Svitlana Udovenko: "Lattes are amazing! Pastries change a lot, everything I tried from them was good tho. Sandwiches tasty - fresh breads and all ingredients feel good quality and fresh. Love the place!"
Keri Garel: "Gorgeous every time of year. The area by the Lexington Street Playground is prone to flooding after even the slightest storm, but let's just call it the Somerville Bayou and embrace it."
Eater: "Highland Kitchen specializes in comfort food, a lively ambiance, and strong cocktails. Try the spicy goat stew and the housemade ginger beer (also spicy). [Eater 38 Member]"
The Taste Sheriff: "Boston at its best. Wanna be an insider? Go to Backbar (on a weekday in order to avoid the crowds) and ask Melinda or Sam for something that fits your tastes. You won't be disappointed."
Chanda Ellis: "Get a seat on the side! It's a cozy little area for you and your date where the seats fully recline. Plus a little side table for the drink you can grab at the full bar they have here!"
Scott Williams: "Super modern theater with reserved seats in some rooms. Also, supermarket like snack area and beer!"
ᴡ Martin: "Nine Bar is always a pleasure to visit. The entire staff, from owner to baristas, are skilled & highly knowledgeable- and the products they use are top notch. One of the best croissants in Boston!"
Lindsay D'Andrea: "The most European-style coffee place in the area. Order a shot of espresso to take at the standing bar. The cortado is my go-to here...so good."
