Spells Coffee Shop & Market

boston's specialty coffee scene runs deep, from the third-wave roasters anchored in the south end to the quieter spots that locals protect like they own them. spells coffee shop & market sits on north street in salem, massachusetts, which puts it just north of the city and right in a neighborhood with serious foot traffic and a lot of history. salem isn't a footnote. if you're making a trip out here, or you already live nearby, this is the kind of place that holds its own against anything you'd find closer to downtown. locally well regarded, independently run, and operating as both a coffee shop and a market, which means the stop can do more than just fuel you up. worth building into your morning before north street gets busy.
