Tony Salehi: $$Andala Coffee House is an authentic Middle Eastern place to go to have a good time.I love the selection of coffees available that are strong, not watered down. While you are enjoying your conversation, I highly recommend ordering some of their sweets too.Overall, this is a good place with a cosmoploitan crowd to relax with and enjoy your time.
motaz alamri: Not worth itجودة الاكل اقل من العادية مقارنة بالاسعار
SuEllen Yoder: The hummus plate was amazing! Great coffee shop with fantastic atmosphere.
Hyder Hasnain: Really good food. Coffee is decent. Quite a lively and interesting place. Tables are close together so you’ll probably overhear some interesting conversations. Attentive staff. Atmosphere can be quite noisy at times. Good place to go on a date, or to study, or socialize with friends.
Arnav Sampigethaya: Really nice vibes and I was so appreciative that they were one of the only places open late at night in all of Boston
Samir Dahdouh: Not bad hookah , food is not badFood: 4/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Eoin Kenny: This is a very nice and unique place but it's almost a victim of its own success as typically you will wait a really long time to be served in my experience.
alex sludds: Recommended dishes Jerusalem Egg SandwichMore
Qusai Akoud: terrible service
Matt S: The pistachio cake very good
J D: This place has ridiculous, dysfunctional service. Every single time you walk in, there’s either no hostess to seat you, or they’re too busy to seat you promptly, or you get seated and then wait for ages for anyone to acknowledge you or take your order. I just got up and left after being seated and then forgotten about while the wait staff attended to a queue of four people getting coffee drinks to go. The food is fine, but please hire and provide competent service.
John Mize: Easily my favorite spot in Cambridge. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the food is great. I love the hummus
Lamia Youseff: This has been my goto place in Boston/Cambridge since 2010 (13+ years ago). Unpretentious hidden gem where you can sit down, eat, do work, get gooood coffee and probably the best fresh orange juice you will ever get anywhere else. Try their "fool", "kefta belseneia" or warm "shakshuka." You will be pleasantly surprised by the quality and tasteful bites.
rawad fel: Omg very bad food service very slow + they put rice in shakshowkaI was wondering where’s the chef from ? They are Latino chefs not for medial East that’s why there’s rice in my shakshowkaI will never back
shuning wang: My new favorite cafe place for studying now! Ordered Moroccan mint tea and a coconut dessert. I just like the atmosphere inside. Everyone is friendly and the interior design is so interesting! Love the WiFi and people there who study or play chess :)))) Fun place!
Ashley: a warm, cozy interior and delicious food but the service was a bit disappointing ngl. it took a while for each meal to arrive. and i don’t think our server even said hello. :( it was confusing but worth it for the food.Recommended dishes Lentil Soup, Shakshokeh, Pita Bread …More

Madeleine Song: The staff was so sweet and knowledgeable about their menu and recommendations! They are excellent at labelling and accomodating allergies. Great selection of pastries, sweets, and savories. Very tasty coffee too!Recommended dishes Muffins …More
Tina Lieu: Terrific neighborhood cafe to meet friends and run errands. Indoor seating is limited but the outside patio area is a good size. I like the Vietnamese fresh rolls and the cold brew coffee. They also have juice boxes for kids and a nice assortment of pastries. Note there is currently no public restroom, but there is one at Star Market near the meat department, which is only two doors down in the same complex.

Brenna Morrissey: Love Cafe Zing! Yummy pastries from Iggy's and if course solid coffee and creations sourced from Kickstand Cafe in Arlington. Not to mention it's in Porter Square books and is the perfect place to grab coffee and a book.

