While Tatte is a chain, I especially love this location! Always clean and filled with plenty of natural sunlight, the Cambridge Crossing location is my go-to for getting some work done or simply enjoying a pastry, meal, or a drink. The service is fantastic - I've encountered some of the nicest people here whether I was stopping in for a full meal or grabbing a to-go order. I always assume that bakeries/cafes are stronger in the drinks and pastry department, but I've been really impressed by their food. Some standouts: Lamb hash This dish blew me away! Tender spiced lamb, potatoes, poached eggs, and fresh veggies with a bright sauce pull the whole dish together in a perfect balance. My friends and I fought over this dish because it was so good! Everyone liked this dish more than the shakshuka. Mezze plate I loved trying all the different spreads with the Jerusalem bagel (dense and chewy with tons of sesame seeds) and the scrambled eggs were silky and buttery! Drinks I love the black sesame and pistachio latte though they are a bit sweet for my taste. Now that the weather is warmer, I've been loving their sparkling matcha lemonade and preserved fig and mint soda

Good cakes, generous servings. Hot beverages served in proper cups, but one of our cakes and a coffee were not brought to us, and we had to remind/

Stopped in for a bagel and although we were disappointed that they were out, we had a breakfast sandwich that was sooo good!Excellent coffee and the interior of this restaurant is really well done - loved the tile work.

I went there for lunch and ordered the vegetarian shakshuka—oh, so yummy! Despite the lunch rush, I managed to find a seat. They had plenty of vegetarian options to choose from!

Let me start by saying I got to tatte ALL the time and love it. This tatte was the actual worst experience. They tried to serve me a literal raw egg claiming it was sunny side (it was clear), I asked them to just cook it longer and they refused and made me order something else. Also my kid has allergies and they forced me to order a turkey BLAT (for a 3 yo) and I informed them of allergies so asked them to scale back toppings but very clearly asked them to keep the turkey, avocado and bacon. They also very carelessly told me they can’t guarantee it doesn’t touch any dairy and didn’t use an allergy tag in the order. Again, I’ve been to plenty of tattes to know what they’re capable of accommodating and how they handle it. The sandwich came with 2 pieces of turkey and lettuce. They messed up my other kids order too and the French toast was so dry my kid didn’t eat more than a few bites.Never going back to this tatte location.

I’ll drive from New York City to have anything in this place. I had breakfast sandwich and a cafe au lait and it was amazing. the pastries are simply amazing. this location is new but the staff are adhering to the guidelines, if you want to go back to a nicer and improved Paris come here. 1 suggestions warm up the chocolate croissant (divine)Dietary restrictions: vegan cheese as a possible substitute would be great

Their pastries are yummy. There's lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and the space inside is pretty large.

This Tatte was okay. Sadly the kouign amann I got was a bit overdone so the sugar layer was rock hard and difficult to eat. Overall it was a very nice place to sit and chat for a few hours with friends, and I'd go

Great place to eat, study, and hang out. A downside is probably too crowded 24/7.

What can I say, I'm a Tatte girl. I like its consistency and the white tiled aesthetic and the mix of healthy/slightly less healthy options. After stopping at Beatrice across the street and seeing the absolutely empty pastry case, I grabbed the last kouign amann and the oatmeal raisin cookie at Tatte. The KA was maybe a touch too sweet and bordering on staleness particularly in the center but the flaky layers were perfect and I ate the whole thing with no problem. The oatmeal raisin was a bit of a disaster - extremely dry and crumbly, no raisins to provide any sort of moisture. It was a cookie that had spent a week in the desert. It was less a cookie and more a circular clump of granola. (Sorry, Tatte, I love you, but this was not very good.) The girl who took my order was super sweet (not to draw comparisons but the people behind the counter at Beatrice just haven't been friendly. I guess I'd call them "NYC-friendly" which is to say ... not friendly at all). This Tatte location gets plenty of natural light and there was abundant seating, making it a good place to catch up on work or read. Overall, next time I'm in Cambridge Crossing and need a reliable bite to eat, I'd come here but skip the oatmeal cookie.

This Tatte has lovely decor and a bright, sunny atmosphere. The latte was very foamy, far exceeding my expectations. The berry cheesecake, a blend of cream cheese and ricotta (maybe?), was a light, delectable delight. The espresso mousse didn't disappoint either. Also the croissant sandwich – they've turned a simple dish into pure magic.

Such a cute study spot and the food, pastries, and coffee are so yum! Got the Shakshuka, Smoked Salmon Sandwich, Kouign Amann, Sugar Donut, Black Sesame Latte, and Vanilla Latte to share with a friend. We FEASTED. And have no regrets. If I'm ever in the area again, would love to come here to work. Such good vibes!!!
