50 Best Coffee Shops near West Newton

“Moments Cafe offers one of the best matcha 🍵 latte I’ve ever tried in New England area.

I have lactose intolerance but i forgot to order my latte with oat milk 🥛. When I realized that the shop already made my drink so I asked them to remake it for me and they were happily remake it without complaint or charging me for another drink.

They also offer a variety of pastries 🥐 and waffles 🧇 that’s called Croffles, my absolute favorite!

I can not recommend this place enough! I’m so happy I’ve found a cozy coffee shop for the upcoming cold season. I’ll definitely tell all my friends and family to come and try their drinks and baked goodies.

Come and see for yourself, you won’t regret the trip!

Love,

“Went for the first time and everything was great!!“

“A great gem my daughter and I went to while she was visiting from California . The monkey bread muffin definitely a treat along with the peanut butter explosion coffee Thank you for your kindness“

“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.“

“The Honey Hybrid coffee is DELICIOUS!!“

“Great coffee. Delightful owners“

“Fig is the best! Their takeout window basically got me through the pandemic, and I feel very lucky that this is my local. As a certified scone-hater, their blueberry scone is the best I've ever had. I recommend their lattes, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches (the cheddar cheese is SHARP), and chia pudding. Their lunch sandwiches are also great. 10/10 for staff, vibes, food, and coffee.“

“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.“

“Fantastic breakfast! Best in Boston hands down.“

“Such a cute spot in the cutest neighborhood! I just moved to Bay Village and have been dying to try this place. It was very packed on a beautiful Sunday morning, so my boyfriend and I decided to place an online order and walk around until it was ready. It took about 30 mins in total. We got the breakfast burrito with chorizo and the Baller breakfast sandwich and split. Both were delicious! The tortilla was awesome as was the homemade English muffin. You can really tell everything was made with high quality ingredients and love. I will absolutely be back to try more of their offerings!“

“We ate at bom dough when we visited my grandson who lives on Cambridge Street . Food was delicious and unique. Would love to send him a gift card , and would also eat there again if we visit him.“

“Great food and coffee and tea! Friendly staff! Beautiful atmosphere with lots of light and pleasing design.“

“Best cortado that I have had in Boston for sure. Such a great coffee shop. Love the cleanliness and decoration as well.“

“I visited this shop for the first time today, and the atmosphere was both cozy and tidy! The staff were incredibly friendly. The owner, in particular, was exceptionally helpful—he gave me all the pens in the shop for free, helping me solve a major work problem! He said he didn't need any thanks from me! I was truly deeply moved.“

“Glazed Bytes Coffee is selling itself short by being tucked inside a tiny, painfully forgettable mall in Brookline. The coffee itself? Not forgettable at all.

We ordered two Cloud Foam Lattes (I think that was the name), and that foam was ridiculous in the best way possible. It sits somewhere between an absurdly fluffy marshmallow and canned whipped cream, except smoother, creamier, and somehow lighter at the same time. I genuinely have no idea how they made foam feel “luxurious”, but there we are.

The coffee underneath actually held its own too. Strong flavour, unique profile, not just another Instagram café trying to survive off aesthetics and oat milk. Properly good coffee.

Honestly, the mall needs them more than they need the mall. Places like this drive foot traffic way harder than another random clothing shop nobody remembers walking into. More food spots. More cafés. More reasons for people to actually stay there.

Really good spot. Hidden gem energy.“

“Had an hour to burn and found this local brewery.
1. Variety of beers. The pumpkin beer was a win!
2. Nice place to chill out - alone or with friends.
3. Cafe operates separately inside the brewery. Food is good and hand held.
4. Patio seating, too.
Support your local brewer!“

“I love you so much Phinista. I’m so lucky to work close by. You are my Friday morning treat I look forward to that pushes me through the week. My favorite item is the Saigon breakfast bahn mi. Every drink I’ve tried has been stellar too but I especially like the ube coffee and coco cloud ube. There’s nothing like a slow early morning to sit in their cozy cafe too“

“Solid ground cafe has one of the best breakfast sandwiches I have ever had. My son has frequent inpatient stays at Childrens. This is the perfect quick walk to get a great breakfast and coffee.“

“My favorite part of Cicada is how it suddenly feels you are so far away from Cambridge. The combination of being so kindly met by the staff and to have food that is so exquisitely executed creates a joyful atmosphere where our group of 3 had an incredible experience. Will always come back!“

“Staff are nice and have good service“

“10/10 experience! Great coffee and breakfast. Love the vibe of the atmosphere!“

“The best bakery I’ve tried yet! I was very excited to try Michette while in town this weekend, but was absolutely blown away by the pastries I tried. My partner and I tried several croissants, cookies, and buns. Every single one was fresh, flaky, buttery, and packed with unique flavor combinations I’ve never had before. We only waited about 5 minutes to order, but I would wait in the longest line to be able to have these pastries again. The service, taste, and quality are unbeatable. I’ll never stop talking about you Michette.“

“This place is the absolute best. I come here weekly with friends and could talk about why I love it all day. Highly, highly recommend. Some highlights:
-incredibly friendly staff who make you feel comfortable and at home
-delicious food and beverages, with fun monthly/seasonal specials and excellent vegan friendly options
-impeccable cozy vibes. Just perfect for a relaxing morning
-often bring other friends and visitors here, who all love it too“

“My husband and I had the cornbread, raspberry currant muffin, cold brew flight, carnitas taco, elote taco, and avocado tostado. All of it was amazing and affordable!!“

