Whether you're grabbing a morning espresso, meeting friends for brunch, or winding down with a craft cocktail, Kilroy's Cafe is your neighborhood gathering place on Howard Street.
Years in Quincy
Fresh Brewed Coffee
E Howard St
For over four decades, Kilroy's Cafe has been the heartbeat of the Howard Street community. We've watched seasons change, neighborhoods grow, and countless regulars become family.
Every cup is pulled with care by baristas who know their beans. From classic espresso to seasonal specials, we take the craft seriously — but never ourselves.
Our kitchen serves up hearty breakfasts all day, satisfying lunches, and weekend brunch that keeps people lining up. Fresh ingredients, honest flavors, no shortcuts.
When the sun sets, Kilroy's transforms. Our cocktail program features local spirits, house-made syrups, and a menu designed for unwinding with good company.
Kilroy's Cafe didn't become a neighborhood institution by accident. It happened because we show up every day — early for the morning rush, patient for the regulars, and passionate about doing the simple things well.
Our space on Howard Street has been a place for first dates and Friday night drinks, for study sessions and Sunday brunches, for people who just need a quiet corner and a great cup of coffee. That hasn't changed, and we don't plan on it changing.
We don't take our regulars for granted — and neither do they.
"This is my go-to spot every morning before work. The coffee is consistently excellent, and the staff remembers my order. It's rare to find a place that feels this welcoming after all these years."
"We celebrated our anniversary here last weekend — the cocktails were fantastic and the food was even better. It's become our favorite restaurant in Quincy. The atmosphere is warm without being stuffy."
"As a remote worker, I've spent countless hours at Kilroy's. Great Wi-Fi, excellent coffee, and the staff never rushes you. It's the perfect balance of café and community space. Highly recommend the avocado toast!"
