Man, I really wish NYC had a Tatte. I also wish we had more time in Boston just so I could try some of the other options on the breakfast/lunch menu. Let's just say I had a really hard time narrowing down what I wanted to get.
Bread here is absolutely stellar so I'd recommend trying a sandwich. On our first trip, we went with the tuna and the chicken salad options, both amazing. The tuna came on this toasted challah bread that I loved for not tearing the roof of my mouth bloody. I also liked how they didn't skimp on the fillings and packed the sandwiches while still making it relatively tidy to eat. My favorite was the chicken salad - it wasn't too mayo-heavy, the sourdough held together well, and the flavors were simple but fresh and delicious.
On our second time, I went with the green and nutty salad, which was exactly what I needed after a few days of too many cookies and fried goodness. Also came with the tastiest bun, which was super flaky and light. Like a fresh, much, much better version of the type that airplanes hand out in a cellophane bag.
We also tried some of the desserts - the crumbs cheesecake and the espresso chocolate mousse. A little on the sweeter side for my preference but given the smaller size, we had no problem finishing. I ended up buying the mixed nut tart to gift to my parents.
Really bright and welcoming inside. During peak morning and lunch hours, the seating definitely fills up from the overflow of Newbury and the Berklee school, but from the two times we went, we didn't have any issues grabbing seats. Looks like a great place to read, catch up with friends, or get some work done.
