"Wow, this cafe has the BEST grilled cheese sandwiches in all of Boston! Their coffee is also REALLY GOOD. I tried the iced latte made with the unique peanut butter and banana base, and it was absolutely delicious. The service was excellent. A huge shoutout to Tracy for being so kind and patient with us. Even with a small staff, they are incredibly efficient! The seating is comfortable and works well for a smaller space. Will be back soon for the awesome food and service! My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

"### Review: Bittersweet Shoppe on Newbury Street I recently stopped by Bittersweet Shoppe on Newbury Street for a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, and it was an absolute delight! The space is incredibly cute and charming, with a clever layout that maximizes seating in what could otherwise feel like a quirky, confined area. Somehow, they manage to fit everything in without making you feel like you're on top of your neighbors—it's cozy without being cramped, perfect for a quick bite or a relaxed coffee break. One standout feature is their gluten-free bread substitutions, which made it easy for my friend to customize her order. I went with the grilled cheese sandwich featuring bacon, dill pickles and it was perfection on a plate. The bread had a beautiful golden crust with just the right crunch, and the portions were spot-on—generous amounts of gooey cheese, crispy bacon, and tangy pickles that balanced each other beautifully without overwhelming the sandwich. Paired with a tasty cup of coffee that was smooth and not burnt at all, it hit the spot exactly as I needed. They also have a lot of great options on the menu, which makes it even more appealing. If you're strolling down Newbury Street and craving something comforting and well-executed, Bittersweet Shoppe is a gem worth visiting. I'd love to go back and try more—highly recommend! 5 out of 5 stars."

"TLDR: Coffee - 5⭐️ - Dark Roast drip was excellent! Food - 4.5⭐️ - Choc croissant, Apple danish, Blueberry muffin Review: Coffee here was very good, and they had a dark roast, not everywhere does. The food was very good, with a lot of choice. Overall, would recommend for coffee or food."

"Bittersweet Shoppe is definitely my favorite cafe in Back Bay! Staff is super nice and the atmosphere is cute, great outdoor space too right on Newbury St. Their breakfast sandwiches are delicious (I like to sub the croissant with an English muffin) and come with a side of fruit, perfect for a little breakfast picnic. Their grilled cheese sandwiches are perfectly cooked and taste amazing. Their banana cream pie and coconut cream pie overnight oats are both fantastic and I can’t wait to keep trying more from their menu. So happy to have found this local small business!!"

"Super cute lil cozy shoppe vibe! Great customer service & delicious food. I ordered the dill pickle grilled cheese (with no bacon) served with chips. 10/10 loaded with cheese and the sourdough was grilled to perfection!"
