Little Dandelion
208 Wooster St, New Haven, CT
Crema's Take
“This New Haven gem pulls you in with the aroma of fresh-baked cinnamon rolls and keeps you with owner Andrea's genuine warmth and deep knowledge of espresso craft. The intimate space strikes that perfect balance between a quiet refuge for focused work and a welcoming gathering spot, where every cup is made with care and their pastries (especially those cinnamon rolls) are worth the visit alone. You'll find yourself lingering longer than expected, surrounded by the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like a regular from your first visit.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.
