Best All-Day Cafe: Maven Sawyer Yards
Maven at Sawyer Yards earns Best All-Day Cafe with a menu that hits every mealtime and craving. Folks can pop in to dive into chef Nico Baizan de Aldecoa’s elevated yet approachable menu — deviled eggs with caviar, steak au poivre, spicy rigatoni, and cheeseburgers topped with “the best garlic aioli EVER,” plus breakfast favorites, a full kids’ menu and robust coffee and cocktail program. Outside, a vintage gas station canopy shelters a spacious, landscaped, dog-friendly patio overlooking Sawyer Yards, and a sliding front window makes pick-up and to-go orders a breeze. It’s the perfect all-day spot to sip, snack and linger.
