We are a cute, little cafe in the western mountains of Maine. We like good food. We like the earth. We like the word ish. We’d like you to come here. Our breakfast menu is small, but delish. We do bagels, breakfast sandwiches, burritos and homemade pastries. Our Lunch consists of large, inventive sandwiches made with top quality ingredients and love, salads, homemade soups and quiche. We also have a small kids menu. We make our own chai, real fruit & yogurt smoothies, homemade hot chocolate, Carrabassett Coffee & Espresso & Mighty Leaf tea all day! Come in and enjoy your meal here on a couch, take it to-go or call us ahead of time and we’ll have it ready for you!

Reviews
The staff was courteous and friendly (even with us masking due to my health), the bagels were everything and I forgot how much I love their golden milk and hot cocoa (we skipped the sweets, but the chocolate chip cookie was always a favorite and they look as good as ever in the display case).
We will definitely be frequenting more often again and we are sorry it took so long for us to visit again (we really loved the drive through up in Kingfield, but also love them closer to us here in Farmington).
The bagel yesterday was warm, gooey (with cheese) with a perfect egg (yolk was cooked for neatness but still had velvet) and the bacon was crisp without being salty.
Plus…bonus…they support workers rights and believe in the protection of employees (win-win).
Our money will be spent here more…much more often.
And I don’t have photos because we ate the sandwich before even getting home.
Thank you Morgan!
Update: March 2024 – We have visited here several times since my last review and it never disappoints. Yesterday I had the chance to try there breakfast burrito with sausage. WOW! what a treat. Hardy and full of flavor, just the right amount of there home made salsa. They have also added more seating with a new bar and some innovative rearrangement. The staff continues to be very pleasant and helpful.

This is not fiction.
When the soup was served, multiple servers came to the table, appeared genuinely shocked, apologized, and confirmed that pork sausage should never have been in a vegetarian dish. I was repeatedly told I would receive a refund for the $4 cup of soup.
Later, a manager came out, said she couldn’t find my transaction, and then stated, “if there even was sausage in the soup,” despite the staff having already admitting not knowing what was in the soup, who made the soup or when the soup was made. I never received the promised refund.
I’m sharing exactly what happened. What’s most concerning is not the original error, but the decision to dismiss it afterward rather than take responsibility, especially for a situation involving allergens and food safety.
It’s is sooo good. Such a funky and cute vibe. Two small outside tables and inside seating as well. They have wonderful wraps and sandwiches as well as daily soups and special that are amazingly tasty. They also have coffees and a nice tea selection. We have gone here many times and it’s great every time.
There’s also free 2 hour parking on the street which is awesome.
There seems to always be a crowd here, which is great for business and speaks to the quality of the store’s offerings. Like any busy coffee shop/small eatery, it isn’t fast food but your wait won’t be intolerable either. The staff finds a great balance to get the orders done right and the customers leaving happy.
One of the best parts of small businesses is their actual ties to the community. Big box stores and corporations will run ads about their commitment to the community, but places like Orange Cat Café actually live that life every day. They participate in the town’s Halloween trick-or-treating events, they actively give back to the community, and they offer support and a place for friends to gather in a mountain town that is also a college town.
The only downside is their limited hours. While this hasn’t stopped the business from doing well, it does mean you’ll have to plan your time in Farmington accordingly. Orange Cat Café is a home run in every aspect and you’ll enjoy your meal there.
Very LGBTQIA+ friendly. Staff wears masks.
The atmosphere is cozy and colorful. The seating is comfortable. It’s a small Cafe with outside seating. I love the lights and the plants. They’re open 10am-3pm everyday and breakfast ends around 11ish.
The “Garden Tuna” is fresh, crunchy, and flavorful. The “Soup of the Day” is always worth it.
