This is the 3rd time I've had really poor service. And unfortunately it's probably the last time…read moreI'll come when the Belmont store is about the same distance from my house. This time it was not busy and only me and another in line. The ONLY person helping customers was chitchatting with a patron that was obviously a friend. No one else bothered to help us, the server didn't even acknowledge us and eventually I left after about 5-6mins of waiting. It's a real shame because I like the offerings. But it's not just about the food.

I really love biking and always pass by Kickstand on my journeys down the minuteman. I knew that I…read morehad to come visit one day just for Kickstand and I finally was able to do it when the crowd died down for the colder months. Unfortunately, I don't think it was worth the hype. I think great concept, but execution wasn't quite there. And maybe I just got unlikely with the item I ordered. I got the breakfast wrap which was an assortment of roasted veggies (think squash, broccoli, eggs) in the wrap. This was certainly unorthodox, but I wasn't opposed to it. I didn't really read much into it so I kind of was expecting a breakfast burrito, but got a pleasant surprise since I do like roasted veggies as well. The problem is that there was not much flavor to it and it left a lot to be desired. I think they could have done a lot more with it. Despite being underwhelmed, I will probably come here again and try something else. I just can't when their spot on the minute man is perfect and they are willing to push the envelope on breakfast wraps. So I'm hoping to up this rating one day!

I love to stop in here when I have an appt at the salon across the street (J&L Hair Salon - great…read moreservice & cut/color!) because I prefer to support local businesses over chains.

A friend roped me into coming here for a well-made espresso. I was intrigued by the merch, the tall…read morewindows, and the staff, which enthusiastically recommended the spicy mocha (cayenne, cinnamon, mocha syrup). After we ordered our drinks, we got a number and the drinks eventually arrived at our table. I have to say, I wanted more. The espresso didn't have much profile to it, and worse, the cocoa wasn't mixed in, so my first few sips were totally not sweet. After stirring it myself, I got the full experience. I've definitely had better spicy mochas, usually sold to me as Mexican hot chocolate - the seasoning shouldn't be gingerly applied; it should really be over the top. We bused our own drinkware, but points for reusable cups. On a Sunday morning, perhaps 7-8 patrons were already there, and the seating was 1/3 taken.

I also tried the Pastitsio which was also incredible. The only downside is that parking can be a problem.

This is just my humble opinion. You can not go wrong going to either establishment. I give credit to all my favorite foodie establishments. Happy pastry shopping!

Lovely Pastry shop in Winchester, with some more offerings…read more This place is one part pastry shop, one part charcuterie shop, one part wine shop and one part European market. It's open and airy. They have seating in the back. The pastries were so good. Looking forward to trying more stuff there. They also have coffee and specialty drinks they make. The cheese and meat area is a separate counter with all your charcuterie needs. The cheeses looked so good. There are meats as well. Beyond that is a little nook of wine and spirits. The front of the store in like a little European market. They have oils and candies and sauces. This place is great for pastry but I would come before hosting a party to get wine, charcuterie and pastry all in one place. Love everything about this place. Service was awesome. Staff so friendly.

I also grabbed a tomato pesto pastry for later and will have to return for the savory scone! Service was friendly and prompt, and the space is classy, French-inspired, and very clean. It's bigger than it looks on the outside and as a foodie I loved looking at all the cheeses, meats, wines, and goods. This is a nice place to pick up a gift and/or snack for a dinner party. They also have a few outdoor bistro tables. It's conveniently located right by the newly accessible Winchester commuter rail in a nice little part of the downtown area. A bit spendy, but I'll be back!

The donut and banana bread were also very tasty but I didn't get to eat enough of them to feel as strongly about them as I do the strawberry tea cake. I think it's assume you can't go wrong with anything you can purchase from Butternut Bakehouse,... Enjoy! The ambiance was full of energy with friendly staff and happy customers. Would definitely recommend.

Adding to the neighborhood feel is their bulletin board of local ads and promotions which really adds to the community feeling of this place. The service was friendly despite being busy and moved very quickly. I would definitely come back here.
