Best coffee shop in spring Hill, and gives everything in Davis a run for their money easy. Always a line out the door on weekends and deservedly, but they move fast. Great pepper biscuits, great yogurt. BLT is weirdly bad but the turkey sandwich is great.

This place nails it. High quality food and drink in a setting that is the perfect place to sit with friends, read, or write. Reasonable prices too. Of note is the clear attention to detail in both food and service here. Sets the standard for cafe culture around Somerville, hopefully other places will catch on soon. Bonus stars for the latte art.

Their cortado showcased the flavor profile of espresso wonderfully, and the pepper biscuit was savory and delicious. I appreciated the "no laptops" sign as the space is small, and people camping out there would fill the place up quickly. There is seating outside, which was perfect for a cool morning. Sparkling water on tap is always a bonus ?

There are a few tables, it is not that big cafe but it is cozy. It looks always busy. We had coffee and sandwiches. They were all good.

Enjoyed a super cute late breakfast here this past weekend! I was expecting it to be packed considering it was right around lunch ish time, but was pleasantly surprised! It was pretty crowded and you do need to be vigilant to grab a table during busy times. The food, coffee, and vibes were excellent! I got the pepper biscuit and my friend got the egg feta sandwich. We both got lattes mine hot and my friend's iced. The biscuit sandwich was delicious and I loved the biscuit- it was soft and buttery and flaky. The latte was also lovely. This has been on my list of places to visit and I'm so glad I got the chance. Will be back to try other items on the menu again!!

If you want a breakfast sandwich that literally makes your eyes roll back into your head- this is the place to go!!! I am sincerely always delighted with anything I've ever ordered at this restaurant- savoring every bit til the last bite. The interior is cute, the staff is friendly, and it's located in a quite area that has both indoor and outdoor seating. While this place is incredible, the seating is pretty limited inside, so I wouldn't recommend eating-in for large groups (4+). But if you're looking for a brunch date spot or somewhere to-go this place never misses. My favorite sandwich is 'the market' (photo attached).

Amazing breakfast/brunch place. Highly recommend and the cashier was super nice. A good variety of pastries. I got the chai muffin but there were other wacky flavors that you wouldn't find at other bakeries. Cold brew was good. I got the black pepper biscuit with a sausage for $8 which isn't bad. The biscuit was a little drier than I would've liked but the taste and freshness was there. The biscuit came with cheese and scrambled egg. I added on the sausage for $2 (originally the sandwich is $6) and it was good but nothing special. Parking is a bit weird cause you need to street park and the inside is kind of packed most times cause there isn't a lot of seating. Don't bring your laptop to do work because this is not that type of coffee shop. Will be back to try the other menu items.

3 Little Figs secures a 4/5 rating, with an asterisk for being on the pricier side. While everything on the menu boasts tastiness, the cost is a bit of a detractor. The smoothie and breakfast sandwich, though delightful, come with a slight letdown as the sandwich proves smaller than anticipated, but alongside the smoothie I was definitely full and ready for a day of work. Expect to shell out $20-25 for a breakfast that, while flavorful, may strain the average student budget. The limited seating further adds to the potential challenges, as snagging a table post-order isn't guaranteed. The cafe's strict policy against computers, WiFi, and working creates an atmosphere geared more towards quick consumption than lingering. Despite these drawbacks, it remains a spot where one can enjoy a book with breakfast, navigating the fine line between flavor and fiscal considerations.

The coffee options are always great and very well dialed in. The only thing that could make this place better is if they had croissants on their menu!

The best baked goods, coffee, and sandwiches. I love the pepper biscuit, the village sandwich, and literally every baked good they serve.

Cute little shop with great selection of sandwiches. No laptop policy = no people working, which is fantastic. Quintessential coffee house music playing in the background. Coffee isn’t the best, but it’s better than Starbucks by a mile.

This place is amazing. I'm such a coffee snob and It hits every time. I almost don't want to leave this review because I want to gate keep this place, I work at a phoenix down studios right down the street and me and my co workers and clients love to stop by for a coffee or sandwich. They never miss!
