I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. I live pretty close but I rarely go to Amherst because it gets very busy when the colleges are in session. But this past weekend we had some houseguests and needed to find a restaurant that had vegan options and gluten free options. Fresh Side had something for everyone and our waitress was super friendly and brought over a treat that was both gluten free and vegan for us all to try. I had some delicious vegetable fried rice and my partner enjoyed his Pho with chicken instead of beef. I also got delicious green tea made with roasted rice. Our guests were happy with their food as well. I will definitely keep Fresh Side in mind when we are wanting some more pan Asian foods.

A trendy spot in a college town, known for its vibrant interior and unique matcha mixing technique, but seating can be a challenge.

I’ve been coming to Share Coffee in Amherst since they open! Love the Baristas , the Espresso, the gluten free baked goods and the Matcha…. Did I say Matcha… well, here is where things got weird. I make matcha at home, and I use the traditional Chasen (the matcha wisk) to mix and foam this delicious japanese green tea. Today I see my lovely Barista putting the matcha powder into an OXO Good Grips Salad Dressing Shaker (!!!) she proceeded to vigorously shake the green liquid… the result: a clumpy mess where half of the mixture stayed stuck to the walls of the SALAD dressing container. Who’s idea was to change the way they mix my matchas? Please bring the whisks back and stop this non-sense!

I did enjoy this place. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed. The police was clean and well-lit. The menu was surprisingly diverse and large. Service was awesome with friendly Happy People serving you. My big complaint was it seems to be quite expensive. Especially for a college town. The coffee was pretty good! And they have a gluten-free selection that wasn't awesome but wasn't bad either.

First visit. prompt friendly greeting, patient service (it took us a while to decide; many good choices), excellent quality food and coffee. Highly recommend the Fall Fest Latte and the grilled veggie pesto sandwich on gluten-free bread. We’ll definitely return. Thank you!
