“We got the muffuletta sandwich and it was SPECTACULAR! It was a new sandwich for us…the bread was perfectly paired to the style of sandwich and fresh. The meats and cheese were delicious and the olive garnish and herbs enhanced this unique taste experience. We took the sandwich to go but the restaurant was clean and relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and fast service.“

“I had the Hot honey glazed chicken sandwich. It was the best vegan sandwich I’ve ever eaten and I’ve had a lot of vegan sandwiches.“

“Went there for a corporate holiday gathering. The staff were terrific and it was such a fun, interesting chance to learn, laugh and connect with colleagues. Staff are so attentive, kind and patient. A wonderful place!“

“Had a wonderful time, especially thanks to the tour guide(s) at 4 pm. The main leader, “Sarah,” definitely made the experience worthwhile. There was a giant group of young kids that weren’t paying much attention (as young kids do-not a complaint) yet we were able to learn and enjoy the amazing museum and experiences nonetheless. They were very accommodating, humorous, and well equipped to handle large groups of people while keeping their attention. We liked the experience and would go back.“

“A fantastic gem with excellent customer service! Get The Hero coffee, it was delicious. Everything was so good and fresh!“

“After living nearby for more than a year, I finally visited Bikeeny Caffe this week. The pastries were delightful! My favorites were the Italian cheese blend pastry and the honey pecan pastry in the photo I’ve included. The employees were cheerful and kind. I plan to return at least once every week!“

“Amazing coffee and food! Not super sweet like other shops and the coffee is flavorful! Great friendly service!“

“Bacon egg and cheese was extra cheesy and delicious with their everything bagel (2 sandwiches and 2 drinks came out in less than 10 minutes). Not a lot of space for seating indoors but we went around noon and there were plenty of open tables, just a lot of people coming in and out with tables close together. Staff was friendly, will definitely come back to try the wraps!“

“Nice pastry’s and good location“

“Went here for some snacks during my visit. Not a huge selection on the baked goods but good enough variety that it didn't bother me. I went here because it was a gluten free option and I need that for my allergies. I had a red velet cupcake, and a sweet heavy cake plus a fruity pebbles rice crispy treat my husband had a cookie but he didn't care for it but I loved everything I had! He did loved my fruity pebbles treat! It looks so clean in here and the service was nice the guy at the register was fast and pleasent! I highly recommend you stop here if you need gluten free treats!

“I was in Boston for a business trip and one of my colleagues happened to stumble upon Tatte. He raved about the coffee and the pastries, so I had to try it. I ordered a coffee and the raspberry, pistachio tart.
It was amazing! The coffee was incredible. Rich, smooth, flavorful. Not too hot to drink. It’s everything you imagine a high end coffee should be.
The tart was delicious. Full of flavor, not overly flakey. Just perfect.
This will be my go to spot on my next trip to Boston.“

“We bought GH coffee in Boston a couple years ago. Best coffee ever!“

“stopped on our vacation to Boston while exploring in Salem! such a cute little shop!! our drinks were perfection!! I got a something seasonal coconut brulee? we also had a caramel latte both were delicious! amazing Boba selection too!!“

“Not much more to say that OUTSTANDING!! he food is delicious, abundant, varied, signature to them in tastes and styles, affordable, local, fresh - and served/prepared by an amazing crew!! It's a tiny place, which you would think would discourage many. But not here!! That should tell you something. Not only is there a line out the door for 'to-go' ordering, but people filing in and out who ordered ahead - not to mention those ]like myself] willing to wait - cramped - patiently awaiting a seat to open in order to dine in. Ya, to some it might seem more hassle than the hype. But I say the hassle is because the hype is true!! Anything worth having is worthy a bit of struggle to get it. JAC's is an excellent example of that! Thank you to the entire crew for all you do, your hard work and dedication to quality shines through!“

“Great location. Visited during Boston Pride. Service felt a bit sluggish at the time but I imagine that's mostly due to the crowds. Had always heard so much about the pastries and sweets and Tatte and was not let down. Tried a couple of them with a pistachio latte and now I'm hooked. Wish it was a bit more affordable but it is Boston after all, nothing about this city is cheap.“

“The staff was very pleasant and assertive..the food was great and worth every penny...i would definately come back..i already shared a post on my fb page too!“

“Very friendly and cheerful staff. Great coffee and sandwiches.“

“This was so good!
I had a great experience at this place! I enjoyed the lamb breakfast and a cappuccino. The variety of choices is impressive, and the breakfast was simply delicious. The cappuccino came with adorable cat latte art, reflecting the staff's extra care and attention to detail. The place is well-designed and well-organized. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Boston.“

“Best place ever Always feel comfortable and safe when I am here“

“Grande Burrito, X-Tudo, chicken stucks, Coxhinas“

“Delicious food!! Like wow the tots and the sandwiches are next level. Pepper jelly and homemade garlic bread made for a real good day. Busy but cool vibe as well in there. And I need to try a loaded croissant. They were busy but my only complaint is still just how long we waited for our food. Even our drinks too. It was like table service restaurant wait times. But still worth it in the end with how tasty it is“

“Great local place for breakfast, cold brew, smoothies, pupsicles, or a light lunch!“

“Delicious food!!
Variety of fresh Chinese sweets. I also got very delicious Portuguese cake. Very good location, clean and super organized, lovely prices. Personal portions and to share, you can even transport them. Ideal to take as souvenirs! They have delivery! Puff pastry almond cookies are my favorites! They have products with green tea.“

“Ola Cafe has been a favorite stop since moving into the neighborhood a few years ago- it is the perfect place for a quick coffee and snack. The staff are next to none- are always warm, welcoming and ready to give my dog lots of love and attention. My all time favorite thing there is their orange juice- it is truly the best OJ I have had- they squeeze it by hand in front of you and despite the effort it takes to prepare- they always do it with a smile.“

