Waterbury's Favorite Bakery

What if your morning started with something actually fresh?

At Roll Away Cafe, we bake from scratch every single morning — no shortcuts, no day-old bread, no compromise. Just warm pastries, great coffee, and the kind of welcome that makes you want to stay a while.

Not just another cafe — we're your neighborhood kitchen

Roll Away Cafe started with a simple idea: what if a bakery could feel like visiting a friend's house? No rush, no pretense — just good food made with care and served with a smile.

Every loaf, pastry, and coffee blend is chosen or crafted with the same attention we'd give our own family's table. We source local ingredients when we can, bake in small batches, and believe that the best meals are the ones shared slowly.

Loved by our neighbors

"The sourdough here is unlike anything I've found elsewhere in Waterbury. Crusty on the outside, soft and tangy inside. I drive past three other bakeries just to stop here."

"This place feels like a hidden gem. The coffee is excellent, the pastries are incredible, and the people are genuinely warm. It's become my Saturday morning ritual."
