Aroma Joes Opens New Location In Goffstown, NH

Guess what, Hillsborough County? Aroma Joe's has officially opened a new location in Goffstown, New Hampshire, and coffee fanatics west of Manchester are celebrating.

Residents in Goffstown and surrounding towns no longer have to make the drive into Manchester to grab their favorite AJ’s drinks, breakfast sandwiches, or energy boosts.

This new location opened on May 5, 2026.

Aroma Joe’s has built a loyal following throughout New England because of its upbeat atmosphere, quick and friendly service... OH, and have I mentioned their extensive menu of coffee and espresso drinks?

Whether you’re into classic iced coffee, flavored lattes, cold brews, or their signature AJ’s Rush energy drinks, there’s no shortage of options on the menu. One thing AJ fans especially love is the seemingly endless list of flavor combinations and customization choices.

For anyone unfamiliar with the brand, Aroma Joe’s has deep New England roots. The first shop opened in East Rochester, New Hampshire, in 2000 by four cousins from Maine (Marty and Tim McKenna, along with Mike and Brian Sillon). Their goal was simple: create a coffee shop focused on positive energy, friendly customer service, and high-quality drinks.

At the time, the founders saw an opportunity to stand out from larger coffee chains, and since their first location opened, Aroma Joe’s has grown into a beloved community staple across Maine and New Hampshire.

There are a total of 135 Aroma Joe's locations in the United States.

The new Goffstown location continues that expansion and gives local residents another convenient stop for their daily caffeine fix.

My suggestion? Try their "Paris Toast" iced latte or coffee (dairy of your choice). This coffee is packed with flavor: maple, brown sugar, cinnamon, and shortbread. If you like a flavored treat, this coffee will leave your tastebuds surprised and super happy!

And it may just give you an extra pep in your step to tackle the work day.

Whether you’re a longtime Aroma Joe’s fan or trying it for the first time, Goffstown now officially has another go-to coffee destination.

Iconic Diners in New Hampshire

There’s just something about a diner… the coffee that never stops coming, the same booth people have probably been sitting in for 30 years, and a breakfast that somehow hits every single time.

As I’ve been getting to know New Hampshire, one thing became very clear — this state LOVES its diners. And not just any diners… we’re talking iconic, been-here-forever, locals-swear-by-it kind of places.

So I went down the rabbit hole (and got very hungry in the process) and pulled together some of the most iconic diners across the Granite State.

Did we get your favorite? Or are you already mad we missed one? 😅
