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.
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.
From crusty sourdough to flaky croissants, our display case tells the story of what's good today.
Sourdough, ciabatta, baguettes, and seasonal loaves — all baked from scratch each morning using traditional methods.
Buttery croissants, fluffy cinnamon rolls, danish, and a rotating selection of seasonal treats that disappear fast.
Espresso, lattes, pour-over, and cold brew made with carefully selected beans. Your daily cup, done right.
Hand-picked pantry staples, local honey, artisan preserves, and grocery essentials you'll actually want to cook with.
Sandwiches, soups, salads, and savory pastries made fresh for a satisfying midday break. Simple, honest food.
Birthday cakes, holiday treats, and custom orders for your special moments. Just give us a call to discuss.
"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."
"Ordered a custom cake for my daughter's birthday and it was absolutely perfect. Beautiful, delicious, and made with such attention to detail. Will definitely order again!"
Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee on your way to work or settling in for a leisurely brunch, we'd love to see you.
