Delicious coffee, brewed by friendly baristas who know exactly what theyre doing. Good conversation, and good snacks, too. What more could ya want?

I spent an entire day here when I had no AC and my apartment was too hot. It’s such a wonderful space to spend time in with great drinks and staff. There’s a great mix of seating - places to work on laptops, couches, as well as some outdoor space. This all being said, the pastries / baked goods are only okay, but to me the space and drinks make up for that.

Great spot for lounging, hanging out, getting work done, large variety of outdoor/indoor seating. Friendly staff, deliscious pasteries, and beverages. Very pleasant atmosphere :)

Enjoyed a pumpkin spice latte today and a homemade fig bar. Used to have a nicer backyard to sit in but about six trees were recently cut down.... not the fault of this business really since its due to the city working on a trail.

Super cute, super cozy, super relaxing spot to get a latte, with vegan options. We got an oatmilk latte (it was coincidentally my birthday) and I spilled the whole thing on myself by accident, the table, floor, chair (outside) and they were nice enough to make me a new one so I appreciated that. The latte was creamy and delicious. The Vegan Blueberry Muffin was soft and decadent. The Vegan Cinnamon Roll was great too, a little chewier as the dough is supposed to be and nicely glazed. Would definitely come here again to hang out and coffee!

Love the variety of coffee and food offerings. The Nutella latte is a favorite. That they have alcoholic beverages is wonderful to sit outside and enjoy too. It is an eclectic institution of the Elm City that is relaxing yet get for business also. Check it out.

Never disappointed with an afternoon boost from (in my opinion the best tasting Koffee? House in New Haven. Always worth a visit!

Wonderful little niche spot for great coffee and a nice vibe. The workers are very nice and the inside is cozy and welcoming. Coffee is great, but the portion sizes are a tad small for the price which is the sole reason I cannot give Koffee? 5 stars.

Great coffee, tasty food, and wonderful atmosphere! Theres a reason its so popular!

Liked the coffee ☕️, interior and the back yard full of the sunlight. Amount of desk lamps telling the story of one of the favorite and comfy places for locals.

When theyve gotten my order correct the food and drinks were great! I ordered in person and the order was fine, but both times I ordered ahead online the orders were wrong... great veg sandwich options.

Great little place to relax and chill. What I liked most was the coffee cocktails. Very off the track place, but if you can find it, youll love it. Free WiFi and I love the outside. Will be coming back for sure when Im in town.

The staff is very nice and knowledgeable. I was very excited when I first came here because I could tell it was 2nd wave which is my personal preference for coffee (and the presentation/aesthetic that goes with it). This is an ok location for that style of coffee roasting/preparation.

The coffee is always good and they have coffee cocktails as well.

Good coffee. Loved the College atmosphere. You see a lot of students doing they work. Its a chill environment. Would definitely go again.

I have been to Koffee so many times over the last 3 years since I moved to New Haven. They make excellent coffee, have great espresso drinks, and their baked goods are wonderful.

Had a great time working on my schedule here. They have all the nice looking food that they offer, which is important for cafes around Yale. But they dont have ac which is a little rough for the summer. Nice environment, staff makes me feel little rushy. Overall its a nice place to hang with few friends since they dont have large place for dining, but cozy enough!

Super friendly staff! I ordered the ginger snap with spiced chai & nutmeg. Highly recommend 🙌🏽🙌🏽Beautiful ambience, do yourself a favor and just go- stop reading these reviews 😉

Cute coffee shop. I got a mango smoothie and it was alright.

Very cozy and nice place to work.Comfortable sofa and the lights help me focus on my work.I had a Irish coffee and espresso martiniThese were good and reasonable price (~7USD)

The staff here is amazing, Beckett is my favorite!

Great coffee and atmosphere. Good place to work

Best coffee shop in New Haven. Nicest staff ever.

Muffins and Chai tea latte amazing.

Unfortunately, the pastry/baked goods selection is terribly dry/chalky, across the board. :( Atmosphere/drinks are okay though.

Excellent service, great coffee! Lavender lemonade is my absolute favorite. My new favorite shop. Highly recommend!

