I finally got over to Tatte Bakery and Cafe, something I’ve been meaning to do for ages.
At 1:30 on a Sunday, the cafe was out of many menu items, not surprising with the line to the door. Tatte's popularity is well deserved. It’s like stepping into a little piece of Europe with its rustic furniture and decor. Old-fashioned baskets hold packages of fabulous-looking baked goods. The menu offers several breakfast/brunch dishes as well as a variety of lunch sandwiches.
My friend and I managed to find a seat at a counter after ordering. Our deliciously creamy and comforting lattes, made with Stumptown coffee, arrived almost immediately, followed quickly by our breakfast sandwiches.
My avocado sandwich came with tomato, feta, and eggs done perfectly over-easy on toasted brioche. The soft, tasty brioche was the best part.
Sophie’s Croque Monsieur was on brioche instead of the usual croissant, as they had run out. She described it as "biting into a cloud," so no great loss.
I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu and to indulge in some of those baked goods! Tatte also has locations in Cambridge and on Beacon Hill.
