Fabulous Coffee and Excellent Service

by coffeeconnoisseur

This is the best coffee on the seacoast with a great variety of roasts and flavors. The lattes are amazing and they know how to make a good cappucinno as well. The staff is efficient and friendly even when the line is out the door. I would highly reccomend Breaking New Grounds to anyone looking for a great coffee and a nice atmosphere to enjoy it in.

• Pros: Great selection of coffees, friendly service, and a fun place to sit and enjoy it!
• Cons: a little pricey

best iced coffee

by aimeeh

I visit this shop 4/5 days a week. I love their iced coffee and the service is usually fast and friendly. I just wished that they would use recyclable carry out cups. I will be bringing my own travel cup from now on but for the many people who wont do that it's a shame they can't just use recyclable plastic.

Rudest Staff anywhere

by AaronMA

Famously curt, rude, and obnoxious staff. Fantastic coffee and cookies, but have been treated so rudely that I will not go back. Five stars on the coffee ... owner needs to think about training the staff and managers in customer service. Known though Portsmouth for poor cust service unfortunately :(

• Pros: great coffee/okay tea
• Cons: service with a sarcastic snicker
