My boyfriend and I went to this place for the first time today and it is the BEST coffee we have EVER had and I have gone to many coffee places in my life. This place is number one for us. We will definitely be returning for some more amazing coffee. I got a large mocha coffee and it is smooth, rich, strong (I love strong coffee), and full of great flavor. I didn’t even need to add any sugar or cream, I only had milk added. Also got a chocolate to go, that was the cherry on top!!!

My partner and I's favorite coffee we've ever tried (especially for the price). Drop in and buy bags when in the area I'm thinking of trying their subscription since I can't get enough.

This is a great coffee spot. I'm so glad I discovered Recreo. I can't wait until I'm back in the area to visit again. They roast the coffee in shop and have the story of where the beans come from on the wall. The flavored coffee drinks are not overly sweet and taste balanced.

Recreo is the perfect small local coffee shop. Friendly staff and best oat milk latte in Boston.

Delicious coffee (I tried the iced coffee) and very friendly service. The atmosphere is colorful and peaceful - perfect place to study, read, or have a coffee chat.

One of the best coffee that I’ve ever had! Cappuccino and espresso were strong and tasty. Service was warm & welcoming and the shop itself was relaxing to sit to in. The background story behind the store is unique and I don’t think there are many or any other places that import their homegrown coffee beans Looking forward to my next visit!

I hate giving such a low rating because this place does have the best coffee around, and I will continue to get coffee here. However, there is something wrong with their almond milk. My girlfriend is lactose intolerant and the last time I ordered her a winter specialty latte ($6) with almond milk (+$0.75). It was horrible. Literally undrinkable and we tossed it. The almond milk tasted like bad water and it masked the flavor of the latte. It is unacceptable that we paid almost $7 (including the $0.75 up charge) for almond milk that ruined the drink. However, everything else here is great. We get our daily coffee beans here, and I got a peppermint mocha (with regular milk) that was delicious. If they change their almond milk to something better, this will be a 5 star review.

My Dad loves coffee and for his birthday I bought him some of the Don Carlos coffee for him to brew at home. He was raving about how wonderful it was and flew through it. Next time I go home, I'll be bringing him double what I brought him the first time. The baristas are very nice and work quickly and diligently. I love their hot chocolate as well as their coffee drinks. It is a beautiful coffee shop with tucked away outdoor seating in a cozy and quiet spot.

Great locally-owned coffee shop with friendly staff and beautiful back patio seating area. And the owner’s family actually grows their own coffee beans on their farm! I don’t think I can say that about any other coffee shop I’ve been to!

This is by far the best coffee shop in town. The coffee is beyond good, however, the music in the mornings is a bit outdated and makes me sleepy. Frank Sinatra, Kenny G and enya are a little too slow for my taste. I notice in the afternoon the energy is different and more lively. The music is up beat and compliments their working energy and the coffee. Theres a cute patio in the back too! Great shop to hangout at!

Best coffee in town! The owners are very nice and it’s great to see then at the cafe. They roast their own beans in house from their family farm in Nicaragua. They have an amazing outdoor space that is tucked away in the alley.

Cute coffee place focused on coffee from a single family owned farm. Good coffee with pastries and rotating specials. I tried the horchata latte on ice and it was great! Scones and sticky buns were great

Delicious coffee, staff and owners are great. There's a patio around the building you might miss if you didn't know it was there.
