About The Well Coffee House
The Well Coffee House is a nonprofit coffee shop in Boston that offers premium coffee and delicious pastries. Located near the harbor, it is an ideal spot for chatting, studying, or enjoying time with friends. The coffee house focuses on giving back to the community by collecting donations instead of tips, which are directed to a local nonprofit each month. Visitors appreciate the inviting atmosphere, spacious venue, and friendly staff and volunteers. The cozy decorations, especially during the holidays, create a warm environment. Guests can sit back, relax, or catch up on emails in comfortable areas. The menu covers all coffee basics and features specialty drinks with clever names, like the butter beer latte that many find exciting. The drink options include favorites like coldbrew and unique lattes, along with oversized, warmed bakery items. The Well also features local artists, hosts live music and events, and creates a cozy environment that feels like home. Many customers enjoy the strong mocha, which is also more affordable than nearby spots, and the almond joy iced latte, which is delicious and reasonably priced. The shop is appreciated for its community support, as it donates to various charities each month, giving it a genuine and positive mission. Customers also like how close it is to public transportation and often visit before flights, enjoying the friendly staff and the variety of coffee options like maple-flavored drinks. There is a small charge for requesting light or no ice, and many visitors use the space to work or relax with friends in a cozy setting.
The mocha was on the pleasantly strong side, both for the coffee and the taste of mocha itself. It also is much cheaper than at other spots nearby.
However, the most impressive part of this local coffee shop is the fact that it is a nonprofit and supports different charities each month! It feels genuine and positive in pursuing its mission. They also appear to be faith-based, though there is no religious iconography in the store - I only noticed a reference to a Christian Bible verse through the wifi.
Whenever I am flying home I use the bounce app to leave my bags while I run around the city before my flight! Now its my go to place for coffee. The staff is always extremely friendly. Close to all public transportation. Definitely go here. I love the maple flavored coffees!
The almond joy iced latte was delicious. ~$7 total. I like how they donate to nonprofits. I did notice they charge .50- .74 cents if you ask for light/no ice. Many people were inside working as there are several tables.