The baristas are wonderfully nice and professional! I asked for a weird coffeemaking utensil for a photo shoot and they lent us two, no questions asked. They are so understanding of our little idiosyncrasies :)

Great coffee shop! Good coffee and delicious coffee cocktails. A true New Haven / Yale mainstay

I had a Iced Latte & a coconut banana muffinmit was really good

Very pricy but the coffee is good.

Interesting coffee place packed with students which is understandable given its proximity to Yale. Had just plain black coffee which was good. Go here for ambiance. Coffee tastes good too.

We ordered hot Mocha, they served us hot cappuchino.If you like Starbucks, please dont waste money here. They are nowhere near Starbucks, though the price of Mocha is at par with Starbucks.Referred by a friend, we went there to get the alcohol-coffee blends. But age proof was required, though the friend confirmed that age proof was not required. Dont know why such discrimination happened with us. Very disappointed that we couldnt try the alcohol-coffee blends.

Incredibly slow preparation times - avoid if you’re in a hurry 🐌

The chai latte here is amazing! Such a cozy environment, and the employees are really friendly.

Had a relaxing experience with a cup of bugle boy in their patio, it was a great tasting coffee, loves the touch of coconut with a hint of vanilla.

Very nice place with a friendly staff.

Koffee is a great spot when you need to study, work, meet friends or just read a book. The coffee shop has a great bohemian vibe, awesome wifi and delicious coffee and food. I keep coming back when Im in town.

Not so much of a Hidden Jem, its located walking distance from Yale University where you can spot students, professors chilling and relaxing ... however you can also hear students complaining about select subjects or professors ;)We were able to snag seats at a perfect location but good luck finding a seat here as it can get crowded real fast ...They have food here however very limited quantity and more like snacks and finger foods : Salads looked ok, had various bagles, scones, sandwiches, saw some cookies and croissants as well ...I had the Nutella latte with whip cream, it was delicious !!! However I was told that chai latte (masala) was quiet horrible.I would highly recommend this place ... Cozy spot with great drinks :)

Omg so gewd

Delightful local coffee shop. Decent selection of snacks, great coffee, super powerful cold brew, good chai, friendly and helpful staff. Micro muffins (pictured) are a nice treat.

Great coffee shop vibe...food is good so are the drinks. Service is on point.

One of the best local coffee houses I have been to. The jalapeño cheddar scones, mocha, Nutella Latte are the best. tried a coffee cocktail during after hours, Mocha tan. brilliant drink. Did I mention weekly musicians, vinyl night and other events !

Cool low key spot. I tried the cold brew and it was really good.

Nice coffee, Nice people :)Perfect!

Awesome spot for some koffee! We were driving back to N.Y and just wanted to take a quick break. Love the cozy ambiance, they have games. Good break from social media, and glued faces on the phone. Great location plenty to do within walking distance!

One of my favorite coffee shops in new haven

Perfect coffee shop for those who love studying while sipping some drinks! Last week, I was so problematic about my exam, so I decided to go to your shop and take time to sip a cup of coffee while studying. I was amazed by the incredible and fast service that you have. Keep it up! Highly recommended coffee shop! Thankyou so muuuuuuch!!!!

Went there based on google pics, was expecting cozy and friendly coffee shop. It is more for students, very progressive msgs everywhere(good for them, but not what I was looking for).Place is not cozy at all, it was cold inside, choice of pastry was not great.The ones they had, were looking tired and not presentable.Place has a great potential but it is not used even for 30%, most definitely needs some makeover.Good selection of cofee drinks. We got Mocha and Americano, no complaints here. I compare to coffee shops in New York and, sorry, but it is very different standart. But may be thats their thing??Coffee was good, but very little chance we come back here to sit and chat

The coffee is good and bagels great.

We traveled throughout the northeast on a roadtrip and tried several coffee shops along the way. Koffee? was our favorite. Their lattes are smooth and creamy. Their scones were also pretty good.

My favorite coffee shop in New Haven! Converted to window-service only since the pandemic making it even more convenient and accessible. Baristas are super friendly and the coffee is strong. Theres even a little artist park behind the shop that I find quite peaceful when youre in the mood to just sip and chill.

