This was my first time here and it will not be the last. I went during rush hour but they moved fairly quickly. It's a fun vibe with beautiful art displayed. The customer service was great and the workers were very friendly. The food was phenomenal I highly recommend you trying it if you're in that area. I had the haddock with salsa, rice and peas. Only downfall was that their was not much seating.Customer service: 5Food: 5 More...

Welcoming, cozy, clean, free wifi, and lots of cool events. I wish there was a place like this closer to me, but it's definitely worth the bus trip from Dorchester! One-of-its-kind in Boston.

A wonderful local coffee shop. Someone should host a play-reading there, comfy! You could enjoy good theatre from a leather sofa. Yes, let’s do it again!

I needed to kill some time before a meeting in Roxbury and thought this would be the perfect spot to do so. It's a cute neighborhood spot in an area where there aren't many options. My reason for giving it 4 stars is because the hours on here are wrong. They close at 4, which left me with an hour to kill. More...

Very cute little cafe in the Roxbury Dudley neighborhood. On Saturday mornings, there is usually live music playing. WiFi is good and they even offer to print materials for you (although I've never used this service before). Also, good bakery selection. Just tried the lemon poppyseed muffin today and surprised myself by really enjoying it. Lastly, I'm not sure if this is true but the few times I've went, I have been able to find a table to do work unlike other places I've gone to trying to get work done during high traffic times More...

The atmosphere is great, there is a strong sense of community and they have VEGAN OPTIONS! They have delicious, healthy bowls and sandwiches. Also, their prices are super reasonable. Their mint soy matcha latte and the Malcom sandwich is my go to lunch when I'm in the area for work. Their bread, from Fornax in Rozzie I think, is so good! More...

A pleasant artistic code house cafe with good food.I ordered the Arya's Bowl with was excellent. I love curry and it was well done with a generous portion. All my food appeared fresh, and the bowl was prepared within view of the register.There were a few pre-made items in a case for quick take out.The cafe is modern, clean, with soft music. The bathrooms were very clean, and the staff was helpful, polite, knowledgable, and understanding of a new customer.I would definitely return if in the area. More...

I went there for brunch and it was really cute! There is an area where you can eat outside and enjoy the sun. The inside was nice, open, and inviting. They even had a live music inside. The atmosphere is super chill and their egg sandwiches are. I would definitely recommend those. After you order, you can grab a seat and they will call your name. The owner called my name wrong and my friends laughed and he was super embarrassed and insisted on knowing the correct prononciation. I thought that was super nice!Definitely check it out! More...

So great to have this place right at Dudley Station! I was curious about the impact of having a place like this open right down the block from Haley House Bakery + Cafe, but both seem to be packed most of the time. A comfortable spot to sit down with a small group or read a book over some coffee or a sandwich. They often have live music, which is great. More...

You ever watch Insecure? Issa Rae would be all here tryna find the man of her dreams while eating their fire Yogurt bowl with fresh fruits and grains. It's got a comfortable vibe where you can get great conversation and comfort food that may or may not contradict your diet goals. But they have healthy options too. This isn't a ya problem, it's more of a you problemEither way the vibe is great. More...

I love this spot! I've been here a handful of times and usually get some type of bowl. The tilapia bowl (I'm forgetting the actual name) is pretty tasty. I like the seating, it's comfortable and there is a lot of natural light. The employees are always warm and always nice to me when I come in. I really love Dudley Cafe's commitment to social justice and being a central location for organizers to host events. Overall a thumbs up and a staple whenever I'm in the area. More...

In the middle of a busy Dudley square, you pass by a public piano on your way in the door. On their outside patio, people are eating in formal business attire while others are covered in paint wearing hardhats; always a good sign. Their staff was courteous and their menu was very appropriately sized, large enough to accommodate everyone but small enough to do everything well. Offering both whole and half sized sandwiches I got Dudley's Favorite. That with an incredible iced coffee was just what I was looking for on this summer afternoon. The atmosphere is welcoming, the food is great as well as the coffee. If you're in the neighborhood, it would be a mistake to skip. More...

Dudley Cafe wow, where do I start? The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The vocalist were both very good and entertaining. The staff if I must say so, were friendly and courteous. Overall I had a great experience compared to my first encounter when I inadvertently left my cookies at the counter. Great place to mix and mingle. See you guys again soon!! More...

Good place. They have a brunch special that is 10 bucks and you add a mimosa for I think 2-3 bucks more! It comes with french toast, quiche, fruit and bacon. Very filling, came in a cute little bento box.It was actually really good, and so filling. The quiche was actually really good not dry at all, it was vegetarian. The bacon was crispy and delicious as bacon should be.Also, they offer a vegetarian bento brunch too! They only serve beer and wine but for the food options it's great! Make sure to get there early, once they run out of food that's it.i'm definitely coming back to try lunch! More...

This was my first time here and it was an overall great experience. Got a sandwich called "The Dudley Favorite". Usually I'm a very basic sandwich kind of person (turkey, bacon, extra cheese, mayo) and at first was nervous about getting a sandwich with things I would never personally add (red peppers, Guacamole, topping other than mayo, etc) but I was pleasantly surprised how flavorful the sandwich was. The chicken was very seasoned well and full of flavor. I added bacon that was thick cut and tasted like it was recently cooked . Great sandwich paired with chips and drink. My only concern was that the person making my sandwich didn't change their gloves between making other orders. At one point I saw them wash their hands with the gloves on . I felt myself about to say something but then just said, "don't be that guy today". Not that I felt they weren't being clean, just saying...Also be sure to look up above the line because they have a burrito and taco menu in addition to their main menu. I only realized this after placing my order. Not a big deal, but I may have ordered a burrito if I had saw it. Don't let my small observations stop you from trying this place. It was well worth it!

Everything about Dudley Street Cafe is correct. The beautiful artwork, the diverse menu, the amazing Jazz band for Brunch and the great service and atmosphere in general. The "Roxbury" was the best thing I've encountered on an English muffin, like ever! Literally could not stop saying how delicious this meal was...I will be back and I come from NyC so that's saying a lot. This was much needed in the neighborhood! More...
