The people working there were really nice and let us eat there until 8. It is cute inside, with limited seating. They also have picnic tables outside. They sell wine, pasta, sauces, coffee beans, ice cream, etc. some from local companies/vendors. It's a fun place to browse. Their chicken sandwiches are good, but I always get a bowl with either chicken thighs or steak. They have excellent sauces and the food here is really good, albeit a bit on the saltier side. The clam chowder is nice and hearty. I also really like their drinks, including the strawberry rhubarb one and the lemonade.

Their fried chicken sandwiches can all be made with plant-based chicken, which suits my current situation. I had the Street Corn Chicken Torta (G, D) with the plant-based chicken and it was fantastic. My potato salad side was excellent too. They had a lot of orders up with folks coming in constantly. Such a cute building also. Great place, and the staff were super nice as well.

Seems mostly Thai (noodles) and Japanese (ramen), but some Chinese as well, with blurring involved on some of the dishes. Smack Bun: Basically an Asian take on a pulled pork sandwich. Cha-shu pork in a soft bao bun with crunchy vegetables and okonomi sauce very similar to a tangy sweet barbecue sauce. Nice that you can order them individually instead of committing to a set of three or so. Crispy Brussels Sprouts: A small serving with small pieces, lots of batter per piece and fried garlic integrated, but very light and brittle, so not too heavy. Good flavor, aided by the ginger sauce. Just not much sprout here. Crazy Noodle: Very soft flat rice noodles with an assortment of vegetables led by carrot and broccoli, tossed with protein of choice (I went chicken) in a spicy basil sauce that had some light sweetness for balance. Very enjoyable. Promising first visit. Hoping to try more menu items from the different categories to find their strengths.

The ramen really hit the spot, and I honestly wanted to order another round of smack buns but had to control myself.

When I came in at 10:30 on a Saturday, and there was plenty of seating available, mostly inside but also a few tables outside. We ordered at the counter and I got a pastry and an Americano with hazelnut syrup. The pastry they served right there and the drinks were prepared at the other end of the counter. I waited about 5 minutes for my Americano and when it came it was with a different syrup than the one I had ordered. The barista said they were out of that syrup, but I was a little annoyed that they didn't just ask me what I wanted instead - I was standing right there after all. But that is my one small complaint. The barista was nice about remaking it with the replacement syrup of my choice so it wasn't a huge deal. To eat, I got the peach danish. It was very yummy! It didn't taste exactly freshly baked so I can't give five stars but it was still nicely crisp and buttery with a good amount of filling. My friend is gluten-free and unfortunately there weren't a lot of options for her, but the raspberry square she got she said was very good. My Americano was also yummy and not too bitter. Just a note that by 10:30 the pastry case already had quite a few sold out items so that's something to keep in mind if you come later in the day for a sweet treat. In my opinion Maynard is lacking in cute cafes so I'm glad to know Boston Bean House is an option with decent food and drinks! I do want to come back to try their sandwiches too.

For my main, I ordered the Khao Gai Yang, a dish with chicken, rice, veggies, and a sauce on the side. The chicken was juicy and well seasoned. My only complaint is that the sauce was quite fishy, which isn't to my personal taste. I would come back but try something else next time.

They only serve breakfast and lunch, and they close early (2 pm weekdays). The staff, from the hostess to the servers, were all very friendly. Nice to see smiles again in a restaurant! I loved the maple margarita. Perfect balance of sweet and salty. The food came out hot and nicely plated. Do not miss the smashed potatoes, the veggie hash, and the freshly squeezed juices. All are delicious. My omelette was jam packed with all kinds of veggies. The only negative is that it is very loud inside and can be hard to hear your own conversation. If I lived close by, I would be a regular.

The Breakfast Daughter has become a tradition for my family whenever we have something special to…read morecelebrate. I've been here for both of my sisters' graduation brunches, and we always leave happy. It's become one of our favorite spots for a celebratory brunch. For drinks, I tried their new Vanilla Bean Matcha Latte with oat milk. It was a bit thicker than I expected--possibly because of the oat milk. I can definitely see some people loving that texture, but for me it was just okay. That said, it was still a good drink, and the hint of vanilla came through nicely without overpowering the matcha. For food, we ordered a variety of dishes for the table. 1. The chicken and waffles had so much flavor, and the poached eggs were cooked perfectly--not too runny, but still soft, gooey, and delicious. The chicken was a little soggy, but it made up for it by being incredibly tender. 2. The blueberry pancake was fantastic. Their pancake portions are huge, so this time we only ordered one to share. It was delicious, though definitely on the heavier side. 3. The house burger was easily the standout dish of the meal and might be my favorite item on the menu. It's simple and classic, but packed with flavor. 4. The chicken burger, on the other hand, was disappointing. The chicken was quite dry, and I probably wouldn't order it again. I think something like pickled onions or another acidic topping could help bring some balance and moisture to the sandwich. 5. We also tried the omelet, which was very good, especially with the goat cheese. What really made the experience special was that the staff noticed we were celebrating a graduation and surprised us with complimentary donuts. It was such a thoughtful gesture and a lovely way to end the meal.

We have been going here for around a decade, and unfortunately the quality of most of their baked…read moregoods and pastries has gone down significantly over the past couple years. Their bread is still some of the best around, and their staff are great. Ever since they rebuilt their entrance to be in the back, you have had a walk through a very unattractive alleyway that was used for trucks picking up the trash before it was converted to the entrance, and honestly, it has barely been converted. Today I got a chocolate chip cookie, and it was essentially flavorless. If you are looking for good bread, this is definitely your spot, but if you're trying to find anything else, I wouldn't necessarily recommend this **Replying to the owner** I seriously don't understand owners and employees on yelp who play victim when it comes to negative reviews. The customer had a negative experience, they describe it truthfully on yelp. Yes, the 3 star review negatively impacts the business, but ultimately, that's how reviews work, and you should take negative reviews as constructive criticism, and reply apologetically and constructively instead of being rude and defensive. As they say, customer is king. To your point that I didn't review your main menu focus sandwiches, despite your fact that a large portion of your building is dedicated to making bread, and no real area for putting together sandwiches. Either way, it wouldn't matter, the cookie I had was not great, and I reviewed accordingly. Responding to negative reviews in a defensive and rude way steers customers away from your establishment almost as much as a negative review does, if not more.

At my last visit, I went for the spicy cashews and vegetables with beef and rice, which was wonderful with many pieces of beef. I like to sometimes test myself with spicy foods to see what I can handle, which probably isn't a great deal, but this one was manageable and there were plenty of flavors in general. The atmosphere is nice and calming, it's never too loud or busy when I've been there. The service is very good but they also do takeout if that's what you need.
