This place looks so cute on the outside. If your in a rush this is not the spot for you we orders 2 coffees 20+ minutes to get. It’s very cramped in there even not not to busy. Once you get your coffees they are pretty good. The pastries are ok we got a chocolate chip cookie we had high hopes. Turns out it’s vegan. The prices are steep

The coffee you get here is incredible, and the baristas are also friendly. They offer barista training classes every month, and they provide some tips to make your home coffee game strong! It’s usually crowded on week days in the AM, their Avena latte is a must try (slightly sweet with orange and spicy flavor), cappuccino is also great. Glad to find this gem as it’s just a couple of miles away from my apartment!

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

I've had coffee here many times, it's a really good coffee shop in Belmont to get a high quality latte. I've moved away since and I miss it.

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.

I really liked their ice mocha! It has the perfect amount of sweetness and the chocolate tasted like really good quality chocolate. I wish they had some softer seating, but that's my only complaint! Lovely place they have there.

Relative to Watertown, it’s the best coffee shop for around 20 miles. Baristas are friendly and seem to love making coffee. If you come late in the morning, you might not be able to get the pastries you want - but otherwise has everything you want in a coffee shop. I recommend the avena latte! Nicely spiced and just slightly sweet.

The chai was SO INSANELY SWEET it was undrinkable and I had to dump it out. I don’t understand how a coffee shop can’t figure out the correct sugar:tea ratio. It’s really not that difficult. What a disappointment

The chocolate and plain croissants looked great, but were stale and had no crispness I think they might have stored the croissants incorrectly so they lost their crunch

Horrible experience. I paid $6 for a cold coffee with light ice. The serving size was laughable. I'll never go back

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

I’ve been craving good coffee for my pourover and the beans here are excellent. The baristas also are a wealth of knowledge if you have any questions!
