Amber Lane Café & Pub

in my opinion, this is the gold standard for cafe ambiance and coziness. The attention to detail in decor is unmatched. I love the couches and how no two tables are the same. This was my first time back since the rebrand — I can’t say that I noticed any big differences, but they take your order at your table now (instead of the counter) which is a nice touch. We had a royal spanish mocha and cleopatra’s rose mocha; both were delicious and not too sweet, and tasted hand crafted in a way that made it worth the higher price. The chai cake was very good with lots of flavor. Don’t let the lack of gluten in the chai cake turn you off, I never would have guessed that it was gluten free. They serve mostly snacks, desserts, and light meals, not where I would go for a full meal. I do miss when this

A little hidden gem of Northampton. Really glad to see that this place has managed to remain open, likely due to a ton of work from the owners--though they do have seasonal hours which results in lots of closure. They also have a pretty wide variety on their menu and original decor that's engaging and in good taste.

The coffee and waffle quality was average, but the decoration of the place was really nice and unique. The music was terrible; I told them a couple of times, and they didn't do anything about it (even if they did, I didn’t notice). If you're visiting there to spend some time studying or working, you had better have headphones with you.

Beautiful, cozy place like no other in Northampton. As more of the coffee shops in town that actually let you sit down and take your time disappear, this place feels like an oasis. Also, their mocha is bigger AND cheaper than the one they serve at Ana Bandeira Chocolates ;-) I haven't tried the food yet so I can't speak to that, but I definitely recommend stopping in for coffee or a cocktail.

This cute cafe is tucked in an alley behind Main Street. They have a wide variety of coffee drinks, cocktails, and mock tails that are very tasty! I got the Golden milk and loved it. The decor is eccentric and cozy.
