Yellow King Brews - Wallingford, Connecticut

Stuart Turman

Met some friends here for the first time this past Sunday and we had a great experience. The place was jamming! We almost couldn’t find a seat. During the warmer months they have seating outside too but It’s a bit early in the season, so we were told. The atmosphere was lively and busy.

The staff were attentive and the drinks were delicious. We ordered the flight of course and then had a few more. My personal favorite was the Cookie Monster! Liquid crack for lack of a better term is the best way to describe it. If you don’t like sweet than you definitely want to stick to a traditional espresso martini. The presentation was great and our entire group was happy. We will be returning. Thank you Yellow Kings Brews!

Cool place a bit off the beaten path. They offer a large variety of coffee, beer and espresso martinis. I got the seasonal pumpkin martini and a hazy IPA. They don’t allow dogs which is a bummer, but I would happy stop by here again for a drink (or the espresso martini flight).

Update 9/4/24: the new fall coffee menu is out and it’s quite intriguing. I tried the Autumn Glory Latte and was not disappointed! Can’t wait to work my way through some of the other fall drinks. Food selection for breakfast has been bulked up and definitely looks appetizing.

Food is average in my opinion, but the coffee drinks are delicious and creative. I’m not an alcohol drinker, but I’ve been here in the being with others who partook and said the drinks/beers are good. I’d re commend both the cold brews and the espresso based drinks if you’re adventurous and want to try something you’re not likely to get elsewhere. Had the King Wylde and Nutty iced cold brew today and banana cold foam was excellent!

Delicious coffee flights with mini crazy doughnuts! Huge tables for board games, and multiple power outlets for studying or working. Adequate free parking too

My fiance and I came on a Saturday afternoon at the beginning of September. It was a bit busy, but not too overwhelming. We each got the seasonal espresso martini flight that we had seen advertised, as we are espresso martini enthusiasts. The fall flavors and our ratings consisted of 1. The Classic (9.5/10), Pumpkin' Pickin' (8.5/10), Salty Bytch (5/10) and A Little Bitter, A Little Sweet (6/10). We also got the chips and guac (8/10) and the buffalo bites (8/10). The espresso martini flight had four small martinis and cost $36 each, which we thought was overpriced for only liking two out of four of the martinis. The food was overall good for bar food and it was reasonably priced. We also got two full sized espresso martinis, Nuzilla (8.5/10) and the Wylde 'N Nutty (7.5/10). We spent a total of $120. While we tasted and felt the caffeine, the alcohol aspect was not strong. With everything we drank, we did not really feel a buzz. If you are wanting a coffee-forward drink (which they advertise), they are great. If you are wanting more of a happy hour vibe, I wouldn't recommend. The atmosphere was great, very chill, etc. They had multiple TVs with sports on, and was kid and dog friendly. It is a more self service location in that you choose your own seat and go up to order and wait for your food and drinks. We will for sure be back to try their winter espresso martini drinks, as well as to try coffee and their array of breakfast foods.

Met some friends here on a Monday afternoon. Small outside seating and ample indoor seating. Awesome concept this place has adult beverages of all kinds spiked coffees, teas and some regular cocktails. This place also has food but we didn’t get food so can’t review that but they have breakfast sandwichs, pizza, nachos. No waiter/waitress service per se, you have to go and order and pickup yourself. I chose the Oreo mocha cold brew it was phenomenal! Pictures to follow. This place is awesome! Will definitely go back.

We found this spot on Google while searching for fall coffees. Saw they had coffee flights and decided to check it out. What a great decision! The place is conveniently located on the side of a main road, easy to see while driving. Walked into a welcoming and aesthetically pleasing seating area, they also have outdoor seating where we were able to sit with our small dog while we enjoyed our order. We got the Sweater Weather coffee flight, all of which were delicious in their own way. They were all iced coffees which was great because it was still pretty warm outside. I got a Nuzilla hot chocolate for myself, as I’m not the biggest fan of coffee in general. I’m not exaggerating when I say this was the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had. Every sip felt like a warm hug. For food, we got a blueberry muffin and a toasted cheddar bagel with cream cheese. I think the bagel might have been the best I’ve ever had on the East coast as well. I didn’t have much of the muffin but the little piece I had was delicious and crumbly. Everything tasted really fresh. The two girls working behind the counter were very friendly and made our order expeditiously. We came to the conclusion that this will be our date afternoon stop from now on, we’ll be coming back frequently! Oh, and everything was very reasonably priced, especially based on the quality of food and drinks you get for what you pay. Highly recommended!!!
