Pressed Cafe on Needham St is one of the only places in Newton where you can get a hearty breakfast bowl or burrito around 6 AM. One major benefit I found is that they also have extensive gluten-free options!
They are well versed and responsive to allergy concerns, as this morning I asked if a particular item had gluten in it. The cashier then took the time to check the allergen booklet to see if there was any concern. There was not. I am very thankful for that cashier because they displayed a discipline and hard work when some Pain In The Butt Customer is asking about allergy concerns. I appreciate that!
They have a variety of foods, but I recommend any of the foods they have. They also cater to people who are Paleo eaters, with a few desserts or pastries that are Paleo friendly.
Personally, one of my favorites is their cold brew coffee with light coconut milk. It is a George Howell brand rocket fuel that is flavorful and even craved on a winter morning. There chia pudding is adorned with fresh cut fruit, jam, and peanut butter, giving it a variety of flavors. Their GF sandwiches and wraps are ample.
Pricewise, you may find comparable options if you can wait until 7 or 8 AM, but Pressed Cafe is hard to beat if you're an early bird and want consistent high quality foods. If you can't make it to the Newton area, make sure to check their website. They are located around the greater...

Took my family here and nothing was disappointing. The menu is huge so the one downfall is the inability to decide what to get. And Pressed has many excellent vegetarian options as well. I ordered the Greek Vegetable Wrap with Carrots, Romaine Lettuce, Red Cabbage, Cucumbers, Fresh Tomatoes, Spicy Feta, Vegan Kefta Kebabs & Tahini while my family ordered Special Buffalo Chicken Soup Topped With Bleu Cheese Crumbles, the Crossroads Kebab with Vegan Herb Grilled Kebabs, Over Medium Egg, Cheddar Cheese, Fresh Slice Avocado, Roma Tomatoes, Chipotle Spread, Served on 7-Grain, the Avocado Toast With Mashed Avocado, Feta Cheese, Tomato, Za’atar (Mixture Of Sumac, Sesame Seed & Herbs), Served On 7-Grain Toast With A Side of Schug (“S’Khoog”: Middle Eastern Cilantro Hot Sauce), and the Red Dragon Stir-Fry Bowl with Seared Rare Yellow Fin Tuna, Red Quinoa, Carrots, Fresh Kale, Portobello Mushrooms, Broccoli, Zucchini, Summer Squash, Onions, Grilled Pineapple, Red Peppers, Green Peppers, Chives, Crushed Peanuts, Spicy Peanut Sauce & Served With A Side of House-Made Hot Sauce.
