Faro Café

What an awesome coffee shop! Read on to find out why: 1. The interior is quaint and cozy, but oddly, there’s plenty of room for everybody to have space to enjoy their drink. 2. Staff was engaged and I enjoyed the conversation that we had. 3. The coffee tasted good. I’ve been to many coffee shops that look great but the coffee just doesn’t get you full experience that you hoped for. Good coffee here. 4. If you’re feeling generous, they have a bulletin board where you can buy a coffee for someone and leave it for them for later. I decided to do this and I think it’s an awesome addition to this space. All around well worth visiting highly recommend check out the photos to get a sense of the space.

This hip bohemian cafe is a great place to hang out, relax, and enjoy a great drink. We got two hot chai teas, which were delicious not too sweet or spicy. Love the decor of photos and other collage-like materials. A somewhat eccentric collection of international board games were in the corner near the counter. Limited indoor seating, but there is additional seating outside. Service was fast and friendly when we visited.

Paid $9 for a very tiny (but very delicious) latte. So when I was leaving I wanted to get another one and one for my boyfriend to go. The barista made my drink hot on accident and then gave it away to a random for free (I wanted the free messed up latte) and then when she made my oat milk latte, she poured a little out in a cup so she could taste it and make sure it was oat milk… she drank like $1.50 worth of my latte. I will not be returning

I had my best coffee in Boston here. Perfect extraction, temp, and milk texture. Wonderful atmosphere for reading, sipping, people watching, and kissing. Things also just taste better when the barista wears a nice suede vest + neckerchief. 💯

I love the idea of a laptop free coffee shop! The cafe was well-appointed with a nice cushioned area for seating. I tend to not like the light roast drip coffee you typically get at more trendy coffee shops but theirs was lovely, smooth, and not too acidic for my tastes. They might also consider banning networking and informational interview chats among their patrons, particularly those patrons affiliated with Harvard, to curate even better vibes. But I don’t know how enforcement of such a policy would work logistically.
