Never had a bad experience at this place. Food comes out fast, drinks are always correct, and staff always friendly. Big fan of the bagels and sandwiches here, and the price is more than fair. Only problem I've ever had is waiting in the long line that often forms outside. read more

I love this coffee shop! I've tried their cold brew, lattes, and breakfast sandwiches and they were all amazing. Workers are very friendly too! read more

It has finally came and it's amazing to have a coffee shop in the area. The coffee is good and the people are friendly. I'm especially happy about the breakfast sandwiches, on your choice of bagel, croissant, brioche, etc. at a pretty darn good price if you don't get the meat option. And if you do, there is veggie meat and it is delicious! read more

My husband and I have been waiting for a good coffee shop to open in Mission Hill, and have been loving Solid Ground! Coffee is always fantastic, food is delicious, and Keith + Lucia (the owners) are always the absolute sweetest. There isn't a lot of seating, but we haven't had problems in the past finding a table - people seem to be in and out pretty regularly, if they aren't taking it to-go. We highly recommend Solid Ground! read more

Discovered this restaurant when I stayed at a nearby hotel. Was looking for a place that I could get a simple breakfast and good cup of coffee. Solid Ground met the criteria. The cafe limited number of customers at one time due to Covid. Food is takeout only so if you're looking for a place to drink or eat, this is not for you. I ordered a bagel and egg sandwich which was well prepared and tasty. Coffee was freshly brewed and good as well. Although it's not a standard item on the menu, I was able to get a decaf Americano. Good food and service. I would return if I'm in the area. read more

I've had the cappuccino here, the pastries and the breakfast sandwiches. The food and coffee are good. The coffee is roasted a bit on the acidic side for my taste, but your mileage may vary. The staff is nice, and the decor is simple but cute. read more

Great coffee! Good place to pull out a laptop to get some work done. Most importantly, I feel pretty good about supporting a local coffee shop in the Brigham Circle area. Really clean, new, and nice interior. read more

Awesome cafe! The staff is friendly and quick, and they have a nice variety of sandwich and breakfast offerings. This morning I got a latte (which actually has some foam on it, nice!) and two of the honey butter biscuits with strawberry jam, which I highly recommend. They're the perfect combo of sweet and salty. I can't wait to come back and try more! Definitely a friendly, inviting environment - I love the succulent wall. read more

The bagels are great, the cream cheese is great, the coffee is great, and the owners are awesome. Great place to get some work done or meet up with a friend. And the music is on point. This is going to be my go to for coffee, bagels, or a breakfast sandwich as long as I'm in Mission Hill. Oh yea, and they have pork roll. read more

Love this place!! I've gone every Saturday morning since they've opened. The Cereal Milk Latte is SO delicious! Create your own breakfast sandwich (the Wake Up sandwich) is incredible especially on the brioche. The menu is is really creative and the space is so cool, exactly what the neighborhood needed. Must try! read more

My boyfriend and I are typically repeat customers of this cafe, grabbing breakfast here around twice a week. We had an experience today that completely soured our overall feelings of the restaurant. I placed an online order for 2 sandwiches and 1 coffee at noon. My boyfriend went to pick it up at 12:30 as we were told to upon ordering, and we didn't receive our order until 1:00 PM. He watched other people constantly order and get served before our food was ready. My name on the order was wrong, and it was under my last instead of my first when BOTH were on the order. I understand that misunderstandings and mistakes happen, but I work for an establishment VERY similar to this, and when a customer is waiting that long and asking what's up 20+ times as he did something further should be done by the employees to fix the problem. They did not try to help him solve the issue at all. I don't believe we'll be returning anymore at all. read more

I love Solid Ground! The owners are super nice and always come up with great lattes of the month. My favorite foods there are the rock solid sandwich and the mini babingka. Whenever people ask me for coffee or food recommendations in the area, I always tell them to go to solid ground. read more

