George Howell Coffee is truly a neighborhood gem, a perfect spot to catch up over a specialty coffee drink or grab lunch in between hitting the gym and grocery shopping. Owner Nik Krankl is committed to serving the freshest coffee and the most delicious sandwiches, crepes, salads and breakfast items. Beer and wine are also served by the friendly and knowledgeable counter staff--if you want to be the hero of the office, just ask them to hook you up with a box of "Joe to Go." The shop is accessible via the Newtonville stop on the MBTA Commuter Rail.
