I ordered an oat latte, what they gave me was nothing of the sort. Makes me think all the reviews of this cafe are fake or people in Boston have no idea what a latte is. Only gave it 2 stars because at least the service was good.

Such a cute little spot! Great espresso with the sweetest outdoor seating— very French.

As nice as the employees are here, the coffee is REALLY bland. 3 times now, ive gotten a small iced Cinnamon Sticky Bun coffee with Oatmilk and 3 sugars. Each time, the coffee has had basically no flavor.Almost like it it was brewed, then watered down.

Stopped by on a late Monday morning looking for a late breakfast. Had a croissant breakfast sandwich with egg and cheese. Also had a waffle plate. There are company by fresh fruit, which is very tasty. Nice selection of coffee and drink options. I went for a cappuccino which hit the spot.

Nice cozy place on Newbury. Great coffee, lot of options for a good teatime snack, decent prices. Don't hesitate to stop by after an afternoon of shopping. The outside tables are definitely a plus for the warmer days.

Little coffee shop and bakery. Good food at a good price. Boston prices. Lots of Boston police coming in for their morning coffee. Service is quick even with a line.

The s'mores fried dough is amazingggg! A heavenly cross between s'mores and funnel cake. Also it was fun to eat like a pizza. I genuinely crave this on the regular, why have I not been back. Cute shop but barely any seating.

A gem!!! Stopped by this sweet little cafe after a haircut on Newbury and was so pleasantly surprised. The staff was kind and inviting, music was perfect, seating was cozy and warm, decor was so homey, and food was amazing! I got a hazelnut coffee and the turkey pesto grilled cheese. Great portion size, came with chips, perfectly cooked. Can't wait to come back with a book for a cozy solo date!! Must try.

My friend and I recently visited this coffee shop when we were in town for a conference 2months ago. We decided to take an afternoon stroll and found this coffee shop with an amazing outdoor seatings patio. It was a perfect spot to enjoy the vibrant and fall vibe with a cup of coffee and sandwich. There are so many pedestrians and people who were playing musical instruments on the street that created this lively vibe. We decided to order Vermont Maple Walnut Coffee and Hot Mocha. I really enjoyed how they incorporated the Maple flavor without making it overly sweet or overpowering the caffeine taste. The Hot Mocha tasted was average. We also ordered a breakfast sandwich and I loved how we were able to choose a croissant for our sandwich instead of the typical white/wheat bread. The service was pretty quick although there was a long line so i was totally impressed.
