Our family’s favorite go-to spot for lunch or a coffee/work date . My husband and I take turns coming here when we have to work and it’s too chaotic at home or when we’re meeting up with coworkers. Also, a great brunch spot on the weekends when the in-laws visit, but it’s so popular on Sundays that you have to make sure to get there and grab a table before they’re all full up! Also, they start serving lemonade during the Summer season and it’s perfect for me, not too sweet and not too sour . Kudos!

I ordered several items from Temptations Cafe yesterday. While enjoying my tomato and chevre panini, I unexpectedly bit into something hard. I assumed it might be a tough stalk from fresh herbs, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a metal staple. This is both disgusting and bizarre. How could a staple even be near the food preparation area? It almost feels like a cruel joke or the result of a careless employee. Thankfully, I didn't injure myself, but it left me feeling uneasy about the rest of my order. Grub Hub was quick to issue a refund for the sandwich, but I believe they should have refunded the entire order, as I didn't feel comfortable eating anything else. Overall, this was a ridi...
I absolutely adore this local coffee shop for its extensive food selection, perfect for a long day of studying. The food is fresh and delicious, and I think the prices are reasonable for any spot in Brookline. I particularly enjoyed the Roasted Tomato & Chevre Panini – both the flavor and the portion size were fantastic! The seating is quite comfortable, although there are limited outlets. The music is at an ideal volume, allowing for easy conversations with friends or focused work. The staff were incredibly friendly! However, I wasn't a fan of the chai latte; I found it lacking in spice and sweetness. I also love that the café operates on solar power!
I noticed the Phantom Gourmet decal and knew I had to give this place a try. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming the moment I walked in. Being greeted with a smile instantly brightened my day. The plain bagel was delicious—soft and fresh with every bite. The plain cream cheese was airy and whipped, like a cloud from heaven. I’ll definitely be returning to sample more from their menu. Service: Takeaway Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $1–10 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

While visiting the area, I quickly fell in love with Temptations Cafe. The staff are friendly, the food is outstanding, and the atmosphere is wonderfully relaxing. I tried the bacon and avocado scramble, and it was fantastic! I also highly recommend the freshly squeezed orange juice.
I absolutely adore this café! Working in Coolidge Corner, I frequently order takeout from here, and the quality and freshness of the ingredients are unparalleled. I have never been disappointed. I highly recommend it—10/10!
