50 Best Coffee Shops near Newton Upper Falls

“Well, the visit wasn’t seller there’s a coffee is good. This guy thought you knew everything but screwed up every coffee for every person around me. I had to walk him through how to make my coffee. His name is Fred and definitely needed help. The manager made sure to let everybody know that she was changing the trash and was useless. Liam was awesome as always and the coffee is good which is why I go back.“

“Maybe it is just me, but kiosk only ordering options, and app only coupons are getting out of hand. Though the staff was helpful once they were able to assist, waited 20 minutes for her. Granted it appears she was the only person holding down the fort. Kudos to her for managing the lobby and the drive thru. Also loved these pictures on the wall“

“Went for the first time and everything was great!!“

“A great gem my daughter and I went to while she was visiting from California . The monkey bread muffin definitely a treat along with the peanut butter explosion coffee Thank you for your kindness“

“The Honey Hybrid coffee is DELICIOUS!!“

“Great coffee. Delightful owners“

“Fig is the best! Their takeout window basically got me through the pandemic, and I feel very lucky that this is my local. As a certified scone-hater, their blueberry scone is the best I've ever had. I recommend their lattes, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches (the cheddar cheese is SHARP), and chia pudding. Their lunch sandwiches are also great. 10/10 for staff, vibes, food, and coffee.“

“Got recommended a flat white after drinking cappuccinos for the last 5 years, and haven’t gone back - thank you, knowledgeable baristas :) Best local coffee shop there is.“

“Fantastic breakfast! Best in Boston hands down.“

“We ate at bom dough when we visited my grandson who lives on Cambridge Street . Food was delicious and unique. Would love to send him a gift card , and would also eat there again if we visit him.“

“Such a cute spot in the cutest neighborhood! I just moved to Bay Village and have been dying to try this place. It was very packed on a beautiful Sunday morning, so my boyfriend and I decided to place an online order and walk around until it was ready. It took about 30 mins in total. We got the breakfast burrito with chorizo and the Baller breakfast sandwich and split. Both were delicious! The tortilla was awesome as was the homemade English muffin. You can really tell everything was made with high quality ingredients and love. I will absolutely be back to try more of their offerings!“

“Great food and coffee and tea! Friendly staff! Beautiful atmosphere with lots of light and pleasing design.“

“Best cortado that I have had in Boston for sure. Such a great coffee shop. Love the cleanliness and decoration as well.“

“Glazed Bytes Coffee is selling itself short by being tucked inside a tiny, painfully forgettable mall in Brookline. The coffee itself? Not forgettable at all.

We ordered two Cloud Foam Lattes (I think that was the name), and that foam was ridiculous in the best way possible. It sits somewhere between an absurdly fluffy marshmallow and canned whipped cream, except smoother, creamier, and somehow lighter at the same time. I genuinely have no idea how they made foam feel “luxurious”, but there we are.

The coffee underneath actually held its own too. Strong flavour, unique profile, not just another Instagram café trying to survive off aesthetics and oat milk. Properly good coffee.

Honestly, the mall needs them more than they need the mall. Places like this drive foot traffic way harder than another random clothing shop nobody remembers walking into. More food spots. More cafés. More reasons for people to actually stay there.

Really good spot. Hidden gem energy.“

“I visited this shop for the first time today, and the atmosphere was both cozy and tidy! The staff were incredibly friendly. The owner, in particular, was exceptionally helpful—he gave me all the pens in the shop for free, helping me solve a major work problem! He said he didn't need any thanks from me! I was truly deeply moved.“

“Had an hour to burn and found this local brewery.
1. Variety of beers. The pumpkin beer was a win!
2. Nice place to chill out - alone or with friends.
3. Cafe operates separately inside the brewery. Food is good and hand held.
4. Patio seating, too.
Support your local brewer!“

“I love you so much Phinista. I’m so lucky to work close by. You are my Friday morning treat I look forward to that pushes me through the week. My favorite item is the Saigon breakfast bahn mi. Every drink I’ve tried has been stellar too but I especially like the ube coffee and coco cloud ube. There’s nothing like a slow early morning to sit in their cozy cafe too“

