Food was great. however the restaurant is using a buddha statue for decoration. it’s inappropriate and insensitive. the statue is being used for appropriation, not appreciation purposes. as someone who’s thai and family is buddhist, we were all quite offended when we walked into the restaurant. buddha’s are used for spiritual purposes not to enhance a restaurant’s aesthetic environment. do better pls!

We love this place!! The challahs are incredible, the vibes are great and anytime we need a restaurant/fast casual type place to go - this is it. They have tons of gluten free, paleo, and vegan options. Westport is lucky to have The Granola Bar!

Favorite breakfast/lunch spot, the menu and presentation is top notch and the lattes are so good. I wish we had better service and that the waiters would check in for water refills, bring coffee quicker etc but the place is always packed so I get it. Will still HAPPILY return 🙌🏻 🥑

Buddha Bowl was great, as was the Bubby. My son loved the mint hot chocolate smoothie (milkshake). Chicken chili serving was pretty small, but everything was delicious.

Food is decent. 4 stars because I went in today to pick up my food and after I paid i went to go take my bag off of the shelf and the other cashier (standing 2 ft away) was like “HEY, you gotta come over here and pay for that if it’s yours.” Thought it was a bit rude he assumed I was robbing the joint :/

We recommend the Afternoon Delight parfait, Buffalo chicken wrap and the taco bowl

Good food and coffee. We were happy to see they serve Toby’s Estate. It’s easy to miss this spot while driving down Post Road as it’s tucked way into the left side of shopping center, but definitely a cute spot we would return to when in Westport and would go have brunch there next time (we came for lunch). I would have liked if there were comfy couches for more casual sitting or working as there aren’t enough local spots that offer that.

Not my cup of tea but if you are into natural & healthy food, this is the place for you.We had wraps which were very good, served with a side salad.

Great location. Ok food. Ok service. Its frustrating when I place large $100+ orders multiple times a week but they constantly have forgotten or wrong items in the orders. All in all, ok lunch spot if youre in the area and want to be a bit healthier but nothing special

Great food but they need to be more careful of walk-in vs online orders. I sat in the store for 20 mins waiting for my walk-in order only to find it sitting on the pickup shelf. No one called my name. I want local places like this to make it so will be back.

Delicious avocado toast, granola bars, and lattes! Especially enjoy their Turkish latte with cardamom, vanilla, and cinnamon. Lunch sandwiches are also a delight, with fresh ingredients and great flavor.

I probably should give 2 separate reviews.Excellent food! I want to say the only fresh, healthy breakfast place around the area. Way nicer than Fairfield location. Service - kind, smiling and helpful.Now...bathrooms - disgusting!!!!! I know, unfortunately, nothing out of ordinary around in our area - but this place supposed to be fresh, new, and healthy - so bathrooms cannot have dirty sinks, tiles with dirt like someone did not clean them in years, splashed faucets and mirrors. what hurts is that this place, is relatively new so how can you allow not cleaning. Please hire a cleaning service for once. Next time I will take pictures.

The food is awesome and good for you. I’m quite disappointed in the plastic cups and straws though- this place would be a home run if they could ditch the plastic and use environmentally friendly products. Will you please?

After paying 15 dollars for a yogurt and a tea, I got back to my office to eat. My order was wrong, before I left I specifically asked if it was correct and assured it was. Than I called up to ask if I can come back to the store and swap for something different. Offered to pay the difference. Told me they can remake the same order but not get something different . After driving 10 minutes there and 10 minutes back calling the phone number 4 times without answer. I decided to say never mind and I will not be coming back here. No apology, no offer to make things right. I Have spent 100s of dollars in this store over the last month since I started working in Westport via pickup orders by my assistant. I will not return !

The latte with almond milk was delicious. Creamy and tasty! The waitresses were very attentive and made sure we had a great time there. Will come back again :)

Review №24

Venue is modern and clean. Cappuccino was delicious but took 20 minutes to arrive at our table. Food was fine, but not worth the price and took 40 minutes for breakfast to come out. I think it was our waiter more than anything because the table next to us had a much friendlier server and was fed before us despite arriving 20 minutes after us.

I really love coming here for tea or other hot drinks. The staff are friendly, drinks are good and I like the interior.My go to drink here is the chai tea which they make really well. They let me put it in my own personal cup as well :)The location of this spot sucks though its always extremely crowded and parking is a pain. It can also get quite crowded inside making it uncomfortable to wait.Good spot overall

The Avocado toast was excellent. The service was fast and efficient and The 203 sandwich was perfection!

Re
Review №29

The avocado toast was delicious. Had it on gluten free bread. Also had the breakfast burrito, but in a bowl to avoid the gluten. The waitress was very accommodating. My husband had the Nutella latte which was delicious - not too sweet as we’ve had it at another place. Was nice that they seem to serve breakfast all day. 👍

I found this bar by accident because I am opening a business nearby. I have been using it regularly for the past 6 months and despite it always being busy the staff are friendly and do their best to please. I have never felt under pressure to buy more food or drink, despite using their WIFI and having meetings on site. Great place, lovely people and amazingly delicious food - and Im a serious foodie! Love it.

