    Blueberry muffin
    Aya R.

    My order: Egg and Feta on gluten free bread, iced coffee, blueberry muffin (GF), matcha latte The Review: Headed to 3 Little Figs for a weekday morning breakfast with the fam. The vibes were great and the staff were really nice. The sandwiches were loved by all. There were options for everyone and tons of gluten free things. We followed it up with a little walk on the Somerville community path, and once we worked up an appetite, we had a crazy idea to go back for pastries and another drink! The iced matcha with soy milk was perfect on a hot day. If we can go twice in one morning, then it's a given that we will be back for more.

    Market sandwich (half) - excellent flavor balance, great portion
    Madeleine B.

    Stopped by for a smoothie and some sandwiches to go and really enjoyed everything! Vibe: Small cafe with indoor and outdoor seating, note that there is additional indoor seating if you go back towards the kitchen and over. Service: Fairly quick while they were pretty busy Food: Pepper biscuit breakfast sandwich - was a small but dense and delicious breakfast. Market sandwich - delicious balance of ingredients, solid portion Chocolate shake - this was SO yummy and you wouldn't even know it had sweet potato in it! Value: Prices were good for the quality and quantity of food. Overall I loved everything I got and would definitely recommend and return again!

    Market Sandwich, Matcha Latte, Lemon Cake
    Connie L.

    Cute little brunch spot! They are very busy and the space is small, so smaller groups are preferable. Really enjoyed their lemon cake - it was moist with a strong kick of lemon zest. The market sandwich's fig jam was a nice sweet contrast to the salty prosciutto. I only wish the bread wasn't cold and there was less goat cheese. Matcha lattes were pretty average. Staff were nice. The line moved quick and they were helpful with their recommendations.

    Breakfast sandwich

    Grabbed a quick breakfast here and everything was great! The biscuit was really wonderful!

    Such a great spot!! Coffee is always perfect and all the baked goods are soo tasty! My favourite is the strawberry jam bar! Today I got a cortado and the pepper biscuit with cheese and egg! The sandwich was very tasty!

    Pepper biscuit
    Lauren B.

    3 Little Figs is a cute cafe! It was super busy when I stopped in, but the line moved quickly. The staff is really nice too. I got the pepper biscuit, which was good but pretty average, and in my opinion not worth $8.00.

    Egg & Feta Sandwich
    Ellie C.

    There has always been a long line out the door here when we've walked by on weekends, and our visit was no different. Luckily, the line moved pretty fast, and we also got our food pretty quickly after. We originally wanted to dine in, but it was so crowded inside from the constant flow of people ordering and waiting near the counter that we decided to take out instead. "The market" sandwich (prosciutto, goat cheese, arugula, and fig jam on focaccia) was a perfect mix of sweet and salty flavors and a great portion size for just $11. The egg and feta breakfast sandwich (scrambled eggs, tomato, arugula, and feta on a brioche bun) was a lot smaller and less unique in flavors, but also good value at $7. I would come back for the market sandwich again and order ahead online for pickup!

    Pastry case
    Lauren S.

    Saturday morning was definitely a busy time to go, but we loved our experience here!! We came at the recommendation of multiple friends (one of which claimed this place houses the best barista-- EVER) This isn't a huge space, but they have a no computer rule, meaning people aren't lingering for forever which is nice! Sandwiches were yummy (excellent pepper biscuit) and the lavender biscuit was standout!! The black drip coffee had a fruity end note, but great complex flavor. The cortado, made to perfection, and the cold brew was nice as well! Pricing was reasonable for the area! All in all, we will be back!

    Feta Toast, Market Sandwich, 4 oz Cortado
    Jake S.

    Super cute spot! Entering, it smells like freshly-ground coffee. Hard to find a seat on the weekend because it's so good. Even a simple toast is next-level tasty here.

    Market Sandwich with turkey
    Jocelyn G.

    Amazing sandwiches with fresh made breads. I got the market sandwich and swapped out the prosciutto for turkey. I love the flavor combination of everything and it was a perfect ratio of filling to bread. Amazing portions especially for the price. Would definitely recommend!

    Egg cheddar w/ sausage
    Vincent C.

    Absolutely deserving of the Best Cafe in Somerville title! The line can be daunting but the staff work hard to keep it flowing and delivery high quality food and drinks! I doubt I'll ever be disappointed on any future visits. Food: The drinks were very refreshing and a great wake up jolt of caffeine. I was intrigued by the espresso soda and I was not disappointed. It was such a nice blend of fruity flavors that slide perfectly into a familiar coffee taste. The sweet ricotta toast and the egg cheddar sandwich were amazing! The sourdough and ciabatta were the stars and their great bready textures made for perfect vehicles. Service: The staff worked like a well oiled machine but still offered great hospitality! Atmosphere: The popularity does cause the cafe to be busy but everyone was very respectful of one another's space so it wasn't an overwhelming crowd. The decorations also added to the energetic atmosphere.

    sausage breakfast sandwich
    Tyler M.

