Neighborhoods Coffee And Crepes

I really wanted to love this place based on other reviews, but it fell short. I was expected a variety of vegan options, but the only vegan snack available was a pre-​packaged oatmeal cup. I chose to just get a drink– soy vanilla iced latte– and it was decent. I loved the outdoor seating area, but I wish they had more vegan friendly items. (I didn’t go near closing time, I went at about 2 pm on a Sunday)

We’ve been to this cute little café a few times. Has a very nice interior, very warm and cozy. We’ve had the bananas foster crêpe numerous times and it is always good. Also had the sweet simplicity crêpe, and the tudor both were very good. The café has only a few tables inside so we ate in only once, and other times did take-​out. They have outdoor seating in the summer which is really nice. They make the crepes right in front of you after you order. They also have some pastries and muffins — we only tried some once. Definitely recommend the sweet crepes!

So good! The gluten free crêpe was amazing, and the coffee was spot on and delicious. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Wonderful.

I had the turkey bacon, egg and cheese crêpe. This thing was huge and so filing. The bacon was thick and had spice to it. Paired this with a chai latte. Plus side there was outdoor seating! They make the crepes right in front of too!

Updating my review bc I appreciate the response and that the staff will be trained about the Unilocal offer. I think it’s very important to be accepting of these as it often is what gets people to visit. Look forward to trying again soon. Thanks

I’ve probably been here for breakfast/​brunch about 15 – 20 times. The interior is very cute– definitely recommend as a breakfast date spot. There’s limited seating, but 90% of the time, one of the tables will clear up by the time your crêpe is made. Occasionally, you get the obnoxious undergrads that take up several tables to themselves and spend 2 hours «studying» here instead of at a library or a Starbucks. You can also sit outside when the weather is nice.
The crepes are excellent! I’ve tried the Raspberry Dazzle one, the Signature crêpe, and the chicken pesto crêpe. I really liked all three, especially the chicken pesto crêpe, which seems to be the most popular item on the menu. My bf is a fan of the Sweet Simplicity crêpe as well. Their iced coffee is excellent, and their Beestinger drink is worth trying as well.

I love this place! In fairness I got to be a part of the team to open it, but at the moment I have no affiliation with it and still frequent it because it’s awesome!
I love the fair trade Numi tea (my favorite is the ginger lemon decaf).
I also love the baked good goods and the atmosphere. Everyone is so friendly.
I’m not a crêpe person so I don’t eat often buy crepes, but, when I do, I go for the organic and fair trade version of Nutella, with some fruit to accompany it.

I stopped by here because it was the only non-​Starbucks/​Duncan Donuts open at 6am. Not only was I pleasantly surprised by the quality of the espresso and the excellent service.
Walking in, I decided just to order a latte and a pastry to go. It was so quiet and peaceful, I couldn’t help but sit down and check in on Unilocal (setting a reminder to rate the place well). The girls behind the counter were extremely awake and friendly for it being 6:02 in the morning, and they expressed nothing but welcome to my story about moving here from Texas. The espresso is not very bitter, and has an almost nutty taste to it. I did not realize it at the time, but they have a $ 4 iced coffee + pastry special before 10am that I will be returning for.
Minus one star ONLY for the lack of wifi. However, this definitely keeps the traffic down and maintains the friendly-​social environment, forcing people out of their MacBooks. I respect this as a strategic business decision, however it is a bit odd and I’d be curious to see how long it is before they install a router.
Neighbors Coffee is quaint and conveniently tucked away behind Fenway. I will be visiting, and helping myself to many of their delicious crepes.

Okay Crepes, Okay Staff. They have a lot of fun back there, and frequently forget about customer service. Just wish THAT THEY WOULD LISTEN WHEN I SAY N O T. TO PUT ANY GLAZE ON TOO IF MY CREPES jesus

My girlfriend and I went here and ordered two drinks and two crepes.
I ordered a Chai Latte with vanilla and she ordered and a London Fog with extra vanilla. Although both drinks were decent enough, neither had the extra vanilla syrup we asked for.
As for the crepes: she ordered the Billy crêpe with goat cheese, walnuts, cranberries, arugula, and dressed with honey but was instead dressed with both honey and balsamic vinaigrette. She said it was still pretty good. I ordered the Sweet Simplicity with a hazelnut chocolate spread and banana. This was also pretty good.
Overall the people were nice, but the decent food and drinks combined with the wrong-​ish carry out of our orders gave us an average impression of the café.

Loses 3 stars because it doesn’t really have free wifi. It has xfinity wireless. So if you’re not a customer of xfinity you have no wifi.
The ginger lemonadetastrs just like lemonade and the service is mediocre.

