From our beloved regulars
Brewery and a coffee shop, there’s something for everyone here! Enjoyed the seasonal Juniper Latte, flavor was fairly light, but the standout was the spicy hot chocolate! Kitchen does close by 3pm so can’t speak to the food, but drinks and vibes were good! Definitely a louder environment but lots of seating areas available!
Great place to get some work done while sipping a good cup of coffee. Always busy. Affordable food options. Best breakfast burrito in town. Everybody who says otherwise is lying.
Great cappuccino with broadsheet beans. Microfoam was well done and mixed in. Also don’t forget to try Lamplighter brews. Excellent local beers - high quality and unique with great artwork.
This place has a FANTASTIC breakfast burrito. Don’t sleep on the burritos. Also, the black sugar cardamom latte is so lovely when it’s chilly. This is a great cafe to work out of, it’s basically guaranteed that the person next to you is being productive here.
The best coffee in Cambridge for sure. The coffee is amazing with a great rich flavor that is really hard to find around. I don't usually eat there, only a pastry and a coffee, but every single one of the pastries is delicious. The rest of the food looks really good, and most people are sitting there for a quick breakfast (the prices are definitely fair). It is a great spot for studying or working with your laptop. The music is really good and it feels like an open space for students and people working from home. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Great spot to get some work done or just hang out with a book! We came earlier on a Tuesday morning and were easily able to grab a spot. It got way busier around 9-9:30am so I'd recommend coming early, especially if you're with other people. There are outlets spread out around, although some areas I couldn't see one nearby, like the seats by the window right next to the door. There are also gender neutral restrooms down the hall by the counter. I got an iced matcha latte and a pastry, both of which I enjoyed. The prices aren't too bad either. I'd definitely come back in the future!
A bustling local café by day and an energetic brewery by night, Pepita Coffee offers a great array of drinks and light eats. During the past few weeks, Pepita Coffee has been one of my go-to spots for coffee and sandwiches. At first glance, the place looks like a secret local gem, but despite its ample seating, encompassing bar stools and comfortable couches, snagging a spot can be a challenge. From their drinks, I really enjoyed their lattes. Both the Earl Grey Latte and the Matcha Latte were smooth, with their bitterness toned down without being overly sweet. Where Pepita really excels is in food. All the sandwiches I tried were spot on with flavors. On the avocado toast, they used large flakes of salt and a pinch of chili powder to enhance the umami of the avocado, and pickled onions and a splash of lime juice to give an extra tang. Served chill, the roasted portobello & caramelized onion sandwich had a satisfying sweetness and smokiness combo that was further enhanced with their special sauce. The breakfast croissant sandwich, complete with a spicy kick from banana peppers, was another great treat. If you’re looking for flavorful light meals and good drinks in a lively atmosphere, I highly recommend checking them out.
Vibes were immaculate and the food were great brunch servings! Will be back
Taking business in the front, party in the back and flipping it on its head. As soon as you walk in, there's an energy and an indescribable vibe. Ordering is simple although sometimes confusing if busy. I will admit, at first I thought the Cubano was overpriced at $14, but that price explained itself when they called my name and a massive sandwich was handed to me. Cortados are often misrepresented, and I'm glad Pepita knows its espresso drinks; the juniper syrup adds a nice touch to the fruity and full-bodied espresso. Dozens of options for the craft enthusiast, and from the looks of it, an even better rotation of fun activites and community engagement events. Music in the 'quiet room' was a bit loud, but otherwise the vibe, the food, and the staff were an exceptional representation of Cambridge at its best.
Such a nice for weekend morning!! Prefect brunch choice and the people here are really nice.
