I love Cafe Nero Andover, the staff are always polite and nice. However the level of cleanliness and hygiene has gone significantly downhill in the past year. This week there were flies all over the muffins and it is not the first time I noticed this. You can see the small black flies on the pistachio muffins. This is in full view of the customers where you can order food.
Sunday - 2/12 - Noon. They use to have jugs of Cider to make the Hot Apple Cider. They would then stamp the loyalty card. Now you have to use the individual Cider container that’s in the refrigerator. They use that to make the Hot Apple Cider. I give the barrister my money to pay and along with my loyalty card. She then says oh we don’t stamp for this. I said for the last couple of weeks u have stamped the card. She then gives me an attitude. There are two other coffee shops in walking distance that I will take my business to.
I really wish the drinks were consistent here. Some baristas know exactly what they’re doing and hot drinks come out really good and others seem to not know how to properly steam milk, or what ratios of milk go in what drinks. If you don’t know how to make a hot drink just be honest and I’ll order something iced.
This place is a gem. Discovered it on my most recent visit to Andover when I was looking for "Stubs" (down the street) alternative. Man, what a treasure. Amazing frittata and the sandwiches look fabulous. Best part was the fresh out of the oven pastries and the barista, who patiently answered all my coffee and food questions so I could track my macros. 💪
Amazing coffee. Absolutely delightful coffee shop and coffee with a great, relaxing atmosphere. The line moves extra slow but the coffee is worth it... Likely that was first made evident by the ever present line. I didn't sample any of the food or dessert but it looked wonderful.
Pricing for coffee is extremely reasonable. I wouldn't say 'cheap' but it's definitely less than Starbucks.
As a heads-up... Their sign inside said "nitro cold brew based on availability"... that was proven to be false. They do not carry nitro cold brew.
Such a gem. Got avocado and salmon toast, an oatmilk latte and a slice of lemon cake (not pictured) as a sweet treat. All were delicious but the real star is the ambiance. The rustic shelves lined with gorgeous bound books is perfection. Will definitely return.
Wow, first and most important, the cold brew tastes amazing. Second, the staff was super friendly and energetic. Ha, Possibly because the drink a lot of coffee? Great place to get some work done.
I was having a stressful day but as soon as I walked in I felt the calm and relaxing vibes of this place. The staff was welcoming and the food and drinks were delicious. This is a fantastic place to go read or finish a bit of office work you may have or to simply seat and enjoy a heart warming cup of coffee.
I'm so sad that I'm only in town visiting, because this is the cafe of my dreams. The decor is practically out of an interior design magazine, a great selection of pastries of both the rare & staple variety, breakfast sandwiches and cold ready-to-go drinks for those in a rush, stoneware mugs when you're itching to sit down and stay a while for a Wi-Fi session (and not waste paper), COUCHES & ARMCHAIRS EVERYWHERE, very roomy and a few small booths, and above all, great espresso.

Love the cafe au lait, and my niece loved her decaf. On a chilly, rainy day sitting by the fire with a hot cup of coffee was delightful.