    One of the best breakfast sandwiches in Boston! The team at three little figs executes breakfast / brunch classics to perfection. We had the sausage breakfast sandwich with a flaky black pepper biscuit, juicy and flavorful sausage patty, and just the right amount of cheese. I would eat this everyday if I could. The strawberry rhubarb bun was just out of the oven and paired perfectly. Attentive service staff and a cozy space. I would recommend ordering online, which has always been the fastest path to food for us.

    A latte and a matcha met for a date, with me
    Angela D.

    Love love love 3 Little Figs. Stop in for a warm drink, a warm smile and a delicious treat. Their chia pudding is definitively creative, delicious and balanced with a creamy flavor, and fluffy texture. Their bean selection is ensured with joy and lattes radiate grace and delicate balance. I find the inside to be cozy and welcoming, the outside is deliciously wonderful to sit at in the sunshine. The team are wonderfully kind with friendly service. My friends have tried their sandwiches and always rave about the focaccia - I have yet to try the granola but let me know if you do, I consider it each time. Big fan!

We put our names on the list and we were told that our wait would be 25-35 minutes. Our luck continued as we only waited 15 minutes before being escorted to a booth. As I said earlier, it was busy and you could tell the wait staff was working to keep everyone happy! We were given menus and quickly asked what we would like to drink. The drinks were on our table in no time! We ordered one appetizer (buffalo fried brussel sprouts) and it came pretty quickly! I am not a big fan but my son and wife loved it! They raved about the seasoning and taste of the sprouts! (see picture) We put our orders in for dinner after finishing the sprouts. I ordered steak tips with frieds and ceasar salad, we had pan roasted flattened half chicken and a shaved kale and brussels salad to top things off. The food was delivered to our table in managable time. I would say 15 minutes from the time we ordered. The food was delicious and serving size was perfect. All three of were happy with our choices. The steak tips were perfect for me.....cooked medium well and juicy! We finished our dinner off with a dessert that my wife had heard of and wanted to order. I did not have any, but they raved about it! The Banana Break pudding was out of this world! I wish I saved some room as the smell was delicious and the size was perfect! WOW! Price- average Parking- seems to be enough spots on Highland Ave Vibe- a local bar with great food...lots of families Would I come back? For sure...I am looking forward to a visit before the Holiday season! I really like the way the entire place is set up....inviting and welcoming! 5 stars from me!

TL;DR - if you are from Bombay, are craving that specific Bombay Chinese food taste, and Vada Pav - look no further - this is the place. Most of their staff are fellow Mumbaikars - shout out to Shiv, Dhvani, and Ronak! Shiv, our server was friendly and our hungry table got straight to ordering which included a flavor packed and well priced Lychee Martini ($10), Masala Chai Hot Toddy ($12), and Spicy 'Lil Rita ($12) - being the best one! Food included some well name dishes like Kashmiri Deviled Eggs ($12), Vada Pav ($12), Rasam Risotto ($15), Butter Chicken Pot Pie ($20), Chicken Steak with Makhani Sauce ($18), Street Fried Noodles ($16), and Penne Pasta with Chicken for the kiddos. Food just hits the right spots and is very flavorful, extremely well seasoned, and perfectly spiced. Interiors and their bar is very inviting. Noise levels during our stay were on the lower end. Service was excellent. What was refreshing was they didn't charge us any automatic gratuity even for our large group - but absolutely deserved a generous one! Highly highly recommend if flavorful food is your thing!

This is a pub-type atmosphere with a full-service, large bar serving cocktail specials and a gazillion draft beer options. There is a street-side patio if you wish to watch the people and cars at Davis Square. Five Horses serves American comfort food, and they do a pretty good job serving up their offerings. I ordered the steak tips, and they were OK. They were served Med/rare, as ordered, but they did need a bit more seasoning. Plus one ordered a steak salad, and it was OK. They were pretty frugal with the protein, and it came with an abundance of tomatoes. Another guest split a cobb salad it arrived without some ingredients, like bacon. Other diners stated that their dinners were excellent, so 4 stars seems about right. Even though they were very busy, our table was well taken care of throughout the evening. If I lived here, this would be in my rotation for a brew or two, catch a game, and enjoy a burger.

    I try not to post negative reviews but I do not recommend the flank steak. I saw it (flank steak,…read morechimmichurri sauce, mashed potatoes, and broccoli) at $29 and said I haven't ordered a steak in while, let's treat myself. Boy was I disappointed, it was literally four tiny slices of beef, about a ladle and a half of mashed potatoes (flavor was great but the texture was dry and it was hard to swallow), and the broccoli was broccoli. The steak was cooked to my liking (rare) but it was room temp and I would describe that serving size as maybe the equivalent of a medallion. Everything else our table ordered (pizza, shepherd's pie, and a burger) looked great but the flank steak is not it y'all. However the service was top notch and will definitely go back, just won't order the flank steak next time!
