REVIEWS OF Sofra Bakery & Cafe IN Massachusetts

Noa Alon

Great spot with delicious Mediterranean food. The pastries are excellent, also the falafel. Note that the humus plates are served with a small bun instead of a pita, so i would recommend ordering any other dish. But that's just me, as I'm used to Israeli humus and pitas:)

Kristen Grant

Made the trip over from a few cities and it was worth it! Love the Turkish Breakfast, so different, having some new options is always nice in the area. The Turkish coffee was great. There are many more menu items I will be trying. Very clean, well priced and busy busy. Little gem if you find the time to go. The only thing I would change is to make this place bigger (:

Rory O'Connor

A local spot by the great chef Anna Sortun. Mostly take out, but has a small eat in, family style area. Exquisite food, exquisitely prepared. Be prepared for long lines (always a good sign) and tight seating. Summers, there are some outside seats, but don't bet on them.

cruzzer52

Friendly local unique restaurant.

J Hoffman

Food is alright. I love the tea here, but it's insanely crowded most of the time and overpriced.

Laurie Brunner

I love everything I've ever eaten here.

Nicolas Joly

Really good , healthy food.

Pamela Hallett

Well I hadn't been for several years. There is a great glass wall between the wine shop and the cafe which opens up the space nicely. The food is still fabulous especially the babaganoush! The servers are delightfully pleasant. It was crowded but due to the newer tables and chairs we got a table within a few minutes. Wonderful place still.

Ric Wheeler

Always excellent, tiny space with great food.

micah eifrid

Whenever I come to Boston, I always make sure I stop here to get a taste of their current pastries. The Shakshuka is amazing and full of wonderful flavors. The only downside, I wish they wouldn't serve the bread in the Shakshuka as it gets too soggy before I can enjoy it. The Turkish Breakfast is a hit too. The yogurt is good quality and delicious by itself or with their spoon sweets. So glad I own their cookbook.

Vio U

Great food! Often very busy

Hector Tarrido

Wao. Bueno. Bonito. Barato. What a great place to have an amazing meal at a great price point. Make sure to come here if you are ever in Boston. Worth the commute

lati

Meze platter was pretty good.

Escaver

They misplaced my order but the service is great and refunded my money. Great customer service!

Momoko Shimizu

The best food around! I love this place and recommended to friends numerous times! Minus one star because of the small portion, otherwise the good place to get a snack for take-away or eat (quickly) inside.

Prabitha Natarajan

Our most favorite and least expensive mediterranean place ever

Elizabeth Whiting

This Turkish bakery frequently has a line out the door, and for good reason! Their baked goods are delicious and the breakfast is delectable. I love the cheese borek and Sofra has the BEST chai that I've ever tasted. The line moves quickly and they've been known to give out samples of the Persian donut as a thank you for waiting on the weekends.

Jose Jimenez

Amazing food. Love coming her for breakfast, lunch or a snack. Everything is delicious!

Dhaval Kumar

Really i love this place. Food taste is awesome and the most important thing i like is the decoration on plate they serve. Must try once bcoz i know if you will go once you will go again and again

İlyas Sır

We ordered Sahlep with big hopes however the sahlep served had nothing similar with the real sahlep we know from Turkey. Other products may be OK but I would not go for Sahlep again. Btw the customer relations are great.

Christine Avramopoulos

My first stop when visiting my hometown of Watertown!

Ellen Lee

I've been going to this place for years and I love it! The food is always so good. The menu doesn't change very much but the quality of the food it's always the best. The cuisine is more Mediterranean or Turkish Style. They have a mezze platter where you can choose five different sides and my husband and I are always get this. The sides change once in awhile but they're always really good. They also have a really good shakshuka here. It comes out piping-hot and you can get some bread and dip it in. It is really delicious! Also, I think that their coffee is amazing and it really reminds me of real Turkish coffee. I also enjoyed having the coffee with their yogurt parfait. The yogurt here is technically labne, which is similar to a thick Greek yogurt. I personally really enjoy it. They serve the yogurt with grano and a fruit puree. I always get this when I go here. The pastries are very good as well. They run out quick so better to get there early so you can choose what you like. I think a Saturday or Sunday brunch here is perfect. It's just so cozy and relaxing. I definitely recommend going to Sofras at least once! I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Ethan Paige

Always amazing and inspiring. Come early for brunch or late for lunch. Delicious prepared foods conveniently packaged for takeaway. Terrific variety of spices and ingredients you'll find you must add to your pantry. I have loved everything I've tried here.

