Just from passing by, you could smell the delicious aroma, so I instantly knew I had to try this place out. The staff were extremely kind and I ended up going with a chocolate swirl and it was so soft and flavorful. The prices are also very reasonable being the quality of the products and the next time I'm in Salem, I will definitely be stopping in! read more

Spinach Labneh Pita: I tried this from Tatte's catering at a tea break at our institute. The Pita bread was a bit thicker than imagined, while labneh's sourness was strong and satisfying. Overall it was just acceptable. read more

While visiting the Harvard campus, we stumbled upon Tatte Bakery and decided to stop in. I usually order a matcha latte, but I was severely disappointed this time--it tasted like watered down grass, lacking the rich, smooth flavor I expected. The bakery was bustling with customers dining in and taking out, but despite the crowd, I didn't quite understand the hype around it. Overall, it felt overrated based on my experience. read more

Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon after exploring Harvard. The line took about 20 minutes for me to get to the register. It was a little difficult to find seating for 4 people, and we waited until a table left before sitting down. I'm not sure if clearing tables is the customer's responsibility or the staff, but the lunch plates were never cleared in the hour I spent there to enjoy my pastries and drinks. The pastries were by far the star of the show, deliciously sweet and decadent without being too sugary, and we chose the sugar vanilla donut and the morning bun (their cinnamon roll). As you can see, my group snapped it up before I could grab a pic! However their drinks left much to be desired. I had the tatte house latte and I thought that the cinnamon was overwhelming and the other flavors (cardamom, honey) were faint. My mom simply had a latte and she said it was mediocre. My little brother's mango mint refresher was decent, and so was my uncle's cappuccino. The coffee itself didn't shine through either. They do offer oat milk substitutes which was nice. I will say that the interior was nice, location is convenient, and as is with all popular places, it gets particularly busy on the weekends. read more

A friend and I ordered two drinks: an Iced matcha latte and the tatte house latte! The tatte house latte surprised me so much! It has a cinnamon-like taste, and it was subtly sweet, just the way I like it. The matcha latte was pleasing to look at it especially with the logo written in cursive. The taste was equally very good! Service was kind and quickly responsive! There were a lot of families around noon on a Sunday. A couple of accidental spills occurred yet the staff and the people there were able to help each other, so already the environment felt quite friendly and supportive in this regards! In spite of the gloomy day, the interior lighting created a warm, kind atmosphere. read more

Tatte Bakery & Café has a ton of locations around Boston, so I figured I'd give it a try. As a disclaimer, this was my first time trying Mediterranean food (and also my last). I was feeling adventurous and ordered a few things I'd never heard of, but honestly, this was probably the worst food and drink experience I've ever had. I didn't finish a single dish, which says a lot because I'm usually very against wasting food. The food was at least edible, but the honey halva latte was the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted, and that's coming from someone who regularly drinks black coffee. Very disappointing for my first meal in Boston. read more

Tatte, we sure liked you a latte! Visited Boston/Cambridge for 28 hours on our girls' adventures in New England! After wandering around Harvard, we grabbed an amazing lunch at Latte in Harvard Square! We each had the summer drink specials- faves were the white peach and mint tea, mango and ginger tea! Our plates were perfect- absolutely perfect- the crunchy halloumi salad was the best salad I've had in many moons- I think of it too often! My friends went the sandwich route with filling options of the turkey avocado and the short rib grilled cheese. As a sweet treat, we shared a vanilla lime krembo- if you have a sweet tooth, you're going to love this- the lime curd center was the cat's meow for me! There are many Tatte locations, but to be able to enjoy the sunshine and delicious treats across the way from the gates of Harvard University... well, there isn't a better spot! read more

First time visiting boston so of course I had to try Tatte bakery. They had a huge selection of pastries but I decided to order an iced vanilla latte and an apple turnover. Iced latte: (5/5) Vanilla wasn't too sweet and the espresso was good quality. Apple turnover: (4/5) They didn't serve it warm which I found odd but besides that it was good. I'm not sure if u can ask them to warm it but if you can I would suggest doing so. Overall this place was good but the line is usually really long (especially the bathroom!!!) and there's so many cafes to try in the area so I would rather explore others the next time i'm in boston. read more

