A lovely little place. Great atmosphere. But Ive been three times now and tried three different types of coffee drinks. And the coffee is so weak and watered down. But I definitely give it a three stars for atmosphere and staff, who were great!

Order was not correct. Ordered a mocha with extra shot, received an espresso shot. Ordered hot chocolate, it was watery and not at all chocolaty. Vanilla latte was okay. Will not be going here again.

Great little local coffee shop. It’s got a pleasant, almost archetypal coffeehouse atmosphere, the WiFi always works, the people are nice, and they make a solid bacon, egg, and cheese. The coffee is good, of course, too. Definitely recommend checking them out.

I got take out coffee and it was so yummy. I would definitely go back there. They had so many treats to pick from like muffins and scones to go along with the coffee. Atmosphere is really nice and relaxing with couches, low tables, and high tables.

We frequent coffeeshops as a past time, unfortunately the coffee at Three Bridges is not drinkable in the least, we spent nearly $30 to get 2 double shots, 2 small coffee, a cold brew and an iced coffee. All of which were thrown away.The male barista behind the bar has very little to no training. He tamped the espresso in the air as well as pulled TWO SHOTS FROM ONE ESPRESSO GRIND. One shot tasted like acid one shot tasted like dish water and there was no crema on either!

Great spot! Food, coffee and service always top-notch. I don’t understand the bad ratings at all. Maybe they were having their own bad days, and it colored everything else!

After reading a whole bunch of mixed reviews I wasn’t sure what to expect. My dark roast was fresh and hot, ended up going with one of the gluten free loaves which also tasted fresh and super yummy (btw, they have a whole bunch of gluten free pastries!). Clean and cute atmosphere. One thing - maybe keep an ingredients list for the GF pastries for those with multiple allergies? I’ll definitely be back!

AMAZING. Their chicken pesto panini is SO good. Every time I come here I get a pesto panini and a banana flavored hot chocolate. The inside is very cute and cozy. I love coming here and I wish they were open later.

This place used to have baked gluten free and vegetarians options. They were not good but at least they had the option. However, they been having nothing for celiacs for the past months now.

Review №24

This was a cute little spot, however their prices were outrageous! I love coffee and Ive gotten iced lattes from a lot of places and none of them charged me $7 for a basic iced latte. I ordered the seasonal one and they didnt even add all the items shown on the menu. Expensive for basic coffee... wouldnt recommend.

Review №25

Cashier was rude and the latte tasted like water flavored with one coffee bean. Ridiculously expensive for the quality. 10/10 would not recommend.

Coffee was nothing special. i got veggie cream cheese on a plain bagel, it was literally regular cream cheese with dehydrated(so hard to chew) veggies. way too over priced.

Review №27

The coffee was really watered down, it tasted worse then Dunkin’s. They only got 2 stars because the salted caramel biscotti was good.

Today was my first but not my last visit to this unique coffeehouse. I had a delicious in house prepared and baked cranberry muffin. It was loaded with fresh cranberries. My large hazelnut cappuccino was excellent! This place is so unique. Not only do they have a great menu but they have a boutique in the back of the sitting area with unique soaps, jewelry and clothing. The owner, Judy and her employees are very friendly. The coffeehouse is opened 7 days a week. Check it out you wont be disappointed.By the way, theres a big parking lot just behind the building.

Fantastic experience. Highly recommend the Quiche and Bacon Egg and Cheese sandwich. Must try is raspberry hibiscus tea (cold) it was amazing. Had a linzer tort as well and was not disappointed. Big plus for me is they have Cinnamon coffee.

Good place to hang out and get some work done for a few hours, plus good coffee and awesome pound cake. You wont find much else though besides the stellar baked goods. The interior could use a touch up, the lighting at mid day was pretty dim inside, and though there were no outlets to be found, the wifi was solid.

This place is an absolute gem! The owner is amazing, the environment is really laid back and cool- the kind of place I could see myself spending hours. Best of all, the coffee is amazing! Definitely skip the Dunkin’ and head down the block for coffee here.

Review №41

Stopped by on a work trip. Absolutely loved the feel of the renovated industrial building. The coffeeshop had a calm atmosphere where I could get some paperwork done while sipping on a mudslide latte. A little expensive, but not anymore than a generic Starbucks coffee would run you.

Review №42

Not only is Three Bridges Coffeehouse a great place to grab a latte or cappuccino, its next door to a book store. What is better than sipping a coffee while reading a book in a refurbished industrial building? Does that make me sound like a hipster?I have held various meetings here and make sure to stop in every time Im in the Conti building, which is more often than you might expect.I recommend Three Bridges Coffeehouse to everyone!

Review №43

I ordered a latte and slice of tomato & spinach quiche and was disappointed with both. The latte was $3+ and the quiche was $5+. With those prices I was expecting much better. The latte looked promising but tasted awful and the quiche was incredibly salty. I even mentioned to the lady working there that they shouldn’t serve the quiche to anyone else, it was that salty. I didn’t send anything back and paid for everything but it will be some time before I try this place again, if at all.

This is a must-visit Coffeehouse, let me tell you why.. the owner is a wonderful woman who supports local artists and artisans. The place is cozy with cool vintage interior. The coffee with the biscotti are the best. I travel 30 miles to spend some time there, so give it a gooo!!

Finally! A hipster coffee shop in Downtown Shelton. Really cool coffee shop serving up any way you take it. Friendly staff, and cheaper than Starbucks. Bathroom is okay, but its about time Downtown Shelton is getting some will needed shops like Three Bridges. 👌 4 stars only because I think it could use some couches.

The cashier was very rude. I thought it was just me but she was rude to my friend & another customer.I decided to leave because the energy was just toxic in there🤭4$+ for a mediocre latte. If you’re going to overcharge for items at least provide good service

I’ve now visited twice. Despite the waffle with nutella, fruit and fresh cream not being available during my first visit, I was a big fan. Latte excellent, atmosphere relaxing. I bought my parents two very large biscottis ($4 each) and mom and dad loved them. Muffin and scone both tasty. So, I visited a second time. I was expecting the waffle with nutella, fresh fruit and fresh cream to be available but it was still unavailable. This time, I was a bit annoyed. Why not erase if from your chalkboard menu? It’s been unavailable for weeks. So, I asked about the quiche on the menu. No quiche available. So, both my sister and I ordered avocado toast with egg. It was very tasty, but each order only consisted of one piece of toast. I’ve never ordered avocado toast and recieved just one slice. Half and half was emtpy 45 minutes after opening time on a Saturday morning. $22 for 2 coffees and 2 orders of one slice of toast with avocado spread and an egg. Disappointed second time around. Kind service, cute place, yummy treats -thus 4 stars - but I I feel we spent way too much for what we recieved yesterday and menu needs to be updated to reflect what is actually available.

UPDATE: still a good spot for a cup of coffee. I will say that its good for a cup of brewed coffee, the lattes and cappuccinos can use a little work, but I say this very lightly. I am spoiled being in New Haven so much the coffee culture there is outstanding! But in the Stratford//Trumbull/Shelton area the coffee culture is horrible!! Three Bridges is the best place to get a cuppa around this area, it is one of the only coffee shops outside of DD or SB...I still stand by my words and I will go here before I go Starbucks..Original: Prices on the higher side, but comparable to starbucks. 3.50/4 bucks for a biscotti was a little high in my mind but it was one of the best ones ive ever had! Coffee was very very good, reminded me of something i would get at willoughbys or atticus in new haven. I will go here before i go to starbucks
