The Jitter Bus

It's how a cafe should be. Great coffee, delicious small bites, spacious and bright with art from local artists. We ordered flat white, latte and dirty chai, all of them were amazing. The latte was the best with perfect balance of coffee and milk where you can taste the mild acidity of coffee without it being bitter. The flat white was great too, a tiny bit too hot but tasted amazing after it cooled down slightly. Dirty chai is essentially fall in a cup. Loved the sweet cinnamon touch. Each drink is served in a unique handmade ceramic mug, adding more character to the drink. We were lucky to find the bus parked in the lot. It was fun to see how well it's arranged. Highly recommend for anyone who is visiting New Haven.

Just off I-91 and I-95 in New Haven, this little coffee shop was a perfect spot for a morning coffee and scones before heading to IKEA. Staff was super chilled, local folks came and went, some taking the time to sit and chat. Seems to be dog-friendly. Highly recommended.

This Jitter Bus Coffee Shop is a very cool place to hang out. You will surely enjoy their excellent Coffee and the sandwiches they offer. Not to forget their Brownies and delicious Cookies. Their price is so reasonable for a very good Coffee and healthy Sandwiches. Customer Service is par excellence! You’re doing a great job, The Jitter Bus! Keep it up!

The Jitter Bus cafe is a great place to meet up with friends (and make new ones), chat with others, or work by yourself! Each time I have popped in, the staff has been beyond kind, the service exceptional, the atmosphere comforting, and the fellow customers friendly. The drinks are always great and the food menu is simple but high quality! I highly recommend popping in here whether you intend to stay for a while or opt for take out.

Jitter Bus Coffee is the biz. The espresso pulls are legit, the staff is friendly, the space is full of light and levity, parking is ample, and I haven't had a drink that I have not enjoyed. This is a locally owned independent business, who supports other independent CT businesses (beans are from GIV) and you can tell how much love and hard work has been done to get this spot opened. Support this spot, New Haven and the world needs more places like this. In addition, the pink kahmel syrup is super addictive, so stay away from that.

I love this place. Beautiful, open space with lots of light. Ample seating, comfortable chairs, incredibly clean and inviting. I had a raspberry scone and a dirty chai with oat milk—both were perfect. I’m still thinking about the dirty chai, definitely going back for another tomorrow. Service was fast and friendly. Some people were in and out, some people stayed to work on laptops. Plenty of outlets, and good music playing softly. Also, we learned most of the art on the walls is done by local skaters. So cool! The owners talked with my dad for a lonnng time, reminiscing about the area they’re in (they’re across the street from where lollipops were invented! 🍭) and we both left smiling. Make time to stop here! It’s 100% worth it. Get the dirty chai.

We broke our “keep trying new places” rule in our trip because this coffee shop was so good, we came back the second day. House-made syrups. Great flavor. The latte I had felt like it was better than my go-to favorite local latte. Boyfriend used to be a barista and it got his stamp of approval.

Stylish bus, extremely quick service. Drinks are good, I appreciate the unsweetened option.
