Love the place and love the staff but the wifi has never worked when I've been here...bummer to pay $6.50 for a cold brew and then be told there's no functional wifi at a cafe.
The food is passable but extremely overpriced. The coffee is solid, but that's the only positive I can say. The manager is always hovering, and is incredibly rude if you ever interact with him. The employee turnover is very high, so my guess is he also does not treat his employees well either. In this day and age, when possible, I try not to support businesses whose leadership is overtly mean and disrespectful.

The music is obnoxiously loud and thumping disco nightclub.

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.
