Blank Street Coffee might be small in size, but it delivers big on flavor and friendliness. Located just steps from Harvard, this cozy nook is perfect for a quick pick-me-up between classes or during a stroll through the square. Their lattes, matcha drinks, and chai are always consistent, and the pastries—like their blueberry muffins or almond croissants—make it hard to leave with just one item. The minimalist design and calming colors make for a relaxed space, even if seating is limited. Service here is one of the highlights: baristas are kind, patient, and always down to recommend a drink if you’re unsure. Blank Street has built a loyal following for a reason—it keeps things simple, quality-focused, and affordable. Whether you’re stopping in for your usual or trying something new, the experience is quick, clean, and satisfying. It’s a small shop with a big sense of community and care.
