Traverse Coffee Community

We were traveling through and found this gem. We then came back, going 20 minutes out of our way, just to come back again before heading home. The Flying Dutchman is just so good. But we also had cold brew and a red eye. The only downside is it's so good, it was very busy on Saturday- and it's a small place. But I was happy to wait, and I hate waiting. Very nice atmosphere, too.

Have been there a couple of times, and the coffee is, well....meh. The first was a vanilla latte that was mediocre at best. I did drink all of it, though. The last one I had was supposed to be a white chocolate peppermint mocha, which would make you think it will be full of great flavors. Sadly, it tasted neither like white chocolate, coffee, nor peppermint. I'm sorry, but it had a strange, savory taste. I drank about 1/4 of it and gave up. The atmosphere is great, and the service is SUPER friendly, but the coffee was a "no-go" for me. Don't think I'll be returning. :-(

Cozy interior, cute town and views, and great coffee!

We have been going here since traverse first opened. By far our favorite coffee shop. Employees are always super friendly and coffee is delicious. You can tell they take pride in what they do. Worth the stop!

Best coffee in Maine.. stopped by as we were driving thru and stopped in for a coffee break.. excellent coffee...superb service.. friendly staff... definitely on the return list

I would live here if they let me. Best coffee shop in Maine hands down. I want to liquify this place and inject it directly into my arm

Super friendly people, good snacks and tea. They love their coffee here and really know how to work their equipment to produce a proper crema on the espresso. My husband reports it tastes delicious. Wonderful at last to have high quality coffee and espresso drinks in Hallowell. Fun and pleasant. Yes, go there!

I stopped at this great cosy coffee shop early in the am and was wowed! My espresso was great and my cappuccino with the crucial milk-to-espresso-to-foam ratio was perfect. So many places give me a latte instead. The barista was friendly and welcoming.

Cozy, family friendly spot. Beautiful view of the river in the outdoor seating area. Friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable owners. A business that gives back to the community, supporting foster and adoptive families. Such a great local spot. We will definitely make this a regular stop.

Very friendly. Good coffee. Back patio is a great spot to work from when it’s nice out.