Gypsy Place Coffee and Juice Bar: what do users think?
Sammie Annie: I’ve had a ton of lattes in my life—almost one everyday. When i say this was the WORST i’ve ever had i mean it. It was incredibly burnt. I had to throw it out bc i almost started vomiting. will never go here again. what kind of coffee shop can’t even make a latte correctly? you had one job.
Athanasios Lazarou: They made me a Freddo Cappuccino!! Παίδες δεν ξέρετε ποσο καιρό προσπαθώ να βρω κάποιος να μου φτιάξει!
Sunny Qin: The vibe is really good- plants, windows and nice seats. But i have to say their food is very disappointing! I tried three breakfast items and liked none…
Samuel Bosch: Recommended dishes Acai BowlMore
Shiran Soholitsky: Cute place to sit with laptop or just for coffee/smoothie and grabbing a bite. The bagels are really good and there's a lot of options. The place has this cool, chill vibe that I really liked.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

A C: This place was great. Has a great vibe and love the decor. Food was really good too. There isn’t much seating though.
Jonathan Che: Cozy, hip little spot to grab a coffee. Gets pretty busy during peak times. Smoothie bowls are funFood: 4/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Lia: Please remove the slur from your name.
Henry Hwang: Highly recommend the omelette if you want something more savory (ask for the kayo on the side, as the flavor overwhelms the egg a bit.) Pairs nicely with a toasted bagel and cream cheese. Acai bowls are great too!Food: 5/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Bagel with Cream Cheese, Acai Bowl …More
Anaïs Schlienger: All time favorite. Perfect everyday spot. Coffee, juices, smoothies, snacks. LOVED the snacks (peanut sticks and rose bomb). Smoothies really good too. I live the atmosphere, nice seating area, couches, cutes tables.
Sarah Wang: Great vibes inside and I loved the pearl smoothie!! I felt like I time traveled to the end of my smoothie, and I was so sad when I finished. The omelette was very tasty too and made in a waffle iron! so fun!
Paul Kernfeld: A calming, organic atmosphere
Dameon Z: Atmosphere: 2 of 2 StarsFood: 2 of 2 StarsStaff: 1 of 1 StarSUMMARY:My wife and I were in Cambridge on 11/12 and wanted to ensure we started our day with a healthy and fulfilling meal. We came across this Juice bar via a google search and I have to say, neither of us were disappointed. The food, juices & smoothies were refreshing and delicious. In addition to taste, they were all prepared same day! We would both highly recommend this Juice Bar to anyone looking to start their day with gratifying and nutritious foods.ATMOSPHERE:The Gypsy Place is conveniently located on the corner of Hampshire St. and Windsor St. They have a small section of outdoor seating and a little dog bowl for any passing thirsty K9s. Inside was decorated in such a way that it was not only obvious that it was a cafe but it also had a chill, zen, hipster flair as well. The live plants, boho furniture and contemporary wall art, all made the environment very calming (which is a win for a fast paced coffee shop). My wife and I are spiritual people so we had a major bias of appreciation for the Hamsa logo they created.FOOD:My wife ordered the Acai Bowl and a Jade Juice while I ordered the Omelette along with the Topaz Smoothie. The bowl and juice came out fairly quick while my omelette and smoothie took a bit longer which wasn't surprising given the made-to-order, fresh style. The drinks were sincerely revitalizing and the food was tasty!STAFF:The staff were efficient in the order intake and output. Overall they did they're jobs as expected. If there was any room for improvement, in my opinion, it would be to have a more welcoming presence whether it's with a genuine smile when customers approach the counter or a "have a great day" after they pick up their food. These small gestures go a long way in tying together an already great establishment.
Anastassiya Petrova: Great breakfast place with excellent vegetarian options. We tried fresh juices, their desserts, avocado toasts. Cozy place to chill, work or meet with friends.
Elisa Beltran: Turkish coffee is great and good size. The acai bowls are huge too they always layer the bottom with granola which I appreciate. There's enough topping for each bite. Very cozy to get work done usually find parking in the mornings
Robo Cob: Very nice, eclectic vibe. Good coffee
Callister: Super cute shop! I absolutely love the interior it’s so inviting! Friendly staff, great latte and overall feel at the store. I would definitely recommend checking it out.
Yasws: Excellent espresso and cappuccino, with lots of vegan mill options. Also try their breakfast toast: it is amazing.
Denise Patnod Lic. Ac.: Yummy eggs. Coffee good too. Fun colours all around us! I will go back. Thank you.Denise Patnod, L. Acup, Harv Sq☺️

