Finally, a coffee that tastes good.

Love stopping here in the morning for a coffee and breakfast sandwich! The mocha and the vanilla latte are both great and well balanced. The breakfast sandwiches are a good size. I highly recommend the croissant as your base- it's fresh and perfectly flaky, which you wouldn't really expect for a small window-service coffee spot.

usually pretty good but feel like the quality has been slipping. last drink I got here the milk was over steamed and the espresso wasn't the best

The lack of an inside area is disappointing, but the service and friendliness was still nice. The cortado was not extra hot like I asked and was very very small. Paying $4 for that seems like a bit much when you don't even get the atmosphere of a coffee shop. But the coffee was still very well-made and tasty!

Coffee is great but sometimes the bagels come really full with cream cheese and sometimes not

Nine Bar has since transitioned from in-person dining to window-service only, but the food and the vibe of an iced coffee and everything bagel in front of the Somerville Theater is grand! The bagel creators truly lob on the shmear/toppings.

The staff is kind and there is no shortage of kooky shenanigans going on in and around Davis Square. 10/10

Cute hole-in-the-wall coffee bar, with excellent well-rounded espresso and creamy almond milk lattes. Pastries are yummy too. Note that this place is to-go only, and there is no seating.

Take out only from a window along the sidewalk. I actually walked past it because it's not marked well at all.
You just walk up and order but then have to stand and block the sidewalk while waiting for your food/drink, which is really weird to me. The pictures on google maps and their website look like there's an inside area when there isn't, which is misleading. I get closing the inside during COVID, but if you're not planning to open the inside up to customers, the website should be updated to say it's takeout only.
I didn't even realize they had pastries until I came to write this review because they weren't advertised or in the window or anything. I just got an iced latte and it was fine, but nothing special.

This walk up window is one of our favorites! Perfect to stop by when we are walking our pup. Coffee is great, they serve Broadsheet here. All the workers are always super nice and helpful. Love this place.
