As a gourmet burger joint, I'd rate this as straight-in-the-middle mediocre. You can come here and get a reliable and good-tasting meal, but it won't be memorable. You might stop by again because it's a different choice in the area, but it won't rank up too high amongst other burger joints. I like the different variety of flavors, as well as their options for things non-burger. There was a nice balance of different flavors and ingredients, so there's something to please most palates. We ordered a Maui and a Cali BST, with a large order of parmesan truffle fries. They definitely used good quality ingredients. The burger tasted good, but the BST was meh (the ingredient combination wan't quite right). There was a serious lack of bacon in the BST - only two pieces folded, very lame! What really brought down the meal was the bread. Too thick and way too dense, and there wasn't enough other ingredients, so the burger and sandwich were underwhelming as a whole, particularly with the BST. Need I say lack of bacon again? Their parmesan truffle fries weren't bad. We ordered a large size and for the price of it, it was worth it just for the quantity. We did not get any special ketchup (as other reviewers mentioned). The truffle taste was very, very faint and not dispersed on all of the fries. The shaved parmesan was good, but I think we could've ordered the other fries and have the same experience. Overall, I won't go out of my way to eat here, but if a friend or relative wanted to check it out and needed company, I won't say no. read more

Came in with high expectations after reading some good things online, but it was quite disappointing. Burger was overcooked and lacked flavor. Brioche bun was a little too crumbly and dry. French fries were clearly cooked in oil that needed to be changed. Not great considering two burgers, a side of fries, and a smoothie were $40. The smoothie was pretty good, but I can't imagine coming back here again. read more

FINALLY a place that knows how to make sweet potato fries and finally a place that knows how to pack food to go. Nothing worse than ordering fries from a place that puts it in a container and closes it up tight! That just traps the steam and makes the fries soggy. OH! And their burgers are yummy too!! read more

I really want to be able to give Bred 5 stars but the truth is sometimes it's a 5 and sometimes it's a 2-3. I always order my burger cooked medium. When they cook it that way- heaven! Great menu, locally owned small business, quality ingredients. However, when I get home and end and realize I have a tasteless, over cooked burger (at least well done), it makes me wish I never stopped. Some days I'm willing to risk it, other days I go elsewhere. I'm not sure if the difference is who's on the grill? Haven't done the recon. Anyways, I really like Bred and want them to figure out how to cook their burgers to order consistently so I can give them all the love. read more

I got a classic Bred burger. Very very good. The French fries are delicious as well. No fountain drinks but there are bottled sodas. have a couple beers on tap. Would definitely recommend and will return. Staff; not so friendly. read more

Had lunch there today with a few other folks and I was really excited by the offerings and the execution. The jerk chicken BLT I had was one of the best sandwiches I've had in Boston. I'd never heard of this place before today but it's worth the trip out there. No chips with the sando, minor letdown. read more

Great burgers and you must Try the salmon burger it's a winner healthy choice !!signin out big wizz!!!

Really good love the maui burger. I get it well done. The green juice is also good. A tad bit pricey but it's a small business with a local owner so I support. read more

Bred - Maui burger minus ham, sweet potato fries and very mean green - Sandwiches Near Me - Dorchester, Massachusetts

Stopped in for a burger and chicken sandwich. Was disappointed when the burger which was ordered medium was well done. The jerk chicken had good flavor though the same story, very, very dry due to be cooked too long. The over cooking can happen anytime, however, some of the veggies topping on the chicken sandwich were not copacetic. They onions had spots of rot all over them. Yikes: read more

Had a BYO cheeseburger with crispy onions & pickles on brioche & a jerk chicken with Cajun fries. All were outstanding. The fries especially were super crispy and well seasoned. Service during Monday lunch was quick and friendly. Definitely will go back. read more

Called an order fir takeout to Bred last night. It was our first time getting food from there. My one word review would be 'great'. Highly recommend this place. Food was fantastic, service was great even though the place was hopping. From now on, this will bd our go to burger spot. read more

This is my absolute favorite burger place in Boston. The staff is always friendly, keeping the atmosphere fun, and the owner is a great guy. Every single order I've had had been 10/10! The Parmesan truffle fries are out of this world. If you're looking for gourmet American food- this is your spot! Thank me later! read more

Every order I've gotten has not disappointed! Classic BRED burger, regular fries, or Cajun fries. Delicious!

