50 Best Cafes near Reading

“Best croissants and berliners in Massachusetts.“

“Wicked good coffee - Reading and Tewksbury.“

“I started going here in 2020 and slowly became obsessed. Best bakery and cafe in Somerville. The vibes of the staff are phenomenal but additionally the food and tea are to die for. I always get the London fog with vanilla and the vegan egg cheddar sandwich. Don’t forget to try to banana tajin muffin!!“

“We had a small get together at Bits and bites cafe.. The staff was so courteous and knowledgeable.. breakfast and sweet treats were top notch. Please consider Bits and Bites for your next cafe, you won’t be disappointed!“

“extremely fresh breakfast sandwich we just had so good and excellent baklava too very impressed“

“I love Tilde - the coffee, wine and food is consistently great!
I've also come to participate in knit club and everyone is always a sweetie pie.

The wine selection has a great variety and the coffees are never too sweet even with a little added rose or vanilla.

Today I committed a faux pas because I became that dog owner who brings their pup into the shop. The person behind the counter was so gracious about letting me know that they can't allow dogs due to that food is prepared there and then another person helped by bringing my drink outside to me.

So all in all, this is a place to come to feel nice and tasty!“

“After living nearby for more than a year, I finally visited Bikeeny Caffe this week. The pastries were delightful! My favorites were the Italian cheese blend pastry and the honey pecan pastry in the photo I’ve included. The employees were cheerful and kind. I plan to return at least once every week!“

“love this place best croissant ever feel like I m in 🇫🇷“

“Not much more to say that OUTSTANDING!! he food is delicious, abundant, varied, signature to them in tastes and styles, affordable, local, fresh - and served/prepared by an amazing crew!! It's a tiny place, which you would think would discourage many. But not here!! That should tell you something. Not only is there a line out the door for 'to-go' ordering, but people filing in and out who ordered ahead - not to mention those ]like myself] willing to wait - cramped - patiently awaiting a seat to open in order to dine in. Ya, to some it might seem more hassle than the hype. But I say the hassle is because the hype is true!! Anything worth having is worthy a bit of struggle to get it. JAC's is an excellent example of that! Thank you to the entire crew for all you do, your hard work and dedication to quality shines through!“

“Very friendly and cheerful staff. Great coffee and sandwiches.“

“The staff was very pleasant and assertive..the food was great and worth every penny...i would definately come back..i already shared a post on my fb page too!“

“Grande Burrito, X-Tudo, chicken stucks, Coxhinas“

“Awesome food and the staff is friendly. Also the hometown Cafe atmosphere is great.“

“smooth latte, nice to have a decaffeinated lattee.“

“One of our absolute favorite spots in town, we’re so lucky to have this in our community!“

“Ola Cafe has been a favorite stop since moving into the neighborhood a few years ago- it is the perfect place for a quick coffee and snack. The staff are next to none- are always warm, welcoming and ready to give my dog lots of love and attention. My all time favorite thing there is their orange juice- it is truly the best OJ I have had- they squeeze it by hand in front of you and despite the effort it takes to prepare- they always do it with a smile.“

“Adorable little café with indoor and outdoor seating behind the café. There is a limited amount of parking out front and they close around 6:30 so the parking ends around the time that they close. The store is fully accessible, they have a wide variety of looseleaf tea as well as Stash bagged tea. I got the Genmai cha.

I did one of the Bento boxes with pulled pork, tea eggs, edamame, rice, and veggies. It is absolutely delicious but definitely a little pricey. It was $19 for my tea and my food. But I do love the cafe and the people are super kind.

There is also a lot of knitting work that is for sale. Somebody there makes scarves and hats and such.

I really appreciate that they have notes all over the store and on the front door and on there to go bags reminding customers that they are going to be closed from August 26 until September 9. I really appreciate it when a business does right by their customers and make sure that they know That the place is open or closed. Thank you!

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs“

“I have been enjoying this cafe for a few years now and am still always happy with the truly friendly service along with some of the best sandwichs ever. This is comparing to other great delis around the city. Their salami, capocollo, and provolone with everything on it, on a freshly baked and grilled toasted baguette has to be honestly in my top 3 sandwiches I have ever had in my life.“

“Love this cozy spot! The location is ideal either to sit in, outside, or take your goodies for a walk down to the pond. They have a large variety of meals as well as breakfast and bakery items. I love that they sell day old baked goods when they have them as well. They also have a huge variety of milk types to add to your coffee, and hot sauces for food at the 'coffee/creamer station'. They have events here too!“

“Cute place. We arrived on the later side which annoyed the waitstaff.... I promised we'd leave by closing time which was 2:00. We arrived around 1:30. Overall the food was good. A little annoying because we had to ask for more than 2 items, but not a bad place. We ll try again .“

“today was the first time eating there, excellent service, the best home fries I have had so far.“

“great food friendly atmosphere anall the staff are top notch“

“The vibes are immaculate. The christmas decor really put me into the christmas spirit (lol), and the music really gave the cafe a chill mood. The interior seating was nice, and the exterior seating has a really beautiful view of the water. Very nice, quaint cafe.“

“There is a fabulous vibe in the space. Yummy egg scramble and avocado toast. Smooth cold brew coffee.“

“Located in an Executive Office complex, Starburst Cafe is a business friendly modern cafe where omelettes and other heated breakfasts are made to order by a chef. After that it's self serve. They DO NOT take cash but they DO take credit cards and mobile payments.“

