Cafe Siete

A lovely, lovely place full of lovely people; regulars, less regulars, and people just dropping in. Wonderful place to sit for a while and work, read, chat, meet on the way to the pond, or just drop in to say hello. Amazing coffee, complex flavors you can actually taste. Amazing mocha, good chocolate and not overly sweet or milky. Amazing macchiato, strong but crisp. A great place to get beans, with a rotating selection of beans to buy so you can try different things and all of them are great. Jeb (owner), Perry, Tommy, and Chloe (baristas) are wonderful people and it's always a pleasure to see them!

Best cafe in the city. Coffee without the frills. Just really really really good espresso drinks. The two seats at the counter rival any of your preferred seats at your favorite bar around town.

Cute little coffee shop in Jamaica Plain! Felt super neighborhood-y and everyone seemed to know each other in there. The coffee was delicious and meticulously made, I had an iced Americano. Coffee was well priced and the vibes inside were great. I would highly recommend this spot!

cafe siete is such a gem in jamaica plain. definitely my favorite place in the neighborhood to stop by during my work break. the owner jeb is very personable and always makes you feel welcome. he makes his drinks with care and they are very high quality. relaxing and intimate atmosphere. highly recommend!

This is an adorable little cafe with a very neat and chique atmosphere. It's got great coffee and milk options, including soy milk (yay!) and the owner is very knowledgeable and friendly! The mocha is delicious and not overly sweet!

If you like coffee, then you have to visit this place!!! Not many coffee shops can serve a real americano coffee, so you just drink what you been served. This coffee shop is indeed serves the best ever Americano!!!! Love this place and highly recommend to visit!!

The best coffee in town, for sure. This cafe has an amazing European atmosphere with top notch cappuccino that has complex flavors - definitely not your typical brew that often has too much milk froth. We absolutely love this place! The only thing that could possibly make it better is if they added fresh squeezed orange juice, or at least some good bottled juice options.

A great new spot for those who want truly delicious coffee. Every item on the menu seems to have a lot of care and effort behind it. We've stopped in a few times now—for cold brew, espresso, and iced tea—and each has been distinctly excellent. Worth a trip across town for a nice beverage and a stroll around the Pond.

The owner is really nice! You walk in and immediately get carried away by the amazing smell of coffee. I got a latte and a croissant. Good pastries but don't expect something that tastes like it was made morning of.

This was such an underwhelming experience. I came in because of the good reviews, but the coffee was bitter and the beans tasted stale. I also ordered a croissant and asked for it to be warmed up before I paid. He said nothing at the time. After I got it, he told me they don't have a microwave, so it couldn't be warmed. If he had mentioned that earlier, I wouldn't have ordered a cold, hard cheese croissant. On top of that, he was very short with us and unfriendly. Definitely won't be coming back.

One of the creamiest cortados I've had in a long time! Milk was frothed to perfection and the coffee was so tasty!

This is a cute little coffee shop with barely any seating. We popped in after a walk at Jamaica pond. I was thirsty so I strayed from my usual order and got a lemon ginger iced tea. It was unsweetened and the ginger was perfectly punchy. My boyfriend wanted to try the cold brew but they ran out since it was an unseasonably warm that day. Instead they offered to make him an iced Americano which I think was a blessing in disguise because it was delicious, better than any cold brew I've ever tasted. Anyway, cute place, great service, highly recommend!

Popped in here on a walk on a hot day - I was a little disappointed they didn't have iced coffee (cold brew only), but was inspired by some of their teas and was thrilled to find out they had some that weren't sweetened (iced drinks are so often super sweet). My husband and i tried two different teas and both were delicious - i'll have to come back!

Always enjoy having a cup of great Barrington coffee and sharing conversations with Jeb, the owner. Although small, the space is comfortable and welcoming.

I have been living in Jamaica Plain for twenty years and this place is a godsend! The coffee and tea are awesome, but it's the environment that sets Cafe Siete apart. People from all walks of life in our community, students, artists, academics, construction workers etc all come in. Sometimes it's really quiet, sometimes eveyone is talking and laughing, sometimes there is a line, sometimes I'm the only one there, but somehow it just always morphs into whatever it needs to be, which is kind of remarkable given that most small spaces are not that versatile. The owner Jeb an awesome guy, he's passionate about being a barista but has had so many different work and living experiences all over the would that he can relate and talk to anyone. He knows the community well since he used to co-own the flower shop around the corner. The employees Tommy and Peri are amazing. They both are pursuing artistic careers but they are as dedicated to the business as if they were co-owners and great to talk with. I'm prob better friends with l than people I have known at other JP businesses for ten times as long. I am trying to cut down on my drinking and I feel so at home at Cafe Siete that I go there and have a couple lattes rather then to the local watering holes now a lot of the time so it's been very helpful beyond the great coffee and company! While it's true people live in JP because there is so much community, there was still obviously a void that is being fulfilled by Jeb and his team.

Love it. They have a KvdW Mirage, beautifully calibrated and pulling tasty, brilliant shots. The sticky bun was quite nice too. I had an espresso, then another, and then a cappuccino to go. Total pleasure to my morning in JP. I'll be back next time I'm visiting!

This is the new spot that just took over the old Tokava location. They use Barrington coffee and I believe are the only shop in this part of town that does. I got the cold brew and it was a bit bitter - not something I'd come back for. I was interested in trying the pastries but they looked a step down from the quality Tokava used to have so I opted against it. Overall, seems like a fine shop given our lack of quality coffee in JP. Third Cliff will remain my mainstay but I may at some point in the future try their espresso drinks here.
