Luxor Cafe

Crema's Take
“Luxor Cafe brings genuine warmth to Harvard Square with its beautifully decorated Egyptian-inspired space and staff that goes genuinely out of their way to make you feel welcome. Beyond their excellent traditional coffee, they're known for creative specialty drinks like rose matcha lattes and Middle Eastern–influenced sandwiches that pair perfectly with their pastries—it's the kind of place where you'll want to linger over conversation or work for hours. Whether you're after their viral-worthy Dubai chocolate creations or a quietly excellent espresso in a cozy, family-friendly setting, Luxor delivers on both the coffee craft and the human connection.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
