Deluna Cafe

deluna cafe sits on burleigh street like it's been there forever, though you get the sense it hasn't. the kind of place where baristas actually taste your shot before sending it out. not because they have to, but because they care. with 4.7 stars from 224 reviews, the numbers tell part of the story. but numbers can't capture how the steam wand hisses just right, or why people walk past three chain stores to get here. there's something about the way they handle milk, hot enough to bloom the coffee's sweetness without scalding it into submission. regulars queue before 8am, checking phones while inhaling that sharp, bright smell of beans hitting hot water. cambridge has plenty of coffee shops. it has fewer places that remember how you take yours.
