“i have gone here more than any other cafe in the world and i have lived in somerville for less than a year. this is my go-to spot when someone asks to meet for coffee. i will continuously update with more pictures (i often forget to take them) but here are reviews of everything ive eaten/drunk at 3 little figs.

overall: their prices are truly unbeatable for the quality. the most expensive coffee drink is a $5 mocha and a $4.5 latte and everything is lower than those two. incredible. their matcha latte is $4.5, chai is $4.5, london fog $4. yeah they’re my goat for this

pastries:
- apple cider donut muffin: i think of her constantly. beautifully spiced and a little crunchy on the outside but so melt in your mouth decadent on the inside. a wonderful donut in the shape of a muffin. she’s also like $3.50 or something nuts like that
- lavender biscuit: I also think of her constantly. crispy but airy but dense and slightly salty biscuit with the most yummy lavender glaze. ginormous for $3.5
- chai muffin: really soft and airy, the espresso icing is so delicious. i do not think of her all the time but she is what she says she is. the icing makes it so cupcake like but it’s the right amount of icing. for $3 im pogging
- goat cheese scone: YUM. it’s their biscuit again, huge, and has pieces of goat cheese that is salty and delicious. a great savoury pastry option
- chocolate pistachio cookie: she is DENSE. she is buttery. she is not that chewy. if that is what you’re into. just a very good warm dense cookie with melty chocolate

food:
- ricotta toast: ive only had it sweet here (cinnamon and honey) and it kickstarted my love for ricotta. airy, creamy, perfect sweetness, incredibly flavourful yet soft sourdough. banger. she’s $6 and a gateway to other toasts
- market sandwich: ive had better but i still enjoyed it (pic) - $11 is the steepest you can get at 3 little figs and this is it! it’s good though, and don’t sleep on the fig jam
- breakfast sandwiches: yum yum yum and smell so incredibly good. for $6 for a filling beautifully and artisanal crafted breakfast sandwich? aw yea. black pepper biscuit with sausage is the goat

cons:
- seating is ez if u come early in the morning like i do. if not then yea it’s hard
- too awesome
- not gate kept. because they deserve all the love and popularity

even more pros:
- free awesome water on tap (still and sparkling)
- swag too different, service too good, food too fresh, life is awesome“

“We got the muffuletta sandwich and it was SPECTACULAR! It was a new sandwich for us…the bread was perfectly paired to the style of sandwich and fresh. The meats and cheese were delicious and the olive garnish and herbs enhanced this unique taste experience. We took the sandwich to go but the restaurant was clean and relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and fast service.“

“Delicious, Yummy, Friendly, Locally owned, with baking ingredients specialities! We’re so happy to have this warm and inviting place around the corner from where we live. #support local !!“

“Nestled in Union Square is Maprang Café. Cute and cozy Asian café with endless pastry and sweet options. I have walked by this place a few times and was thrilled to finally try it and it wasn’t super busy when I walked in. I ordered the pumpkin spice latte and it was so delicious! The perfect amount of spice and a creamy finish. The food options also looked really pretty and colorful. I will mention the price points for the food options seemed a little pricey for the size and amount, but that is just my personal opinion. It is an adorable café and overall had a nice experience during my first visit.“

“Unique, delicious pastry. Best croissants and sourdough bread. Nice people. Can sit inside or outside.“

“Union Cafe is an absolute must try! Not just for the people in the city of Lynn and surrounding cities, but for the entire north shore and beyond! I have the luxury of living rather close to this establishment, but I would not hesitate to drive for hours to revisit Union Cafe. Upon entering expect to be greeted warmly by either the owner himself or one of his very pleasant employees. Then be prepared to be bombarded with a big colorful menu with so many delicious breakfast, lunch and drink options! You will struggle to decide on what to order, but that’s ok because you can always return again and again until you try everything! I myself have not tried everything but I have loved everything that I have had so far! Union Cafe has it all, cozy, comforting and clean atmosphere, great customer service, and fantastic food and drink! Visit Union Cafe A.S.A.P you will not be disappointed!“

“I absolutely loved my experience here. my wife and I went this past weekend for the first time for our anniversary and we left having a new favorite place in Boston. The menu is completely vegan and absolutely delicious. We ordered the Chunk steak, the short ribs, the maple boneless wings, a martini and a mocha latte. everything was so good and their house made vegan ranch is the best vegan ranch I've had to date. All of the staff was incredibly warm, welcoming and attentive. The restaurant itself is small but comfortable and enjoyable. Don't let this place pass you by, it's incredible“

“Why so much plastic?
Even if you stay at "Sorelle" to eat and drink: plastic rulez!
I don't think that's "sustainable".

