Red Rose Cafe, located at 125 Lebanon Ave in Colchester, CT, is a delightful gem that excels in serving hearty breakfasts and brunches. Patrons rave about the inviting atmosphere, friendly service, and a menu bursting with flavors. Customer Yevgeniya Pechenaya describes the French Toast special as "moist" and "stuffed with apples," harmoniously paired with bacon to balance its sweetness, while frequent visitors commend the Western omelets as a breakfast staple.

Jason Lambert found the breakfast sandwich and coffee bar exceptional, highlighting the bakery’s offerings as a reason to return. The hustle and friendliness of the staff add to the cafe's charm, creating a warm and welcoming haven for diners. Tim Dwyer appreciated the hearty Biscuits & Gravy and dark roast coffee, noting the cafe's cleanliness and ample seating options, both inside and out. For Sara Genzlinger, the paninis were a delightful surprise, capped off with a “DELICIOUS” pecan bourbon tart that left her eager to return.

Red Rose Cafe perfectly balances quality and comfort, and it is clear that each dish is crafted with care, making every visit feel special. If you're in the area, don't miss this local favorite for a fulfilling dining experience.

Excellent breakfast and brunch place. It is small, but it makes sense for a local spot in a small town. I've eaten here several times now and I am yet to be dissapointed. This time I had the French Toast special french toast was moist, stuffed with apples and topped with whipped cream and spinkled with cinnamon. Got a side of bacon to offset the sweetness of the french toast. It was the perfect breakfasts. My friends had Western omelets that are their go to here for breakfast

What a great little find! Excellent breakfast sandwich, excellent coffee bar, excellent breakfast pastries. Can't wait to go back! The ladies working were crazy busy but still very friendly and helpful. The menu is full of things I want to come back and try. I ordered a sausage egg and cheese on everything bagel and it was so much better than the same thing at other places. Great job!

Our first visit although we have been wanting to go for years but live a couple towns away. We ordered Biscuits & Gravy and an everything bagel with cream cheese. Both came quickly and were sizeable and tasty. They have a selection of coffees. Our choice, the dark roast was very good. Service was friendly. Restaurant was clean and bright. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Many customers walk here from the surrounding area. There seems to be ample parking. Can't wait to go back to try lunch.

Came here on a whim with my husband and baby. The food was amazing (we both had paninis) and the servers were so wonderful. Also got a pecan bourbon tart to take home and it was DELICIOUS. We can't wait to come back!

The staff was very friendly and answered all of our questions. The homemade pastries along with some make your own sandwiches were very delicious. Highly recommend.

Love this place. 1st time experience and it was great. There were only 2 waitresses and they nailed service, quick and straight to the point. I definitely recommend their fish and chips. Big portions, enough to share among 2 people. The fries are the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly seasoned and the crispy exterior that most diners get with home fries. If you’re not in the mood for fish and chips, definitely add fries to any meal.

I absolutely love this place! A little hidden gem, food is always excellent and forget about the melt in your mouth sweet baked goodness. Hard to not order one of everything. The staff are exceptional to say the least, always attentive and kind. Regardless of how busy it is there, quality of service or food is NEVER sacrificed. I only wish they were open later so I can order dinner from there in addition to breakfast and lunch! Thank you all for being great!

Wowzers. The caprese panini was absolutely delicious. I devoured the whole thing. The seating area is very small but the inside is so cute and the glass case is full of amazing desserts. I got a massive oatmeal cream pie and it was fantastic. I also got a square of chocolate cake which was also very rich and delicious. I'm excited to go back again one day soon and try other things from the menu.
