We finally got the chance to check out Kuya Jay's Ube Cafe in Somerville, Massachusetts, and it…read moreabsolutely did not disappoint! I can honestly say it's one of the best little cafes we've ever visited. I had never tried ube before, and for anyone unfamiliar like I was, it's a purple yam. I ordered the Banana brulee Cold Foam, and it was incredibly refreshing and packed with the perfect blend of flavors, topped with fresh bananas. It was absolutely delicious! The bread completely surprised me. It was evenly baked, incredibly moist, and somehow crafted to pure perfection. The ice cream was a treat as well, but honestly, everything we tried was phenomenal. We can't wait until our next trip to Massachusetts just so we can enjoy a few more bites. I also loved the purple theme throughout the cafe, although maybe I'm a little biased since purple happens to be my birthstone! One of my favorite touches was the owners' book, where you can see pictures and learn more about their story. It really adds a personal touch to the experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and we would definitely recommend this place for a quick snack, dessert, or beverage. There is some temporary street parking available as well. If you're in the area, Kuya Jay's Ube Cafe is absolutely worth a visit!

Came here for a sweet treat in the afternoon on a weekend and the place was a bit busy, but not…read moreoverly so. The wait wasn't too bad and the menu had a good selection of ube flavored drinks and treats. The spot is located in this public space with nice lighting and some seating. The area also does cooking classes and has some areas to study. I actually got two drinks to try both and they were tasty - not amazing, but not bad given the price. Overall, I didn't mind the experience, but I have seen some troubling things online regarding permits that deter me from coming back unfortunately. Drinks tasted fine though!

What a nice, and different experience. I took 4 grandchildren here for a kitty picnic. The kids…read moredid not want to leave!! I had to not only count cats (jokingly of course) to ensure they weren't trying to take one but I also had to count kids since at least two wanted to start working here. There were 22 cats on the day we visited. There were no snacks available - which are advertised to be included with the picnic - but we were okay with the sandwiches we brought from home. The space is clean and cozy. It seemed like there were cats in every crack and crevice. The cats seem relaxed and happy. It's been less than a week and already three of them are asking when they can go again.

I recommend taking a wee stroll around the garden just outside the building. They did a great job revamping the business located inside. The new Ansel Gurney café offers yummy eats and beautiful views if you get the opportunity to sit out on the deck. I recommend getting one of the panini's!!! Also, they have a shop inside called Strawberry Moon which has all of the things you didnt know you needed but you most definitely need! Crystals, candles, plants, accessories, and so many smelly goods!!

I went on a saturday and they sold old within a half hour of being open.! They also have cute little hot chocolate drinks and lattes and coffee. The cafe is open limited hours so make sure you check it out on instagram or google before hand! & make sure you order ahead or get there as soon as they open. Its very cute inside, has inside dining which you will probably want to utilize because these croissants make a mess! Lol Definitely worth a look while in federal hill for a sweet early treat!

I bought tickets for me and my mom online and getting into the cat café was very easy. Plenty of parking is available and the café portion of the storefront looks right into the cat room. There were enough cats for everyone inside to find someone to play with, even if some of the little friends were tired. You must take your shoes off to go into the cat room, but if you dont have socks, there are some available for purchase. Definitely will return soon!

There are not many tables inside and it fills up fast, so I recommend getting food to go. The interior is super cute! I loved all the decor!! The avocado sandwich had a lot of flavor and was worth the 15 minute wait. They have SO many delicious looking sweets, it's hard to decide what to get. I will be back when I'm in the area again!
