    The Popover Lady makes good popovers which in turn make very good breakfast sandwiches! I was looking for something hearty and filling and this definitely fit the bill. The popover was light and fluffy which paired very well with the weightier egg, cheese, and sausage. I visited on the weekend and they were busy, put the sandwich was ready pretty quickly and served nice and hot.

    Stumbled across the Boston Public Market and wandered through to find this gem. I'm from NYC and grew up going to a restaurant that specialized in popovers. It's been over 20 years but these popovers instantly took me back to the great memories of my childhood. I ordered the mixed mini set which was conveniently packaged and made it home on my flight today. I also ordered an Asiago popover which was warmed up as I waited. It was light, buttery, with a hint of cheese. I wish I lived closer so I could enjoy them again. The vibrant atmosphere of the market was fast pace but still felt cozy.

    Solid popover sandwich. I ordered the bacon, egg and white cheddar cheese on an everything popover. It was ready in about 5 minutes and it was delicious! My only complaint is that the cheese could've been a little more melty, but it was a fantastic way to start the day.

    Always a good thing when you get some cinnamon sugar popovers from the Popover lady at the BPM! Soft fluffy, buttery and sugary treats! Service is always fast and friendly. Great display of baked goods - very warm and inviting! Highly recommend :)

    Asiago cheese popover

    All I can say is that I didn't know that I needed an asiago cheese popover when I woke up on Sautrday morning. By the time I got to the Boston Public Market and saw the plump dough-y popovers, it was love at first sight. The asiago cheese definitely came through, but didn't overpower the delicateness of the pastry. Two pats of butter were the perfect amount to accompany every airy and light morsel. I loved it from end to end and am thankful that the Popover Lady exists!

    The popovers are amazing! I didn't know I liked popovers this much until I tried one. I went to visit the stall after having a bagel and was thinking I was just going to get another carb item. Boy was I wrong! These things are so different than a regular bagel and I regretted not getting these instead. They're so fluffy, crispy on the outside, warm and soft on the inside and somehow has so much airy texture in between. It has an eggy flavor so something between bread and pastry. The popover lady heats it up right there for you (or it could be freshly made) and it is so warm and soft. It's $4 for a regular sized popover and I got the Asiago cheese flavor with nothing in it. It was already packed with flavor from the cheese, no cream cheese or filling needed. It's so good we went right back to get more to take home. Next time, we will have to get the sandwich version to see what those taste like.

    Saw a sign that stated "The Popover Lady" located inside the Boston Public Market, directly outside of Haymarket and next to the Haymarket Orange Line MBTA Station. Really friendly lady and gentleman who helped us. We bought 3 popovers, Onion, Plain, and Asiago Cheese. Very delicious, fluffy, not dry and delicious.

    Full transparency I've never had a popover before but this place changed my mind. It was made upon ordering so it came out so warm and fresh. The batter was soft and everything goes well together. This place is located in Boston Market and opens early so I'd love to pop in for a quick breakfast and coffee. Overall, would recommend!

    Best breakfast sandwich in downtown! Located right in haymarket you can get any popover you want with your breakfast sandwich as well. I've had both the onion and everything popover and they were great. The popover lady is super friendly and makes you whatever you want how you like it. Definitely check this place out for a quick bite on your way to work or for lunch.

    Regular Popover

    I needed to eat something savory to recover from the box of overly cloying baked goods at Mike's Pastry down the street. Just to settle my stomach. A popover was just the ticket. I picked a regular one. Warm and smeared with butter, it was light and crispy on the outside and so soft on the inside. I also tried the Asiago and the Onion. All three were really good. I finally got the popover I'd been wanting since I arrived on the east coast.

    Popover Egg, Cheese, Bacon Sandwich

    I will say breakfast has never been my favorite meal of this day but a bacon, egg, and cheese Popover what the winner for best food we had at the Boston Public Market. Sorry to the French but these popovers are much better then any croissant I have ever had. The other nice thing about the Popover Lady is that the cheese they you is so creamy and has so much flavor. Also check out the pictures but they really load up on the bacon too. Nothing is more frustrating then a breakfast sandwich lacking in the bacon. For a amazing breakfast/brunch or even lunch sandwich this is the place to go and the winner of our trip to Boston Public Market.

    The Popover Lady is located in the corner of the Boston Public Market next to Crescent Ridge and across from Mother Juice. It's a small stall front with a few different popover options. I got the asiago popover and turned it into a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich that I got toasted. The worker asked me if I wanted any salt, pepper, or hot sauce and I only opted for salt and regretted it later. The popover is super light, fluffy, and airy with a slight crisp from the toasting. The service was quick and my popover sandwich was wrapped nicely in foil. Overall, something different to try and a little bit lighter than a bagel sandwich.

    Blueberry dutch baby pancake (with butter and syrup on the side) - $5
    Constance L.

    Great service and tasty product! Detailed breakdown below: **Service, 5/5** I got mine to eat in person at BPM, so my pancake was heated up and served in a little tray. She asked if I wanted any toppings on the side, and I requested syrup and butter. I got everything with a fork, knife, and napkin, so it was a perfect package all ready to eat -- super convenient! **Decor and cleanliness, 5/5** This stall is located in BPM, which is very cute and well maintained. The stall itself and the displays were also super clean, and the woman helping me was wearing a mask and prepared everything with gloves. **Presentation of the food, 5/5** After heating up my blueberry dutch baby pancake ($5), she dusted it with sugar and served it to me with all my requested condiments. The pancake itself is very cute and they're really generous with the blueberries. **Price and portion, 5/5** I thought this was the perfect size for a snack, but not enough for a breakfast. $5 is a bit high for what I would usually spend, but I totally understand because rent in BPM is probably high plus small business owners need more support right now. **Taste of the food, 4/5** Like any pancake, it was a bit bland without the syrup, so I'm glad I was able to get that on the side. It's also my first dutch baby pancake, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I think I would've liked either more fluffiness and more toasted edges/bottom for some crunch and to mix up the textures a bit. Still SUPER good though and a perfect start to my day :)

    I came to tatte for the black sesame latte but was seduced by the orange blossom latte and had to…read moregive it a shot. 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.

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!

Whether you're grabbing coffee, meeting friends for lunch, having dinner and cocktails, or just looking for a fun place to spend a few hours, there really is something for everyone.

There are events on the lawn in the summer, such as movie night and flea markets. Would recommend more for ambience and location than the food.
