Blue Bottle Coffee — Restaurant in Boston

A very good experience ordering with the IOS App, Staff, speed of service, & coffee quality.

Location Blue-Bottle-Coffee Copley Place's location is very busy with long lines - So download the the IOS APP to skip the line.

The App: It is very easy to order on it, just select item, add to cart, pay, & your coffee will be ready in minutes.

To pick-up: Just go to the pick-up area behind the baristas prep station & wait for your coffee if it is not already there. No need to ask staff just wait for it, they will call out your name, or place it there with a receipt underneath.

Staff & Service: They were busy but still answer question in a friendly manner (pointed me to the pick-up area). However, don't expect conversation. So They were very pleasant and professional.

The Coffee-Product: "Uganda Nebbi White Nile Natural " Coffee

Pro: You can tell right away this is a high quality coffee. It was tasty with a slight & sweet bitterness taste to it( without sugar). Yes the app recommended to order it without milk for better taste & I agree. It has no strong coffee smell (i, e the other guy - Pike Roast ) . With one cup you don't get the instant caffeine high you would get with Pike roast. So this is a great alternative to slowly reduce your coffee addiction instead of going cold turkey.

Con: Coffee size was only 12oz (too small for the price) for $5.35(tax included & no tip).

My Coffee was slightly above warm temperature but not Hot enough & got cold really quick.

The store/cafe needs better & bolder readable signs i, e PICK_UP AREA, LINE_START_HERE, etc .

Overall - Blue Bottle Coffee is for a unique niche, It's never gonna be a Starbucks Killer. So I do recommend if you...

I am a tourist curious about what looked like great cafes in this building. Never been but Blue bottle sounds like a place I had heard about. Looks like a nice hangout with long queues, unfortunately it has disappointing coffee. I think I gave them a fair chance. Ordered a regular specialty winter espresso in a latte, was charged $8 for what turned out to be a 12 ounce latte. Didn’t ask for 12 ounces but I wouldn’t have minded if it was good and they knew what they were doing. I think an 8 ounce would have been just right since I think they only gave me a single meh shot. As I tasted potential, I decided to give them a chance and had to queue up to order another shot to add to my cup. They charged me an additional $2.86. Put it in. I have now paid $10.86 for a 12 ounce latte that smells good but tastes meh. I am quite disappointed. Earlier in the day, we visited a black looking roastery cafe on the other side of the building near Marriott and I ordered their regular specialty latte. They made me pay $5-6 for a smaller cup and it was a very balanced flavorful specialty latte at a very pretty cafe with couches and tables. I had been concerned that the barista would give me a bland cup but he assured me he had given me a stronger cup by instinct. it was tasty with citrus notes. Recommend the black other cafe that is not blue bottle when you are at Copley/ Prudential. They know what...

Blue Bottle Coffee at the Prudential Center is one of the best spots in Boston if you care about high quality coffee. The drinks here are consistently excellent. They offer a great variety, from single origin drip coffee to freshly brewed cups and of course a full menu of espresso based drinks. Everything tastes rich, smooth, and crafted with care. They also serve matcha and have a nice selection of pastries if you want something to snack on alongside your drink. For anyone who likes making coffee at home, they sell their coffee bags here as well, which makes it easy to bring the same quality home with you.

The only thing to keep in mind is that it is almost always busy. This location draws a big crowd and there is often a line. If you are looking for a quick in and out experience this might not be the place for you. If you do not mind waiting, the payoff is absolutely worth it because the coffee is some of the best around.

Overall Blue Bottle Coffee at the Prudential Center is a must visit for coffee lovers. The quality is excellent, the variety is wide, and the atmosphere has that bustling energy that makes it feel like part of the city’s rhythm. It is the kind of café you go to when you want more than just caffeine, you want a cup that has been prepared with...
