Stella’s Cafe
50 Pointe Pl, Dover, NH
Crema's Take
“Stella's Cafe is a hidden gem where locals linger over expertly crafted drinks like their perfectly spiced dirty chai and seasonal cold brew creations, all while enjoying some of Dover's best baked goods—the bagels and crullers are worth the trip alone. The real magic happens in the warmth of the space itself: staff genuinely light up when greeting customers, and the cozy, welcoming atmosphere makes it equally perfect for a solo work session with your laptop or catching up with friends over a TBC sandwich that folks won't stop raving about.”

Everything is so yummy and tastes fresh every time! Staff are all pleasant and kind. Love the bagels and its hard not to turn down a cruller each time. The TBC sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had, so good!!
I am so excited that I found this place!! I am a big fan of Lil's in Kittery but I never seem to be able to get down there. By chance, my girlfriend mentioned this place and I drove down the very next day. The biggest attraction, for me, is there delicious, delectable french crullers. I would drag myself here with one arm and two broken legs for just one cruller. Secondary to that is the rest of the food. It is SO GOOD. My first time there I ordered a sausage egg and cheddar breakfast sandwiche on an english muffin. My first bite I discovered they make their own english muffins. Talk about melt-in-your-mouth! I ate that so quick. The coffee is also delicious. I'm fairly straightforward with my coffee. I like americanos with just a splash of cream, so I don't have much insight into their other coffees, but I absolutely LOVED the americano. It was velvety and smooth. I drive here FREQUENTLY from out of town. It's worth the trip!!
A lovely cafe with excellent baked goods and coffees! Their dirty chai is perfectly spiced, though pictured is their seasonal gingerbread cold brew coffee which is equally wintery and delicious. This is a cozy spot for a catch-up with a friend. Bring your kiddos they can munch on one of the lightest and fluffiest crueller donuts you'll ever experience. Service is always friendly, fast, and accurate no matter how busy they get!
A cute little cafe. We came here on the way through because the reviews were so good. The people working were friendly. A couple of issues to get out of the way. The drip coffee that was served to my husband was cold. They had to make some fresh which took quite a while. He got it after we were finished eating. Our breakfast sandwiches had the proteins mixed up. We easily took them off and switched. The breakfast sandwiches were decent. I wouldn’t pay $10 for them again though. The crullers were amazing. The pecan latte was yummy and not too sweet.
Stella’s Cafe & Restaurant is a gem! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt clean, cozy, and genuinely welcoming. The staff greeted me with bright smiles—you can tell they truly love what they do, and it shows in every detail. I ordered the avo egg toast special and it was absolutely spectacular—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated (although my picture doesn't do it justice because I was on the go and didn't think to take a picture before I had it wrapped up and I was in the car). The outdoor seating was just as lovely, with a peaceful vibe that made my meal feel like a mini retreat. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place. Highly recommend!
