Ordered your simple regular iced coffee and it was delicious. I appreciated how strong the coffee was yet flavorful. Looking forward to going back and trying other drinks!

I visited the branch in Basseterre for a breakfast bite to eat and enjoyed the experience immensely. Although small in size the wait in line, ordering to collection process is extremely quick. The food and service are good, which makes Rituals an enjoyable experience, and despite a seemingly busy and full look, the service reduces this in no time by keeping the serving process moving. A must visit for those town visits and wanting to grab a bite to eat or coffee whilst on the move.

Coffee is fresh and other beverages good as well. We enjoyed the bakery items and tuna panini. It's nice to sit down and get a break from the heat, BUT the three times we came in it was so cold we needed to go outside to warm up after 15 minutes...and when we did our eyeglasses fogged up! lol Can't imagine what they are paying for electricity. Music could be a lot better also. How about some jazz and perhaps some Caribbean music rather than all the R&B stuff? Service is okay though could be friendlier and more personable. Free WiFi is available but password is not posted; you'll need to have staff enter it in for you.