Great coffee and teas

This place is a must stop when youre in the area. Great coffee and beyond.

Don’t try to tip the Grateful Dead singing barista herb. Lol. Guess I’ve spent too much time out west. Ain’t the Daily Cafe, but New Haven has changed a lot since then....

Great place for coffee and a chocolate chip muffin on a lazy Sunday morning!

They carry boozy drinks as well as a delicious coffee menu plus! The indoor and outdoor seating areas are super chic!

A nice cozy atmosphere with a great selection of drinks and lite fare

Top notch food,wine and certainly the best ambience in the city.

Such fond memories of working on assignments here in college... the staff was always friendly and the outdoor space was amazing as well. Hope youre doing well, Koffee with a K as we used to say...

The best coffee shop in New Haven. Great staff, great drinks, great snacks, great atmosphere.

I’ve been visiting Koffee almost daily for two years. I don’t simply come back for the great tasting, always perfectly brewed coffee, but I stop here because everyone is so friendly. I’m not saying places I go to are rude or anything like that, but it great to walk up to someone and get a real hello or good morning, with some small talk versus “what can I get you”. Other stuff I love is the variety of drinks, the prices, and the location. All in all a great spot to grab a cup to go or chill.

Hands down best REAL coffee shop in downtown New Haven. Plus the atmosphere makes it even more interesting.

This place has the best iced coffee Ive ever had. And their muffins are excellent. If they had healthier options (they have yogurt etc. but heavy on the sugar) Id probably come here many times per week.

We loved this place. Even having an adult ambiance we all had a great time, they have table games that we actually used with the children and had a good time.The boys had hot cocoa, I had a cortado and wife had tea, all of them really well served and delicious. The cocoa wasnt as sweet and had a great thick texture.Good place to spent time either alone or not.Will Be Back.

Interesting little cookies and small snack items, vegan baked snack options.Frozen strawberry lemonade my fav.This is a favorite comfort zone for many in the area. Unique seating to read the paper, catch up with a friend, study, or anything else. The noise level is kept low besides the espresso whirls and such, so it’s perfect to study, relax, etc. coffee with a K try it. It’s not “fancy” if that’s what your seeking but the cozy atmosphere is what keeps me returning.

HeavenVery cute staff

Great coffee

New to town, and so happy I found this place early. It has the best, quaint coffee house vibe. Great chai and gluten free muffins!! Looking forward to spending many weekend mornings reading here.

Love good coffee places

This is now my favorite coffee shop in all of Connecticut. We tested out a new smoothie drink called Monkey Mocha which is espresso, banana, and chocolate with milk. It was absolutely perfect. The atmosphere was super cozy and felt like a place Id been a thousand times before even on my first visit. The staff is so, so friendly and helpful.

My friends and I stopped in Koffee? on a hot summer afternoon. We enjoyed a variety of cold drinks while sitting at a sidewalk table. I liked the ambiance, drinks, and commitment to sustainable products. This is a great coffee shop Id happily frequent if I lived in the area.

Koffee is a solid 4/5. Their sandwiches are _really_ good (my personal favorite being the veggie plowman), and their fruit and veggie catering platters are always high quality. I dont love their dessert platter; personally, I find most of their desserts to taste too manufactured. As for their coffee, it is pretty good. Smooth espresso and quality coffee. The environment is very cozy, but it can be hard to find a seat during busy hours, so try to get there off-peak if you want to sit and enjoy your drink.

Good coffee, shabby-chic style seating. Friendly but often very busy staff. Food is also good.

I absolutely ADORE KoffeeIts been awhile since Ive been since I dont get out that way often, but I made a special trip out just to get a frozen mocha and support them while theyre doing curbside pickup.Definitely wasnt disappointed and Ill definitely have to stop by more often.

Lovely ambiance, delicious food, excellent tea selection

It was just mediocre coffee. Suppose if I’m on a run and want to check a local coffee shop: it’s fine. I do like supporting local coffee shops. ☕️

Atmosphere was cute and cozy, metered parking outside. Staff was friendly my only problem was with the coffee I order. I got an iced mocha that did not taste like mocha at all, not sure if there espresso in it either. It tasted like burnt iced coffee that I paid 5.50 plus a tip for.

