What's better than coffee and a pastry after a rainy Monday? Nothing. One of the many stores inside of the Shops at Copley Center, you'll find a nice coffee shop inside. With not that many people inside the bakery, it's a great place to get some coffee and get work done. Most of the customers there were working diligently on their laptops during my time there which gave me plenty of time to go over the items they had on display.
Once you grab a parchment paper lined tray, you walk around the different displays they have and choose what you like. Some of the items I saw were various croissants, castella, large cookies and Pain Au Chocolat to name a few.
They have quite the variety of drinks and you can take a look at some of their creative drinks on Instagram (@handsomebakery). I went with an iced coffee with tapioca pearls on the bottom.
Their house special coffee was good but it does come with cream and sugar; if you want something other than the standard, I'd inquire during your initial order. I remember the coffee-bubbles I've tried in Korea Town in NYC and they had pears in their coffee! I decided to try it again here and the employee behind the counter was great about it! If you come later in the day as I did, some of their items are sparse compared to I'm sure in the morning when everything is fresh. Since it's close to the apartment, I can't wait to make my next trip there to try their extensive menu.