Simon's Coffee Shop: what do users think?
Thao Nguyen: 10/10 ice chai latte 👌🏼
Cameron Salamone: 💯
H Thaker: Stick to the lattes. The drip coffee tastes like it's from a Keurig coffee machine. Good neighborhood vibe.
Valentin Salazar: A good café, a little bit expensive but with a rich atmosphere, The coffee is nice.The only thing is that the baristas only speak one languageWheelchair accessibility: This café has wheelchairs accessibility
LazyCheetah: Drip coffee was alright, the Rubios latte (not sure how to spell it lol) on the other hand, was very tasty!Staffs were nice and friendly, bathroom was kinda dirty.Food: 4/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 3/5 …More
Esther Ye: Very unique and chic vibe for a place to hang out, have some coffee, and a quick bite. Their sandwiches and scones are quite popular.
Riko Cribbs: A little over $14 for a BLT sandwich and Chai Latte (I like mine with a shot of espresso, which I'm sure was a little upcharge). This was my first time ordering from here. I was in and out, can't speak to the "ambience" of the place. But...The barista today did me a solid, and I'm forever grateful for that. Wish I caught their name, but give em a raise!FOODI asked for the multi grain bread on the BLT, and wasn't really sure what to expect cus I've never had Iggy's multigrain before (I'm low key obsessed with their ciabatta bread tho!) but it was really good — if you're a fan of true grain breads. The crunchy kind.Whatever condiment they put on the BLT is a mystery to me, but they put just the right amount of spread on it. Not too thick, not squishing out the sides when you take a bite. Just enough. And it amps up the umami, elevating it from your typical, bland BLT.DRINKBe aware that they don't have a large coffee menu. They're pretty bare bones as far as coffee goes. Don't expect to get any fancy flavors like "mint chip julip pomegranate with avocado foam and a pump of apple crisp flavor." No. None of that. There are photos of their menu posted on here, I suggest taking a close look at the coffee + hot drinks board before making the trip.The Chai latte (hot) with a shot of espresso was delicious in my opinion. No added cream or sugar necessary. I mean it helps when you start with a GOOD CHAI, and I felt they started with a good Chai. I didn't find the espresso to be overpowering on the flavor either, but I'm someone who enjoys a good strong coffee flavor. Each sip I could taste both, and it was lovely.**NOTE**You cannot order drinks over the phone from Simon's. Must order in person(maybe you can order drinks thru Uber Eats/DoorDash tho, I haven't looked)

otterenko: I love the cozy vibe and delicious coffee at Simon’s. I spent many afternoons working on my dissertation here. To the reviewer who complained that this coffee shop isn’t like Starbucks: you're right. This is absolutely not like Starbucks, a giant global corporation. It is a small business run by a local resident, helping to build community. Thank goodness Simon’s is still going strong after so many years, thanks to the support of many students and neighbors.
Andy Marr: Perfect little coffee shop and minimal queue compared to Bagelsaurus
Lance Li: It’s unfortunate that I have to leave a 3 ⭐️ review for Simmon’s Coffee, because the latte I ordered here was smooth and tasted good. But pricy, for $5/latte, it’s more expensive than Starbucks, and on par with Blue Bottles. I honestly think it is over priced.The real reason for the 2 ⭐️ knock off was the fee-based WiFi, as shown in my picture. In 2022, I have not seen a coffee shop that charges it’s patrons for WiFi usages. And give them credit, they have hourly, daily, even monthly subscription, but if this is the owner’s way of limiting seating time at the coffee shop, it’s going to turn away quite a number of guests.Why doesn’t Starbucks charge for WiFi even though a lot of its patrons literally make Starbucks their “shared office space?” It’s building customer retention.So if you are planning to get some work done at a coffee shop with WiFi, be ready to spend some doughs at Simon’s.
James Barna: no wifi :'

