50 Best Cafes near Belmont

“I've been going to Ovenbird for over a year now. The staff are always kind and the food and drinks are always delicious! I would especially recommend the strawberry rhubarb hand pies. Also, if you're visiting the Acton Farmers' Market, be sure to check if Ovenbird is there that day.“

“Who doesn’t love a good old fashioned cafe-bookstore combo? It’s awesome enough that we’ve got a bookstore back in Belmont Center, and the cafe really sweetens the deal. (Also the bear on the menu is bomb!)“

“I loved every single bite! I used to frequent “Andros” and was so bummed when it closed. I’m so glad “My Other Kitchen” is here—especially with the same salad dressing which is amazing on its own! I plan to eat my way through their menu—everything looks scrumptious! ❤️“

“Love Belmont location, very great employees, great turkey avocado sandwich on sourdough, today didn’t like lamb kabob pits sandwich,lamb too spicy so employees let me have something else and didn’t charge me for another sandwich. Friendly employees too.“

“This place was amazing the bubble tea 10/10. My dad really liked their ice cream. Although it’s a bit quiet could use some friendly music. Adorable decorations the staff was very very friendly. I love this place so much.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly all the drinks and ice cream is amazing recommend!“

“Delicious, Yummy, Friendly, Locally owned, with baking ingredients specialities! We’re so happy to have this warm and inviting place around the corner from where we live. #support local !!“

“Great tapas / quite filling“

“Fig is the best! Their takeout window basically got me through the pandemic, and I feel very lucky that this is my local. As a certified scone-hater, their blueberry scone is the best I've ever had. I recommend their lattes, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches (the cheddar cheese is SHARP), and chia pudding. Their lunch sandwiches are also great. 10/10 for staff, vibes, food, and coffee.“

“Went there for a corporate holiday gathering. The staff were terrific and it was such a fun, interesting chance to learn, laugh and connect with colleagues. Staff are so attentive, kind and patient. A wonderful place!“

“I had the Hot honey glazed chicken sandwich. It was the best vegan sandwich I’ve ever eaten and I’ve had a lot of vegan sandwiches.“

“If you’re looking for a place that’s clean, safe, and FUN to go highly recommend. Awesome food and drinks ($5 sandwiches during happy hour!), lovely outdoor patio dining, and there are still games available to play sanitized between people! So happy to come back here again and get the same great service.“

“This is a great little coffee shop with good coffee and great vibes. There is a good amount of seating available despite the small space with a few bar stools. Both baristas were very friendly and helpful to myself and another international customer. They gave both of different ideas for places to visit and see while we were in town. The food looked great but I did not eat there so I can’t really rate that side of the business.“

“Unique, delicious pastry. Best croissants and sourdough bread. Nice people. Can sit inside or outside.“

“Amazing coffee and food! Not super sweet like other shops and the coffee is flavorful! Great friendly service!“

“Amazing Staff, amazing food !!! If You’re in Harvard Sq. don’t miss out!“

“What a cozy little place and such beautiful cakes! Plus, it's run by a Southeast Asian girl, so they're not too sweet!!

Thai Tea Cake: The Thai milk tea flavor is balanced and delicate. The cake itself is soft yet slightly coarse, and the cream is smooth and creamy. It's very pleasant to eat.

Ube Latte: It tastes like the ube milk tea or ube ice cream cones I used to eat as a child, but it's not as sweet, and you can taste the good quality milk.“

“Whoever bakes their scones has a gift!“

“Casual cafe that sells high quality french/ Mediterranean inspired pastries and entrees. Love the shakshuka, its a must have!!! Brownies and pistachio tart was yummy. There's so many of them in Boston, you can pretty much find it no matter where u are.“

“Cute little city coffee cafe! Just a hop in from right off the main streets, they had a really nice selection of coffee, teas, pastries, soups, salads, etc. It’s very cozy inside with tables, chairs and low lighting. It was decently quiet inside, and the staff is friendly and helpful with suggestions. We got two pistachio lattes and they were incredibly good. Not too heavy on flavoring and they didn’t taste artificial. Overall, a nice stop for a bite and drink.“

“We ate at bom dough when we visited my grandson who lives on Cambridge Street . Food was delicious and unique. Would love to send him a gift card , and would also eat there again if we visit him.“

“So sad. Today was their last day in Allston. Going to miss them...and their banana bread!“

“Exceptional English muffins and breakfast items! The best breakfast sandwich I’ve ver had and they have quite a variety. Everything made here is very quality and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. One of the best cappuccinos I’ve ever had as well. Highly recommend!“

“Here from Chicago on a rainy Sunday morning. Looking for a breakfast place near our hotel. Saw this online and was 5 minute walk so we headed over. Surprisingly great coffee is always a good start. The food was delicious! Pancakes were thick, light and fluffy. Good sausage and eggs. Service was very attentive- seemed to be a family run place. Highly recommend!“

“Pretty busy, even on a rainy day. Pastry selection was nice and really liked the vibe. Not too much seating but was able to snag a spot as people were coming and going. No laptop policy.

