Dessert wine bar with vinyl records, cheese boards, and no phones














"This little nook in Inman Square features the best desserts around by co-owner Alexandra Whisnant, the master chocolatier behind Gâté Comme Des Filles — think ultra-rich chocolate mousse, made-from-scratch tiramisu, and more. It’s positioned as a wine and dessert bar, so don’t feel weird about going just for dessert, but there are also cheese and charcuterie boards available. Romantic bonus: This is a cell-phone-free zone." - Celina Colby


"Put the cell phone down and pick up a wine glass at Zuzu’s Petals, a charming wine bar and dessert spot in Inman Square. Order a glass from the well-curated wine list and pair it with a cheese board or an Earl Grey chocolate mousse served in a vintage teacup, or come on Monday nights for all-you-can-eat brownies with any wine order. Oh, and they’re serious about putting the cell phone down: The bar politely requests that no screens be used at the table while enjoying the dessert and wine." - Erika Adams

"Head to Inman’s local wine bar and put away your phone, sip on some natural wine, and dig into an Earl Grey dark chocolate mousse. Stop by any day from 5 to 11 p.m." - Karen Wilber

"I also noticed Zuzu’s Petals, a cellphone-free wine and dessert bar that opened in Cambridge last year, is part of the same group of ventures." - Adam H. Callaghan

"A unique venue in Cambridge offering a distinct dining experience with a focus on wine and desserts without the distraction of cell phones." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
