Every coffee shop has its fans. Vote now to tell us the best place in and around Gardner

Now that we're in fall mode, it's pumpkin spice everything, from deodorant to dog treats to cookies and toilet paper.

Of course, the pumpkin spice treat that started the whole craze is Starbucks' pumpkin spice latte, which debuted in 2003, more than 20 years ago, and continues to be the company's most popular seasonal beverage.

Whether you are on Team PSL or anti-pumpkin spice, if you're a coffee drinker, you have that place that makes your coffee beverage just the way you like it, whether that's a super strong espresso (fort piquante as my French teacher used to say), a macchiato with a touch of foam and a caramel drizzle, or a cold brew.

So where is it? We combed through The Gardner News' communities and found lots of great options for a cup of joe.

Take our poll and tell us which of these shops/chains is your favorite. The poll closes at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 15.

Cafe Edesia, 486 Chestnut St. #2, Gardner

Cafe Edesia offers nearly two dozen different flavors of coffee, including pumpkin as well as nine different java smoothie options. Food options include breakfast, pastries, wraps, paninis, soups, salads, and sandwiches.

Kros on the Common, 10 Baldwinville Road, Templeton

Kros on the Common features a robust menu of food items, which includes Sunday brunch. And while you're at brunch, if the standard hot or iced regular, mocha or caramel coffees aren't what you're looking for, try the 'Not your basic pumpkin spiced iced coffee, which adds Berkshire bourbon whiskey and homemade pumpkin spice syrup to their iced coffee.

Sippin’ Serendipity, 206 Central St., Winchendon

Roasting their own Wicked Good Beans, Sippin’ Serendipity has only been open since June but has already developed a loyal following. Coffee flavors include French vanilla, English toffee, and brown sugar cinnamon, which all pair nicely with the baked goods including pumpkin bars with cream cheese icing, snickerdoodle cake, and oatmeal cream pies. The shop also features a full breakfast menu and sandwiches for lunch.

Victoria Coffee, 134 Main St., Westminster

Victoria Coffee started as a pair of friends roasting gourmet coffee beans and selling them at pop-up locations and farmers markets. Named for partner Colby Chrusciel's grandmother, Victoria Coffee opened a brick-and-mortar shop in September 2023. All coffees are imported from environmentally sustainable micro-farms around the world.

Dunkin'

As the commercial says, "America runs on Dunkin.'" The fall menu has dropped and features a pumpkin latte, a Dunkalatte ("it sips like a latte and tastes like a melty milkshake") and an Almond Spice coffee. Is New England's claim to fame your favorite spot for coffee?

Dunkin' has four locations in Gardner, one in each Ashburnham and Templeton, as well as two in each Westminster and Winchendon.
