What a wonderful location for this amazing bakery in the Heart of Boston across from Boston Common and minutes away from all the Historic Places to visit! The bakery just made my mouth water when I noticed warm Cinnamon Rolls and had to grab one to eat! Very tasty and got a personal tour of the Bakers making those tasty treats! Nicely designed and the Staff very helpful and super friendly! Nicely atmosphere to sit and enjoy your favorite sweet treat with a beverage. I will definitely return because the Manager was extremely kind to allow me to take a few photos! If you go there tell her JON sent you! And pick up something sweet for your home to share! read more

Did a take out order and ate it the next day and still tasted delicious. It was an intricate dessert and not cheap but aesthetically pleasing and the apple tart was very good and not overly sweet. read more

Quick cafe by Boston common which unfortunately gets a ton of foot traffic. It is so crowded in there and it gets really warm! They have bagel sandwiches and a coffee bar so it suffices a breakfast need while walking through the common. Prices were fine and service was fine but there wasn't anything super memorable about this place. read more

Came back this time I was in Boston. Got a chocolate babka, has great texture, tons of chocolate chips. Super oily though, which I didn't like. A few chairs outside, lots of space inside. Each piece including tax is $7.38, quite expensive for what it is. a\ read more

Just off the Boston Common is a bakery known for its chocolate babka. Walk inside and see bagels, pastries, and coffee on the menu. My wife loved her broissant (a mix of babka and croissant) and my cheese and spinach burekas was a great savory breakfast. My daughter found their bagel softer than most and the cream cheese more like a slab of feta. My latte was not great. It wasn't balanced and tasted burnt. There's plenty of tables and two clean restrooms. read more

Good size bakery with a decent amount of seating for how packed it was on a Sunday afternoon. Babkas are the go to pastry in Boston, and they do them right! They offered plenty of samples for those in line. I got a pre made lox sandwich and a pumpkin babka. The sandwich was delicious with soft bread! The babka was sweet without being over the top! Definitely a must try!! read more

Chocolate babka was delicious. Flakey, rich and a lot of chocolate flavor. Almond was also very good. A little too buttery for me actually (a bit greasy), but good. Can't go wrong with the babka here! Employees were very friendly. Prices reasonable. read more

I arrived five minutes after they opened. Ordered a tasty chocolate Babka fresh out of the oven. Their Babka is $8 a slice yet two people could split one slice. Lots of different flavors to choose from. read more

When you step in, it smells so good inside! I tried their chocolate banana babka, almond babka, and their classic chocolate one! I would say the chocolate one was my favorite! None of them were too overly decadent nor sweet. They were perfect. Staff was also serving out free samples and they had a good amount of seating area! read more

The babkas were amazing. Both people who had the chocolate hazelnut babkas said they were incredible. My mom said it's one of the best she's ever had and she's had a lot. It was even good the next day. The croissant was huge and so good soft and tasty. It was great the next day as well. The broissant was very sweet and delicious. The buerkas we had were great as well. The staff were super friendly. Shout out Ricardo the baker who got me a fresh babka out of the oven since I was waiting 20 mins. Everything is made fresh. The place was clean. Would come here again next time I'm in Boston. read more

This is a local chain and it's pretty good. They have breakfast items, savory and sweet baked goods, coffee, drinks, sandwiches and babka, which appears to be their specialty. We went for a late morning snack and I really enjoyed the potato burekas, and the sandwiches looked pretty good too. It's not a huge location but there is a decent amount of seating and they were doing a good business the day we were there. Prices were pretty reasonable for the area and what we got. read more

We were visiting from out of town and met up with family here. Special shout out to Kenedy who was lovely and was tremendously helpful and patient with everyone! The service here was great and the baked goods were top tier. We had a chocolate pastry babka and a bagel with cream cheese. Both were tremendously delicious. Their coffee was just okay. There are a lot of tables inside and a few outside. We walked there so cannot comment on the parking. Great for breakfast on the go! read more

