From the outside the shop has a nice charm and draws you in. I love the little spoon in the cement below the door. Upon entering the store there are so many wonderful smells and the staff there nearly always greet you as you enter. The decorum could use some updatting. I really like the cozy vintage vibe, however some of the furniture come off as a little too old and worn down. Most of the furniture inside the store is very dark too which kind of throws you off from the bright purple, bubbly outside that the store has. The staff are phenomenal. They make you feel right at home and taken care of. My very first time I went to the Sugar Bowl I didnt realize it was cash only (a small draw back) and the staff gave me a small, delicious coffee on the house. Ive been coming back ever since! The baked goods, coffee, foods, and staff make this place a must visit!

This is a great little spot that the locals love. It is extremely cozy always. Me and my mom love going there and getting coffee and sandwiches and we sit down and talk which has spots near the window and spots in the back that are more mellow and quiet to relax and enjoy your coffee with friends. I definitely would recommend going there and trying it! Especially there desserts!

The owner is very aggressive and unfriendly. As soon as I walked in to set my stuff down and find a seat, she immediately ran over to me to inform me that I need to purchase something to be in her establishment. She did not even give me a chance to settle down before she bombarded me. It made for a rather uncomfortable atmosphere for the remainder of my visit.

Very good. Fav in dorchester, better than new yuppie spots - authenticlly comfortable and neighborhood staple. Great coffee and food. Love the comfy furniture. Nice place to relax and meet a friend or grab something on the go. Cash only, but worth planning ahead for. The type of place that makes a neighborhood special. Please dont go the hipster route!

Good coffee and good food. Very comfy couches. Cash only. Great place if your planning on hanging out for awhile, but it might not be the best choice if youre looking to grab something quick to go.

Would have been great if the girl that checked us out wasnt unbelievably rude. Nice atmosphere but she ruined it so much Im sitting here writing this before my first sip of coffee.

I enjoy this place a lot. There are very few independently owned coffee shops around anymore. This place is wonderful and the people that work there are really nice.

Delicious coffee flavors and they let my dog inside. So thats great. Ridiculously slow service but I know that walking in so overall its a good neighborhood joint

I thought the show Arthur is based off this location but it isnt so I was slightly disappointed. Other than that, great ice cream and I like their comfy seats.

I really loved this nice coffee shop: good coffee, and humongous breakfast sandwich that is great to eat!
