As dairy and I have an intensely toxic relationship I choose pistachio milk here, they also have oat milk and almond milk for the dairy challenged...the pistachio really adds a nice creaminess and nutty flavor that really compliments the Kicco 100 blend...which I recommend for miei concittadini italiani! Finding truelly good coffee that isn't all sugar or anemic in flavor can be difficult, not here. Kicco has some fun coffee specialties, like Nutella, and other fun things, matcha and all her fun flavors. There are great pastries and panini as well! Kicco is a bit hidden, all the way in the back of TD Garden at Nashua Street...definitely a place for the "If you know you know" crowd!

On the particular day we visited, they were understaffed and were only offering bar service which was fine with us. We got a few of their beers which were all excellent. The Belgian Waffles truly had an end taste of maple syrup. The lemon shandy is very dry and slightly sour. We got the arancini which were SO good. We also got the truffle fries which were great. We got the Shifty, Forager, and blazin bird pizzas. All of them were really good in their own ways. The Blazin Bird was a popular one at the table.

Brewery #409…read more Nightshift brewing is a cool place along the wharf just across the street from The Garden to get a few beers and a bite to eat. I ordered my usual flight, but they were out of stickers :( They had some unique beers amongst them one called Belgian Waffles which is a blonde ale with maple syrup and cinnamon. This was dessert or breakfast, depending on your perspective, in a glass. I also got a hazy IPA, a peanut butter stout, and a hefe. All were really good. For lunch I got some honey jerk wings. These were cooked to perfection. Crisp skin and juicy meat. The problem was the flavor. They had the honey but no jerk. There was no spice at all. They were still good, but they could have been great. Anyway, give me stickers and spice and I will give you that 5th star.

I enjoy my traditional breakfast of caffe latte and either a biscotti or croissant (cornetto for my fellow Italiani) . They also have Australian savory pies, and other breakfast treats.

I love thinking cup, as does anyone in the neighborhood…read more The cafe itself has a very rustic vibe to it, and I love that the table tops have that newspapers under the glass. It makes it fun if you're sitting down. I've gotten food here before but I wouldn't say that their food is my favorite (although it is really good, I just like some other spots a bit more for breakfast). Their coffee is outstanding though. I myself rarely have just cold brew. I like a foam, I love a dessert drink. But their honey cinnamon cold brew....out of this world. It is my go to every time. I've tried their lattes and they are fine, but you're missing out if you don't try their cold brew. Their hot chocolate in the winter with the macadamia milk is also exceptional if you aren't a coffee person. The service is always pretty quick, while there might be a line it does move fast and they get drink orders out quickly. The staff is also always really nice and helpful. The price is on par with the neighborhood. Love thinking cup and have been back + will continue to go back many more times!

We came across Thinking Cup one morning and decided to have breakfast here. It's a cute rustic place where you can sit inside to eat or grab to go. I love the display of the bakery goods and the wonderful smell of coffee. The place is pretty clean. We decided to try their waffles. It came with fresh diced strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream. Overall delicious with a touch of powdered sugar. We also purchased the scones to go and they were also delicious!

I spent $21 on their original dog, half cheese & half sausage with ketchup; as well as a large bubble tea. The sausage was my least favorite but with the cheese, it was pretty good. The bubble tea lacked a lot. There wasn't a very good selection. I also asked for no boba pearls, and of course, it had boba pearls. Hub Hall is packed but the wait time was atrocious. It took over 20 minutes to receive my two items. Honestly, I think Currentea is a cute little place not suitable for its location. It seems too small for many staff members and they're very overworked. I appreciate the hustle of the staff but it gets to a point it's unacceptable.

One of the many food and drink options located in Hub Hall near the TD Garden. Which before the…read moreconcert we attended you could tell everyone had the same idea to pop in and grab a bite or a drink. We had already eaten but wanted to grab a drink and couldn't pass up trying a bubble tea spot. So as you'd expect this review is solely for just drinks. Service wise we ordered from the little kiosk which worked well and allowed for plenty of customizing of your drink. That was a positive but also could be a quick way to make your price sky high with most additions being an extra dollar. They give you an order number that will be called when your order is ready. As we were waiting a worker did ask if we were waiting and for our order number and then they seemed to put a rush on making it and they apologized for the wait. Which honestly I did not think we had a long wait but appreciated the staff still. Overall the space for waiting is limited but won't hold that in a negative light since it's a food hall. I grabbed a Mango Fruit Tea with mango popping boba added while my wife got their toasted brown sugar milk tea. Both were pretty good but neither blew us away. My wife did not like the syrup in her brown sugar milk tea, had an odd flavor to it. Maybe we should have picked different drinks that would have impressed more. I would return to give some of their food a try in the future and more drinks though. Friendly staff with decent drinks and located in a very convenient location if you are visiting TD Garden.

Therefore, there were groups clamoring for the few tables that were inside. However, service was very friendly and the food options were delicious. Pastries and breakfast sandwiches are standouts and I particularly liked the avocado toast - a large portion avocado on very good bread with a variety of accompaniments. Pricing was reasonable and it's helpful to be able to order at the kiosk but as first timers it made it slightly confusing. We sat upstairs and it helped make things more relaxing as it was less crowded and plenty of room. I think this location is serving the hospital so I suspect it's always very busy.
