★★★★★ 5.0 Rebecca Dandeneau · Oct 2025

I absolutely cannot say enough great things about this spot. Was picking up food for myself and coworkers, and it was ready as soon as I arrived. The portions are generous for what you pay, and the owners do not skimp on the meat at all, even for their tacos. I had the Italian Panino and it was generously packed with the prosciutto and other meats. The flavor with the relish added a nice tang. The street corn salad is also to die for with bacon and corn! Both of my coworkers raved about the soups and their meals, as well. Highly recommend this place to any and all. You do not want to miss out!

The food here is *stellar* and the owners and staff are just the best. The portion sizes are almost absurdly huge and everything was fresh, hot, and creatively prepared. I hosted a training in the building and they handled lunch takeout for our 35 attendees with apparent ease. I can't say enough about how much I love this little hidden cafe. 😊 PS I can personally recommend the sausage and broccoli rabe sandwich, the hummus plate, and the butternut soup, but our attendees raved about it all.

I had the succotash taco for lunch today and loved the blend of Southwest with Mexico and hint of Native American flavors. The butternut was simply delicious and the corn tasted like summer. Can’t wait to try more!! And yes, it’s hidden in the magical Hilliard Mills of Manchester. Highly recommend!!

★★★★★ 5.0 David Dion · Nov 2025

Great casual easy vibe place- Ordered food for a small gathering at my house for 12 people. I ordered a number of different types tacos as well as the street corn salad. Everything was so fresh and delicious. They are not traditional tacos per se, but so many savory and interesting combinations. Everyone left happy and full! My wife and I will definately be exploring more of this menu in the near future.

Soo good! I ordered The Full Vermonty (turkey / smoked cheddar / apple / arugula) for myself and a Pressed Cubano ( mojo pork / ham / Swiss / Dijon / pickles) for my husband. Both sandwiches tasted amazing! The ingredients are balanced, the quality is excellent, and the bread is toasted and crisped to perfection! The bread really brings the sandwiches together. Each bite was delicious and satisfying.
