Green Kettle Coffee

HELLO!!!! I’ve went to Green Kettle multiple times over the course of a couple months before & now very much inclined to write this review. Overpriced coffee, overpriced food, and staff that does not even pay attention. Any time I got a latte it was $9+ and for what? Really disgusting coffee, too much milk, who is training your baristas? Either they are not using the correct temp, grind, water or just winging it. Actually embarrassing. Now let me start on the food. So overpriced for baked goods but let me TELL YOUUUUU about this sad sloppy soggy $15 RICOTTA TOAST they sold me…just look at the photo. It wasn’t even toasted. Probably as thin as a piece of paper. Did you get the bread from the dollar store? The ricotta was melted and liquid. Whatever the hell that berry glob was tasted like it was canned. Didn’t even give me a napkin, no utensils, NOTHING. Nothing out that I could even grab myself either. Had to ask the employees and they gave me 1 skinny napkin and a plastic fork. For 15 whole DOLLARS? No thanks. Please train your baristas. Fix your food and beverage quality. Lower your prices. Absolutely asinine lol. Thanks!! Have a great day!

The prices here are a complete rip for central CT. $8.91 for a 16 oz iced latte that’s mostly cold foam. The interior could use an uplift with nicer tables and chairs for patrons, especially for the prices they’re charging. The table I briefly sat at was beyond worn and surrounding area was dirty. Staff weren’t all that welcoming either. There’s nicer options in CT for less money.

As a local, I can honestly say Green Kettle Coffee is the best local coffee spot around. They create creative drinks with monthly themes paired with excellent snacks, and everything is made with real care. The coffee is consistently smooth and flavorful, and the cozy atmosphere makes it the perfect place to catch up with neighbors or get a little work done. It’s more than just a coffee shop; it’s a true community hub, and we’re lucky to have it right here in town.

Green Kettle is a wallingford staple! Their coffee is delicious. They change their beans periodically- using local roasters. I’m simple with a mocha latte, but I was a huge fan of their chai with their house made coconut syrup. The baristas are super friendly and make the best coffee. I love their little protein balls & over night oats for a quick snack. Perfect place to catch up with friends, or get some work done.

I went with a friend for a latte before getting our day started. Green Kettle Coffee is easy to access from the street, with ample street parking. The shop is small but inviting with pleasant staff. The menu has a surprisingly large selection of drinks and the prices were certainly fair. My gingerbread latte was beyond satisfactory and was the best one I've had at any shop. I highly recommend Green Kettle Coffee for a delicious drink!
