The Marketplace at Guilford Food Center
77 Whitfield St, Branford, CT
Crema's Take
“The staff here genuinely cares about getting details right, whether you're ordering a shake made with real fruit and minimal added sugar or trusting them to orchestrate your entire wedding day. It's a casual marketplace-style spot on Guilford's town green that balances being a quick grab for coffee and pastries with the capability to handle full breakfasts and sit-down meals, making it equally comfortable for a solo coffee run or lingering with friends. The food can be inconsistent—some days the salads shine, other days execution falters—but the friendly, attentive service keeps regulars coming back.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

I usually have a great experience here. Very nice people and great food. But today I ordered a salad with chicken cutlet and the breading was not even cooked. Soggy and wet, falling apart. It doesn’t look like it was cooked at all 😞
The staff at this establishment are just fantastic. So kind, swift and helpful! The shakes are fantastic, I personally love that they do not add sweeteners (or if so very little). Their salads are chock full of wonderful toppings and they make excellent sandwiches.
We had our wedding at Marketplace this weekend and it was amazing. We live in Canada and Brita made the planning so easy from afar. She made sure every single detail was sorted. They completely transformed the space for our wedding reception and it was so beautiful! The food was…
