Best Bar & Grill in Storrs

Stopped in for the first time today and was overjoyed! The atmosphere was great; the decorations were gorgeous, clean, and nice for a quiet working space. I really liked the various curated spaces including the game section and a more private, glassed-off section for meetings. The food was fair priced and delicious! ... Unique flavor combinations made classic cafe options feel fresh and new (I really enjoyed the sumac on the avocado toast and the rose honey pancakes). I got a strawberry matcha which was not advertised as a speciality drink but was tasty nonetheless. I also tried an iced americano to go, and while it was good, I definitely preferred the matcha and chai. I’m excited to return to try more pastries and specialty lattes! Overall, a lovely spot downtown. Read More

We visited The House of Coffee while doing some wedding planning, and it turned out to be the perfect spot to get things done. The atmosphere was lively yet still comfortable enough to focus, which made it easy for us to sit, plan, and enjoy our time. Even though they were out of a few items, the staff was very ... accommodating and helped us find great alternatives. Everything we ordered ended up being super tasty, which made the experience even better. Overall, it was a great balance of productivity and enjoyment. I would definitely come back. Read More

This coffee shop has a wonderfully calm and relaxing atmosphere, making it a great place to study or spend time with your friends. The staff are extremely friendly, which really adds to the overall experience. What stood out the most was the thoughtful addition of a dedicated room for kids and their parents. The ... drinks that we ordered exceeded our expectations as well as the pastries! Read More

Saw a Facebook post from someone talking about this place having the popular fruit shaped desserts so I had to head over and check them out! First time ever coming here and I had the most welcoming experience I've had in a long time. The cashier was so nice and patient as I decided what I wanted to try. The owner was ... there and you could just tell how much they care about their customers and take pride in their food/drinks. He took the time to ask us how everything was and genuinely cared about our feedback. He was so kind! He even offered to make one of my drinks (I was taking one back home with me) after I finished my meal so it would be as fresh as possible when I left! The shop has the cutest decor and it feels very cozy and comfortable, there is also plenty of room to sit and enjoy your food/drinks. Everything was delicious! I tried the mango fruit dessert, turkey club, and a white mocha latte. I would say prices were average, about $6 for the coffee (but extra flavors added where $1 each), $12 for sandwich, and $14 for the dessert. Will definitely be going back for them again! I couldn't have hoped for a better experience 😁 Read More

This place is a gem! The decor is top notch, plenty of seating areas (with a kids play area), good music, and the matcha teas are fantastic! The picture is of the rose matcha tea with petals on top. I did not try any desserts or food yet, will update when I do 😊