Eoin Kenny: Good coffee, I think Nero always has super slow service, but all else good.Food: 4/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Robyn Westervelt: This Cafe Nero has a lovely atmosphere and relaxing music. Sitting by the fireplace in the cozy living room chairs is wonderful. There are friendly staff here and good food. It gets busy at the hours you might expect but you should generally find a seat. I would recommend this cafe if you plan to meet a friend or a business meeting. There are outlets for your laptop and other devices. The bathrooms are generally clean. This is right across from the Porter Square T stop on the Red Line or the commuter rail.Kid-friendliness: I’ve seen kids here and baby strollers. All is ok here with kids.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp with a slight decline in the cafe and the main entrance has no step.
Olivia Glick: Really nice atmosphere.
Pathana C: Great drinks/food and great place to work (outlets for every table)!
Sara Alice: Better customer service training needed. Just had a cold and standoffish experience with a barista here. I stood at the register looking over the menu, no customers behind me. When I looked up the barista was down at the other end of the of the counter, leaning against the counter with his arms crossed and asked me in a barely audible voice what I wanted. As I waited, other customers came in and the process to prepare drinks and take payment from customers between the two baristas was disjointed and made for a confusing experience for the three of us trying to shuffle around the register.As I waited to pay they took orders from two others and processed payment for one of them. All while I stood at the register ready to pay for what I had ordered before anyone else was in the cafe.
Elidijon Tafa: Great Place, Great Vibe and Great selection! The staff is always friendly and welcoming.
Hasangani Edema: I got yelled and mocked by a lady barista here while waiting to get my coffee! She asked me what my problem is and said I was staring. I don't think that's a nice way to treat people, I was just waiting for my coffee and was looking at the way my coffee was being made. Not coming back here again. Lacks empathy
Trek Ryder: I ordered a medium hot chocolate and received a nearly cold cup of foam. I kept waiting for the foam to end and the liquid to show up but it never did. I would have asked the staff for a proper cup of hot chocolate but they seemed a bit cold so I didn’t want to waste energy with them. This is the second time I’ve been to a Nero; the other one was in the prudential center mall and the staff were Boston cranky. Maybe they aren’t paid or treated well? Something needs to change. Also the bathroom at Porter Square was unacceptable, as another reviewer noted earlier. No wonder the newer chain Tatte is so popular. On the bright side, it is a spacious cafe with good seating options.
Dan Drago: Very nice selection of hot & cold coffee drinks, quality pastries and sandwiche. The 4-cheese fritatta was delicious. Friendly staff, clean comfortable spaces and a nice ambiance. Highly recommended.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Mocha Regular 12oz …More
Richard Guinn: This Cafe Nero location is smaller yet just as cozy as the other locations I’ve been to. The staff, as always, are pleasant. And the beverages are great
Poojitha Shetty: Great coffee and friendly staff. The setup is cozy and great to read a book or work.But the restrooms are really dirty and are not cleaned on a regular basis (maybe once a week or even less). It is very unhygenic. The management should definitely take this feedback.
Lia Odiaga: This place is fantastic and the baristas are so lovely!
Ananto Wibisono: nice place, comfy, good service. Coffee quality is also great. Love it!!
John Ferrier: Much quieter and relaxing than the Central Square one.
Marlin Craig: Really good coffee and food 😋
S Jackson: Could be a very nice coffee and study spot. Unfortunately, the bathroom, when I went yesterday, was not clean at all. Also, the staff did not smile and weren't very friendly. Nice customer relations is important.
ENGR. GANKUR NANSEL PAUL (PROFESSOR): Dine in: Yes Outdoor seating: Yes Takeout: Yes Delivery: Yes Curbside pickup: YesMore
Roman Pope: Weirdly enough, there aren't that many shops around this place, and it is stashed between a Starbucks and a Dunkin Donuts that are not too far. It's not too hipster, but at the same time it has your milk free options, vegan croissant and breakfast options. The coffee is good, and the food is ordinary. All in all, I would say it's worth the walk and support this place, especially since the prices are more reasonable than Starbucks.
Daya Puls: Nice store, open, coffee was good.Bathroom clean.Features: High ceiling.

