    Cappuccino is wet and good, though prefer the milk to have some microfoam folded through. But this is Boston and about as good as it gets

    Another great spot in Cambridge to drink a lovely latte. One problem only, they have a limited parking spot, so you may have a huge problem looking for spot. But latte wise, Wonderful.

    Although coffee can be a little inconsistent, the pastries are always on point! Especially the lemon lavender scones...

    The younger sister shop to barismo, this fresh new high volume cafe quickly has become a Cambridge favorite. Excellent espresso and drip coffee, full kitchen. Fresh retail stocked twice a week.

    Since the pandemic you order at the door and pick up at the window. But they have outdoor seating, so you can enjoy your coffee

    Cool space with plenty of room to work. Stella pourovers - not bitter, can taste the flavor notes

    Great mocha, pay with Square, and pour over coffee. Feels like Sightglass in SF except Dwelltime has free wifi.

    Great space. Tasty iced coffee. Most attitude-filled barista I've ever met, & I practically live in coffee shops.

    Lack of outlets make it difficult to camp in what otherwise would be a great work/study/read environment. Lemon poppyseed scone is divine.

    Pour over is expensive but worth it. Cold brew is delicious too.

    The sauce on the eggs Benedict is not to be missed. Ask for some of it on your quiche as well.

    The coffee is pretty good, but the environment isn't as good as it used to be. They no longer have wifi, for example

    Use levelup to pay-get $5 credit when you spend $30, it's like getting a free drink!

    Grumpy, grumpy, grumpy service! You'd think the free coffee would keep them more alert than their guests!

    Darker roast than I'm used to, but better than the average coffee in America.