“We knew we wanted Magic Bites to cater our family event and we were so pleased that we did! Atilla and Elif were helpful and patient planning the menu and everything was top notch delicious. They knew we had some allergies in the family and they made an extra effort to create large labels with all ingredients. I highly recommend them!!“

“I know it wasn’t your normal birthday cake but wanted to let you know we loved it 🥰. From ordering the cake, to pick up, this place is amazing. Thank you for working your magic on my special request of lemon & coconut. 🍋🥥“

“Came here on a Saturday morning to do some writing and enjoy a hot cup of coffee and breakfast. I ordered a latte and a Turkey Sausage Avocado breakfast burrito. The service was super pleasant across the board, and the location is staffed to help take care of orders, keep things clean, and deliver food to customers.

My burrito was massive and honestly quite tasty, filled with hot ingredients and had me filled up! The latte was good but nothing too special.

Overall this place seems really well managed, very friendly, and offers plenty of seating and space.“

“Delicious pastries! I was staying in a hotel nearby and stumbled on this place. The staff was so kind and gave us a few samples to try. I live across the country and keep thinking of this place. Can’t wait to visit again.“

“Enjoyed my apple cider during rainy evening tonight. Friendly and accommodating staff!“

“Who doesn’t love a good old fashioned cafe-bookstore combo? It’s awesome enough that we’ve got a bookstore back in Belmont Center, and the cafe really sweetens the deal. (Also the bear on the menu is bomb!)“

“!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“The homiest meal in Cambridge. Every crepe and filling are freshly prepared with delicious ingredients and served by a friendly staff. Don't come here if you are in a rush, they give extra care to each crepe prepared and that means it takes a little extra time.“

“I walked in last Sunday nice man quickly came to ask what I’d like. I ordered the ham egg and cheese on an onion bagel with an iced coffee & my god was it sooo good ?? i would recommend this place to all- definitely getting ready to go there now ?“

“The best coffee shop and more in Chelsea! Great atmosphere and great authentic Mexican cuisine and breads/desserts. I love that it is family owned and operated, couldn’t be a nicer group in Chelsea.“

“This place has the best coffee in town. Their breakfast sandwiches are to die for. Lunch menu is just as good. Cookies, scones and muffins are all delicious. The owners Peter and Siri bend over backwards to please their customers. The register and serving crew Lisa and Isabel are great.“

“I loved every single bite! I used to frequent “Andros” and was so bummed when it closed. I’m so glad “My Other Kitchen” is here—especially with the same salad dressing which is amazing on its own! I plan to eat my way through their menu—everything looks scrumptious! ❤️“

“Their customer service, bagels, coffee, muffins… all top notch!! Will be back soon!!“

“Stopped in today around 2 for brunch. Everything was delicious! We had the lemonade and the pineapple mimosas, and a berry smoothie to start. Then two of us had the caramel banana French toast, and one had the Bennies. We will definitely be back!“

“La Qchara is such a gem in the area. The food is flavorful, reasonably priced and always hits the spot. I appreciate that they have a variety of breakfast options from pastries to chia pudding to larger dishes like chilaquiles. The tortas are a perfect lunch/dinner option.

This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion.“

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

“I went to revival for the first time to grab something small for late breakfast.
the inside is so adorable and pretty, the staff were all so kind and cheerful, and there was little to no wait getting my order. Overall just such a nice place! Definitely recommend!“

“Thank you so much to Twist Bakery for their amazing generosity! A parent from our school had contacted them in regards to purchasing cookies for an event we have at the school for several children who have allergies. Twist and their staff were so pleasant to deal with and more than generous in what they did for us. All the littles were so excited that there was an option for cookies at the event for them that was not only safe, it was extremely yummy! Thank you again Twist for making our school kids day and putting parents minds at ease. We will surely be spreading the word about you!“

“Great food and excellent service at this cute hole-in-the-wall cafe inside the Armory. Diverse breakfast, brunch, and lunch menu with very reasonable prices, tons of seating, great art displayed all around the dining area, and a cool stage for live music.“

“I love tatte, the coffee/espresso is very good. Their pastries are delicious and fresh. I’ve given 5 stars because my review should not in any way affect the business itself.

I do have to preface, I work in the service industry, I understand that hiring a training staff is difficult and I’m always patient while people are learning and never short or irritated when a mistake is made. I come here a lot despite the mistakes that happen often. It not the end of the world and it happens, No biggie, but If you point out the mistake made to the (assuming) manager (lady with glasses) you will be met with passive aggression and rudeness.

I pointed out that a drink was missed despite ordering it and she walks up to me and says “here’s your receipt” very snarky and rude and storms off all angry. There it said only “1 cold brew”. I’m very apologetic and say to the lovely person making the coffee (bc the “manager” stormed off) “I’m very sorry but there must have been a miscommunication and I did order two of the cold brew.” At no point did the manager return to ask if I would still like said item, she just brushed me off as if there was absolutely no possible way her employee made a mistake. I walk out after that only to realize they forgot my biscuit. (Which I paid for and was on the receipt she so smugly passed to me and ran away). I had to go back and get.

Turns out, her staff does make mistakes contrary to her dismissive belief. Other reviews on here have echoed the same issues with this specific manager. (Rude, short, dismissive). I hope she has a better day :)“
