Since I live in the same building as Anna's Cafe, I have made repeated visits. The service here is consistently good. The cafe owner is exceedingly nice and has even given me food free of charge. As for the food, it's pretty good. I often order a breakfast sandwich, but unlike the McDonald's version, they serve this all day, and it's fully customizable. Additionally, the prices are very reasonable. Does this place serve the best food ever? Probably not - but the excellent service and reasonably priced good food make this place a solid choice! read more

Got an egg, sausage and cheese bagel and a chocolate chip muffin. Delicious!!! The staff were great and very friendly! They make their own chocolates in store and they are also delicious! Had a sample and will definitely be back! Lots of good ideas for special occasions! read more

Iced Coffee seemed to be very weak tasted like just water with cream. Awful. Tried 3times . Third time was not a charm. Chocolate selection is the best thing they have. For such a cute place I was hoping for a decent coffee. read more

The entrance to Anna's Cafe is up a flight of steps to the entrance which leads into their goodsized dining space. Head in and around the corner to the counter were you place your order and pay. After perusing their chalkboard breakfast and lunch (after 10am) menus, I decided to go with the veggie quesadilla $4.50. I settled myself at a table and they brought my dish over piping hot and accompanied by cool salsa and sour cream. The vegetables were colorful and retained a nice fresh firmness mingled with the hot melty cheese. It was a satisfying lunch, though perhaps a bite or two more than my appetite actually needed. Seeing as I enjoy having both sweet and savory at brunchtime, I appreciated seeing that they offer a french toast and hash brown combination for $4.75. read more

Great brunch with my family before seeing the Bunker Hill Monument. The staff was super friendly, the food was top quality, and fairly priced. I'd go back for sure! read more

Great spot to grab a coffee and quick bite in the morning. Service was fast and friendly.

Overall, this is a cute spot in Charlestown with pretty decent cafe food and coffees/teas that is a great value for money and has friendly, helpful staff. We will definitely come back the next time we're in the area. The two of us kinda balled out and we got: sausage egg and cheese on a croissant, turkey egg and cheese on an Asiago bagel, a cinnamon roll, a pistachio muffin, a medium iced tea, and a large iced cold brew coffee. First off, we got all of that and the total was about $18.50... we thought they had made a mistake, but nope it was that good of a deal. The drinks were average - not bad, but not the best. The sausage egg and cheese was delicious (I mean you can't go wrong there). It was nice they had deli turkey as an option, and the bagel was three c's thiccc and delicious. The cinnamon roll was dry, but again for the price it was all good. The service here was above and beyond. My girlfriend had ordered the pistachio muffin for herself, but I wanted a bite. It looked like it was topped with walnuts (which I'm allergic to), so we asked the staff if it had nuts. She wasn't sure, so she went upstairs to look at the recipe for us, couldn't find it, so then she called the bakery where they get them from. After about five minutes (just for my one bite!), she confirmed that they did have walnuts and offered to even reimburse us for the muffin. We didn't need that, but I wished I caught her name! We really appreciated how much she cared and went out of her way to make sure we knew. Also pro tip: we took the muffin home later and grilled it over the stove in butter - absolutely delicious. Thank you Anna's - we will be back! read more

I come here almost every morning because I work at Charlestown High School. I order an egg and tomato on a croissant and it's delicious!! The croissant is toasted perfectly and the tomatoes are super fresh. The staff are just so pleasant and energetic so early in the morning and I can appreciate that since I have to be at work by 7:20. The tea selection is also amazing; I love green tea and they have a few different flavors for it. There's a nice sized seating area and a television typically showing the news. I definitely enjoy this cozy cafe during my morning commute. read more

The coffee just isn't any good. I've tried it a couple of times and it doesn't fit the bill... tastes burnt one time and very weak the second I haven't tried the food read more

The staff was super friendly! I'm lactose intolerant so they made me a nondairy waffle. So sweet of them. The Macha Latte was perfect! Hash browns were crispy. read more

Had the most wonderful time at Anna's Cafe in Charles Town, starting with how charming the cafe is, it's perfect for a meet up or a quick bit, it even has a small library for kids. Family inviting! I got the chicken pesto panini and chips. It's the perfect size, the homemade taste brings you in, but the coffee and service keeps you coming and makes you family. My drink of choice was their cappuccino, made from medium dark roast Kanbanii bean. Yes, I plan to visit again read more

