They take your order at the counter and then you take a table number and they bring your food and drinks out to your table when it's ready. Whole milk cortado and regular drip coffee were both solid, though nothing special. They use ceramic mugs when you order your drinks for-here which is always better than paper cups. The pao de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) is pleasantly chewy on the inside and toasty on the outside. We got two breakfast sandwiches, which were both really good, just a little pricey for the volume.
Healthy, organic, ingenious designs and recipes catering to all categories of individual preferences. I appreciated their flavors and if I ever found myself in the Boston area I would come back 100% and take everyone with me. Thank you bom dough. You are the bom
Loveee, this is one of my favorite cafes in the area! Vibes are great, drinks are good, and pão de queijo is to die for. There is a lot of seating here, although it's important to note that they have a no screens policy on the weekend. You order at the counter and if you are eating in the cafe, they will bring your food to your table. The pão de queijo is soooo good. Chewy, but not too dense, and lightly crisp on the outside. Plus, for folks with dietary restrictions, it's gluten free! I have liked all the flavors (guava dip is fire) but my favorite is the garlic pão de queijo grilled cheese with tomato soup!
Some of the best iced coffee I've ever had and a really great breakfast sandwich too. It's maybe a little bit pricy for a quick grab-and-go kinda breakfast but I and a friend sat down and enjoyed our food and coffee at a seat by the window and it was great for that. Service was great. We ordered our stuff at the counter and then sat down and they brought everything right over to us. The layout of the restaurant itself felt a little unorganized with the ordering counter on one side of the space and the food kitchen on the other which is fine except that service staff were then running all over the place and getting up from our table to grab a napkin or go to the bathroom felt like we were always in someone's way. Overall great though and I definitely want to go again some time to try the other food and drinks!
Bōm dough is a favorite cafe of mine to frequent. The staff are lovely, the service is quick, and although it is noisy from chatter, the cafe's natural lighting and greenery create a peaceful atmosphere. For those who are gluten free, they offer pão de queijo (cheesy Brazilian rolls) as a yummy bread swap. I ordered the wicked brisket sandwich with pão de queijo. This was an oily combination, but the arugula and tomato helped balance it out. Very tasty! To pair with, I got a strawberry matcha latte. They did a great job of maintaining the slight bitter/nutty flavor of matcha with the drink's sweetness.
Crack Chicken-- 8.5/10 This sandwich on the brazilian bread was soooo goood. I want to go back just for the bread. Soft and chewy. Crack chicken sauce was delicious. Iced Latte- 6.5/10 The latte was alright. I wouldnt go back here for the coffee. Bitter and just average It was super busy inside when I went on a sunday morning. Lots of tables to sit. Ambiance was good Tip: line was super long when I passed by, i ordered ahead online parked and food was ready pretty fast!
Smallish portions for the price, but solid food. My favorite thing about it is the local feel, it's something unique for the area that no one else is doing, and they do a good job of bringing culture to the area. Service was great, the cashier was very sweet and had great recommendations. It was pretty busy at around 9:45 on a sunday, but I'd assume it's less busy most other times. The food was good, just a little underwhelming for the price. The Good Egg sandwich was really good, as the arugula and lime avocado balanced out the cheese and egg. The bacon was absolutely insane. We also got the Ace breakfast. My only complaint here is that the Muenster cheese doesn't melt super well, and in combination with the pão de quiejo, it felt very heavy/oily after a while. I feel like a different cheese would be great in these sandwiches, just to let the bread shine a little more. The Pão de quiejo itself was OK, just a little underdone (which I think is because it's a bigger version of the small ones). The Doce de leite pão were really good, but I almost felt like they had too much doce de leite inside (in proportion to the bread). I'm not sure but I think it's still cheese bread, which actually works really well with the sweetness of the filling. I also got a doce de leite iced latte which very very very good, and worth the $5+. Overall, definitely try the bacon, at least one of the pãos, and the coffee, which are all very high quality.
Ordered takeout and got the crack chicken sandwich as well as the brigadeiro cookie. The sandwich was tasty but small, similar to my prior experience here, the sandwich portions are definitely petite. The cookie on the other hand was huge and delicious. Overall I would recommend for people to try this place because the food is tasty, but I wouldn't go regularly as the value for portion size just isn't there.
Dining method: Dine-in Item(s) ordered: doce de leite pão, guava pão, The Catch, Avocado and Egg plus pesto, cappuccinos Speed: Food came out in about 20-30 minutes, the place was super busy Value: Prices are reasonable, maybe a bit high for the small sizes but I'll pay for good food. The Review: BŌM dough isn't kidding. It's definitely is very good (bōm). On top of the delicious eats, the café itself is airy, light, and modern inside. Makes for a whole experience while munching on this twist on a Brazilian classic, pão de queijo. We were really blown away by how good the pão were, from savory all the way to sweet. Their coffee was a nice addition to our spread. Way to go! We will 1000% be back.
This is not a drill...I was brought to the absolute best breakfast meal I've ever had. Talk about unique, satisfying, quality, and aesthetic. This was our first stop on our way to Harvard and I hardly could decide on what to get. My friend got the Mochi Berry Waffle, added a side of potatoes, and an oat milk ice coffee. I ultimately got the breakfast combo which came with a choice of pao bread (I remember there was a basic, garlic, and guava), scrambled eggs, and thick sliced bacon. I also ordered a pistachio matcha latte. You order at the counter and choose your table. We got the window table at the smaller dining area. It was completely empty when we began and it was very quiet. But this place fills up quickly! So make sure you get there early to find parking and have the ultimate breakfast. The pao bread was heeeeavvvvyy in weight and light in sweetness. Filled with guava jam of some sort, chewy mochi like bread, crispy outside. The scrambled eggs were perfect and a great portion. And the bacon. OMG the bacon was thick cut, perfectly cooked, more like pork jerky coated in a caramelization of the bacon fat. My type of bacon. The matcha latte was quite sweet. I think it was the pistachio, which I'm not certain but it seems like they use the pump flavored syrups. So that's probably where the sweetness came from. Overall added to the meal and it was the perfect breakfast for my last day in Boston.
