Reviews for The Cotton Mill Cafe in Beverly, MA
Such a wonderful surprise finding this coffee shop. We were in the area and hadn?t been in years and wanted to stop into a... coffee shop with our four kids. Found this on the map and it looked to be a good size to fit all of us. George, the owner withhis wife, were just the kindest. The kids had a bit of energy and were running around a little to which we tried to curb when wewere ordering some items. He had small stuffed animals and let them choose. He said he wants this place to be a family place andloves having kids in. They had really good quality tasting coffee, husband got a cappuccino and I got an iced coffee, verysmooth. Kids shared mini charcuterie of veggies and meat/cheese and sliced focaccia. Then a cupcake each that was the perfectsize for them. We shared the CHEB sandwich which was delicious and fresh. Can?t wait to return and try their ice cream. Suchfriendly service and people! Thank you for letting us feel at ease for bringing our big family out. Read more
My friend and I came here to study. We had a great time enjoying the atmosphere and music that wasn?t overly loud like some... other places. I will say I was a little disappointed in the iced coffee I got, but when I go there again I plan to try some icecream! It?s a nice space to meet and talk with people or study/work. The cotton mill cafe lost a star from me because the coffeewas watered down, but I love the time I spent there and would recommend others to try something else for their menu! Read more
First time here and I was impressed!! I think my family and I will be regulars and I'm excited to try more things from the menu.... Had a breakfast sandwich on a gluten free bagel and was shocked at how great it was! Excited to have a gluten free friendlyplace around. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond when my appt ran late and I was late pickingup my order. They brought it out to my car and even re-made the sandwich so it was fresh without me asking! Super thoughtful andappreciated. Also bonus-got a blueberry muffin for my picky 1 year old and he loved it! New favorite! Read more
So impressed by this place! I can?t speak to the food, because we only had ice cream sundaes the day we visited, but such a... great experience and atmosphere! The staff was incredibly friendly. We met the owner, who was so kind to my kids?even going outof his way to turn on the old Juke box for my son who was super curious about it. The decor is so fun and unique and brought meright back to my childhood. The kids keep asking me when we can go back. Very highly recommend! Read more
Service was amazing but you pay for it literally...$6.90 for a double shot cappuccino...I'm pretty sure that is the most expense... espresso I've ever had in my life. It did taste better than Starbucks but not worth the extra money imho. UPDATE: Turns out itwas a miscommunication and they thought I wanted a triple shot cappuccino so that's why it was higher than normal. My onlyother complaint is that they had the doors propped wide open which would be fine on a nice summer day but it was 53F, cold andrainy outside. I came here for warmth and found none. Very hard to do work on a laptop with cold fingers. Plus I very muchdislike when companies waste energy as their heat is on but it's just all going straight outside. UPDATE: Please, pretty pleasejust buy an OPEN sign to welcome customers inside and let them know you are open. Thanks. Read more
We had the most pleasant experience trying out the Cotton Mill for the first time today. The staff went above and beyond with... their genuine kindness, a mini ice cream treat for our dog, and just an overall welcoming atmosphere that you can?t help butwanting to return to. The front cashier in particular was especially thoughtful and gave the impression like he sincerelyenjoyed his job and making sure customers were happy which is something you don?t see very often anymore. The breakfastsandwiches were great. We will definitely be back to try some ice cream. Read more
Omg they are AMAZING!!! I met the owners today because I was the winner of their giveaway of an ice cream party for me and my co... workers. They are the nicest people and serve the yummiest ice cream! I can't wait to come back and try their food (I'm reallylooking forward to their meat and cheese board called "the woody"). Thanks again for all the yummy treats!!! Read more
