Emma's Cafe

Emma's Cafe is a casual cafe serving made-from-scratch soups and stews, scratch-made scones and pastries, and smoothies blended to order. Its best-known item is the Signature Turkey Chili, a guest favorite since 2013. Soups and stews use locally grown seasonal vegetables and herbs, and breakfast is served all day.

The cafe is at 37 Main Street in Sterling, in the downtown area near the Town Common. Orders can be placed online or by phone for pick-up, and a pick-up window lets customers collect their order at the curb. There is outdoor seating overlooking the Town Common, and the cafe also offers catering.
