Well, this is the third coffee shop in downtown Delaware I have tried and I found my favorite. Great coffee and specialty drinks, and amazing food. Food is made fresh to order in back kitchen and was delicious. Very clean food prep and dining areas.Staff was polite and very informative about their menu. They took the time to customize my order.Great areas to sit and talk with friends or do some work if needed.I will definitely be back and this is now my go to for coffee and goodies in downtown Delaware.

On the same block as the hamburger Inn is a wonderful bakery and coffee shop called fresh start Café and Bakery. We discovered them quite by accident. Usually, I go to coffee place had been carphology, but the last two trips to Delaware coffee had been weirdly closed or had weird hours leaving us stranded in the city without coffee. We did a yelp search and found that there was a coffee shop less than a block away, which was fresh start café so we cross the street and walked a half a block to a tiny storefront located in the middle of the block. We walked in and we're completely impressed just from the moment we stepped in.Super clean shop, bright and cheerful big goods displayed in an organized, easy to see manner in two or three large cases. The quality of the baked goods looked excellent. We looked up and there was just so many menu items all easy to read on the menu board that hung on the wall behind the counter. We decided to get some baked goods, a breakfast sandwich and two coffees, and we didn't regret any of it. They were all beyond five starsWhat did we get you might ask? We got: A bacon egg and cheese biscuit: really high-quality bacon so flavorful very generous amount egg was a fresh egg cracked there cooked their fresh. The perfect amount of cheese on top of a house made biscuit that was a good size and quite flavorful. We wanted to split the biscuit and they even wrapped it in two separate halves outstanding customer service outstanding presentation And just the perfect egg sandwich. In my opinion. Haven't had one better in Columbus area, which I include Delaware in (even though it's not)Then we got a spinach roll and a pepperoni roll to eat later both excellent the pepperoni roll was a little better than the spinach roll, but I bet the spinach roll would've been amazing if I had eaten it there warmed up... I was at a dog show, and I ate it the way they gave it to me, which was out of the case Still deliciousWe got a cut out cookie. I'm glad I took a bite of it when I first got it cause it was quite excellent, however, it sat in the car, which then got really hot, so the icing didn't do so great after eight or nine hours inside a hot car so I pitched it which was aa tragedy... Because the initial to buy, it were deliciousOur coffeesI got a pumpkin spice latte half sweet made with soy. It was great. I enjoyed every little tiny drop of it which I usually don't do. I usually drink half and pitch. This was worth every bit of calories.I think my husband got an Americano or a dark drip with cream. I can't remember but his was gone almost by the time we got to the car he said it was excellent.If you're in Delaware, there's three coffee options all within two blocks of each other and I'm telling you this spot... It's the home run. This is where you should end up at. It's perfection.

I stopped by to grab a bite. I usually get coffee here and so glad to try their sandwich line up. Each of them sounds unique and you can select either with bagel or biscuit.I got the Club sandwich with biscuit. Club sandwich is always one of favorite and having it with their biscuit just take it to another level. The crust is crisp and cheesy and soft on the inner part. Along with the different classic layer of the Club sandwich. Highly recommended. The also have a full line up of pastry and sweets available. Of course, their coffee menu can't be forgotten. If you happen to be around the Downtown Delaware Ohio area, make sure to check them out.

Had a great experience here! I got a stracciatella milkshake and it was to die for. Service was friendly and everything looked delicious. Even got some pup cups for my dogs! Can't wait to try to berry muffin in the morning.

Popped into Fresh Start for the first time today after breakfast. The sign out front featured Apple pie chai and I just had to try it. The cafe is a nice size and bright, with good seating areas. We were promptly greeted and gave our orders, the service was very fast. If I hadn't already eaten I would have tried one of the amazing looking pastries, but now I have another excuse to come back. The iced apple pie chai was good, but the chai flavor could have been stronger. It looks like they serve Crimson Cup coffee, which is always pretty solid. Glad to have discovered a new little cafe and can't wait to try more of their offerings.

So, stop waiting until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until winter, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink.... there is no better time than right now to be happy.

Very cute bakery and cafe. The service was very friendly and helpful. I ordered a red eye with an extra espresso shot and learned that it's called a black eye. Who knew? I'm always learning. We had the egg bowls which is 4 eggs and 4 toppings and it was very well cooked and seasoned. I could have used a little more spinach but, overall, I was very happy and very full. The pastry case was beautiful and tempting . We tried a cinnamon roll with cream cheese and it was delicious. The whole place was very clean. I will definitely be back!

Was excited to check out a new coffee shop on the Delaware coffee trail. The menu boards were malfunctioning so it really wasn't possible to see what the available options were. While talking to the staff member, another staff member came up and interrupted the conversation by asking about charging their phone. On too of that, the drink ended up being sub par. I ended up pouring it out and going to Coffeeology across the street, which was a much better drink. I will say that the pastries looked delicious, and some of the teas they had for sale smelled really good.