Sara Modiano: I tried the asian smoked salmon salad which was good, but a bit pricey. There is generally not enough seating at this location, but I would like to try other menu items.
Waseem Kawaf: Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5More
Jade B: I have enjoyed the tuna melt at Vester many times but I’m frustrated that the service/value has gotten worse. I think it used to cost $1 to add tomato, then there was no option to add anything and now they took away the homemade potato chips all while increasing prices. They opened a second location in this timeframe…
Shiran Soholitsky: The coffee is great, there's a lot of unique different flavors.I didn't eat there, only a chocolate chip cookie (that was really good).It's a little noisy for people who want to come and work, but it's a really nice place to sit for coffee and grab some breakfast.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Isabelle Lippincott: Had the best turkey sandwich + americano for lunch and even better service! One of the managers, Chris, chatted to me about coffee beans and their flavor - he was very knowledgeable and gave great recommendations. The green goddess sandwich had delicious fresh pesto and exceeded my expectations for a quick lunch stop. 5/5 stars for the quality of ingredients and excellent service!
Melody S: I've gone here a couple of times now and I've thought it's about time to leave a review. I always get a yinyang (half drip half hk milk tea) with lavender and this place is one of the only where I can actually taste the lavender! Their food is also really fresh, but I've only gotten itonce.
Kelly McElligott: Great breakfast sandwich and delicious cookie butter latte with oat milk. Cute cafe and friendly staff!
C Calm: Breakfasts are great and tasty, but a bit expensive. Try their toast with egg, avocado, and smoked salmon. Also their cold pressed orange juice.It is a good place for lunch too. I love their tomato soup which comes with a toast.Not super happy with their tuna melt, though I am a fan of tuna melt in general.Also I wish some measure of calories in their foods is announced. Sometimes the toasts seem greasy.
Pedro Colón: Arguably the best coffee/lunch spot in the area. The prosciutto croissant, the coffee and the staff are great!! It is a bit expensive but worth it.Recommended dishes Croissant, Prosciutto …More

Sarah Lu: Local cafe with a sophisticated ambience. The drink offerings are diverse and unique. The chicken caprese sandwich was delicious. The matcha latte was okay but not a stand out. A bit pricey but a nice place to stop by and meet up with friends.
Samantha Gutiérrez: Vester is the place where we come as a group from MIT at least once a week. Their Chai and Matcha latte can not be beaten, and the cashier’s even know my name! Also, nothing like the croissant prosciutto + egg sandwich !Recommended dishes Croissant, Prosciutto …More
Erin Mulcahy: This has quickly become our favorite breakfast spot here in Kendall.For the past two visits, Chris has helped us to order and throughout our visit. He gets every detail right—even when we are asking for quads, changing milk, adding syrups, he always gets it all! The past two times our food came out before our drinks, which is awesome since we were so hungry. But Chris went the extra mile to walk our drinks to our seats so we didn’t have to leave our hot breakfasts.We appreciate all the staff at Vester and will be returning again soon!
Coby Lee: Beautiful coffee, amazing pastries and stunning interior. A calm environment surrounded by ambient noise, perfect for a solo date or with friends. Went twice in one day because of this!
Andrew Spencer: Great coffee and food - particularly the toasts! A little bit of Copenhagen in Cambridge
Traci Jovančević: Food: 3/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 3/5More
Emma Chory: Best latte in Kendall! Vanilla bean latte is absolutely delicious. The staff are amazing— the customer service is bar none! Chris learned our names the first time we visited and always double checks on all the customers. Food is excellent- brioche egg and cheese breakfast sandwich is a fave. I’m also addicted to their rice crispy treats— especially the flavors Cinnamon Toast Crunch, fruity pebbles, and cap n crunch. Highly recommend everything on the menu.
lila aronoff: I have tried every cafe in Kendall Square and countless in Cambridge, and VESTER is my absolute favorite. The others seem to just exist so I don't get sick of it (if that is even possible). Everything is amazing and they always get the ingredient ratio right. Their lattes are actually hot which is a huge problem at other places - who wants a lukewarm latte? Their food is satisfying and energizing but not heavy. I would gladly eat anything on the menu but my favorites are the veggie breakfast burrito and tuna melt. The vanilla bean latte is the perfect amount of sweetness!

