Crema's Take

On the Grind Cafe's staff genuinely seem to care about what they're serving—they brew fresh coffee by the hour and nail seasonal signatures like a pumpkin chai latte that regulars rave about. Beyond drinks, the house-made pastries and sourdough are legitimately excellent, making this a rare spot where both the coffee and food deserve equal attention. If you want a friendly, unhurried place to actually sit and linger, this is Salem's answer.

What to expect

Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Nice staff. They make fresh coffee every hour. Amazing sour dough but. The guy and gal behind the counter top tier.

Very friendly staff! They are quick and efficient. I haven’t had a bad thing yet. Definitely a go-to for the morning breakfast run if you are in the area. The serve local coffee, which is good! Bagels and sandwiches are very good too.

I have gotten sandwiches here many times, in person and through delivery. It's great every single time. I love this place and the baked goods are delicious too. Definitely recommend this place. One of my favorite breakfast spots in Massachusetts.
