★★★★☆ 4.0 Stephen Priest · Nov 2025

After reading the positive Google Maps reviews and looking for a cafe that opened early and was dine in, I checked this cafe out. I had an enjoyable experience, a good Maple 🍁 Latte and Almond Danish, window 🪟 view 🙈 and great 👍 conversation with the owners about the history of Portsmouth. I learned they opened in August of this year, they own or owned BRGR Bar 🍺, which has great shakes, wanted to be different from other cafes by offering a quick stop 🛑 grocery and tap, no bar 🍻 puns intended, into the hotels🏨 nextdoor. Quiet music 🎵 played, WiFi and charging ports available. The Almond Danish was messy and ended up on my pants 👖, 🎵 let's sing the praises of pants! 🎵 and you can read how not upset I was by it. The powdered sugar just brushed off and I was good 👍 to go! Chocolate croissant

It was a pleasure to dine in at the dwntwn grocer + cafe!! I had a sausage, egg, cheese and veggies sandwich and it was the best I’ve ever tasted! Also, the blueberry muffins melt in your mouth with fresh juicy blueberries and very tasty ingredients.

★★★★★ 5.0 Katie Walsh · Oct 2025

Super convenient place downtown to grab something quickly or sit down and have something prepared. Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful and they were able to accommodate a larger order for our team meeting at the last minute. The convenience of a NYC deli but with an elevated presentation. Love this place!
