Great staff and clever, high quality, well-made food. It's where locals go.
Actual chai tea. Most delicious chai tea I've had since I left Boston. Very well balanced spice level. Great with oatmilk. Didn't get food but it looked and smelled great.
The Porch recently catered an event for our organization. The food was excellent, high quality and wholesome, and the presentation was superb. Working with Gretchen was an absolute pleasure. She was flexible and accommodating. I highly recommend The Porch for your catering needs.
Happy to have found this place that makes great coffee + food. My daughter loves the chai tea & I love their coffee. The scones and mixed berry crumble bars are great too . And have had a breakfast burrito which was delicious.
Gretchen and her team were amazing! They were easy to work with, and Gretchen was extremely accommodating for a guest that had several allergies. We got so many compliments about how fantastic the food was! I highly recommend if you are planning a wedding.
Best omelette we have ever had!!! Will definitely be back when we visit again. So fresh and friendly staff!
4/23 The food is still excellent, but the value has gone down. The Cobb salad now comes in the container that used to be a half salad, and the price has gone up. Still very tasty, but I no longer think it’s worth it. — The difference between a good place and a great one is their response to a mistake. Everyone makes them occasionally, let he who is without sin and all that. I won’t go into the details, but a recent mistake was handled so well, I almost felt bad for mentioning it! The food is fantastic, and the people are wonderful to deal with!
We had The Porch cater a party for 22 at our house this weekend, and it was great. The food was delicious and so well seasoned. People were getting seconds, and are still talking about the food. I will definitely use them again!!
After reading the reviews, we decided to give this place a go for the start of our week long road trip. The staff were friendly and the menu was straight forward. My daughter and I found the food though to be a bit more simplified than expected. It was not bad, not even remotely but, it also didn't blow our socks off. By the steady stream of customers, I don't think this place will have any trouble keeping it going. Food is very subjective and you really need to check it out for yourself and make your own decision. It may become your favorite place.
We hired The Porch to cater our wedding at the Inn at Manchester and it was 100% the RIGHT CHOICE. Many people told us it was the best wedding food that they had ever had. We knew we would have great food, but once the day came, they blew my expectations out of the water. We had a winter wedding and I asked if they could provide hot chocolate and they provided a hot chocolate bar with vegan hot chocolate and various treats to add to your hot chocolate, like peppermint sticks, peeps, whipped cream, marshmallows, etc.! It was a huge hit. They were incredibly attentive to providing an unbelievable amount of variations and options to create an inclusive menu for all dietary preferences and restrictions. We had a buffet and they had cute chalkboards, done by a local artist describing the offerings and every staff member was so communicative and helpful. They helped replenish our desserts and provided full service in every way. The branzino fish and the asparagus and mushroom pasta were my personal favorites. Gretchen was great to communicate with from start to finish and the team at the Porch is just A+ all around. We did go in to eat lunch at their cafe once to meet with Gretchen and it was also top notch!
Food is amazing… nice selection seasoned well … nice atmosphere… great customer service
We try this Cafe for first time and the sandwich we order were delicious and they had my favorite tea Fast order in and out enough room for everyone I notice Alot of people preferred takeout and very popular cafe Would recommend it to my friend's and family
Incredible food, drinks & service! Everyone we interacted with was extremely friendly. My husband & I both got our food fast & everything tasted delicious. One of the staff offered to deliver our food to our table even though it comes up at the counter. Two different staff members checked in with us to see how our food came out. I got the Vietnamese Chicken Salad & a Mint Matcha (which was a drink special) & my husband got the Bahn Mi Sandwich & a hibiscus lemonade. I’m still thinking about my salad hours later, I wish I could eat it again for the first time. Next time we are in the area we will be sure to stop in again!
Delicious food, best egg sandwich in area and I raise my own chickens so I know good eggs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
We order 2 sandwiches for lunch and after 45 minutes they still hadn’t start working on it. When asked about the status of my order they said it will take longer if you ask. One of the employees was very disrespectful. We ended up canceling our order.
Pound for pound the BEST food and service in Brattleboro. Consistency and friendliness will get you everywhere. Thank you.
A lot of hype for this place but it fell short of expectations. Great staff. We order several different sandwiches and they were mediocre at best.
Planning a wedding is full of jitters. The porch cafe was one of the catering services we where able to choose from that our venue gave us. Gretchen has been an angel in disguise! She has worked with me tremendously to set up a tasting with myself, Fiance, made of honor and best man. The service we received was outstanding. Not to mention we had the restaurant to ourselves! The best way I could describe the food was mouth watering. Gretchen is not only an amazing, caring and thoughtful person but she is also very skilled in cooking. Planning a wedding for the first time; I have found myself with many questions. She has not hesitated to answer any of them with gratitude. There was not one thing on our wedding menu that was not good. To be honest good is an understatement. I could not recommend her restaurant enough if you want a quick delicious bite to eat or to cater your event! I can not wait to see the final product at our wedding. I’m sure I will not be disappointed.
Generous portions. I had the Beet the Chills Breakfast Bowl. SO good! Others in our party had omelets and the classic breakfast plate - all of us loved our meals and we will definitely return the next time we are in Brattleboro
Amazing fresh scratch food and great service… stumbled on this hidden gem by accident and highly recommend… closed weekends and nights but def make the trip… the blonde at the register/ server outstanding service…
