Hearth & Hug Bakery

Oh wow they sure do know how to make bread!! I went Saturday late afternoon there’s no pastries left:( Came back the day after. I had lemon blackberry bun, golfeado and cappuccino. All items were amazing!! ⛳️I’ve never had golfeados before so don’t have much experience with telling if it’s authentic or not. But look how pretty it is!! The dough is dense, soft and gooey. If you like an unconventional seasoned sticky bun, this could be a fun item to try! 🍋Lemon blackberry bun has lemon zest and blackberry jam fillings with icing and lemon zest on top. The jam is slightly sour which balances well with the sweetness. Not sure if they seasoned it with fennel seeds or it’s just anise seeds fell off from the golfeado. But if they did, it’s quite genius!!! ☕️Coffee is great too. I’ve been to so many coffee shops around Boston but their cappuccino tastes significantly different than others. The beans have a distinguished fruity flavor you won’t miss!

The bakery items are delicious. The coffee could be improved. It is weak tasting and barely warm and needs improvement. The 5 stars are for the baked goods and lovely staff. Please fix the coffee and you will be perfect. Their menu board is down because they realized after a few days they need to streamline and revamp the menu so sadly they will be reducing their offerings.

Love this place, how sunny and warm it feels inside! Tried their stuffed sofritos - loved the flavor of the sofrito, steak was tender and toppings were fresh - could’ve used a bit more salt. The dream cookie was also delish, have to try the others!!

Tried out this new bakery in Davis Square yesterday. There was already a long line waiting for the doors to open at 8 am. A whole lot of eager customers waited eagerly for their turn - our turn took 30 minutes of patient waiting to reach the door. Very delicious offerings!! Slightly on the pricey side for the baked offerings and for the coffee. Lots of street parking around. Since we had our dog with us, one of us had to stay outside while the other shopped. Quite a few of the customers waiting in line had brought along their dogs. One recommendation, have a doggie harness station outside on the footpath - kinda like one sees in old western movies for horseradish. Wish you all the very best!!

Very cute place for pastries! I grabbed a ginger cranberry scone. The cranberries migrated to one side (not good), but the ginger was very sharp (good!) I’d love to try other things! Very good prices for the size and taste

Off to a good start! We bought the chocolate croissant, lemon blackberry loaf, and ginger-orange scone. Scone was American style, buttery and very flavorful. Lamination on the pastries was great. They were a touch over-baked and thus dry. Large, buttery, puffy croissants. The coffee is locally roasted and good quality. Was brewed right when I had it, I look forward to trying their espresso bar. The hot chocolate was bad, unfortunately, the oat milk had cooked & became jellylike. The ratio could be tweaked, it felt like a mocha with the espresso removed rather than its own flavorful menu item. Atmosphere is cute and becoming comfortable with time. However, the feng shui is off: when you check out, there’s no clear path to move out of line & settle in, which was uncomfortable. The super-vintage furniture and decor is cute and I imagine will all pull together with the more modern appliances as Hearth & Hug settles in.

A solid bakery/cafe in the Davis square area. There is not a ton of seating inside and parking is limited to permitted street parking. Luckily it is very accessible via bike path, minutes away from the Davis sq T stop, and a bus top for the 88 and 90 buses right outside.

So yummy! Got the smoked salmon tea sandwich and the white miso coconut cookie. Sandwich was $14, very tasty, and came with a generous size of the most delicious french fries on the side!! The cookie was amazing too, savory and sweet!!

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!
