What our guests say on Yelp
★★★★★ Rated 5 out of 5
“Loved this place. First time here. I had the Turkish coffee service and a Marlenka honey cake. The owner was very kind and showed me how he made the coffee. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The premises are clean, comfortable and homey. A great place to wile away some time with this delightful coffee ritual. I’ll be back for sure..”

“A new discovery while in Keene this morning. Our breakfast was freshly prepared with great care. My sandwich was perfect, and my friend’s crepes were exceptional. Cordial proprietors, clean and relaxed atmosphere and excellent coffee. Next time I’ll try some of the European specialties!.”

MEET JANA
One baker, one recipe box, one fresh day at a time
Fresh Day Cafe grew from a family recipe box carried across the Atlantic. Owner and chief baker Jana makes everything from scratch — the way it was done at home in Slovakia.
What started as weekend pierogi for friends became a beloved Monadnock-region gathering place.
