★★★★★ 5.0 Mike Bergin · Oct 2025

The Works is a solid coffee and deli shop that makes for a perfect stop if you're driving through Brattleboro on your way to New Hampshire. The town itself is cute and definitely worth a quick leg stretch to walk around. We stopped in as we walked by, and the experience was great: • Food: The lunch food was good, and the pastries and cookies were excellent. • Amenities: This is a very comfortable place to take a break—they offer free WiFi, a clean bathroom, and plenty of seating. Overall, it's a reliable, clean, and comfortable spot for a lunch break or coffee. I recommend it!

Very cute spot! Right in the center of town. LOVED the Mac’n’Cheese! The small was the perfect size because it was actually quiet large! And the turkey bacon avocado on sourdough was DELICIOUS! Perfect place for lunch!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Lynn Jones · Sep 2025

We have mixed feelings on this place. Several things were great like the size of the cafe and the menu options. However, we had a service issue. When waiting for food and drinks, our names were called when the food was ready but not the drinks. Myself and 2 other customers stood there for over 10 minutes waiting for drinks. Numerous drinks were placed on the counter but they weren't marked nor did the person putting them there say anything. We can't just grab random drinks and hope for the best! I frequent cafés and that was a first. Also, the bacon on my sandwich wasnt fully cooked. I had to pull out rubbery pieces of fat. The bacon also wasn't drained so all grease made my bagel kind of soggy. I did like the information on the wall about how earth friendly they are. All in all, we would

The Works Café is a cute and busy spot. The smoothies were good, but the service was unfriendly. I’ve never seen any of the employees smile or even greet customers. The sandwiches we got were cold and lacked flavor, and the tables were dirty. The coffee was just okay too. Overall, it’s an alright option if you’re in the area, but not something I’d go out of my way for.

Went in on the weekend and they were hopping. Even though they were busy, they took our order quickly and we got our food fast. The wait staff didn't rush us and we're really patient and kind while we figured out what we wanted to eat. The breakfast bagel sandwiches were really tasty. That mean they came out hot and fresh very quickly. Good portions for the price. Good Cafe vibes!