The food, although microwaved, is always decent and worth the price you pay. Their staff, however, need a bit more training. They have their good and bad days but some days are REALLY bad. For example if you close at 7pm and you have to make food at 6pm you shouldn't be rolling your eyes and huffing and puffing about it. The sandwich is pre made and thrown into a microwave and then tossed into a panini press. There's nothing to it, but it still took 10 minutes to get out. . . There is a new place across the way now and although I've given several chances to hoping Anna's will improve I think I have to take my business for a sandwich elsewhere. A pre-close will kill you 90% of the time in food service. Now if you're just looking for coffee and nothing else. This place could get 4/5 stars. Again, detracting for staff attitude. There's a real opportunity to salvage what seems to be an increasingly frequent trend in rudeness here. read more

Anna's is an awesome cafe in Charlestown. Great coffee and breakfast/ lunch options that are FAST. Charlestown lacks easy going places like this. Customer service is awesome, one time I got an order on too good to go's app and got completely busy and could not pick it up. I called in and asked them if they would still honor the order and they did. Really appreciated that, they went above and beyond and actually make me a fresh breakfast sandwich. read more

They had great Italian wedding soup that I loved. I just got 4 more since they had them in stock after waiting for a month for the soup to be on the menu again. I basically received a teaspoon of pasta with 4 dime sized meatballs in the soup broth. HUGE LET DOWN. Should I mention the STALE BAGELS I've ordered from them TWICE too?? How about MICROWAVED EGG on a breakfast sandwich? This joint went down hill in a heartbeat. It's gross. read more

Come here for the coffee and snacks.I do like the waffles. They have a nice selection of pastries in the morning. They also serve ice cream. I love it inside. It's such a pretty building, and I like to watch the people go by. They have fair trade beans so that's a big plus. I just like to be there. read more

This place is so good! It's really tasty and cheap. I got to breakfast sandwich with bacon, the bacon was crispy and the cheesy is melted. To die for. Their bagels are very thick perfect for a sandwich. It cost about 4 bucks. Amazing! The coffee is okay, it's ran by a machine so it's not the but it's cheap. Also they don't have a lot of milk options. Definitely would come back! read more

Fantastic breakfast sandwich. the sausage was perfectly cooked with the egg and it fit so nicely on the oversized croissant the owner was so nice too. read more

Came in here for some breakfast and coffee because of its proximity to the Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. My wife and I both ordered a turkey egg and cheese sandwich. Mine was on an everything bagel and hers was on croissant. The sandwiches were tasty and warm, but obviously microwaved. The drinks we ordered were really good. The lady that serves us was super friendly. An older lady behind the counter was friendly-ish to us but was definitely judging people based on how they looked and I can see where many of the reviews complained about on friendly staff. We did not have this experience, as the young lady who served me and my wife was very personable and friendly. read more

Anna's Cafe - Two turkey egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches. One on an everything bagel and one on a croissant. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I think Anna's rating is all based on your perspective of Anna's. If you consider Anna's to be a coffee shop, it's awesome. The prices are totally reasonable and they do have a variety of flavors. I always like fun, sugary lattes, and I'm always happy with what I order. It's never particularly busy, so you can always find a seat and can camp out with a laptop without guilt if needed. If you consider Anna's to be a cafe, it's meh. We've had several paninis, breakfast sandwiches, and waffles and by no means is it terrible, but it isn't incredible either. You're probably better off walking over to Prescott for food. I'd give it 5 stars as a coffee shop, 3 stars as a cafe, so we'll meet in the middle at 4 stars. read more

Friendly folks, coffee average, food is ok depends what you get. I got a breakfast sandwich which was yummy but hubs got pancakes and hash brown and scramble and that was NOTHING special. In fact, looked Like microwaved pancakes. Overall not impressed, won't be back read more

I drive past this place everyday and today was the day to try them out. Its kind of rustic with a touch of elegance scenery (I think it's because of the factory sliding doors in the back) but it's a nice place to get your breakfast when your on the run. The prices are affordable considering being next to a loft apartment building. Nice clean open space. I'm glad I started my day off with a delicious sausage egg and cheese on a everything bagel. With a side of tea bread!!!!(like pound cake) read more

Anna's Cafe - The tea bread - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

How has it taken me this long to discover Anna's cafe. It has almost become my new go-to for coffee. I love the variety of flavors they offer (and at a very reasonable price! Like Dunkin Donuts reasonable.) The food is amazing too- I've had a few different sandwiches there including one with a nice toasty croissant. The soups are made fresh and don't always have all the options on the menu available. The price, again, well worth it. It has a great atmosphere and plenty of space so you'll never feel crowded there. Can't say anything negative about it!!! read more

