    Brojo Croissant amazing  delicious and full of flavor
    Stacey G.

    Stopped by for a late breakfast with the family. Really enjoyed the food and the decore. Had the croissant sandwich which was delicious and full of flavor. Grilled cheese was devoured by the kids and also tried the chilaquiles bowl. Definitely will be coming back! Ambiance is great with some very comfy seats and couches. Service was great and fast too.

    Ham and Egg Raclette (replaced the ham with turkey)
    Nayia R.

    Hidden gem in Georgetown. I was in the area taking care of some things and wanted to get coffee and food. This location showed up in my Yelp search and I was immediately interested in checking them out. You walk in and immediately it's a great ambiance. The interior design is gorgeous. The staff at the register was very friendly and helpful. I was with my daughter, we ordered the Chicken Caesar wrap and Ham & egg raclette but I substituted the ham for turkey and it was absolutely delicious. My daughter said the same for her wrap. I also order the white chocolate mocha w/ almond milk and it was so good. Glad I tried them out. This will also be my go to spot when I have friends and family visit. The Georgetown area is so cool to me and has great eats around. Will be back for sure.

    Honey miso espresso
    Anna B.

    Was next door and swung by for a quick coffee, being especially intrigued by the mention of a honey miso espresso. That's exactly what I got, and holy moly is it good! It's this perfect blend of savory, sweet and creamy all in one, with the boost of a double espresso shot to power you through the day. I'll definitely be trying to reverse engineer this, and everything else on their large specialty coffee and tea menu :) Very nicely decorated interior with high ceilings as well!

    Miso honey latte

    I was driving thru Georgetown and noticed a shop with plants surrounding all the windows, which made me very easily lured in. Brother Joe is simultaneously the most exciting and relaxing shop I've visited: the lighting was warm and low, most decorations were rhino themed, full of plants, and most importantly some great couches. I ordered a ham and egg raclette which was a nice balance of savory and sweet, and a miso honey latte which was the most umami coffee I've had and I loved it. They sell Herkimer coffee which ranges from $15 - $17 for 12 ounces and lots of other fun drinks and coffee gadgets. The ambiance was comfortable, service was great, and food and coffee was amazing. Will be back again soon!

    Cute little coffee shop! Coffee, breakfast dishes and some pastries are easy to be had at Brother Joe. The selections of food and drink are pretty fun and unique and the flavors were great. I had a horchata themed coffee drink and a BLTA sandwich and was super pleased with both. They have a few inside and outside tables, plus there are a ton of kitchen, cocktail items and even bottles of booze for purchase. It is a fun little place to get coffee or even buy a gift for someone. Worth another stop.

    BLAT

    Cute casual spot and you order up front then find a seat. There's a small seating area around the corner that's tucked away from their shop area. The person who helped us was very friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. I got the BLAT with egg and it was beyond delicious! Also got the tiramisu latte which was recommended to us and she said that if we didn't like it, she'd make us something else. My friend got the prosciutto sandwich and she said that was also delicious. I don't know why I haven't been here sooner!! Will definitely be back.

    Cute little meet up place

    Wow! lovely coffee and food joint tucked away. Home made Coffee flavors of sesame, cardamom and miso. Yummy! Personable staff. A great reason to visit Georgetown. Perfect couldn't be better.

    I think this might be the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. It's a cute space and it looks like there's a store section that I'd like to explore in the future! Service was lovely and quick. But seriously, the sandwich was incredible and I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. They had some fun seasonal options for drinks that I'm also looking forward to trying, but the basic iced mocha I got was great!

    boy, was this a great find! not sure why it hasn't been on my radar, given how often i seem to find myself in georgetown but i plan to make up for lost time and frequent this place when my schedule allows. great drink options with interesting flavors in a variety of sizes, depending upon the quantity of caffeine you desire. nice array of savory breakfast options! i chose the breakfast sandwich and its after 4pm and i honestly have not been hungry since eating it at 9am....that says something! there were people working at tables although it didn't immediately seem there is wifi to be used (?) i didn't ask but would actually like to confirm an answer to this because id love to come and situate myself there for a couple of hours getting some things done, if so. i really enjoyed what i ordered and the ambiance is great. someone with a flair for decorating has had a hand in designing the interior and it works! there's a lot of live plants in good shape so clearly they are being adequately cared for and the customers seem to be as well.

