Asaro Bakery & Cafe in Cambridge is new-ish (replaced an old Darwin's I think) and has solid baked goods. For coffee, they use La Colombe beans. Super friendly employees and a nice space!
Cool article on A Sanctuary Cafe on Charles Street. The wife and I spent some time with the cats a couple of weeks back and it was a great experience. Also, they have a tea mixed with cider that is simply phenomenal: https://www.boston.com/culture/book...oston-finally-got-a-cat-cafe/?p1=hp_secondary

Cafe Reynard is a new microroastery and specialty coffee spot operating out of Idle Hands Brewery in Malden Center. Just tried it today--friendly staff and a great array of pourover options!

Finally made it out to Ipswich to check out Little Wolf Coffee Roasters--easily one of the top 3 pourovers I've had in the Boston metro, though at $10 it certainly wasn't cheap! Their specialty drinks are really interesting too. Worth a trip to Ipswich just for this if you are a coffee fan! (Beautiful indoor space as well.)
This is not Boston, but I noticed you were looking for good donuts. Eighty 8 Donuts in Portland Maine, across from the new tallest building, are possibly the best I have ever had. A little bit pricey but hot and made to order, smaller sized donuts in quantities of 6. I went with a friend and we split 2 types so had 3 of each. Between that and Mount Desert Island Ice Cream (and obviously awesome architecture, walkability, Eastern prom, Excalibur at Funtown, etc) I'm certainly not lacking in excuses to go to Portland!
