A small, unpretentious cafe on Cambridge Street at the foot of Beacon Hill. It draws a mix of neighborhood regulars and workers from the nearby Massachusetts General Hospital complex — the kind of place where the staff knows the regulars' orders.
The menu covers coffee drinks, sandwiches, and light fare. Nothing fancy, but it's a reliable spot to sit down without the crowds that hit the more tourist-facing cafes along Charles Street. Good for a working lunch or a quiet coffee between sightseeing.
