The gruyere and pesto scone was out of this world good, maybe the best scone I’ve ever had, it wasn’t dry at all. Very tasty! I loved their chocolate chip cookies too!

Awfully slow, the employees don’t know how to handle any amount of rush. Extremely disappointed, because it’s a cute business with unique offerings.

Sood Eh

The bread here is significantly overpriced for the quality. Paying $7.50 for a barbari bread that isn’t exceptional feels unreasonable. The long lines, crowded space with no indoor seating, fancy lattes, and Americanized Middle Eastern offerings generate hype and make the menu accessible to a wide audience, but the bread itself doesn’t measure up.

There are other bakeries that offer tastier breads at far better value. Gyumri Lavash, Clear Flour and Hungry Ghost all make breads with superior flavor and texture that are worth paying a premium for.

I wanted to love this place because of the team running it, but it feels more reliant on marketing and hype than on true quality.

Coffee great and their baked foods are fresh and delicious.

Ordered Saffron Pistachio croissant, totally loved it

First time here and it was awesome.

Came in on a Friday at 10am, hoping to get some work done and to get a quick bite.

Staff was super helpful and kind, and we ate was delicious:

Cold brew and Masala Chai Latte - Delicious and served right away.

Pistachio Croissant with Saffron Mascarpone - packed with flavor but light. The saffron complimented the pistachio very well without overpowering it. Ended up taking home two of the day olds they had on display.

Mushroom + Ricotta Pizza - incredible. I’m a sucker for a Sicilian slice and this one is probably one of the best I’ve had in the city. Not too greasy either.

Egg Bun - This was my boyfriend’s order but I took a couple of bites and it was also incredibly tasty. They mentioned it would take 10 mins but it only took them 5. Persian pickles were a great touch. Love that it had avocado in there too!

Akbar Mashti Cheesecake - Similar flavor profiles as the croissant and just as well balanced in flavor. I preferred the croissant though because I thought its flaky texture was better suited for it. Otherwise, still a really good cheesecake.

Had my reservations to bring out my laptop at such a busy street and across a construction site but it was actually quite conducive for remote work. Noticed a ton of customers taking their calls here and some even bringing out their laptops too. Outdoor seating is quite limited but turnover is so fast that you can snag a seat so as long as you’re not a huge group. Shared a table with a regular customer and she told me they even bring our igloos during the winter.

Overall, would go again. It did get a little crazy when it got closer to lunch (overheard staff apologizing to customers about things running out and replacing their orders) but I’m not surprised. There’s a reason why it’s a neighborhood favorite and I think it’s becoming one of mine too.

This place is fantastic. As a former baker and having worked in the restaurant world for over a decade in my humble opinion it’s the best Bakery in Cambridge. The coffee is always fantastic, the bread and pastries never miss, and the employees are always friendly.