Super good. I had an incredible latte here. Their coffee is just delicious. And it gives me a really nice, calming energy. The sandwich (Lucia) I got here was very good as well. I watched them make it and noticed that they seem quite hygienic. All food items were covered, gloved hands, cap on, and the employee did not rush. One of the best coffees I've ever had, definitely beating out Starbucks. read more

amazing owners, super sweet. such a gem in the mission hill area. would definitely recommend the lavender matcha

I love Solid Ground. Their coffee and espresso drinks are great and so are their breakfast sandwiches. It's so nice having this little cafe in Mission Hill. read more

Solid Ground Cafe is how I get through the pandemic! A visit to this cafe will be sure to lift your spirits as well. This amazing, local cafe serves a variety of coffee, tea, sweet treats, breakfast sandwiches and lunch options! Everything I order is delicious, made with fresh ingredients and served with a smile (even if it is behind the mask). The staff here is excellent, taking great pride in this local gem! You can order and pay online for additional contactless options or pop in the ultra clean shop to place your to-go order in person. They also sell Speedwell Coffee if you prefer to brew a cup at home or from time to time they offer some deliciously homemade jars of jam. Be sure to stop by often to taste their rotating latte of the month or special iced teas! Can you tell I love this place? Give it a try, support local and you too will love this local gem. read more

We were visiting the Mission Hill neighborhood this morning and were looking for somewhere to get a good cup of coffee and something to eat. We stopped in at Solid Ground Cafe at Brigham Circle, and boy, are we glad we did!! They have a very extensive menu with lots to choose from, a huge variety of breakfast sandwiches, lunch items, and lots of great coffees, lattes, etc. The items we had were delicious, breads were awesome, and coffee was terrific! The decor for this adorable shop is perfect, and most importantly, the staff is VERY FRIENDLY AND EFFICIENT!! If you live or work in the neighborhood, we highly recommend you visit Solid Ground. I know it's going to end up at the top of your list of go-to establishments in the area!! We will definitely be back. Reasonable prices, too. read more

I LOVE Solid Ground. They make the best egg sammie I've ever had! Get it on an English muffin - they are almost donut-like, so clearly amazing. One of the few good breakfast places in the Longwood area. The coffee is also delicious! Thank god Covid didn't stop them from reopening read more

I love going here and, in better days, I would go after exercising, eat some wonderful sweet, get a coffee and listen to the news. Luisa and Keith are local folks and it is good to know that you can call and pick up an order for take-out. Help support local business. Try this out! They have a great oatmeal cookie that are home-made! read more

Great local cafe with unique drinks and sweets. They also offer breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Their homemade ube (purple yam) pie is amazing and their monthly lattes are also quite good. The past two months' were black sesame and starwberries and cream lattes and they were very well made. read more

Wandered into a little bit of paradise this morning. Nice place, great coffee and lovely people. Will definitely come back!!

Fun, unique cafe! Has great drinks and unique desserts and treats! I get the iced latte which is very good, and I love their cereal bar treats and cookies. Its conveniently located close to longwood medical area so it's a great place to stop by when you're by there or if you're at stop and shop. Check out their Instagram too! read more

This place has great espresso drinks and some baked goods and food items. It's small with some tables, but they get orders out quickly. The atmosphere is laid back and they play great alternative music. read more

Great coffee. Great lunch and breakfast sandwiches. They have salads and baked goods too but I can't speak to those. Always a great experience. read more

Stopped by for lunch before a medical appointment up the street. I wanted something that would hold me for a long afternoon. Ordered the Rock Solid breakfast sandwich. Delicious!! I think the honey mustard is the key. Slightly sweet but, still savory. Friendly service and reasonable prices. Will be back! read more

Taylor ham, egg, and cheese on Boston's best bagel reminds me of being back home in NJ. Great staff as well!

This place is - wait for it! - Solid! Friendly staff, good location, cool music and above all great food, especially their English muffins, in which they show the ability to transform the perennially nondescript breakfast item into a breakfast all-star! read more

Couldn't be happier with the coffee and food. It's Awesome to have locally owned coffee shop in the area. Going to be my daily pick me up in 2019! read more
