3 Little Figs
278 Highland Ave, Somerville, MA
Crema's Take
“3 Little Figs in Somerville has earned a devoted following for their exceptional blueberry scones and freshly baked pastries that punch above their price point, paired with thoughtfully pulled espresso drinks. The no-laptop policy creates a genuinely social atmosphere where the friendly staff keeps the line moving with impressive speed despite consistent crowds, making it feel more like visiting friends than waiting. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or settling in with a Market sandwich that balances sweet fig jam with savory prosciutto and goat cheese, this place delivers the kind of care and quality that keeps people coming back.”