Sara Nagelberg: Way too crowded as a cafe. Food and coffee are mediocre but fine. Love Lamplighter though.Food: 3/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 3/5 …More
Lucy Scott: Customer service not great. They gave me cold lentil soup that was meant to be hot and weren’t interested in resolving.
Rachel Romanczukiewicz: Really enjoyed stopping by on a recent trip to MA. The cold brew flight was great, but my favorite was the raspberry cold brew. Also had a biscuit and it was great.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Cold Brew Flight …More
Shiran Soholitsky: The best coffee in Cambridge for sure. The coffee is amazing with a great rich flavor that is really hard to find around.I don't usually eat there, only a pastry and a coffee, but every single one of the pastries is delicious. The rest of the food looks really good, and most people are sitting there for a quick breakfast (the prices are definitely fair). It is a great spot for studying or working with your laptop. The music is really good and it feels like an open space for students and people working from home. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Rob Phippen: Lovely chilled atmosphere, and nice friendly staff. Espresso pretty good, too.
Amir Aharoni: Excellent café in Cambridge. Yummy burritos and kouign-amann, and of course, excellent coffee.The space is shared with the Lamplighter brewery, but the cashiers are separate.
Kate W: Excellent coffee, carefully prepared. This place converted me from “meh” to a coffee drinker. They use highlawn farms milk, which is delicious.
Al L.: Try the double mocha! Ice latte and regular coffee is great too. Can’t go wrong with an egg sandwich either.
Eve Ruff: Great coffee and absolutely delicious pastries. Highly recommend the cinnamon roll.
Juan Francisco Armando: Excellent coffee and excellent everything else: had an egg and cheese english muffin which was 🏻, so I had to go back to the counter to try more stuff which I took with me: cinnamon roll (puff pastry, not bun-style if you are interested) and the passion fruit brioche which is absolutely fantastic. Kudos to this place.

Jessica S: 지나가다가 들린 카페~ 옆에 바로 맥주 만드는 곳이 있어서 맥주도 팔고 커피도 마실 수 있는 조용한 분위기 카페~ 직원들도 친절하고 핫초코도 맛있었다~^^

Lo: Went here for brunch. Not bad but not a place to go out of your way for. We had the Cuban sandwich, the avocado toast and the oat milk latte. Everything was edible but not delicious.
Laura Rinaldi: Pleasantly surprised by how good the coffee was. Got the mocha with skim milk and it was delicious. Employees were all very kind & welcoming, and they had good music playing. Will definitely be coming back! The pastries we tried were great, too.
The Unicycling Unicorn: Good coffee at a reasonable price! Free wifi and clean bathrooms.
AP S: Breakfast sandwich is great (combo of sauce + banana peppers is on point) and the coffee is solid too
David Horning: Excellent cafe by day with good coffee and food. I had an egg sandwich that was delicious. By night it's also a most excellent brewery. Only thing was when I visited almost every seat was taken with most of them being people working from their laptops, but I guess I can't blame them.

Revival Cafe+Kitchen: what do users think?
Sammy Shalaby: Haven't been disappointed by anything I've ordered from here. Delicious and vital to the local community here in Alewife
Lenny Mendicino: What a great neighborhood gem! Each and every component they use to prepare these crafted menu items taste fresh as though straight from the farmers garden. Bread items are carb heaven, the biscuits, French rolls, sweet potato bread, etc. Yes please! The service above all rest, make this a go to each and every time. Friendly staff that are passionate about the food/ selections. Thank y'all!

Patricia: I came here reminiscing about Crema and fond memories in that old cafe. I got a delicious and healing ginger steamer to help with my allergies and the nostalgic English muffins with homemade strawberry jam. There is much seating space, decorated with plants. Good background music selection, friendly and helpful staff, and a vibrant yet comfortable atmosphere.
Rami Farawi: There is a 5% “hospitality charge” if you want to sit down with your order (as opposed to to-go), but you have to pick up your coffee when they yell your name, then you have to put away your own dish in the bin. What’s the fee for then? Then there’s of course the tip they ask for too. Staff doesn’t leave from behind the counter. Doesn’t seem like “hospitality” to me. Just give me the water bill too while you’re at it.

