25 Best Cafes near West Boylston

“We were looking for a place to sit for breakfast that wasn't a diner. I came across this online, and after reading the reviews, we decided to check it out. So glad we did! All the reviews were right! Very good food! Couple things to know: it's cash only, and however, it appears on the menu is how it comes. For example I asked if their 3 egg omlettes could be made with 2 since I know I never am able to finish a 3 egg omlette and the waitress said "not really, they come how they come". I opted for a breakfast sandwich instead, which was delicious, and my husband's eggs and pancake were great, too!Parking: There are about 10 or 12 parking spots. Perfect for a weekday but may be an issue on a busy weekend“

“Suzette offers excellent, fresh, and authentic French crepes and macarons at very affordable prices. The staff is friendly and offers amazing service. I have been many times, and have recently ordered macarons for an event. Over the many instances my friends, family and I have eaten there, I have had nothing short of a flawless experience. I would definitely recommend.“

“I think I finally found a local business I can support instead of going to Starbucks! The iced lattes here are delicious and the baked goods are FRESH. My friend said her nitro brew was on point. We’re both lactose intolerant and were glad they had all the alternative milk options. The cappuccino are true cappuccino (not lattes being mislabeled as cappuccinos).My neighbor and I enjoy meeting here to practice each other’s first language (she’s learning English; I’m learning Portuguese). There’s Wifi for when we need Google Translate and it’s quiet enough to hear each other (but loud enough that we aren’t uncomfortable chatting the entire time). Casual and friendly environment.For parents/guardians of littles, there’s 1 couch with children’s toys/coloring in a nearby cubby.For social media influencers, there’s a decorative wall for you to take your selfies in front of. And the drinks have a cute logo/sticker.Random: I also love the stickers they have for sale at the counter.I hope this place sticks around!“

“Last night before the Judds concert, we were looking for a place to have dinner. Most places right around the venue were at least an hour wait. We ended up a couple blocks from away at a place called deadhorse hill . It was a small place, not a huge menu but a decent selection of options. The greeter was prompt and polite. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our waitress was attentive and funny with a quick wit. While we waited for our meal, I observed the bartender expertly measuring, stirring and shaking drinks while engaged in friendly chatting with other staff and people at the bar. Our food was great. We each got burgers and fries and they were delicious. When the bill came, there was a 20% tip already factored in. I've seen this done for large parties before but it was just three of us. Apparently it was stated on the menu, I hadn't seen it. I'm paraphrasing here because I don't recall the exact wording but basically they said the reason they do it is so that all staff is paid equally and they earn enough to make a livable wage. I thought that was pretty cool and then it dawned on me, our waitress was truly one of the best I've ever had. In truth, she didnt have to be. Technically, she was already getting her 20% guaranteed. She didnt have to put in any extra effort. The same goes for the rest of the staff. To me, this made it all the more impressive. The backs of the shirts they all wore said, "Don't be a Pickle kicker". Couldn't figure out what that meant so we asked our waitress. She told us that some time ago back they first opened, a young man worked there and when it got busy and he was building the sandwiches and a pickle fell to the floor, he would just kick it under the fridge. When other staff would clean they would find piles of pickles under there. So its a message to everyone on staff to think of each other, take pride in their work and don't be lazy. I thought that was pretty amazing. All in all, if you ever find yourself in Worcester, MA for a concert or event at the DCU Center, go early and have dinner at Deadhorse Hill. Well worth it and a wonderful experience.“

“This place is amazing. Central Mass does not have a lot of vegan comfort food spots so I was happy when this place opened. I’ve been vegan for 16 years and the “chickun” sandwich and (juicy af) breakfast sandwich may be the best I’ve had anywhere.“

“Made my first trip to Root and Press yesterday and I will be back. What a great place! Ordered the Purple Cow and it was very refreshing. The Chipotle Chicken Avocado Sandwich and Aloha Chicken Panini were delicious. Staff was knowledgeable and very accommodating to food sensitivities.“

“Stopped into this cute little cafe in Sterling I had missed even though I've driven down 12 there a million times. I was looking for a cup of coffee and had an excellent latte. I was surprised to see a pretty extensive breakfast menu, including pancakes and lots of egg dishes, I had assumed it might be just a bakery/coffee place. Plan to stop back again soon for breakfast!“

“I needed some food for the road and was struggling via happy cow to find a place that was open (drove to a couple places unwisely using incorrect hours listed on happy cow vs website lookup). Found this place and it was either a slow day or an off day because only one person was working (friendly/good service) and nothing was in the display cases (I had wanted to pick up a pastry or something for my partner). Had to wait a bit but was glad I'd found this place-the sandwich and smoothie I ordered were just what I needed to keep me fueled up, nourished, and enjoying how delicious and satisfying they were. I'll definitely go back to enjoy the meals I saw on the menu and try whatever gets put into those display cases. I'll probably go to sit down next time so waiting won't bother me (it actually never bothers me if the food is delicious at the end of the day lol) but if you needed to be fast try ordering online“

“Picked up soup and sandwiches to go on a whim and they were all delicious. All together we had the grilled cheese and tomato soup, Italian, and roast beef - everyone was happy. The food was ready quickly, and the salads, cookies, and drinks in the coolers when I went to pick up the order looked really colorful and are reason enough to go back and try something new. Also maybe worth noting - I'm not really a pickle person, but the sandwiches came with sides of sliced pickles. Best I have ever had and I was wishing there were more. I think I like pickles now. Can't wait to go back!“

“From the welcome, to the presentation, to the atmosphere to the final course, I can't possibly tell you how amazing this dinner was. If you're looking for an enjoyable evening produced by a couple who truly loves what they do, this is the place. If I could give them 10 stars I would!“