Bob Adams

Yummy. The place was packed but we got parking and seat at the window. Enjoy.

Michael Kellar

Quite possible the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had in my life. Also a great selection of pastries and other food. Go early, it gets packed.

William Tang

The quality of the food is not as good as before.

Marci Kahler

Absolutely love this place! When I decided to take a trip back home to visit family, this was put on my itinerary!

Karen Jungjohann

Scrumptious breakfast sandwich and pastries!

StViers

Great food, with a wide variety of twists on classic bakery items.

Marie Pruessmann

A location full of spicy spirit. The people are incredibly friendly. A place where you can talk easily with other guests. Just a wonderful place!

Theresa Rimini Donohue

Love the food, however it is a small place and typically full.

Jay Miranda

Wonderfully flavorful dishes. Highly recommend the spinach falafel. The staff is extremely helpful in describing dishes we were unfamiliar with and made some great recommendations (thanks Claire and Maggie!) The sweets are fantastic as well. Recommendations: Earthquake cookie and the Sesame Cashew Caramel. The pumpkin jam latte is a lovely seasonal drink, and the karma cold brew is a staple. Will definitely be returning to test out the rest of the menu.

Alison Wong

Super cozy place! Beware that on a Friday morning at 8am, there's already a line forming outside waiting for the bakery to open. They make the classic pastries with a twist. They are pleasantly unique and the flavours taste REALLY good. I would definitely recommend this place and go back. But beware of timing - waiting in line and waiting for your food. (They accept credit cards here). 1) Morning Bun: probably the best I've tried. Fluffy and light. It's like monkey bread but tastes like a cinnamon bun. The outside is perfectly caramelized like a kouign-amann (but not as hard). The orange-frosting (with real orange peels) is the cherry-on-top. Not too sweet and not too overwhelming. Would definitely get it again. It's perfect when it's warmed up. 2) Olive Oil Cake: REALLY good. Super moist and flavorful. The fruits were nice but the blackberries were a little bitter. Would definitely get it again. 3) Lemon Tart: strong lemon flavour with a buttery melt-in-your-mouth crust. Simply made but excellent. 4) Earthquake Chocolate Cookie: DELICIOUS! it's fudgy like a dark chocolate brownie and the white powder compliments the chocolate. Would definitely get it again.

Hannah

Wow what a treasure! Great service and the yummies. Walked 5 miles to get here and already can’t wait to come back!

William K

Absolutely loved this place! Fantastic flavors and so many stuff to choose from! Their breakfast plate thing is very tasty. It gets crowded though, and theres no table service, just first come first serve tables so be prepared. Also if you get any pastries for takeaway, make sure you put it in a toaster oven for the extra crispness.

Jacob Means

Amazing food, small space because it so amazing and it's always full. Pastries are delicious, breakfast and lunch are great and the menu changes occasionally which is really nice. The coffee and lemonade drinks are delicious as well. Can't say enough good things about this place!

Don Perrault

This is one of my favorite cafes, I come here often. There are so many tasty dishes: flat breads, mezzos, soups , desserts, and drinks. Along with an entire wall filled with high quality herbs, spices and condiments from the Middle East. I go on weekends because it is crowded. I always end up striking up an interesting conversation with someone next to me.

Jenny Nehir

Delicious and beautiful food. The portions are small though. Come for a snack or treat. Not a place to go when you are hungry. The chef does really know how to use textures and flavors to create a very special food experience.

Harrison Muskat

Food is good - portions are pretty small for the price. The issue I have with Sofra is that it is almost always impossibly crowded. There's not enough seating or space for customers so if you aren't prepared to get takeaway you may be disappointed.

Kaitlyn Switalski

My favorite local place! Get there early to avoid a line.

