Housed in the basement of one of those big old buildings that makes this neighborhood near South Station so unique, the Channel Cafe at once surprises and charms.

The New York Times says

There are plenty of tempting daytime options, like … Channel Café, delivering a locavore fix.

The Boston Herald says

Channel Café doesn’t feel like Boston. With its painted-brick and rock walls, impossibly high ceiling, mismatched furniture, worn floorboards and eclectic artwork, it feels more like Seattle, the East Village or Harvard Square, back in the day. …

The vibe is laid-back. The fare is rustic, flavorful and fresh. …

The Boston Globe says

If I lived in Fort Point Channel, you’d probably find me at Channel Cafe several times a week. Actually, I’d probably take my laptop and move in. …

The Weekly Dig says

In all, a highly recommended dinner option, especially for a first date—gives you the opportunity to not only impress your soon-to-be significant other with your refined palate, but with your inner artiste as well.

We love the cafe for lunch…a tasty dinner at the hidden spot.

AOL CityGuide—Boston says

Just as Audubon shot birds to immortalize them in paintings, a reviewer publicizing a place such as Channel Café risks killing part of what makes it extraordinary. This Fort Point enclave is that rarest of rara avises in Boston’s dining scene: an undiscovered restaurant of great quality. … This easygoing establishment has an atmosphere that can’t be faked—one that arises from the combination of creativity, charisma, eclecticism and good taste.

This café on the ground floor of a refurbished 19th-century warehouse serves three meals daily, bringing Fort Point neighborhood residents and artists together in an inviting, unpretentiously hip space. 300 Summer Street, South Boston, 617.426.0695.

Daily Candy Boston says

The Impressionists had Café Guerbois. Hemingway had Les Deux Magots. And Gauguin pretty much had his own island. So why shouldn’t the artists of Fort Point Channel have a cushy spot to drum up inspiration (i.e. drink) at?
