The Best Restaurants In Inman Square

"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

Darwin’s - Review - Inman Square - Boston - The Infatuation

"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

Closing forever on December 22nd. This has been a mainstay forever! Solid sandwiches and coffee. My friend got the tiniest avocado toast we had ever seen, I enjoyed my turkey sandwich, and a very well-made Matcha latte.

Darwin's had come highly recommended to me by Google. I arrived early and got a seat to work for a while. Coffee was good/fresh. Slightly pricey, but in line with expectations for a local coffee shop in Cambridge. They had a decent amount of seating and outlets, so I was pleasantly surprised. It was a great place to work. I would return again to try the food!

Moca review: November 24, 2021 Excellent mocha! Great foam layer, nice decoration from the barista on top, and good balance of espresso and chocolate all the way down. Seems odd to make it with chocolate milk, but it means there is no residue at the bottom of the cup and no change in flavor as you drink it. It’s a standard thing at the Darwins Cafes. They use chocolate milk from Thatcher Farms, which hits my sweet spot for being on the dry side and not too sweet.

The Sherman (pastrami, Swiss, cole slaw & Russian dressing) on rye is my go-to sandwich here. The daily sandwich specials always look good too...maybe someday I'll try something besides the Sherman.

Great coffee. Wish I could linger like pre-Covid days, but the sandwiches and cakes and coffees are still there ready for the asking to take out.

I just unwrapped my $13 Soldier's Field sandwich to find the sticker still on the apple! (see photo) I remember when this place was good quality, sad to see it's gone downhill. Save your money and get a sandwich somewhere else.

Great local shop with yummy sandwiches and desserts. They serve breakfast sandwiches til 3pm on the weekends. I had the Inman breakfast burrito and bought some of the cookies to go. Lots of seating and a relaxed atmosphere.
