Caffè Bene
333 Massachusetts Ave, Boston, MA
Crema's Take
“This Korean chain brings a rare late-night coffee culture to Boston with a spacious, elegant hardwood interior that feels more like a retreat than a quick caffeine stop. Their specialty drinks and creative signature offerings draw regulars, though their matcha execution could use refinement, and they excel at breakfast fare like their acclaimed strawberry honey toast—making it ideal for lingering work sessions or meetings over quality coffee and pastries.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Open late.

Nothing but praise for the quality and the selection. Beautiful spacious hard wood lobby. I simply don’t understand why the chairs are wider than the tables. You have to rearrange furniture just to get in, and then lean over on the edge of a hard wooden chair the whole time -…
The matcha was not good at all. It was so powdery, didn’t blend. Couldn’t even have a bit. The person working there said matcha is little earthy and didn’t do anything about it. But no I’ve had matcha at every other place but this was bizarre This is the photo after 1 hr looks…
Amazing food and ample seating! Had the strawberry honey toast, a breakfast sandwich, coffee, and mango smoothie. Would highly recommend!
