I love Japonaise Bakery for their adorable anime- themed pastries! While their Totoro Bun is…read moredefinitely the most popular, they also like to experiment with new flavors & characters. The display in the front with all the figurines and product samples is the cutest thing you will see all day. Although their Kuromi Bun had a nice (not too sweet) custard filling, the bread itself was a tad too dry. We also got their Shio Butter Bread which was the better choice. We happened to get a freshly baked one which was fluffy and melt in your mouth delicious! Also, it must be said that their service is A+. Their staff are truly such kind folks - always smiling and making friendly conversation with their customers. Turns out they were testing a new dough for the Shio Bread so they even gave us one on the house to try. The kind gesture was very sweet and much appreciated!

The worker was quick and efficient with making the drink - I opted for something you usually don't see on the menu and it didn't disappoint. It didn't knock me out of the park or anything, but the drink was refreshing enough and hit the spot. Thanks, OneZo!

The Sipping Room by Breeze is a small, intimate cafe in Boston that feels like a genuine find…read morerather than another coffee shop filling a corner. We walked into a minimalist and calm space with enough personality to make it comfortable for a longer stay, the kind of room where the lighting and the seating encourage you to settle in rather than rush out. The dalgona coffee is one of the standout orders and delivered the creamy, slightly bitter contrast that makes the format work when it is done well. We had it with oat milk, which smoothed out the richness without losing the depth of the coffee underneath. The matcha was another high point, aromatic and grassy in a way that reflects quality sourcing, and notably not overly sweet. The hojicha with hojicha foam was on rotation during our visit, layered and smooth in a way that made it an easy recommendation for anyone who leans toward roasted, nutty flavors. Prices across the menu are genuinely affordable for the quality. The loose leaf teas can be rebrewed multiple times, which added real value to the experience as we settled in for a while. Service was warm and unhurried, with staff who clearly know the drink menu well and are happy to talk through the options without any pressure. For a handcrafted drink in a space that feels like it was built for people who actually care about what they are drinking, The Sipping Room earns a spot on the short list. We would come back for the dalgona coffee and a quiet afternoon with a rebrewed pot of tea.

This is a nice spot for getting work done if you can find a spot.

I will say, it felt a little cramped, but the atmosphere is very quiet and good for focusing. As for the drink itself, I was impressed with the matcha powder quality and the fact that it was made to order. However it was also very watery and honestly way overpriced for the size. I can't say I'd come here again as there are several other spots in the city that have better drinks and seating and that are in nicer, more accessible areas, but overall not a bad experience coming here.

Little bit of seating inside and a cozy atmosphere makes for good studying, working, or just conversing. Jasmine Milk Tea w/ Boba - boba was fresh and very flavorful! Chew was alright as the pearls were more of a medium size, which I typically don't prefer, but they were well marinated. Tea was pretty faint, at 25% sugar I couldn't quite get any jasmine taste. Wouldn't get this drink again, but maybe on the boba, and would likely try a specialty drink.

They have a good selection of bubble tea, matcha, and coffee, as well as some pastries and desserts. I ordered the lychee jasmine fruit tea and it was staggeringly sweet. For a lot of bubble tea places, you can customize the sugar level to 0-100% and I would've preferred having a choice here. I didn't see an iPad ordering option. As it was, my drink was also 80% ice for almost $6 - definitely not a treat I can get all the time. Quite a bit of seating inside. We came on a slow Sunday afternoon and the place was a ghost town with our pick of the tables. Only one girl working and making all the drinks; she wasn't super friendly, oh well.

I must be one of the few people to come here and not order a drink at all. I had heard that their…read moresnacks were good, so I stopped by for a quick bite to eat before heading to the park nearby. I ordered the Luxury Crepe A (Green Bean Dough, Egg, Crisper, Lettuce, Sausage) for $8.95 and it was great - I'd definitely stop by here again for another next time I'm nearby! It also only took a few minutes to make, so it's definitely something you can quickly grab while you're walking around the area. Luxury Crepe A ($8.95) - Although $8.95 feels a little high for the ingredients in this, it was actually quite good. The "crisper" is a large sheet of fried wonton and gave a great crunch that didn't get soggy over time. The green bean dough tasted like a normal crepe, but the egg and green onion added a nice flavor. There was a hoisin sauce as well which added a sweet/savory flavor, and the "sausage" is actually a hotdog, so I was a little disappointed that it wasn't a Chinese sausage. Still though, the portion size was pretty good and I was very content with the volume of food in this order. It isn't the perfect 5/5, but it's a solid 4/5 for a delicious bite to eat under $10. I'll definitely be getting this again!

There are some tables and chairs if you want to hang out here. Limited street parking out front. There are metered parking on the side street next to the green line.

I've never heard of Ever Spring Green Tea before, so I opted for that instead of my usual jasmine or oolong milk tea. First impression, tastes interestingly like a watered down coffee creamer? But you can also taste the essence of tea. It's smooth in flavor and subtle in sweetness. I like the flavor of the golden boba (honey boba), although the texture of this particular batch is semi hard in its core. If it was cooked better, I definitely would love it more. I would come back to try more drinks!
