Boston's interesting but not heavy brunch-Cafe Landwer

đŸ„˜ Cafe Landwer: Boston’s Mediterranean Brunch Gem—Light, Flavorful, and Fabulous This spot took me by surprise—Mediterranean-inspired brunch that’s fresh, creative, and leaves you feeling energized (not stuffed). After a meal here, I had enough energy to hit the court; compare that to my last brunch, where I napped for hours. Trust me, that’s a win. 🌟 The Standouts Knafeh: 🍰 Order this first. If you loved Trader Joe’s frozen version, prepare to be wowed. Crispy, shredded phyllo-like layers top a creamy, mild cheese base, with a sprinkle of pistachios for crunch. It’s not overly sweet—just rich enough to feel indulgent, but light enough to finish after a full meal. We got the $11 combo with Turkish coffee (the coffee is fine, but the knafeh alone is worth it). Shakshuka: 🍳 A lighter take than Tatte or Milkweed’s versions—bright, tomatoey, and not weighed down by heavy spices. Served with warm pita (perfect for sopping up broth), it comes with a side salad tossed in a nutty peanut sauce that adds an unexpected, delicious twist. 😊 The Pleasant Surprises Pancakes: đŸ„ž Small but dense, with a texture that’s fluffy yet “rustic”—think bigger air pockets and a slightly grainy bite (reminded me of corn cakes, weirdly enough). Served with syrup, Nutella, and whipped cream, the cream pairing is best (cuts the sweetness nicely). Chicken Shawarma Pita: 🌯 Tender, spiced chicken wrapped in soft pita—my friend (who’s Indian) noted it has subtle “Indian spice vibes” (in a good way). Juicy, flavorful, and satisfying for a savory pick. ✹ Why It Works Balance: No dish is greasy, cloying, or “too much.” Even the sweeter items (pancakes, knafeh) feel intentional, not overwhelming. Vibe: Casual enough for a lazy weekend, but thoughtful enough to feel special. Budget Score: 4/5. Reasonable portions, with standout dishes that justify the price. Cafe Landwer is a great addition to Boston’s brunch scene. Whether you’re here for the knafeh, shakshuka, or a fluffy pancake, it delivers—no food coma required. 📍 Cafe Landwer 383 Chestnut Hill Ave, Boston, MA 02135 #BostonBrunch #MediterraneanFood #BrunchVibes