“Solid ground cafe has one of the best breakfast sandwiches I have ever had. My son has frequent inpatient stays at Childrens. This is the perfect quick walk to get a great breakfast and coffee.“

“My favorite part of Cicada is how it suddenly feels you are so far away from Cambridge. The combination of being so kindly met by the staff and to have food that is so exquisitely executed creates a joyful atmosphere where our group of 3 had an incredible experience. Will always come back!“

“Staff are nice and have good service“

“The best bakery I’ve tried yet! I was very excited to try Michette while in town this weekend, but was absolutely blown away by the pastries I tried. My partner and I tried several croissants, cookies, and buns. Every single one was fresh, flaky, buttery, and packed with unique flavor combinations I’ve never had before. We only waited about 5 minutes to order, but I would wait in the longest line to be able to have these pastries again. The service, taste, and quality are unbeatable. I’ll never stop talking about you Michette.“

“This place is the absolute best. I come here weekly with friends and could talk about why I love it all day. Highly, highly recommend. Some highlights:
-incredibly friendly staff who make you feel comfortable and at home
-delicious food and beverages, with fun monthly/seasonal specials and excellent vegan friendly options
-impeccable cozy vibes. Just perfect for a relaxing morning
-often bring other friends and visitors here, who all love it too“

“My husband and I had the cornbread, raspberry currant muffin, cold brew flight, carnitas taco, elote taco, and avocado tostado. All of it was amazing and affordable!!“

“Deliciousness!!! You made my day! 😁🌯“

“I live in Bar Harbor, Maine, and one of my guests staying with us offered me a homemade bagel from this establishment. It's one of the best poppy seed bagels I've had in a long time, and the homemade chive cream cheese pairs so perfectly with the smoked salmon. It made my day eating this bagel after work. I love lox. It's one of the sweetest gifts a guest has ever given me. 💕 When I travel the coast looking at lighthouses this winter, this bagel shop will definitely be on my places to stop. Alan is a great supporter and saleman! I'm happy to have met him and have him as one of my guests. Great memory, I'll keep with me. Thanks Alan 😊😊“

“10/10 experience! Great coffee and breakfast. Love the vibe of the atmosphere!“

“Delicious food and great coffee drinks! Excellent service from everyone and a super cute space —- highly recommend!“

“amazing pastries!! nice people and very good coffee. I will be back!“

“Great coffee & some of the best breakfast sandwiches in all of Boston“

“I loved hanging out there.“

“I had a wonderful time here. The atmosphere was calm and cozy, and it was nice and cool inside, making it the perfect place to relax. The staff members were also incredibly friendly. I was so touched that they served a piece of Turkish delight with my Turkish coffee—what a thoughtful touch! Thank you for such a great experience!“

“Great coffee, and their seasonal drinks are always creative and delicious. I've been going here for years, it's one of the best around.

This location was excellent under its 2023 era management. Service has slipped since then, with less care from the baristas taking orders and making drinks, but it's still a great cafe overall.

Bonus points: No upcharge for non-dairy milk.
No penalty for being lactose intolerant or plant-based, which is how it should be everywhere.“

“There is a reason there is a line at this place. Their lattes / matcha are wonderful. Strawberry Matcha with real strawberries. Quality ingredients, made to perfect proportions for a great beverages. Will update when I try their baked goods.“

“We got to our hotel (Marriot Copley) around 10:30am. Jaho was right next door. So we thought “why not”. So glad we did. Thankful we did!!!! I had the salmon bagel (lox). Never, have I ever had a bagel that good. It was so amazing. My husband had a turkey sandwich. Which, we LOVED. We are going back before we leave Boston! This place is a Gem!!!“

“We ordered a vegan half sheet almond cake from Luna’s—it was TERRIFIC. It joined several other cakes at a family gathering, and everyone loved it.

