Intelligentsia Coffee Watertown Coffeebar

Great coffee.
$ 5.50 for a plain croissant feels like a borderline criminal charge

Very good coffee...the Americano I had was flavorful, robust and one of the best I've had. My cup of coffee was also brewed and served very thoughtfully. Highly recommend for an interesting coffee experience.

Coffee is fine, a tad overpriced. But they buy their pastries from Forge in Somerville, which is the real draw to the restaurant in my opinion. Limited seating to do work - fills up pretty fast.

Wow! This may be the best non dairy mocha I've had in the Boston area! Creamy, chocolatey, with a nice bite of caffination! All for less than six bucks!

Honestly, I can't think of a place I've had a better one off the top of my head anywhere.

They use oat milk here and I'm a convert of the barista brand that they use (Oatly).

Will definitely make a point of going here if I'm in the area, and maybe even going a little out of the way (especially as it's right across the street from Sofra, it's own worthy destination).

Drinks were good but it's pretentious and over priced. The barista looked at my friend like she was an idiot for asking if they could add vanilla and if they had soy milk. It's definitely not for people who like anything complex in their coffee

This place is cozy with lots of nooks and crannies to sit in. The coffee is all hand made to order. This is not the place for a quick cup on the run but is a place to sit back an enjoy a craft coffee. There is plenty of parking and seating!

I only get tea, but they have a great selection and my wife loves the coffee and the pastries and other food items look really good.

Love their trade policies and have been an intelligentsia supporter for years before they landed in Boston, but the expense of their menu is unjustified, particularly with such inconsistent baristas. They have have nailed their aesthetic, sure, wifi, few lines, great. But show me the numbers on how those 8 dollars that went to a (lukewarm, chunky, and distinctly unfragrant) matcha and similarly priced latte are making their way to producers as opposed to getting funneled over to Intelligentsia's expansion. How about investing in demonstrating that supporting direct trade and sustainable farming does not require one belong to a narrow income bracket?

Delicious coffee, nice staff. Even a tiny parking lot.

They are asking for the vaccination status now. That's on top of small parking, snail-pace service and super premium prices.
Never again.
