Crema's Take

Yego is a tucked-away Somerville gem that excels with espresso-forward drinks like silky flat whites and perfectly balanced cortados, paired with buttery pastries like their standout spinach feta croissant. The bright, airy space with high ceilings and natural light strikes that rare balance between laptop-friendly and genuinely inviting, making it feel like a local favorite that's earned its loyal following through consistency rather than hype. While opinions on their espresso vary, their pour overs and cold brew round out a thoughtfully curated menu that rewards both the discerning coffee drinker and the casual café visitor.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, laptop-friendly. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Indeed, a very well-made flat white! I really like the concept of this café and had been wanting to visit for a while. I ordered a flat white and a cold brew—both were excellent. They also offer pour-over options, though unfortunately, I visited at a time when they weren’t able…

Cortado was perfect, nice and strong. The spinach feta pastry would be better if it was heated to be hotter than lukewarm. Staff are great and the shop is spacious with high ceilings and natural light. Nice to have such a premium coffee place so close.
