  We absolutely love Sunday Brunch at Cafe on the Common. The French Press coffee is always perfect, the deviled eggs with local hot sauce are absolutely crave-able, and the ever changing quiche and savory bread pudding is always a welcome surprise. Thoughtful touches like fresh orange and pomegranate seed garnishes are a total delight. We drive a half hour past many other breakfast spots to enjoy the scratch cooking, cozy dining room, and super warm hospitality of these sweet owners. Well worth the drive from wherever you are. Spend a few tranquil moments strolling on the common, checking out the shops, and sitting on a park bench under a big oak tree after brunch.

  There was a torrential downpour the Saturday I visited, but it seemed like every table was seated. People were cheerful and talking and laughing and enjoying their food. I started with a cocktail that was made with Satan’s Brew (from Deep Roots Distillery), sweet and dry vermouth, homemade cherry simple syrup and garnished with a slice of blood orange and a stemmed cherry. Delectable! I ordered a cup of cream of asparagus soup and it was beautiful too. It was garnished with three asparagus tips that had a little char on them. Just perfect. For my entree I ordered one of several specials: rabbit, wild rice and roasted beets. Amazing. Then I finished with a huge slice of warm homemade cherry pie topped with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. Everything was just perfect,—including the atmosphere and service. I was delighted to get to meet Jada and Dewy. I only wish I lived closer because I would be there ALL THE TIME! Highly recommend!!!

  Cafe on the Common is a true hidden gem in central MA. The owners are amazing people. They take the time to personally check in with each table and I have been amazed that they remember my family’s dietary restrictions, even if we haven’t been there in a while. They serve delicious , creative dishes and they always use fresh, seasonal, and local ingredients. Most recently, I had a veggie flatbread that was to die for with a side salad with a house-made mint vinaigrette that was unbelievable. Worth mentioning too, they make the best cocktails in the area. Perfect for the family or date night and a great place to check out live music as well. We love it!

  I have been here 3 or 4 times now and it's always fantastic. Tons of gluten free options (most everything), delicious home made food and tasty drinks as well. I took my mother yesterday for lunch and we both loved it. I had the Tomato Soup which was super hearty and possibly the best I've ever had and I also had the Reuben which comes with Kimchi and is grilled panini style, so good! Washed it all down with an Herbal Tea Hot Toddy which was perfect on a cold winter day.
  
  The place is super cute, great atmosphere, husband and wife owned. What more could you ask for?! Next time you're in the area, make sure to stop in and check out the Commonplace Market next door while you're there !

  Dropped in with my wife for a quick bite; We saw they had soups and salads available. We were impressed on how they elevated something quite as simple as that. Pretty good pricing too.