I absolutely love this café! I got a strawberry and banana crêpe with a chocolate Hazelnut spread and it was to dead for. Seriously made perfect and with love. I got a lemonade with tea mixed in and it was very refreshing and enjoyable. I got my food and drink to go but ended up eating outside and it was so nice and calming with the sun.
The staff that help me were VERY friendly and made me feel valued as a costumer with is becoming more and more rare these days. They did get busy after I ordered and I felt bad because there were only 2 girls to make the crepes and get drinks for everything ordered! But they handled it well. I payed with my card but they don’t take Fenway cash for those who like to use it.
The inside area is small but I think it gives it more charm.
I will definitely be back ASAP and be bringing any friends that come to visit Boston

Thisss is a review on just the dessert/​sweet crepes. Not a fan of savory crepes for some reason, like what is thiss half assed burrito type quesadilla thing i’m trying to eat. in dessert form tho i mess with crepes through and through.
Ordered the bananas foster and strawberry with nutella crêpe. Both were on point, and just what you’d expect from either. Got both crepes and forgot to get that ice cream, paid a dollar and my dude came through with the whole ice cream tub and just kept scooping away until we were satisfied. Highkey wanted him to just leave the whole tub of ice cream. Ice cream is V essential with either of these crepes. Alsoooo price point is very reasonable, Think it was something like 5 $ for each crêpe: essential if you’re trying to eat instagram worthy food and still afford to cop those new jordans saturday morning.
**side note, americano was terrible here, tasted like mostly water
Fuccboi protip: bring your supreme nalgene to let people know you fuxx on a sunny day as you eat your dessert crepes as your lunch substitute instead of any actual real food.

My GF loved it. She only tried the crêpe. Seemed like there were only 6 – 7 tables for two. She says she would come back again. Check it out if you like crepes and you’re in the area.

Great coffee, delicious crêpe and friendly staff.
The only defect is that the place is quite small, it was completely full when we got there. Had to eat outside in the cold weather, but I imagine that can be really nice in the summer.

A decent crêpe spot right in my neighborhood! Limited seating when it gets busy but I absolutely love meeting up with people here or just grabbing a table to study at. I’ve had my fair share of Crêpes everywhere I go, I definitely enjoy the savory options more than the sweet ones

I loveeee cafes, and this café truly speaks to me with its welcoming interior. Be wary because most of the seating here is for 2 or 4s. It’s a great place to get some work done, or to simply catch up because they have board games by the back of the room near the bathrooms. I highly recommend the Spanish latte for it is uniqueness and tastiness due to the condensed milk. If you order desserts, this subtle sweetness can easily become overhwhelmed so you might want to opt for coffee if you’re getting a sweet crêpe.
The duo next to us ordered a savory crêpe, and it certainly looked a lot more loaded and smelled strongly of pesto. The recipe for the batter is not as sweet and flavorful as other crêpe places as I have gone to, which is why I did not give this place 5 stars. If you name your store after crepes, you should certainly have awesome batter.

Adorable interior (love the toile wallpaper and lighting)
Good crepes — I had the raspberry with cream cheese one drizzled with chocolate
Nice selection of teas and coffees
I am confused by the inexplicable «no eggs after 10am» rule (ummm… Crepes generally have eggs in them — so technically they are breaking their own rule)…
But all that’s quibbling with an adorable place with sweet staff.

Got the London Fog and Simplicity crêpe with strawberry and banana. The two employees were both super friendly and nice.
I’m not a huge tea person so the london fog just wasn’t for me. It was essentially earl gray tea bag with cream or milk inside. Nothing crazy or fancy but I should’ve just got a coffee or something.
The crêpe was delicioussss and didn’t take that long to make. You can’t really go wrong with crêpe and nutella.
Luckily when we got there around 7ish there was only like two people so we had a table for three people. Around 8 near 9 ish people started pouring in and many of them couldn’t get seats so go at a weird time if you want seats. The place is bright and simple but it was pretty and would be a nice place for casual hang outs or even a date.
Overall a good experience, I would definitely come again. :)

