The center of Foxboro is def missing a good coffee option. Crosbys in wrentham is pretty much the only one. Otherwise it’s just low quality, chain choices.

Edit- there’s been some newer places opened recently ( a cute bakery, shoveltown a new restaurant) and they are bumping. Town is a former blue collar area turning upscale, but most businesses are long standing and cater to the older residents. I love those places too but the town is just wanting for variety that’s not in patriots place.the specific area I’m talking about is the Common, in Uptown.

As a Foxboro resident, please come here! My partner and I desperately want a local coffee shop to get a good drink and a baked good and hang out for a little while. She also works remote and is always looking for somewhere to work out of the house for a change in scenery and Dunkin or honeydew don't have that vibe.

Totally agree. I was hoping that new bakery would have more of a hang out vibe but it really is just a ‘buy your stuff and go’ place like White’s at the Crossing.

There’s an active business owners group that meets pretty regularly- usually at the Orpheum. I know a few members, good people. You could definitely touch base with those folks. Someone just bought out the old Todman building next to o’reilly so idk what the plans are there.

Secondig. This my husband and I often talk about how badly this area needs a good coffee shop. Ideally a place that sells simple breakfast sandwiches and treats.
