Breakfast

This cafe, located at Cambridge Crossing, offers delicious morning pastries—from salted hazelnut sticky buns to smoked salmon and everything danishes—as well as breakfast sandwiches and healthier options, like overnight oats and Greek yogurt with granola.

While chowing down on a big sugar filled breakfast isn't the best choice if you're aiming to achieve sustained energy, research suggests that eating a little something sweet in the morning can curb cravings later on. This will often result in less overindulgence and grazing throughout the day.

In the summer months, the hotel hosts its live music series, Summer in the City, outdoors during the week, so we suggest snagging a table at the Grille on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday for the perfect evening of food and cocktails, tunes and water views.

Amongst the Southern-inspired dishes coming out of the kitchen: Crispy pieces of fried chicken served atop cheddar waffles and drizzled with a generous drip of habanero lavender honey; succulent best breakfast west of boston brisket and biscuit sliders smothered in bourbon barbecue sauce; shrimp and smoky grits finished with chili de arbol butter; as well as a rotating seasonal pie (i.e. a peanut butter banana pie).

Favorites include the Super Pesto (it's stuffed with smoked chicken, fresh mozzarella, baby spinach, roasted mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes) and the Belgian chocolate with strawberries, with the option to substitute in buckwheat crepes for gluten-free guests.