Manar Shahwan

Tried breakfast here. Absolutely tasteless.. I ordered the shakshuka and we tried the egg sandwich, honestly seven 11 makes tastier sandwiches.

sarah richards

I love Sofra! I sometimes stop in here for brunch or lunch on Saturdays after taking my dog to the dog park because they have a dog-friendly outdoor seating area. I haven't ever had food here that I didn't like, but my favorite is definitely the falafel. The only downside is that it can get pretty busy, which may mean that you'll wait in line for a bit or that it will be crowded inside.

Christine Callahan

Insanely delicious food, also insanely busy at all hours of the day. Be prepared to wait in line.

Dragos Velicanu

Very tasty food. Love the spinach falafel wrap.

Olivia Miller

Just a little pricey for the portions

Pizzles Tech Time

Bomb food! Great service! Must try!

Emily Siu

Me: "I don't really like mediterranean food." Friends: "But you haven't been to Sofra." -Takes me to Sofra- Me: "I don't love mediterranean food, but Sofra is f*king amazing."

mehmet kaplan

Great place and food but really hard to find a seat especially on the weekends.

Joelle Wazen

Cute tiny middle eastern bakery. Can get crazy packed on weekends. So a pick-up was our only option. The food looked absolutely delicious. They were offering Persian spice donut bites which were awesome. We ordered sujuk pancakes which definitely offered a new experience to our taste buds but felt a bit too much on mine. Great thyme pie and egg halloumi sandwich which was on the smaller side. Their chocolate croissant was also delicious. I will surely go back on a less busy day because of all the tempting items they offer. I would recommend sharing, though, to maximize one's experience. Some items may end up being less enjoyable than others. But they're worth the adventure.

Renee of Digital Evolution Marketing

Cute little cafe and bakery. Nice menu selection of food, coffee and sweets at fair prices. Definitely give this place a try! Support #SmallBusiness

Tim Harry

Good Turkish coffee. Pastries are kinda pricy, spanikopita wasn't that great

A S

Another favorite local cafe! It's right across the street from Mount Auburn Cemetery. Which means it's a lovely place to come rest your feet, grab a coffee, especially after spending a delightful afternoon admiring the beautiful cemetery grounds. I've tried a couple of food items here but wasn't too impressed. They were lacking flavor and portions were on the smaller side. But they definitely make up for it in their coffee and baked goods! Every time I come here, the array of baked goods is different. And each one looks so appealing. And they're not your standard bakery pastries either. There's a Middle Eastern influence which you can see and notice in the flavors. The Sfeng (?) which is similar to a glazed donut, and the Persian donut, slightly drier version of a donut, are really tasty. They also make a lot of specialty coffee drinks. And they're house-made, yay! No fake syrups, only real jams, haha. During Fall, they have a pumpkin jam latte which is yummy. Other points to note: You order at the counter, get a number and they bring your food/coffee to you. Space is tight. It's a tiny cafe, so if you're visiting, be mindful that others might like a seat too especially during the weekends. There are a few parking spaces for customers behind the cafe.

Benjamin Taylor

Everything on the menu is good. I always get the orange blossom pastry

Atharva Chouthai

Awesome food...! Chicken shawarma was the best!!!

UNPOCO JAIME

Get the shishkabab

Tara Tai

Sofra is one of those beautiful Boston/Cambridge gems that make me think New England can be as wonderful a food destination as New York City. Serving up lovely Turkish/Lebanese/Mediterranean fare to crowded yuppie brunch crowds in West Cambridge, come here ready to have your taste buds blown apart. 1 star- ambiance. Despite the crowded interior, it's decorated charmingly with lots of enticing cookbooks, spices and oils, and ready-made foods and desserts for you to gander at while you wait your turn in line. 1 star- service. Nothing to complain about; despite crowds, the line moves decently quickly and the food comes out as fast as to be expected. 0.5 star- value. Their entrees run $8-14 for brunch/lunch and aren't massive but a fair amount of food. 1 star- taste. I don't think I've ever had a bad bite at Sofra (or at Sarma or Oleana to be honest). Everything is fresh, exciting, with amazing texture and flavor combinations. This latest visit, the twice baked strawberry pistachio croissant tasted even better than it looked (and it looks incredible) -- with flaky, crusty croissant, slightly sweet strawberries, and incredibly green and crunchy pistachios. 1.5 stars- innovation. Sofra just kills it with the interesting menu items. The brown butter donut made me feel like I was going to both heaven and hell, at the same time -- so sinful, so delicious. The sausage pita was spicy and tangy and salty, with great flavor coming through from the olives and feta butter. Protip: come here early and if you can, run or bike here so you can really earn that dessert!

