Gulu-Gulu Café

Top choice in Massachusetts


Gulu-gulu means 'gulp, gulp' in French, and this place is named after a now-defunct cafe in Prague. That's an indication of how eclectic it is, featuring (in no particular order) delicious coffee, art-adorned walls, live music, exotic liqueurs and board games.
