Love the seasonal specials of coffee, boba, their support of local products, and the variety to pick from. I tried a seasonal raspberry white mocha and it did not disappoint. They have lots of cozy seating in either low rocking chairs, couches, or big tables for large groups. Unless you’re a fan of window sitting, like me. They have that too. Love the atmosphere and the coffee smell that fills the room. They’re also one door away from a lovely Bennington bookshop!
Been in here a few times since it opened. Every time the barista has been unfriendly and barks at me as if they've had a really bad day and I'm bothering them for existing. (I was the only one ordering so they were not busy) My fancy coffee drinks were just ok; my matcha latte had spoiled milk in it! I'm not going back, and dearly miss the cluttered, sort of grungy/well lived-in coffee shop that used to be next door, with nice people and a cozy atmosphere.
Outstanding coffee, prepared by a friendly and helpful staff. Eclectic setting, imaginatively decorated. If you love excellent coffee, don't miss this place!
It’s great to have a coffee shop in Bennington, but the baristas could use some more training. Also the quality of the beans could be better. A2 roasters has amazing beans and could probably teach the staff how to make better drinks.
Can not give enough stars. Place is great, staff very friendly, amazing coffee and specialty drinks. Fun stuff there like concerts, a running group on Sunday, chess boards.
World-class espresso pulls. Friendly and efficient service.
The girl at the register didn't acknowledge us. She never smiled or said thank you and kept checking her phone. The other girl making the drinks was friendly. Not really the experience I was thinking of.
Got a coffee and it was amazing!
Great atmosphere and the coffee was black core yum yum and they do all the sugary drinkies did the kids and whatnot. They also do live music, have interesting art on the wall, and were v pleasant. Bennington's best coffee place atm by far.
Was my 1st time today at the coffee bar. Was crowded at 10.45. Has a couch, 2 seater bar tables, and a 8 person table. Plus a stage for music. Very nice place. They serve Mocha Joe's coffee n lattes, espresso, flavor drinks, etc. Hot or cold. Was good but thought the prices were really high.
Nice atmosphere and friendly employees!
Time for some customer service training! My family and I visit The Coffee Bar at least once a week for the good coffee and though the manager is never cheery the gentleman pick up where she lacks with their smiles, sense of humor and fantastic customer service. This morning, I asked for a chai latte and I must have forgotten to say ice. I was served a hot latte and I apologized because I wanted ice. Kate (the manager) insisted that I didn't tell her ice. I apologized again and asked for ice. She went to the back for what I thought was a missing ingredient as I waited ten minutes, she didn't return. After waiting, I yelled from the front several times, "excuse me" getting no response. Finally I left my hot latte and began to leave when I noticed she came back out. I went back inside to ask where she went because I thought she was re-making my drink. She continued to say, "you didn't say ice when you ordered." Instead of arguing with a person that didn't understand customer service, I asked for my money back. She stated she couldn't refund me. FINALLY she said she would remake my drink (with an eye-roll) but the look on her face told me I better not. I left my coffee and my footsteps there for the last time, I will not be returning after that kind of service. People such as Kate, are the employees that push locals away and close the doors to a very cute establishment. My recommendation is get that girl some management training or hire a new manager or your doors will be closed before you know it. Sad to say, my family and I will not be returning and word of mouth gets around quickly in a small town. Off to Starbucks to add a little joy back into my day!
Hire people who speak and greet! We left because the guy stared at us and then his ph. Too bad. Cool vibe otherwise

Fun downtown coffee spot. Iced chai latte and iced coffee were good. Banana nut muffin was warmed up and delicious. Cool comfortable vibe inside.
Great coffee and baked goods. Relaxing atmosphere and fast wifi. Great place to meet friends or get some work done virtually.
