Quick info
About Bould Brothers Coffee
Bould Brothers Coffee is a specialty coffee shop at 88 Regent St in Cambridge, built around coffee and sweets that follow the seasons. Dogs are welcome inside, so owners can bring them along for a coffee. The drinks include the flat white and the moka latte, and the pastry selection includes cinnamon buns. That selection is small and can sell out. The space is compact with limited seating, so it is not suited to large groups. Oat milk is available for coffee.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the coffee itself, with several calling it some of the best they have had and one praising a moka latte and another a latte as delicious. Close behind is the staff, described repeatedly as friendly and lovely. The cinnamon buns come up as tasty, and a blondie gets a mixed response, balancing the bitterness for one reviewer and just ok for another. Others mention an oat milk option, a relaxing vibe, a unique and whimsical look, and outdoor seating, though a few note the small space is not suited to large groups. The complaints are about value and consistency. One reviewer found the place expensive, another felt service was slow for the price, with an empty sugar pot answered by being told sugar was on the table, and the fresh tea arriving in a smaller serving than expected. One found the flat whites to be warm, milky coffees with none of the foam art shown in photos. Food choice is also a theme, with one visitor finding only croissants and cinnamon rolls and another arriving to sold-out pastries.

“The staff is lovely, the coffee is amazing, and they play very fun music!! My moka latte was wonderful!! It is also close to the botanical garden & about 8 min walk from train station. I would definitely recommend!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☕️🩷”

“Amongst the best coffees I've ever had. And the cinnamon buns are delicious. I don't leave reviews normally but this place deserved it.”

“The top choice in Cambridge for coffee. This branch has a nice selection of seating, and the product is top tier. Delicious and flavourful coffee alongside a small but appealing selection of edible treats. Staff are always friendly too!”
- Parveen
“Lovely coffee shop with beautiful interior and really friendly staff. The latte was absolutely delicious! The only minor disappointment was that all the pastries were sold out when I visited. Would definitely visit again :)”

“Nice coffee, thankfully oat milk option (yes, you can’t be always lucky enough to find🤷🏻♀️), fresh pastries. It is a bit expensive tbh, but they have friendly staff.”
