Breakfast burrito is perfect with a black dark roast coffee
Chris RhodesFebruary 13, 2011The Somerville Smog sounds odd but is pretty awesome.. try it, u won't be disappointed.
The oatmeal here is excellent- very generous portion too!
Gerald HastingsNovember 25, 2014The Branch is my favorite here. PK pouch an Monkey Wrench are close seconds.
Dave WalshOctober 30, 2015Don't think about using WiFi unless you bring your own hotspot or $7! They freakin' charge for internet access! Once spent $12, then learned this fcuked up fact...refund & left. No WiFi? Kiss my a$$!
- Need to get into vulture mode to find a good spot . Green tea iced latte and pulley are the best on the menu .
Lattes are super powerful--a great "wake me up" or midday boost!
The lemon scone here is bomb. It's seriously one of the most delicious, softest scones you'll ever eat.
Super friendly staff and the "Bow" sandwich is delicious!
I don't know what they do to their soy mocha's but they are UH-MAY-ZING
Did I just spend five dollars on the most delicious green tea latte? YES and blissfully!
Sean DohertyMarch 22, 2012A tad pricey for the budget of a student, but given that it's so good, I can deal.
p cool vibe but they make you pay for wifi smdh. three guys writing a screenplay out of five 🚶🚶🚶.
The Vietnamese coffee is made from real Vietnamese high fructose corn syrup.- I'm in love with the barista who drew the anarchy symbol on my latte.
- If you say the right password in the photo booth you will get a FBI briefing video.
Unless you specify, your raspberry lime rickey will likely be a lime rickey with a tiny bit of raspberry.
mmmm, apple cider- perfect for a fall day. bonus: halloween decorations are spooktacular ;)
- Great coffee but only apple power adapters work on the outlets.
- Green tea latte is also the best thing to happen to tea.
- Get a pot of tea and settle in for a while. Delightful.

"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."
Lindsay D'Andrea - 6.0
"The sandwiches are outstanding, the espresso is the best around, and you can play a record on the turn table. A great new addition to the neighborhood. A strong alternative to bloc 11 or Sherman cafe."
