MONADNOCK REGION, N.H. (MyKeeneNow) Fall has arrived in the Monadnock Region, and with it comes the annual return of pumpkin spice, apple cider, cider donuts and other flavors that make the season taste like fall.

From coffee shops serving pumpkin drinks to orchards turning their own apples into cider donuts — and ice cream shops getting in on the pumpkin craze — there are plenty of seasonal treats to seek out.

Here’s where we’ve confirmed fall flavors and treats for 2026.

Seasonal offerings can change and some items are available only while supplies last. Check with individual businesses for current availability before making a special trip.

Pumpkin Spice In Keene

Starbucks

281 West St., Keene

Starbucks’ 2026 fall menu brings back several pumpkin favorites while adding some new seasonal drinks.

The lineup includes the Pumpkin Spice Latte, Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai and Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino.

New this year are the Iced Pumpkin Cream Shaken Espresso, Iced Pumpkin Cream Matcha and Pumpkin Spice Chai.

There are also several other autumn-inspired drinks, including the Pecan Crunch Latte, Iced Pecan Crunch Latte and Pecan Cortado, as well as the new Iced Chaider.

For something to eat, the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin is back on the fall menu.

Aroma Joe’s

348 West St., Keene

Aroma Joe’s is getting into the season with its Poppin’ Pumpkin Latte.

The fall drink combines pumpkin spice and salted caramel and comes topped with a choice of Cloud Top or whipped cream and popping sugar.

The seasonal drink is available through Nov. 1, 2026, while supplies last.

Pumpkin Ice Cream

Station 16 Ice Cream — Jaffrey

33 Peterborough St., Jaffrey

Pumpkin fans don’t have to limit themselves to coffee.

Station 16 Ice Cream in Jaffrey has offered Pumpkin and Pumpkin Oreo among its seasonal ice-cream flavors, putting a frozen spin on the traditional flavors of fall.

The shop also serves sundaes, frappes and other frozen treats.

Fall Coffee On The Road

Here-N-There Coffee Co.

If your fall plans include a foliage drive, keep an eye out for Here-N-There Coffee Co.’s mobile café.

Its fall menu includes a Pumpkin Pie Cold Brew made with pumpkin-pie syrup, white-chocolate cold foam and cinnamon.

The seasonal lineup also includes a Caramel Apple Cold Brew with caramel-apple syrup, caramel cold foam and caramel drizzle, a Butter Toffee Cold Brew and a Spooky Campfire Cold Brew featuring toasted marshmallow, chocolate and graham-cracker flavors.

The mobile café also offers hot and iced cider.

Because Here-N-There is a mobile operation, check its current schedule to see where it will be serving.

Cider Donuts And Pumpkin Treats

Washburn’s Windy Hill Orchard — Greenville

66 Mason Road, Greenville

For the biggest concentration of fall flavors in one place, Washburn’s Windy Hill Orchard is hard to beat.

The orchard’s apple cider donuts are made fresh during the fall season, and visitors can also get hot mulled cider and frozen apple cider.

For a particularly indulgent combination, try the Cider Donut Sundae, which pairs a warm cider donut with soft-serve ice cream.

The bakery also has several pumpkin-specific treats, including pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, pumpkin cream cheese muffins and pumpkin cream cheese whoopie pies.

Other seasonal offerings include warm apple crisp and additional fall bakery items.

With apples, pumpkins, a corn maze and other autumn activities on the property, Washburn’s can easily become a full afternoon stop rather than just a quick food run.

Alyson’s Orchard — Walpole

57 Alyson’s Lane, Walpole

Alyson’s Orchard is another destination for one of fall’s most beloved treats: the apple cider donut.

The orchard makes its donuts from scratch using its own pressed apple cider.

Grab a bag to take along on a foliage drive or combine the donuts with apple picking and a stop at the farm store.

Keene Pumpkin Festival

Downtown Keene — Oct. 17

Central Square and Downtown Keene

Of course, no fall food roundup in the Monadnock Region would be complete without the Keene Pumpkin Festival.

The 2026 festival is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 17, beginning at 2 p.m., in downtown Keene. The annual celebration features carved pumpkins, live entertainment, family activities, games, trick-or-treating and food vendors.

The festival’s official schedule specifically includes nonprofit food tents, along with downtown businesses participating in trick-or-treating.

The exact 2026 food-vendor lineup and menus had not yet been posted when this guide was updated, so check the festival’s official website and social media closer to Oct. 17 for details on what pumpkin-themed and other fall goodies will be available.

The festival itself is, of course, an ideal place to embrace the season — with pumpkins and jack-o’-lanterns filling downtown and plenty of food and treats available as visitors explore the event. The City of Keene lists the 2026 Pumpkin Festival as a licensed downtown event on Oct. 17.

Make A Fall Flavor Tour

Want to turn the search for seasonal treats into a day trip?

Start in Keene with a pumpkin spice drink, then head south toward Jaffrey for pumpkin ice cream at Station 16.

For a full farm-and-food experience, head to Greenville and make Washburn’s Windy Hill Orchard the destination. There, you can combine cider donuts, pumpkin baked goods, hot cider and a cider donut sundae with apple and pumpkin season activities.

Or head west toward Walpole for apple cider donuts at Alyson’s Orchard and a scenic drive through the Connecticut River Valley.

And if you’re planning your fall calendar, save Oct. 17 for the Keene Pumpkin Festival — where the pumpkins are the stars and food vendors will add to the celebration.
