33 Best Cafes near Wayland

“Mel's is a busy, bustling diner with lots of great menu options. My family has frequented Mel's for many years. Their food is even delicious as takeout to eat at home! Their eggs benedict and bagel sandwiches are to die for. We also love their silver dollar pancakes.“

“Cafe Fresh is amazing! I am obsessed with their bacon and egg sandwich. It’s so simple but so delicious. The way they cook the egg hits in such a good way. The staff is awesome as well! Yes, it’s chaotic but it’s an old school bagel shop. It gets busy, but in the end I’ve had nothing but positive experiences here.“

“The prepared items from Judith's Kitchen are some of the healthiest and most delicious foods you will find anywhere and at such reasonable prices!! We are from out of state, but will return each time we are back to see my surgeon. The salmon burger, the black bean burger, the coleslaw, the potato salad, the lentil soup, the roasted vegetables, and literally everything else are just fabulous!!! The owners are precious people and treat us with such warmth. I can't recommend this restaurant more highly. I just wish they would relocate to upstate New York!“

“10/10 across the board.Freshly baked bread - toasted to perfection.Incredibly seasoned home fries - cooked w/ perfect crisp. Bacon. Perfect crisp. Awesome friendly environment, owner is the chef and was running the place by himself. Excellent service.“

“A cozy spot where delicious food meets soulful tunes. Staff are always polite & friendly. Today, I had a ham and cheese croissant sandwich, a heavenly combo of flaky pastry, savory ham, and cheese. Washed it down with their cream brulee latte - pure perfection! A go-to hangout for a tasty treat & some good vibes. Oh & don't even get me started on the dessert selection.“

“Had this marked on the map for a while and finally made it in during the Holidays. Loved it. Great coffee and pastries. Very busy every visit I made, and I made many. A bit frustrating at times but nothing to leave a lesser rating for. It just means we all share the same sentiment ?. If it’s too busy, grab a cup of coffee and walk the town! I bought some beans for home and I’ll be back for sure when I’m in town. Thank you!“

“A friend brought over a pint each of walnut and chocolate chip gelato for dessert the other night, and I was blown away. Both were so creamy and flavorful, without tasting too sweet.I then found out all their gelatos are lactose free, so no upset stomach after eating a bunch. Looking forward to trying some of their other flavors.“

“Our food was great: my chicken sandwich, my son's tuna sandwich, my other son's pizza and my wife's soup. Everything was self-service. The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. We were met with a QR code rather than a menu which was a little daunting. Especially before my son hooked me up to WiFi. We work on base so very convenient. I will be back. Next time I will order before I arrive.“

“Debby's was fantastic! I just happened to be driving by and saw the little booth and had to see what it was all about. The coffee and sandwich did not disappoint. I will be dropping my kids off at camp for the week and no shame, probably stopping here every single day! Debby was so kind with the biggest smile on her face. Such a lovely experience!“

“I love coming here to have iced tea and their pecan sticky buns. The employees are always super friendly, and the ambience is great! Highly recommend coming here if you want a place to relax or just to go in to get a quick snack and go out!“

“Cute cafe with limited seating, limited parking, and accessible entry. Food was tasty and fresh. My freshly squeezed orange juice needed more ice. It only has one toilet. Cafeteria style service. You order at register, they bring your food, but you return your dishes. The clientele was diverse: white police officers, Asian college students, black women, and families.“

“Highly recommend the Blueberry and Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins! Get there early, muffins go fast!!Coffee is good with a bunch of flavors to choose from. Pastries look amazing and will be returning to try those.Only a few parking spots in back and limited seating available. Spot is mainly for takeout. Friendly staff as well. A great local spot for coffee and treats!“

“On my way to visit my sister-in-law who wasn't feeling well, I stopped in to get her a smoothie. The very nice man said he'd make her something that would make her feel better right away. He did and she did!! I loved what I got, too. We each also got delicious tea. If I lived near there, I'd make it a point to stop in frequently!“

“Nice place with extremely friendly staff. Foods a bit pricey and there's not a lot of options. I was kinda disappointed by the lack of breakfast items. But it's a good place to sit, have some food and enjoy a conversation.Parking: There's a good amount of spots in front of building and also directly across the street there's a parking lot.“

“This is an old school diner! Not a 50s or 60s styled place, but a booth and bar, coffee and eggs, family run place. Food is great, prepared perfectly by genuinely kind people. Been a patron for years. It's so nice to see a family working together, learning and growing. Treat yourselves and your heart will be as full as your tummy!“

“Food, Service, and Ambience are all wonderful. If you're a tourist, or a local, I advise you go to Main St. Market for a meal. Plus, their desserts are out of this world! Especially their vanilla cupcakes!! All patrons are handled equally with love and care. They are tentative to the needs of every guest. The waitstaff are friendly, happy, and overjoyed at work. Not to mention, the management is FANTASTIC!! #throughtheroof!! I love the history of the Main St. Market Cafe, it's family owned and has been for over 100 years! The interior design provide a real New England feel. I love the red brick, the colored signs which hang down from every wall, the townie-esq bar. Overall, I love Main Street Market Cafe since theres a a great sense of family. If you're new to Concord, I hope you have a chance to join them for a bite to eat.“

