Finally found myself in the neighborhood and had to stop by. Their winter seasonal drink menu all sounded great but I settled on an iced peppermint white mocha matcha, which was amazing. All the flavors felt balanced and it was the right amount of sweetness.

The space is bright and colorful, with plenty of seating in the main area as well as a separate room through a glass door. There are also clean bathrooms available.

I would definitely come back to try out more of the seasonal menu!

Wow, what a stellar cafe. Feelings almost fairytale-esque! The creative seasonal drinks, insanely fresh and flavor-packed sandwiches, and the kindness of the staff makes it a place to easily empty your bank account on. Highly recommend.

Burrito was good! Candy bar latte was bomb. Small space though and the wait took a while on a weekend morning

The BEST specialty lattes. Nut free facility. Staff is so so nice. Lines can be long on weekends but they move fast!

The place was very busy, and my less-ice coconut milk latte came out full of ice which I asked less ice. They apologized and fixed it by removing some ice and adding regular milk. They didn’t really care about what kind of milk I asked.. very unprofessional, Nice staff yes but unprofessional! the drink didn’t taste quite the same afterward.

My sister & I came here on a Saturday AM. parking on the street was easy but there was a line out the door. We waited maybe 20-25 minutes and ordered two lattes and two pastries. The Scorpio latte (their current horoscope) special was incredible and I think about it everyday. The birthday cake latte really needed a cold foam and it would’ve been delish. The cinnamon bun was insanely good, and I didn’t even get it warmed up! Highly recommend.

Actually obsessed with this coffee shop. The owner Rachel is actually the best and creates and amazing atmosphere. The cold foams are out of this world along with the best breakfast sandwhich in south boston. Everything is curated actually how it should be and I love all the seasonal drinks! Could not recommend this place enough!!

Decent coffee and a fun vibe! Be prepared to wait on the weekends and understand they are a small staff trying to meet a huge demand!

I recommend going early!

I moved from NYC to Boston 4 years ago and was convinced Boston didn't have quality coffee shops with amazing vibes. That is until I went to Cannonball Cafe. Food is DELICIOUS, stellar Gracenote coffee with the owner's seasonal menu of over 20 cold foam flavors for iced drinks, high quality baked goods (I believe made fresh by the owner in house), and a beautiful cafe. It gave me Dominque Ansel vibes but a bit warmer and welcoming. The service was excellent and I will be going back on the regular!

Such a great little coffee shop and a must stop if you’re in the area. The coffee was great and the sandwiches delicious. Excited to go back to try more (like the homemade pop tarts)

Would have given a 5 - star if it wasn’t for the customer service from Rachel. If you have question about the menu and anything for that matter might not be a good idea to ask her. She comes off as sweet but also can be condescending and makes you feel a little dumb for asking a question based on her response. 😖 Food is great 😊 and the coffee is DELICIOUS! The other employees are super sweet and approachable ! The atmosphere of the coffee shop is super cuteee. They allow dogs, however, the dogs sit on the couch sooo just be aware of that. A little grossed out about that. I truly loved the vibes of the place.
