I stopped into Cobblestones on a trip to Boston, and I thought it was cute, with the potential to be even better. The coffee selection was a little disappointing, with no seasonal options or flavor options beyond syrups. But, overall, the coffee was flavorful. Service was great. The person behind the counter was very personable and made great recommendations. I got my breakfast sandwich relatively quickly, and it was good, but I noticed that it was served on a pretty badly chipped plate. This could be hazardous, so I would like to see an improvement there in the future. The food and service were overall good at Cobblestones. I think with some redecorating and slight rebranding, it could become a Beacon Hill staple. The interior doesn't currently match the vibe of Beacon Hill, but I think this could be a pretty easy change to make. I would also like to see an improvement on the coffee menu. They could give Tatte a run for their money if a seasonal menu were available! read more

Although I love the breakfast sandwiches and açaí bowls here, I was disappointed to find that their grab-and-go options are overpriced and not worth it. It was $4 for a tiny container of berries and $8 for a yogurt parfait with barely any toppings. Although it's in a convenient location near the public garden, I will head to the Trader Joe's or Whole Foods nearby for my grab-and-go items instead. read more

Tried Cobblestones through a catering option at work and was pleasantly surprised. I got the pear and Gouda sandwich and added turkey--great flavor combo, and even with the added meat, the price was still lower than what I typically pay at similar spots in the area. They also included side options like small containers of fresh fruit, which I really appreciated. Everything tasted fresh, the portions were just right, and I'd definitely order from here again. Solid option for lunch, especially if you're looking for something a little different than the usual. read more

Great food in a quaint café right on the corner. It obviously is a community favorite. The breakfast was incredible and the pastries were wonderful. The coffee was really good too. If I lived here, I would frequent this place multiple times a week. The staff are very friendly as well. read more

Parking is hard to find, we were walking by around the area so easily accessible. No restroom or hand sanitizer. Place feels small, they do have outdoor seating but it's closed if it had rained. I thought it was pricey for a simple meal. Sandwhich was $16 and drink was $9. Don't get me wrong the meatball sub and drink was delicious! I got full with half(easily shareable). My sister liked the colonial sub but didn't like the Arnold Palmer. read more

Really good food. Cobb salad, sandwiches, and more. We visited on a very busy day and the staff was so friendly and patient.

Found Cobblestones while searching for a coffee shop close to The Public Gardens. Absolutely thrilled that I did. It was my first visit and I was treated as if I were a member of the family. I realize how cliche that sounds but I truly was. I was waited on by Jennifer, who I later learned was the owner. Although it was a very busy Sunday morning, she took her time with me. I felt special because there was nothing I asked her about that she did not accommodate. The pear and gouda sandwich, that everyone comments about here is truly great. I drink iced tea every day and Cobblestone's was fantastic. There was a great assortment of take home entrees that looked truly phenomenal - looked as though they were entire large, well-thought-out meals. There were prepared sandwiches or you could order one made. There was soup and salad and so much goodness. I never felt rushed while I sat with my friend. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxing and comfortable. It wasn't one of these smaller places where the noise level drives you crazy. It's on a really lovely corner and you can look out at the architecture and the Common and the Public Gardens. I highly recommend that you check Cobblestones out. read more

If I could rate this place zero stars, I would. I ordered the Gouda and fig grilled cheese with no arugula, the tomato soup, and the strawberry lemonade. My grilled cheese came with arugula, the lemonade was $8.50, and the soup was cold when it arrived. I am not one to complain to employees very often but what they gave me was wrong, overpriced, and low quality. I cannot stress this enough- if you are looking for a delicious, hot, high quality meal, do NOT eat here. If you are looking for an expensive and cold plate of ass, this is where you should dine. read more

Brief Summary: - Coffee is not sour - Indoor and outdoor seating available The day was hot and after walking for some time we needed a place to rest -- for more walking. After making some good walks around Beacon Hill, this cafe at a corner of one of the streets lured us in. There were some tables outside, but there were more inside, including a bar stool like area. We had no appetite except for cold drinks and desserts, so we ordered iced coffee and ice cream. The coffee wasn't sour but without any cream or sugar additions, it was a condensed coffee. However, we also ordered this with ice cream, so its sweetness balanced it out. We sat near the bear tables that lined up against the windows, so I enjoyed the relaxation of sipping iced coffee and observing people walking past. read more

After the 10/18 No Kings protest, stopped in here to get a bite before leaving town. It was super busy. I thought it would take forever, but it was actually very fast service, My pear and gouda melt was excellent. My friend had the chicken salad which she said was much better than the usual. So glad we didn't get scared off by what looked like a wait, but actually wasn't. read more

A wonderful little Cafe for breakfast, lunch, or just a snack. Stopped in for a coffee during a morning rain. Got a latte with oat milk, and it was so well prepared. Fresh ground and ever so good. It definitely hit the spot. The staff was very friendly and kind. The offerings look wonderful and highly recommend it. read more

Today I tried their pear and Gouda sandwich. Wow! The best I've had. 100% recommend. Their breakfast sandwiches and granola bowls are also great. read more

