Mothership on Main

Service is friendly and quick. We ordered the Idaho Girl Skillet, the Southwest Omelet, and two of the delicious turnovers. Everything was tasty and filling. It’s neat to sit and watch the kitchen through the large window, and see them making more turnovers! What a delightful little spot!

What’s better than starting your day with a “I can’t make this at home” breakfast? 😎
Mothership has it.
We traveled to Connecticut for business and wanted more than a hotel meal.
The staff is friendly, helpful and eager to make your visit memorable.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ are not enough to describe how much we enjoyed our Mothership experience.
Do NOT leave without selecting some of their incredible, fresh-baked items! Later in the day, you will be happy you did.

Ordered a strawberry pudding, a latte, an Idaho Girl skillet, and a greek omelette. Overall good food but the Idaho girl came out a little bit greasy imo. Nice quiet ambience with friendly staff. Parking at the front is very little so you have to park at the back.

I love coming here!. I travel over 30 mins to this awesome lunch cafe. I'm lucky my sister lives in Danbury and I can visit here when I'm in the area. My favorite dish is the Hot to Trot Skillet! 2 eggs, roasted vegetables, black beans, chipotle, adobo sweet potatoes, pepperjack, and my fav beef short ribs!! Or you can get bacon, sausage, ham or tofu. Excellent and friendly table service.

Inviting and comfortable decor, friendly servers and delicious food! A must try if in the area and looking for a casual breakfast or lunch. The bakery is a BIG plus. Everything looked and smelled amazing!!

Great place for breakfast or lunch. Retro look. Creative dishes. Fresh baked goods like carrot cake, cookies, and bread pudding.
This is not basic breakfast. Excellent food. Must try. I got the Hot to Trot skillet. I had a bite of a special biscuits and gravy that was not your traditional, but excellent nonetheless. Very very good 👍

Love the presentation of the food and drinks. Well priced and good tasting food with friendly service. As for the food, tacos were my favorite and very tasty with great presentation. The burrito was big and filling. My mocha coffee was delicious. And the rest of the food was great. Plenty of options like gluten free or vegan. Overall we will come back to try everything else.

Warm atmosphere, great service and fantastic food. Had a plate with potatoes, short rib and eggs. The coffee is stellar and the OJ was fresh squeezed. I’m based in Manhattan so I’m used to great restaurants (also I’m in the restaurant business). I was very impressed. Keep up the good work, mother ship

Loved the brunch this morning, I was a guest but great food, service & ambiance! Will is a great server even pricing is very reasonable better than any big dinners!

Cute, quaint, local, well-done, homemade. This was the perfect place for us to stop for lunch on our road trip. I could only hope that every town has a small little spot like this. The food was delicious, options for everyone, and they even served cocktails. We got the BLT and veggie wrap, great that there was an option to include tofu for no extra cost! We also got the chimichurri fries, highly recommend. Housemade yucatan syrup in coffee is great!!! I wish I could’ve tried all the homemade teas and syrups. Did I mention the artisan jewelry store inside the cafe?

If you love eating and supporting local, this is the place for you. If you drink kombucha, you’ll like their vibe. If you’re vegan/vegetarian, check this out. I’ve never been to Danbury, CT but this seemed like a hidden gem.

Loved our breakfast here this morning. We tried out two of the egg skillets with short ribs, strawberry and whipped cream pancakes, blueberry & peach mini pies (not sure of the actual name), chocolate croissant, and mocha lattes. All were really delicious, fresh and hot. Clean restaurant, mostly self service but helpful staff as needed. They gave real maple syrup without a special request which says a lot to the quality of the rest of the ingredients! Will definitely be back

What a great find! This cute, eclectic spot has a unique flair. The bakery items are amazing. We had a lemon curd muffin with raspberry icing. Yum! The veggies burger salad was fabulous. Coffee drinks are served in huge cups! Our server, Will was friendly, attentive, and personable! He listened to our needs and gave great suggestions! I can't wait to come back again!

