Cushman Market & Cafe

The drinks food staff and vibe are all totally on point.

Oh how I miss the old Cushman Cafe. I used to be a regular here because they had great coffee, chai, and a decent lunch and breakfast. The staff used to be awesome too. I understand that the pandemic has caused challenges for many businesses like this, however it is so extremely disappointing seeing the quality of this place go down the tubes. Everything here has become underwhelming. The last straw for me was the last lunch we had. I ordered through their online menu for pick-up and ordered a panini (hot sandwich) and ended up with a cold sandwich with the wrong ingredients. Plus the lettuce was rotten and not washed (had sand) and the bread was stale - completely inedible. The chai was also not very good. We had to throw the whole lunch away. After being a long regular customer I won't be returning any time soon.

kind of a nice neighborhood upscale bodega, eclectic deli, and breakfast and lunch place in the back. the market section has high quality stuff handpicked, and is quite pricey. selected wines and cheeses and yogurts and bread and such canned goods a few necessities, all will not disappoint except if you wanted something cheaper :-) the breakfast and lunch restaurant in the back is really quite good. some vegetarian sandwiches, some sandwiches made with turkey - and that seems to be a pretty common sandwich filling here ( and the turkey is real, self-roasted, unprocessed turkey breast) - and also some classics like BLT etc. the real standout is breakfast. the holla French toast is to die for! thick slices perfectly cooked real maple syrup huge portion. blueberry pancakes made with a good amount of blueberries on the weekends. really yummy breakfast sandwiches made with all kinds of combination of things. including smoked salmon, herbed cream cheese, cheddar, bacon, ham, veggie sausage. great eggs great omelets. they also have bowls called hobo bowls, with kale and potatoes and cheese and meat and such. I think I got to try those they sound intriguing. the lunch sandwiches are also yummy although sometimes a little small sometimes normal size they vary a bit :-) the small selection of grocery is and such seems well thought out but of course it's pretty upscale and pricey. if you're getting just a few items maybe better that then having really lousy stuff to finish your recipe with, true? and you can buy wine and such! there's a nice patio to the side of the restaurant in the Cushman Green is right there and so is the bus. puffers Pond a short walk away what's not to like?

Great market for staples and spirits selection and super fun and interesting items . The cafe has delicious sandwiches and drinks and even has vegan options. Their online ordering during the pandemic is easy and fast , the vibe is still present . It's a great place to enjoy an outdoors moment and take in this unique corner of Amherst.

Cushman is amazing for so many reasons. Firstly being I love getting lunch there and their drinks are incredible! The market is so convenient because it’s right next to the cafe. Overall I love all the delicious options and things Cushman offers!

I love this place. Great sandwiches, if a little greasy due to being grilled with lots of butter. The outdoor patio is so nice as long as it isn't too hot and sunny. They have a few umbrellas but it isn't sufficient to shade all tables.
Everyone is nice. I can only imagine that it is a good place to work, because people seem to stay for years.
Very pleasant. Highly recommended.

My husband and I each had omelettes and the eggs were not done. The roasted potatoes were bland and cold. I have had fast food breakfast that was better than this. On top of it all, it took forever to get this mess and it was expensive garbage. We would never come here again, nor would I recommend it to anyone.

First of all, I love the blueberry pancakes they have here on Sunday.

The service is pretty fast. Servers are friendly for the most part.

Sadly, I'm not that crazy about the rest of the things they have. Plus the vibe is a bit crunchy granola, but I guess if you're into that, then great LOL

Lovely little eco-friendly coffee and sandwich shop. Food is delicious and fresh! I recommend trying a CBD shot which they can add into any of their drinks. The outdoor area is also very nice and family friendly. I appreciated that they are continuing to wear masks inside and clean/disinfect things often.

This place is simply fantastic. The staff are friendly and welcoming, drinks and food are consistently great and the atmosphere is conducive to getting work done or catching up with friends. They are also committed to sourcing food locally and minimizing their environmental impact through compostable materials and a comprehensive recycling and composting system. A cornerstone of the Amherst community and always worth a visit.