I found it easy to communicate with the bakery manager, and that she had some terrific ideas for flavors. I would absolutely order from them again. Pickup was super easy, too!“

“Highly recommend stopping by Wicked Cafe in Somerville! Coffee ☕️, tea 🫖 , food 🍲 and hospitality are top notch! Mike was fantastic! 🤩👍🏽“

“Cake order review only: easy to inquire about a cake online. Easy payment once we discussed the vision of the cake. And easy pickup. BEAUTIFUL CAKE. The cake was $90 for a heart shaped 2 layer cake with vintage piping, vegan vanilla with vegan vanilla buttercream and strawberry jam filling. I didn’t get the filling but was refunded immediately and the person handling the situation was so nice. I had asked why the darker icing tasted to chemically and they informed that the more they use the dye the more it tastes like it. So I would just skip that completely. Get the lighter frostings. Because like I said these are beautiful cakes and the cake itself is a good texture and flavor as a vegan cake.“

“Really cute coffee shop.

The decor inside is super inviting- I love the touch of real glasses and jugs of water on the tables.

It feels like a great place to study and/or just hang out.

The coffee was good and decently priced. Added benefit of having the open courtyard right in front.“

“Just had a great experience at the check out counter with a man that was 100% about customer service. I could just tell he was totally invested in his job and when they didn’t have the variation of coffee I wanted, I still wanted to give the man a tip, but he surprised me further by covering my drink for free because they couldn’t quite make what I wanted. Incredible, we need more people like this guy and the team at Central Perk.“

“Great neighborhood coffee shop. Their flavors are abundant. Their sandwiches are delicious. I haven’t tried their blended drinks but have heard positive reviews from neighbors.“

“enjoyed a nice cappuccino“

“Amazing Staff, amazing food !!! If You’re in Harvard Sq. don’t miss out!“

“Brought my mom to Blank Street for the first time at this location and she said “this is the best coffee I’ve ever had”. The baristas here were so sweet, so fast with my order, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! RB and Susie helped us out today and they need raises IMMEDIATELY“

“Great close by coffee shop. Loved it.“

“This has amazing hot chocolate. Worth trekking too on an 80 degree humid day. The hot chocolate is creamy, smooth, rich, and sweet. The gentlemen who made mine was very kind and friendly, possibly the owner? A few more people behind me ended up asking for hot chocolate as well. I highly recommend this place, which also has a great food selection as well!

“Whoever bakes their scones has a gift!“

“Delicious fresh authentic Liège waffles! Service was friendly and fast , highly recommended !!“

“The Sipping Room by Breeze is a small, intimate cafe in Boston that feels like a genuine find rather than another coffee shop filling a corner. The space is minimalist and calm with enough personality to make it comfortable for a longer stay.

The dalgona coffee is one of the standout orders and delivers the creamy, slightly bitter contrast that makes the format work when it is done well. With oat milk it is particularly good, smoothing out the richness without losing the depth of the coffee underneath. The matcha is another high point, aromatic and grassy in a way that reflects quality sourcing, and notably not overly sweet. The hojicha with hojicha foam is worth ordering if it is on rotation during your visit, layered and smooth in a way that makes it an easy recommendation for anyone who leans toward roasted, nutty flavors.

Prices across the menu are genuinely affordable for the quality. The loose leaf teas can be rebrewed multiple times, which adds real value to the experience for anyone who wants to settle in for a while. For a handcrafted drink in a space that feels like it was built for people who actually care about what they are drinking, The Sipping Room earns a spot on the short list.“

“Had my 1st time order of their Hawaiian Grilled Cheese; YUMS! I was taken back from their use of BBQ sauce, makes the sandwich super sweet, but honestly, I'd order it again!“

“Great vibe - I read about the bank part but was really impressed by the patio that wasn’t just chairs and tables pushed to the curb. I don’t recommend the strawberry vanilla latte at all, it was bitter and not terribly reminiscent of either flavor, but I trust that their more classic beverages are serviceable.“
