Boston brunch must-see collection (1)
☕️ Boston Brunch Roundup: Hits, Misses, and a Major Red Flag Brunch in Boston is all about cozy vibes, bold flavors, and (sometimes) long lines—but not all spots are worth the hype. Here’s the tea on three spots, including one you should definitely skip. ❌ Cafe Bonjour: DO NOT GO. I ate here nearly 10 times—even brought every visiting friend. It’s always packed (lines move fast, 30-minute waits max), and I’ve tried almost everything: Their Benedict, steak brunch, and crepes were once must-orders (6 stars—huge portions, delicious). The French toast (5 stars) and thick, filling smoothies (4 stars) were solid too. But: The staff is aggressively rude. They yelled at customers, acted discriminatory, and were openly hostile. No amount of good food justifies that. Save your time—and your peace. ✅ Cafe Landwer: A Pleasant Surprise. This spot blew me away. Their shakshuka (6 stars!) comes with the best pita in Boston—thin, soft, and fragrant, with a secret spice blend that’s addictive. Dipping it into the rich, tomatoey egg stew? Perfection. Roasted Eggplant: 4 stars. Unique, but salty—skip if you’re sensitive to heavy flavors. Benedict: 4 stars. Good, but not as good as Cafe Bonjour’s (before the attitude). Still, worth ordering. 😐 Cafe Savage: Meh. Skip it if you can. Crepe: 4 stars. Pretty for photos, but overly sweet—tastes like sugar overload. Benedict: 3 stars. Generic, no standout flavor. African Special Drink: 1 star. Tastes like a jumbled fruit juice—definitely not for everyone. 📍 Final Takes Avoid Cafe Bonjour—rudeness ruins even great food. Run to Cafe Landwer for shakshuka and life-changing pita. Skip Cafe Savage—there are better brunch spots. #BostonBrunch #FoodieFails #HiddenGems