We stopped here for brunch one morning. It's not too far from the MGH redline stop or from Boston Commons. I didn't find their latte selection to be very broad or full of seasonal flavors, but they do offer the basics. I had their pear and Gouda grilled cheese which was delicious. It comes with a nice fig spread which brings alot of flavor. Between the Gouda and pear, it is the perfect blend of sweet and savory. Highly recommend. My husband had the breakfast burrito and said it was okay. He didn't feel as though it was packed with flavor and felt it was missing a sauce - maybe like a chipotle sauce. He had a vanilla latte and I had a cappuccino. My cappuccino was pretty good. My husband enjoyed his vanilla latte but I would say if you only want a coffee- this isn't the place for you. As for seating, you can sit both inside or outside. There is not much service. You purchase your meal, they deliver it and then never come back to check on you. I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing- more so- it's just how they are designed. read more

i ordered the ABLT panini and it was pretty good. i have to admit, i would come back here for many reasons. the tomato and lettuce kinda wilted i guess from being hot. i prefer them cold. maybe just toast the bread? THIS PLACE WAS HOT AS FUCK! it was a really hot 90 degree day and the fucking door was open but the ac was on? waste energy much? i mean come on!! there were so many people in there too. its like make it comfy for your customers! read more

On my Lunch break, first time trying was close by. The Pear gouda grill cheese was lacking the cheese? The cheese It was so none existent! The sliced pears was very chewy for some reason? A fresh pear would be crisp and delicious! Next I looked forward to eating The Good Fella, Prosciutto di Parma, Sopressata, Capicola, Mortadella & Provolone. To start the bread was hard and not fresh at all, I was very disappointed. Panini sandwich for $14.50 you expect to get a good portion of deli meat but that was NOT the case very very little!!(see pic below) This is a one and done for me, I will go to a spot where I can get my moneys worth because Cobblestone isn't providing good standards, freshness in its products, bread not fresh, bland pickles, quantity control and getting your moneys worth for your buck! My lunch wasn't good it was wasted money down the drain from Uber eats. read more

I got heart palpitations and felt lightheaded in the midst of my run, so I was in need of some sustenance. Cobblestones is right off Boston Commons, and it's so pretty to just walk around the Beacon Hill area. I got a chocolate croissant, which was quite buttery and flakey, and I also appreciated that the employees heated it up for me. Pastry prices aren't listed on the menu, and I was surprised to find that the croissant was $5.88 after tax, which was quite pricey considering how airy it was. I probably wouldn't come here again because of that, but the croissant definitely alleviated my palpitations. read more

We waited 40min just to get our coffee and then my husband finally got his breakfast sandwich and cold. As for getting my scone, just a scone , it came last. Very apologetic waitress but this place sucks. The one next to us didn't look very happy either. read more

At first I thought the place was too pricy but then I saw the sandwich size and it made more sense, the sandwich was huge. Pretty good too

The food is decent, the service is absolutely abysmal. Two times in a row where they first forgot about my order I had to ask the employees behind the counter three times and ended up waiting there for almost an hour after I placed an online order 30 minutes before I arrived in store. The second time not only did I wait 30 minutes but they ended up giving me only half my order. Would not recommend getting food from here on the weekend especially. The staff sadly cannot handle the influx of customers when it's busy read more

I'm so glad I stumbled upon Cobblestones while roaming around Beacon Hill! From the time I entered & throughout my entire lunch, the environment and staff were incredibly friendly. The menu is pretty similar to Tatte, however, has some staples that you can't find at the competitor. Such as açaí bowls, ice cream & a plethora of soups in house instead of only a soup of the day. I ordered the chicken avocado pita & snagged one of the lemonades in the cooler. Overall, was really pleased with both, but more so the sandwich. I'm A HUGE lemonade girl & was slightly disappointed in Cobblestone's. One thing that I would've loved was a side of chips with my sandwich that comes with it rather than having to pay extra. I believe the owner was there while I was enjoying my meal & I loved her energy and presence. She made it a point to spark conversation with guests, bring the food out personally, and was extremely hands on putting together orders. I appreciate that so much! I cannot wait to come back and try the breakfast menu! read more

Warning, probably an unfairly harsh review based off one smoothie. I came in for just a smoothie. Ordered the green machine, which was sour and not enjoyable, ended up throwing it away, which was sad for $10. The rest of the food looked good and I would consider retrying in the future, but not for a smoothie. No bathrooms. Order at the counter kinda place. Looked like a decent set up for a quick lunch. Easily the least busy place on a packed street on a Saturday at lunch time but still had a decent crowd. read more

My sandwich was made incorrectly, not the worst thing that could happen. But I wanted to leave this review to compliment the amazing food here and especially the Owner. I called during lunch time and they are usually super busy. I originally called to ask for a credit since i couldnt go back and have the sandwich remade. This wonderful woman not only remade my lunch, but she walked it over to my workplace so i could have it today for lunch!!! I have never had someone do something so kind. A++++ rating on customer service, kindness and the food. Super fresh eats. Go and try, you will not be disappointed! read more

