From single-origin pour-overs to small-batch cocktails shaken to order, Short Stop is where intention meets ingredients — right here on East Main Street.
Short Stop was born from a simple conviction: the best conversations happen when the coffee is right, the atmosphere is easy, and nobody's checking the clock. We opened our doors on East Main Street to give New London a space that's equal parts craft coffee lab and neighborhood living room.
Every pour-over is pulled with intention. Every cocktail is built from scratch. And every guest is treated like they just walked into a place they belong — because that's exactly what this is.
Natural light, warm wood, and the kind of energy that makes you want to stay a while.
Don't take our word for it — hear from the folks who make Short Stop their regular.
"I've been coming here every morning for six months. The baristas know my order, the coffee is consistently excellent, and it's become the best part of my routine."
"The shift from café to bar is seamless. I'll grab a pour-over at noon and be back by 7 for an Old Fashioned. It's my favorite spot in town, period."
"As someone who works remotely, this is my office away from home. Fast Wi-Fi, great coffee, and the staff never makes you feel like you're taking up space with your laptop."
We're right on East Main Street in the heart of New London. Pull up, park, and stay as long as you like.
