Pavement Coffeehouse - Allston

This is a smaller location, that gets very busy on weekends. Yet, I'm always really happy and satisfied with the service and quality. Staff are so nice when I have questions or changes to make.

Devastated that the quality of pavement has gone so far down. The sandwiches have always been expensive but the quality justified the price. This sandwich was $15 and the egg is half the size it used to be, this skinny bacon was probably $3. Not the thick cut they used to have. At least update your pictures so customers know what a rip off the sandwich is.

Pavement has fell off. The surly service and comic servings of cream cheese on their bagels is a joke. I have waited 20 minutes for a toasted bagel and coffee. The amount they charge for what little they deliver is ridiculous. Whoever owns or manages this place should be ashamed.

The coffee and food here is really good, though it is a bit on the pricier side.

Great breakfast sandwiches, but expensive. They also don't have a bathroom.

coffee is amazing!!

Coffee taste was so disappointing. And sourdough egg cheese was not worth to pay that much money with coffee.

Great coffee and breakfast sandwiches, like all pavement locations, but this one doesn't have a bathroom. How can you sell coffee without a bathroom?!

Wicked slow service. Dont come here if ur in a rush. Took us 1/2 hour to get 2 bagels.

As a local who has been supporting Pavement since they first opened, I was really disappointed today. After waiting over 20 minutes for our order, several people who came in after us got their food first. When I asked about it, the cashier just said, “That’s cool,” which made it worse. We ultimately asked for a refund and left. It’s clear the team needs much better training on both order management and basic customer service at th Brighton location. Sadly, after years of being a loyal customer, I won’t be returning.

Went for a birthday treat. Small quaint place, friendly staff and must be pet friendly because I met a cutie inside.

Ordered a gluten free bagel “sunrise” breakfast sandwich. Received cold, untoasted white bread with cream cheese and egg. Last order I received a semi-frozen bagel, and when I asked them to warm it was met with looks of confusion and disgust. Staff is dismissive, food is gross at best. $14 for flabby bread? pass.

Cappuccino was mid, service was pretty quick but could have communicated more, atmosphere was weirdly sterile and cold. Overall disappointed, but worth checking out if you need a quick coffee or bite.
