Good coffee but I'm not sure there is much of a difference between any of the espresso options. Decent price and good pastries.

Their staff and pasteries were good, but I found it gross how they did not clean their steam wands. Both had a thick layer of dried milk.

Terrific spot! Great variety of baked goods with a Latin flair. Delicious Colombian coffee. Great service! Boom! 5-Star joint!
Joshua Scherz
Best coffee in the area. Brewed hot! Lunch and breakfast foods are delicious. When they are roasting the place smells wonderful!

I wanted to like this place. The coffee is just ok - certainly not on par with Peet's or starbucks. And the pastries I've had (2 different times) are not fresh and it doesn't seem like they are made on site. I was disappointed.

I arrived with high hopes, grabbing a bag of their yellow caturra, but noticed there was no roast date on the bag. I asked the man behind the counter about the roast dates and that I was using the beans for pourover, and he replied that beans need to de-gas and that they are good for about 6 months, and that the beans he had were about 6 weeks off roast and were all roasted in Colombia, not here in Framingham. He's partially right, beans used for espresso need to de-gas for about 2 weeks because of the method of extraction under 9 bar pressure which would produce carbonic acid if used too close to roast date, whereas coffee used for pourover or any normal atmospheric pressure extraction does NOT need to be degassed at all and in fact should be used within 2 weeks of roast, as the CO2 releases naturally during pre-infusion. Any barista worth their salt knows all this and could rattle it off in their sleep. The fact that the owner does not, and continues to push 6 week old coffee at crazy prices, suggests that he doesn't care. How about a $29 bag of 6 week old Colombian Geisha? Absurd. The owner is counting on people having zero coffee knowledge but is charging 3rd-wave premium coffee prices. Still waiting for a good coffee shop near Framingham, this isn't it.

first of all don’t go at night because you will literally be blinded by workshop LED lamps. and they are bright and disgusting and everywhere it felt like i was in a warehouse there and that is NOT what i want in a coffee shop. the coffee was probably made with expired milk. idk whts worse. is it worse to have coffee that tastes like expired milk, or a coffee that tastes fine but has expired milk in it. and then my girlfriend gave up halfway trying to cut of a piece of the tiramisu bc it was THAT HARD. and then i took a bite and i almost followed my girlfriend’s lead of spitting a bite out underneath the rest of her pastry. uuuuumm. no. i don’t want to say a single other thing. i don’t want to waste a single other breath on this review. that’s how bad it was. f this place i wish i could swear.

Disclaimer - I only buy iced cold brew coffee, black. That's the only thing I've purchased here. Same way I've had it at dunks, sbucks,
peet's, etc etc. Its the best I've ever had at Saxonville. They dont give it away, that's for sure, but it is so GD good it's worth it. If you like cold brew coffee this is the best in the Metrowest.

Great place. Occasionally they mess up your order but its tough with masks on. They're super nice and it has a great vibe. Coffee is great.
