Also the banana flavor syrup they use is very fake tasting this place would level up if they used real banana syrup for their matcha My latte was ruined with the poor quality syrup they use. Anyway the location is nice because u can sit outside or walk around chestnut hill with your drink.

Some group tables are on the sidewalk outside. I had a cold brew that was awesome, and one of the better bagels with spread that I've had in recent memory. Music is not too loud, and perfect for working. Staff here are chatty and friendly, and are super helpful, even coming around to me as I was sitting down to ask if I had the wi-fi info yet. There are a few outlets along the wall, so you should be able to get a charge as long as you have a long enough charger. While food and drink is great here, think the seating is a bit of a restriction, as it seems like I got a seat only by luck. But catch me stopping by again off-peak hours for a solid work session!

A few technical notes: the egg sandwiches are available UNTIL 11am on weekdays and noon on weekends. Alas, I was too late, so I could not get one to review. The bagels last until they're gone.

The gender neutral bathroom is disability accessible, but the entranceway, alas, is not.

So let me start by saying I will give this place another try in some weeks…read more I got there around 10:40am and the whole entire pastry display was empty save one scone. Not sure how that works being they close at 3pm. They did have two jars of cookies. I was disappointed to also find out that they don't make the pastries in house. When I asked about this, the worker behind the counter didn't at least tell me where they get them. I asked if the matcha was ceremonial grade and the worker gave a vague response that did not answer the question. The matcha was also very bland. I also got one of the cookies, oatmeal raisin. It was pretty "meh". I will say it was huge and only $3, so there's that. The atmosphere also lacked personality. I've just moved to the area and have been looking for a great cafe and so far haven't found "it" yet. I'll keep looking!

Not sure if the trains cause problems or not...but the wi-fi drops all the time. Otherwise the place is fine except it is pretty expensive for a coffee shop...making using the wi-fi feel like something you are paying for. I will definitely give it another try. read more

We have been twice and don't really have anything negative to say…read more I have enjoyed the artichoke quiche and love getting their fraises creme (strawberries in cream). Hubs has had their sandwiches and smores croissant which he enjoys. The service has always been pleasant, but it isn't your normal dining service. You order your food, receive a number, and then pick your seat where your food is brought to you. It is meant to resemble a French café, but the seating is very tight. With friendly company seated nearby, not a problem, but as the saying goes, you can't always pick your neighbors (read into that as you will :) ). This is a solid spot whether you are looking for just something light or a nice lunch/brunch. There has been a line both times we have stopped in but we have found you are only waiting in it for about 5 to 10 mins depending on how decisive those in line in front of you are. It can add up quickly in price if you are looking to try a few things, which we generally do, but we have no complaints so far.

While we were waiting for food, I explored the store attached. Very cute flower shop and gift boutique. I'm not sure if they share the same owners? If so they should put a sign above the restaurant side door to advertise the shop. Maybe they can get some shoppers after breakfast/lunch? Back to the food, I had the goat cheese and sun-dried tomato quiche ($16) and it was a little too strongly flavored for me. Normally I love these two ingredients on pizza or in pasta, but this was a lot. For me, needed more egg. It didn't stop me from eating it though! We shared a Brioche French toast ($16) for the table, like an appetizer. It had a peach butter that was interesting. I think next time I want to try a Scrambled egg sandwich ($15) and add sausage patties. ($5) I saw a guy get that and it looked amazing. Now he knows how to order!