The babkas are super duper good, and the workers are very kind. I had a bite of my dad's egg sandwich and didn't think it was that good, though. So, from my experience the pastries are delicious, but the sandwiches are okay. The prices were fair but not cheap, too. read more

Sometimes it's really cold outside and your kids are really whiny and the only thing you can really do is pour hot chocolate down their throats to get them to stop. Bakey is a good spot to stop to get said hot chocolate, and I actually really appreciate that it wasn't the temperature of molten lava, so I could pour it into my kids' faces almost immediately. Shout out to the very nice folks at the counter for that. Also, while you're in there, your local cousins may tell you that this place also happens to have some of the best babka in the city. So you get the chocolate and the almond (apparently their specialty), and you eat it, and you agree. I like this place. They've also got a stand in Quincy Market if you're interested in such things. read more

Was told by a local that this is the place for coffee. When I walked in I learned it's apparently the place for bread too. The sheer variety is worth the trip - their food looks incredible! My coffee was delicious! read more

They were right, the Babka is the best in town. The pistachio is awesome especially with a cup of cappuccino. They offer other flavors too. Will definitely come back and try their many offerings when I'm back in town. The best partI managed to get the big loaf of babka and ask them to cut it up into three so I can take it as carry on going back to California. Service staff are awesome for they take care of their customers well. read more

Bakey makes the most amazing chocolate babka! I stopped by this location right before I left Boston so I could bring a few loaves home to share. This location is large and clean and I like walking in to the smells of all the beautiful freshly baked treats. Staff is friendly and efficient. I got a few loaves and a few other treats to go. Highly recommend a stop at Bakey!! read more

So many options for Babka, which is a sweet braided bread originated in the Jewish communities of Europe. Can't resist the ooey, gooey delicious baked goods. Smells so good once you walk in. They warm it up before they serve it and the chocolate one is so delicious. The Baker is, James Beard Award-nominee, Uri Scheft. There's lots of people working and chatting at the common tables. read more

Stopped by to escape the chilly wind, and wow--this place is heaven for your nose and sweet tooth. And it smells divine in here! They're famous for their babkas, and it's easy to see why. When we visited, they had chocolate, raspberry, blueberry, and almond options: each slice is $6.50 ($6.90 for chocolate), or you can get a full loaf for $19.50. Other items on the menu included spinach & cheese burekas, goat cheese croissants, muesli rolls, and challah. We tried the chocolate and raspberry babkas. The chocolate babka is supreme: gooey, rich, and made with dark, high-quality chocolate that leans more bitter than sweet. Loved it. The raspberry babka wasn't my fave--dryer and a bit less indulgent. The tart raspberry flavor is nice, but I didn't like the sweet raspberry cream on top. But the babka base itself is fantastic: light, airy, buttery, and slightly sweet like brioche. They also serve Seattle's Caffè Umbria coffee, which pairs well with the pastries. I recommend getting a hot drink to enjoy with your pastry. We opted out since we already had coffee from another place. There's so many tables inside, water, and public bathrooms. You can watch them make the baked goods (bagels were in the works) and grab your coffee from the coffee bar or cross the street to enjoy in the Common. read more

Quick service, clean environment, friendly staff. I ordered a pumpkin Babka. It was baked fresh, warm, cinnamon, topped with maybe a caramel swirl and toasted pumpkin seeds. It was amazing and would order again! Yummy! read more

Came to Bakey to try the Babka. What a delectable treat it was. We had the chocolate, banana, pecannnn babka. Highly recommend! It had so many flavors all harmoniously operating within the confines of the bread, so delicious! We washed it down with a hot lavender latte. The latte was delicious as well and had a heart shape to boot. Service was quick and well executed. The ambiance of the place is warm and inviting with the smell of fresh baked goods present. Highly recommend if you are in the commons walking around. read more

