    Cocktail seekers might shy away from Spoke due to its name. That would be a mistake. In addition to a stellar wine list, Spoke actually offers some of the best craft cocktails in Davis Square.

    Great ambiance, with some outdoor seating. Good selection of beer, and an awesome cocktails list. Everything I ate was delicious, I would highly recommend the pewee potatoes, burrata, and Beef Tartare

    Amazing tapas. Visit this place with 2-3 people and share little plates. Try the chickpea frites, salt + vinegar rye chips, flatbread & spreads, smoked mussels and the butterscotch budino.

    Absolutely some of the best food & drink in greater Boston. Get the “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes” cocktail to really enjoy something special.

    Fantastic. Small plates, done masterfully and just big enough-ly. Great wine, great cocktails, brilliant liqueur/amari/bitters selection.

    Loved the orange and red wines. Scallops, steak, seasonal farm-fresh salad, and delightful cheese plate were all perfect.

    Chickpea Fries are delicious. Solid beer and cocktail selection, but come here for the wine. Staff will let you taste a bunch before you commit to one.

    expensive place to go hungry to (portions are small) BUT delicious. Lots of options for sharing small plates. The charcuterie was excellent & the selection of spreads are lovely. Oh & all the wine :-)

    The flatbreads and whipped spreads are great for sharing. If you run out of bread, just ask for more - they'll give it to you!

    Not great for groups of 4 or more. Better as a date night or catching up with a close friend.

    While in a good location, interesting selection of diverse dishes, and hip atmosphere, the prices are simply way too high especially the wine is extremely expensive.

    Everything tasted good but the portions for both food and wine were tiny. There are better places in Davis- I don't recommend this place.
