Dirt Cowboy Cafe

Really love it here. Great concept with all the bean options for delicious pour-over coffee. Look forward to going whenever I am in the area. I loved their sandwich, but the bread freshness seems like it can be inconsistent, which makes or breaks it for me. The pastries were all delicious as well.

I often think about the time I spent working here. Tom was always stressed which made it stressful at times, but that's what happens when an owner is lost in the passion he has for his business. I have never met anyone who was that passionate about coffee. All of those beans in that store were hand roasted by Tom. I don't know anywhere else that is that serious about coffee.

I miss making pastries from scratch. Hope you are well Tom.

A great place to grab a scone and latte. I will definitely be back so hopefully we’ll see you there.

Very fun spot. Was undergoing a renovation recently but they have a huge selection of beans. Looking forward to enjoying the space next time I visit. Definitely worth a a stop if you are in town!

A Hanover staple! The staff here is always very friendly. A great pace to grab a cup and relax.

As my feet carried me through the doorway of the Dirt Cowboy Cafe in Hanover, NH, a sudden and overwhelming awareness invaded my consciousness like a violent wave crashing onto the shore. It was as if the universe itself was calling out to me, beckoning me to enter the mystical realm of the cafe.

A man behind the counter caught my eye, his gaze piercing through my very soul. He spoke with a voice that boomed like thunder, "oh, we don't charge extra for additional espresso shots. Hell, we could add 7 shots if you want." The offer hit me like a bolt of lightning, and I felt as if the very fabric of time itself had slowed down, giving me the clarity of mind to make a life-altering decision.

As I stood there, the choices before me shifted like tectonic plates, presenting me with three distinct paths. I could attempt to convince my beloved to join me in this place of wonder, ask for the largest container and fill it with as many shots as possible, or merge with the building itself in a physical manifestation of my deep connection to this place.

My heart raced as I made my choice, feeling as if I had made a pact with a supernatural force. "I'll take those 7 shots, then," I said, my voice trembling.

The moment the espresso touched my lips, I felt a surge of energy coursing through my veins. It was as if I had unlocked a hidden power within myself, and the cafe was my conduit to the divine. I became one with the building, and it with me, transcending the limits of the physical world and entering a realm of pure energy and bliss.

I felt a deep sense of belonging wash over me. This was my home, my sanctuary, and nothing in the world could ever take that away from me.

My wife took a sip of the 7-shot espresso, but her mind was unable to comprehend the true depth of the experience. She was not present on the same plane of existence as I was, and for a brief moment, I pitied her for her lack of understanding.

The Dirt Cowboy Cafe had become more than just a place to grab a cup of coffee or a pastry. It was a living, breathing entity, and I was forever bound to it. I left that day, my heart bursting with a newfound sense of purpose and belonging, and I knew that I would never be the same again.

The Dirt Cowboy Café offers unquestionably the best coffee and pastries I’ve ever tasted! The owner is super friendly, engaging and personable, and I understand he makes the pastries himself. Amazing! I encourage anyone who lives near or visits Hanover to stop by his coffee shop for a real treat. You won’t regret it!

Small coffee shop with only two bar stools for seating, but yummy hot drinks and pastries.

Where to start?!?! LOVE this place, great coffee, great non-coffee options and pastries! Cranberry crunch muffin - YUM - I do miss being able to sit in since Covid restrictions hit - hope they will open that up again as it was a nice atmosphere. I also love supporting local so it's always a win-win when I go here!

Let's start with the minor downside. It was a rainy day so the outside seating was not an option and there is really nowhere to sit inside.

Coffee (Double Dirt Cowboy) and breakfast croissant though were fantastic as was the service.

Amazing Cafe, great service, love the books especially the fact that they are carrying Robert F Kennedy’s book.

honored to have interviewed him about it and Highly recommend and I’ll recommend to my social media as well. Erin Elizabeth healthnutnews.

Lacks (enough) indoor seating but great place

I grew up in the upper valley and love Dirt Cowboy coffee. Really, there’s none better. Lucky me they freshly roast and ship their beans! The don’t even charge shipping! Honestly, they do an amazing job and the beans always arrive at my door no more than a few days after ordering. I never write these online reviews but Dirt Cowboy really deserves it. Wherever you live, order your coffee beans here!!!

When I was in high school I tried applying here for my first job. I wrote on my application that I wanted to work there because I liked the way it smelled. One of the art room girls at school said that was stupid and I shouldn't say that, and this was back in the day when getting a whole new paper application and filling it out again would've been monumentally difficult, so I just gave up on my dreams and applied to the Foodstop instead and they hired me on the spot. I wonder sometimes though about the parallel universe me who got to be a barista back before that was even a word.

Dozens of pour over options and plenty of delicious pastries. If the space feels cramped and noisy it’s because it’s full of life; not something to give a cafe 4 stars over. Love those reviews...the Dirt Cowboy does a fantastic job with what they have to work with. It’s a great community spot and plenty of room for conversation.

Loved the cafe mocha, & the chocolate and almond croissants. Very nice service too. Outdoor seating out front. Highly recommended!

The most delicious ham and cheese croissant I’ve ever had!!

Great service, great food, amazing coffee. Try the Ethiopian Harrar - you won't regret it. Everything is brewed pour over to order! I haven't tried the espresso yet but I'm sure it's great as well

For 2 decades, Tom Guerre has offered the best coffee I have ever tasted. Always consistent. Always well trained staff. Cozy atmosphere. Great energy.

Had one of the best espressos of my life here- it wasn't especially strong, but the bitterness and sweetness were well balanced and though the acid came through it wasn't sour like the one from That chain.
