From the Dover area, take Dedham  Street to Chestnut Street and head North toward Needham Center .  Go through the traffic lights at the intersection of Great Plain Avenue (Route 135) and take your first left at Lewandos Cleaners into the municipal parking lot and drive to the opposite end to reach The Center Cafe.  If you take Centre Street in Dover to Central Avenue in Needham, turn right (going East) onto Route 135 (Great Plain Avenue) and follow the directions above from Wellesley.
