    Some good sauces for the tenders, featuring their signature honey mustard in the middle.
    Gary G.

    Small over-the-counter takeout operation with about a half dozen stools and window counter. Lots of subs in the menu, as well as seafood platters, but I was here for their famous chicken fingers and honey mustard. - Chicken Fingers Dinner: $17 and change for 10 fingers, fries, and a side salad or coleslaw wasn't bad at all. Sizable fingers, but this style I call tenders, and tender they were. Crisp, but delicate, very much like fried clams, and the chicken underneath was tender and very moist. Good stuff with or without the dipping sauce. - Sauces: The honey mustard was smooth, slippery, sweet, and tangy. Very enjoyable. I also liked their Buffalo (more like straight Frank's) and Boom sauce (ranch with seasonings). - Fries: Very solid. Not sure if hand cut, but if they were frozen, they were unusually good. Lots of long pieces, and they tasted potatoey, not like industrial starch. - Coleslaw: Little to no vinegar, predominantly if not entirely mayo, but a thinned-down mayo, so not too heavy. Very crisp thin-cut cabbage, most likely in a mandolin. Enjoyable. Service: Very friendly.

    Buffalo tender dinner plate (10 tenders)

    Buffalo tender dinner plate, comes with 10 breaded buffalo tenders, a huge amount of fries (under foil), side of mixed salad and blue cheese (honey mustard was given to taste as they are known for it) All for 20+ dollars. Amazing huge portion, cheap meal and great quality. Service was very friendly even with the phone constantly ringing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small "shack" take out place but has bar stools to eat in and like 6 people in the kitchen working to get all the orders done.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great spot!

    These chicken tenders are absolutely worth the hype! They're perfectly crunchy on the outside while also incredibly juicy and tender inside. The platter is a bit pricey, but also plenty of food for two. We ordered it with half fries and half onion rings, and thought the onion rings tasted a bit better. And the famous honey mustard sauce is famous for a reason - well balanced and the perfect complement to the tenders. I'd definitely go back!

    So good! I Heard so much about this place and I'm so glad I finally got to visit. It's classic on the inside with a small amount of high top window seating if you want to dine in. The menu had way too many options and I was overwhelmed even though I already knew what I wanted. I got the infamous chicken tender sub drenched in honey mustard. It was so tasty! At first I wasn't sure how it would work but I figured it out. Heads up it is a big sub. I also ordered mozzarella sticks and wings to split with my friend but we definitely were eating with our eyes. Can't wait to come again and try other options on the menu.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is very small shop, mom and pop vibes with a few high pub chairs and a small parking lot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This place is popular and I was in line and order my food and waited about 15 minutes. I had fish and chips and Greek salad , chicken tenders , slice of carrot cake, slice of cheese and pepperoni pizza. The lady who took my order was super nice . The fish was amazing , especially with the tartar sauce . It was finger licking good . The ranch sauce for the chicken fingers was scrumptious, best ranch I ever had. By the way I'm a meat eater and the slice of cheese pizza was tasty. The Greek salad was a tad disappointing, the side sad that comes with the fish and chips /chicken tender taste way better The carrot cake was delightful , it hit all my taste buds after the first bite I need to come back and try another item in the menu. I also like how they package everything to go and even fold the tip of the bag, nice and secure

    TLDR: I only came to try the maple cruller, and BOY did it…read moredeliver. I'm no cruller expert, but I think folks might be right when they all say this is the best one in the game. Would come back just for this cruller, and am willing to try their other items now that I know what they're capable of. ------ FOOD: 1. [MUST TRY] MAPLE CRULLER (5/5) As good as everyone says it is. The exterior is so satisfyingly crispy, but the interior has the exact right soft, eggy consistency that defines the cruller. The maple glaze is definitely very sweet, but somehow it actually works well with the fried dough such that it's not overpowering. Maple is their most popular flavor, but they also have other flavors and monthly specials to try. 2. DRIP COFFEE Perfectly fine drip coffee. The mugs they give you are smaller than their to-go cups, so probably opt for your coffee to-go, especially if you plan to go on a little stroll after accidentally eating 6 crullers for breakfast... ------ ENVIRONMENT / AMBIANCE: * A large, spacious cafe that had a NY, tiled environment mixed with a more laidback Tatte vibe * More seating inside than I thought there would be (though a mix of individual tables, a communal high top, counter seats by the window, and tables outside) * One design issue though is that the ordering counter is right at the front door, meaning there's actually very little space for the line and so on bad weather days, you might be caught waiting outdoors under the elements vs. indoors. I'm sure there are some days where the line naturally forms inside, but the way the space is designed does not make that easy

Chocolate Croissant: A simple and straightforward croissant with a chocolate stick inside. Using dark chocolate prevented it from being too sweet, which is a plus.

Right near Harvard cafe this is a very spacious cafe with lots of space to sit / work. They also have free wifi. I was here on a Sunday afternoon and the place was packed! From students to uncles having business meetings (iykyk). I really was expecting for them to have some type of chai (Yemeni or some sort). But the only chai they had was Egyptian black tea or chai latte. I settled for a chai latte with coconut milk which came to around $6. This price is on par with the cafes in the area. The chai was very sweet and had a strong spice taste which tasted like it was made from a syrup. Not the best cup of tea. Their menu has a lot of items.
