Blue Bottle Coffee

I'm not a coffee chain person, but bluebottle has one of the best locations in the square, with more natural light than any other place you could gather. It might not be your vibe - think modern art museum versus cozy/hygge (go to Faro for that around the corner!)

Can't beat the NOLA, and I'd suggest adding a shot of espresso to the yuzu fizz to make a Japanese spin on an espresso tonic...

Coffee was solid; well extracted single origin espresso though it was a bit pricey. I spilled my shot on the counter (completely my fault) and they pulled another for me; they were extremely nice and understanding. The atmosphere was nice with a lot of places to sit and chat or work.

Decided to stop by this morning to grab a iced match latte with oat milk. Delicious drink, also love that they use paper straws and cups. The cafe is really nice (with minimalist decor) and well-lit. There is a decent amount of seating and good wifi, so it's a great place to study. It's not too crowded or busy on a Friday morning, would recommend checking out!

Love the vibes of the store! It’s in Harvard’s campus and the staff is very friendly. We went there before the store was going to be closed, and the staff treated us some scone and muffins, which was totally unexpected.
If I were Harvard student, I would definitely have come here very often!

Blue Bottle is my #1 coffee shop! The Harvard Square location is in a quieter area on an un-assuming little corner. The space is clean and well-lit with gentle lighting and a great place to study or read. Highly recommend the New Orleans Coldbrew - smooth, slightly sweet, and always good (even on a winter day)! The only downside is the (16 Oz. for $6), so definitely a "treat myself," (at least for me), but always worth it!

Friendly and bustling coffee joint that is within minutes of Harvard Square. We ordered a regular drip coffee and a cafe latte that were both very good. The staff is friendly and the prices are what you would expect from a trendy coffee place. We’ve been to the Blue Bottle location at the Ferry Building in San Francisco and this was not as busy as that location. Seating is hard to come by but you can probably find a table if you spy on others who look like they are packing up to leave. We’ll be back. Welcome to Boston, Blue Bottle!

Lucky Harvard students! I thought about the days I had handed over to a bottle, the nights I can't remember, the mornings I slept through, all the time spent running from myself—coffee please! Premium priced but well worth it if you want to spoil yourself. Come to the 6ix!

I love blue bottle so much!!!! The sweet latte is bomb

Pleasant caffe latte w/ oat milk, very hearty. The coffee is smooth but strong. Really cool interior with bars and small tables to get work done, but definitely not cozy due to bright white and light wood interior palette.

The coffee roaster that’s definitely worth to visit and pay for 1-2 bucks more. Unbeatable quality coffee. My favor are is the Sweet Latte with Oat milk and New Orleans flavored iced coffee. This is my favorite grab n go coffee place in Cambridge. But hey you can’t really go wrong with any choices here.

I visited the shop on 2/2/2018, one day after the opening. Baristas and cashiers are nice and coffee is good. The café is stylish, too.

Love blue bottle. This is in the heart of Harvard among the campus buildings. Try their cold Brew. These guys are coffee artists. Love their passion, love the clean white decor, love their coffee.

Great authentic coffee place to go in Harvard that is off the beaten path. Do yourself a favor, skip Starbucks, and go here for quality espresso and a great selection of pastries and breakfast sandwiches.

I just had my first 10$ cup of coffee- the Panama Finca Santa Teresa Zorro Gesha. It was worth it :)

Intense, fairly dark roasted, but balanced and flavorful cappucino. Among the best I've had anywhere. I think it cost $5.25, which seems reasonable for a coffee of this quality. The default is oat milk (they ask if that's ok first) and a paper cup; I asked for regular milk and a ceramic cup. Bright, pleasant space. I'll seek out their cafes in the future.

Coffee was great! Had a good balance of herbal and fruity flavors! Perhaps when its less busy it will be a good place to chill and relax. But come and go is fine too! Its definitely not your big chain coffee joint, so don't come in with that expectation.

Great little coffee shop! Staff was friendly. Good & strong coffee pick me up while exploring Harvard Square.

In love with this place.
I recommend the Hot Nola coffee with oat milk 😍😍 (it doesn’t feel so caffeinated)

Unfortunately they only offer the small size for those.

Blue Bottle Coffee serves the best coffee in town, and for a coffee shop, that's all they need to earn a five star review.

I had a cortado, which was excellent, and a cappuccino, which was also excellent. The minimalist decor is beautiful, and the staff were friendly and energetic.

This place does have some flaws, but not enough to take off a star. I had a disappointing cinnamon coffee cake, and the music was too loud at times. The prices were steep, but you get what you pay for. Nobody's perfect.

I'd gladly go back to Blue Bottle. They've got the best coffee, and everything else is icing on the cake. Or, should I say, foam on the latte.

Love this place! Good food, drinks and decor! Super friendly staff!
I just wish there was outdoor seating.
