    Egg tarts
    Anita L.

    New bakery that caught my eye because of the gorgeous egg tarts! There's an order kiosk in the front and a few small tables. They also have lattes. They're running a special of buy 2 egg tarts and get 1 free. It didn't show up as free on the kiosk so I just asked them about it separately but the cashier asked for us to put it on the kiosk next time so they can keep track of their sales- I guess next time, let them know the third one isn't coming up as free before paying? I ordered a hot HK milk tea and it was very strong tea flavor and not too sweet. I like my milk tea a little creamier and sweeter but this would be good for someone who prefers the strong black tea flavor. We ordered the blueberry, taro, and soy milk egg tarts. All of them have the egg base on the bottom topped with the flavored cream. The soy milk and taro both had some mochi on the bottom. My favorite was the soy milk, and the taro tasted the sweetest out of the 3. The shell is basically flaky croissant, so a little different than normal egg tarts but still good! The bagels were really interesting- some had osmanthus and the other had rose fermented rice. It's definitely a unique offering!

    Extremely disappointing. I really don't know how Google Maps users gave it a 4.7? Bostonians, please eat something better... Caramel Cheese Croissant Tart: My top pick before trying it, I'd give it 4 out of 5. The cheese filling was molten and fragrant, but the downside was that it dripped all over my hands... the filling was way too watery and runny!!! The tart was cold, and the crust was hard and dry. Taro Mochi Milk Egg Tart: The crust was even thicker, cold, and hard, a common problem with petal-shaped tarts. But the more serious problem was its extreme blandness; the sweetness was almost entirely from the taro and glutinous rice itself, which greatly diminishes the aroma. Classic Milk Egg Tart: To be honest, by this point I had lost all desire to eat the crust. The filling was also completely not sweet enough, with no egg or milk aroma.

    I keep coming back for the ube gelato! So creamy and flavorful. The staff is always nice and the environment is quiet.

    Visited Le Cafe Bakery on 06/29/2026 after deciding not to eat another cafe spot in the area. I visited Le Cafe due to following up on a TikTok post that gave good reviews regarding Le Cafe. I placed an order using the kiosk there. I was in high hopes for the food to be delicious because the food reviews and images advertised it well. It wasn't too busy for a Monday afternoon. It was a quiet atmosphere. However after trying the food and drinks I can honestly say I probably won't be returning. I paid $43.00 just for few items and it was underwhelming to say the least. I took one tiny sip from my drink and asked to have it swapped for something that I would enjoy only to have been given a hard time about swapping the drinks & the drink I wanted it changed for couldn't be made & so after a while of pleading for a different drink , I asked for something else and it was just as gross as the first drink I tried. I swapped it for a caramel latte. Their beverages choices are minimal so if you're wanting to try something new I suggest not getting a drink if you're not 100% if you're going to like it . The drinks are all almost the same price ($7.25-7.55) , there's also an additional charge for iced drinks ? I had the hot ham and cheese and it wasn't "hot" at all. My partner got the other croissant and it also wasn't that great. The tiramisu egg tart was flavorless. Honestly not entirely happy with paying $43.00 for something I didn't entirely enjoy.

    Interior--has the 3 chairs by the window and two sets of four-seater tables

    The interior of the store was a pleasant surprise--quiet, clean, cozy. Having the choice of kiosk vs ordering directly was nice! The cashier greeted me right when I got in and was patient with my indecisive scrolling through the kiosk. Everything about the service and ambiance was great!! Loved that there was such an extensive array of drinks and baked goods! I got the rose bagel and cocoa chocolate with added boba, and my friend got the osmanthus jasmine milk tea and taro mochi bagel. Both of us agreed the drinks were a bit too unsweetened; my friend's osmanthus jasmine tea had good floral presence, but my cocoa drink lacked rich chocolatey depth and the boba was definitely subpar considering all the boba options around us in Chinatown. We both also agreed the bagels were super creative but lacked flavor and didn't have the bouncy texture of well-made bagels. Will be back to try other drinks and see if they're any better!

    Iced Ice Matcha Jasmine Tea, Strawberry Matcha Milk, and Hojicha Latte

    Very cute and cozy cafe-bakery. Drinks were just the right amount of sweetness. The Classic Custard Egg Tart and Matcha Egg Tart were so yummy we ordered a few more sweet treats to try (the Tiramisu Egg Tart and Chocolate Kumquat Croissant), which were equally as delicious! Will definitely come back next time for the ice cream flavors

    Iced Rose Lychee Milk with Sweet Rice Wine
    Melanie W.

    I tried two drinks already, and both are great. Strawberry Frappuccino tastes way better than Starbucks. Iced rose lychee milk with sweet rice wine was refreshing with a strong lychee taste. The bagels are beautiful, but more on the sweet side than savory. I ordered a pistachio bagel. Don't expect the bagel to be hot, but still soft. I will come back, but I'm still 3 minutes away from work. I wish there were a hot pastry.

    Plain bagel with blueberry cream cheese
    Boston Veg Eats ..

