Stopped by for an espresso and some breakfast one rainy morning. I got their featured espresso, which was pretty good—and it came with a glass of sparkling water, which was nice. The biscuits sandwich was pretty good too, even if the slice of cheese it came with was almost comically thin. Everyone working their was really nice, though for how many people were behind the counter, it took a while to get my coffee. But that's okay, the vibs are chill, there's lots of space inside and bathrooms too.

Important stuff: no Wi-Fi, no laptop policy on weekends (weekdays OK), limited electrical outlets available.I buy Broadsheet beans pretty often but never had the chance to check out their physical storefront/cafe until recently. It's nice! I would come back but parking is hard to find.I only tried their iced coffee, but I thought it was absurdly good. The noise level is not too bad, and I couldn't really hear any music being played. I pretty much heard bits and pieces of conversations from other customers, and I feel like that is the best kind of background noise, especially as I am the type to tune into the music a little too well. So, TLDR it is a good space to work when the business allows it.Thanks for producing such great coffee!

My younger brother, who lives in Paris, likes this cafe, so he often buys coffee in Cambridge and receives recommendations for coffee beans. We visited together and I realized why they come all the way here! I had a mocha latte, and it was the most delicious mocha latte I've ever had - and the bread was really delicious too. In fact, more than anything, it was the friendliest restaurant I've ever been to in all of Boston and Cambridge. It was a healing day thanks to the staff with such pretty smiles. Thank you??

People with laptops take the number of seats more than they need and one person occupies the whole table for long hours. The water tastes unpleasant and you can smell the same unpleasant odor in the cafe, specially the back space. Not sure it’s the smell of their water pipes or the restrooms :/ I wouldn’t recommend going there if you’re not one of the laptop-carrying people.

Really solid neighborhood coffee place. Been buying my beans from them consistently for the past 4 years and have rarely been disappointed by the roasts. Place can get hectic during the weekends but the service is pretty fast and you won’t be standing for a long time. The pastries are mid but you don’t generally come to a coffee roaster for pastries.
Their coffee is very acidic for my taste. I also don't know why they call a normal single espresso a double. It just doesn't compute.

A popular cafe with solid coffee and pastry options.I've been coming to Broadsheet Coffee over the past few weekends to grab some quick coffee and pastries. The place is extremely popular among the locals, and on every visit, it was quite impossible to find an empty seat.From their pastry selections, I tried the almond croissant and the apple turnover. While filled with creamy almond paste, the croissant felt somewhat dense and fell short due to its slightly dry texture. However, the apple turnover was great, hitting all the right notes of flaky pastry and sweet apple filling.One thing to note is the waiting time. Securing a table often means a wait of over 15 minutes, so it's better suited for those looking for a quick grab-and-go. All in all, it's a solid choice for a quick coffee and pastry in the area.

Best coffee in the Boston area! We live in JP but go to Broadsheet as often as we can because nothing else in the area comes close. Friendly service, consistent quality, Oatly (!!), great decaf. I don’t know how they do it, but they also make the best matcha latte in the Boston area.The only things that we could possibly ask for in addition are heated outdoor seating because our furry child always comes with us and winter in the area sure gets cold… and hojicha latte on the menu!

Ordered a decaf cortado; sticky bun. Expresso drink was excellent; and their sticky bun was the best I’ve had. Kinda hard for a coffee cafe to differentiate itself.

The best coffee shop in all of Cambridge! I visit for an ice coffee weekly and they offer a discount if you bring your own cup. They have a fantastic working environment though no public Wi-Fi so bring a hot spot. Nestled in the neighborhood, the friendly staff makes you feel at home!