One of my favorite burger places around! Also, a wonderful place to work. Tambo treats his employees like family, & it will always be one of my favorite jobs ever. Food is immaculate and delicious! read more

I was so disappointed my fries were cold af! The veggie burgers taste like a sloppy joe. Like not even a consistent patty but like broken up pieces of wtf am i eating!!? I will never order from them again. An the food arrived late . Terrible read more

Best freshest, delicious burger I've had. Just had the Maui burger. Mmmm mmmm good. The hand cut fries didn't need any ketchup. Seasoned very well. Get the Mean Green smoothie if can. read more

I really like the food from this place but today I order through grab hub and got my food late and cold and on top of that I found I long piece of hair...I had to literally pull it out of my mouth while I was eating and it was really disgusting and ruin my entire day.So I give you two stars because I may come back to this place or order anything in the future... read more

Amazing flavor! I had the Jerk Chicken with a side of Sweet Potato Fries. For these prices it's really hard to find such a gourmet sandwich that'll leave me satisfied. The service was also a major plus. The owner and staff are really friendly and I can't wait to go back again. read more

I'll begin by saying the burgers are pretty good, but after ordering both for pick up and delivery multiple times I just can't do it anymore. Every single time something has been wrong or missing. Tonight we ordered delivery and one burger came completely wrong and missing items we had paid for, and a whole order of fries was missing. I called and they said my only option was to get a refund or come pick up the replacement. Personally I think they should pay to have it delivered seeing as I had already done that. Another time we got a bun with no burger in it. I cannot remember a single time where the order has been correct. It is too bad because the food is actually good but I can't take the lack of basic customer service (like checking to be sure what somebody ordered is actually in the bag). I am sympathetic to a one time mistake, but this happens consistently. That can only speak to the way this restaurant is run. I prefer to support local businesses in my neighborhood but this place isn't worth the frustration for us anymore. read more

One of my go to for lunch & dinner! Natural and healthy! stumbled on this place when I was pretty much sick of the stuck in normally have access to. my first visit was pleasant and I brought food for my coworkers..... they loved it.... now llyod of them come here! read more

Bred - #truth - Sandwiches Near Me - Dorchester, Massachusetts

Yummy. Best burgers in the Mattapan/Milton/Dorchester area. a bit pricey but remember these burgers are melt in your mouth delicious. I recommend ordering in store so you can get it as fresh as it can be! read more

Exceptional food. Amazing choice of burgers. Fries were the best. Service was exceptional. Very clean. Came recommended by the Phantom Gourmet. Great suggestion. Can't wait to go back up that way. read more

Bred catered my sisters baby shower this weekend and did a phenomenal job. The owner was able to work with the budget I gave him which had amazing results. The owner delivered the food on time as promised and the food was appropriately hot and appetizing! All of the guests raved about the food and most inquired as to where we got the food from. The other good thing about Bred is they can work within a 48 hour time frame which was great due to the fact that the original caterer for the event backed out at the 11th hour. I strongly recommend if you are having an event definitely consider using Bred! read more

The Bred salmon was delicious. Ordered online and it was ready within 15 mins thru their curb side pick up, due to covid.

Food is good but I wish portions could be more consistent. Marley sandwich is bomb but skimp on jerk chicken

The Maui burger and truffle fries were incredible! This place is a must to go to! The fries were still crispy later in the day as leftovers- which is unheard of!!! They have a huge selection of unique burgers, so they have something for everyone :) read more

This place is on fire! We ordered for the first time, what a great burger! This is the second best burger I ever had. French fries is highly recommended when you order a burger! read more

Burger was good, nothing spectacular. I got the Bison burger with bacon. Slow service...I asked for no onions..Got a ton. Fries came out a lot later than the burgers. Owner or manager was sitting down eating a burger while my fries were sitting on the side. I had to go up and ask for the fries. No napkins inside the napkin holder except for one table. I also had to point out to the cashier that he only gave me $2.00 back in change when he should have given me $12.00. Fries were soggy...Was quite surprised. I was under the impression they would be fried.... ...For $12.00 and change I probably wouldn't come here again. Today is Tuesday, April 21, 2015. Sincerely, Mr. Crabs read more

Oh my goodness. Go here. Now. I've had the veggie burger many times and adore it. Everything is in the right proportions and it doesn't pretend to be a "burger." I've also had the Maui, which was freaking amazing. My husband usually gets the regular. read more

Burger was tasty, but the fries we got were so salty we couldn't even eat them and had to throw them out. May as well have just lit a 5 dollar bill on fire instead. All we had was a pile of fry crumbs, like they came from the bottom of the fry pile. read more

