Harvard Square deli/cafe dispensing a variety of sandwiches & daily specials in a casual setting.
"The Harvard Crimson has a look at the ongoing effort by former Darwin's employees to open a worker-owned cafe where the Darwin's shop on Cambridge Street once stood." - Erika Adams
"Some days we want the sandwich equivalent of Mad Max: Fury Road, and that’s when we head to All Star Sandwich Bar for sandwiches as excessive as guitar-shredding on a garbage truck with 215 speakers. Other times, we just want a more simple and utilitarian Sleepless in Seattle meat-bread combo, and that’s when we go to Darwin’s. All the bread is baked in-house, and the other ingredients are super high quality, so you’ll leave as satisfied as the 68th time you watched Tom Hanks argue with his kid about whether to meet an engaged stranger. We recommend the Magazine sandwich with roast beef and sun-dried tomato-pesto mayo." - joel ang
"As much as we love coffee shops with plant walls and subway tiles the ideal hue of blue, some days we need a not-so-trendy neighborhood spot that gets all the basic things right. Darwin’s is just that place. There are solid sandwiches on house-made bread, a wide selection of pastries, good coffee and tea, fast wifi, and a decent amount of seating with an ample number of power outlets. Additionally, the walls are painted burnt orange, which certain therapists believe brings optimism and creativity to one’s life - that’s better than the blues." - Joel Ang
