I have lived here for over a test and just went to Darwin's for the first time today. It was fantastic! I ordered the Kenway, which was delicious, and they were really fast.
Em AveryAugust 5, 2018Often need to be patient to get a seat, but has to-go if you're not able to wait. Gluten free bread is home-made - if they run out, ask for a sandwich as a salad. Try the Kyoto coffee and the chai.- Patrick HaneyOctober 2, 2013If you want one of the daily specials, or a salad, you can ask someone behind the counter and then head straight to the register and skip the usually long wait for delicious sandwiches.Upvoted Feb 6
Adam SigelSeptember 2, 2018The Memorial Drive is the best breakfast sandwich you’ll get anywhere. Over medium eggs, bacon, avocado, and sharp cheddar. Get it on toasted sourdough.
Shawn McCuskerJune 29, 2014A little out of the way but worth the walk. I will definitely come back. Great sandwiches and an awesome local coffee shop vibe. Got work done, are great food.
Jonathan HertelAugust 15, 2014Delicious sandwiches and baked goods with a cozy and comfortable atmosphere. The Mount Auburn location also has a nice selection of beer, wine, and local ciders.
The Hubbard Park sandwich is super fresh and flavorful. Get here before the afternoon if you want the delicious 7-grain bread.
- James MarshallDecember 28, 2015Excellent sandwiches and breakfast. Clunky ordering coffee on one side and sandwiches on the other, but no big deal.
Lindsay D'AndreaNovember 11, 2015Be sure to browse the amazing wine selection..exclusive to the mt. Auburn location. One of my favorite places to go for a bottle.
Always been a huge fan of their sandwiches ( Hubbard Park, Sparks, Longfellow, Clubber Lang) but recently discovered their soups. I've had 5+ varieties now and they're all amazing. Give it a try.
Jacquie SandbergMay 16, 2013Power cords! Oh happy day! Free dog biscuits. Get a Story sandwich, a chai latte, and enjoy the people watching. No cell phones. Writing this clandestinely.
Jonathan YuDecember 27, 2015Huron sandwich is a must try. Smoked salmon, tomatoes, onion, cream cheese and fried egg on a sourdough bread!
Rob AtkinsonMay 2, 2016Delicious sandwiches, though line can get long and it is slow. They serve breakfast sandwiches til 3pm on weekends
Serious EatsFebruary 1, 2014Reliable homemade soups, sandwiches, and pastries at this coffee shop near Harvard Square
CityRover MediaJanuary 5, 2011Try the “Mem. Drive” breakfast sandwich (eggs, bacon, avocado, and cheddar), or the “Hubbard Park” for lunch, with a generous amount of hummus, avocado, thin apple slices, carrots, sprouts & cheddar. Read more
The Kenway is the bomb. This location is a bit smaller than the Cambridge st one, so if you have a large party, head there. Sandwiches are the same, but named differently for local streets.
BikaboutApril 16, 2014A uniquely multi-purpose rest stop, Darwin's scores very highly in the breakfast/coffee dimension, the lunch/sandwich dimension, AND on the beer/wine/basic grocery dimension.
Rosie MartinezOctober 4, 2014Great atmosphere for studying. Good coffee, an abundance of tea, and delicious sandwiches.- So cozy. Great sandwiches. Amazing tea selection and really friendly staff.
Karine HsuMay 9, 2016really any of the sandwiches! Can be hard to find a place to sit during lunchtime
Love people watching here! My new favorite sandwich is the Foster. Highly recommend especially if you like pickles.
Ali Al-SaeedDecember 15, 2018I had a Latte which was good. However I didn’t enjoy the cinnamon roll as it was a bit dry and crunchy
Natie BOctober 2, 2011Seating can be tough to get- people tend to "camp out". Get the Mt Auburn, Longfellow, or the storey. Their made to order specials are great too.- Try the Prosciutto Parm Scone. Tucked away on the far end of the pastries but not to be missed.
Lauren ChristopherOctober 19, 2017The best Darwin's in Cambridge! Best seating, best food and best service:)
A SApril 14, 2018We had the sandwich and the soup, and we could barely eat it. And hard to find a space if you want you eat in. Staff wasn't nice/friendly, not sure why.
Sticky buns, mochas, any tea, any sandwich-everything is good
- Grab a sangwich, all of which are named after nearby streets--I dig the Mt. Auburn--then head just up the road to Longfellow Park to munch.
Rhonda MSeptember 2, 2013Most amazing breakfast sandwiches, and the surliest counter staff that ever could be.
Taroon AminSeptember 25, 2011The JFK burritos are a bit juicy and drip if you don't eat it correctly. But great otherwise
Ville KeranenApril 10, 2012One of the best cappuccino I've had in the USA, highly recommended place.
Margaret MyersMarch 20, 2014Pretty uninspired vegan options. Never enough seating. Lines are mayhem despite best efforts.
