Tatte Bakery is such a staple in Boston that I have to stop by everytime I'm in the city. While it doesn't have the local charm of more mom and pop bakeries, you can always get a solid pastry or casual meal here. This recent trip, I was famished after landing and stopped by for a quick lunch. I really wanted to try the Jerusalem bagel so I got the egg in a hole which comes with the bagel and the pistachio croissant for a sweet treat. Loved the egg in a hole, the bagel is nice and crunchy on the outside with a soft pillowly center and the sesame seeds add so much flavor and a great nuttiness! The pistachio croissant is good as well but a little too sweet for my liking. The best part about Tattes is that there's usually ample seating to chat with friends or get some work done. They also do open later than other bakeries around making it a great place to hang out at.

Fruit tart and tiramisu
Olesya P.

Great bakery with a large indoor and outdoor seating. They have a pretty large selection of very nice desserts, and pastries. Service is basically self serve, but they are pretty friendly. Nothing exceptional. Also, great option for lunch, they have sandwiches and other small plates if you want something like that. Also they have an extensive menu of the tea and coffee. Overall very good experience.

Cappuccino

The Third Street Tatte in Cambridge is much smaller than the one in Cambridge Crossing, and voices bounce off the walls a lot more (something I've noticed in several Tattes now because there's no soft furnishings to absorb the sound). Not a great place to spend too much time in because of the noise level and cramped space. I also noticed the food smells stick to clothing so a venting issue that I haven't noticed in other cafes. Food and coffees are consistently good though.

Pistachio croissant- meh
Jessica W.

Food: pistachio croissant, almond croissant, avocado toast, breakfast plate. They didn't have ketchup. I like pistachio but didn't really care for the croissant. I prefer almond croissants so I'd try that next time. My daughter didn't care for the potatoes on the breakfast plate. Service: friendly and fast. Ambiance: some indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside but all the trucks were pretty loud so I recommend sitting inside.

Pistachio cherry tart
Sandra S.

Came back to chat with some girl friends for an early lunch on Sunday. Plenty of seating. The Shakshuka was very filling and pretty good. The pistachio cherry tart is still a goodie but the recent versions that I have tasted have been a bit drier to me and is more a 8.5/10. Still a delicious snack but harder to justify the $7.50 price tag. I think it needs more cherry or a cherry jam spread in between to help have more tartiness and complexity. Friendly service. Clean space.

Tatte bakery interior
Kevin Z.

Tatte is a Boston staple nowadays and have been popping up a lot in recent years. The interior of the store and atmosphere is really cool, music can be a bit loud sometimes. The drinks are a bit on the pricier side but the food is really good. Would recommend the pastries and the house latte. They have a semi seasonal menu so get them while they last.

Smoke salmon sandwich
Lilian Z.

Came on a Tuesday morning and it was decently busy. Had a matcha latte and the smoked salmon sandwich. The matcha was decent, but the powder wasn't fully mixed so it was a bit grainy. The sandwich was good - warm with a great balance of salty, creamy, and comforting elements. Price is normal for the area ($18 for the 2 items) but I wasn't blown away by anything. I'll come back for a quick snack or lunch though!

Vegetarian Leek, Potato & Spinach Quiche & Salad and pistachio croissant

Such an amazing cafe! Love Tatte! Always a great experience. The quiche and croissant were both really good

Salty hummus and huge stems left over in the hard to chew Winter Farro Bowl. Tossed it at this point
Sundar J.

This has the same menu as other locations but it's really been a miss here. Everything in the winter farro bowl was too hard to chew--the farro, the huge broccoli stems, the stringy spinach...and at the end I was left with a bunch of too salty hummus. The lentil soup was bland and came lukewarm. The pita sandwich was very bland and mostly unchewable broccoli as well. All the flavored lattes-- chai, pistachio, and date are too sweet and ALWAYS come lukewarm. They'd be perfect if they stopped adding so much sugar and actually made them hotter, because they're otherwise flavorful. The Krembo had so little flavor that I wondered if it was display food or real food. Then tried the teramisu and it was also really bland. Service is great though. Just everything here was so bland and I would not pay for any of them again. Idk if the Harvard location is better or if I just ordered better items there because I mostly like the things I ordered at Harvard.

This Cafe had one of the creamiest pistachio lattes that I have ever tried. They used real pistachios in the latte along with the lightest foam on top. 2 shots of expresso was perfect for me as it gave me the little boost that I needed. The bakery had so much to choose from and everything was very clean and tidy. I got the Sundried tomato Feta scone. I wish I would have bought 2 because they were delicious. 100 times better than Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts

Jerusalem Bagel
Adina S.

I've always been a big fan of Tatte. Everything I've tried there is top tier, so it's no surprise they have a great reputation. This location is no exception. Generally, I would warn that they get really busy on weekend morning, so be prepared for lines, but it's worth the wait! There isn't as much seating here as some of the other locations, such as Harvard, which has an entire upstairs area, but they do have a few additional tables outside. For food, I'm not a huge pastry fan in general, but their stuff is delicious. I'm a big fan of the shakshuka, which is the perfect hearty breakfast. I also love the Jerusalem bagel, which has a delicious sesame flavor and just the right amount of chew. Always a convenient spot, especially if im craving something sweet!

roasted veggie sandwich
Grace X.

I had the roasted veggie sandwich (vegan) from a catered event and it was extremely delicious. The catering presentation was really nice and all the sandwiches and desserts looked incredible. Unfortunately they don't seem to have vegan desserts on the menu, which would be a nice addition.

Soup
Bridget L.

The staple Boston cafe. My favorite is their French toast (only available on weekends). It's so custardy & fluffy! I also recommend the short rib grilled cheese and turkey avocado sandwich. Their flaky pastries are pretty dry (Flour has a leg up here fs), but I do like their tea cakes. Can be a little crowded but can usually find a table. Everyone knows Tatte but somehow it still feels underrated to me??

The Italian Sub recommended by ChatGPT, originated in 1995. The place claims to provide the best…read moreItalian sub in Boston, and it truly was excellent. Italian Sub: $20 for a foot long, the meat was so plentiful it's almost overflowing, enough for two meals. The prisciutto was tender and juicy; the salami was firm and savory with a strong smokiness. Both are thinly sliced, so despite the thick stack, it was relatively easy for a bite. The provolone cheese was also generously portioned, with a robust yet not spicy flavor and a subtle nutty aroma, perfectly complementing the two meats. The olive oil and balsamic vinegar were particularly outstanding: mellow, tangy, and with a fruity aroma of grapes, key to the complex flavor profile. The lettuce, tomatoes, and onions were all fresh, especially the onions were refreshing and a little zingy, perfect for removing the greasiness. Unfortunately, I was worried about not being able to roll it back up properly and making it inconvenient to carry (which it actually happened), so I took it away and ate it at the office. After about 40 minutes, the bread had become somewhat dry and hard.

Arguably the best sandwich in Boston I was not let down by Monica's…read more The line was long on a Sunday but very orderly and went smoothly. The sandwiches themselves are massive and freshly made. The bread is the right amount of soft to crust. All in all I wouldn't change a thing it's definitely a must go.

The interior gave me diner vibes - very laid back and comfortable. At 11:30 it was pretty much empty. It seems like most people get their food to go. Service was prompt and friendly. I ordered the Tofused Banh Mi - tofu, pickled veg, basil, cilantro, and a fried egg on a brioche bun. Definitely not a traditional banh mi but very tasty nonetheless! The teriyaki-like glaze was a little sweet for me and I would have preferred some more spice to balance it out but all in all I was very happy with my visit here and would definitely come back.