My boyfriend and I order here through Uber eats and we love their food! My favorite is their salmon burger that has a nice slaw with it. My boyfriend typically orders their burger. It is good, but since it doesn't come with ketchup, it would be a little dry. Fries are pretty good as well read more

The sandwich I ate was IMMACULATE ,the bread it self was nicely warmed and the bacon had such a good crunch! Also the customer service was great! so nice and made sure my order was correct shout out to Abshir! I'll definitely come again! read more

If you haven't been here yet, you are really missing out. Fantastic burgers and fries. The Maui is my favorite, but you can't really go wrong here. I always call ahead and pickup and they are wicked fast and friendly. I wish there was more space to sit down but I'm fine with take out. Try it for sure :) read more

My wife and I came in to their soft opening today and the place was clean and pleasant. I ordered the parisian which was cooked to my specifications perfectly and had full of flavor. My wife had their handmade veggie burger and it was the best veggie burger she ever had. I would definitely recommend checking this place out. read more

I am conflicted about reviewing this place because it's so good that I almost don't want others to know about it because once you come here you won't want to go anywhere else for a burger and then it will be so busy! I can't say how much we love this place! The burgers are phenomenal, great selection of drinks and the staff are all friendly and accommodating. They also have games to play at the tables while you wait. Highly recommend the Parisian Burger and truffle fries. read more

FIRST IMPRESSION: I walked into Bred Gourmet expecting more than two tables and a few stools against the wall -- needless to say this is not a sit down burger joint and you're probably better off ordering to-go than finding a place to sit (luckily, though, my boyfriend and I got an empty table, which we had to clean off ourselves - wish we had at least a clean towel to disinfect the table as two other people had just finished eating). CUSTOMER SERVICE: After a few minutes of waiting while the gentleman at the register took phone orders (I think he is the owner), we were finally acknowledged and placed our order. He was very kind and apologized for the wait - however none of the other employees in the kitchen (which is wide open for view) seemed to notice us standing there. There was a young woman on her phone in the back. She might have been on her break or just doesn't work the kitchen, but in my experience doing any type of customer service, even if "it's not your job" you acknowledge the customers and at least say, "someone will be right with you." That was a turn off. CLEANLINESS/PRESENTATION: By no means was I expecting a fancy shmancy place, given it's burgers and fries, but when a place has "gourmet" in its name, the expectations are a little bit higher than normal. I was disappointed that the food prep area behind the register was in disarray. It is an open kitchen and you can see practically everything they're doing. I'm the type of person who really takes into consideration the cleanliness of a place, specifically if I'm eating. I understand that they just opened and are probably just getting things together, but the mess turned me off. FOOD: Overall, the food was good. I can't say it was the best burger I've ever had, but it was good. The brioche bun was buttery and the garlic aioli was tasty. I hope Bred continues to see success so that the owners can invest more in how the place looks and, perhaps, in expanding their menu just a bit because I felt limited to the classic Bred, and was hoping for something a little different. PRICE: The total was about $31 give or take for two Bred Classics, sweet potato fries and an order or truffle fries, as well as two 20oz drinks. A little on the pricy side, but understood/expected given the grass fed beef and all natural ingredients. read more

Really good. Great burgers, very clean atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. Also the jerk chicken wings are fantastic. Definitely one of my favorite burger joints. Also the portion sizes are just right. You leave this place feeling good. read more

This is a pretty cool place. It would be a lot cooler if there was more seating and real seating inside. Also the front desk help tends to be a bit distant at times and I don't always feel like it's a real welcoming and customer oriented experience. One hell of a fine burger and fries. Very inventive menu as well. read more

We were so excited that Bred finally opened. It was so sad to see Mrs. Jones go but knowing that a burger joint was coming softened that blow. Tonight we had the bison burger (the Parisian) and the Olympus burger and a healthy amount of yummy Parmesan truffle fries. Everything was cooked really well and they were very busy. Yay! Good luck neighbors .. I'm looking forward to lunch! read more

I waited over an hour for two burgers when the cashier said it would be a 20-25 minute wait. No one is managing the store especially on a busy Saturday night, so even if you order ahead on Grubhub, you're still probably going to wait. By the time we did get our food it was cold because no one was checking the counter. Employees are constantly going to the back of the kitchen to text, and the only person who was actually working was the cook. Sucks because the food is pretty good, but definitely not worth the wait/cold food. read more
