★ 5Tatte Bakery is simply amazing. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the aroma of fresh-baked goods that look as good as they taste. Their croissants are perfectly flaky, buttery, and absolutely delicious, and the coffee is rich, aromatic, and consistently excellent.
What makes it even better is its close proximity to the park — the perfect spot to grab something to go and enjoy a crisp fall day outdoors. Tatte truly delivers on both quality and charm. -

★ 5There are several Tatte Bakeries in Boston. I’ve only been to the one in Beacon Hill. The food options are great. The staff is very friendly and patient even though the bakery can be very crowded at certain times of the day. Seating is limited so if you see an open seat on the way in, grab it. Our last visit was on a sunny pre spring afternoon. We sat outside on the south facing steps of the building that houses the Tatte. It a was perfect place to sip very good cappuccinos and eat well made sandwiches. We got a dose of people and pet watching too. The four stars for atmosphere is only because of the limited seating. But don’t let that stop you from enjoying a good meal in an interesting section of Boston.

★ 5We tried a few of these lovely cafes across Boston. They were always busy and the food choices were always great. Coffee (decaffeinated with oat milk for us) tasted great and had us going back regularly!
We tried cakes - the Brownie disappointed but the others were lovely. We've just finished our turkey and avocado sandwiches on the train to New York and feel abdicated in getting these delicious and fresh feasts before the journey. Lovely chain of cafes. -

★ 5The B.A.L.T and the chicken pita were incredible, one of the best BLTs I’ve had in the city. Drinks, both iced and hot, were also fantastic. Service was okay, it was very busy but one of the staff roller their eyes when we asked for the apple turnover to be warm. We got the apple turnover and it wasn’t warm after asking twice. Even with that the apple turnover was very yummy! Overall had a good time and would come back!

★ 3Gosh, I really really wanted to give them five stars. Instead, here is a very thorough review of why this is not so.
After three tries to produce a hot Cortado, they were all somehow a little bit colder than the first. The pastries are great though!
I came in here last year and really enjoyed the gorgeous pastry offerings. and whimsical holiday pastries and cookies. We lived in the neighborhood for many years, so each year we revisit.
Then I recently visited in October 2025. It was just a few blocks from our house (we were on a home swap, so we had an extended stay, and I was here quite a bit). Each day I would walk down the hill for my morning coffee and pastry here.
Each time I would order a cortado. The first time it was Lukewarm, but by no means warm. So the second time I asked for a “extra hot” and it was even less hot than the first time. And this continued to the point where it was so lukewarm at some point that if it was bathwater I would say it was a little bit chilly. I’m not exaggerating. And every time I said ‘extra hot’ they seem to compensate by not actually producing an extra hot drink, but instead putting in less cream/milk. So at some point, I was just looking at a macchiato. It was lukewarm espresso with just a bit of foam on top. No longer even a Cortado. And still, lukewarm. Why did I keep coming back? Part of me was hopeful that one day they would fix it, and also, the pastries are exquisite! The croissants are some of the best in town. And one day I had a croissant with some cheese and some meat in it and it was sublime! So I love the pastries, and I really want this to be my café when I am in town. But I just need my coffee to be warm. Not scalding, not hot. But at least warm.