“Deliciousness!!! You made my day! 😁🌯“

“My first time in and we will be back! The smells! The food! And of course the best coffee. We loved the vibe and the different seating options. Great way to step away from the chaos and into a different world for a beat.“

“I live in Bar Harbor, Maine, and one of my guests staying with us offered me a homemade bagel from this establishment. It's one of the best poppy seed bagels I've had in a long time, and the homemade chive cream cheese pairs so perfectly with the smoked salmon. It made my day eating this bagel after work. I love lox. It's one of the sweetest gifts a guest has ever given me. 💕 When I travel the coast looking at lighthouses this winter, this bagel shop will definitely be on my places to stop. Alan is a great supporter and saleman! I'm happy to have met him and have him as one of my guests. Great memory, I'll keep with me. Thanks Alan 😊😊“

“Delicious food and great coffee drinks! Excellent service from everyone and a super cute space —- highly recommend!“

“amazing pastries!! nice people and very good coffee. I will be back!“

“Great coffee & some of the best breakfast sandwiches in all of Boston“

“I loved hanging out there.“

“I had a wonderful time here. The atmosphere was calm and cozy, and it was nice and cool inside, making it the perfect place to relax. The staff members were also incredibly friendly. I was so touched that they served a piece of Turkish delight with my Turkish coffee—what a thoughtful touch! Thank you for such a great experience!“

“Great coffee, and their seasonal drinks are always creative and delicious. I've been going here for years, it's one of the best around.

This location was excellent under its 2023 era management. Service has slipped since then, with less care from the baristas taking orders and making drinks, but it's still a great cafe overall.

Bonus points: No upcharge for non-dairy milk.
No penalty for being lactose intolerant or plant-based, which is how it should be everywhere.“

“There is a reason there is a line at this place. Their lattes / matcha are wonderful. Strawberry Matcha with real strawberries. Quality ingredients, made to perfect proportions for a great beverages. Will update when I try their baked goods.“

“We ordered a vegan half sheet almond cake from Luna’s—it was TERRIFIC. It joined several other cakes at a family gathering, and everyone loved it.

I found it easy to communicate with the bakery manager, and that she had some terrific ideas for flavors. I would absolutely order from them again. Pickup was super easy, too!“

“Cake order review only: easy to inquire about a cake online. Easy payment once we discussed the vision of the cake. And easy pickup. BEAUTIFUL CAKE. The cake was $90 for a heart shaped 2 layer cake with vintage piping, vegan vanilla with vegan vanilla buttercream and strawberry jam filling. I didn’t get the filling but was refunded immediately and the person handling the situation was so nice. I had asked why the darker icing tasted to chemically and they informed that the more they use the dye the more it tastes like it. So I would just skip that completely. Get the lighter frostings. Because like I said these are beautiful cakes and the cake itself is a good texture and flavor as a vegan cake.“

“Really cute coffee shop.

The decor inside is super inviting- I love the touch of real glasses and jugs of water on the tables.

It feels like a great place to study and/or just hang out.

The coffee was good and decently priced. Added benefit of having the open courtyard right in front.“

“I am currently eating a raisin scone from The Studio Café, and it is absolutely delicious. I don't usually go for raisins, but this is such a delicious pastry.“

“Great neighborhood coffee shop. Their flavors are abundant. Their sandwiches are delicious. I haven’t tried their blended drinks but have heard positive reviews from neighbors.“

“Amazing Staff, amazing food !!! If You’re in Harvard Sq. don’t miss out!“

“enjoyed a nice cappuccino“

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

“Brought my mom to Blank Street for the first time at this location and she said “this is the best coffee I’ve ever had”. The baristas here were so sweet, so fast with my order, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! RB and Susie helped us out today and they need raises IMMEDIATELY“

“Great close by coffee shop. Loved it.“

“This has amazing hot chocolate. Worth trekking too on an 80 degree humid day. The hot chocolate is creamy, smooth, rich, and sweet. The gentlemen who made mine was very kind and friendly, possibly the owner? A few more people behind me ended up asking for hot chocolate as well. I highly recommend this place, which also has a great food selection as well!

“Whoever bakes their scones has a gift!“

“Delicious fresh authentic Liège waffles! Service was friendly and fast , highly recommended !!“

“first reliable place I've found in Massachusetts when it comes to complex brews like pour overs or siphons. you really need a barista that cares when you're talking about an $8 cup of coffee somewhere. best Bean selection I've seen anywhere, very professional brewing setups. busy place, not going to find a quiet corner with a cushy couch but I will say the tables weren't tippy. half the coffee shops we go to have tippy tables. I got a siphon and it was so good I went back and got a pour over. well-trained and genuinely friendly staff - they weren't just painting on a smile. a pleasure to visit a place that takes coffee as seriously as it should be taken. it's a half hour from the house but I can't wait to go back. I would abandon homebrewing and be here every day if it was 5 minutes away. owners, your second location should be in little old Maynard! Your brand is so good as to be a coffee destination. Bravo.“

“Had my 1st time order of their Hawaiian Grilled Cheese; YUMS! I was taken back from their use of BBQ sauce, makes the sandwich super sweet, but honestly, I'd order it again!“

“Stopped by for a quick coffee before we headed off to the zoo. Coffee was good, service excellent. Lady at the front making the coffee and ringing us up, was very sweet. You can tell she’s well loved in the area since most people that were walking in, were regulars. Only downside is that I felt like it was really pricey, but then again, so are big coffee chains so I rather it go to small business owners. A lot of different options to choose from so it can be overwhelming for someone like me who struggles with making decisions! LOL“
