The smell of bacon was too good to keep moving past it and we decided to head inside. Best happy accident!! Any place that has staff wearing shirts that say "Stoked for yolks" and has an array of pig decor- jackpot! The small menu was deliciously stacked with breakfast and lunch options; the griddle was sizzling, there's a drink fridge, and a spot to stand and consume. My husband got a turkey and I did a ruby melt; SO GOOD! I perused the menu, and the breakfast options all looked incredible! If you find yourself on this end of Tremont and you smell amazing bacon, follow your nose to Mike and Patty's - you will not be disappointed! Also, staff was super friendly! This place is a total package!

There's a small park with shaded benches about 2 blocks away (Elliot Norton Park) which is a great place to sit down and devour the food. I ordered the Mission Breakfast Burrito and it was delicious. As of August 2026, the website lists the burrito as $14, but the price on the in-person menu was $16. I would give the burrito 4 out of 5 stars because of the way it was wrapped - about a third of the burrito was just egg and cheese and the toppings (avocado, red onion, hash browns, salsa verde, crema) were crammed on the other side of the burrito. If there was a way for the burrito to be wrapped so all the ingredients were more evenly distributed - this would easily be a 5/5 breakfast burrito. One random detail that stuck out to me was that their drinks in their refrigerator were very cold - no lukewarm sodas here! I would come back here to try their signature "Fancy" sandwich. Overall, this is a very solid breakfast spot in Boston!

Milk-y way to quench your thirst! Try our flavored milk in banana, strawberry, or chocolate.

It looks like there are quite a few long time customers to this place, which demonstrates that the quality of the food here is probably very consistent. The service here was awesome. The manager lady (her name is Regina) was very attentive, warm, and friendly. The ambiance overall like I said is very cozy. I always enjoy a good home made breakfast in a small diner. One thing to note that is that this place is cash only.

A corn + cheddar bialy. It did NOT disappoint. I also got london fog with oat milk previously, also very nice, but this place was soooo good we had to come back.

Then I stopped going to the league when I lost a finger so stopped going here. A year later I began coming back and sandwiches were still awesome and people behind the window were great in the mornings. But the past year or so it has gone downhill for me unfortunately. It can take a half hour to get a sandwich. It's so slow to even order at times with one register and so many online orders that they can't keep up with in store it seems. If you DO order online, you can't call and cancel even if time jumps to ANOTHER half hour for sandwich or pizza. I don't know. It's just quite frustrating just trying to get your food and after today I just think I'm giving up. After ordering a sandwich on sourdough, turns out it wasn't toasted or griddled or whatever so the bread was limp and honestly looked like the loaf wasn't cooked all the way through. Spot on with amount of cheese and meat - always, but cmon.. Then I decided to try a blueberry muffin. I kid you not.. No blueberries to be found. None. Peep the pic. Why am I paying this much money after waiting a half hour and missing the key ingredient? They gotta get it together. I don't know if it's after they moved from the window shop or have trouble keeping up with the volume of orders, but I'll be taking a break. They're in a great location, so I'm sure they won't miss me. But no blueberries, man...
