User Reviews

I have had the best chicken pesto sandwich here. It’s so good that every time I go, I don’t even see the other options and just go ahead and order it. The owners are extremely friendly and kind. Great conversation with them every time I visit. As a student, they give you a sandwich card. After 10 sandwiches you get a free sandwich of your choice. It’s the best cafe in Waltham.

The cafe from the outside is wonderfully inviting with nice porch and plenty of outdoor seating. However, the inside looks like an 80s cafeteria/deli. Minimal decor, and a few rows of long tables and chairs. They sell Dietz and Watson meats and I assume cheeses, but the signs are pretty faded and old looking. Great selection of chips and cold drinks and the coffee station looked like it was still set up for full service even though it was 1:30pm, and there were still several muffins and cookies available. The lady making sandwiches was so kind and when asked what she suggested she looked over at her station and said with excitement “the chicken pesto panini”. It was delicious, but the pesto was mayonnaise based I’m pretty sure, not complaining bc I love mayo, just surprising. She also offered me a sandwich card, 10 punches and you get a free sandwich. Very sweet deal!

I love this place! Their food is amazing and they are so friendly. The deck is my favorite place to eat lunch during my break.

The sandwich here is amazing, especially the bread. Really like the BLT and south street chicken club~

The owners are so cute and super sweet! They opened up 15 mins early for me to grab a bagel while I was in a rush. Came back a few hours later for a tuna melt and it was amazing!

Great sandwiches and coffee and overall a very nice place. Would definitely recommend.

I deliver to this area 2-3 times a week and when I do I will stop here! They have great fresh coffee and good sandwiches. The owner is very friendly

Incredible sandwiches, try the pesto chicken sandwich for sure! Great place for a quick lunch around Brandeis University! Good environment to sit and work too.
