HI-Rise Bread Company is a West Cambridge Cafe with an artisanal charm. The cafe offers a variety of breakfast sandwiches and pastries, with a dedicated section for baking fresh bread. The atmosphere is rustic yet refined. The sandwiches like the Hungry Pickle and Luke Rocks the Free World are crispy and satisfying. The pastries, such as the Orange Coconut and Maple Pecan Scones, are moist, buttery, and well-crafted. Prices can be high, but ordering online provides price transparency. While the cafe no longer offers gluten-free options, it remains a good spot to enjoy coffee with friends. Be prepared for a wait for the sandwiches, but the quality makes it worth the patience. The Thai iced tea is very aromatic and perfectly sweet, a unique and delicious drink. The ham, butter, and Swiss lunchie is delicious, with bread that has a slight crisp on the outside and is wonderfully chewy. The cookies are great, and the lemon cake is phenomenal. The ginger snaps are delicious. The staff were super informative and helpful.