Love the netella hot coffee

Ordered coffee. Paid at window. Waited for coffee. After a 15 min wait I was told that service was being refused to me due to my not wearing a mask While waiting outside and my card would be credited.

First time going, but when I got there, it was exactly what I was looking for. A nice quiet environment where I can relax and converse with my date, music was not crazy but very calm and conducive to our conversation. Service was excellent. I recommend it and I will be going back.

Great

Excellent indie coffee shop and cafe. Great vibe and creative drinks. My barista was charming (short haired one) and helped me choose a new beverage to try. Will return next time Im in town.

A cafe that serves good coffee and is nice to hang out in. Their food is also very good, Im a particular fan of the Odd but Good sandwich (Cheese, Honey, and Green Apple on a ciabatta roll, its better than it sounds). In summer consider sitting outside in the patio/garden/yard behind the cafe.

Really unique coffee shop. Local college student favorite. Worth a visit.

Need a cozy and social place to study? Set up alone by the windows (standing desk) or with your small crew around a table or soft chairs. The coffee is great, there are gluten free treats, and you can shift to happy hour bevvies if you are there in the evening. Its a small place, so if its cold or rainy, have a plan b in mind. If its warm though, they have outdoor seating, both in front and in their park space in the back. The live music concert are fabulous. Most of the time the recorded music is pretty good. There are healthy snacks too to go along with the baked goods. And of course the baristas are fabulous.

It’s simply the best place in the world.

Very cute place! Their coffee and muffins are good quality too

Nice people, a comfortable place. Several banquettes covered with tons of cushions to stretch out on. The comfy chairs do not have wide enough arms to put a mouse on if you are planning on using a laptop. There are plenty of tables counters and a zillion outlets. Its a little pricey as you might expect in the heart of New Haven. But not exceptionally so, certainly no worse than Starbucks.

Koffee? Is a unique & charming local coffee house that checks for off every box:Delish coffees of various kinds. I personally love skinny lattes.Cozy, casual, chairs & tables of all kinds.Fab pastries, fruit salads, small subs so you can grab & go, or enjoy at a leisurely pace.Interesting changing original artwork by locals.Polite, attentive staff.Been going there regularly since it first opened!

One of the places where I recommend to stop by in downtown New Haven. you can literally smell the spirit of New Haven. students are here to hanging out, owner and staffs are friendly, there are controversial for their coffee, but it taste good for me. so lets hanging out today!!!

The just plain old coffee was great. Kind of pricey for just coffee in a mug but, good.The place is set up with a few more comfortable chairs in the front but, the back is clearly set up for people to sit and work. Plenty of WiFi a long work counter with individual lights and two long tables. Most people were working or studying. I would go back.

Seemed like a good study area, coffee had caffeine. Nothing stood out as holistically remarkable.

My favorite koffee shop in NH. The drinks, food and service are always great. Has that local coffee shop feel and like that regular customers are rewarded. If you haven’t been, should check it out.

I guess being in the middle of that area made it a very popular place for coffee, its just like any other coffee place . 4 stars for their location and a cozy setting inside. You want a great coffee may be you wont find anything diff here, but you want a nice place to relax and have decent coffee be there.

Very nice, cozy coffee shop. Has a very college town vibe. If you come in here on a typical day you will see students, professors, and normal residents going about their lives, which is nice. A bit cramped, but not a problem. Has a nice outdoor area in the back, which is a little unkempt but still pleasant.

Love love love the coffee, staff and its a part of Destination Electric and utilize green products! I was so thrilled to find this gem!

So cozy, and the coffee is great! Sometimes crowded, but totally worth it.

Excellent coffee shop with friendly staff...highly recommended in New Haven!!!

Hang out, relax, pursue your favorite subject by book or laptop, feel smart, have coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. Feel more west coast than east. Enjoy!

Ordered mini muffins and two coffees. Good experience, comfy seats, three muffins: 1. chocolate chip 2. carrot cake 3. poppyseed... all of them were undercooked and therefore soggy and doughy. $2.10 for all 3.Altogether was good experience. Metered parking free if you arrive before 8am.
