Really great coffee shop. If you’re visiting Nantucket definitely come here! Changed my order with no problem at all since I changed my mind on my coffee and wanted a latte instead. Definitely recommend!

The best true cafe on Nantucket. The drinks punch above their weight thanks to the skilled baristas. I've never seen such great espresso drinks come from a Rancilio. The drinks could be elevated by a more sophisticated machine like a la Marzocco, but it's hardly something noticeable. The indoor space is cozy and offers great wifi. The outdoor space in the back is underutilized but still quite beautiful.

Very convenient and cute shop. Got a Carmel macchiato and a blueberry muffin and they're the best ones I've ever had! The foam on the top even made a heart! Super polite staff too. Not bad prices. It's a thousand times better than Starbucks (:

Loved it. We went twice. Coffee is excellent. The staff is friendly. The atmosphere is warm and cozy. The book in the history of coffee was very interesting.......

Coffee is wonderful and service swift and friendly. Missing the bowl of water for dogs and the dog treats under new ownership. Feels like they’re missing the needs and vibes of their customers. Disappointing.

Great coffee, great service. Offered ceramic cups, because we were ordering coffee 'for here'. They asked what kind of milk to foam for my latte, and the end result was delicious. I am SO glad this place isn't a Starbucks - the experience and ambiance and service here was wonderful.

We stopped in and got a traditional cappuccino and a latte— both with oat milk. Drinks were very well made! Attentive staff and relaxing environment. Great experience. We would definitely recommend!

this is THE spot to get your wifi and coffee fix! It's fun and fresh and has great energy... not to mention the owners are some of the sweetest and most hospitable people on the island!! The iced coffee is divine, the "bark bar" outside is such a cool idea for hydrating your pups, and they have a really cool retail section in the cafe as well! A MUST GO for all those on Nantucket!

This is a great place. Obviously not the cheapest coffee on island (s/o to Cumberland farms) but say one morning I want to treat myself to some seriously good coffee I always go to handlebar. I usually get a cappuccino if it’s cold and a iced or minty iced nitro when it’s hot. Free wi-if is always a plus. Also they have those biodegradable straws. Not as good of a drinking experience with those but rather that than throwing more plastic into the ocean.
Overall would recommend to a friend.

My favorite coffee stop on ACK. SBUX wished they were as cool. Cup of Sunshine (try it dirty) is a must. Do wish they offered coconut milk as an option. Love it just the same.
