Breakfast sandwich is delicious. I love that it includes toppings beyond a normal sandwich, like the spicy mayo and arugula. The bread was perfectly toasted, everything tasted super fresh. Also the chai is great, not too sweet. read more

Used to be 5 star now 2. I've loved this spot for their matcha lattes since 2024 and always appreciated how consistent they were. After coming home from LA, I stopped by again expecting the same quality, but unfortunately, the matcha latte was disappointing. As they were making it, I could already tell it was going to be mostly milk, and that ended up being the case. I even looked back at a photo from 2024, and the difference was noticeable. The matcha used to be a much brighter green and had a stronger flavor. This time, it tasted straight up like oat milk with very little matcha. Paying $7 for what felt like a cup of oat milk was disappointing, especially since this used to be one of my favorite spots for matcha. Hoping they take this into consideration to making what it used to be. I've always had great experiences here in the past but today. Please see the matcha now (pic w the bush) vs the matcha before. read more

This is such a cute, local coffee shop. I love that they have an outside ordering window. They make their drinks pretty quick too! I love their matchas, but am not the biggest fan of their iced lattes because they are too sweet for me. The weekday breakfast sandwich is also a 10/10. read more

Saw some good reviews about this place so decided to drop by in the morning. Was very happy with the croissant that I got, very buttery and flakey, just what I like in the croissant. The vanilla latte I got was on the sweeter side, so be wary of that if you don't like your coffee sweet. Make sure you swirl and mix the drink up well otherwise all sweet syrup kind of just sits towards the bottom. read more

I've heard amazing things about Greystone, so I was very excited to jump at an opportunity to stop by one morning! The interior is pretty large, especially for South End standards, so it seems like a nice spot to sit and relax. The staff are also super friendly and nice, so it really feels like a local neighborhood staple. I ordered an almond croissant and a mocha. The almond croissant was delicious and definitely something I'd order again. The mocha unfortunately was not my favorite at all... it honestly didn't taste like much to me besides just milk. I'm not sure if they just had an off day, but I was disappointed after hearing all the hype. I hope to give this place another try one day! read more

They have a great walkup window that got a "The Ham" & "The Roast Beef" both were on high quality bread with nice flavors. I have gotten their coffee before and enjoyed it but went with an iced tea which was very nice. It's a great spot to see nice dogs with lots of parks in the area. read more

Hole in the wall to order, nice service, kind of busy, but not awful. Coffee was OK but iced latte was grainy for some reason. Not sure if it was the espresso or almond milk? The drip was quite good. read more

Visiting friends in the South End this weekend who recommended Greystone Cafe for a hearty and healthy lunch! We tried the turkey sandwich, BLT, and spring harvest bowl. We absolutely loved everything!! We loved the lemon and sundried tomato combination of the spring harvest bowl. We also really loved the mustard on the turkey sandwich!! Also not pictured were the date balls - I tried both the lemon pistachio and coconut cashew! They were the perfect sweet treat to top off a delicious lunch. I would suggest adding a chocolate chip variation of the coconut cashew for us chocolate lovers!! read more

The perfect coffee counter tucked away in the city! I came on a Saturday morning and the line at the counter was quite long. They were running out of some of their pastries but they had a very extensive menu. I really enjoyed my iced vanilla latte. It was definitely more on the bitter side and I usually enjoy a sweeter coffee but I still very much enjoyed this one. Will certainly be back read more

I LOVE this spot! It has to be one of my favorite cafe's in all of Boston! Although it definitely gets busy at times, when you're lucky enough to snag a table, this is the perfect place to enjoy a full lunch or a light snack with friends. The atmosphere is bustling with a refreshingly joyful vibe and all the food the menu has to offer is amazing! I have no notes on this spot. You must try it!! I definitely recommend their matcha latte (it's the perfect balance of creamy, earthy, and sweet) as well as any baked good. Their banana bread is delicious: so moist, flavorful, and fluffy! If you want some baked goods though, make sure you go earlier in the day before they run out or stop serving breakfast. And be sure to check their menu for specials! read more

Yes, this is a cute cafe but the quality of drinks aren't there yet. The flat white tasted like burnt coffee beans and the matcha latte was not strong at all- very milky based and the color was grey light grey green which means poor quality matcha. It tasted sweet and the barista didn't ask me if I wanted it sweetened or anything. Maybe the food here is better from other reviews but there's also many other options around the area. read more

I came to greystone for the first time to try the summer chippy series (ice cream sandwiches with grey stone cookies and Toscanini ice cream). This is such a treat! I love this idea for the summer and that they have unique flavors every week. I tried the flavor of the week "london fog" which was lavender cookies with earl grey ice cream, I was skeptical as someone who doesn't usually prefer fragant flavors but it was a good combo. Still sweet and decadent and like nothing I have had before. I will say it is an expensive sweet treat ($9-10), but a treat for sure. Service was super friendly, despite the dreary day, and made great recommendations! read more

Come for the baked goods, coffee was a miss for me. There's always a line outside on weekends but I can't say that I don't get the hype. Go and order inside instead of at the window and I've found that has been faster. I found the pastries to be very reasonably priced and delicious! I want to go try more of them but the croissants are excellent especially after warming them up. I think I may need to try a different coffee drink but the iced coffee was a bit on the watery and more sour side the day I came in. I'd come back even if it was just for pastries. read more

Great vibes overall, but drinks are just average and service was just okay. I got their Iced Matcha Latte w/ oat milk and their specialty strawberry almond homemade syrup but I barely tasted any matcha as it was completely overpowered by the strawberry almond homemade syrup. I also ordered a Matcha Dulcey Choc Cookie which was never given to me - and because my friends and I were in a rush, I forgot about it as well and left :/ Total came out to $10.56 for the drink and the cookie. read more

