Hillside Cafe

Crema's Take

“Tucked into Newton, this cozy spot has mastered the art of the leisurely hangout, with a college-chill vibe that feels like a natural gathering place for long conversations over coffee. Their creative signature drinks like the Screamin' Eagle showcase real care in execution, though be prepared that specialty craftsmanship and a prime campus location come with higher price tags. It's the kind of place where you can sink into an afternoon with a well-made cold brew and decent sandwich, assuming you don't mind trading your wallet for atmosphere.”
