Baked and Wired is not only a sweet tooth’s wonderland, it is also a coffee lover’s paradise. Located in Georgetown, this bakery has a room dedicated to just coffee orders. While the coffee portion of the bakery is small, the quality of the coffee is not compromised. They serve coffee from three different (and amazing) roasters:…

Maria Castaña- Asunción, Paraguay
The Maria Castaña location I went to was one of the most pleasant, tiny cafés I have ever seen. There were tiny water fountains right outside and it was modeled after a french café. The space was pretty open and small, but the fancy decor made it very appealing. I asked for a cafe con…
Terzetto- Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil
Terzetto was a simple, dainty cafe and bakery contrasting the hectic, urban area of Ipanema just a few blocks from the beach. They had indoor and outdoor seating with bright furniture contrasting the white walls and floors. When I first walked into this space, I was unsure of it because there were very few people…
Original American Coffee Cake- São Paulo, SP, Brazil
Normally when in a foreign country I wouldn’t go to a place with “American” included in the name, but this restaurant was recommended to me by a friend. Really there was not anything very American about this place at all! The cakes were made with Brazilian fruits and the coffee was also Brazilian. The location…
Casa Mathilde- São Paulo, SP, Brazil
Casa Mathilde has to be one of the most hectic bakery/cafés I have ever been to. This place was so full of people, the second I walked in I started sweating. Apparently, Casa Mathilde is a super popular and famous Portuguese bakery in São Paulo. I only found out about it through another coffee fanatic…
Padoca do Mani- São Paulo, SP, Brazil
From the moment I arrived at Padoca do Mani last Sunday morning, I fell in love with the tiny bakery/coffee shop. Mostly known for their various types of breads and their coffee, this place was packed all morning. Padoca do Mani is the place to be for brunch. It has a really cool atmosphere, colorful…
The Danish Pastry House-Medford, MA
Located right by the Tufts University campus, The Danish Pastry House is a pretty minimalistic coffee shop that is quite popular amongst people in the area. This coffee shop is one of the places I consider people sacrificing coffee for food. The coffee is not bad, it just is not anything outstanding. The lattes are good…
Pie in the Sky- Woods Hole, MA
Pie in the Sky is a classic place for people in the Falmouth/Woods Hole area to go for a cup of joe or a snack. The first thing I notice every time I walk in (besides the long line) is the coffee roaster in the middle of the inside part of the cafe. Pie in…
Mariposa Bakery-Central Square, Cambridge, MA
Mariposa is one of the more simple coffee shops I have been to. Right after walking in the rustic feel calmed me down. The colors in this shop are dark contributing to the tranquil atmosphere of Mariposa. Most of the people there were meeting friends to catch up or grabbing coffee before work. I was…
Tatte Bakery-Kendall Square, Cambridge, MA
When it comes to Tatte’s coffee, I may be a little biased since I am a huge fan of Stumptown Roasters, which is served at this bakery. The latte has smooth foam and bold espresso which was comforting on the cold snowy day I first went to Tatte. Unfortunately, the iced coffee is pretty mediocre…
Flour Bakery- Central Square, Cambridge, MA
When I first walked into Flour I was overwhelmed by the amount of people in the bakery right after work. Not only does Flour have baked goods and coffee, but it also has a variety of salads, sandwhiches, and other meals. Since the food looked delicious, I was not expecting the coffee to be outstanding….
4A Coffee-Brookline, MA
After a pretty dull morning, my trip to 4A Coffee brightened my day. I first tried a cafe au lait. The first sip made my eyes widen. The drink was suave and tasty and made me want more. Next I tried a latte, which had a strong, but sweet espresso taste and was perfectly balanced…