Warm, fresh crepes – made right before you with skill and ease – filled generously with peanut butter, banana, and sprinkles of cinnamon, then topped with drizzles of honey. Yes in every single way. Given the choice, I would eat this every day for the rest of my life.
I love coffee and I love crepes, so naturally I had to try here and I am so glad I did. I found my new favorite place in all of Boston, tucked in in a relatively quieter area on a stretch of restaurants near Fenway.
Neighborhoods Coffee & Crepes (NCC) dishes out outstanding crepes and great service. On an early Saturday evening, I discovered a world of deliciousness inside this shop when I ordered the Tudor breakfast crêpe. (Only breakfast crepes with eggs cannot be ordered past the set time for breakfast.) The Tudor has peanut butter, cinnamon, honey, and your choice of bananas or apples. Loving the peanut butter and banana combination for sandwiches, I opted for bananas.
Let me take a moment to express how I felt about this crêpe: SPECTACULAR. It is absolute perfection. It is just outstanding in flavor and texture. I am very specific about my peanut butter, and I could not get enough of this crêpe. I ate every. Single. Bite. If you visit NCC (and you are not allergic to peanuts), GET THIS. Like, right now. (My mouth is watering just writing this.) Seriously, perfection. It is my most favorite meal of all time.
Should I stop my review here? I probably could, but just a couple other points…
All of the crepes – and you have a wonderful selection, from sweet to savory, breakfast to dessert – are made and filled with high quality and fresh ingredients and fruit. The bananas, strawberries, and other seasonal berries are perfect in sweetness and flavor. There are a number of cheeses to fill the Croque Monsieur, and a sweet spread to cover the berries of the Sweet Simplicity. You will undoubtedly find something wonderful and to your liking here, as everything is tailored to your tastes.
As for the coffee – that’s pretty delicious, too. My absolute favorite is the Bee Stinger latte, with honey and cinnamon and nutmeg. It is a deliciously lightly flavored latte and pairs perfectly with any crêpe dish. I get one with my crepes and another to go as dessert. (No, I do not have a problem or a serious love of honey.) Another yummy drink is the Spanish latte, with sweet and wholesome condensed milk. The Spanish coffee – a café au lait with cinnamon and cocoa powder – is also good. NCC serves George Howell coffee, which is a fantastic type.
Of utmost importance to note: NCC has amazing servers/​baristas. They are skilled and efficient, making outstanding crepes and drinks while keeping the steady waves of people coming in flowing smoothly. Each server (like Kate who I have had serve me in the couple of times I have been to NCC since my first visit) is very kind and welcoming. I am very impressed with these individuals!
The only downside of NCC is the limited number of tables inside. But time it right and you can snag one. Chances are, though, the excellent service will help move along the turnover of people so you can enjoy your crepes in house, in a really comfortable and relaxed atmosphere among the busy streets and energy of Boston. Give me that Tudor crêpe, though, and the second I have it within reach, I will not care where I eat it. (Don’t judge.)
Oh, well, another downside is that I live out of state. (Can you open another location in Connecticut, NCC?) This place is THAT good that I have made the effort to come here whenever I am in Boston.
If you did not understand by now, NCC: I am in love with your crepes, coffee, and service.
As soon as I hit post, I think I might be heading back to NCC. I need that Tudor crêpe and Bee Stinger latte in my life!

After getting pizza at Sweet Caroline’s, we walked around the corner for a mid-​day pick me up at Neighborhood’s.
My girlfriend used to live in Fenway so this was one of her old stomping grounds. I’m a devoted espresso fan and have a Jura at home, so I feel like a decent barista judge.
Since it was almost 90 degrees yesterday, iced drinks were the name of the game. I had a large (16oz) iced americano and Kristina had a large iced latte. They use Square for their point-​of-​sale system which prints your order for the barista at the other end of the bar.
I love watching baristas in action. Each shot requires the perfect grind, dose, and tamping. Espresso is a labor of love. Unfortunately, they only use 1 shot for a large (Starbucks does 2 shots in an iced grande). I would say the wait for your drink will be longer than Starbucks, but it will be worth the wait since they are doing everything by hand.
I loved the flavor — very earthy and rich. Just the right balance of bitterness.
The crepes looked AMAZING. They are huge! I’m thinking we will have to go back and get a burrito at El Pelon and a dessert crêpe at Neighborhoods.

Neighborhoods is in a quaint little area near Fenway that I didn’t know existed until a couple days ago. Then serendipitously a friend recommended that I eat here, and I had the chance to return.
The walls are white tiled, and there are five or so little wood tables for two (and outdoor seating in case you can’t get a spot inside). They had beautiful and fresh spring flowers in pink and white on the tables, and good light. I ordered the signature crêpe and a London fog (earl grey steeped in milk with vanilla). The place felt clean and welcoming. Most of the tables were dominated by people studying or on their laptops.
Though the food was a little slow to come out (and it is definitely a self service place, so set your expectations accordingly), it was nice not to be rushed and the food itself was pretty good. My crêpe had arugula, feta, mozzarella, tomato, and balsamic, and was appropriately sweet and savory, and not too limp (as many places serve them). The London fog was a little simple for its cost, but it was also a very good concept and I will seek to replicate it in my own kitchen.
(I will say — I saw the tuscan chicken crêpe come out, and it looked huge. So while I can’t technically vouch for it, if you’re hungry that may be the right choice.)
All in all, this was a nice spot to sit with a friend and talk over light food and coffee and tea drinks. She had the affogato and the croque monsieur crêpe, both of which were solid as well.
A slow place for a slow day. Don’t come here in a rush, but do come to chat and pontificate.

This is super cute café with made to order crepes. I got the simplicity crêpe which comes with nutella, bananas and/​or strawberries. The crêpe was surprisingly very crispy on the outside and not soft like I’ve had in the past at other restaurants. The crêpe was thick and delicious with ample nutella but could have used more fruit. I thought $ 6+ for a crêpe was a little pricey, but hey. maybe that’s just the going rate these days.
After scarfing down a monster burrito at El Pelon, come by this place for a nice after meal dessert!