“The food is good but don't look at the menu online because it is not what they offer.“

“Nice cocktails and next to Mike’s Pastry“

“So sad. Today was their last day in Allston. Going to miss them...and their banana bread!“

“Tried several Tatte and this one is special. Food is always perfect and if ever someone has taken my online order, the managers always assist and get is asap. Store is super clean and service is always special. I do like the small talk. Mary, Francesca Gm, Roselyn, Hector always know my order and drinks. Totally worth the daily trip.“

“Came here a few times for breakfast and it was phenomenal. Big portions and a bang for your buck. Asian customer needs to be kinder to her granddaughter though. Granny slammed her little one's takeout on the table, got me thinking she probably failed a quiz in Elementary. She got good taste though.?“

“What can I say other than magical?! We were fortunate enough to host my son’s 11th birthday party in the back room (The kids loved the secret hidden entrance through the bookcase). Tons of great games for all ages and the food was fantastic! Literally everything we had was gourmet quality and up to my foodie 11 year-old’s standards. We will definitely be back if not just for the food!“

“Cafe 180 Serves coffee and fresh pastries with a smile. Excellent place to meet a colleague or friend. Highly Recommend!“

“Great Coffee and Amazing Pastries!

This café is one of my favorite places. The coffee is always really good, and the pastries are fresh and tasty.

I also order for my daughter’s birthday party, and everyone loved them! The best thing at birthday party is that everyone loves the food you put out and nothing left in the end!

Highly recommend!“

“How anyone could give this place a bad review makes no sense to me. You've probably already read from the other reviews that the staff is incredible, but truly -- they are. They are so kind and welcoming to every single person that comes in. Aside from that, the coffee is AMAZING! They have so many different flavors to choose from and you can customize any drink however you like (even if it's not on the menu). Also, the breakfast sandwiches... wow. Get 'The Stallion', just trust me. Prices are completely reasonable. Honestly, no other coffee place I've been to even compares. I'll be a longtime customer!“

“Fantastic gem! I love the atmosphere. Rachael and her team are so welcoming. The food is amazing and unique. Fun variations that will leave you wanting to come back again and again to sample everything on the menu. They have more coffee varieties than can fit on their menu and every one I have had is fantastic!“

“So excited I got to enjoy the Roasted Turkey Sandwich today! Love the T.V. show & cookbooks so this visit was a bucket list item.“

“What a gem for the town of Swampscott. Stopped in today, finally! Coffees, specialty drinks, breakfast sandwiches, açaí bowels, protein balls, SO HARD TO CHOOSE! So we got a little of everything, and we were NOT disappointed. Thank you Sweet Java for a great morning.“

“I reached out to Simone for a picnic setup for our gender reveal. I wanted it to be a surprise for my husband. Oh boy, we were blown away by the decor and arrangements! It was absolutely adorable, with the perfect blue and pink theme throughout. The veggie panini sandwich and flatbread were delicious too! Most importantly, Simone was such a kind, sweet, smiling soul, she truly made the evening feel magical and unforgettable. Highly recommend!“

“Large menu selection and the food was good. Gets very busy during lunchtime.
Only complaint that I have was we ordered our food and coffee, they told me they were brewing fresh coffee and would take 6 minutes.
Took much longer than that since the machine had an error and no one told us about the problem. We finished our meals and then asked what happened to our coffee and they then noticed that the coffee machine did not brew.
Small complaint, but was annoying with poor communucation with customers in a timely manner.
We will go back though.“

“Excellent service! I highly recommend Le Macaron Boston. Their pastries are not only delicious but are served in a very clean and welcoming environment. A must go to!“

“Cute place. We arrived on the later side which annoyed the waitstaff.... I promised we'd leave by closing time which was 2:00. We arrived around 1:30. Overall the food was good. A little annoying because we had to ask for more than 2 items, but not a bad place. We ll try again .“

“Strawberry, Roasted Peach & Chicken Salad $14.85: EAT THIS. Super yummy and fresh. It is the end of the season for strawberries and peaches, so I was warry, but this was fresh and light, not heavily dressed. The cheese added a nice creaminess, but I was surprised it was missing the usual tartness feta has. The chicken breast wasn't dried out. The cashews were a nice unexpected surprise that added crunch. RECOMMEND.

GF Chicken Salad Sandwich $12.50: So I had an initial bite that had like too much butter or something in it, fatty and odd. After that, the taste improved drastically, and was nicely balanced. OKAY.

Kale & Apple Juice 12oz $6.00: Refreshing! I could taste both the kale and apple, and one did not overpower the other. RECOMMEND.

Oatmeal & Walnut Cookie (GF) $3.50: EAT THIS. A love a soft cookie that has a bit of crunch on the outside for texture and this was perfect. Not too sweet, and the walnuts added nice texture. RECOMMEND.

It is a bright lovely space. While I know they are attempting to maximize space, seating feels too close. I sat at the bar facing out to look out the windows. I am a normal woman, but I had to put my bag on a stool next to me, and thing felt too close. I was lucky to be there during down time or I would have been brushing people to get to my seat. SO if you are like me and like your personal space, seek to go during off peak hours.

I didn't like where the location was to bus your plates when you are finished, I hat to walk back up to the front and pass the register. I understand why they do this, to make it easier for staff, and keep the visual space clear. I still found the placement off.

Staff were not the nicest, but I went in there to eat, not make friends, but something to keep in mind.

Verdict: GOOD. TRY IT OUT.“

“We had a large group for breakfast and the staff were fantastic. Carl took care of us very well and they were very obliging and helpful with the set up and checks. The front of house staff were fantastic and helped with all the arrangements. We had the buffet and the spread was delicious. Great place for breakfast!“
