Tatte Bakery & Cafe | Coolidge Corner

This review is only for their pies. I had high expectations since their apple pie is so amazing. Last year I preordered their Apple and pecan pies. Apple pie was amazing as usual. Pecan really great. This year I walked in to grab their pecan, apple, and pumpkins pie. The Apple pie was great as expected. The other two were not great to not edible. The pumpkin pie was about 1 cm thick in total. 1/2 cm of pumpkin and 1/2 cm of pie crust -thick gluey pie crust. They have this weird flour and pecans on top that didn’t add much to the taste if anything detracted and I believed this was to mask the lack of actual pie. The pecan pie was way way too sweet. I wish I had taken photos too support my point, but was too surprised by the poor quality as Tatte is in general a great bakery. Lessons learned: I will only be grabbing their apple pie next Thanksgiving. All the others I will unfortunately have to look somewhere else.

We were in Brookline and thought we'd stop in and get some work done and enjoy a sweet treat. We ordered the chocolate pound cake ($6.50 or so) and it was disgusting. It was a dense brick, not a pound cake, and the chocolate flavor was off. It was sour and very unappetizing. We ended up abandoning the cake. Don't come here for the food.

The poor cashier barely knew enough English to take my order, she seemed really stressed and management should have had her on another position. It took about 5 minutes to order a drip coffee and breakfast sandwich with her and in the end the order was still completely wrong. I didn’t send it back because I could tell she was really stressed.

Overpriced and there are way better options in the Brookline area

Great food and service. You can't beat the croissant nor any pastry.
The staff is very helpful.
Needed several times to bring a cake as a present- and they did excellent job.
Very much recommended, yet a bit too crowded and the space between the tables is tiny.

Love this location!! Not too crowded, nice and clean interior, and parking isn’t as much of a problem like other locations. Great shakshuka, and their pistachio latte is so fragrant and tasty! Love their freshly baked pastries as well!

We with my wife were coming here for the last half a year every Sunday regardless of waiting for a free table. The coffee was as good as in Europe. Two weeks ago coffee started to taste just awful (well, exactly like at other places around). So, minus 2 customers.

Loved the vibe of this place and serves top notch pastries and confectioneries. Had been to this place with my best friend and enjoyed the time here.

We ordered a black sesame latte, a simple latte, passion fruit krembo plus a chickpea and fava plate (served with Pita bread). Loved everything we ordered and I can still recollect the flavour of the black sesame latte.

Will surely recommend this place if you happen to visit Boston.

When I asked the staff why the order was 10 minutes after the delivery time, they rudely told me that it was being prepared and kept me waiting for 10 minutes. The person I thought was the manager also behaved rudely instead of apologizing and asking the problem. I think it is not appropriate for a corporate company, they should train their staff on this issue.

Pastries and food are heaven to view and mull your decision over and delicious!! We prefer the americano to their drip coffee but once we figured that out it gave us a five star experience.
