Stoked Wood Fired Pizza Co.

Great music, great beer list (lots of local craft beers), and amazing, fun, creative food menu! Their pepperoni with honey pizza is a must. They also have really fun boozy milkshakes! Cocktails are also solid. Gets super busy real quick, especially thurs-sat, but the wait is worth it (they don’t take reservations). They also take take-out orders. Overall awesome, friendly staff & fun atmosphere makes for a perfect date-night.

cafe

Caffè Nero

Great spot for studying or meeting a friend for coffee and a tasty snack! Brewed coffee always tastes fresh and strong. Their mocha specialty drink is perfect for an afternoon pick me up; not too sweet - it’s a perfect blend of chocolate and espresso :)

Clear Flour Bakery

Bread, pastries, cookies!! This place might as well be in Paris. The level of baking mastery here is superb! It always comes with a line but it is worth the wait. Anything you pick from their daily bake line up will be a win!

Brookline Booksmith

Such a great place to browse & find a great book. They have their own book club and frequently have guest authors in store promoting/discussing their new books. Employee recommendations are posted throughout the store, so if you need a little guidance/why to pick up a book - this is your spot. Their ‘Bargain book’ tables are awesome - you can find books that are in great shape for as little as $8. They also sell other knick knacks, like daily planners, calendars, etc.