Nice local coffee shop with a good menu. The coffee is always great, and the breakfast sandwiches are top quality. The lunch menu is quite good too. This is a daily stop on my way to work and it's always a home run! read more

Really good food for quick breakfast/lunch. Seriously tho there is one young guy staff member who could not be more rude. Do you hate your job, then move on. The female staff is always lovely, if not for good food and the other staff it would be 5 stars, but man get your shit together.... read more

This place has horrible sandwich's and I've tried it twice. They slapped on a cold egg and a turkey slice and called it a sandwich. The bread was dry and the sandwich almost made me throw up. Their waffles are pretty good but everything else was terrible. read more

This building used to be an old shoe factory. I used to go to that high school up the street .Now I live about 4 blocks away. Since I leave close by , coming here for my morning coffee before I get picked up by Uber. It's s cute spot with large windows and plenty of seats. I would def keep coming here to grab a latte maybe try their breakfast sandwich next time! read more

This is one of my favorite cafes in the area!!! The sandwiches and soups are all very inventive and there's a huge variety, something to please everyone! Thank you so much for the amazing service!! read more

Well, we gave this a try. While I give this place 2 stars for their conscientiousness regarding the coffee they serve, the food is nothing to write home about. It didn't even look like they tried. My toast on my breakfast sandwich was barely toasted, what I was told was "turkey ham " was nothing short of a slice of turkey breast and the egg was nuked to the extent that it was rubber. The "hash browns" that we added I were simply a previous frozen rectangle of potato something that was barely warmed, not even worth a second bite..... read more

Amazing service, beautiful space with tons of light through big windows. They were super welcoming of two moms with toddlers in strollers and the staff even came outside to help us carry our strollers in-- something you DEFINITELY don't find in some other spots in town! Very happy to have checked this place out and look forward to coming back! read more

I live in the building and am loving it so far! Only have gotten Chai tea lattes w almond milk twice but they are better and more consistent than Starbucks! read more

I was working near by for the week and frequently came in here for breakfast or lunch. It's a nice quiet space where I could enjoy my food/coffee and get some work done! read more

I've only recently started coming to Anna's (the past two or three weeks) on the advice of a friend and I have not been disappointed yet! All of the coffee flavors and their caramel macchiato have been delicious! I've also had their bacon egg and cheese almost every time and haven't been disappointed yet! Charlestown has been in need of an affordable breakfast place...glad to find it in Anna's. read more

I got the privilege to work right across the street from this place for one whole week and it became my (and pretty much everyone else working with me) go to spot for lunch. They have amazing food, amazing coffee, and an amazing staff. They are fast and efficient, especially with the rush of people coming in at lunch and I applaud them! Definitely recommend!! read more

This place is amazing! The staff is always helpful and cheerful even when completing complicated or annoying orders. The food and coffee is always wonderful and they make accommodations for allergies. The atmosphere is laid back and chill. Honestly I love Anna's Cafe and suggest that if anyone in the area needs a coffee go here instead of a chain place. read more

I go here several times a week for a coffee and a breakfast sandwich. So much better than the rest of the places in Charlestown and walking distance from my house. Their croissants are so flaky and buttery you can put anything on them and it will be good! One of these days I'll have to grab lunch there. read more

Go to place for morning coffee and a breakfast sandwich! Nice staff with neighborhood vibe.

I was in Charlestown on business and happened to see Anna's Cafe in passing. I wanted a coffee, and I like to shop local if I can, so I went in. It's a wonderful little place and the atmosphere is cozy, quiet, and friendly. The food was fresh and my jerk chicken soup was perfectly spicy. My chicken salad wrap was HUGE and I was so pleased that I got my money's worth. The prices are so reasonable and I had a 16oz mocha, a full wrap, and a 16oz soup for $14. And Ruth, the manager, and the staff were so courteous, attentive, and kind. I will be back! Thanks for a great experience on an afternoon when I needed some peace, quiet, and comfort food! read more

Well me and my squad went and we didn't live because it was like we was drinking grass so I lost 5 dollars and my girls were packed

The food is fair. Some of the staff are rude. Their are 2 females that act as though they are doing the customer a favor. I would've given 3 star for the food but two of the female servers are downright nasty. read more

Was working at Charlestown high for a week so this became my spot. Such great food and great service. All the employees were so helpful and the prices were great! Would definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more
