Best coffe I had in Boston so far. Hot Coffee don't need no cream or sugar and the ice mocha is excellent. I recommend and extra shot in the latte cus the chocolate is that good. Pet friendly and great hours and can't forget about the kind staff. The mountain climber beans are terrific for home brew as well. Sure to not disappoint. read more

The minute you walk into Glasser Coffee, the vibes are instantly immaculate--it smells so relaxing and has that perfect "pin drop quiet" atmosphere. It's an artsy, natural environment that feels like a total sanctuary if you need to put your head down and get some work done or just chill with a cup of tea. While you're waiting for your drink, they have this really lovely community wall that's so sweet to read through. You can genuinely feel the sense of community in there, which makes the whole place feel super welcoming. However, I'd probably skip the Vietnamese coffee next time. It didn't quite hit the mark for authenticity; the condensed milk felt a bit watered down and the coffee itself wasn't nearly concentrated enough to give it that signature kick. It's a beautiful place to sit and relax, and I'd totally go back to try something else on the menu, but the Viet coffee was a bit of a letdown. Go for the peace and quiet and the heartwarming community vibes, but maybe pivot to a different drink! read more

Cute, but tiny place! The vibes in this cafe are very odd and mixed to me. The inside is cute with plants and natural light, but it's incredibly tiny with only three main places to sit, and the music absolutely did not match the vibes. Pop music that was very loud, kinda weird. No outlets that I could see, and a sign specified that no one was allowed to use laptops on the weekend. In my opinion not a great place to work, due to limited seating, distracting music, and lack of comfort. The service was fine, not overly nice. Now to the drink! The rose matcha latte was very very good. A little sweet, but yummy! I did not try the food so I can't vouch for that. Would definitely try again! read more

Glasser Coffee - Rose Matcha Latte 12 oz (iced) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brighton, Massachusetts

First noticed that none of the drinks were overly sweet they were just right which I appreciate! I got some sort of brown sugar latte and my friend got the rose matcha (although we did like the matcha we both agreed it needs to be ordered hot, we just felt that iced was not really giving the right flavor to the matcha). I got a plain breakfast sandwich, which was huge not just cause of the bread. read more

The coffees here are creative and yummy! I plan on trying this cafe again when I have more time, but I was in a time crunch when I came and needed to get my coffee and get to work! I have no complaints about the coffee and thoroughly enjoyed my pumpkin spice latte. The next time I visit I definitely want to be able to sit here for a bit and work on my laptop or catch up with a friend! Overall, my coffee had a really good structure, and I would rate it a 7/10 based on flavor, size, and price. read more

One of the best matcha lattes I've had. There's lots of tables to sit outside. There's QR codes that you can use to order from the table if you don't want to go inside/it's packed. Excited to try more of their menu. read more

This place had been on my Yelp bookmarks since moving and I had high hopes for it because it seemed very aesthetic and pretty and down to earth. So I decided to make a trek out as especially in areas of Brighton and Allston, there's less public transportation options. While it is a cute little shop tucked in Brighton with a pretty aesthetic, unfortunately the drink itself was not very worth it. I ordered an iced rose matcha latte and already it was super pricey because they charge a good dollar and half just to make the drink iced. I don't know about you but I don't trust places that charge that much just to make a drink iced?? Upon trying it, I was also a little disappointed because all you could taste was milk. There was maybe a tiny touch of matcha and rose and then nothing. It didn't have a good balance of flavors and I honestly felt like I was just drinking green milk. I don't think I will be making a trek out again. Honestly if someone on the sidewalk swiped this drink out of my hand, I wouldn't even be upset. read more

I used to love coming to Glasser Coffee... especially walking to the cafe after a snowstorm. But today the staff was very rude.