I work in Cambridge and wish there was a Tatte back home in RI! This is one of my all time favorite cafes. It's esthetically beautiful, welcoming, and gives off upscale classy cafe vibes. The cafe is very clean and the Harvard Square location even has an upstairs. There is plenty of seating. Since I drive in for work, I often have my vehicle with me and it can be a very busy area. I got lucky this time and found on street meter parking right outside the building. The cashier was a superstar! She offered great suggestions and I splurged and got every single thing she recommended. Amazing service from each person at the cafe. The staff is so attentive. Upon ordering, my pastries were already bagged and delivered once I cashed out. I got an Iced Pistachio latte and it was delicious! Being a Coffee-Holic - Usually these Pistachio lattes are hit or miss if it is not made right or too artificial but Tatte's Pistachio Latte was absolutely perfect! Smooth, velvety, great quality, and a nice subtle flavor. Just a heads up, it does have some texture in it with the Pistachio's but I really enjoyed it. If you're not a texture person, I would recommend a flavor shot latte. I also got the ham and cheese croissant and chocolate croissant - warm and flaky! 10/10!!! read more

Staff do not read their tickets carefully and as a result deliver food orders to the wrong customer. Is it really that difficult?

We stopped by for a quick breakfast at this place twice during our trip. The bakery items looked great and the ones we tasted were really delicious. Most of the sandwiches were great except one that was little too salty. French toast was amazing. The service is friendly and quick. This place gets crowded so if you are looking for calm relaxing coffee time, this place is not it. read more

Ordered several pastries for corporate event. Driver arrived with one bag per pastry instead of all in one box. He handed us a bunch of bags and left. Some items were missing. By the time I finished checking each bag he had driven away. I thought maybe he left it in the car. I texted and called the number associated with the driver and there was no answer. I called Tatte and asked them to deliver the missing items. They told me I had to place a new delivery order. By then it was too late - the event had started. We don't order from Tatte anymore. Don't trust their delivery - it sucks. Plenty of other good bakeries in the area. read more

One thing about this Tatte location - it's gonna be crowded. Weekends are the worst but even on weekdays it can be hard to find a seat. They did just open the second floor seating back up which makes it a little cozier (and easier to find a seat). There's still outdoor seating right now but I'm not sure if that's only because the weather so far has been pretty mild. I have ordered the same thing the last two times I came - the butternut squash hummus and roasted veggie pita. I love it! The roasted veggies pair so well with the creamy and savory hummus. The hummus flavor is very unique - the butternut squash makes it really smooth with a hint of sweetness, and there's a nice kick from the spices (I think I mainly taste cumin). The pita itself is fluffy and warm and they don't skimp on the veggies. Wish this wasn't a seasonal item! read more

It is definitely a bakery with a full blown kitchen for breakfast. They offer bakery goods as well as a breakfast menu, mainly a variety of egg sandwiches. They have a large community table inside with a half dozen tables outside that handle nine people. The plan is for the tables to be shared because how many parties of nine are out there. The also have stools looking out the window. I am not sure what they do during the winter when there is no seating outside. Right across the street from Harvard, they must have a substantial take-out business. I had the Muesli which is yogurt, fresh fruit including blackberries, raspberry and sliced apple with a layer of granola. The yogurt was delicious. I usually look at the items ordered by other people before I decide what to order. Their egg dishes looked tempting. They had plenty of staff to handle the traffic. They give everyone that orders from the kitchen a number so they know where to deliver the food. If I am in Harvard square, I found my breakfast stop. read more

Never tried this chain before , we were on a college tour and wanted something to eat right after so we stepped in The menu and the pastries both looked promising , and I ended up ordering the shakshuka . Despite not being the best one I ever had it was pretty descent and I liked the quantity and the overall experience . The tomato sauce is out of a can but is not bad at all. I will come back to perhaps try the pistachio croissant which was looking promising ! read more

I always love the black sesame latte from Tatte! It's very smooth with a subtle black sesame flavor. I also tried the pistachio croissant this time and it was a little dry inside. This location is very busy and difficult to find seating. read more

We doubted if it would be good based on how many locations there are but we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast! We stopped at the location in Cambridge on a Friday, there was a long line but it moved quick. Getting seats can be tricky especially if there's more than two of you. We had the pear tart, pizza focaccia, and shashuka and everything was delicious! The pear tart is not overly sweet and it is well balanced. The focaccia is fresh and the toppings are yummy. Shashuka is fresh and the bread it comes with is pillowy soft. read more

It's my first time trying out Tatte Bakery and Cafe! I didn't know they are a large cafe chain in the Northeast. We came in the afternoon for tea and some light pastries. I really recommend their teas and pastries! The blue flower earl gray was amazing! The pot is a good choice having more tea, which is just perfect with the pear tart. I highly recommend the pear tart. It's perfectly baked and balanced of flavors. Not too sweet, but just enough for your tea. It's a busy place Sunday afternoon with students, but you can find some open tables in between. read more