Genuinely the best vibes in the South End! Everyone is so happy and the window setup makes it perfect for spring and summer. They have an incredible cold brew and although I haven't tried their pastries, they looked spectacular. The location makes it the perfect coffee walk destination and although it gets super popular depending on the time you go, the service is almost immediate when you order. Can't recommend this spot enough, especially as the weather gets warmer! read more

One of my favorite cafes in Boston. In a charming spot, and I love the walk up window. The seasonal pastries make it a fun spot to be a usual customer at. I get a plain latte and it's good but I can't speak to their other house made syrup flavors but I would imagine they are great as well. I love their crinkle cookies the most and their current seasonal marmalade bar is spectacular. read more

Solid place for coffee/tea/chai in the South End area. Has a very similar vibe to Boston's Tatte. The place was packed on a weekday around noon time, but the drinks came out quick. There is only one bathroom in here so I had to wait in a line a bit but the bathroom itself was very clean. The chai here is very good. read more

My latte was pretty good and I could tell that they handmade the egg bites back there! Good service and nice team. read more

Ordered the granola bar which was delicious (I wish I could make it myself at home and knew what they put in it - it was so filling and chewy!) Their coffees were good as well and I like that they have house made syrups. Unfortunately they were out of a lot of pastries when my friend and I came but I guess that is a testament to how good they are. Seating is very limited so I find this to be more of a pick up place. read more

Lovely cafe! There is a window outside for ordering as well as a spot to order inside. The person working there was very helpful when I asked for a pastry recommendation, and I ended up loving the morning bun that I ordered. The cafe has a cute spot for outdoor seating that is tucked away. They also have signs about not using laptops there - it's a spot for conversation and relaxation, not work. read more

I tried Greystone while staying at the Marriott for a conference because I much prefer finding local coffee shops than drinking overpriced hotel coffee. Greystone is only a 10 minute walk through a beautiful neighborhood, so not bad to get to in the morning. I ended up only trying a breakfast sandwich, which was tasty but seemed to have too much sauce smothering the egg flavors. The bacon was only a few crumbles, not an actual piece. I was a little disappointed. I also wanted to try the coffee, but after asking what kind they had and getting a quizzical look from the person as the register, I decided against it. They noted it was not too strong, despite showing me a bag that clearly indicated "wild". ?? This place clearly has a following of patrons willing to stand out in the heat to wait for their online orders, so perhaps my first visit was a hiccup. read more

After seeing so many raving reviews online, I've been looking forward to trying this place. I love the idea of a walk-up window and how it's in the middle of a beautiful neighborhood. I got an iced matcha latte with oat milk and peach puree. I was a bit disappointed because it tasted mostly of milk and didn't have a very strong matcha taste. The peach puree tasted like it was freshly made but also didn't have a ton of flavor. Next time, I would probably skip the drink and get one of their sandwiches or baked goods. read more

This is located around many houses so I thought it would be a pretty good neighborhood coffee. However, when I had question about the coffee the employees didn't really seem to know and had to ask others, I like to observe from a far when my coffee is being made and seemed like the barista didn't really know either because they asked others for the steps to make my coffee(perhaps they were in trying). Coffee itself was mid, the black tulip flavor was nice/interesting. I got a ham and cheese croissant which was good in size and tasted good but found it expensive compared to a coffee shop I had tried the day before. For my coffee and croissant I paid almost $12. As for the place, it's small inside, some variety in seating, nice and clean but they have a no laptop policy. I have never seen that policy at a coffee place, which makes me believe locals would probably not get coffee from here. They don't show a lot of the prices so had to hope it wasn't too bad. read more

Cool that they have a walk up order window. Basic vibes. I ordered a iced strawberry matcha. I wanted it hot but they only had iced. It tasted mostly like milk and strawberry. Wish it had a stronger matcha flavor. Their Blt was pretty good especially bc of the balsamic which added a nice acidic sweetness. read more

Five stars, no notes. We stayed near Greystone and starting each morning with a walk through Boston's brownstone-lined streets to grab coffee there felt like a dream.

The space is beautifully classic with a clean, minimal vibe, and the service is quick and efficient. read more

Been here twice now and it's been a nice experience both times. Cortado was a little milky the first time but still good. Definitely better my second visit, probably just variability between baristas. Drip coffee is decent but pricey for it not being anything special. Tried the chocolate croissant the first time, which is currently my favorite croissant in Boston. Flaky on the outside, light and airy on the inside, nicely butter dough, good amount of semisweet chocolate (not too little and not milk chocolate). The earl grey ginger scone was also excellent. Nice crust on the outside, moist but not too dense on the inside. The earl grey comes through nicely and it also has some pieces of candied ginger, which I really liked. Haven't had anything like it and would definitely get it again. Service has been friendly and prompt. The inside is nice and I appreciate that most of the cafe is laptop-free, though seating is fairly limited so you have to get lucky if it's busy, or you may just need to stand at the middle table. There's also a small outdoor seating area with a couple tables. read more

Very cute spot that is pretty accessible as we were in the Back Bay area. They have a handful of pastries and sandwiches that are good for both breakfast and lunch, but we just hopped in for some coffee/tea. Cortado was delicious and I also got a matcha. It was a bit sweet for my taste. It was a bit of a bummer that they use a matcha syrup so they are unable to control sweetness. We were able to find a spot to sit, but I can see it being pretty difficult to find seating on the weekend. read more