    A cool breakfast place with something for everyone type. The Cafe has wines, lots of sauces, coffee mugs, beans, coffee makers and airplants. I ordered coffee and sat down for a while to catch up with friends. The menu had a lot of items, mainly breakfast and sandwiches and some desserts. Service was good, the barista was friendly and answered one of my friend's question reg their teas.

    Great food and great service. There are only about three tables to sit at. We went on a weekday though and there was only one other person seated. There is free street parking right outside. Food: The breakfast burrito was stupendous. Loved the verde sauce and the meat that melts in your mouth. The home-style potato's inside were also a nice touch and we added avocado to really tie the whole thing together. The croissant sandwich was nice and crisp with fresh ingredients. It gets a bit oily as many grilled croissants do. Since my hubby and I split and exchanged the burrito and croissant, the oily aspect wasn't overwhelming. Drink: I loved my snickers latte. The barista said that they make their own syrups and that they cut nicely into their bold roasts. I loved the almond and caramel combo. Cute ambience with portraits of animals in people clothing (always a fan :)

    Avocado and bacon toast

    My third time here and just as phenomenal every time. Service, friendliness, and the quality of the food is great. They made room for more seating and there's now a self-service kiosk in case lines are long. Ordered the chocolate mocha coffee with oatmilk and it was exactly what I was craving. Can't wait to come back!

I'm actually not a bagel guy, nor do I ever think about them when it comes to grabbing a quick bite somewhere but this was a perfect opportunity to try it again. There was an assortment of bagels, and I got half of an everything bagel and - the one that several of my coworkers highly recommended - the rosemary bagel. Both go well with cream cheese. - The everything bagel was pretty standard; I could taste the garlic and sesame seeds throughout. Garlic was quite powerful on this one though, and I almost thought of garlic bread until I remembered bagels are harder to chew on. - My favorite was the rosemary bagel, just like my coworkers. I could taste the herbs clearly on this one; it was aromatic yet a little bitter. It was balanced with the saltiness already present on the bagel. Since I didn't go to their physical location - which looks like quite a walk from Georgetown - I have yet to see the inside of this place. Having some of their bagels makes me wanna go check it out someday!

I just ordered a half dozen of bagels this time but would like to sit a bit next time. Cute place in the neighborhood. Everything Bagel was kind of on the darker side and I was worried it might be whole wheat or something.... Just baked a bit darker than my preference. Got them home and they were crusty with a good chew. Will be back again next time I'm in Georgetown or Beacon Hill.

Food is fantastic- myself, and the three people with me all loved our sandwiches. Italian beef was delicious- I would pass on the potato salad. French Dip was scarfed down- one of my husband's favorite French dips- in his words. We all shared the chips in queso as an appetizer- was shocked how spicy it was, but was very addicting. My only reason for 4 stars is that two of ordered Moscow Mules and we were brought what we thought were Whiskey Sours- definitely not what we ordered. Our server seemed to be the bartender and server- so she was busy! Overall highly recommend for decent drinks and bomb sandwiches.

The Taylor Street was mediocre--the cold cuts were whatever and it needed some sort of zing. For sides, the green salad with bleu cheese dressing was outstanding, thanks to the house-made dressing, but the chips and salsa were lackluster due to the stale chips. The salsa was good. Service was top notch--attentive, friendly, and timely. Ambience: I like old buildings, so this was right up my alley. The restaurant was clean and had an upbeat vibe. The seating was hard on the butt and back.

We ordered the Meatball Sub and Eggplant Sub with marinara sauce. Both sandwiches were flavorful and satisfying. The meatball sub was hearty and comforting, while the eggplant sub had a rich marinara sauce that worked well with the sandwich. We were especially disappointed that the Cubano was sold out, as it was one of the main reasons we stopped by. The only drawback was the price--at around $20 per sandwich, it felt a bit expensive for what you get, especially considering it was just a 6-inch sub, even though the quality was good. We visited during a FIFA World Cup match, so the line was quite long, but it moved steadily and efficiently. No complaints there. The atmosphere is casual and straightforward, with indoor seating only. Its downtown location near the stadiums makes it a convenient spot for a quick meal before or after an event. Overall, a good sandwich shop with quality food, though the pricing keeps it from being a must-visit. I'd still come back to finally try that Cubano.