We happened to stop here for breakfast based upon other reviews on our way to Maine. Awesome all around. Great vibe and ambience. Food and service was excellent. I had a green omelette with spinach, herbed feta, tomatoes and I added turkey sausage and a gluten free pumpkin muffin. (Can you say 'yum'?) My husband had the oatmeal with chia and hemp seeds and a cappuccino. All delicious.

Great little coffee shop. Tons of pastry options to choose from, the coffee was really good and hot, the environment was very inviting, open, well lit and decorated with lots of art, and the staff were very friendly and helpful in helping me decide what to get. The scone I had was fantastic, not too dry and not too sweet, just exactly right. Hung out for a little bit and soaked in my surroundings just enjoying my morning, and I was very pleasantly surprised with how relaxing and low key the place was. Would definitely recommend coming here for a nice little morning treat. Would absolutely return if I ever find myself in the area.

Mothership on Main and Charter Oak brewery brunch collaboration is a success on both fronts!
You are in luck still because this brunch takes place every Sunday in February!
And what a wonderful thing to do with your Valentine!
My husband is a beer connoisseur and he reviewed the beer variety in a separate review. I will just add that visiting Charter Oak brewery and meeting the owners was a delight.

I will review the food experience of the event.
Everything that Mothership on Main catered for this occasion was so delicious! LThe mouth watering quiches, frittata, mini shepherd pies, French toast, chicken pot pie. Scrumptious!

And the baking goods made with so much love and thought is a staple of that bakery. I tasted morning glory muffins, cheesy biscuits, and miniature danish-like pastries. And everything I could not taste (I was too full), I still see in my sweet dreams and wish I have tasted.
Great baking there! Textures,flavors, appeal - it all gets high marks from me.

Thank you Mothership on Main and Charter Oak Brewery for creating this one-of-a-kind event!

beautiful cafe with lots of nice cozy details and even a place for kids, people come even with dogs to sit in one room. The bakery is amazing, it’s for parents and couples. The cups for tea and coffee are large. Delicious menu with something unique too.

I had the chicken and waffles. Wow! Fantastic! My wife had an apple turnover and loved it. Only negative was that my first cup of coffee tasted like it had been around a while. The owner immediately and with a smile replaced it with another coffee. You can't deal with it any better than that! They put the customer first. First time, and we will be back.

This place is a great bakery/coffee shop. Plenty of choices on the coffee. Our boys were able to get some steamers, so they enjoyed it too. They had some vegan bakery options as well. Could also watch them baking their goodies through the glass between their kitchen and dining area. Definitely worth the stop!!!!

As soon as you walk in you feel welcomed, the staff is very friendly and helpful. Everything looks fresh and delicious. Their breakfast sandwiches are so good, I recommend!

What an awesome gem of a restaurant with excellent food and a great welcoming vibe! Mothership On Main (“MoM”) is a few notches up from your usual bakery and deli. Your first hint that this place is something special is when you look at the breakfast or lunch menu – you thankfully won’t find anything as boring as the usual slab of chicken thrown onto a hard roll with lettuce and tomato. Nope – at MoM we’re talking about ingredients that inspire your taste buds, like a breakfast burrito with braised beef short ribs and chipotle adobo sweet potatoes or a Roasted Turkey and Havarti sandwich with homemade lemon dill mayo.

Open for breakfast and lunch it’s counter-order but service to your table, and its at your table where you are provided bottled water and a linen napkin! Who does that at a place like this? With a smiling waitstaff you just can’t help being in a great mood and loving life. There are two primary seating areas – one with smaller tables (singles, doubles) in the café section, and one with larger tables in the main dining room.

Don’t think of this as a restaurant – that’s a bit too stuffy and implies expensive, and it would be a crime to simply call this a “deli” especially when compared to those in the area. Let’s go with “bistro” that offers a unique blend of high-quality, creative ingredients that come together for a great casual dining experience. There’s not many places like this in the area – definitely stop in and give it a try.
