    Custom mochi menu
    April T.

    Still a really solid dessert place but everytime I've come, I've had to wait more than 30 minutes for dessert already made. I'm not even getting the mochi made on the spot. I just don't know if I can keep frequenting if the service doesn't improve because it's very apparent that they need to hire more people to handle the traffic. I've waited for more of the item I wanted to be made because they chose to serve the people who came after me first with the stuff I ordered. It's just very disorganized. Makes me sad because I do really like the food here

    Mochi! Yes! We stumbled upon this bakery and decided to come on in and see what it had. We were nicely surprised by the mochi donuts and all the different yummy looking pastries! There was a self serve section where you can choose from a variety of yummy looking treats and another counter where you ordered from at the cash register. We couldn't decide but finally got a couple of mochi donuts: the taro and caramel donut and regular mango Mochi. Everything was so nicely packaged and we were excited to try all our treats! The mochi donuts were very good. The taro mochi had some yummy white chocolate which complemented the taro flavor. The mango Mochi was also very good. It was nice and gooey and it had a good mango flavor. They also had boba milk tea drinks that we will have to try next time. But now we know all the yummy surprises this bakery had!

    After coming back my third time I can say I've noticed some quality issues. I ordered a Taro boba and usually their boba is very soft and fresh but this time it was very hard and old and mixed with some soft ones, it was very unpleasant. I got their tiramisu and for the price it's ones of the more poor ones I've had, for their prices crystals is a bit crazy to pay for when the food is just alright. For me their standouts are the cheesecake, their real Tea bobas (oolong, etc) and mochi. If this was better priced and more consistent I would be back much more. Decent spot I've come to a few times.

    Stopped in because I have been hear all the hype about the fresh mocha, lemme tell you it doesn't disappoint and was delicious, the mochi is so fresh, the filling is light and airy. We got a four pack and should have gotten an eight pack. We also got drinks but I didnt photograph, they were all good too. I will be back, parking sucked but we found a fairly close spot.

    This bakery is a little bit outside of Boston, but worth the trip! The mochis are amazing. The cream is so fresh and I love the texture of the handmade mochi. Ordering at the desk is really chaotic, so I recommend ordering at the self-service kiosk. I tried ordering at the desk but there was no menu readily available, so I couldn't figure out what I wanted. A lot of people in there and not much room to sit, so I recommend getting something to go!

    My first time at this bakery and won't be my last. My friends and I enjoyed their mochi which was soft and not too sweet. We thought the milk tea boba was very light, more milk than tea and was a bit watery. For mochi we got the following flavors: Mango - My favorite. It contains fresh mango and whipped cream. Strawberry - Tasted like strawberry shortcake. My second favorite. Matcha - Filled with matcha cream and some red beans. It was a bit too much even as a person that loves matcha. Cookies and cream - Surprisingly pretty good. It has bits of cookies crunch. Chocolate - dark chocolate mousse like filling.

    The hype is truly worth it. Delicious and fresh mochi! They have pre-made options and made to order options as well. I got the Matcha Mochi from with rice powder and my friends got Peach with Oreo dusting. Absolutely delicious, super soft and chewy. They also serve mochi donuts, drinks and other bakery items so there is definitely something for everyone. The service can take some time if you are getting made to order item but it's worth it trust! Super cute bakery but the space is limited.

    The mochi is good; however, I bought the taro, purple rice & pork floss sandwich with an expiration date of 4.27.26 written on it and it was definitely already expired as it was sour.

    The customized mango vanilla cheese mochi here is one of the best things I've had this year. I don't say that lightly. The strawberry mochi was delicious too, and the matcha was a solid classic. Everything is made fresh in-house daily the texture is exactly what good mochi should be. The mango boba tea was amazing, rich and filling. The jasmine tea was a nice lighter option alongside it. The space is cute, unpretentious, and the owners are super friendly and welcoming. Loved it so much we put together a full reel about the experience find it on Instagram @bostonvegeats if you want to see it before you visit. Newton's most underrated dessert spot. Worth the trip from anywhere in the Boston area.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    We stopped by for a quick treat and really enjoyed the mochi. We tried the mango and matcha flavors, and both were delicious. The mochi layer was nice and thin with a generous amount of filling, which we loved. My boyfriend got the Matcha Smoothie with Cheese Foam. It had good flavor but was a bit too sweet for my taste. There were also some larger chunks of ice in the smoothie. Not a huge deal, but it would have been better if it was blended more smoothly. I ordered the Boston Summer. I didn't really like it at first, but to be fair, I didn't know what I was ordering and still don't quite know what was in it. The bakery itself is very small. While we were waiting for our drinks, a lot of people came in, and it started to feel pretty cramped and claustrophobic. Not the most comfortable space to hang around in, but it seems like a popular spot. Overall, the quality was solid and I would definitely come back for the mochi!

    This place popped up on my TikTok FYP page a couple of times so I've been dying to try it! The store itself is fairly small with just a couple of seats by the window. There was only 1-2 people working there when I went on a Sunday afternoon so there was a little bit of a wait. The mochi was 10000% worth it! The mochi is so soft and the fillings are the perfect sweetness! I'm definitely coming back here!

    Wait time for actual items were slightly longer since they seemed understaffed and online mobile orders were coming in more. For instance in the fridge we see they had a certain amount of mochis but they couldn't see it because the online orders came in before I got to the register but they haven't filled those orders yet. If you pay with cash you get 5% off. Had the strawberry mochi and it was good with texture and fluffiness not being dry. The mango with cream cheese mochi was interesting, not my cup of tea as the combo didn't really fit for me personally.

    Ayatt A.

    The fresh mochi is absolutely incredible. They are almost $5 each which is a bit steep but they're huge. The fresh cream is so tasty and this is definitely a must try if you love mochi. We tried the strawberry and mango flavors and absolutely loved them both. They had several other flavors like oreo, matcha, and more. So good!

    What a great bakery to stop by in Coolidge Corner. There was constantly people popping in and out…read moreso you can tell it's a crowd favorite. I came here with 2 friends to work from home and we had a great time! I can attest it's a solid spot to WFH. They have one large (more communal) table which is where we sat, as well as a handful for 2 seaters for folks to either sit alone or across from a friend. Clearly a lot of people come here to WFH, but you can't blame them. The WiFi is free and we didn't experience any disruptions, there's great lighting in addition to the natural light from their floor to ceiling glass walls, and the music is so good here. They were playing all 2010s indie, pop, and alternative hits. We all loved it. I ordered a decaf iced latte with Carmel and it was delicious! A bit on the pricey side, but it is what it is. :) My friends got a sandwich and also tried their coffee and really liked it too. We will be back!

    Bakey is a great place to go in the Coolidge Corner area of Brookline! They have so many delicious…read morebakery items and coffee/tea beverages. They have standard coffee and tea, beverages, but also some fun seasonal drinks and they have non-dairy milk alternatives! All of the bakery items are gorgeous and I don't think you could go wrong with whatever you choose to try. I appreciate that for the bakery items. They also display the allergens on the little cards, which is super convenient for anyone with allergies or restrictions. The service is friendly and there is a surprising amount of seating inside, which is great to take advantage of the natural light from the big windows. There's also some seating outside when the weather is nice.
