I had two Latte's today, one in the morning around 8am, and a second one at around 2pm. The first had no flavor, was disappointed. I figured I would give them a second try, maybe the espresso machine wasn't completely warmed up. Second Latte was mostly milk, could not even taste the espresso. Too bad, this use to be a B+ house, now I would rate it a C-.

Every time I get Pavement, I remember how overrated it is, but this time takes the cake. I spent almost $22 on the smallest cappuccino I've ever seen and a bagel I've been craving all day. Not sure if they hire people who can't read or what because almost none of my bagel order was right (and I was missing what I paid extra for) but it said it all right there on the order slip attached. Wasn't even busy. I will not be returning and will be telling everyone I know to go elsewhere next time.

Overpriced! $14 for a bagel and a matcha is outrageous!! On top of that, horrible service. Littered with people on their laptops, the library is down the street folks! Much rather prefer the Allston location as the staff are personable and service is quick!

Sandwiches are good, but overpriced. Espresso is literal garbage, burnt, citrusy, unswalloawable. The drip coffee is also gross. Farmer horse around the corner is infinitely better and cheaper. This place is in business because of dumb northeastern students

I like everything about this Pavement except the seating here is often full, which is to be expected in Boston, but this place has a lot of space and I feel could have more efficient seating.

AMAZING bagels and sandwiches! My favorite is the rosemary salt bagel. You can tell it’s homemade and it’s light yet so good. The coffee can be a hit or miss sometimes but when it’s done right, it’s good too! I would recommend the death cream cold brew and vanilla iced latte. Those are always great!Dietary restrictions: Vegan and vegetarian optionsParking: Parking out front is always open and easy. Metered parking

Maybe the food is good, we wouldn't know because it took thirty minutes for them to spread cream cheese on a bagel and we had to leave before it was done.

I got the BLT on a rosemary salt bagel with cream cheese instead of aioli. Pretty yummy. The bacon was perfect and the tomatoes were fresh. I’ve never had Boston bagels before and it was okay, very fluffy but still a hard exterior. The rosemary wasn’t overpowering and neither was the salt. I also got a London fog, very comforting.
Such good breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Definitely order ahead because it can get busy at times. Great for a hungover munch!

The food was great, but it took one whole hour to get a bagel. There was also a rat running around on the floor, which ruined the atmosphere entirely.

It's essentially just a very nice and small coffee house. Prices aren't bad and the food is good. I'm not really a coffee person so I've mostly tried their pastries and teas, which are consistently good. The service is quick too. It's nothing too special, but a nice place to stop on a morning commute for a small breakfast.
