What People Are Saying
from Google"A perfectly decent spot – we had a good breakfast, though not one that I’ll remember for a long time. Don’t get me wrong – the ingredients were fresh, the bread was high-quality, and everything was nicely presented, but nothing really stood out or surprised us. If I lived nearby, I’d definitely stop by more often. The menu offers a wide variety of options – maybe we just didn’t pick the best ones this time. One thing I can absolutely recommend is the matcha – it was delicious. The place is spacious, great for working on a laptop, hanging out over coffee, or just relaxing. Overall – a pretty nice place."
"I've gone here a few times to do remote work. It's conveniently located close to the Kendall T stop and is a nice airy space. I appreciate the long hours, it's rare to find a cafe where I don't have to leave at like 2 or 3 PM lol. It gets a bit busy at lunchtime, but nothing overwhelming, and service is fast and efficient. I'd say the only thing keeping this from being a perfect WFH spot is a surprising lack of outlets. I've never had issues being able to snag a seat with an outlet, but they could still stand to have more so I can at least try sitting in other parts of the cafe lmao. Drinks are amazing, food a bit of a mixed bag but that is entirely my own fault (for reasons I'll explain): - Drink-wise, I've had the blueberry matcha cloud, the Yin Yang, and the canned oat milk matcha latte. Their matcha is quite good, with a strong flavor, and I was impressed by how fresh the can tasted. The Yin Yang is smooth and nicely balanced, and I like that the flavor leans more toward tea than coffee. - As for food, I've gotten the maple hash brown breakfast burrito, the snack wrap, and the fries. They were all delicious, but each time left my stomach feeling kind of upset...totally not their fault, I think I'm just past the age where I can eat a large quantity of fried potatoes with no consequences. The snack wrap especially was a lot bigger than I expected, def bigger than I remember McD's being. I was afraid it would be small so I got the fries, but I really didn't need them...and the fries came in this gigantic bowl as you can see in the pictures. They were delicious fries, mind you. Like bougie McD's fries lol. And I actually felt I got $5 worth of fries. It's just too many fries for me to be eating in one sitting. - I admit this problem is entirely self-created and they do have a lot of healthy options. Their salads especially look good, so I'll try those in the future! All in all, a good place and I'll definitely keep going here to work."
"The yuzu cloud matcha was divine!! I would come back just for that. The steak and cheese sandwich had good flavors. I'll definitely be coming more often to try more drinks and sandwiches!"
"Spicy chai and great matcha! If you add syrup to the matcha it will be quite sweet. I like the spice in the chai as this can be hard to find at cafes. There is plenty of indoor seating and the cafe is clean inside. Location is very convenient from MIT."
"Matcha was pretty good, but not the best I’ve had in Cambridge. Yogurt bowl was a decent size for the price, and the homemade granola really hit the spot, would recommend! Area is pretty large but not that many actual seats and it gets super crowded from all the students, overall a convenient place to grab a bite and do some work!"