Alisha G

I’ve been going to Sofra since I was very little and it has been a joy to visit their friendly, helpful staff and cozy environment. The food here though is fine but not great and they are often changing items on their menu.

Francis Nviri

Desserts treats that are not your ordinary kind. Definitely a sweet experience for anyone that hasn't had them before.

Emily Seaver

Great pastries, breakfast and lunch, options for veg/vegan

Urvashi Biswal

I have been here twice and during the not so rush hours. Loved the shawarmas. Good seasoning in the lamb and chicken And not overpowering. But my favorite was the falafel and the beet tzatziki that comes with it. I also love the interiors of this cute little place. since I went at less busy times, got ample space to sit and have food. Bakery goods looked good too. Gonna try next time!

Catherine Cohen

Favorite cafe for drinks and a perfectly sized lunch. Can get busy but it's worth the wait! The new basil lemonade is out of this world and so is the fava bean pate. Very interesting style of pita, unexpected and still tasty.

Asherah Ravish

Had an egg poached with asparagus and yogurt. Absolutely delicious. Pastries good too, and I thought the place was cute. Only complaint is that my portion was very small for the price.

Sergio Nieto

Nice and cozy place with great food. The shakshouka and the poached egg were great, and we also had some good sweet treats. Place is small and there are no reservations though.

Elizabeth Hill

I hate to give this place more positive press: it is already too well loved. Dont go here for an intimate conversation while you nosh on the orange blossom morning buns and spinach falafel and nurse your newly concocted favorite beverage. All it needs is elbow room.

Jo Sourbron

Lovely place with super Good food and Nice people! Huge fan!!!

Mohammed Almaadid

Great food

Rohit Gawli

Loved their baked goods and spinach falafel. The Dragon Iced Tea is simply mind-blowing (Must Try!). Although the Shakshuka was pretty average (again, it's just my opinion, you might find it otherwise). Will visit again and agian! Quaint place but warm ambiance! Loved it.

Eugenia Valerie Clifford

Amazing middle eastern food, baked goods and coffee! Great folk who work there, friendly and welcoming! It is quite small, not much room to sit when it's busy, but it is cozy. I avoid going there at lunch time (weekend especially) because the line is out the door!

Kar Z

Service delightful, foods perfectly prepared!!

Megan Kinneen

Sofra made me regret moving out of Watertown. I've never had a better Chai and their pastries are perfection.

Cici

Love the atmosphere and vibe here. This is one of my favorites. Their Turkish coffee is a must try, unsweetened is my to go. Variety of bakery items. 80% of my visit, waiting in line. Small place but warm environment :) Definitely be back. Thank you!

Nick Dubrule

The most unusual, delicious and amazing Middle Eastern food, served canteen-style in a small place, always packed with people.

Kristen Dority

Everything here is just so good. My go to place if I need a little pick me up. Perfect coffee. Love their pita bread.

Marina Chernoloz

This place looks really cute and nice from outside and I always wanted to come and try something. So I was watching reviews and pictures of other people and i thought that this soup looks really tasty but when I tried it I couldn’t even eat it till the end. The taste was definitely not mine and actually my friend didn’t like the taste too.

Margot Hampe

Amazing place! Try the Turkish breakfast! Every item is one of a kind here!

Scarleth Largaespada

Definitely distinct taste. Their food is great.

Peter Salem

Red lentil durum and the carrot soup were both very satisfying, great Mediterranean selection

Maggie Gaar

Everything is amazing. Been coming here for years and have never regretted any food or drink choices. Their chai is the BEST.

Wenceslao Plazas

Delicious middle Orient food. 100% recommend

Lisa Rechisky

Fantastic food. Crowded but worth the wait. The red dragon drink was amazing.

