    Coffee (no refills)
    Tanya J.

    Great breakfast joint, good prices, good service. The food was great. They service your typical breakfast items. Small inside that could use a renovation, but gives small diner energy. There isn't refill on coffee, sad! But we enjoyed our meals nonetheless. The bathroom is much to be desired... so be warned. Good option for breakfast if you're in the area!

    Came here with my family and had a great breakfast! The service was great and the food was delicious too. It was kinda of busy which to me is good because that means people like it! So I would recommend this place for breakfast

    Staple in Croissant Bread

    Today 8/17/25 i ordered my usual go to breakfast sandwich from Dempseys , as i was unwrapping the sandwich i noticed what appeared to be a staple embedded in the bread. I immediately called the restaurant to make them aware of the situation but they placed blame on the Bread company ( Edelweiss ) but they should also be quality checking products before sending them out . not only that myself and my coworker also found hair in our potatoes . what makes the situation worse i'm pregnant and i thank goodness i didn't bite into that sandwich talk about EMOTIONAL DISTRESS !!!

    Steak and eggs

    Food was delicious, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. I recommend the steak and eggs!

    Two 2 Eggs & Corned Beef Hash
    Diana S.

    Hole in the wall so perfectly northern diner style. Being in the south, I've missed the New England corn beef hash with runny poached eggs. Although my eggs came out medium poached, it was quickly fixed and everything was delicious. The meat was so flavorful. The potatoes looked like they might be bland but they were heavily seasoned and crispy on the outside. Only catch is they do not serve free refills, but the coffee mugs are pretty big. They also let you know before simply pouring another cup which I find pretty considerate these days.

    Onion in strawberry Waffle

    Ordered from Dempseys on Uber eats for the first time. Got a strawberry waffle with whoop creme. Four bites in I bit into a raw onion. Ruined the whole waffle for me. Makes me worried about other cross contamination issues.

    Food really wasn't bad, it was super special what I should have noticed was there was only one Cook staffed today. It was the closest thing to the hotel we stayed before catching my flight. Waited almost 50 minutes for my food. I guess it's my fault that they were understaffed today otherwise I would have opted for something else

    This place rocks so much we came back for a second time, though our stay at Seaport was so short…read moreand originally we wanted to use every meal at a different spot. First of all, the pastry case just beautifully displays all the baked goods. It's quite a sight to see! I love the variety and flavors, very unique. If you know what you want, gotta get in line and grab it quick! If you wanna put in your own order, you can use the kiosk, which is really fun to use. I ordered a chai with oat milk (it's very light in flavor) and got a bialy. Honestly I had not had a bialy in over 25+ years... and was surprised to see it in the case and I had to have it. 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. My daughter loves pop tarts so when she saw it in the case, she got a blueberry pop tart and said it was very flakey and the jam was very jamful. It was the-last-one, even had the sign stuck in it!! She also got the french toast (2 slices) with kid's milk and said it was the best french toast she's ever had. My sis got a chocolate pain suisse, which I had never seen before. It's basically brioche filled with pastry cream and chocolate. It looked delicious and with coffee, my sis ate the whole thing up. All in all, this place has so much delicious eats.. I can understand if you live here, you could come every morning and still not get to everything in the pastry case! Definitely be back if we're in the Boston area again.

    Cute place. Has a great selection of pastries. The coffee crumble cake was a little dry but the…read morecinnamon roll I also ordered was delicious. Code was good and the service was great.

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!
