★★★★★ 5.0 Ari Najman · Dec 2025

Lovely little spot with calm music (Gregory Alan Isakov, folksy & chill vibe). I got the Farmer's Breakfast with no home fries and a Log Cabin Latte. So delicious! Eggs were cooked to perfection as asked (over medium) and the latte was a little sweet for my tastes, but nevertheless very delish!

★★★★★ 5.0 Ira Leeds · Jan 2026

Small, unassuming Café, that punches above its weight in terms of quality of coffee beverages. We got basic drinks but they were well made and delicious. We did not eat during this visit, but the food coming out from the kitchen looked amazing. There’s a lot more going on here that meets the eye.

★★★★★ 5.0 Charles Goldberg · Aug 2025

Once in a blue moon, I walk into a place on impulse and I find that everything, really EVERYTHING, is right about the joint. Storefront, signage graphics, decor, layout, staff, menu and, oh yeah, the food. Fabulous coffee, Sacred Grounds of Sherman, CT. Gotta return for lunch!

★★★★★ 5.0 Tom Johnson-Medland · Nov 2025

This little restaurant in New Milford is the perfect stop to get something to eat and unwind. The breakfasts we had were exceptional. Delicious and made with the freshest ingredients. We had the mushroom and leek omelet with a salad and bacon. The staff were delightful and kind. Everything was served very quickly and the portions were huge. We are saving our coffee and pecan bars for later, but are sure they will be delicious as well. Go out of your way to eat at this “quaint-delectability personified”; you’ll be so glad you did.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Violet Baker · Dec 2025

The coffee was served hot, with a flavor that balanced bitterness and sweetness nicely. The aroma was inviting, filling the space with warmth. The staff was attentive and friendly, making the experience pleasant. The finish carried a richness that stayed after each sip. Overall, a drink that felt worth savoring.
