Coffee and Tea

Dunkin Donuts

America, or at least Boston, runs on Dunkin. Located just down from the road from the MFA (and at a million other locations within the city limits), Dunkin Donuts offers coffee, tea, sandwiches, donuts, and more.

Starbucks

Curry Student Center, 346 Huntington Ave, Boston, MA 02115, USA

If you prefer your coffee a little more expensive and a little more international, you can always head to Starbucks. If you’re not sure what Starbucks is at this point, we’re not sure we can help you. Suffice it to say, they have plenty of options for coffees, teas, and snacks.

Pavement Coffeehouse

44 Gainsborough St, Boston, MA 02115, USA

Not a fan of coffee chains? Head over to Pavement Coffeehouse, conveniently situated a few blocks away from the Museum of Fine Arts. Pavement features high-end coffee, sandwiches and snacks in a loft-like environment.

Vegan and Juices

B.GOOD

B.GOOD serves health-conscious versions of fast food favorites, like french fries and burgers. You can also pick up a smoothie to take your meal on the road. Be sure to try the eggplant meatballs!

by CHLOE. Fenway

100 Van Ness St, Boston, MA 02215, USA

by CHLOE’s message is to eat well with a purpose and their menu reflects their values. There are tons of vegan and veggie options, from burgers to cinnamon rolls. You can also pick up hand-pressed juices and other delicious, refreshing beverages.

International Cuisine

Thaitation

129 Jersey St, Boston, MA 02215, USA

A cozy, charming cafe, Thaitation serves up different Thai specialties in a friendly atmosphere. Plus, if the weather is good, you can sit outside on the sidewalk while you enjoy your fried ice cream!

El Pelón Taqueria

92 Peterborough St, Boston, MA 02215, USA

A popular hole-in-the-wall serving authentic Mexican, El Pelon Taqueria is a favorite of the MFA crowd (and the crowd heading to Red Sox games, so prepare to wait if it’s game night). Try the El Guappo if you’re feeling really hungry!

Lucy Ethiopian Cafe

334 Massachusetts Ave, Boston, MA 02115, USA

Lucy Ethiopian Cafe is just a stone’s throw away from the Museum of Fine Arts. Tuck into a platter of warm food with some spongey injera bread. Lucy’s is a great way to end your museum adventure in a cozy, friendly atmosphere.
