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!

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.

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.

Sun filled, pleasant oasis! I loved the serene atmosphere, art and zines on display, and my latte and avocado toast. It’s a good spot to sit and do writing or to meet someone for a chat. And the same loyalty card you can use at the bus works here too! (1 small suggestion - the carpet underneath the orange leather chairs slides around a little bit, might be good to stick a carpet pad under)

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

Fabulous coffees! My favorite is the latte with oat milk all blended/steamed together. Yum! The staff is always friendly, welcoming and I highly recommend supporting them. They have artisan crafted gifts for purchase as well. A nice assortment of pieces by local artists.

I like to buy espresso beans from here. They are freshly roasted, and reasonably priced. I like the way they draw coffee cup on the bag/pack- it’s cool!
