On 03/04 my daughter invited me for my first time here at the house of shaw coffee shop. The young lady was very nice and helpful. Brew coffee was very delicious. Will be back soon.
As a celiac, I often struggle when eating out. There’s not a lot gluten free options and many place aren’t educated about cross contamination. But that is not the case for House of Shaw. The owner was extremely helpful and educated on food safety and cross contamination. She went above and beyond for me! I got the turkey on a gluten free bagel bun, and my partner got a regular breakfast croissant. This was our first time here and we will definitely be back. Great food, great coffee and great atmosphere!
I had a special Meatloaf sandwich during Stockton's Restaurant Week and the meatloaf was good but I would have preferred ketchup with the mayo instead of mustard, My sandwich was missing cheese but not a bad thing for me but it didn't have tomato or onion either. I should have asked. The special included a desert of cookie or brownie and a drink, and they were able to substitute the last cup of coffee instead of soda/tea which was cool, but a little over an hour before closing they didn't make any more coffee, 😞 no second cup today. My wife got the pork sliders which in addition to a small salad which I got as a side, hers came with a small cole slaw (mayo free) which is how she likes slaw. She enjoyed her meal as did I.Her brownie and my cookie were very tasty. The place was clean with quite a bit of room. Staff was friendly and polite and meal was served quickly.
This was my first time being here. The place was used for a work meeting. The environment allowed for a great conversation along with great service for some Coffee drinks! I would definitely go back and try some of their sandwiches!! My only watch out is the parking situation so plan on going early to find a spot!!
The service was fantastic. I think that's the most important part. The woman who made my bagel was a perfectionist and the food was incredibly beautiful and assembled very skillfully with much attention to detail. The atmosphere was ok. Quiet and clean for the most part. The food was good. I ordered the lox bagel with salmon and capers. It tasted alright. Not too bad. The bagel was very chewy but not unpleasantly so. The coffee was really just ok. Not too much flavor. I ordered the hazelnut cold brew with oat milk. My table was extremely wobbly so it moved with every bite of my fork and every time I picked up and set down my coffee so that was a little frustrating and embarrassing but I did not want to move and dirty another table so I stuck it out. If I decide to eat breakfast in Stockton again I will definitely consider this place from just the service alone. Professionalism goes a long way and this team definitely cares about that.
