The Shanty Cafe

We stopped in at about 1 PM on a Saturday in January 2024 for lunch. We had quiche without meat, but they do have a meat one also. We also had the duo turkey sandwich and salad. Both were served within 10 minutes. We enjoyed the lunch. We were able to customize the order. Table seemed to have some crumbs on it, that were not visible but we could feel them. Clean restroom. The staff was very friendly to us.

Stopped by and decided to get a salad for carryout. Ordered the salad special with fresh strawberries! Delicious! The strawberries were sweet! Tried two of their homemade dressings...Fabulous! Will definitely be back!

Delicious food and beautiful plates..
I’m very happy whit my breakfast❤❤
Thank you so much🙏🏽

If you're a real coffee drinker, (and boy am I ever!) then you need to come visit. It was cold caffeine for us today. The cold brew is as rich and deep as I've had anywhere, dressed exactly as I liked with great personal attention. A pumpkin spice latte, that most scoffed at of fall drinks, had all the goodness of handcrafting.
Come get some!

Adorable little cafe that has a great lunch menu and good coffee, it’s in a perfect spot and outside seating has a nice view of the little town. The inside is clean and simple and the staff are very nice. Great addition to Darien.

Awesome cafe serving up delicious breakfast, lunch and coffee. Locally owned and operated spot with fresh house made menu items. Weekly specials are always great! Dog friendly patio and great grass lawn for kids to run around

Charming coffee shop! The lattes are yummy. They have sandwiches too! Fresh cut flowers, good vibes 😎

Love the new cafe in this location! Coffee made just how I like it(I'm a wimp with caffeine in the morning), breakfast sandwiches(4) were all hot and tasty and stacked to perfection! Dope merchandise also. I missed the new hats by 3 days but they said they could ship me one! Great service and experience!

The cranberry orange scones are delicious. We had the McIntosh dark chocolate latte..very good.

Nice little Cafe by the river. Have seating outside or inside. Good food nice people!

Stopped in here after going to Fort King George, and got a Frozen Caramel Latte with 2 espresso shots instead of one. I'm a Starbucks man, even worked there for a while, but this drink was EVEN BETTER THAN STARBUCKS! You could taste the freshness and the roasted flavor of the coffee/espresso. It's been two days and I'm still craving another one. I'm going to have to go back and buy a back of their coffee bc it was so good!
Also, the young lady who was the barista was very friendly!

The breakfast is amazing, and the owners really try to make the experience wonderful!

Love this place! It has a nice, relaxing atmosphere. The coffee is amazing and the pastries are so good! Everyone was super friendly. We will definitely be back!!

Adorable little cafe, great spot to stop in for lunch. The staff was friendly, and the sandwiches were delicious! We will definitely stop back in next time we’re in town!

They have really great coffee, the morning keish is their yummy thing.
They are even serving icecream sandwiches handmade now... I gotta go try one!

Great coffee and quiches in a cozy space

Love this place! Great service, chill atmosphere, and incredible house made pastries. The savory biscuit was perfection.

Great food and great people!

Best Coffee Shop in Town!
