Brothers & Sisters Co. is a small, busy coffee shop in a historic brick building near the Green Line in Brookline Village. It offers lattes, drip coffee, and matcha, with Atomic Coffee Roasters blends from Salem, Massachusetts. Espresso is available as the house option, and a red chile tea latte provides a lower-caffeine alternative with a spicy kick, customizable with milk and house-made syrup. An all-day bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich comes with house-made Dijonmayo and multiple bread and bagel choices. A community fridge outside the cafe, called Jennifer Coolfridge, supports neighborhood donations and take-what-you-need access using sealed, labeled foods while avoiding nuts, pork, and shellfish. The shop is especially crowded during morning and lunch rushes, so patience helps while waiting for the line to move.
"Brothers & Sisters Co. in Brookline Village is the ideal neighborhood coffee shop, a cozy, bustling space owned by local Jamie Siracusa. Tucked into a historic brick building on Station Street, right near the Green Line, this tiny coffee shop keeps the neighborhood loaded with lattes, drip coffee, and matcha. In the summer, you can also snag an ice cream from the Jamie's Ice Cream Co. window next door."
"Brothers & Sisters Co. uses Atomic Coffee Roasters blends from the roastery in Salem, Massachusetts. Its espresso is the house option as well. If you're trying to cut down on caffeine, try the red chile tea latte ($4.90), a softer alternative to espresso but still with a spicy kick. Get it with any milk and balance out the spice with a house-made syrup if desired."
"The forever-popular bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich ($9.50) is available all day and gets an elevated kick from a house-made Dijonmayo sauce. Choose from a plain, sesame, or everything bagel, a seven-grain, or gluten-free bread. Brothers & Sisters Co. also runs a community fridge situated outside the cafe and affectionately known as Jennifer Coolfridge."
"Anyone can donate items to keep the fridge stocked or take what they need. If you want to donate, bring store-bought, sealed foods with clear labels and avoid nuts, pork, and shellfish because of common allergies. It gets crazy packed in this tiny coffee shop, especially during the morning and lunch rushes. Patience is key. Find a spot to tuck yourself into when the line wraps around the entryway and wait it out."
