I want to give this place more stars because my breakfast sandwich was really good. But like the other reviews say, the staff is pretty rude. I get up to the counter and order a bacon egg and cheese...

It's the doughnuts that give it the 3-star rating... and the coffee, which is solid. Staff is cold and a bit rude and I have to agree that the stroller crowd is annoying. I make babies cry when they...

Yummy drinks and food, but a bit pricey. Plenty of place to chill out and read on comfy chairs.

Ok, I go here on Tuesday around 11:30 AM and they told my boyfriend that they couldn't toast his croissant? UHHHHH..... I got a grilled sandwich but you couldn't toast the croissant? LAZY! $16 for an...

I used to be a huge fan of Zumes just until up about a month ago. I was ordering 3 shots of espresso over ice and then adding some milk. After ordering one morning, one of the owners came up to me...

Cute coffee shop - I felt very "rural college town" when I was inside. A decent sized space (by the photos here I assumed it was tiny.) You can sit at the bar by the front window (5 or so seats?) and...

This is a great place for coffee/paper minus the rude staff and screaming kids which they seem to cater to. I'll drive to Starbucks where they are always pleasant and chill in peace or hit DD across...

I wish I could say that I love Zume's because I love the concept of it - and I actually do get my coffee there some mornings, and other mornings at Dunkin Donuts. It all depends on whether I feel like...

Excellent sandwiches, soups, salads and CAFFEINE!! Yes, it is a bit pricey, but you are paying for the quality. And they handle my (at times) obnoxious "please add this" or "take off that please"...

This place should have nailed 5 stars no worries from me. It's convenient to my house, it's a coffee shop in a neighborhood that desperately needed a cofee shop.That being said, I can't bring myself...

A great locally owned shop. Always a place to sit and enjoy you coffee and snack or sandwich.The only draw back is for those who don't like kids. Seems to be a bit of a hang out for moms during the...

I moved to Charlestown last spring and I have to say, I love Zume's. First and foremost, they make great coffee. The latte's are strong with not too much foam (as has happened elsewhere). Other...

Coffee whore, right here.I work at the school down the street and coming in every day at 6 a.m. is killer without coffee. I bounce back and forth between Zume's and Dunkin's depending on my mood. I...

Best of Charlestown for sure (unless you wanna spend some quality time with the foreign tourists who chill at Sorelle). Their coffee is strong and they have these donuts from Saugus that are the size...

They serve pretty decent coffee and tea as well as sweet snacks (no chance to try sandwiches). Locally owned and run, it's nice to have a good alternative to starbucks.I hear it gets busy during...

Zume's is a welcome addition to Charlestown. It's a good place to chill on a Sunday morning with a cup of tea and the paper. It's not, however, a good place to work-- the wireless is spotty, you...

I love Zume's! I treat myself every weekend for breakfast. It's a tad on the pricey side but well worth it. I would recommend their bagels (whole grain) and their donuts. OMG the donuts! They get them...

I was on a fairly large job in Charlestown over the past winter, so when it was time for coffee, somebody always went to Zume's. I was happy with the coffee, though through some human error I have...

I like this place. Too bad I'm rarely in Charlestown or I'd stop in much more often. The prices are a bit higher than most coffee houses, but I'm more than happy to support a local business that...

Is there anyone else that thinks it's a it unfair to chage a additonal 40 cents for soy milk? Look, I know a gallon of cow's milk costs around $4 bucks and a gallon of soy costs around $6...
