy, - almost as good as Italy)! This is a gem I found and I will be coming back!!

If you love coffee, truly, then Ashlawn is the destination. The best coffee in CT (along with Daybreak) and also that I remember having recently - and consistently it is outstanding. The lox they have and their bagels are also the most delicious I have had in CT. The cafe is heartwarming in the truest most unsentimental sense of the word. Go to Ashlawn. Come for the coffee, stay for the beach.
