    Egg salad Bagel (top/left) Salmon Lox Bagel (bottom/right)

    Good size bakery with a decent amount of seating for how packed it was on a Sunday afternoon. Babkas are the go to pastry in Boston, and they do them right! They offered plenty of samples for those in line. I got a pre made lox sandwich and a pumpkin babka. The sandwich was delicious with soft bread! The babka was sweet without being over the top! Definitely a must try!!

    I arrived five minutes after they opened. Ordered a tasty chocolate Babka fresh out of the oven. Their Babka is $8 a slice yet two people could split one slice. Lots of different flavors to choose from.

    Broissant

    The babkas were amazing. Both people who had the chocolate hazelnut babkas said they were incredible. My mom said it's one of the best she's ever had and she's had a lot. It was even good the next day. The croissant was huge and so good soft and tasty. It was great the next day as well. The broissant was very sweet and delicious. The buerkas we had were great as well. The staff were super friendly. Shout out Ricardo the baker who got me a fresh babka out of the oven since I was waiting 20 mins. Everything is made fresh. The place was clean. Would come here again next time I'm in Boston.

    Almond Babka

    When you step in, it smells so good inside! I tried their chocolate banana babka, almond babka, and their classic chocolate one! I would say the chocolate one was my favorite! None of them were too overly decadent nor sweet. They were perfect. Staff was also serving out free samples and they had a good amount of seating area!

    We were visiting from out of town and met up with family here. Special shout out to Kenedy who was lovely and was tremendously helpful and patient with everyone! The service here was great and the baked goods were top tier. We had a chocolate pastry babka and a bagel with cream cheese. Both were tremendously delicious. Their coffee was just okay. There are a lot of tables inside and a few outside. We walked there so cannot comment on the parking. Great for breakfast on the go!

    Pastry offerings

    They were right, the Babka is the best in town. The pistachio is awesome especially with a cup of cappuccino. They offer other flavors too. Will definitely come back and try their many offerings when I'm back in town. The best partI managed to get the big loaf of babka and ask them to cut it up into three so I can take it as carry on going back to California. Service staff are awesome for they take care of their customers well.

    Bakey makes the most amazing chocolate babka! I stopped by this location right before I left Boston so I could bring a few loaves home to share. This location is large and clean and I like walking in to the smells of all the beautiful freshly baked treats. Staff is friendly and efficient. I got a few loaves and a few other treats to go. Highly recommend a stop at Bakey!!

    ChocoBanana Pecan Babka
    Rebecca C.

    The desserts were very good. Soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The raspberry was good but the banana chocolate pecan was amazing. Highly recommend. There didn't seem to be many options when I went but what they have is good.

    Cinnamon deliciousness

    We are back again and still loving it. Half of Boston was here this morning, but the service was still fast. Located right by Boston Common, you can't beat it. The pastry selection is exceptional. This is always on our list when we come for a visit.

    So many options for Babka, which is a sweet braided bread originated in the Jewish communities of Europe. Can't resist the ooey, gooey delicious baked goods. Smells so good once you walk in. They warm it up before they serve it and the chocolate one is so delicious. The Baker is, James Beard Award-nominee, Uri Scheft. There's lots of people working and chatting at the common tables.

    Raspberry Babka and Chocolate Babka
    Denise V.

    Stopped by to escape the chilly wind, and wow--this place is heaven for your nose and sweet tooth. And it smells divine in here! They're famous for their babkas, and it's easy to see why. When we visited, they had chocolate, raspberry, blueberry, and almond options: each slice is $6.50 ($6.90 for chocolate), or you can get a full loaf for $19.50. Other items on the menu included spinach & cheese burekas, goat cheese croissants, muesli rolls, and challah. We tried the chocolate and raspberry babkas. The chocolate babka is supreme: gooey, rich, and made with dark, high-quality chocolate that leans more bitter than sweet. Loved it. The raspberry babka wasn't my fave--dryer and a bit less indulgent. The tart raspberry flavor is nice, but I didn't like the sweet raspberry cream on top. But the babka base itself is fantastic: light, airy, buttery, and slightly sweet like brioche. They also serve Seattle's Caffè Umbria coffee, which pairs well with the pastries. I recommend getting a hot drink to enjoy with your pastry. We opted out since we already had coffee from another place. There's so many tables inside, water, and public bathrooms. You can watch them make the baked goods (bagels were in the works) and grab your coffee from the coffee bar or cross the street to enjoy in the Common.

    Pumpkin Babka
    Melissa L.

    Quick service, clean environment, friendly staff. I ordered a pumpkin Babka. It was baked fresh, warm, cinnamon, topped with maybe a caramel swirl and toasted pumpkin seeds. It was amazing and would order again! Yummy!

    Came to Bakey to try the Babka. What a delectable treat it was. We had the chocolate, banana, pecannnn babka. Highly recommend! It had so many flavors all harmoniously operating within the confines of the bread, so delicious! We washed it down with a hot lavender latte. The latte was delicious as well and had a heart shape to boot. Service was quick and well executed. The ambiance of the place is warm and inviting with the smell of fresh baked goods present. Highly recommend if you are in the commons walking around.

    Delicious baked goods. Chocolate babka (not pictured) is the best there is.

    I came to tatte for the black sesame latte but was seduced by the orange blossom latte and had to…read moregive it a shot. I've been drooling over the passion fruit krembo and the pear tart so I had to give them a try as well. Pear tart- absolutely perfect, so mellow and sweet and I loved the poached pear in the middle! Passionfruit krembo- honestly stronger on the coconut and meringue flavor than on the passion fruit? Tastes almost like a lemon meringue tart to me. Orange blossom latte- frankly didn't get any flavor of orange blossom in the latte, until it melted totally I could taste it a little in the coffee. The vanilla was also really light. It's a pretty unadulterated coffee (as is typical for a cold brew) and I kinda like my coffee sweet and creamy, so I was not too impressed on a first taste. But once it melted I liked it a lot more. Probably will stick with black sesame next time. Note- they serve their pastries glued with sugar (?) on a cardboard round. Im not too sure how to eat it like this so I ended up prying them off the round.

    Always love Tatte! I mean, what's not to love they have incredible coffee, tease, bakery items, and…read moreso many great dishes. Walking into a Tatte is like warm hug, it's a positive, welcoming, and bright environment to be in. All of the cafes are so aesthetically pleasing and get a lot of natural light. This location does have some indoor seating, but is a bit more limited than some of the other locations. They do have a lot of outdoor seating though. It's also a great area to walk around if you get your coffee and or pastry to go. It of course gets busy at peak times on weekends and morning during the week. Brunch is big at Tatte, and rightfully so. I don't think it's the best place to try to work, but you can bring a computer in do some work or study, but it can also get loud when there's lots of conversations being held. I've had great interactions with the staff at this location and even when it's busy, I haven't had to wait too long to get my order. I've been loving the pumpkin spice tahini latte this fall. Looking forward to my next stop in!
