Top Coffee shops in Northampton, United States

Cool, sunlit space and good baked goods. Been here for a long time. Original owner worked at the OG Rao's back in the day and they've long shared a baker/roaster with Esselon so there's a local coffee lineage that I appreciate

Great small cafe. They have amazing bread and baked goods. One of the best in Northampton and they have been there a long time and are always busy so you know it's good. They have a large variety of drinks and baked goods. Highly recommend trying the cafe out they have something for everyone. Just be aware it is popular and does get busy but your never waiting too long for your drink.

my all-time favorite coffee shop! they have the best atmosphere, high quality food and drinks at fairly reasonable prices! So many baked goods, including fresh breads and lots of GF and vegan options. They have a variety drinks (coffee drinks, apple cider, iced and hot tea, steamers, hot cocoa, kombucha, smoothies, etc.) so even if you don't like coffee you'll find something, and they have breakfast and lunch sandwiches that are SO GOOD. it's a cozy place that always feels warm and inviting, 10/10, my go-to spot!

I recommend...
drinks: hot chocolate, iced half-and-half, hot or iced cider
treats: banana chocolate chip muffin, challah, bagels, pumpkin pie, eclairs, chocolate chip cookies
food: egg & cheese and "east meets Woodstar" bagel sandwiches

Woodstar cafe has great atmosphere. I have been going for years. Food are always fresh and they use local ingredients.
It has delicious sandwiches, pastries, muffins, and hot soups everyday. They have all kinds of breads. Vegan, gluten free choices. I go just about every day, and have try almost everything on their menu. I recommend this place to people.

Woodstar is wonderful. I’ve been going here for a few years now, and quite regularly for the last year. They have the best croissants in Northampton (and I say this as someone who has tried all of them), and everyone there is so so nice.
The atmosphere here is lovely. It’s usually busy enough that working is a little challenging, but there’s a smaller back room where I have accomplished many a homework assignment. Outlets aren’t abundant.
My literal only complaint is that getting there at 9:30 instead of 8:30 is often the difference between them having croissants and not. Maybe they make more later in the day, but I have had to make due with other (also delicious, mind you) baked goods more often than I would prefer.

HEAR ME OUT. I’m a mega-fan of this place. Seriously. It deserves way more than 3 stars. I’ve been going here since it opened many moons ago. But here’s the thing: THE reason for going here is for the RASPBERRY OATMEAL MUFFIN. Not this inferior mixed berry nonsense. They took perhaps the best muffin in the history of the existence of muffins and took away its magic, and jammed in some lesser berries. I’ve waited patiently for over 2.5 years now, I’ve called and talked to many people about this every few months, but to no avail. I get that prices might be crazy, so then charge double for it, I beg of thee! Right this wrong! Undo this terrible assault to muffindom! Please, PLEASE, for the love of what’s GOOD, BRING BACK THE RASPBERRY OATMEAL MUFFIN. Use extra raspberries not less. Don’t cut corners here! I’m ready to give you SIX stars, I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!

P.S. to any fools still reading my rant, this place is genuinely awesome, all the baked goods are bomb, the coffee drinks are insanely tasty, and the employees are so kind. Even the mixed berry muffin I so besmirch is solid. But having tasted perfection, it just doesn’t compare. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The environment of outdoor seatings was very good especially for a sunny Spring afternoon. The cappuccino and the flat white were flavorless… we can only taste the bitterness but not the good smell of the coffee bean

Today was my first time visiting the cafe and I will absolutely be back! Hot chocolate was one of the best I’ve ever had and breakfast sandwich was great! Bread was fresh and the environment was comforting. Staff was friendly and kind. Great experience, looking forward to coming back!