Mai Le

Small, friendly restaurant that produces good comfort ethnic food. Love the take out fridge that's filled with yummy sides. Highly recommend.

Arthur Meadowcroft

The spices are amazing. Every dish is unique and the blended spice mixes only add to the adventure of getting a sampling of a bunch of different flavors that all taste amazing. Plus, the cozy room with the mash-up of chairs and the hot drinks they serve make it a great place to feel come table in winter.

Shai Plonski

Simply one of the most special places to eat in Boston... The flavors and variety of savory, sweet and drinks are out of this world

Maria Polyanskaya

Delicious fresh breakfast and pastries

Hasan Aygun

Good tastes with cakes, spinach gözleme and delicious meze. Staff was very nice and prices are not excessive. Parking os linited, but ot is not difficult to find street parking spots. The only problem or disappointment was the drinks, mainly Turkish tea and coffee. These drinks are sacrosankt in Turkey and Greece or eastern Mediterranean as they have to be prepared and served in a distinct fashion. The tea comes out of a thermos and when brewed tea waits too long it turns into a tepid tar. The way the coffee was served would be a shock to all the coffee lovers from Lebanon to Serbia. Even espresso was served in a Turkish tea cup. With that solved, Sofra would easily merit 5 starts.

David Escott

Always delicious. Always great service.

Sami Alajaji

Good, tasty, and anthentic Mediterranean food that you won't find easily around towns. Two things are preventing it from getting 5 stars: portions are small for the asked price, and the space is so tiny and crammed that takeout is more often than not your best option.

Mike Burger

I stop and get a lamb shawarma every time I'm driving by

Diego Hammerschlag

Unique pastries and products. Great service. Great quality.

Tirzah Marie

Our favorite cafe in Cambridge! I can't say enough good things about Sofra - we highly recommend. The only downside is the limited seating. My absolute favorite dish is the beet tzatziki, although I've never had a bad dish here. The labneh Sofra uses is on point!

Ana Ciarlo

I will admit the food here is delicious. Good quality, tasty, beautiful, but the quantity is absolutely absurb for the high price. I ordered the hummus "plate" which was not at all a hummus plate, but more a bowl of hummus with one tiny roll. After I finished the roll in one bite, I went and asked for another and they gave me one more, which was also gone in one more bite. Then there was a lot more hummus with nothing to eat it on. It was confusing. Anyway, like I said, the food was good, but I left feeling very hungry even though I had spent a lot of money.

Nancy Zazza

Good. Hearty salads, tasty-looking premade sandwiches. Handy for quick nosh, with outside dining, too. New location near old one, off H.Sq. long-time food purveyor.

Jess Peck

Sofra is one of my favorite places in Boston. The morning buns are to die for. There's often a line and no room to sit, so it's best to take your food to go. I also love the tumeric lattes.

Yash Agrawal

Sofra was an amazing experience. The food and the beverages were excellent especially the Red Chilli Chai. The Persian donuts were excellent as well. If you are adventurous, do try the rose ruhbarb pie. It is unique but amazing.

lilia kleemann

Most delicious food, nice coffee, warm atmosphere and very friendly service. Love it!

Erica Driver

The most delicious, freshest, vibrant flavors you’ll ever eat. While you’re there, pick up a copy of one of their cookbooks and start enjoying Sofra dishes at home.

cngamba ng

Excellent breakfast but very crowded and busy!

Kevin Daniels

The seating is limited, the lines are long, the portions are small ... This is all true, but it's totally worth it. Whether you try something sweet or savory, traditional or uncommon you'll be pleasantly surprised. Today I tried their egg sandwich with haloumi, feta butter and bacon on a slightly sweet brioche and I'm wondering why this is the first time I'm experiencing this! A perfect way to start the day.

Abhik Lahiri

Good food and coffee! I really like this place. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because it's a very tiny place with limited seating and is always cramped on weekends. They should consider expanding to a larger space given it's popularity. The staff is very efficient in serving fast though.