I enjoyed my iced latte from Glasser, but the customer service was truly awful. I had ordered ahead and went to the front to let them know I was there to pick it up. Right away, a staff member responded rudely with, "OK, you're going to have to wait." I ended up waiting 15 minutes before asking another employee at the register, only to find out my drink had been sitting in the fridge the entire time. The woman behind me had the exact same issue. When we brought it to the staff member's attention, there was no apology--just an eye roll. A few minutes later, I overheard another customer politely ask if they could add milk to their coffee, and the same barista replied with an exaggerated, sarcastic "Okayyyyy, what kind...?" followed by yet another eye roll. I've never experienced such blatantly rude behavior from a barista. Based on this one visit, I saw at least four other customers who looked equally frustrated--likely never coming back. It's disappointing, because the coffee was good, but the service was so unprofessional it completely ruined the experience. read more

Such a cute coffee shop in Brighton. Came here for a coffee break and ordered the lavender latte. It was so good. It's a very simple coffee shop where it opened from 7 am to 3 PM. There are different types of specialty coffees and I wouldn't mind trying another or even a snack. It's an ideal place to hang out for a little bit in the morning or early afternoon. read more

Glasser is an adorable little cafe in Brighton. Unfortunately, they do not have much seating, but it was not relatively busy when I entered on a Saturday morning. I ordered a rose matcha latte and an almond croissant. The almond croissant was not bad. It was decent in size and fluffy on the inside. I wish I had heated it up beforehand because the filling would have tasted better. The rose matcha latte was pretty good. I could taste the rose flavoring alongside the matcha, and I thought it paired nicely. It was not a mind-blowing drink, but it tasted like it was advertised, so i was pleased. They had other drinks on their menu, which I would come back to try. I did appreciate the ambiance and decor of this store and would come back to chill if I had some time to spare next time. read more

Cute coffee shop in Brighton! I ordered a lavender latte and a bacon breakfast taco! Both were great! They also have vegan options for breakfast food items! The place is nicely decorated and the safe was friendly as well. The only thing is you plan to study there to note is that there is no public bathroom. Great otherwise, would recommend! read more

Good Coffee. I got the lavender latte which was not too overly sweet. Need to come back for the food.

Solid all around. Both drip coffee and espresso drinks are good (Boston coffee overall is disappointing, but they're one of the better ones). Breakfast sandwich and tacos are both solid. Employees are always friendly. Inside is small but there's some seating and the decor is nice. read more

My favorite local coffee shop. Delicious sandwiches and pastries as well as unique drinks. I highly recommend Glasser when you want to treat yourself or someone else :) read more

We loved this place. Delicious coffee and food (we had breakfast sandwich and scone). Kind service. Decent amount of seating for a small cafe. Only downside was tricky to find parking on a Saturday. Wish we lived within walking distance! read more

I really love Glasser. It is the perfect little local spot that I can walk to. I usually get an iced latte with almond syrup, which I was excited that they offer. Most other places don't have almond as an option. Their pastries are also so delicious. I've had both a lemon filled danish and an almond croissant, both of which were light and flaky. To top it off, everyone who works here is super nice! read more

Love the ambiance, the coffee the service it's perfect will be back soon!! Highly recommend their spicy mayo too

Okay, I love this coffee shop. Brighton needs more of these. I only wish it was closer, I'd probably be there way too often. Great vibe, tasty food, and nice employees. The trifecta. We ordered the veggie version of the tacos with beans and potatoes, so good. Great mix of flavors. Also ordered the breakfast sandwich with a croissant and the chili oil. Yum again; though I would ask for extra chili oil next time or a combination of the chili oil and mayo because this time the chili oil was too subtle for my liking. It took a lot of time to decide which drink to get, their menu is amazing in terms of novelty. We went with the Earl grey tea latte and we were very happy with our choice. It was steaming hot, lightly sweet, and hit the spot. We conveniently placed our order online and it was ready by the time we reached Glasser to collect it. Can't wait to try more of their fantastic menu! read more

Dope vibes and very kind staff. Love to see community boards and interesting art. Food and coffee are solid too. 23/30

very cool spot & ambiance. Plants and good music inside. Everyone is super nice. Love their iced coffee!

Ah, Glasser. I can't speak to the coffee drinks here but I do have to say the pastries are a wonderful post-run pick-me-up. Glasser is conveniently situated along a nice running route to the Charles River and I can see myself coming here often for some much-needed carbs. Of the pastries, I've enjoyed the blueberry muffin (not sugary at all, oat-y enough in texture that I can fool myself into thinking it's actually super healthy) and the regular croissant (which I prefer to Clear Flour's, less buttery). They also have chive and coconut lemon scones, as well as a selection of breakfast foods, including tacos and a bowl. I appreciate how they offer to-go ordering if you're in a rush and/or don't want to be indoors at this time. (Just a note that 20% tip is added automatically to the online order unless you change it.) The employees (all masked) are really sweet. Once, they ran out of the almond croissant I had ordered and quickly came out to offer anything else. Some seating out front and a parking lot nearby. read more

