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.

Hands down the best lattes in Cambridge served by the friendliest staff. Simon is so kind and the amazing vibes in the coffee shop reflect his kindness. It’s a neighborhood gem where locals gather, talk and support one another and their community. I wrote half my dissertation in this coffee shop and will remain a loyal customer for years to come. These days we don’t feel like our weekend has started until the whole family heads to Simon’s for a morning treat and some caffeine to fuel the rest of the weekend’s adventure.

Kid-friendliness: The staff is incredibly kind to our daughter. She loves visiting Simon’s as much as her parents do.

Simon's Coffee Shop delivers a cozy atmosphere and excellent coffee. With its friendly staff, inviting decor, and a variety of pastries and light bites, it’s a perfect spot for a relaxed coffee break or catching up with friends. The quality of their brews and the warm ambiance make it a local favorite.

Great find. Peaceful, comforting vibe. Great staff. Restroom for customers. Tables. Had a delicious maple scone and iced Americano.

Good coffee, but I don’t like that they make you take a to-go cup and generate paper waste if you order a coffee an hour before they close. Not my favorite policy.
