- Cozy atmosphere to read a book, get a delicious bite or work off free wifi! Love this place but I always leave with a fried smell that lasts the day.
get the chamato sandwich with curry dipping sauce instead of ranch. so yum.
The only place to casually chill, have a cup of coffee, and read that's open past 9:00 PM.
Get the vegetarian momos. Half & Half. You won't be disappointed!
one of the few places on newbury st. open till midnight--take advantage of it! great breakfast food all day, too. free wi-fi, fast service, great atmosphere.
First come first serve seating at the bar. Stay for hours, study for hours, eat for hours, and use the wi-fi hours. Closes at midnight too!
Franklin KnottsOctober 20, 2011Great place for breakfast & Lunch, free Wi-Fi and books make living in Back Bay better !
My second favorite huevos rancheros is the city. Get a black coffee as well.
Taylor DobbsJune 9, 2013Their new iPhone based seating system makes the host seem rude and disconnected. I got cut in line and he just let it fly; ended up in the worst seats in the place. Good food and great books though.
FahadOctober 4, 2014Not bad .. The concept is nice. The food is average. I tried the egg Benedict and pancakes .. Staff were very friendly. I would give it 6.5 out of 10
Anne McCarthyAugust 10, 2010Best sweet potato fries I've found in Boston. Also very helpful staff to help you find whatever book you're looking for.
There are few things more awesome than writing a book at a bookstore. Indie vibe with a cafe.
Cesar FonsecaMarch 25, 2016Portabella Quesadilla was very filling, flavor was good, but not great. 4/5 The salsa was good though, lather that baby up.
Jade AndersonMarch 24, 2012Get the white hot chocolate and the lemon ricotta french toast, it's delicious!!
Great atmosphere, good breakfast, awesome sweet potato fries and dessert (try the delicious waffle supreme sundae!)
Try the open-faced avocado & havarti dill sandwich. The Trident fries dominate regular fries.
Sandy WhittingtonSeptember 27, 2014Cool stuff (especially the postcards and journals) but the staff wasn't helpful and they all had attitude issues.
Kim LNovember 3, 2010Cape Codder is one of the best sandwiches around. Hearty and they don't skimp on the (super crisp!) bacon.- Best breakfast dish: brie & apple omelette; best dinner dish: pumpkin ravioli
Gail TermanMay 15, 2010Treat yourself to the deluxe grilled cheese with fries on the side. Finish with a slice of carrot cake. And flirt with the wait staff.
Stephanie OrmeMarch 31, 2019Near place, but avoid on weekends. Between people browsing for books and the constant flow of wait staff serving food, there's no room to move about.
Thryll.comJanuary 12, 2012Oh the delicious white hot chocolate with whipped cream of course. And, free wifi thanks!

Jenn ZFebruary 1, 2012Try the ricotta-stuffed French toast - it's quite possibly the best thing I have ever eaten!
Taylor NessMarch 29, 2013Would not recommend going on a Friday morning. Short on wait staff and a really busy restaurant ends up being an extra long meal. Normally quiet and quick.
Olivia DiNucciFebruary 12, 2012Wheatgrass, sweet potato pancakes, and apple and Brie omelette are great !
Liyah SAugust 17, 2010Great place to relax, get some food, and pick a good book to read. Great selection of herbal teas too.
it's always nice when you find a place that will serve you breakfast food at 7pm

"Try the spicy chix with lox substituted for the chicken. DELICIOUS. Though the spicy chix is also great on its own."