“Been coming here for twenty years after marrying a local. Great improvements after the ownership switch. Robin runs a great place. Really cleaned it up and improved offerings. Service has always been great and personable and helpful. It's definitely got that small place feel. Nice slice of local flavor. It can get pretty busy at typical peaks. Price is very reasonable for what you get. Two adults and two kids is about $60. Always a favorite.“

“Highly satisfied with my first visit! Came in around 12pm on a Saturday and was served quickly. Variety of menu items but not overwhelming. Tried the turkey club sandwich on sourdough, fresh bread and delicious smoked bacon with fresh veggies. The house blend cold brew iced coffee was GREAT. My husband liked his Americano, but unfortunately they lost his sandwich order. After a while he went to the counter to check in and the staff was very polite and quickly whipped it up for him. However, he asked for no bacon on his brioche sandwich (he’s vegetarian) and… there was a pile of bacon on his sandwich. Good news for me, extra bacon! We will try this place again because it was cute and we liked the coffee and baked goods.“

“This place it's cute, casual, like you are walking into Grandma's house through the back door (the kitchen) Service it's great, very friendly staff, they serve your first cup of tea, loved that. The food was to die for, everything was amazing. We got to try some new things and the scones were the best I ever had, so much so that I didn't even miss the clotted cream (they make their own, it's different but still good)Lovely atmosphere with a bunch of friendly people.The only thing is that it took an hour and a half for us to get our food. We had somewhere else to be so we kind of rushed through tea.Overall, great place with awesome staff and delicious food.“

“We just had my baby shower at the Mountainside Bakery and Cafe and could not have had a more perfect venue! The charm of the house and the huge windows for sunlight to come in really brightened up a cold winter day. The team was so easy to work with and the food and desserts were absolutely delicious! I would recommend anyone looking for a baby shower venue checks out Mountainside!“

“Not only are the teas and shakes the best I’ve ever had but the service is top tier! Kelly, Cortney, Meg & Will always greet me (and all their customers) with a smile and they don’t even have to ask my order since they know it already! Uphill is a 10/10 I highly recommend!“

“My ex-girlfriend put me on to Acoustic Java my sophomore year of college, and while that relationship didn't work out, I owe her my life (and GPA, and crippling caffeine addiction) for introducing me to this heaven-sent coffee shop. My personal favorites are the lavender latte (it sounds weird but it's incredible, I promise), the caramel latte (basic, I know, but it's so rich and flavorful), and for a quick bite, I absolutely slam back the avocado toast. I could go on and on about how great of a place it is to study, chat, enjoy live music, and just chill on any given day-- even if I sometimes have to run into my ex. It's worth it. I'm going to fall into a deep depression when I graduate, and won't be in the area anymore, but I'm enjoying it while I can.“

“Best steak and cheese I've had! This is a place to sit grabb a beer, chill and wait with time for your food. I went on lunch break, so I was in a rush. Definitely will be back with more time, because that sandwich was worth every minute. ?“

“This place is soo good and relatively inexpensive! Amazing bagels, great coffee. I was impressed that the sausage isn’t a sad gray sausage patty, I think it was linguica or something similar. I went through the drive thru which was so helpful with having a baby in the car! So good, definitely going back!“

“Best bread, hands down. Every time I go I try something different and so far everything has been delicious, healthy 7 grains, traditional French, Irish soda bread (both traditional and white chocolate cranberry were amazing!) all different kinds of muffins and their scones! I had biscotti today and that was so good! And everyone work there are always nice and friendly, I feel so lucky to have this little gem near me!“

“Excellent coffee and food at this location. Try to acai bowls or egg sandwiches (both delicious).The staff does a great job servicing customers and takes great care in preparing the food. This is my go-to coffee spot in Clinton.Food or coffee can be enjoyed inside or on tables outside.Parking: Free street parking. If you can't find a spot, there is a small parking area behind the hardware store nearby.Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring your child for an Acai bowl?Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs but it may be difficult for those in a wheelchair if parking is unavailable on the street.“

“This little coffee shop is like a taste of California when I visit Northborough. I live in the Bay Area now, and when I visit family in Massachusetts, this is like a fun little oasis of vegan treats, delicious smoothies, excellent coffees, and friendly vibes. There's usually plenty of seating, the servers are always really sweet and kind, and everything I've gotten from there has been tasty.“

“Best breakfast I’ve had in a longggg time!!! The home fries alone are enough to make me keep coming back but the entire breakfast? DELICIOUS and the pizza donuts are so delicious it’s insane! Absolutely love the food and the atmosphere and will be coming back regularly!!! ❤️“

“Great Bar - Nice Patrons My friends and I came across this bar after eating at the Italian place up this street. Everyone at Cicero's seemed to know each other - it was obvious that we were new there (out of place?), but everyone was really nice to us. I chatted with many other patrons there. The guy sitting next to us won a game he was playing, and bought drinks for everyone at the bar including us. Very comfortable atmosphere. Women's bathroom was very clean. The bartender was very attentive and friendly. I don't live in the area, but if I am again, I will definitely go back. Thanks“

“Stopped in for first time today and got a breakfast sandwich that was so good! The ice coffee was one of the best I have had and there are so many options to choose from. Love the outdoor seating and indoor atmosphere is inviting. Will definitely be back!“

“Food was good, did taste like the grill on some of the French toast but was still good, one of the lady’s can either barely hear or know any English. Went here with my girlfriend and she kinda messed up our order but it was all good. Regular coffee with syrup had a lot of syrup flavor.“