“Food is good and staff is friendly. The coffee is a little on the mellow side (I like strong coffee) lots of local residents and customers do come here and sit for a while. So if you like quiet this coffee shop may not be for you. But it is a lovely local joint with delicious food. Will be back ^_^“

“We had mochas, cafe chai lattes, croissants, sandwiches in this quaint historic building. Great ambiance, friendly baristas, and even enjoyed a lively chat with a local. He helped my HS Sr. Think critically about his college bound choices. No decision was made, but maybe one step along the way. Thank you to the stranger for helping!“

“FOR the TWISTED TREE in the DECORDOVA SCULPTURE MUSEUM: This is my favorite place in the world at the moment. I love the woman who works behind the counter. She is so cheerful and she winks and smiles at me. I also like the older man who makes and serves the food. It's a really nice atmosphere. I overheard the woman saying to someone some day, "I try to make every day a good day." I had been noticing that she really seems to do that. Can someone please tell the manager how awesome this team of two are?“

“We've been getting our whole beans from karma for grinding at home for almost 2 years. The products are great and the staff are very helpful guiding you on the different varieties. We've benefited from their recommendations multiple times. The shop is clean, everyone is nice, and we like the relaxed atmosphere.“

“Cozy European feel cafe with a fire place next to wellesley hills train station. Their caprese sandwich and refreshers are my favorite. Service can be hit or miss. Limited seatings. Parking is very very scarce, and going in and out is a nightmare.“

“My son and I recently moved to the area and we wanted to find a new breakfast spot so we figured we’d check this place out. The food was absolutely delicious. The weight wasn’t long and the staff was friendly.It’s definitely our new breakfast spot.“

“I would consider myself a regular and that pretty much says it all. The menu is great, and the coffee selection is fantastic. The staff are friendly, warm and inviting and the owner Justin and his Jake are SUPER GREAT. Stop in, grab a coffee and bit to eat, and say hello.“

“We've decided to make this stop every time we travel through the area; everything is delicious and it's worth the short trip off the highway. The croissants are flaky, buttery, and delicious (I recommend both the everything croissant and the ham and cheese), and the lemon ginger scones are the perfect amount of sweet for breakfast. My wife had the breakfast burrito, which came loaded with salsa, potatoes, egg, sausage and cheese, which was also fantastic. The staff were super polite and helpful as well. I absolutely recommend stopping in!“

“Great Service and Atmosphere. I love that you can get breakfast all day. Great place to meet someone or go with friends. I just went back there again and it was still just as great. I asked for a bacon and egg sandwich and they put it on a pancake which was delicious.“

“It's rare to bring my dairy free sister somewhere where she's able to eat almost anything on the menu. We scanned the bakery display and wondered what items were "safe" for her to eat and were pleasantly surprised when the helpful woman behind the counter excitedly explained that almost everything aside from 2-3 items contained no dairy! We went wild and ordered practically one of everything to bring home and sample, then got some breakfast to eat there too! I got breakfast tacos and my sister got a breakfast sandwich. Everything was great, though the homemade ketchup threw us a little. Not bad, just different.Everything is also gluten free too, and they have a great labeling system that helps narrow down which allergens are present in each item. I'm a self proclaimed bakery snob and even I was impressed by the variety and even the texture of the gluten free cake slices!“

“Hello all you hungry New Leaf guest. We are now open for business! Please come in and try one of our freshly made entrees, grill specials or a cup of our in-house made soups. Posted hour are correct and we hope to see all of you soon. -Paul Le Blanc Service Director“

“Highly recommend for a healthy and delicious meal! The Sudbury location in Whole Foods is a smaller version of the other stores (no breakfast/coffee) unfortunately, but what they do offer for lunch is really, really delicious. Austin was very knowledgeable about the menu and took pride in his service and the food/drinks he served. Everything we had was delicious, healthy, reasonably priced, and served with care. Thank you, Austin, hope to see you again real soon!“

“First time here from out of town. I'm for Portland OR, got an 8oz cappuccino. The flavor of the espresso was delicious, the best I've had in Sudbury by far. This was exactly the kind of specialty coffee I was looking for. The layout inside was a little scuffed, could be a lot better, also not sure what's with the noon closing time. seems so short for a rural coffee shop. Subury Coffeeworks has people in it well past lunch time, but i suppose thats because they have food. All of that said 5 stars for pulling me a great shot of espresso with a line out the door on a Monday at 11:30pm.“

“I Love how people try to tear down this place when they haven’t even stepped foot into the door. This place has the most amazing staff that has put blood, sweat and tears into making it into what it is today. Keep up the good work team and ignore the haters❤️“

“My family discovered the TapTap by chance, when my teen’s phone quit working during an outing and he needed to call home for help. The proprieters very kindly allowed him to use their phone, and while he waited for pick-up, he ordered some food. We ended up enjoying a delicious and generous rice bowl and beef and chicken pasties. So flavorful!! We are so glad to have found this fantastic gem, and plan to return for more!“

“We enjoyed our Valentine's Lunch. My salad was excellent, but the salmon was a little overcooked. My husband's Crab Mac & Cheese was great. It was even better the next day! It is nice to have booth seating but since I am only 5'2" I felt like my chin was almost level with my food. I will have to remember to sit in a chair next time. Some sort of divider between the booths would be nice. We had a group of 3 women next to us that were seated after us that were excited to be with each other and were louder than we liked.“
