"Wonderful coffee and even better pastries in a very aesthetically pleasing atmosphere! We loved the almond croissant. Plus, the baristas were a delight to chat with."

"I stumbled upon this spot online and had to check it out and I’m so glad I did! This place is hands down one of the most peaceful and aesthetically pleasing spots I’ve experienced in Boston. Honestly, it feels like something you'd find in LA. It has this elevated, modern vibe that’s super inviting. They have a great selection of pastries, all from Iggy’s Bakery. The croissants are perfectly flaky, buttery, and just the right size barely bigger than your palm. The coffee is top notch, too. We all got lattes, and I tried mine with their in house macadamia almond milk, which was absolutely delicious. It’s a bit pricey, but honestly, every sip is totally worth it."

"Such an adorable little cafe! Although the street parking is kinda hard to find, its interior design is very charming. I really appreciate the café's cozy ambiance and excellent service. However, the drinks could use some improvement—the matcha is a bit weak, and the coffee lacks a rich aroma. That said, their specialty drinks are absolutely delicious! Bakery is good as well. Ham&cheese croissant is a must-try!"

"Cozy little cafe with great pastries and very smooth coffee. I just wish the shop was larger so that there was more seating available. It was very busy on a Sat morning. Service was very friendly, and prices were reasonable for the quality. I'd come back!"

"New unique café from the Iggy’s Bread team. For the past few months, Kismet has been my favorite place in Cambridge to unwind. Not your everyday laptop-and-latte cafe, but rather it leans hard into aesthetics over practical utility. The space is small, but they make it work beautifully. Instead of cramming in tables, they opted for plants, a fireplace, and lofty ceilings that fill the place with natural light. During colder months, the fireplace becomes the centerpiece that provides both warmth and ambiance. Pastries come from their main Iggy’s bakery, with a small rotating selection: croissants, cheese twists, and a couple sweets. Limited, but top-tier. Iggy’s is my favorite local bakery, and their croissants always deliver—flaky, soft, and never overly buttery. Difficult to pick a favorite, but I really enjoyed the Chocolate croissant, Almond croissant, and the Pepperoni cheese twist. Without a tray or full-sized table, it was almost impossible to eat these without making a mess, but it was a mess worth making. Drinks-wise, their “Healing” lineup seemed unique. Aromatic coffee-based drinks infused with dried floral petals and unconventional ingredient combos. Each drink has its own vibe and scent. I wouldn’t say they justify the premium price, but they’re interesting enough to try at least once."