Gwyneth Martin: My coworker and I hosted a private event here and it went phenomenally! The owner, Alec, was very easy to work with prior to the event and extremely friendly with our guests throughout the duration of the event. The staff working the event were also extremely friendly and accommodating. The venue is very cute and aesthetically pleasing. There were a lot of options for gluten-free and vegan options for food which was much appreciated. Overall, we had a very successful event and we will definitely be using Revival Cafe & Kitchen again in the future.
Nathan Lowry: Best coffee in the Cambridge area and excellent service.
Matt Bemis: Recommended dishes SandwichMore
Aaron Tayte (Tayte): I wanted to love this spot, but honestly was a tad underwhelmed.The Golden Crema Latte was about $5-6 USD but was loaded with a little too much cinnamon/spices and had no real taste beyond that.The "Ms. Sweet Potato" wrap (about $10) was also disappointing. It needed some gorgonzola cheese, extra dressing, avocado - anything to help it feel more unique and satisfying. It was essentially just a cold potato + some greens thrown into a wrap.The atmosphere/music also left something to be desired.Great service, though!Parking: A parking lot is available at the back of the building.
Esat Gok: Better version of StarbucksFood: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Sarah Marie: Any hot food comes out saturated in grease, but there are a few decent things on the menu. However, recently they have added a 5% junk fee on top of their already increased prices, and I'm over it.
Hrudya Viswanadh: Absolutely love this place! We go there more often than we should, but we just can't help it.Love their coffee and sandwiches. Try their Crispy Eggplant Sandwich and any of their seasonal lattes! My absolute favorite is their housemade almond butter. Simply delicious!
Raymond D. Crookes: One of my go to restaurants! Great breakfast, lunch, and pastries.

B yourself luv yourself: I had worest iced tea I ever had at Harvard sq. I don't recommend any one the site to have iced tea.
Tazmir Nahar: Oh the coffee 😍
Gladys Gonzalez: There is this person a spanish guy he works as a barista there he is one of the most amazing employees I've ever seen he remembers everyone's name and it's so kind and every single time I go there I'm 1 of the happiest people because he brightens my day also the drinks are amazing and they also make me feel better I go there a lot because of the service and the quality of drinks.This is honestly one of the best locations and very good for just relaxing and being on the computer or meeting up with someone it's a great spot!!!
Seth Gertz-Billingsley: Better than Starbucks, but still basic, quick coffee. Nothing to call home about. If you have a Capital One card just go to the Capital One Cafe since it serves the same coffee for 50% off.

Eoin Kenny: I quite like this place it's in a lovely location with nice coffee. However sometimes extremely weird people do come in which is a bit off putting.
Danostories: Excellent place
shinlin LIN: great coffee store!nice staff
Stephanie Kaiser: I am a regular at this Peet's location and have always enjoyed sitting for a while as I drank my coffee and took care of some work. Unfortunately, I have witnessed an employee (Chip) of the location behave in a blatantly racist manner towards Asian customers on multiple occasions. He constantly treats them as if they cannot speak or understand English, and as if they are somehow dumb for it. Yesterday, however, I witnessed him refer to an Asian woman as "A Peet's Name," implying not only that Asian individuals all have "weird," "foreign" names that must be Americanized in order to receive service, but also that it is acceptable to use the phrase "Peet's Name" as a proper noun for an Asian person. I submitted a complaint on the Peet's website and received multiple responses assuring me that the issue would be dealt with, but today the same manager was at the counter again, working as if nothing had happened. The fact that he did not face so much as a suspension, especially given his history of treating Asian customers as an inconvenience to him, is absolutely abhorrent to me. As someone who is mixed race Asian, I absolutely cannot continue to give my money to Peet's, an establishment that takes no actions to hold bigots accountable, and in fact continues to employ them, creating an unsafe environment for all.
M Cal: Patrick at Peet's in Harvard Square: What a great employee!I want to thank Patrick for his dedication to his clients and his excellent carefully-crafted coffee. Among the cafes in the area, Peet's is my favorite and became my go-to cafe, and that is entirely due to Patrick's welcoming service.
Enrica Finotto: Very nice staff! Pretty location
Ram alram: chip and how do you know what chip .. the warrior man. The man who conquered all nationalities in this state that calls for freedom and equality.. the state that equalizes people. Chip, who destroyed everything that the state of humanity has done, the ancient United States, a country of respect, literature and culture.. for a piece of bread or coffee that a person can drink in his home.. you pay money from your free money, so someone comes as a chip who tells you that he is the one who paid the money and that he is the kind and that he is not Coffee in all states other than me. I don't know where to run this shop. If some people do not write, it is politeness and respect that they have. I saw him yesterday politely with a person with tall muscles. Because he knows that if he misbehaves with him, he would make him sweep the floor with his tongue.
