It’s so nice to have a true hometown coffee shop right in the center of Guilford. Cilantro’s has that welcoming, local feel you want—comfortable, friendly, and easy to stop into. The food and drinks are consistently good, and the staff is always pleasant.
Special shout-out to Alex, who always makes the best chai tea with oat milk. It’s perfectly balanced every time. Grateful to have a spot like this in town.

Just had a a lovely experience at Cilantro Speciality foods and coffee roasters. The coffee was delicious and I had the best blueberry lemon scone ever. As a first time visitor to Guilford, I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised by the neighborhood feel, high quality of the food and the amazing service. I really felt like I was around family.

Was going to mystic & stopped by this small town for some coffee.
I had the pumpkin spice latte with sweet cold foam (instead of whipping cream) w oat milk & it was delicious. Not very sweet and very tasty
The service was also very great and patient with our group

I had the chicken salad with cranberry, almonds, and greens. The taste was incredible. My friend had the mozzarella, pesto and tomato served as a sandwich. She said she would have rated it a nine out of 10. Service was fairly quick because it’s sort of a deli format. The shop was clean and cute. We ate outside, which was quaint, as it is right near the Guildford Green. Cookies and muffins also looked good and could be back to try those.

I stopped in today before running errands for some much needed coffee. At check out, I asked Anna about the tray of scones that the baker was refilling. “Oh that’s our Peach Ginger scone,” she said and asked if she could put one in a bag for me! I wish that I had taken a pic of this amazing creation but it was gone in a flash! So good!! I highly recommend! Thank you to the bakers and staff for a lovely visit. Cilantro does not disappoint

This place is great! The food is delicious, the staff is happy to accommodate any special requests that they can and I’m always happy I went. I love that they have such a variety of options on the menu; always some flavor I’m craving. I’ve never gone wrong with the quiche of the day, so if I’m having a salad, and they still have some left, I’ll often bring a slice home for dinner (so yummy). Well done guys, see you soon!!

I’ve been coming to cilantro for 30 years. Still the best coffee in Connecticut. Friendly service, great great coffee. Long lines? No. Nice atmosphere, the guilford green, seating on the sidewalk and watch all the dogs walk by… nothing better

I stopped in this morning for my favorite double vanilla latte and decided to switch it up and get a piece of the iced pumpkin bread instead of my usual banana bread to enjoy on my commute into work. Everything that they bake here is amazing but this was pure sunshine! I’ll be back in the morning for round two! So grateful to have this landmark in our downtown! So good!
