I just happened to drive past as building was burning down, smelt very good, made me hungry. Over all 10/10 for smelling that good durring a crisis and making me hungry, i have never eaten here but now im very interested. Genius marketing strategy, worked great,im very impressed.

I’m from NH but was lucky enough to drive by this afternoon. The gentleman behind the counter (owner) could not have been more inviting. The place has an awesome vibe. Oh yeah, the coffee was great too :) thanks guys!

Wow, where do I even begin? If I could give 10 stars I would (keep reading to find out why!).In what has been a trying year as we’ve endured the pandemic, my frequent trips to Little Wolf have been the bright spot, a haven if you will, I never knew I needed in such difficult times. As someone who is passionate about coffee and loves to enjoy it with good company, I’m loyal customer and avid fan of Little Wolf!They deliver every. single. time. Every item on their menu is carefully thought through. It is simple but carefully sourced and hand curated each time. It’s one of few places in specialty coffee in the area where you can consistently expect single origin espresso.Whatever you order on the menu, expect it to be packed full of flavor! Chris is meticulous on the roasting side of things as well - they carefully source their beans and constantly produce excellence! Grab a bag to brew at home and take Little Wolf wherever you go. Kalvin behind the bar provides fantastic and friendly customer service, and a great pour every time (he also caters - check out KidDream.)Need I go on? I could rave all day, but in all, Little Wolf provides a friendly, accessible, and life changing experience of specialty coffee. Go to Little Wolf. It’s that simple.

Great little coffee shop, such a sweet and unexpected find. Very helpful staff; pastries are well-balanced (not too sweet but still flavorful); and of course the coffee was delicious and high quality! If I didnt live in Boston Id be here all the time.

Fresh roasted coffee and delicious pastries. Not fancy but super reasonable prices.

Excellent find! We discovered this place when they were featured as the best coffee shop in Massachusetts on Food & Wine’s website. We ordered a vanilla latte, regular coffee and a blueberry muffin and they were all very tasty. The vanilla latte had the appropriate amount of vanilla syrup to make it a delicious Flavored latte. The muffin was still fresh, even at 2 o’clock in the afternoon. The service was exceptionally nice as we chatted briefly about the shop and the surrounding neighborhood. Little Wolf is located 45 minutes from Boston but it’s well worth the effort to make the trip. We’ll be back!

There’s a reason this place has won awards. I got the drip coffee straight up black. It had a ton of flavor. My wife got the local honey latte and it was amazing. This is truly the best cup of coffee around.

Great coffee outpost in Ipswich. Roastery is inside this building along side a simple cafe setup.Coffee sat on the fruity acidic side which complemented the grey day outside. Great cup, great job Little Wolf!

I would say Little Wolf is the best coffee roster on the North Shore, but their greatness spans much farther than that. Best coffee roaster of New England and beyond! Little Wolf offers a great variety with something for everyone. I love complex, nuanced coffee and Little Wolf delivers on this every time. Great pastries for sale too. Absolutely love Little Wolf!

I really wanted to like this place more. Nice people and vibe. Seem to take coffee seriously, but my Americano was just okay. I used to have a coffee business, and have high standards. Will try again at some point.

Review №24

A very cute place with a nice atmosphere and incredible service. Ordered by phone and everything was ready in just a few minutes. The chilled coffee with honey I ordered wasn’t 100% my favorite but it had a very nice and strong aroma to it. I might have to try a different drink next time. The pastries were wonderful. Will be back!

Yesterday 21st of January 2021 I got the Colombian whole beans and use the pour-over method it came out very nice its a little pricey compared to other roasters I tried but you get what you pay for in this day in age and plus I live in Ipswich and like to support local businesses The Man Behind the Counter was very knowledgeable and polite and even gave me a sample of the coffee before I bought it

Review №31

My favorite coffee Ive ever had, and its right here in Ipswich of all places. Incredible roaster, incredible cafe, and incredible owners. You can tell their roaster operation is taking off, and its because of their skill, care, and their adorable & fun Little Wolf brand. I dont know how theyve done it, but Chris and Melissa have just put on a clinic on how to start a small business in a small town while fomenting local interest in specialty coffee and expanding a roasting operation at the same time, all while being incredibly friendly and artful in their day to day cafe operation. I dont know how they do it but Im in awe. You guys are amazing!

Review №39

Love, love, love this place. Absolute gem in a retrofit garage across from the Ipswich high school. The husband and wife team are obviously passionate about what they do and that translates through the easy and natural conversations they stroke up with you or the excitement when explaining a product. The decor is minimalist, inviting and the wall of glass is wonderful. Check this place out and dont just support local...go and enjoy one killer cup of coffee.

I hate to give this spot the rating I know it deserves because it may help result in it being discovered and then it will be hard to get in !Number one, we were there late in the day and they still took us in and treated us royally !Friendly service, top notch lattes with very clever patterns on top, delicious pastries, and very clever surroundings !Cant wait to go back !

Review №41

This place will warm your soul. Excellent coffee that they also self-roast and distribute. Extremely friendly owners that are real and welcoming.If you’re looking for a good spot to hunker down and get some work done, they have a few seats and free wifi. Most importantly, they don’t have the noisiest coffee grinder known to mankind, which apparently every other coffee shop in the world has. Ever taken a phone call or try to read something and suddenly they get that grinder going and it sounds like AARRRGGHHDBSVCBXJANAAARRRRSGDHMGFNBAFZCACAAAFAFFRRRRRRRRRRR at 7 million decibels in the background? You know what I’m talking about. Anyways, I haven’t experienced that here!

Love Little Wolf! One of the best roasters in the country just so happens to be right here in our backyard. Coffee, tea, and pastries (to die for!), they keep it simple. The wifi is free, the coffee doesnt get better, and the vibe is amazing.

Review №43

Very good cappuccino and a nice selection of muffin/scone/cookie. Mainly a coffee roast set up working to have a place where you can get coffee..and relax....bare bones with stools and a side room with chairs and tables... but friendly and the more of us who go the better it gets I suspect.

Easily one of the best cups of coffee I’ve ever had (there’s a reason they were rated #1 coffee in mass!). The couple that runs the place clearly cares so much for each customer and the community at large, truly setting this place apart from the pack.

Review №55

LOVE the furniture and decor (first thing I noticed) and the simplicity of the menu and therefor ordering was quick. The owner (I think) let me know I could pick a seat and he would bring my latte over when it was ready. I chose the long bar that faces their roasting machine and coffee bean area. Very cool. My latte was absolutely perfect. Milk was steamed perfectly, espresso was perfectly balanced. I texted a few friends while I was there telling them they had to check it out!

Review №56

One of the best coffee shops north of Boston, if not in all of MA. Its obvious that a great amount of care and detail goes into both roasting every batch of coffee and brewing a cup for you to stay or go. Always a joy to stop in, whether snagging a cup to go or hanging out for a bit.
