New Leaf Espresso
310 Highland Ave, Medford, MA
Crema's Take
“New Leaf Espresso is a wonderfully unconventional spot that doubles as a barbershop, creating a genuinely cool and welcoming atmosphere that keeps people coming back. Their baristas craft exceptional specialty drinks with creative touches—think cardamom bitters lattes and SF mint cold brew—while their partnership with a top local bakery means you're getting pastries that actually deserve the coffee they're paired with. The staff's infectious friendliness and the shop's chill, unique vibe make it feel less like a transaction and more like stepping into a space where you're genuinely wanted.”

Incredible drinks, incredible vibes~ Love how cozy it feels, and everything I've had from here has been delicious - their chai latte has a lovely spicy punch and is not too sweet, and their winter solstice latte tastes like a warm hug :) I'll definitely be going back often to try more of their menu!
If you're confused when you walk up its both a barber and coffee shop! The atmosphere is really nice, their iced mocha is great, and I got a fantastic doughnut! Highly recommended! (They do not have wifi as far as I'm aware fyi)
Super friendly service, chill unique atmosphere, great specialty drinks, partnered with one of best bakeries around Somerville — what’s not to like? Look forward to becoming a regular. This shop has gone under our radar for too long and very much deserves to make it big!
SUCH a cute little coffee shop. It’s also a barbershop, and the aesthetic feels very cool and welcoming. I really liked the latte with cardamom bitters — I often struggle with flavored coffee being too sweet, but this was perfect! I came at a quiet time, there isn’t a lot of seating but I was able to get such a comfortable chair. I wish I lived closer to here, I would definitely come here very often!
Great vibes, excellent coffee! Loved the SF mint cold brew!! Barista is extra friendly and the barbershop staff are great!
