Teele Square Café
When I moved from East Cambridge to West Somerville, it was very hard to say goodbye to the trustworthy 2nd Street Cafe. But unbeknownst to me, Jonathan Adelson, the owner and operator of 2nd Street Cafe, would follow me a year later, with the opening of the Teele Square Cafe. This cozy, bright, and rustic space (formerly occupied by Soleil Cafe) provides exactly what this neighborhood was missing: solid, substantial, inexpensive sandwiches. Dave's Fresh Pasta in Davis Square has been the go-to spot for good sandwiches round these parts for a while, but Teele Square is a nice change of pace from Dave's high prices and looong lines. Teele's also has an extensive breakfast menu and a rotating selection of hearty, delicious soups served in generous portions. My only grievance is that their menu could stand a little expansion, because I know they've got the talent to pull it off. But Teele Square Cafe still gets extra points with me because they supply me with the other thing I miss most about East Cambridge: Christina's Ice Cream. Now if I could just get the Cambridgeside Galleria to move to West Somerville, too, I'd be all set.
