Trident Booksellers & Cafe - Cafe in Boston - 338 Newbury St, USA

Trident was so much fun that this was perhaps the only place in our 10-day itinerary in Boston that we repeated. They're cafe's menu is absolutely fantastic, and leaves you with just the right amount of options to choose from. The portions are great too, and so are their beverage options.

Pretty decent food. Came for late lunch on a Wednesday and it was packed! If there’s something I’d order again it would be the sweetpotato fries. The cafe and bookstore was bustling, probably because it’s Christmas week.

Looking for a spot to enjoy afternoon coffee or brunch with a book. This is the place to visit. They serve brunch, a good selection of coffee’s the cheesecake is a must try! The place gets really busy and packed at lunch time specially on the weekends. But nonetheless good place to eat and enjoy some reading. Before heading out you can check out their bookstore and at the center of the store there’s novelty items for gifting. The place is tight, it would be hard to get into the cafe with wheelchair or stroller.

I LOVE this bookstore! Great book selection, friendly and helpful staff, fun small gifts and stickers. The cafe has a great vibe - grab a seat at the counter and dive into your new book while you enjoy brunch. This is a neighborhood gem!

We were struggling to find good place for pancakes in Boston. There are places that serve pancakes, but they don't look very appetizing, if you know what I mean. This cafe was fantastic, though. It is neat, and clean, and has some fantastic food. Not only pancakes, but their French Toast is excellent as well. And the service was super friendly 😄 If we're back in Boston, we'd happily visit again.

This cafe & book store had a little something for everyone! My daughter wanted everything she saw…. And so did I. The steps inside are a great opportunity for a fun photo. We decided to dine while there and their hummus was some of the best I’ve had! Sometimes hummus can be grainy but this was so smooth and creamy with a great flavor profile. I got the pita triangles fried which adds a fun, crunchy, yet chewy texture. The muffin grilled was a big hit as well.

Great bookstore and awesome cafe! Visited on a weekday. First stop: the cafe. Had the Truck Stop Special ($15.95) which includes two eggs, one pancake, home fries, and choice of meat served with sourdough toast. Thought it was gonna be some fancy-looking, small portions plate, was glad to be wrong. Big breakfast with lots of bacon and a delicious pancake. Service was good too. The bookstore is so cool, I went twice. Besides the books, they sell a lot of original, artsy and fun stuff that run the gamut from games to umbrellas. I brought home two beautiful hardcovers, some fancy chocolate bars and a cute bookmark.

Fun place with so many options at good prices. A Boston classic. You won’t be getting five star food or service but a great place to go w people visiting
