I went there for the first time today, and it was a wonderful experience! The latte and breakfast I had was delicious, and the atmosphere was wonderful! It's a wonderful spot to go and have a coffee by yourself or with other people. It is also a great atmosphere to do studying if you are a student! I highly recommend going here, and I can't wait to come back again!
Cozy interior, cute town and views, and great coffee!
Super place. Friendly staff. Nice place to stumble across on while in town for business. I'll be back for sure.
Traverse Coffee Co. has the nicest atmosphere, and the most friendly owner and staff. The pastries I've tried were all super yummy. The coffee isn't the best. I've tried their espresso drinks, regular coffee and pour over, and they all have the same unpleasant taste. The last time I visited I had a pour over coffee, and it took them a very long time to make (at least twenty minutes). I make pour over coffee every morning at home, and it doesn't take more than 5 minutes to make. I'm wondering if the unpleasant coffee taste is coming from the water. I don't know if they filter their water or not, but if they're using the city water, that could definitely be the problem. I've noticed the tap water in the Augusta area had a very strong chlorine smell/taste. We won't drink it. We drive to a spring to collect water for our house. Anyway, it's a really nice spot, definitely worth a visit, and I hope their coffee will improve in the future.
Excellent coffee. They execute the basics very well and then build on that with fun specialties. The shop has a cozy, warm vibe that will make you want to stay a while.
Best coffee in central Maine by a huge margin. Super friendly staff.
First time going in and it was/is an awesome atmosphere. I loved the set up and the coffee was DELICIOUS! I was unsure of what to get and the gentleman behind the counter was very knowledgeable. I described the type of drink I like and he made it perfectly. Highly recommend this place!!
Nice place for coffee!
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
Traverse’s Apple Chaider (one of their Fall Specials) is my most favorite drink ever! 🍁❤️
If you havent tried the apple chaider you havent lived! heaven in a cup. each sip is like an entire pastry in your mouth, so delicious.
Very friendly. Good coffee. Back patio is a great spot to work from when it’s nice out.
Stopped in when I saw a sign for "Apple Chaider" but ended up choosing their PSL after they told me the pumpkin mixture is made in-house! Pretty much just pumpkin and milk (oat, for me) which was too tempting to pass up. I have to say, it was the best PSL I have EVER had, and I've had many from big name coffee shops to mom-and-pop shops. Not too sweet and really hit the spot. And the staff? So very nice! The place had a friendly, relaxed vibe but I had my dog waiting outside and couldn't stay. Highly recommend Traverse Coffee!
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
Best coffee in town, and Traverse is a neighborhood meeting spot, comfortable, welcoming and hospitable. Owner Kyle is a master barista so your cappuccino will be a work of art!
Traverse is absolutely wonderful! Delicious drinks and snacks, with some truly unique and fun offerings, and the nicest baristas you'll find anywhere.
The cutest place for a coffee with the best vibes. We stopped for coffee to go but if I lived locally I would never leave. The baristas were so knowledgeable and friendly, the fireplace corner was so cozy, and the porch on the back had the best view. The coffee was so good, too, but honestly the place was so much the quintessential embodiment of what I want a coffee shop to be that I would go back even if it had tasted terrible. Luckily, it was fantastic! There is also a used book store down the street. Traverse Coffee could not be more perfect if it tried.
Great atmosphere. Very comfortable!
I love this coffee shop! The feel is great and the customer service is outstanding! Kyle, the owner, is the best! I would recommend it to anyone visiting Hallowell!
Good place to drink coffee and get work done, good place to drink coffee and chat, good place to drink coffee.