Michael Goodwin

Sofra is very good, but I don't quite understand why everybody loves it so much. I mean, the ingredients are great, and the food is well prepared, and since they've updated the dining room or sitting area, it's much easier to hang out there. I still don't quite understand the fascination. I feel like you get a little ripped off here. I don't know... Maybe I'm just being salty about it. Maybe it's because I usually find the staff to be completely uninterested and far "too cool." I don't know. It's definitely worth a visit.

mlc301973

Very crowded but the foods really good

Barnaby Lewis

Love it. Great food. Not too sweet

Katura Huckabay

Amazing pastry!! Everything was spot on with the balance of spices.

Baldin Stern

An eclectic, diverse and robust Middle Eastern menu option.

Angela Kou

I love Sofra! They have an amazing spinach falafel sandwich and some really interesting mediterranean baked goods (liberal use of sesame seeds in many delicious ways). Their mezze plate is also great for trying a few different things.

Alexandra Dékány

Sadly we were disappointed after visiting this place. The cafe itself is extremely small compared to the amount of people that would like to go in there so the crowd was enormous Sunday afternoon. We managed to sit down to a very small table but everything (the table, the seats) was full with crumbs and other ‘things’ that the previous guests left there... The things we ordered were mediocre at the best. The pogaca was great, the baklava and the lamb pie were good (but the pie would have been better warmed up) - but the egg sandwich was mediocre and the shakshuka was simply bad. The whites of the eggs were still runny so clearly the eggs weren’t poached long enough. Also it’s impossible to enjoy your food as everyone sits so close to each other that we kept touching each other with the neighbors and my husband was hit on his back multiple times as people were passing by as the place is too small...

Nicolas Vachicouras

Great food and very original! The service is quick and friendly. However the place is very small and it is difficult to find a good seating.

Kattie Legree

Love this place. Went there a total of 3 times in a week after the first time I tried Sofra Bakery & Cafe. Real simple ingredients, exactly what you want and nothing you don't. Huge portions for modest prices. There's just nothing like a huge plate of rice, seasoned meat, warm pita, tossed salad, and tzatziki sauce.

Boris Efroimskiy

An excellent place for brunch although expect to stand in line during Sat/Sun morning. We enjoyed our shakshuka, poached eggs and a huge cheese burek

Marcos Farias

This place brings you a joy to eat there. Everything is so good, from the pastry to the tea, Breakfast also is amazing.

Sofia Escudero

Amazing. Tasty range of hot foods, wraps, mezze platters, pastries, and drinks. They also have plenty of wrapped goodies and a refrigerated section of food to go. It's a small space, but once the weather's nice, it looks like there are some outside options too. I've found the portions to be a bit small, so you may end up going back for seconds!

Anthony Tarnell

Love this spot. Takeout meals..fantastic. coffee, et al more than wonderful

CJ Leong

Delicious food! Small space but cozy. Not much seating.

MLH

Great but small and usually sardine-packed Brunch / lunch spot and provisions store by the owners of Sarma, one of the best restaurants in the area. Delicious but smallish Mediterranean dishes like spinach falafel and shawarma, inventive specials, wonderful deserts ranging from cookies to cakes, special teas and coffees. Super friendly staff. There’s a patio and a few tables on the sidewalk, and about six parking spaces (street parking isn’t that difficult). They sell their own packaged spices, preserved lemons, harrisa, etc.

Steve Wallin

The Turkish coffee literally made my socks shoot off my feet like nerf footballs.

Groucho Saidit

The staff was sensational. They were delighted to answer questions, discuss ingredients, all with great enthusiasm. They couldn't have been better. As a result, we felt welcomed. We tried a whole range of products and had a lovely experience. The raspberry danish was especially wonderful. But, really, everything was tasty and a real treat.

Lisa Katz

The food is so delicious! They have a very creative and unique menu. On a Sunday morning it was quite busy and the place doesn't have a lot of seating though so be prepared that you might not be able to sit there. It's definitely worth it!

Seth Schorr

Good food but so small.

Max Theriault

Everything is delicious. There will be a line.

Alllove2u

Highly overrated place, as i discovered. Cold falafel on cold pita bread not even grilled, and the bread was not tasty at all....(Moody's Falafel of Central Square, I miss you! ! U were the real deal! )

Pamela Neave

The food is amazing here, and the service is always great. Just wish they'd open up another location with a bigger seating area!