Food 3.5/5: I got the Callie breakfast sandwich: it has two sunny side up eggs (pre-cooked and stored in a warmer), avocado (pre-made spread like thingy (not fresh avocado). pesto spread on the store bought Thomas' king size english muffin. You can choose to press them on a panini press. The overall taste is pretty good. But the materials are all premade and nothing fancy. I probably wounldn't come back for the sandwich in particular. Atmosphere 4/5: very clean and bright store front. good for a chill and sit down lunch Service: 3/5. Ok-ish service. I asked where does the bagels from for their sandwiches. I was told it's from locally bought stores, but after seeing the Thomas' english muffin bags on the shelf, I'm not super convinced they bagels are from local bakeries... read more

I go to cobblestones every day,the food is good the service is good its a wonderful place to hang out with friends, family or both

Had a wonderful lunch at this precious little cafe in Boston. It's often difficult to find delicious, fresh, good for you food when traveling. This was the perfect meal leaving us ready to walk the Freedom Trail. Hubby and I split a sandwich (The Charlie-chicken cutlet, arugula, prosciutto, fig and blue cheese and a Mediterranean salad). Service was wonderful and we had a nice chat with the owner. She was very hospitable! Grabbed a blondie for later. Everything was delicious, and I highly recommend. read more

Great food but horribly slow service! Don't go if you are in a rush. Seating area is tight.

Stopped by Cobblestones for lunch with friends. It was super crowded and didn't have that many seats. Luckily we found three seats at the high top bar. We ordered the Callie. I changed the English muffin to an everything bagel. They had açaí bowls and smoothie which is definitely on my list to get next time. read more

Consistency and hours are the main issues. Sundays with missing pastery inventory? Allowing some non-service dogs and not other neighborhood dogs? The food issue is the most persistent. The biggest issue after a full year of open is the hours. Cobblestones is leaving a ton of business on the floor to Tatte by refusing to open at the online posted hours unless the owner is unaware that the opening shift is refusing to open the doors while prepping. read more

Some of the best restaurant service! At the counter we were served by a lovely girl named Oriana who was extremely helpful and kind. Such a jovial atmosphere with an awesome team of employees. read more

Very disappointing. Excited to support a local business, but after a few attempts I'll continue to support nearby Tatte or Flour instead. I once ordered a smoothie and after waiting quite a while, I received it warm. There was no ice or cold ingredients added. It was still warm from the blender motor when I received it. More recently, I ordered a BLAT. The sandwich was very thin. One slice of bacon and one slice of small slice of cheese (that I paid extra for). For the same price, Tatte has the same sandwich that is filled with fresh ingredients. What bothered me the most was the lack of a restroom for dine-in customers. How can you not have an option for customers? I dined here 9 months pregnant and was very clearly told by the employees that they had no options available "for the public". read more

Cobblestones - Blondie - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

cute locally owned corner cafe. I believe it's family run too as I overheard the owner mention her son was working here too. I came in for a quick bite, I wanted the pear and Gouda sandwich but wanted meat on my sandwich. I added turkey to the sandwich. It was good but one side of the toast(panini) was overly toasted and I wish they used a little more fig jam. I enjoyed it but not love, really if there had been more fig jam I think this sandwich would have really popped. I would definitely come back though to try other sandwiches or from the start ask for more fig jam on the sandwich. They have an outside seating area which is nice right now with the weather being so nice. read more

I really had high hopes... we ordered but they were either out of or very low most items. No problem this happens. We ordered the very vegan salad bowl. We waited for awhile then they came back out and said they were out of farro. I guess quinoa will do. Would've been nice to know this while we were ordering but it's fine. We waited a little while more. They came out again with our salads... which had feta in it. We ordered the very vegan salad... and cheese is not vegan. So they took it back and took out the cheese. At this point we were waiting for our salads (which doesn't take long to make) for awhile even though we were one of a couple other customers at this time. Bread was a little stale but no problem. They just were out of a lot and seemed a little confused. read more

I can't believe this place is allowed to run. No customer restrooms??? Their coffee is a disaster as well. Filter coffee with matcha stirred into it does not make a proper matcha latte. This is neither a coffee shop nor restaurant- I would compare it to what students serve in their kitchen. Do not recommend. read more

Great place to eat breakfast,lunch, and dinner. The staff is attentive and nice. The owners did an excellent job with this establishment. I know Jen personally and recall when the place first opened. They made a lot of great additions to the place since it opened including the picnic meals and take home dinners. I recently moved out of Boston and made it a point to stop by for breakfast on my last day and got a tote bag to remember Cobblestones. I know they will be successful for a long time to come! read more

Pricey cute place but they have a serious problem with stock outs. Came around 545pm, closes at 7, trash bags in the DR, they were in full on closing mode. They have five soups, were out of one. Asked about a second soup..."Uh, not sure..." they were too lazy to check if they were out of that one too Worst possible service attitude. read more

Was here for a breakfast sandwich. The food was fine (though quite overpriced for what it was). The real knock here is that neither the person who helped me/made my food nor her boss were wearing a mask. The boss had his tucked under his nose. The server didn't have one at all. In the middle of yet another COVID surge, this is just irresponsible (not to mention against Boston law). read more
