Hearth & Hug Bakery

Breads and sweet treats. Sampled a brownie…can’t have just one! The bakery does not skimp on the chocolate. Very fresh.

Visited Boston Public Market as soon as they opened yesterday and immediately purchased a cheddar and onion scone from Hearth & Hug! All their pastries looked delicious but I wanted something savory and my scone was very tasty! ☺️

The butter croissant is the best I’ve ever had, period. The ham and cheese croissant, blueberry muffins, and scones are also some of my favorites. You can’t go wrong with anything here and I’m always surprised the line isn’t around the corner every time I show up! Do yourself a favor and check it out!

These are the best baked goods that I've had in a long time. I ate all of them too quickly to take photos, but I'm looking forward to getting back there soon! I was helped by Natalie, the owner, and she was truly delightful. She took the time to answer all my questions about the pastries and we chatted about the bakery itself as well. Here's what I bought: Canele: a small French pastry that was semi-caramelized on the outside and soft custard/cake interior. Insanely delicious. Dream cookie: chocolate, marshmallows, cornflakes. Some caramelized lace had baked around the edge and OMG just so so good. M&M cookie: as an M&M cookie lover, this is the best one I've ever had. The M&Ms are throughout the dough almost at like a 50-50 ratio. Exterior was crispy, interior was soft and chocolatey. I need 100 more.

In a word- resplendent! The ham & cheese croissant is perfection! Light, buttery, soft yet crispy croissant with ham & cheese inside. The top is sprinkled with an everything bagel spice. I’m out of words, it’s perfect!

got the canelé and sea salt pretzel. their canelé was absolute perfection with the crunchy first bite and the delightfully soft inside. the pretzel was yummy as well, with such depth to the pretzel flavor. can’t wait to try everything else they have!

Great place to grab an early morning breakfast or a late afternoon/night snack. Try the ham and cheese croissant! The everything bagel seasoning on top really drives the entire thing home.

My wife had the Golfeado for breakfast. It is a Venezuelan pastry from what I understand. It was quite good. The lady at the counter was polite and helpful.

There's another new bakery in town! Hearth and Hug opened Sep 2023 and occupies a stall toward the rear of Boston Public Market. Everything looked tempting and I ordered the ham and cheese croissant, which was huge and covered with an everything bagel spice mix (salt, poppy seeds, garlic). The outer crust golden brown and crispy, and the interior had that flaky butteriness that all croissant lovers crave. The ham was thinly sliced, the cheese had a moderately robust Gruyère like flavor. My only complaint was that the everything but the bagel seasoning overpowered the subtle croissant flavors--I'd recommend to the baker to offer an option without those spices. I look forward to ripping into their chocolate croissant next time!

Amazing baked goods, the pretzels and sourdough bread are our favorites. The selection varies every week. The owner and baker loves to be creative and is so willing to answer any questions about ingredients of any product. She loves bringing us her fresh ideas. Get there early- my favs sell out by midday.

Hearth & Hug is a wonderful bakery that just opened up! I work nearby and have tried a few menu items and everything is delicious. Items rotate during the week and with seasonal ingredients and flavors. Some ingredients are sourced from other vendors in the Boston Public Market which I think is incredible! My favorite so far is the ham and cheese croissant, it has a nice flakiness, the ham and cheese are great quality, and I love the everything seasoning on top. If I ever see them in stock I grab one since they go quickly in the mornings! I also tried a blondie with an orange jelly/ marmalade (can't remember exactly but it was delicious!) The blondie was so rich and the orange added such a nice texture and brightness to the treat. I look forward to my next blondie and to see what fun ingredients are in it next! Their pretzels are also delicious! I had one with the everything seasoning and it adds such a nice touch to pretzel. They also have the option to add mustard! Lastly, I also tried a chocolate chip cookie. The cookie has a crispy edge with a very buttery, delicious center. The chocolate inside was super rich but it wasn't too overpowering. The cookie was super balanced and such a classic treat. The owner Natalie is absolutely wonderful. She is so nice and I enjoy chatting with her every time I'm there. I always look forward to trying new or returning favorites of mine and I can't wait to continue seeing this bakery thrive!
