George Howell Coffee

I love coffee places with in-house roasters. Fresh and mild taste of coffee. I loved my mocha not at a chocolaty note. Foam was thick and well done! Bakery eats were good as usually nothing great about it. But coffee is a must try!

If you want to have a good coffee in Boston, you must visit Georhe Howell Coffee. Coffee is hiqh quality, creamy and right temperature. If you love hot cocoa, this is your best option! Bakery is delicoous too! The place is at Newtonville, a nice town worth visiting when coming to Boston!

George Howell was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Specialty Coffee Association of America in 1996, for having raised specialty coffee quality standards to a new level through his Massachusetts based company The Coffee Connection (1974 – 1994). He had grown The Coffee Connection into 24 company-owned stores in the Northeast, and sold his high-quality popular coffee company to Starbucks in 1994.

I used to go to the one in downtown crossing inside the Godfrey Hotel, but like this one more bc it’s not as busy and easier to find seating. Was able to sit here for a couple hours doing work without any loud noise bothering me. My go-to is the latte with almond milk and the server is very friendly and hospitable. Love this place and will definitely go back!

Very good coffee, and a great spot to buy new beans. They keep a large, fresh, and diverse retail section. They didn't have any food when I went, but if that's what you're coming here for that's your own mistake.

Best coffee I’ve ever had. If you’re in the area you absolutely need to try it.

Best pour over ever. Baristas seem to know what they are doing.
We had the Kenya pourover and cortado.

This is my favorite coffee roaster in Mass. This location is convenient- and the staff here is charming and always helpful.

George Howell Coffee sits back and watches Cafe Nero and Starbucks hiss and scratch at each other from afar. George is patient, and waits eagerly for their war to cause a rift in space time. Many lives will be lost, but the rift will allow experimentation on coffee that has been digested through different dimensions.

The people who support this place have their stakes in Multidimensional coffee poured over the remains of inferior franchises. But for now they are content with a damn fine maple whiskey latte.

Excellent coffee friendly staff and a small selection of good pastries. It’s a reliable place to get freshly roasted beans from a variety’s of countries.

Some of the menu is simple, but the coffee options are diverse, at George Howell Coffee. Named Taste years ago, the George Howell brand became something of a more popular coffee name amongst locals and internationals alike.

The drip coffee was a bit fruity the day I tried it, however, the roast and bean may vary depending on the day.

The coffeeshop does offer some food options, however, this is a place for a good cup of coffee, and some excellent tea.

Parking is generally available, but on busy days you will find it difficult. A parking lot behind the coffeeshop was recently demolished to put in housing, so be aware that parking space is even more limited.

Try their turmeric latte!

I was really craving a good hot chocolate and this did not disappoint! Definitely on the fancy side but it’s a perfect special treat

Absolutely awesome espresso and a wonderful environment in general. George Howell is one of my first stops every time I am in the city. Their chocolate chip cookies are fantastic as well.

I live a 15 minute walk from the center of town. I walked through fields and passed doggies to get to George Howell. It was a happy walk and my iced coffee hit the spot.
The staff at George Howell promptly took my order and asked me the most important question, "room for milk?"
For someone who was in quarantine the past week, this walk and quick social exchange hit the spot.
The weather was windy but warm. My five layers were enough -even too much.
The mid-day pick me up was a good idea. In 50 minutes i'll go back to Dunks.

Two shots of Espresso, mocha flavoring and almond milk. — > Best iced coffee I’ve had in Boston.

Great coffee, good baristas and you get a free coffee or espresso when you buy beans. Will definitely be our go to for the area!

George Howell coffee roasts some of my favorite coffees. I frequently buy beans for home use. I can't really comment on the quality of everything on the menu, but I found that they pull their espresso on the harsher side, the coffee cake is great, and the staff seems to know what they are doing with cappuccinos. I haven't had one there I'm a while, but I remember it being pretty good.

If you are going here to buy coffee for home, you won't be disappointed with the selection and variety. I have had great experience with the Nicaraguan coffees here.

The coffee is very good. The espresso drinks are well-made. The staff is friendly. They think a lot about coffee. They have some interesting flavored drinks that would be good for someone adventurous.

They make croissants and chocolate croissants fresh in the morning, and those are worth asking for.

It's a coffee shop with a good vibe, and a great addition to the neighborhood

This place has baristas that actually know how to make espresso drinks. The lattes are ready to drink right away, unlike most places where their baristas scold the heck out of their milk when frothing it. The price is a little expensive, but it’s worth it, amazing coffee. It makes me really sad to see Starbucks and Nero coffee open right around the corner, I hope people will continue to support a local, small business. I mean their coffee is better then any of those guys anyways. I always swing by to grab a coffee when I’m in Newtonville!

I loved this place! I have seen George Howell all over Boston, and in local shops, so when I was near one I had to stop in and I am glad I did. The coffee was absolutely fantastic, and the staff was so awesome. Highly recommend!
