I like everything about this Pavement except the seating here is often full, which is to be expected in Boston, but this place has a lot of space and I feel could have more efficient seating.

AMAZING bagels and sandwiches! My favorite is the rosemary salt bagel. You can tell it’s homemade and it’s light yet so good. The coffee can be a hit or miss sometimes but when it’s done right, it’s good too! I would recommend the death cream cold brew and vanilla iced latte. Those are always great!Dietary restrictions: Vegan and vegetarian optionsParking: Parking out front is always open and easy. Metered parking

I got the BLT on a rosemary salt bagel with cream cheese instead of aioli. Pretty yummy. The bacon was perfect and the tomatoes were fresh. I’ve never had Boston bagels before and it was okay, very fluffy but still a hard exterior. The rosemary wasn’t overpowering and neither was the salt. I also got a London fog, very comforting.

Such good breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Definitely order ahead because it can get busy at times. Great for a hungover munch!

The food was great, but it took one whole hour to get a bagel. There was also a rat running around on the floor, which ruined the atmosphere entirely.

It's essentially just a very nice and small coffee house. Prices aren't bad and the food is good. I'm not really a coffee person so I've mostly tried their pastries and teas, which are consistently good. The service is quick too. It's nothing too special, but a nice place to stop on a morning commute for a small breakfast.

The sign stated that the restaurant Closes at 6. They told us at 5:18 that they were unable to serve us.

Okay food and drinks, and nice ambiance. Pricing is outrageous, especially considering how close to a university it is. $9 for egg and cheese on a bagel is a no for me.

One of the best bagels I've ever had! The rosemary salt bagel was amazing and the vegan options are fantastic. I got that bagel with the veggie tofu spread and the vegetables in it tasted so fresh. The iced coffee here is also great and they have non dairy milk options! Especially for a place in the city, I was impressed by the price of my bagel.

Decent coffee, but limited options. Super cute interior. Staff was decidedly unfriendly.

Nice atmosphere with lots of comfortable seating. Definitely a student hangout. It was pretty hot inside on a summer day though. Drip coffee was very good.
