The following is a “script” for one of Matt’s segments:
A lot of great things have come from the Merrimack Valley. Industry. Jack Kerouac. ME!
My latest find from my hometown region is Pressed Café, which has made its way from Nashua, NH to Newton (by way of Burlington), taking over one of the many vacant spaces on Needham Street and already taking the neighborhood by storm!
And with good reason! As a coffee shop, Pressed Café offers George Howell blends, as well as espressos, many flavors of latte (hot or iced), and their famed Golden Mylk (spelled with a “y”) that includes steamed almond and coconut milk along with fresh ginger and turmeric root and cinnamon. It is a real pick me up that is good for your whole body!
Speaking of good for you, Pressed Café also offers a wide range of freshly (and impressively quickly) made smoothies, including my daughter’s favorite- the Fruit Cup, which is packed with fresh berries, melon, pineapple and grapes. They also press their own juices, including the beet-based Vegan Vampire, a blueberry aguafresca, and an energizing Whisky Shot, which combines ginger, turmeric, lemon, and a dash of Cayenne pepper. WOW!
If you want more spark in your drink, they will be opening a bar soon that will combine their juices with firewater and other mixers.
On the edible side, Pressed Café serves breakfast all day and also has bowls, burritos, salads, soups, and a set of shakshuka that takes your taste buds around the world and back. As the name suggests, they also offer pressed sandwiches and Panini that range from Californian to Israeli.
To say they have something for everyone is an understatement. So I recommend you get started on the massive and consistently quality-minded menu now!