Came in twice on weekdays in the summer. Pretty crowded but nothing crazy, line moved quickly. Pros: beautiful selection of pastries, ample seating upstairs and downstairs, accessible water, lots of natural light. Cons: not much in the way of hot food if you are vegetarian--ordered tomato bisque soup both days, (was decent) and both days my order was forgotten and I had to go back for the soup while my friend ate. staff weren't the friendliest. read more

We were so tired after touring Harvard's campus and we were searching for a nice place to chill and have a little snack. This place is perfect for that! I got a chai tea, tiramisu, and a passion fruit krembo. The chai tea was the perfect sweetness, unlike most cafes that make it overly sweet! The passion fruit krembo was amazing too. At first I thought it was too sweet but when I hit the sour passion fruit curd, it balanced everything out. Above all that , the service was great! 100% recommend! read more

This place is always BOOMING! There is usually a line out the door on the weekends or peak hours. They have an outside area with tables plus ground level and upstairs dining. They serve pastries, food, coffee, and tea here. The service is pretty quick, we got our food and drinks in 10 minutes. The roasted cauliflower sandwich (pine nuts, spicy labneh, raisins, chilies, cilantro, and capers) is the absolute best! It's relatively healthy and delicious with a little spicy kick to it. The prosciutto and fig panini sounded good, but the taste wasn't there. read more

I met some friends at Tatte's last weekend for breakfast. One of my friends is gluten free, and we were pleasantly surprised to find that Tatte's has an entire gluten free menu separate from the regular menu! This was so nice to find, given that most other places have just a few gluten free options or are willing to make certain substitutions. Tatte's certainly hit it out of the park with this! Location-wise, this bakery is centrally located in Cambridge and right across the street from Harvard. As we were walking there, we encountered a wonderful street market, as well, that spanned several blocks and offered live music, tons of food, and other goodies. Tatte's itself is pretty big, with 2 floors of seating. The main pastry/food bar is downstairs, which is where you order, and there seemed to be a bar upstairs, as well. Since it's a popular place, it was a bit challenging to find seating, but we eventually found a cute seating area with some couches and chairs. Half of us waited online while the other half guarded the seats, and after about a 15 min wait, we ordered our food. The food came out quickly and was all delicious! We were all happy with what we had chosen. I split food with my friend and we shared the smoked salmon, egg, and avocado sandwich as well as the savory french toast. As we were leaving, we grabbed some pastries to go. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area! read more

This is a great cafe/bakery near Harvard's campus, perfect for a casual breakfast or brunch before exploring Cambridge. My friends and I stopped here on our way to walk through Harvard on a Sunday morning. The cafe was quite full, and we had a little bit of trouble finding seating. We waited on line for about 15 minutes. One member of our party is Celiac, and we were pleased to find an entire gluten free menu as well as gluten free pastries ready to go. I split a savory French toast and a sandwich with smoked salmon, eggs, and avocado with a friend. Everything was delicious! There are gender neutral bathrooms available on the first floor, and I believe there are additional bathrooms on the second floor. I recommend getting pastries to go! There is street parking available as well as paid lots. Overall, I was very happy with Tatte's! Everything was tasty and the presentation was incredible. If I'm ever back in the area, I'll definitely be paying them another visit! read more

Lovely and spacious Tatte location, but it was VERY crowded and a tad chaotic due to the number of people and busy workers. The line is very long and can be harder to find a seat.

Make sure if you buy food to go that you take utensils because they may not! Ask them also to correct mistakes, you paid for it! The salad was great, sandwich also delicious.

The changes they've been making has been disappointing. I loved their chicken salad sandwich when it came with a nice pile of alfalfa sprouts. They've stopped that and subbed lettuce leaves instead since a couple of years ago and it's just not the same. The portion of tuna in the tuna salad sandwich has declined over time as well. read more

Located in Harvard Square, Tatte Bakery & Cafe seems to be the place where everyone was the day after Labor Day. We made the line and waited quite a bit for both food and to be able to locate a table to sit down. We mainly came here as we were in the area and my companion wanted breakfast-style food. I personally think something else would have been better as it was the afternoon, but given that we were flying back that day, maybe he had a point. Anyway, he had an egg dish and I had some avocado toast. We accompanied this with sparkling water, coffee, and chocolate croissants. Honestly, the croissants were probably the best thing from this meal. They were reminiscent of Parisian croissants, so much so that my companion ordered more to go. The coffee was abysmal, tasting like what I imagine tar to taste like. The avocado toast was edible, but it was nothing out of this world. The eggs, well, I can't say, but my companion didn't complain. It made for a decent brunch at the end of the day, but meh, something was missing--a thought I found myself often having during my time in Boston. read more