Had a free morning and decided to try this place for the first time after hearing about it from a friend. There's two-hour street parking right outside, which is convenient. We came around 9:30am on a Saturday morning and one of the two booths, and the window seats were taken so luckily we got to snag the other booth. The atmosphere is very cozy and reminiscent of peaceful cafes in Asia. I got the Rose Matcha Latte and an Almond Croissant. The rose flavor was stronger than I expected, which was a nice surprise. It felt perfectly balanced with the matcha flavor. I decided halfway through my latte to order another drink, since I was already here and the entire menu looked good. I ended up also getting a Vietnamese Cold Brew. The condensed milk sat at the bottom, so it required a good stirring. I preferred the matcha latte, but that's because I'm more of a tea person than a coffee person. The croissant was flaky and while it didn't have many almonds on top, the paste inside was delicious. My partner got the Ginger Chai Latte, which was also a great combination of flavors, as well as a Breakfast Sandwich with ham over a croissant, and later on, a Peach Limeade. A little sour for my taste but that's also just my personal preference. Overall, a really cute surprise in Brighton. It seemed like it attracts people of all ages. Definitely a nice place to enjoy plants while working or catching up with a friend if you can manage to get a seat. read more

Cute place! I was feeling extra tired and had two drinks. I had an iced oat milk latte that was good, then I got the rose matcha- supper yummy! Great service, nice vibes, but there was no bathroom in the restaurant (option to use on close by). read more

Excellent small coffee shop with surprisingly a ton of seating. 3 by the window 2 outside, 2 by the wall, and 2 booths for 8 total. Soy latte (iced) was on point. Cold brew also was well brewed and not overly strong tasting, but packed a punch. Staff were courteous and said goodbye when we left. Great spot! read more

Are you kidding?! This place was SO good!! It's been on my list for a while and I'm mad at myself for not going earlier. The Black Lavender Fog tea was hands down the best drink I've ever had. It was lusciously smooth, lightly sweet, and tasted like a liquid cloud. I also had a breakfast taco with black bean and corn salsa which was excellent - fresh, filling, and spiced perfectly! Please, please, PLEASE skip Dunkin' Donuts and spend the extra couple dollars for greatness! read more

If you're reading this get the Rose Matcha Latte with Oat Milk!! 100/10 It was my first time here and I wasn't too sure what to expect. I prefer my matcha latte iced, but for the latte art and aesthetic I got it hot and let me tell you I was not disappointed! It was the perfect sweetness, most matcha lattes are unsweetened (a lot of people prefer it this way but I'm someone who likes drinking things slightly sweet) so I was pleased it was sweet from the rose syrup. When I took a sip, the rose flavoring wasn't overbearing! It actually tasted amazing with the matcha and I was really surprised how much I loved it (as I'm someone that isn't too fond of floral flavor drinks). It was also still super creamy with the oat milk. I'll have to try this next time iced! I also got the breakfast taco, it's $5 and comes with one, but the spicy Mayo drizzled on top of the eggs, potatoes and bacon tasted so good in the soft tortilla. This place will be one of my go-to for sure! read more

Cute, quaint, bright and cheery little coffee shop that also has some intriguing food options. I spied a breakfast taco being eaten when I was leaving and made a mental note that I'll need to try next time. Stopped in for a latte on a whim and I was pleasantly surprised. They have some unique tea beverages that you won't normally find at any coffee spot. I noted they sell bags of their own coffee, and you get a free coffee or tea long with a purchase (again, will do this next time). I also loved the greenery sprinkled throughout - adds a nice feel to the space. Also, fyi there are just 2 booths, a small 2-3 person table, and a couple of bar seats. Can't guarantee a seat if that's what you're looking for. read more

Coffee was good but you must have loads of time to come here as it is very slow. Additionally online orders are a waste of time. We placed our order online and came about 20 mins later when it said it'd be ready. They did not start our order till after we arrived or so it seemed. Or forgot our order. Then people who walked in after us still had their coffee well before we even had our order. They took another 20 + mins while we were in store to make our coffee. It was pretty rough. When asked what was going on they said they were working on it but other people continued to walk in and out before we even had our coffee. read more
