I don’t think I’ve ever had a worse dining experience than the night I ate at Cobblestones in Beacon Hill. From the moment I walked in, something felt off, the entire staff gave a cold vibe and the place smelt like old mop water and fryer grease. I tried to brush it off until our food came out, and honestly, I wish I hadn't stayed. My dish was absolutely disgusting and tasted like it had been microwaved after sitting out all day. But the worst part? One of the staff members, who looked like they hadn’t showered in days, kept coughing into their hand and then touching people’s glasses and silverware like it was nothing. I was completely disgusted. I left feeling sick to my stomach and genuinely shocked they’re allowed to serve food at all. I wouldn’t step foot in that place again if you begged me.
I cannot respond to your previous response, I NEVER said anything about coming it for dinner, you’re disrespectful for calling my comment a spam this is my honest review for your disgusting business clearly it runs from the root. You should be taking my negative feedback this is why your business is failing and...
Read moreProof that most midlife crises do not result in Beacon Hill Books. -Incredibly overpriced. $14.20 for a breakfast sandwich. Could buy 6 eggs, a tomato, 6 bagels, and a lb of American for $8 at TJs. -average ingredients resulting in an average sandwich (premade, likely bought, fried eggs) -25 mins to prepare 1 sandwich, had to ask twice -poor layout, hospital aesthetic, people confused where the line is, no standing room to wait, premades placed after the order line -operate on the “Everyone’s does everything” philosophy for workers, likely unintentionally, because people are always asking for their orders after waiting for too long -owners walking around bossing the workers, who were genuinely nice -probably the type of owners who say “we couldn’t stay open if we didn’t work shifts” but clearly do not understand that they (and their system) are the problem
Ultimately a waste of an amazing space with outdoor dining. Cost of Tatte with the quality of Dunkin’ but way worse service, and that’s saying something. Can’t wait for this space to open up for an authentic...
Read moreOrdered an avocado toast at 12:48 on a Friday. Had to wait 15 minutes for it, while bursting for a pee, since as I discovered after ordering it, this place has no restrooms. Eventually it was ready, so I excitedly cut into the eggs, expecting luscious gooey egg yolk goodness to spread deliciousness all over my avocado toast. Instead, I was faced with the pictures rock hard disappointment. It’s ok, it happens to everyone I thought. I take the plate to the counter and politely ask if this is how the egg it was supposed to be. “Yes, is that ok?” the smiling lady at the counter said. “Sure” I replied, sadness evident in my voice. I mournfully made my way back to my table, where I proceeded to consume my disappointing lunch, made even worse by having to eat it with plastic utensils, when I could see other people with metal ones. I ended up using my hands, since the plastic utensils wouldn’t even cut through the bread, adding insult to injury. Two stars because the actual taste of the avocado toast was nice, it would have been great with...
