Amherst Coffee + Bar

I’m definitely one of the biggest coffee snobs around. I’ve been to Amherst Coffee no less than 4,000 times. It offers, consistently, one of the best drip coffees for hundreds of miles around. Their croissants are French grade quality…yummmm. Fantastic lattes, my wife loves their matchas and green teas. Friendliest baristas you’ll ever find. Very cool, hip bar with huge liquor selection. Definitely the place to go.

As a big fan of just "a cup of coffee," Amherst Coffee does filter coffee like no one else in the area. It's always freshly brewed, usually with a choice of light or dark roast in the morning, with medium roast taking over later in the day. I usually make pour over coffee at home, but if I run out of time, I'm always delighted to have Amherst Coffee as a backup plan. (AND they also make great espresso and cocktails, AND the space is great, AND I love their oyster nights.)

I usually come in for a high quality iced coffee. But yesterday I wanted something different. So they made me this delicious iced match. I really enjoyed it! 😉

I won a gift card. And I figured id go and grab a small snack and a drink. There wasn't much left for snacks and they only offer grilled cheese. The lady at the register was nice. But the lack of food is a turn off. And it was cold in there. I ended up giving the $25 card away to a student doing school work.

A delightful place to have a good, strong cup of coffee and relax for a bit. Nice atmosphere. They also serve wine here. Charming, old New England watering hole feel. Usually pretty busy.
