Cute French bakery, plenty of seating. The croissant and pain chocolat were disappointing, not flaky enough and the dough was too sweetish. Tasted good, just not really like croissant. Coffees were on point.

The bakery goods are authentic but seem over-priced. A small (French sized) pastry easily goes for $5.50 plus tax and tip. (In Europe it would not cost more than 2-3 euro total.) What’s worse, the staff isn’t very helpful (don’t know what some things are or what they contain and don’t bother to find out for you). On the front end, the place needs more care/a little love

Waited 30 minutes for food after placing our order. Went up and asked at the cashier if it was on it's way, was told it was coming they were just busy. Waited another 10 minutes, checked in again but this time brought the receipt, and was told our order was never sent to the kitchen. Finally after 45 minutes we received our soup and two tartines. Admittedly the food quality was good

Really loved the number of vegetarian options and how good the quality is. It's a bit pricey but the quality, ambience and service well worth it!!

I want to like this place so badly because of the location but everything I've had is a disappointment. The croissant is fine though for for a place marketing itself as a boulangerie I do expect better. The morning bun was raw and the sourdough is poorly baked. It is unfortunate that boston so lacks good bakeries that this one is considered "great."

Delicious bread and yummy pastries (and not super sweet)! Have also had great sandwiches and coffee. Perfect addition to the neighborhood.

I’d give 0 stars if I could. I ordered the goat cheese tartine for lunch and was told it would be very substantial in size. What i got instead was a 5 in, thin, overtoasted (not even warm, it was clearly pretoasted) slice of bread with two cubes of herbed goat cheese on top for me to spread out. When I inquired whether, they took it away with apologies, but brought me a new one that looked exactly the same. It was super rude, and the meal was barely edible because the bread was so hard. Won’t go back, even though I love french bread.

Great place to sit and study or do work for a while! The pastries are varied and delicious, and the coffee is good too. The chocolate almond croissant is especially great!

The staff was friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience delightful. Their pastries are very good, I highly recommend stopping by for their treats.
It all looks really good but the overall flavor was not as great as the appearance. Croissants looked flaky and delightful but was a letdown overall. Coffee was mid tier as well. Seating and wifi available and some cold foods beyond pastries.
