Coffee by day, wine bar by night. The space is beautiful - high ceilings, exposed beams, Central Square industrial chic. Great for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. The kind of place where you can spend an entire day.

1369 Coffee House
Inman Square coffee institution. Been here forever, feels like someone's living room. Great for reading, working, or just existing. The iced coffee is perfect. Not trying to be trendy, just trying to be good. Exactly what a coffee shop should feel like.
