25 Best Coffee Shops in Somerville

“Great coffee. Delightful owners“

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

“What a treat to find this little French bakery in Somerville! The cardamom bun this morning was crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside with just a bit of caramelisation at the bottom and really nice amount of cardamom - which can often be lacking in cardamom buns. The pain au chocolat was still warm and the chocolate was soft. The entire thing melted in my mouth. I also enjoyed the coffee! Not an every day place for those that need to be careful of their pastry/bread/butter intake, but a treat for sure!“

“The sandwiches here are MASSIVE and loaded up. Get the sourdough!! Easily the softest, most moist sourdough I’ve ever had.

The pastries are also good. They are known for the maple scone, which was good but I found it a little dry/chalky. The banana chocolate chunk muffin was great.“

“Our favorite local coffee shop. They constantly pull delicious espresso, have a great selection of roasts, and the food always satisfies. The chocolate zucchini loaf cannot be missed! I also really appreciate that there’s no WiFi. It makes it easy to consistently find a place to sit because people aren’t camping out all day.“

“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.“

“- Tried Breakfast Grilled Crack and Fancy sandwiches which were amazing and highly recommended; about 12 dollars which is expensive
- minimal room inside store and no internal seating; it’s to go only
- very nice team there“

“Muy delicioso Más que recomendado“

“Vietnamese café with solid coffee and matcha.

Stopped by a few weekends ago, a little past noon, and the place was already packed. Most of the food items (including the egg rolls) were sold out by then, so we ended up ordering the grilled pork bánh mì, a salted matcha latte, and an egg coffee.

The salted matcha latte was great. This was only my second time trying salted foam on a latte, but the sweet-and-salty combination worked as expected. The foam added a pleasant savory note that balanced the matcha nicely without overwhelming it.

The egg coffee, unfortunately, was bad. We had to wait an extra 20 minutes for a fresh batch of egg foam, but even then, it didn’t integrate well with the espresso and tasted bitter. My Vietnamese friend mentioned that egg coffee is typically much sweeter (closer to a dessert coffee), so this wasn’t quite what I imagined.

The grilled pork bánh mì was good. Can’t say I eat enough banh mi to call this top-tier or not, but the baguette had the right crunch. Just wish there was more sauce.“

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

“I had maybe my favorite sandwich of all time at this quaint and unassuming cafe.

Not in the loud bombastic sort of way, the overflowing ingredients arranged nicely for instagram, the punny names or the clever fusions. No, none of that. Just a simple sandwich with fresh, perfectly balanced ingredients, creating the perfect bite over and over. I wasn't expecting anything remotely of that caliber when I came for a lunch on a day off. But I took one bite and felt transported to a time when things were done right. Done for the sake of the craft and not to sell out or create lines. Done in a way that speaks of not knowing how to do it differently. It was truly spectacular.

The iced coffee was terrible though.“

“Petsi Pies in Somerville is a gem loved by people all over Boston. Their pecan pie is simply the best—perfectly sweet, with a great crust. If you’re looking for a classic pie done right, this is the place to go. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to add a little extra to their Thanksgiving table or for birthday pie lovers!“

“The food is authentic and sanitary.“

“It’s like an old school dunks in here. Always filled with folks hanging out gossiping over coffee. It’s clean. They’re always fast and accurate. The staff is friendly. The gentleman with the longer dark hair really seems to enjoy is his job and will banter with the regulars, he’s really kind and personable.

It’s really clean. Big parking lot. It’s a Dunks, it’s not here to reinvent the wheel on cheap coffee. Place your order, enjoy the atmosphere while you wait and head out for your day. What more could you need?“

“Súper fast service very sweet young employees“

“my friend and i were unsure what to order and were just probably a little difficult LOL. Nick, who took our order was super helpful and nice to us. He was assisting a new team member navigate the POS while helping us figure out our orders, top notch.“

“excelente ubicación,presentación de platillos y atención“

“Superb and substantial crepes, and delicious tea to boot! I love coming here before a show at the Somerville theater.“

“My coworker recommended this place. I absolutely love the passion fruit green tea! I go there very often to get it. It’s refreshing and delicious!
Charlotte was the barista the first time I went. She was very helpful, patient and informative. I had many questions and she was so good to me! Charlotte is so kind and always smiling every time I come in.
I highly recommend this place! Always a great experience. 10/10“

“I would like to give a shout out to Erica who was the hostess in this location today. Erica came up to the table and mentioned about the marination procedure of chicken to make sure there is no food allergy problems with the customers (us). I have never had this experience where the hostess paying special attention to each one of the customers especially on a busy Friday evening. Tatte is lucky to have employees like Erica who go extra mile that will only help build the brand further!“

“Great place even a Starbucks inside“

“Totally awesome ice cream. Watch out for the hot fudge thiugh, it's addictive to the max!“

“Service was fast. They have an excellent and broad selection of sandwiches and pastries in a beautiful atmospheric cafe.“

“Best coffee and absolutely best service!! Always clean!“

“All DD's are differant, depends on the staff, I seem to find the ones that serve the older left over ice coffee that has a strong taste and the prices are to much for iced mud.When you find the ones that use fresh iced coffee stick with those good stores.“
