Latte I had was simply perfect in taste and texture. If I had to nitpick it was just slightly cooler than I prefer, but that really is nitpicking. The place blows the Bean away and is worth the very slight detour from town. Friendly staff and comfy vibe.

The place is small and has a ckean, uncluttered feel. The serving area is small but it is worth going to. The espresso drinks are constantly great. A wonderful local place I would visit often.

This little coffee shop was the perfect place to grab a coffee and catch up on some work. It is also one of the only coffee shops on the island.

Amazing coffee and cool vibe. Very comfortable to bring your laptop and work the morning away or meet a friend and chat. Our dog loves the Bark Bar outside too!

I live a few blocks away from Blue Bottle Coffee in Brooklyn so all my coffee comparisons are based on them as a standard. Handlebar is ok. Nice people, nice place, but if you are used to Blue Bottle or Stumptown, then Handlebar is just is ok…

This was a gem of a little café near the bus terminal in the downtown area. It is slightly hidden but if you find it, you will not be disappointed. Inside there are a handful of tables to relax at if you need to get off your feet. They have your standard caffeine fix and I would highly recommend the espresso as it was strong and flavorful. They had a limited food menu, but it seemed like everything was prepared to order which was nice. Overall the prices were fair, service was quick and friendly and the barista was even Italian so you know it has to be good :) Enjoy.

Ok, so we’ve visited Nantucket a handful of times and our typical coffee stop is at Downey Flake while grabbing some donuts. However, this year we stumbled on the Handlebar Café, and WOW! We like our coffee with cream and sugar(to hide the BITTER taste), but HONESTLY, the coffee beans are so good, you don’t need sugar ATALL! Great place to hang out and friendly service to boot! Ask about the story behind the coffee beans!

Probably the best cappuccino I’ve ever had! Delicious flavor, smooth finish. The café space is fresh yet cozy and very comfortable. We’ll find a way to get there a few more times before vacation is over. 5 stars in my book.

Good iced coffee. I would expect them to have great espresso drinks, but I didn’t get one myself.

Recently jumped to the top of my list on island for several reasons. A good reflection of the owner’s interests(bikes, coffee, atmosphere, style) and good coffee options. Reasonable place to hang out — not loud, crazy, or too quiet either — just right. Go Jason and Courtney. And thanks!

I was very impressed with my drink. The café was a hole in the wall which I love(especially for cafes). I ordered the mocha latte just for a little snack and it was amazing. The best mocha latte I have ever had. If you happen to be walking around Downtown Nantucket definitely go to the Handlebar Café. The best coffee I have ever had.

I’m a self-proclaimed coffee snob and I’m always looking for a great cup of coffee during my travels. A Nantucket native took us to the Handlebar the first day we were here and we returned every day for the next 4! The drip coffee is quite nice and the lattes my wife ordered(decaf w/almond milk) were excellent. The kids behind the counter were friendly and helpful. There’s a nice place to sit inside and an equally nice area outside. We sat outside by the sweater-wearing tree and enjoyed our coffees while becoming acquainted with several local dogs who had brought their owners out for a walk.

Best latte I’ve ever had. Seriously delicious, no sugar needed. It’s such a great place, friendly and arty. Great vibe. Owners are wonderful.

Perfect. That’s the word to describe the Handlebar Café. It’s nicely situated on the east side of town near Main St. Very cute and friendly café. Loved the local artwork that was on display. The coffee was excellent — definitely our new go-to coffee spot whenever we’re in Nantucket. We had seen the owners Jason and Courtney on HGTV’s House Hunters. So we introduced ourselves to Jason, who was very nice and shared how they came about starting the Handlebar Café. It was great to see how they’ve made the café into a central community gathering spot. As we sat outside drinking our coffee, it was great to see the number of locals stopping to grab coffee in the mid afternoon. It’s such a nice spot, we had to come back a few more times during our Nantucket stay. Handlebar Café gets an A+ in my book. Looking forward to returning to Nantucket — and visiting the Handlebar Café again.

It’s been years since there was a place for passable coffee and espresso beverages, and this is light years beyond what we used to have! To start with the atmosphere, the small brick walkway and patio in the front is very charming. The knit tree-sweater is cute! Upon walking in, the atmosphere is bright and clean. The bicycles on the walls are so neat! The photographs being shown are great — it’s hard to find genuinely original photographs in Nantucket! The order was taken quickly and attentively, and each one was carefully crafted. The drinks were delicious — we had a chai latte, latte and cappuccino — all very good. We sat on the couches towards the front — comfy and in a space of their own. Overall, an enjoyable experience that we can’t wait to repeat. Don’t wait for any other coffee place to open or get better, this is where to go!

Coffee is tasty, blueberry muffin was well made, and the atmosphere is great. The bike theme is well done. The owner, Jason, is extremely accommodating. If you are in the downtown Nantucket area and need a break this is the spot to be. The only thing I could see that people might complain about is the music — I personally thought it was a tasteful mix of modern and classic songs but no accounting for taste.

Finally! I don’t know how many years we have been going to nantucket and wondering why the espresso based drinks are terrible(cough the bean, cough). Like other reviewers here, I am a snob and have tried the best all around the world. I’m not saying this is the best in the world, but it was absolutely the best on Nantucket. We tried a chai latte and a vanilla latte(oddly they do not have any sort of signature latte, but they said this was their most popular). We both were very happy, and will certainly return. Yum.

Why I’ll go back: The first truly artisanal coffee place that I’ve come across downtown… finally! You HAVE to order: Some flavor of latte — they make them with care and high quality ingredients, one at a time. Tony’s Tip: It’s a relaxing, fairly quiet place so you can comfortably read the paper, catch up on email, or chat with your coffee buddy. My search is over. Love ACK, but besides great sushi(sorry Lola), the only other thing lacking on this island for me has been a true café with carefully crafted coffee drinks. Well, good thing we vacationed late this Summer because Handlebar only opened a month ago. Love the coffee(I did a mocha this afternoon), love the sexy, chill music, and appreciate the openness of the space. I think this place is gonna blow up big time — so congrats to them for recognizing a void and filling it.
