Great breakfast choices and espresso drinks. Good spot for interviews and business meetings if my survey of the clientele over several days is any indication.

The atmosphere is nice enough (hence the second star) but the espresso was cold and very acidic, and the barista extremely rude. Not recommended.

Really delicious sandwiches! A bit pricey but in my opinion worth it. Ingredients tasted really fresh and sandwiches were full of flavor. We stopped by around noon on a Wednesday and ordered the Magazine (roast beef sandwich) and the Brattle (salmon, tomato, cucumbers sandwich) and both were really really good. Would definitely get the Brattle again. Our cappuccino and sandwiches came out really fast (less than 5 minutes).

Darwin never disappoints. Sandwiches are full of fresh ingredients, large portion size and filling. If you have room, add a latte or fresh tea with your order.

Best breakfast joint in Cambridge finally…. Lots of Sandwich choices made fresh…Vegetarians options too and the must try Spicy Chai Latte (perfect tea matching my Indian taste)… My favourite place

Very good vibes . Coffee is really good. Avocado toast with arugula was amazing but was a small portion sizes.

I met up with a co-worker here, just to grab some coffee. The coffee was pretty standard, but the space itself was great and had a relaxing vibe. There was tons of seating and the space felt very open. It's a great spot just to do some work for a few hours or meet up with a friend. I recommend!

Large coffee shop with lots of seating. It was easy to work here for the morning.Great menu of breakfast sandwiches and lots of pastries too. The drinks were well made and refreshing.

I really like the sandwiches and the pastries here. I prefer to come on weekends because they serve the breakfast sandwiches (which are my favorite) later into the day. Be warned though that the later you come, the more of the bread options will have run out for the day. The service is always very friendly although the food is often a bit slow (they're typically quite busy so can't really fault them there). The food is definitely a bit expensive for what it is, but the atmosphere is really lovely, so I do enjoy coming here to eat and study or catch up with a friend.

I frequently go for lunch and I'm generally a fan of their sandwiches. They've always been well made, tasty, and filling, if a bit pricey.I would definitely recommend ordering ahead! The one time I ordered in person I regretted it - the wait took up my whole lunch break.

My absolute favorite coffee shop in the world. Their honey lavender oatmilk cold brew is hands down the best drink. I think mint mojito from philz is the only competitor in my mind. Must get! I love how low key the cafe is :)

Great breakfast spot in Cambridge. Excellent coffee and inventive and filling sandwiches. We shared a Berkelee; lox fried egg, tomatoe and red onion with a nice spicy sauce on a hearty dark bread. Always get breakfast here when in Cambridge,.

Really really great coffee. Ok scones. Pretty good sandwiches. If you have limited time for a break or lunch, keep walking. You'll be here a while as they catch up.
