Had a great oat milk cortado and a perfect ginger scone. I really liked the space but it was a touch in the small side. I think the design added to tight space feel. The prices were a touch above what I’ve come to expect from 3rd wave joints but I know intelligentsia is a bit of a brand name. I found the staff to be Pleasant enough but busy working. I would for sure visit again , especially when I can enjoy my drink outside.

Good croissant but outrageous prices, rather bland mocha, and extremely slow service. The chairs aren't particularly comfortable and circulation is quite tight. Yet another overpriced trendy destination. Sorry, not for me.

Cozy spot tucked away off the road. Parking out front. Clean, modern bar with artful coffee and pastries. Of the big coffee chains, intelligentsia reigns supreme, in my opinion. And this may be my favorite spot of theirs I've tried.

I'm a fan on Intelligentsia and was happy when I found their second location in the Boston area. This one is so different from the one in the financial district, yet has such a cool vibe as well. Coffee is good as always, service fast and friendly, they also sell pastries and some merchandising. There's seating inside and a few seats outside. It can be easily overseen from the street, watch out for the sign (picture). Nice spot to get some caffeine in your system on a trip to Fresh pond or Mt Auburn!

Coffee is ok but miserable hipster baristas really can kill your mood. Nobody smiles in there. I had one of them try to tell me another party was I front of me after I had been standing there. That’s it, I’m out! Even dunks employees wish you a nice day

Finally got to check out this coffee shop. Spot on with the espresso and pourover service. There limelight is interesting for sure with an acuired taste. A little on the steep end for prices but right in line for being a major city coffee shop. Worth the detour. Went home with two bags of beans and bunch of gear and an empty wallet, but totally worth it supporting a local and expanding coffee shop.
The only reason I give this a 4 and not a 5 is because of the higher pricing. Ive been to some excellent coffee roasters in major cities with competitive pricing.

Friendly staff, Perfect latte, free wifi & a few parking spots. Good place for reading or meeting a friend. Sometimes it can be difficult to find seat but it’s worth it.

Nice place, the latte good but the pastries its not fresh at all.
Little bit expensive for what we got
2 latte and 2 croissant we paid 25$ 😏

Staff just rude enough so you can tell they know a lot about coffee

Exceptional modern coffee shop. I’m not the biggest fan of their brewed coffee but their espresso is phenomenal. The space is cozy but offers lots of seating. Pastries aren’t made in house but always fresh and delicious. Small parking lot but easy to find spots on Mt. Auburn.
