Exceptional! Warm service and great drinks. Try the Hojicha Latte. It’s like a fall version of a matcha latte

I always like going to this place. I just want a simple cup of coffee and that's exactly what I get from this place. Staff is kind and patient while I'm paralyzed by choice.

Great local coffee shop. Love to see an espresso tonic on the menu. WiFi was strong for taking a video call.

My favorite drip coffee around - tastes so good.

Fantastic coffee, amazing pastries. Just watch out for the oversized strollers (LOL), it's a place loved and frequented by runners and their babies

Fantastic little oasis where the coffee and treats are superb, and the atmosphere is collegial. Simon is a true gem of a human being and Cambridge is lucky to have him.

I've tried coffee all over this area and keep coming back here. They seem to really be the only ones doing it right, small space cozy vibes.

Simon's is a great neighborhood Cafe with very good drip coffee and good pastries. The indoor space is fairly tight and the outside terrace is minimalistic. Nonetheless, it is a very popular hangout for poets, writers, and other intellectual people from all parts of the world.

Delicious coffee and food. I usually order an iced matcha, which is always delicious, but the coffee is also always really good. The blueberry scones are to die for!

But the best thing about this place has to be the service. The team at Simon's is welcoming and friendly, and always go above and beyond for their customers, no matter if there's one person in there or a line out the door. Will definitely be going back, and would recommend to anyone looking for a nice breakfast in Cambridge.

Great little coffee shop at walking distance from Harvard. Coffee & hot cocoa are good, and the sandwiches are also quite great! Very generous portions.

Cafe is kinda cute, neighborhood vibe. Coffee is good. Prices are unreal, more expensive that the fanciest of nyc coffee shops. Absolutely avoid if you’re hoping to do work on your laptop, internet is intermittent at best.

It's a nice spot with friendly staff but the prices are extortionate. Got an iced pumpkin latte with oat milk and it was literally $10. I'm used to paying upwards of $6-7, but the latte was pretty average I've gotta say. I wish I could come back regularly because I'll always support local shops but there's no way I can afford to spend $10 on a latte with any regularity. It's kind of mind-boggling to be honest.
