Forge Baking Company - Somerville

Great coffee, baked goods, and sandwiches! The bread is heavenly. Great vegan options too. Highly recommend!

Over a 15 min wait for a breakfast sandwich when it’s not busy and barely anyone in the cafe. Not really acceptable.

We ordered sandwiches for catering for a running event. Our contact was kind and easy to work with, and the sandwiches were delicious! The bread is amazing.

Lavender latte was really good--nice lavender flavor and not too sweet like many places. I also got a bagel and cream cheese though idk if I'd call it a bagel, it was more like a chewy roll. It tasted fine, but wasn't really what I was expecting. This cafe is located in a small shopping plaza so there is a decent amount of parking, but I still had to park a bit further down the lot in front of another store.

I basically wrote my dissertation here. Thanks Forge. Great vibes, great coffee, great food. I did buy too many $17 salads here but maybe that's what food should cost if staff are being paid a living wage? Love that there's so much space to get some work done without feeling like you're being *that* customer that won't vacate their seat. I've also made real friends at the big square table where you're forced to sit next to new faces nice social gathering spot for this part of Somerville.