OMG, Bakey! We have come here every time we go to Boston. The fresh chocolate babka is unparalleled. It's my favorite treat after running the marathon every year. Their other baked goods and sandwiches are great too, but that chocolate babka is what chocolate/bread lovers dream of. The service is prompt and friendly. It's mostly a takeout place, with a small interior space. They sell various coffee drinks as well. It's 100% worthwhile, if you're in Boston! read more

Wow... Bakey had the best bagel sandwich I've had in my life. The bread was so fluffy and flavorful... 10/10 brunch. The classic chocolate babka was pretty good as well - even 1 slice is kind of heavy, so definitely share. I'd definitely come back for the bagel sandwiches if I'm in Boston! read more

Perfect! We stopped in for a quick breakfast and had the Chocolate Babka, Spinach & Cheese Bureka and Lentil Beet salad.

A fantastic find for artisan baked goodies, bread, baked babka with flavors of strawberry, raspberry, chocolate, and more. The open layout allows to watch the entire baking process in action, adding to the authentic bakery experience. We stopped for americanos, however could not help to try a chocolate bubka and a hearty grain scone. Despite not being hungry, to my shame, I finished the entire crispy outside and soft inside delicious scone. The service was friendly and fast. It's a delightful place to enjoy baked goodies or a quick snack with a delicious caffeinated beverage. read more

I went to the location across from Boston Common as I had seen the sign outside with a blueberry babka filled with overflowing filling. What I got instead was a dry pastry with hardly any blueberry. If this were not enough it was served by an indifferent, unsmiling staffer who said neither hello nor thank you. Reading these reviews I see nothing has changed for years given consistent negative feedback that tracks with my own. I DM'd Bakey's Instagram account to raise the non-filling issue and commented on the post and got no response. Buyer beware and don't believe their hype. read more

Tried the raspberry babka and the savory box, which was around $50 total. Pretty good -- the pastries were nice and flakey outside. However, the filled pastries were a bit soft/soggy inside, and a bit over salty. I'm not sure the savory box was the way to go, since it was a bit samey. Would be back, it's very nice to grab a pastry to eat in the common! read more

Great appearance, ambiance and full of delicious Babkas and pastries. The Bakey team works from 6am to 7pm daily baking fresh deliciousness! Prices are fair for Boston with great location, across from the Common Park and a great staff. All together Bakey is what they say it is. A great baking and bakery experience! Gotta try it! read more

I always get their Too Good to Go bags, which are fantastic. I stopped by for lunch and got a salmon lox sandwich, an almond babka (which my friend swears is their best babka) and a lavender latte. The lox sandwich is premade and wrapped in plastic but the bagel was very soft and the whole thing was pretty good, albeit a bit small compared to other lox bagels I've had in the area. The almond babka is also excellent. I love all their babkas--haven't decided which is my favorite yet! I ordered the lavender latte kind of on accident, since it sounded intriguing, but I don't super like coffee. That said, the coffee was pretty good (for a coffee hater) and I gave the rest to my husband. My only gripes are that even when you're eating in, they give you paper plates and basically don't have any real silverware or reusable dishes. I suspect this saves money/time on dishes but unfortunately generates a lot of trash. Also, there isn't a comprehensive menu in this location. There are some menus that tell you what goes well with what but it doesn't appear to have everything that's available on the menu. The sandwiches, for example, had a separate menu display so it was hard to tell what you could actually order all at once without wandering around and checking out all the signs. read more

This bakery is so good and everything smelled delicious. I got the mushroom babka and my friend got the potato bureka. The mushroom was mouthwatering and was so savory. My friend enjoyed the potato bureka and even went back the same day to get another item. They warmed everything up too so it was nice and crispy. Excellent service :) There's also plenty of tables and seats. Some people were working on their laptops too read more

This is LEGIT a 10/10 establishment. The chocolate and almond babka were outrageously good. The seeded Challah was fresh, fluffy, and delicious. The spinach and cheese pastry was one of my favorite things I've eaten in a long, long time. Staff was welcoming and super kind. We cannot wait to go back. read more