    Le Cafe Bakery on Kneeland Street ended up being one of those places we walked into casually and then kept talking about after. The space is small but really cozy, with a warm vibe that makes you want to sit down and actually enjoy what you ordered instead of rushing out. We tried a few of their tarts and honestly, that's where this place really shines. The Dubai chocolate tart was the standout for me. It had that rich, layered texture you expect, but what I liked most was that it didn't feel overly sweet or gimmicky. It actually delivers on the hype. The ube cheesecake tart was also really well done. The ube flavor felt authentic, not artificial, and the cheesecake was smooth and balanced. It's also just a really pretty dessert. The caramel cheesecake croissant tart was definitely the most indulgent. Flaky pastry, creamy filling, and caramel that tied everything together without overpowering it. It's the kind of thing you keep going back for another bite of. For anyone vegan, the plain bagel is a good option -- fresh, chewy, and simple but well made. Some of the spreads are vegetarian rather than vegan, but the staff were friendly and happy to help clarify options. Overall, everything felt thoughtfully made, not rushed or mass-produced. If you're in downtown Boston and want something a little different from the usual bakery options, this place is definitely worth stopping by. We ended up making a reel about this spot on Instagram @bostonvegeats since we focus on vegetarian-friendly places around Boston.

    Le Cafe & Bakery is a smaller, welcoming cafe located right on the edge of Chinatown, making it a convenient spot to duck into. We stopped by in the afternoon when it wasn't too busy, though more people did trickle in as we stayed. The space has multiple tables and, a real bonus, plenty of charging ports at the seats, which makes it a genuinely good place to settle in and study or just relax in the area. We tried two drinks: an oolong tea and a matcha. The oolong was pretty good, it had a clear, nice taste and didn't feel watered down or overpowered by sweetness. The matcha was a standout; it had a strong, authentic matcha flavor that actually complemented the strawberry really well. The one thing that took us by surprise was that they blended the matcha drink, which we weren't expecting. It was more of a texture shock than anything, but it didn't hurt the taste or consistency at all. It's a solid, low-key option in the neighborhood for a quality matcha or other drink, especially if you're looking for a place to post up for a bit.

    Taro Mochi Egg Tart Ube Matcha
    Nicole T.

    Tried out this hidden gem in Chinatown! Their taro mochi egg tart was PHENOMENAL when heated - definitely will be trying the others soon. The ube matcha was just okay - I've had better matchas and unfortunately couldn't taste the ube as much as I'd like (but it was very pretty)

    Got there 930am. No pastry is available so dont open if pastry is not ready til one hour after!!! This really pissed off!!!! This drink pissed me off too! They didn't caramelized the foam for my creme Brulee Latte!!!! Don't sell it if you didn't do it correctly!!!!! A guy walk in at 935am using the kiosk ordering his pastry. He paid, and when the lady got his order, the lady that work there tell him pastry IS NOT READY AFTER 1 HOUR!!!! That's beyond unacceptable!!!

    I dropped by bright and early at 9am on my way to work to grab a drink and a quick bite. I was really looking forward to trying their hojicha lava bun but unfortunately they didn't have any in stock? I settled on a lychee cream cheese bagel and a strawberry matcha latte. The latte was solid though I could do with just a bit more/stronger matcha. The bagel was just ok. I will say that it's nice that they toasted it but the lychee taste was too light and barely distinguishable in the cream cheese and the bagel itself was mediocre at best. I'll likely give them another shot just to try their lava buns but pass on the bagels.

Cold, delicious, and just the right amount of chaotic fun... it was wicked good.

We came for dinner and I got the turkey and brie sandwich. The brie melted in your mouth and paired perfectly with the crunchy vegetables and turkey in the sandwich. There was also a layer of fruit jam which created a salty sweet combination that was delicious. I also shared a warm custard bread pudding for dessert with a friend (be aware that you have to order this 30 minutes ahead as they bake it fresh!) which was so yummy - it was quite sweet but gooey and a lovely mixture of caramel flavors that paired nicely with the vanilla gelato. Prices are on the higher side but align with the attention that is paid to each plate! They have a super cute bookstore next to the cafe which is fun to browse. The set-up is within three stories of a house and the decor/design inside is very cozy - definitely worth checking out. On the third floor children's section there is a toy train that periodically circles the top of the room which is a fun touch too!

The wonderful waitress, Sabrina, saved this from being a one star review. First the food. You pay $15 on the kids menu for literally a scrambled egg on an unbuttered piece of toast. Nothing else on the plate. The $24 breakfast is two scrambled eggs on white toast with a few cherry tomorrows on top and a side of small meatball-looking turkey sausages. I was shocked, but since I was with my child, I didn't want to say a thing. There is absolutely NOTHING on this menu worth the cost or experience. Also, they do not pour the tea and if you ask for milk (typically served with dark teas) the waiter gives you impatient side-eye. The cafe has everything, EVERYTHING which could really make it a spectacular experience, and I can say that I will never go again or recommend. Get a muffin and coffee/tea at Tatte or Flour Bakery and skip this cafe and go straight to the book store. The bookstore is a joy.
