Crema's Take

Steam Coffee Bar is a spacious Hartford gathering spot housed in the historic Steam Boiler building, where freshly made sandwiches and an ever-changing selection of hot dishes (think rotating chili recipes) are priced by weight, giving you flexibility to build exactly what you want. The traditional coffee drinks pair nicely with their pastries and light fare, making it an ideal spot for lingering over a meal with friends, though service can be inconsistent depending on who's working the counter that day.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. Good for meetings spot. Pastries and light food on the menu.
