Crema's Take
“This beloved Boston breakfast spot trades pretense for generous, craveable sandwiches that justify the early morning pilgrimage, especially their signature "Fancy" with silky avocado and perfectly cooked egg nestled in remarkably soft bread. The casual grab-and-go vibe pairs seamlessly with thoughtfully balanced options like their breakfast burrito, where every component—crispy hash browns, bright salsa, creamy guac—earns its place on the plate. It's the kind of place that turns an icy morning walk into a memory, where quality ingredients and straightforward execution win over flash every time.”

My lovely partner and I took an early morning stroll here one icy morning for breakfast and that painfully cold walk was worth the trouble for this meal. My partner ordered the Fancy, I ordered the Grilled Crack (names are a bit silly lol) and this was the best breakfast sandwich I've ever eaten in my life. 10 stars. Would go back and eat this again without hesitation.
Very good sandwich, very tasty. I had the Fancy, the avocado and egg were delicious, I really enjoyed it. (PS : the picture show the half of the sandwich, the other half was already gone)
We got the breakfast burrito and the fancy. So good! The breakfast burrito was perfectly balanced with hash browns, salsa, guac and eggs. The sandwich was good too! The bread was so soft.
Breakfast Grilled Crack sandwich was fine to feed you with some calories but to me this wasn’t the food to enjoy. The flavours were very plan, there wasn’t too much bacon and it was overcooked, the cheese was tasteless, and overall the sandwich was soaking in oil. It was made fine and the price quality ratio is reasonable but it’s neither healthy nor food to enjoy. I wouldn’t recommend this spot. The staff were friendly
So I was in the mood for a hearty breakfast option early on Saturday and the other options around that area were either closed or only took cash. I ordered the “crack” and I sort of regret it. For me, WAY too much meat. In fact for the second half of the sandwich I opened up and removed most of the meat. If I was going to go back I would definitely order their basic breakfast sandwich. That being said the egg portion of the sandwich was REALLY well cooked. Seasoned nicely, and the yolk nice and jammy but not too runny as to make a huge mess when you bite into it (not that I mind that particularly but it is very messy). I also ordered a hash brown and that was definitely the biggest disappointment. Sub McDonalds offering. You can get much better hash browns at any Dunks, and that’s not a high bar. But still the eggs and bread were really nice and I would definitely consider coming back and just getting their basic sandwich. The crack was way too heavy and the bacon wasn’t crispy.
