Excellent location for brunch while exploring Downtown Boston. Full Halal menu. Ordered the breakfast burger and Classic breakfast plate. Both things were very good. Mocha latte was excellent but the iced latte was a little light and watery

I stopped into Cafe 26 to grab a coffee and a pastry during my trip in Boston. Staff was very friendly, efficient, and helpful. I was handed a menu upon entry and the lady who took my order was very sweet. Coffee was good and the chocolate croissant was very tasty. They also heated it up which I appreciate. Would recommend. Not very expensive, even though this is a very expensive city.

The food was incredible, and quick! Coffee is wonderful. However the service was above and beyond. The staff was so very amazing. I can't say enough. They were so nice to everyone that came in, and the waitress's was so sweet. Sometimes you just can't put into words what you feel in a place, and this is that place!

Came on a Thursday morning and breakfast was very good! We got the veggie omelette and Green Supreme sandwich. Both were flavorful and very filling. The home fries were soo good - big soft pieces of potato with delicious seasoning. Would definitely recommend for a casual, filling breakfast

Food was fragrant, fresh, and prepared quickly. Service was attentive, but not overbearing. Bread was fresh from the bakery, and coffee was excellent.

Service was fast, the food was delicious and the people were so kind! We stumbled on this place avoiding the crowds at another spot and this has been my favorite meal of my vacation to date!

Great place! We were visiting from out of town and staying across the street. The first day we popped in hoping to get a quick on the go breakfast, and we weren't disappointed! The food was made quickly and we were able to get on our way. Everything was so fresh. Second day we came back to dine in and also had a great, filling meal. Service was excellent. Will go back if in the area!

Cafe 26 did exactly what it was supposed to do. I woke up fairly early last Sunday morning after a bit of bourbon the night before. A breakfast sandwich was clearly in order. I was staying in an area in the middle of pretty much everything, so it wasn't hard to locate an establishment within a block that had what I needed. I side-eyed a brunchy bougie place on the corner but decided it was too high maintenance for the occasion (and it felt naughty to go in there in my sweats). This didn't require a bunch of fanfare; eggs and cheese were the only pre-requisites. This isn't so much a formal sit-down restaurant as much as a breakfast deli counter situation with a handful of tables to sit at. It's very no-frills and reminded me of a lot of the bodega/delis in NYC (I spent most of the weekend comparing neighborhoods and features to NYC - North End/West Village, etc.). I may be mistaken, but I definitely got a Mediterranean/halal vibe from the establishment, especially given some of the menu items. That said, the menu also prominently featured exactly what I was looking for. I ordered two egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches (one for my top-tier chum who literally went to the school of hospitality), as well as a chocolate croissant to split. The full order was provided in less than five minutes, and the service was efficient/courteous. No issues at all. Both sandwiches were consumed happily a few minutes thereafter. Decent portions and perfect for the situation. Most of my reviews go on for pages and pages, but this is a rare instance where there's not much to say. Breakfast sandwiches were required, they were provided, and they were very good.

Cafe 26 is a great last minute brunch find if you're looking to eat downtown. This restaurant is located near the downtown crossing T stop and there is usually little to no wait. The ambiance is medium casual and there's a wide variety of brunch options on the menu. The inside is a little crowded so I wouldn't recommend going in a group more than 3. The food quality is medium, but it's worth the price. I tried the chicken melt, which came with a side salad. I enjoyed the portion and the flavor was good with the aioli. My mocha latte tasted really good and there was really pretty art on top! Also, our waiter was really nice and service was really quick. Additionally, they take Apple Pay and can split the check easily.

I almost did not eat here, but I am so happy I did. The food was fantastic and the service was so fast! They offer a wide variety of breakfast items. They were a little expensive, but I found it to be worth it. My western omelette was so tasty and cheesy ( a must for an omelette). The pancakes were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. The potatoes came from a well seasoned grill! You can taste it. I was a little upset when they left the door open to air out the smoke from a burnt meal, it was 20 degrees out! I was freezing while I was eating. Besides this minute detail, I was very satisfied with my meal from this tiny eatery.
