Back Story: 

The Cambridge area has so many wonderful cafés and we couldn’t include all of them in this calendar, so how did we choose? Corky and I reconnected on a neighborhood listserv conversation about best cafés in the area and we decided to meet over coffee, (of course). With my passion for cafés and urban sketching and Corky’s expertise in all things food and coffee, we listed our favorites based on those criteria, ambiance, plus our own idiosyncratic predilections.

Cafés included: Simon's (Cambridge), Andala Café (Cambridge), Café Pamplona (Cambridge), Hi-Rise Bread (Cambridge), Broadsheet Coffee (Cambridge), Revival (Somerville), Flour Bakery, Loyal Nine (Cambridge), Intelligentsia (Watertown), Tatte (Cambridge), 1369 Coffee House(Cambridge), Café Zing (Somerville), Gracenote (Boston), Ogawa Coffee (Boston)
