Cafe Iterum

Been coming here consistently for over a year. Coffee is dialed in consistently and the special seasonal drinks are well curated. Food is always delicious and flavorful. Perfect little spot in East Boston!

Went here because I needed to kill sometime before an airport pick-up. The atmosphere is so nice. It's got a student / study Cafe vibe and it's great to hunger down and get some work done while enjoying their delicious beverages and snacks. Everything is prep fresh, I got a avocado toast sandwich and I saw them cutting and mashing those avocados. Their drinks are phenomenal, I recommend getting the large because it is LARGE it comes in a 700ml Mason jar, I got the Iced Macha latte while I worked away at one of the table spots and was easily ably to plug in my laptop and get to work!

I absolutely love this place! It's perfect for any time of the day—whether you're grabbing a coffee, enjoying a delicious meal, or just soaking in the ambiance. The coffee is excellent, the food is amazing, and the atmosphere is ideal whether you're alone, studying, or spending time with friends or colleagues. If you're in Eastie, this spot is a must!

While exploring Maverick Square, I stumbled on Cafe Iterum. It's right next to the Maverick T exit (the one on the harbor side of the station, not the exit in the middle of the square). This light- and plant-filled space features 14 seats with ample power for a working lunch. There is additional outdoor seating when the weather is nice. Two kiosks speed up ordering, but the staff at the register cheerfully took this Luddite's order. Service was gracious--everything hospitality should be--and the atmosphere is relaxing and whimsical with playful condiment labels ("Mrs. White Sugar in the ballroom with the candlestick"!) A bookshelf of board games and books ads to the cozy feel. I had the smashed beet bowl and let me say I hate beets but I loved this! Greens, crispy chickpeas, roasted broccoli and eggplant "bacon" all come together beautifully under an herbal vinaigrette. The menu is fairly extensive and offers a few gluten free options, as well as a good selection of vegetarian plates. The cafe brews Intelligentsia and sells beans in the standard 12 oz bags as well as 5 lbs bags for those who want to stock up. This cafe implements a 10% service fee which explains why the POS tipping screen defaults to 0-5-10% According to the receipt, the cafe is facing some rough times, there is a Go Fund Me to raise capital, including a gift card match on donations over $100. I would say it's well worth supporting this gem in East Boston!

I come here often to work, and the food and vibes never miss. The latte and matcha latte are both delicious, and everything I’ve tried, from the patty melt to the burger, has been consistently amazing. I also love the natural, laid-back setting. The owner is always kind and creates such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. One of my favorite spots, hands down.
