3 Little Figs

This is probably my favorite place in Somerville. The staff is always incredibly nice. The food is always freshly prepared and tastes amazing. Strawberry jam bars, blueberry scones, apple cider muffins, AND MOLASSES COOKIES (when available) are great. Can't go wrong with an egg, cheese & sausage pepper biscuit.

This is just a cute little place. I love prosciutto/goat cheese/arugula/fig jam combinations, so the Market sandwich is the way to go for sweet-savory or focaccia lovers. (Also in my opinion their focaccia is far superior of a breading than any other.) Lattes are not bad - fairly sweet though I appreciate the maple brown sugar & soy options! The only thing is it’s tricky to get seats the later you come since space is so limited inside, so plan accordingly :)

I never really get to come here due to the hours not aligning with my job, but I always hear great things! The first time, I tried a pumpkin spice iced coffee and a donut muffin, both of which were great. The second time, I decide to order my usual drink, matcha. I knew as soon as they called my name, I knew that the matcha would not be good. The color was not nearly vibrant enough, and all I can taste is oatmilk. I’m disappointed at the quality of the drink considering the cost, but I also understand that coffee forward places do not usually excel at other drinks (esp matcha). I would warn matcha connoisseurs to avoid fig’s matcha and either order something else, or order somewhere else. I’ll likely still return, but definitely not for anything other than muffins and/or coffee sadly.

Absolutely deserving of the Best Cafe in Somerville title! The line can be daunting but the staff work hard to keep it flowing and delivery high quality food and drinks! I doubt I’ll ever be disappointed on any future visits. Food: The drinks were very refreshing and a great wake up jolt of caffeine. I was intrigued by the espresso soda and I was not disappointed. It was such a nice blend of fruity flavors that slide perfectly into a familiar coffee taste. The sweet ricotta toast and the egg cheddar sandwich were amazing! The sourdough and ciabatta were the stars and their great bready textures made for perfect vehicles. Service: The staff worked like a well oiled machine but still offered great hospitality! Atmosphere: The popularity does cause the cafe to be busy but everyone was very

I’m convinced this place has the best blueberry scone that exists in somerville, having done a comprehensive survey. The coffee is great and pastries are remarkably cheap. No laptops which makes for a more wholesome vibe. There’s always dogs and babies here :).
