It was a surprisingly nice place. We came here for dinner, they had a breakfast menu, a lunch menu that was available until they close in the evening and a dinner menu. We ordered a loaded tater tots it had a different name, I don't remember, and I chose the fried chicken sandwich at this point I'm on a mission to find the best fried chicken sandwich in Boston, I eat it wherever I can from the lunch menu, my husband eat a shakshuka. We really liked everything: the tots with chicken were amazing; the chicken sandwich had apples, and the sauce tasted really nice, it wasn't dry at all; and the shakshuka was nice too. We will definitely go back for breakfast.
This is a top-notch brunch spot: great food, good coffee, good and usually fast service, affordable, and with a sweet cafe vibe. I’ve been back several times and tried about half the menu, and everything is good! You can’t go wrong. The french toast and power bowl stand out as favorites.
Milkweed was absolutely incredible! It was my first dining experience on my trip to Boston and man was it awesome! Milkweed had a large and diverse menu. The people at my table got a buffalo chicken burrito, a breakfast platter, a salad, and a muffin! Everything was exceptional! They were extremely busy but the service was great and so was the food! If you go, you must try Holly’s muffin! They feature a different muffin all the time and it is GRILLED!!! It was so delicious! I would return just for the muffin!
Came here for a nice short breakfast and it didn’t disappoint!! The service was great, the food coming out super fast and it was warm and delicious too. I got the chocolate chip pancakes and not only were the three pancakes warm and fresh, they perked me up for my day!
We made reservations and got there for that time. however, when we arrived we were told it would be an additional 40 min due to 5 other parties checking in before us. Once we were finally able told our table was ready the host at the door sat a different party at our table. I will say, beside the initial frustration regarding our reservation and seating the food was good, it presented well and the portion sizes was adequate. We all ordered pomegranate mimosas and each of them looked and tasted differently.
Went for the morning madness and corn beef hash. What a blast! Drink is ok but Food is great. The catch is the long wait. If you want to skip the crazy line, make it a takeout and eat from the park across the street. Skipped almost 2 hours of waiting where you can enjoy the morning, the food and the company.
Overall I would have to say this place wasn't bad. The food was good some additional salt was needed but overall I left full and happy. The only thing I would say the only thing I found annoying was service, seeing by the time my party was seated the restaurant was pretty much empty. Would I go back? Yes it was a chill neighborhood spot.
I love this place! The only reason I am giving them 4 stars is the wait-time they have . They don't have an option to reserve table earlier, you need to add yourself to waitlist but the waitlist time is not accurate, it keeps changing very frequently and there might be times your table will be ready 20mins earlier or it might take more 30 mins. But they are pretty fast in serving dishes once you are seated. I must tell you, their Falafel shakshuka is yummilicious. We also had their strawberry Nutella French toast and that was good but I have had better ones at other places. I would definitely recommend this place and would go again.
LOVE milkweed. I live close by and have gone like twice a month ever since discovering. My boyfriend and I love going on brunch dates here - we have never gotten anything we didn’t like. Will def be coming back again and again and again!
Was positively surprised by the variety of options on the breakfast menu. Everything I got was fresh and well-presented. Highly recommend the shakshouka. We came at a busy hour so it took a little time to be served, but it was worth it.Dine in: Yes
