★★★★★ 5.0 Hannah Rasmussen · Feb 2026

First time here and we absolutely loved it! We weren’t planning on having drinks, but the Valentine’s menu caught our eye — such a cute mix of coffee options and alcoholic drinks. I ordered the Venetian stacker and my husband had the jalapeño grilled cheese with bacon added and a cup of their soup on special. The candied jalapeños were amazing 🤤 — so good. The service was wonderful from start to finish, and everyone working was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back!

Such a cute addition to Melrose! Some Like It Hot absolutely nailed it. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and you can tell a lot of heart went into this place. Shanna is an incredible owner — so friendly and hands-on. Ethan is a fantastic bartender and makes the experience even better. The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully done. You can really taste the quality ingredients. Service was top-notch, the menu is creative and innovative, and it’s clear they’re bringing something unique to town. Highly recommend stopping in — you won’t be disappointed! Christy & Brian

I’m so glad we found this place! The vibe is super cool, but the real stars are the staff and the food. They take food allergies incredibly seriously here—they really go out of their way to make sure you're safe, which is so rare to find. Oh, and did I mention the food was amazing? Highly recommend.

Great place! We stopped in for coffee and were really happy with our visit. The service was excellent—friendly, welcoming, and super helpful—and our drinks came out quickly! It looks like a newer spot, and they went all out with the Halloween decorations, which made it extra fun and festive. Definitely worth a stop!

I had a hot Club sandwich. The side of Russian potato salad was generous and delicious. They brew great coffee. Too bad I was driving sampling the various beers on tap would have been a great finish to the visit.
