Charles River Coffee House - Natick

Great neighborhood find! Loved the oat milk latte and toasted bagel with cream cheese. Looking forward to my next visit :

Morning Glory muffin not bad other ones are mediocre, over priced on sandwiches also.

Nice cozy coffee shop close to the Natick damn, they offer an amazing assortment of food/drinks. The staff are friendly and welcoming! I like to get the Elvis and a pumpkin spice latte!

A very nice place to stop for a coffee and snack. Seating is limited but there are a couple tables outside and next door is a park with plenty of chairs and benches.

I 've gone here dozens of times...I 've spent hours studying in this coffee shop. I 've seen a few people describe this place as 'dirty ' and 'expensive '. The thing is, it 's a locally run coffee shop, it 's not trying to be a suburb Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks or Sweetwater 's. The vibe it 's going for is rustic and small New England coffee shop. And to that Id say it hits it perfectly. I 've only had an issue finding a seat a handful of times. The staff are kind and helpful. The food and coffee are great IMO. The art and aesthetic give it a unique and relaxing feel. Like I said, it 's a small local New England coffee shop, it 's going to be alittle 'dirty ' at times, but I think it 's just the character it carries. In my opinion we need more of these places and less Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks.