There ARE porcelain mugs...but you have to SPECIFICALLY request them.

The coffee itself? Fab!
The toasts and the sandwishes: too!!“

“Went there for a corporate holiday gathering. The staff were terrific and it was such a fun, interesting chance to learn, laugh and connect with colleagues. Staff are so attentive, kind and patient. A wonderful place!“

“Nice pastry’s and good location“

“A fantastic gem with excellent customer service! Get The Hero coffee, it was delicious. Everything was so good and fresh!“

“Incredibly busy for breakfast. It was hard to find a seat. Pastries were really good. I had a breakfast croissant and it was good, but ordered the egg over easy and it wasn't runny, and the croissant was over toasted for me on the ends.“

“🥲I really loved it here. If you come here you will be really inspired. So I highly recommend you to come and visit.“

“Finally, got to try This place. They had soft Opening which was not to best. The ordering process was pretty smooth . The wait was not to long. We got the infamous Sho-Gun Matcha/Vanilla Soft Serve Mix With Edible 24K gold , Maiko Special (Parfait) Hojicha/Strawberry Mix Soft Serve and Matcha Latte Float. Everything was so rich in favor. The matcha favor is probably the best that I had so far. You can taste the quality of the soft serve. It's a bit pricy but worth every penny. Definitely, need to try them out“

“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!“

“Very smooth and fresh medium roast hot coffee, which comes out right after you order it with a smile! Lots of options for breakfast - from healthy to pastries. Warm and calm atmosphere if you need a quick stop on the way to the office or from the hotel.

Prices are reasonable but slightly higher than other places, as it's downtown.“

“Though I have not been to the Cafe in person, the sandwich I had from there was one of the best I have ever eaten! Can't wait to go in person. 5 stars.😋“

“Stopped in and glad I did. Great breakfast choices and amazing coffee. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Went here for some snacks during my visit. Not a huge selection on the baked goods but good enough variety that it didn't bother me. I went here because it was a gluten free option and I need that for my allergies. I had a red velet cupcake, and a sweet heavy cake plus a fruity pebbles rice crispy treat my husband had a cookie but he didn't care for it but I loved everything I had! He did loved my fruity pebbles treat! It looks so clean in here and the service was nice the guy at the register was fast and pleasent! I highly recommend you stop here if you need gluten free treats!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“

“I went to this cafe while visiting my sister on several trips because the coffee is so good and reasonably priced. My latest visit to Boston I went again to this cafe and was blessed to be given the most beautiful latte! It made my day! I felt so honored to have such a lovely latte. The barista’s at George Howell are trained well but this Barista who made my latte is the best I have seen.“

“Cute place and yummy baked goods as well as sandwiches and salads for lunch!“

“Would give it 10 stars if I could! Fabulous place

Kid-friendliness: From their website: "Most of our game collection is geared toward people ages 10+, but we do have a small selection of kids’ games that can be brought out on request."“

“The egg sandwiches are great, and the tater tots are a guilty pleasure! The coffee is pretty good too. Seating is a little tight.

Dietary restrictions: They checked if I had a gluten allergy based on my order. I don't, but it's reassuring that they are cognizant of this.

Parking: Free on Sundays, otherwise parking on Rantoul is for pay.“

“Love it here - the staff are extremely professional and customer service oriented. It’s my go-to place to take friends when they visit from out of town.“

“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!“

“Brand new café and wine bar with dual personalities. During the day (until 3PM), it operates as a coffee shop offering classic espresso drinks, plus matcha and tea options for non-coffee drinkers. I enjoyed their lavender latte with homemade syrup.

