Best coffee shop in Doylestown. Whenever possible I I like to support locally owned great busineeses. Nono's has terrific coffee and excellent fresh pastries which I've enjoyed many times in their pleasant authentic coffee house atmosphere. I've also purchased their whole bean speacilty coffee as gifts and received back rave reviews. Highly recommend.

Irresponsible owner, unmasked, unmasked patrons packed in like sardines, elbow to elbow in a pandemic. Husband and I were at a front window table, with at least 5 unmasked adult fools within 2 feet of us. No sign in windows even "requesting" masks be worn. Greedy, irresponsible, money-grubbing ownership! No pastry or latte worth contracting Covid-19. Shame, shame, shame, never returning -ever!

A 39% increase in diagnosed cases and an 80% increase in hospitalizations since my review, confirms it!

A delightful coffee shop in the heart of Doylestown- They have lattes, tea, espresso, baked treats, gelato and more. This is not Starbucks, this is a small business with big personality! And their drinks are so much better. A vanilla chai latte is my personal favorite. You will not regret your visit.

The mocha flavored latte I ordered was rich and smooth! We got 4 different types of coffee drinks and they were all so tasty! Baked goods looked yummy for next time. Wish there was more seating inside.
