Top 5 Coffee Shops in Boston

Top Tier EditorialSourcesThe Boston Globe

  1. 1

    George Howell Coffee

    Downtown Crossing

    The Globe's caffeine-connoisseur pick — globally sourced beans roasted in Acton, with cold brews, pour-overs, and free tastings.

  2. 2

    Gracenote Coffee Boston

    Leather District

    The Globe likens it to boarding the Orient Express — beans from Colombia, Ethiopia, and Kenya, and an Alpha espresso with notes of milk chocolate and lavender.

  3. 3

    1369 Coffee House

    Inman Square

    Since 1993 — the Globe's quintessential Cambridge coffeehouse, with carefully selected roasts and a cult-favorite malted cold brew.

  4. 4

    Broadsheet Coffee Roasters

    Cambridge

    The Globe highlights the small-batch roasts made at Broadsheet's Somerville facility, with ever-changing featured brews and seasonal syrups.

  5. 5

    Madhouse Cafe

    Roxbury

    The Globe's Roxbury standout — a tahini latte under the shared window between the cafe and Madhouse Motors' custom-bike showroom.