Heverton Dutra

Great place for brunch! An amazing selection of food that its hard to find in Boston. I recommend getting there early or with a lot of extra time. The reason for it is that the place is very small, so it's hard to get a place to sit and enjoy your food.

Robert Slack

Really good. Lots of great choices for any palate. Staff makes good recommendations.

MsNara

Great choice of food, we had the abricot tarte and the lamb flat bread and enjoyed both. The staff is really kind even though the place is so busy all the time.

Michael Pipkin

Amazing Mediterranean cuisine in a cozy atmosphere.

Joe Timm

Great food. Great service.

Sean Persson

Amazing Turkish Breakfast!

Kayla B

I’ve only been once so far, but the rhubarb rose dessert was A++++ superb. I also really enjoyed the sesame caramel iced latte.

Maria Hy

In town visiting and was recommended this delicious place. The only thing you need to know is just go. You will be so glad you did. I loved it so much I am going again tomorrow!

James De Lucas

The food was outstanding! Quick service.

Vyrna Napoli

I didn't get name but the girl that took my money for a choc croisant at 1:30 was so pleasant and has a great SMILE and terrific customer relations..she really shows she loves her job.. I also am drinking the sulfate free wine I bought from Richard. He was so gracious abd helpful to me I'm glad I stopped in for my 1st time

Vivek Mukhatyar

Breakfast / brunch is the best in Boston. Don't miss the Shakshuka if you go there for breakfast. The quality of ingredients and the mastery of the spices is only second to Sarma in all of Boston. Their mezze sampler is also a must try.

Kathy Ushakov

It looks like we found a gem! The coffee is delicious, the atmosphere is great and there is a selection of very tasty breakfast dishes! Also they have a high awareness to customer service!

Mary Still

Delicious Mediterranean dishes and baked goods. A bit pricey for the portion size but it's so good it's worth it. The orange blossom buns are other-wordly

Jin Judy Choi

Tasty baked goods and coffee.

Joseph Sharkey

The desserts...sweet jesus

Dave Hull

A favorite place to eat!

Bülent Kızıltan

Great for breakfast.

payam tarifard

Loved the Turkish tea and pastries

Cathy Meyer

Amazing, every time. When you get the bill, remember that you get what you pay for... it does come at a cost but it's worth it.

Kelsey Christopher

Cute place with lots of things to purchase. Was really busy when I went but food was good and came out fairly quickly for how busy it was.

Ateen Patel

Don't miss out on the apricot almond bostock, it's so tasty. The shakshuka from the breakfast menu was also really nice

Robert Syme

Fantastic baked goods and Turkish coffee. Small pantry with interesting flavours and cookbooks. Cosy and warm. Good vegan lunch options, not so many for breakfast, though.

Sil B.

Amazing, uncomplicated middle eastern-mediterranean food served with a smile. The shop itself is worth a trip, they stock a ton of interesting spices

lovtuscany

Always delicious. The asure breakfast was delightful

judyta frodyma

incredible food (heavenly shakshuka) and pastries. really lovely staff. great little place!

Deanna Dement Myers

Fresh, local, yummy. The dragon tea is out of this world.

Winnie Chen

Pastry was well made

Mark Towler

Spectacular food with flavors you won't find anywhere else. Tight quarters, but worth the wait for a spot to sit.

Heather BT

Mezze plate! So so good!

Helen Maynard

I always think I'm going to like this place more than I do. Very noisy and crowded seating. I get the feeling that they don't really want you to sit there. I understand that they are short on space, but they have quite a bit of space allocated to a wine store that doesn't seem to get much business, and I think it would be better used for seating.

Iffat Farooqi

Love their pastries

Terrie Hayden

Seriously amazing and exotic. The orange morning bun is heavenly.

Priscilla Brown

Sofra pastries were a huge hit at an office breakfast this morning - highly recommend!!! Thank you Sofra staff, I'll be back very soon!!!

Shailesh Monani

Nice cozy place

Larry Law

Absolutely love it here. Everything is delicious and the waitress is lovely.

Soumya Singh

The lamb shawarma I had was out of this world. Quick service, Amazing food!!

Anh Dinh

Excellent Turkish baked goods and small dishes!