Review №31

We frequently visit for the coffee and healthy breakfast options. Food is tasty and service is quite friendly. The price point of the menu is my biggest complaint - you just need to recognize that a cute, clean restaurant serving healthy and different diet conscious food, that also is located walking distance to Westport downtown, has to pay their rent somehow 😉

Review №33

Amazing menu. Super yummy vegan, gluten free, vegetarian options. Casual and funky environment with outdoor seating as well. Prices are quite reasonable. If you have a hankering for a nutrition packed, delectable meal (or snack), I highly recommend checking out the Granola Bar!

Review №34

A little bit loud and tables are quite close together, so not the best place for a confidential or intimate conversation, however the food is super-fresh and creative, and the vibe is surprisingly friendly and laid-back for Westport. A good place to get a healthy meal with a good friend you dont mind speaking loudly to. Also good for a cup of coffee, chai, iced tea, etc., and they have a grab & go area with baked goods.

We were passing through the area and stopped for a sit-down breakfast. Its a cozy spot with plenty of healthy options. Love the gluten free and paleo bread items available. The French toast was amazing, as well as the avocado toast on flax paleo bread. Cappuccino was yum and service friendly.

Review №37

Always love going here, the staff has been kind and helpful from the beginning and at this point they we have learned each others names and have become even more friendly. Ive met both of the owners as well, they are welcoming, attentive and always make sure you are being served or your needs are being met -I cant stand around waiting for my coffee to be made without someone asking if I am being helped (which is a good thing!) I usually get an iced mocha which has not been too bitter but not too sweet and I like that they do not use a powdered mocha mix so its not chalky either. Ive had their regualr coffee as well and it doesnt taste over roasted or burned! I am giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 because I havent tried the food yet!

Review №38

I always give the benefit of the doubt and understand that nothing could ever, be perfect at all times. Hence why instead of posting a bad review, I directly e-mailed HQ a month ago. Of course, never got a response. Paid $12 for a browned avocado toast with huge pieces of avocado skin in it. Such disappointing low quality both in customer service from HQ as well as food. Come on guys, seriously? At least workers at this location are super nice, though.

Review №43

Granola bar has gone way down hill. Muffins are prepackaged now. Made me get out of line to go back to the cooler to look for a muffin that they ended up not having. Never coming here ever again. The cashier just gave me a blank stare. The last time we are here, we finished our breakfast before our coffee came. But not after asking three different times and then finally stating that coffee needs to be removed from our bill. They were literally holding us captive at our table while there was a line out the door. Why have kept coming here? Its the only place in town that makes coffee that doesnt taste like it was brewed in a toilet. But Im done now.

Used to love this place, but the service has become horrible and the staff are harried and rude. Obviously poorly managed. Sad really as the food is still good. Itll just take 45 minutes to get it....AFTER YOUVE BEEN SEATED. and when I complained, my servers answer was other people are waiting too! After which she walked away. So if youre hungry and in Westport, avoid this place. The taste of the food suffers when youre angry as hell.

The customer service was horrible! Put an order in, when I picked up half of the order was missing despite the fact that I had to repeat it twice at the time I called in. They tried to remedy, however they still got it wrong and wanting me to pay again, the staff was rude and incompetent! Its time to boycott this place and find a new one! This was not the first time that they got the order wrong,

This restaurant is always packed on weekends. The parking lot is also hard to find a space in. The food though is fantastic and the restaurant has a great vibe. I think its the design inside.

I decided to bring my kid here, big mistake, I had the misfortune of being seated next to the women who own the business, and Ive never heard such a volley of fecal jokes, all they talked about was the size and shape of their bowel movements, two blonde women talking about their scat fetish isnt what youd picture is funding this store but sadly thats what me and my 11 year old daughter were exposed to. The food is garbage, and sadly now I have to question the obsession with feces from these womens mouths, do they put feces in the food?

Review №61

Horrible experience and I want people to know about it. Please don’t trust this business, they lie to you.I was given caffeinated coffee instead of the decaf, same as my friend. What is a big deal about it? She is recovering from a heart surgery and I have a very high blood pressure, so I am extremely sensitive to caffeine and can drink only decaf coffee. As you can imagine, caffeine can kill me because after you take your blood pressure medicine and later drink coffee... imagine the rest which includes words like cardiac arrest and heart attack. So if you trust the business, pronounce DECAF multiple times, then repeat it again and get caffeinated caffeine... Imagine my thrill when I started loosing consciousness half an hour after drinking coffee and saw my friend’s pale face feeling the same. It was caffeinated, and the only way to tell it looking at the cup of coffee, oh no, there is no way but to trust that business and drink it.So to the management of this business - no, people don’t order decaf for the fun of it. Caffeine can kill me and it is not fun to feel bad. People who don’t have these medical conditions don’t understand, but it is a business of selling coffee. How can I trust you now?

The customer service is terrible. They seem very unorganized behind the take out counter. The guy taking take out orders talked on his phone while my order sat on the counter, it wasnt until he told another employee he put it in a bag on the counter and let it sit there for 5 minutes. Im surprised that this flies at such a popular and busy establishment.
