Coffee Shop · Harvard Square · 10 tips and reviews
Brendon Smith: There is a surprising dearth of specialty coffee in Harvard Square, so this Blue Bottle location is a welcome addition. Enjoy one of the excellent made-to-order drinks in a bright, harmonious space.
Coffee Shop · East Cambridge · 39 tips and reviews
Brendon Smith: This is a great little coffee shop that serves Counter Culture beans. They have the best batch drip coffee in the city, with free refills! Chow down on a liege waffle if you get hungry.
Coffee Shop · Downtown Boston · 56 tips and reviews
Brendon Smith: George Howell provides some of the finest specialty coffee, supporting farmers and paying close attention to every step of the production process. Great outreach and education too.

Café · Fenway - Kenmore - Audubon Circle - Longwood · 62 tips and reviews

Coffee Shop · Fenway - Kenmore - Audubon Circle - Longwood · 48 tips and reviews
Brendon Smith: Bright, clean space in Fenway. Pavement roasts their own beans, and they are also known for their bagels. Helpful spot for those stuck in the cultural dead zone of the Longwood Medical Area.

Coffee Shop · Back Bay West · 114 tips and reviews
Brendon Smith: Solid espresso and batch drip coffee. I haven't been impressed with their pour-over coffees. I miss AeroPress, but I realize it's difficult to brew in a cafe setting. I love the cushioned window seat.
