We happened to get a freshly baked one which was fluffy and melt in your mouth delicious! Also, it must be said that their service is A+. Their staff are truly such kind folks - always smiling and making friendly conversation with their customers. Turns out they were testing a new dough for the Shio Bread so they even gave us one on the house to try. The kind gesture was very sweet and much appreciated!

I've been drooling over the passion fruit krembo and the pear tart so I had to give them a try as well. Pear tart- absolutely perfect, so mellow and sweet and I loved the poached pear in the middle! Passionfruit krembo- honestly stronger on the coconut and meringue flavor than on the passion fruit? Tastes almost like a lemon meringue tart to me. Orange blossom latte- frankly didn't get any flavor of orange blossom in the latte, until it melted totally I could taste it a little in the coffee. The vanilla was also really light. It's a pretty unadulterated coffee (as is typical for a cold brew) and I kinda like my coffee sweet and creamy, so I was not too impressed on a first taste. But once it melted I liked it a lot more. Probably will stick with black sesame next time. Note- they serve their pastries glued with sugar (?) on a cardboard round. Im not too sure how to eat it like this so I ended up prying them off the round.

Always love Tatte! I mean, what's not to love they have incredible coffee, tease, bakery items, and…read moreso many great dishes. Walking into a Tatte is like warm hug, it's a positive, welcoming, and bright environment to be in. All of the cafes are so aesthetically pleasing and get a lot of natural light. This location does have some indoor seating, but is a bit more limited than some of the other locations. They do have a lot of outdoor seating though. It's also a great area to walk around if you get your coffee and or pastry to go. It of course gets busy at peak times on weekends and morning during the week. Brunch is big at Tatte, and rightfully so. I don't think it's the best place to try to work, but you can bring a computer in do some work or study, but it can also get loud when there's lots of conversations being held. I've had great interactions with the staff at this location and even when it's busy, I haven't had to wait too long to get my order. I've been loving the pumpkin spice tahini latte this fall. Looking forward to my next stop in!

The Boston Chip Yard in Faneuil Hall has been a timeless gem since 1977, and it continues to win the hearts of Boston locals and tourists alike. Their old-fashioned cookies are nothing short of delightful, embodying a melt-in-your-mouth quality that's truly special. Crafted from a traditional recipe, each batch is made from scratch using wholesome ingredients and, undoubtedly, a generous dose of love. For me, the banana chocolate chip cookies are the standout stars. I can't resist them, and a visit to the Boston Chip Yard is never complete without indulging in at least six of these small but mighty treats. They're a perfect blend of flavors that make every bite an unforgettable experience. However, I must dock one star due to inconsistent service. While the cookies are consistently outstanding, the same cannot always be said for the staff. It's a bit hit or miss when it comes to friendliness, which can sometimes detract from the overall experience. In summary, the Boston Chip Yard in Faneuil Hall is a cherished institution offering delectable, homemade cookies that have stood the test of time. Whether you're a local or a visitor, don't miss the chance to savor these nostalgic treats in the heart of Boston's Quincy Market located under the North Canopy. read more
