My first visit to G Cafe was lovely! I appreciated the variety of options, including vegan and vegetarian. All the desserts looked wonderful, my chai latte with oat milk was delicious, but the highlight was the olive bread. It took a bit to decide which loaf to buy, but I made the right choice. They graciously sliced it for me, and I had eaten half by the end of the day. Delicious enough with a pat of butter, but I cant wait to try it as sandwich bread!

I don’t know what I would do without G cafe- it is a staple in Branford. Their bread is perfection, crispy on the outside, soft in the inside. Their baked goods are outstanding. I highly recommend their pragels, croissants, french toast, carrot cake, cheesecake and coffee. Everything is so good.

I had a meeting right next door to G Cafe...it was suggested I check it out before I left Branford.Have to say, very nice! I ordered the avocado toast with mozzarella and tomatos...VERY GOOD. I also bought a fresh loaf of bread to bring home,, now I have to starve myself because I ate the whole thing!!

The best bagel I have ever had!!!! I had the lox, cream cheese, capers, onions with a fried egg on top and an onion bagel. Crispy on the outside but super easy to bite through and soft on the inside.. I can’t wait to go back!

We live in town and love being able to walk here and order a fresh loaf of bread, lattes and pastries. Great local spot to pick up some delicious things. I’m a fan of their volkenbrot bread (recommended to me by a nutritionist) and their linzer tarts.

The old lady that works the grill in the morning she makes excellent excellent food places good for sandwiches and everything but the guy that comes in the afternoon to make the food is kind of disgusting you got to get there before 10 so the older lady makes your food

Pricey but WELL WORTH IT! The salmon breakfast sandwich is amazing. The coffee is also super good although a bit on the cold side. The sweet pastries are super good!

On the expensive end as far as cafés go, but the food is worth it. The pragel and lox is exceptional. The German bread here is very good.

So irritating! Just ordered a panini and chili to go. Got home, and found that the chili was really more of a soup, and the women behind the counter only filled the container halfway. The panini was burnt and very salty. The chili/soup liquid was bitter. I had to spit it out. Good thing I only had half a container...oh wait, never mind, I paid for a full one! Lazy cheap and sloppy execution. Overpriced for the quality.

Get this. I call before closing yesterday, no one answers, so I leave a message that I want croissants to pick up today, the day before Thanksgiving. I call this morning, no answer, I leave a message. No one calls back. I call again. A woman answers. Theyre almost out of croissants. I go there, she tells me, we dont have a password for the answering machine. Were not responsible for taking your order since, we never got it.

The multigrain croissants are very good.The almond croissants used to be tender and flaky but this past year the dough is very tough. If the recipe has changed, please change it back. The Volkenbrot bread is excellent.

German bakery with authentic German bread and other items. Somewhat limited selection but what they have is excellent and without alternative in the area. They also serve breakfast and lunch.

This local place uses high-quality ingredients, offers a solid selection, and consistently has efficient service. Their menu has plenty of healthy items and plenty of delectable pastries, too. I really enjoy their coffee and iced tea assortment. They offer several vegetarian-friendly options. The cute view of downtown Branford from the windows and the natural light make this an awesome place to read or do some work. Free WiFi.

Perfect, European style bakery, with mouth-watering breads, cakes, cookies, croissants, sandwiches, and scones, all beautifully displayed in cases where attentive staff will pack your choices for treats to go... or stay, and make yourself at home in the comfortable cafe. Coffees, teas, and other beverages available, as well some homemade pizzas and other offerings, which change day to day. Lovely view of the Branford Green. Love this local gem!

I have ordered from here numerous times. The service has never been good however yesterday did it for me. I ordered pick up and stood at register while the servers each waited on other people that came in after me and ignored me standing there. When I asked if someone could help me I was asked to wait.When I asked if I should stand here or get in the order line for pick up the server told me either way that I just needed to give them a minute. ??? I ordered 2 open face brie sandwiches. I have ordered them in the past. This time the slice of bread was thinner than before with barely and arugula and quite frankly not worth $10. I order for our company. Not going back.**** update **** ok I went back. New management. Much better than before. I changed the rating.

Review №46

Ordered a brie tartine on a croissant, price-$9.50, asked to have prosciutto added and cut in half rather than open faced..... apparently that offended the person taking my order as he reminded me with an attitudethat a tartine is open faced - told him I understood but wished to have it closed as it was TO GO and would be more manageable.When I opened my sandwich it was NOT cut in half, hughely messy, the croissant was burnt with ONE piece of prosciutto..... the price I was charged for this mess was $17.50.#notcool #wasteofhardearned$

Second time here. Lukewarm coffee both times. No Splenda or Stevia.Ordered bagel and smoked salmon at a cost of 13.95. They couldnt spare more than a half ounce of salmon along with the plastic tomato. It was crowded during lunch. I dont know why. Ill never be back. I find the place way overpriced for what you get and mediocre food.

I am a long time resident of Branford. I have been to this location several times an EVERY time it gets worse and worse. They ignore you when you walk in, you stand there looking around for 15 mins before anyone takes your order an when they do they act like they you are inconviencing them. Today did it for me. I walked in to order a bagel with cream cheese. I asked the girl if it was fresh at which point she squeezed the bagel an said yes. Ok. An then she proceeded to yell that my food was ready when I was standing within 2 feet of her. They don’t say thank you ever an to be honest the food is overpriced an not that tasty.
