Very good coffee and tea drinks in a scenic and cozy corner of Acton. Service was very quick and friendly. There are only a few spaces to eat indoors, but there is a good amount of outdoor seating. Their current indoor mask policy is that you can only take it off when you are eating and drinking. You have to put it back on if you converse at all in between sips or bites.

Went here for the fist time today and it was fantastic... great atmosphere (and great outdoor seating). I got a cappuccino with a cinnamon roll... my wife got a latte and scone... it was all very fresh and delicious...we will be regulars here from now on.

For someone who cant drink caffeine but loves the taste of coffee, they have delicious decaf coffee and tea options. Large menu to choose from, local baked goods for sale there as well - love the seasonal creations!

My favorite coffee place around and one of my favorite local businesses! I appreciate that safety is a top priority here. The service is always excellent with the friendliest people. The espresso here is amazing and I appreciate the multiple alternative milk offerings. Id recommend an iced mocha with oat milk - my absolute favorite! I love that the lids for iced drinks dont require straws.

First time there. As soon as I entered I could tell the coffee would be good from the smell of it! I wasnt disappointed. Excellent coffee. I had a latte and it was one of the best I had in a long time. Ill come back for sure!

Good coffee drinks, but theyve been out of most baked goods both times Ive visited - this last time there was only cookies and granola bars, which sadly isnt much of a breakfast.

First impressions are important. I didn’t get a comforting feeling visiting. Not even a pleasant greeting. Just do you have a mask. I had a shield on. I have a breathing difficulty, and have to breath through either my nose of mouth. My own doctor suggested a shield. The CDC changes the guidelines daily. Why I don’t know. But not even a mask will protect you it just helps in a way of preventing it from spreading. Key point. I won’t be back. Though the coffee was good the service is what keeps customers coming as well.

I love grabbing a cup of coffee at Acton Coffee. The folks behind the counter are cheerful and helpful. Theyve a great selection of coffees and teas, plus some really nice baked goods. On a cold winters day its always toasty warm and relaxed.My only (minor) complaint is that seating is limited -- probably to about 30 people -- which means you may have to order and leave. If nothing else its a sign that Im not the only one that likes the place. They do have free wifi and theres parking directly outside, or under the building theyre located in.FYI, theres a Little Free Library about 100 yards to the left of the entrance (see my photo). So if youre looking for something to read you might find it there. It was put up by Unicorn Books, which is about 300 yards away from the Acton Coffee House, again over to the left as youre facing the coffee house.

I havent been leaving the house much at all due to COVID but was in desperate need of caffeine to fuel an MBA paper I was writing so I went down the street to give this place a try (Im new to town). I heard about Acton Coffee House when it was featured on WCVBs Chronicle. The shop is very clean and they have done a good job with signage to guide social distancing. This was also one of the best cups of coffee I have ever had--so much so I might just turn into a daily coffee drinker again! Happiness in a cup!

They continue to provide awesome caffeinated drinks and yummy treats. Only two places to sit inside given current restrictions means they are mostly a take-out place, except in warm weather when they share many outdoor tables with True West.

Review №21

Yesterday order a Mango Ginger Honey smoothie but it tasted like banana. Asked the girl and the girl said it had banana inside because they couldnt write down all the ingredients. I told her that I am allergic to bananas and she said ohh..... End up my husband finished it. Lucky, I only took a sip and had rashes over both arms for the night.No E. R. visited

Review №22

This place is really cute and the people are nice. But the coffee is honestly awful. We unfortunately had to throw away our drinks after 2 sips and went back I find other coffee.Edit: Thank you to the owner for writing back. We visited at 9:21am on Saturday 10/10. We each got a cortado. The coffee tasted either overroasted or over extracted. While more milk would have certainly helped the bitterness, we think there may have been something off with the coffee. Appreciate you looking into this.

The place is not really recovering from COVID. Very limited menu & seating. Folks without masks. The coffee and pastries are as good as ever, but kind of hard to have lunch with no real food options

Review №24

Great atmosphere, super friendly staff, good pastries, indoor and outdoor seating, sunny and bright. Only negative is the coffee is too bitter for my tastes. But they have great tea and they foam a mean milk. Nice and frothy!

Excellent coffee with a different special coffee every day. All the usual coffee and tea related selections and then some. Prices are very reasonable. The staff is friendly and helpful... and no waiting forever like at the green place. Seating can be full during busy times as its a popular local place - outside seating is great in the warmer months.

The wine list is very good and extensive.

Review №29

The cup of coffee you get is great. Part of that is that the coffee itself is good, but the real key seems to be that the baristas are diligent and very well trained. Other places with similar coffee quality produce inferior, or at least inconsistent cups. Here, whatever your drink is, you get a really quality cup, every time. I hope that makes sense.

Love this place. Nice, bright ambience with all the windows. Good tunes. Friendly, attentive service. Make a great, dark roast and cappuccino. Delicious pastries and bagels. Nice place for me to get some work done as well. The place and the people very white, but the coffee is very black.

One of the best coffee shops. Very good coffee, smoothie, pleasant ambiance. I visit this place at least once a week, have been visiting for about a year now, never walked out disappointed. Closes slightly early though, but no complaints. Absolutely love this place.

Decided to try this place because I was in the town. Came here at 8am and there was plenty of parking. The place is modern and clean. The staff were very perky. I got a cappuccino with Carmel and a bagel. Both were very good and the process were fair. Would come again.

A great coffee house, the coffee drinks are really excellent. They also have a great selection of loose leaf teas, including blooming tea which I have never seen before. Alas, the place is afflicted by the wifi phenom, with people sitting down with their laptops for a few hours and seating is limited-- which sucks...wish the management would consider shutting off the wifi because I see the same people occupying the same seats every day.

One of the better coffee places in the area. Their espresso is pretty good and their baristas actually know what they are doing. Worth it if in you are in the area but it isnt the type of place I would go out of my way for.

Cashier behind the bar was very rude. Coffee was also served way too hot which not only makes it hard to hold, but ruined the flavor.Shame, we really wanted to like this place as its close to work.

They have the best coffee ever!But by 10 a.m. they have no blueberry muffins left. Only bran muffins and all thehealthy ones. We tell them every time we go and they always say, sorry, we sold out of them. Theyre open all day and they sell out by 10am?

Great coffee, parking is plenty, and the coffeetreat slingers are welcoming and fun to chat with. Theres even nice outside tables and a park across the street. Best if all, theres a good mix of regulars instead of the standard coffeehouse vampire set (dont worry: its okay: Im pretty vampy, myself).

Review №72

Delicious Iced Latte with Almond milk. Lemon biscotti was a bit stale. It was my first visit at the new location. Needs more seating for singles. Many single patrons had taken over [camped out at] tables set up for 2-3 people. Some coffee shops utilize long tables for communal seating.