In the evening (reopening at 5PM), it transforms into a wine bar with an unpretentious, neighborhood-friendly atmosphere.

Currently, it's a peaceful spot perfect for enjoying a drink, getting some work done, or finding refuge from the winter cold.

The skylight provides beautiful natural lighting, while high ceilings create an airy, spacious feeling.

Parking: Standard Cambridge city parking around the block. In front, paid metered street parking.“

“Nice cocktails and next to Mike’s Pastry“

“Great local place for breakfast, cold brew, smoothies, pupsicles, or a light lunch!“

“I stopped by Tate twice during my 4 day visit. They have a huge selection of pastries, cakes and baked goods. Their menu is extensive. I enjoyed my savory French toast. If I had a bigger stomach, I would love to try their sweet French toast because it looked amazing on someone’s table!!! I loved the new drink “Ginger date latte with oat milk”. It had such good flavor. I only wish the milk was thoroughly steamed, but it was only lukewarm. But, overall, I like Tatte a lot and would definitely return when I visit Boston next time.

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a lift inside their restaurant.“

“Dado is the best kept secret in Cambridge. A beautiful café that feels so peaceful, considered and thoughtful in its every detail—the perfect place to sit with a friend, or take some time to just be alone and read a book. The co-owner Namwon has great energy. He was always really kind and welcoming to me and my boyfriend (we are from Australia, but Dado felt like a little slice of home). The food is really tasty (I could never go past their egg-salad sandwich; my partner loves the bibimbap wrap), and Dado, of course, has an amazing selection of teas. More than just feeding the body, all the meals felt like they were nourishing the soul. Just good honest cooking—maybe the rarest of things today. We’re about to leave Harvard this semester, and one of the great things we’ll miss is Dado.“

“Great coffee. Delightful owners“

“This was so good!
I had a great experience at this place! I enjoyed the lamb breakfast and a cappuccino. The variety of choices is impressive, and the breakfast was simply delicious. The cappuccino came with adorable cat latte art, reflecting the staff's extra care and attention to detail. The place is well-designed and well-organized. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Boston.“

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

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

“Tried several Tatte and this one is special. Food is always perfect and if ever someone has taken my online order, the managers always assist and get is asap. Store is super clean and service is always special. I do like the small talk. Mary, Francesca Gm, Roselyn, Hector always know my order and drinks. Totally worth the daily trip.“

“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.“

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

“TEBRİKLER... GÜZEL İNSANLAR“

“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!“

“What can I say other than magical?! We were fortunate enough to host my son’s 11th birthday party in the back room (The kids loved the secret hidden entrance through the bookcase). Tons of great games for all ages and the food was fantastic! Literally everything we had was gourmet quality and up to my foodie 11 year-old’s standards. We will definitely be back if not just for the food!“

“If you’re looking for a place that’s clean, safe, and FUN to go highly recommend. Awesome food and drinks ($5 sandwiches during happy hour!), lovely outdoor patio dining, and there are still games available to play sanitized between people! So happy to come back here again and get the same great service.“

“Best place ever Always feel comfortable and safe when I am here“

“Delicious food!!
Variety of fresh Chinese sweets. I also got very delicious Portuguese cake. Very good location, clean and super organized, lovely prices. Personal portions and to share, you can even transport them. Ideal to take as souvenirs! They have delivery! Puff pastry almond cookies are my favorites! They have products with green tea.“

“How anyone could give this place a bad review makes no sense to me. You've probably already read from the other reviews that the staff is incredible, but truly -- they are. They are so kind and welcoming to every single person that comes in. Aside from that, the coffee is AMAZING! They have so many different flavors to choose from and you can customize any drink however you like (even if it's not on the menu). Also, the breakfast sandwiches... wow. Get 'The Stallion', just trust me. Prices are completely reasonable. Honestly, no other coffee place I've been to even compares. I'll be a longtime customer!“

“So sad. Today was their last day in Allston. Going to miss them...and their banana bread!“

“The food is good but don't look at the menu online because it is not what they offer.“

“Best butterbeer latte in the world!“

“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!
