MikeNovember 2, 2015Best coffee house in Portsmouth. There's a Starbucks across the street but you're a fool to choose it over Breaking New Grounds. Very friendly baristas.
One of my favorite coffee spots on planet earth. Smack-dab in the middle of beautiful Portsmouth,"BNG" has fantastic coffees, teas and snacks. Favorites: iced hazelnut coffee, Heath bar cookie. ☕️
Benjamin 🚀February 13, 2016The most iconic coffee joint in all of Portsmouth. Bring your book/laptop and kick back with a great hot coffee and snack 😄🇺🇸☕️!
Warning: their new large size is OBSCENE! But awesome if you want to go swimming in your cold beverage. No judgement.
Stephanie StaplesMay 18, 2015Best place to grab an iced coconut coffee and experience the best people watching spot Portsmouth has to offer!
Larisa GrollemondAugust 17, 2015Great place to hang out in central Portsmouth, try the hazelnut iced coffee!
Craig DesmaraisSeptember 24, 2014Great selection of exotic coffee and tea. Try the gelato and great dessert selection.
The frappes and iced teas are awesome. Definitely a must on a hot summer day!
Garric SullivanMay 3, 2013My first time here and it's instantly one of my favs. Great environment, great service, great coffee. All around a great place to just relax and enjoy the day.
Zoe MalliarosJuly 11, 2013The gelato is the most delicious around. I'd also suggest an iced mocha with coconut. Enjoy!
Jared CampbellDecember 12, 2016Perfect for people watching year round. Don't forget to vote at the cash register.

Tessa BAugust 11, 2014Incredible drinks! (Yummy cookies!) highly recommend stopping here for a treat!
Betty EsperanzaMay 30, 2011Try the decadent chocolate truffle tart- gluten free! You will not regret it and it's worth the price!!!
Inderpreet SinghAugust 21, 2014They roast their own beans! The coffee is decent with milk alternatives available.
Short blonde girl's latte skills are better than the tall blonde girl's. That's all the empiricism I have been afforded by the situation bit it been consistent.
Ask for a frequent buyer punch card, they generally don't offer. Get your 10th cup of coffee for free. Shazam.
They make the thickest, tastiest mocha around. Add one of their chocolate chunk cookies and a whip cream topper for a real treat.
Zaid AlAzzawiMarch 9, 2013The tea is awesome, make sure to get the table on the front corner, it got the best view on the square
Raymond ZhangJanuary 8, 2015I'll have a long black and she'll have a hot chocolate and we just sit and talk...
Kate K.October 16, 2011When it comes to bringing my laptop to a coffee shop to get work done, I prefer the Starbucks next door.
Amy AtomicDecember 26, 2012It's been said here before but it bears repeating: coconut iced coffee. You need to try it.
Ryan KellyDecember 11, 2011If you drink your coffee inside, and it's in a paper/"to-go" cup, you are a bad person. Yeah, I said it.
Food & WineApril 21, 2011This popular café with plenty of outdoor seating has a prime location on Market Square.
cody SFebruary 21, 2012This is were all the tourists get there weak coffee. Great location for people watching and lingering but not good for coffee drinking.
They've added a larger size for iced beverages so what used to be a large is now a medium!
Marc DoleApril 16, 2010All the Teas are loose leaf and taste amazing. They have the Best Chai, Homemade not syrup!
love this place... coconut iced coffee and I are like THIS.... the liquid sugar is the best part...
