Svitlana UdovenkoJuly 7, 2018Lattes are amazing! Pastries change a lot, everything I tried from them was good tho. Sandwiches tasty - fresh breads and all ingredients feel good quality and fresh. Love the place!
Ingrid WongApril 29, 2015Sweet potato lovers must order the Village sandwich! Love their chai latte - made with housemade chai tea concentrate. They also have excellent breakfast options (housemade granola) and pastries.
Get here before 9:30am on a weekend to stand a reliable chance of grabbing a table without a wait. Then sip your lovely espresso drink in peace while noshing on an excellent breakfast sandwich
Alli R.June 27, 2016Tried this for the first time today..the coconut pecan banana bread is amazing! I want to try all the other pastries. I'll be back! The iced chai was great too :)
Mairéad Ní DhubhthaighJuly 7, 2016I had the fig toast which I slightly regret as there were so many other amazing looking things on the menu. I loved the place though, really nice atmosphere and the staff are lovely and genuine.
Pam ☕️ OJune 17, 2015Great coffee from Pilot and Gimme! Coffee Roasters but the size of the space and crowded seating makes it unpleasant to hang out during rush hour.
plenty of gluten free options and they take extra care for no cross contamination when making sandwiches for celiacs like me. coffee and food is amazing - worth every penny!
Quinton MaJune 19, 2017Pies and the ricotta toasts are so good!!! I don't even like sweets but the sweet ricotta is to die for
get a cortado (aka gibraltar) not only for the equally rich flavors of milk and bean, but also for the delicate, adorable glass it comes in.- Brian McMahonJune 11, 2022Breakfast sandwich might be the best in Somerville. They use tandem coffee which is also a sleeper for one of the best in the new England area.
Lauren WebelJuly 14, 2013Crazy good food served here! , the egg, goat cheese and arugula on brioche is out of this world!! The Moroccan mint iced tea is perfect as served. I will be coming back here
Lavender biscuit is a must! Have to definitely give it a try! The cappuccinos are amazing and so are the people who work there. I'm there every week, it's that good! 👍
Laura WongJanuary 27, 2015Great place to stop and grab coffee/breaky on the go. Pretty small for sit down. But great menu selection for coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Get here early on the weekends!
Crowded on weekend mornings, but the line moves quickly. Amazing matcha lattes and biscuits.- Steph HillAugust 9, 2014Lavender biscuits were better than I imagined they could be. A must try! Also had an apple cider muffin which was unbelievable. Super friendly staff!
- David HeiserNovember 13, 2017Good coffee and breakfast bites. I liked the spinach pie & my girlfriend loved her feta toast with olive tapenade
Bhavin GandhiApril 7, 2019Best freaking lunch/brunch spot in all of Somerville. Incredible sandwiches and yogurt.
Markéta KokoškováMay 5, 2017Amazing place, the best lavender biscuit ever. Must visit, must taste. Happy we were here👍🏼🇺🇸.
Katerina KouriatiJuly 29, 2016I love the calm vibe of this place most of all. The stuff is very polite and friendly too. A small piece of oasis.
The Fig n'spice granola with yogurt was heavenly. Delicious lattes and a great crew. Definitely will be returning.
Tim LuoJuly 10, 2015Cappuccino is nutty, and slightly chocolatey. Very good. The turkey apple brie sandwich was good. Amazingly friendly baristas!
Patty GrennenMarch 11, 2014Their Greek yogurt & honey is the food of the gods. I don't know what's in it, but it has my taste buds wanting more long after I've licked the bowl clean.
Jake FochettaDecember 12, 2015Get the Greek yogurt if you aren't looking for anything heavy. They make it with honey and granola and it's da bomb.
- Almond milk lattes, spinach pie, market sandwich and pastries are heavenly. Best place for lunch and snacks. They also sell Kombucha.
Stephanie VNHDecember 9, 2014Beautiful Automn salad. Really good coffee. Be quick, look around and find the only free spot left at the store.
BrianMay 5, 2018Their Market Sandwich is ridiculously good— prosciutto, goat cheese, fig jam, arugula, tomatoes, and herbs.
Carlos RangelMay 2, 2017The perfect place to have breakfast, but you need to arrive early in the morning due to its popularity.
cody SFebruary 20, 2012Excellent and perfect coffee and lattes, The BEST in Boston. Local ingredients and supper natural and friendly service. Yes it it very expensive .
Limited seating at the best of times but the coffee is really, really good. Friendly staff and super tasty food, as well.
Get their egg & feta sandwich. It comes on an amazingly tasty and yet oh so light brioche and it's both tasty and nutritious. Love it.
Rebecca WingfieldSeptember 1, 2012Lavendar biscuit, fig and maple pecan spice granola, and ginger bomb cookies. All excellent and must-try. Tell Caroline hello!
Great coffee, toasts (ricotta is my favorite), and pastries. Busy on weekends.
Roy NMarch 3, 2020All the good and pastries are great! Good pies. Coffee was meh. Too acidic and fruity for me. I like darker flavors.
My new fav cafe in the Boston area. Get their lavender biscuit and be weary of addiction
Peter SalemJune 22, 2018Dragonfruit chia pudding is light, but satisfying, and fruity, but savory. Delightful
Sabina SayeedMarch 30, 2013Delicious cider doughnuts and coffee! and the spinach pie is great too if you're looking for something savory.
Get the village sandwich, it is delicious! Sweet potato, arugula, goat cheese, roasted red peppers with honey & olive oil.- Must try the lavender biscuit, it's delicious! The cappuccinos are fantastic. Love this place, can't wait to go back!
- Can we talk about the avocado muffin for a second? Because I'm really into the avocado muffin, and you should be into it too.
Miraj ShahFebruary 27, 2016Great coffee and really tasty muffins! Reminds me of coffee shops in Seattle, the really good ones.
The amazing Greek yogurt is AMAZING! Just honey, no granola or fruit needed. Always come back for more.
Pankaj RupaniJanuary 12, 2019Come in early if you want the best stuff: sausage breakfast pie and pepper biscuit
The cappuccinos are fantastic. Excellent baristas. Delicious baked goods.
