    Waited over 15 mins for a coffee and bagel sandwich. Here it is - it's dry and pretty bad. Thanks Olga! 6/2 update: we did not use an online app. A worker took our order and we paid for it in person. Thanks tho

    Breakfast sandwich
    Eric B.

    Honest review - see photo. Breakfast sandwich is 8 bucks - one weird egg, a bagel that couldn't be more plain and basic (think Thomas brand in the grocery store), and what seems like a frozen sausage patty. Seemed very low quality for the cost especially considering other options around. Ice Coffee was also very, very mediocre. Also got a hash brown that was cold and soggy. Reached out to inquire about quality, no response.

    Blue Raspberry Rickey
    Brooke C.

    I got a Blue Raspberry Rickey which is a pretty cool and unique menu item to offer. It came out looking really pretty and tasting really good so I have no complaints. The little patio tables out on the sidewalk are a nice touch to enjoy your drink out on. I just wish their mobile order platform wasn't so glitchy so I could order on there before I arrive.

    Grilled cheese & tomato

    The food is not bad. Even though the grilled cheese is a bit different than what I expected, the taste is not bad. Just a bit salty to my taste. The indoor dining is horrible because their ventilation is horrible. The oily smell is everywhere and at the end, our eyes felt uncomfortable. After getting out of the restaurant, all of my clothes and my hair smell like oil. It's bad to dine in. They do have tables outside on the sidewalk though. And a lot of people come here for breakfast.

She was so excited when she found Cafe Bonjour because they had several gluten-free options on the menu. We took an Uber there right after we landed and were able to walk right in and get a table when they opened, which worked out perfectly because the place started to fill up! It's a cute little spot with plenty of seating inside, and they also had a nice outdoor parklet that would be great in good weather. We asked to sit at the bar so we could watch the cooks in action, which was really fun. The menu had all the classic breakfast favorites like eggs and French toast, along with some lunch options like hamburgers and chicken wraps. The staff was very friendly and attentive. My wife ordered the gluten-free eggs benedict and absolutely loved it. I had the Bonjour omelet, and it was delicious. Overall, this is a fantastic breakfast spot with great food, a fun atmosphere, and solid gluten-free options.

However, it's close to Boston Common and the public garden so there's things to do to while you wait. The owner and staff are super nice and friendly. They're cognizant that people wait a long time to eat at their establishment and treat you with kindness when you're inside. It is very cramped and the tables are close together, but the rustic feeling makes it a great place to catch up with 1 or 2 friends. There's a wide variety of breakfast/brunch items, so there's something on the menu for everyone. The kitchen also is good about substitutions. Additionally, the portions are reasonable for the price, especially for the area. Most entrees come with a salad, which was a fun surprise. I got the Signature Scramble and liked the variety in the dish. The eggs did have caramelized onions, which I picked out, but there was a good amount of sauce and flavor on the plate. This place has been on my Boston brunch bucket list, so I'm glad that I've gone. I'd recommend this place to people who appreciate a good meal, but wouldn't take people who are impatient or claustrophobic.

The scrambled eggs were perfectly done, not runny or gooey like other places. The potatoes perfectly seasoned and slightly crunchy out and soft inside. The Banana bourbon French toast...Is the best breakfast food I've ever had and I eat out frequently. I literally scraped my plate clean. I would have done the same with my eggs, potatoes and Turkey sausage but I couldn't eat another bite. I wish we had a North Street Grille here but perhaps it's better that I not have easy access to the quality of food otherwise I'd need a new bigger size wardrobe. If in Boston this is an ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE. If we had room and weren't leaving town the same night we'd have bought the banana bread. They provide complementary for each table and it's one of the bestest most beautifully made banana breads I've had. Service was fast and friendly. It's a cute and quaint little place packed to gills with people which is fine because everyone is friendly and the food is divine!!!!

There were only 2 of us, but we couldn't decide what to order so we got 4 items. The short rib grilled cheese was great, not too fatty (which I prefer). The fries were also good. The lobster sliders were a little too wet for us, but paired well with the fries. We underestimated the size of the salad, but it was a solid salad. My friend really enjoyed the banana bourbon French toast and she's someone that doesn't have a sweet tooth. She really liked the caramelized parts, reminded her of taffy. We killed as much as we could!

The huevos rancheros weren't anything to write home about but good.