Got an iced blueberry matcha and latte with their homemade vanilla syrup. Funfetti monkey bread was delicious too.“

“SUCH A PERFECT SPOT. I’ve been here more than 10 times and never been disappointed by food or service. It’s totally a neighborhood favorite but I don’t hear enough non-Somerville people talking about Basma!!!! My favorite place to take anyone anytime because their menu is so varied and everything is great,
its just so inviting. Theyve got these gorgeous big windows and good seating everywhere. Highly recommend their chicken sumac panini (basically any panini haha) and the shakshuka is incredibleeeee.“

“We bought GH coffee in Boston a couple years ago. Best coffee ever!“

“After living nearby for more than a year, I finally visited Bikeeny Caffe this week. The pastries were delightful! My favorites were the Italian cheese blend pastry and the honey pecan pastry in the photo I’ve included. The employees were cheerful and kind. I plan to return at least once every week!“

“One of our absolute favorite spots in town, we’re so lucky to have this in our community!“

“Though I have not been to the Cafe in person, the sandwich I had from there was one of the best I have ever eaten! Can't wait to go in person. 5 stars.😋“

“The cappuccino and croissants are amazing. Very friendly staff who seem to always aim to please. Very quick and efficient service with a smile. Nice local cafe with a few bar stools to relax with your morning cuppa.“

“Tried several Tatte and this one is special. Food is always perfect and if ever someone has taken my online order, the managers always assist and get is asap. Store is super clean and service is always special. I do like the small talk. Mary, Francesca Gm, Roselyn, Hector always know my order and drinks. Totally worth the daily trip.“

“With so few bubble tea hangout spots outside of Boston, Teamoji is one of the few places I genuinely recommend. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff. I was pleasantly surprised by how extensive the menu was, which made choosing a drink a challenge in the best way. The shop was clean, inviting, and featured a cute seating area that's perfect for hanging out. The drink I ordered met my expectations perfectly, with the right balance of sweetness, flavor, and texture. I'm glad I decided to give Teamoji a try, and I'll definitely be coming back. Oh...can't forget how easy finding parking was, there's plenty!!“

“,Tatte Bakery & Cafe in Boston is absolute perfection. The coffee is exceptionally rich and delicious. I highly recommend ordering the shaksuka served with their homemade bread, and the desserts are simply extraordinary.

“Great coffee. Delightful owners“

“Had a wonderful time, especially thanks to the tour guide(s) at 4 pm. The main leader, “Sarah,” definitely made the experience worthwhile. There was a giant group of young kids that weren’t paying much attention (as young kids do-not a complaint) yet we were able to learn and enjoy the amazing museum and experiences nonetheless. They were very accommodating, humorous, and well equipped to handle large groups of people while keeping their attention. We liked the experience and would go back.“

“I visited this shop for the first time today, and the atmosphere was both cozy and tidy! The staff were incredibly friendly. The owner, in particular, was exceptionally helpful—he gave me all the pens in the shop for free, helping me solve a major work problem! He said he didn't need any thanks from me! I was truly deeply moved.“

“Amazing as always!! Staff and service wonderful.“

“I have learned that the founders of this place are all from IT and wanted to provide nice vocational opportunities for their autistic son and the neighborhood. The service was great, the food was delicious, and the place is worth supporting as a Neighborhood institution. Try the veggie wrap.

Good vegetarian choices and clearly labeled vegan options.

They’re a small staff, so food tends to come out a bit slow but everything you bite into winds up surprisingly tasty!“

“This place has the best coffee in town. Their breakfast sandwiches are to die for. Lunch menu is just as good. Cookies, scones and muffins are all delicious. The owners Peter and Siri bend over backwards to please their customers. The register and serving crew Lisa and Isabel are great.“

“The Honey Hybrid coffee is DELICIOUS!!“

“The food is so delicious. My kids loved the food. My husband I loved it too. The english muffin with sausage and bacon were amazing. Yogurt parfait with fruits was the best I ever tasted. Service is amazing. Place is small but doesnt matter, the heart is there. I highly recommend this place. Very good prices.“

“Best bakery and cafe around!“

“Loved eating breakfast here“

“Nice cocktails and next to Mike’s Pastry“

“We were on a trip and found this Cafe during our walk through the historic places in Boston. It offers delicious pastries, various breakfast sandwiches and lots of options for coffee and tea. Their orange juice is spectacular and the closest one to a real orange juice I've ever had. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The dining area is a little small for the number of the customers but there are also chairs and tables outside. The Croissant breakfast sandwich and the Honey Halva Latte we had were so delicious. Thank you Tatte.“

“amazing pastries!! nice people and very good coffee. I will be back!“

“Awesome food and the staff is friendly. Also the hometown Cafe atmosphere is great.“

“Came in for lunch and was delighted by the tofu puff bento box. The sauce was flavorful while the vegetable sides offered a lovely contrast. I was also a big fan of the tea egg. I’ll come back to try the tea and smoothies and enjoy the cute space.“

“Thank you for GREAT customer service and making me feel welcome. The cafe is immaculate and the food and drink was delicious! My first Iced Matcha!!! Well worth the visit from SW France 🇺🇸🇫🇷 Great merchandise and appreciated the WiFi....Á bientôt!“
