Beau BlinderSeptember 11, 2016You can't go wrong. Gracenote is hands down the best coffee shop in Boston. Whether you're ordering a coffee or espresso drink, these guys know how to make it perfectly every time.
ClaudioApril 18, 2016Killer single origin espressos, double washed process with very citrus and smoked notes. A very friendly staff and great location. They regularly have a featured drink, ask for it.
Cosy, stylish interior. Come here for great espresso. They offer several coffees for both espresso drinks and pour over that they source and roast themselves. Worth coming back as selection changes.- Awesome coffee shop just off Chinatown. Espresso drinks are all excellent, as is the daily drip option. Good place to get fresh roasted beans. It’s tiny though so not a great place to work or hang out
- Ryan DawidjanDecember 24, 2015Amazing place - love the espresso and featured coffee. San is the man when it comes to coffee and hospitality
Pinar OzcanNovember 19, 2016Very friendly baristas. Had a good talk here. Definitely worth trying. Go catch the sunrise at Boston Harbor and get a coffee afterwards.. pure joy.
Expertly made coffee here. Best I've found in Boston so far. Friendly staff. Take away beans they will grind to your order.
Possibly the only coffee shop that served espresso with tonic water during the summer. The espresso shots are perfectly pulled every time. Generally great coffee, but expensive whole bean bags.
KaitlinJune 27, 2017If you're looking for carefully crafted coffee that's locally roasted, this is the spot! Had a delicious iced espresso here. Also, the vegan banana bread was perfect!
Aleksander MeyerAugust 22, 2016They have the best cold brew I've ever had. There's no seating and very little food, though, so it's best to come here if you're just planning to grab a drink and go.
Hal MackinsOctober 21, 2015Phenomenal coffee any way you pour it. Nitro cold brew is my default, but you really can't go wrong here.
Faris IbraheemJune 19, 2016Get the nitro cold brew. It's a shame that they serve it in small cups. Grab a bag of their freshly roasted beans, too.
Quaint little coffee shop. Their grinder has the most even distribution of particles in the planet. Meaning, the best espresso you'll ever have.
Chris BernardiFebruary 19, 2016Cozy little spot where you are always going to get an outstanding cup of coffee from knowledgable and friendly baristas.
They usually have specials, so make sure to check those out before ordering! My favorite is the cereal milk flat white.- Brendon SmithMay 13, 2018Gracenote is a specialty coffee roaster with a small storefront in Chinatown. The espresso and nitro cold brew are phenomenal.
Get the cold brew on nitro. It will change your life.
If you're only going to have one iced coffee in your entire life, try Gracenote's.
Karen EulerJanuary 13, 2017Drink your excellent cortado standing up, in a lovely atmosphere across from Chinatown Park, then get on with your day.
Cold brew is smooth and packs big, complex flavor. Service is friendly and keeps the line moving.
Gotta pair a coffee with a pastery here. The strawberry oat scone is 👍
Wow, just awesome! Espresso for here and nitro cold brew to go.
- Best coffee in Boston - the espresso tonic is fantastic
Best coffee in greater Boston. Try anything that sounds good – you can’t go wrong.
- Get the nitro cold brew - the texture is unreal and it tastes amazing
Gianna NebbiaJuly 25, 2016Cute little spot. Their menu is not too extensive but it gets the job done- Might be the only place in Boston that serves an espresso shot in iced tonic water. Coffee aficionados rejoice!
Best espresso in the world. Also mind blowing nitro cold brew
Terence ChanJune 5, 2016Pretty pricey for the coffee. It's totally hipster and their iced Americano was ok. Ogawa still the best! 3/5- Wonderful coffee and atmosphere, say hello to San if he is in the shop!
San from The Coffee Trike. Their passion for coffee shines through!
TJ IngleFebruary 19, 2016I just had a cup of regular coffee, it was really good not bitter or burnt.
