I cannot wait for summer menu to come! Their lobster rolls are $30 but it comes with 2 rolls and are pretty huge stuffed with fresh lobster bites and applewood smoked bacon , the best combo ever!!

Chris Mills

I just love this place. It's nestled right in the sweet spot for good, casual food; and it's in a nice location. Sandwiches from all the best chefs at other restaurants in Boston. Nice beer list too.

Zuni Roll and spinach salad are amazing! The dressing on the spinach salad makes it for me. I've been trying to recreate it at home to no avail, as well as the cranberry-chipotle sauce on the Zuni.

Awesome Beer list and amazing Sandwiches . Loved the Parish Chicken Sandwich and Potato Salad . My husband had the Dbar sandwich , loved that - ask to go easy on the sauce, there was so much on there!

Joao Sallez

Good place for sandwiches and salads , crowded and loud , but nice for a catch up few beers and snacks . I had the nebo sandwich (tuna and greens) enjoy

Cameron Ryan

I've been coming here for years. Monday nights there seems to be this bartender that dreams of the 3rd Reich & Trump's America. Fucking racist. What happened to the bald bartender ? He is great.

Raafat Zaini

Amazing sandwiches and yes finally on crunchy breads with creative side salads . We ordeal a takeout dinner . Yummy ????

Nick Holroyd

The hot and cold chicken salad is amazing, and their rotating craft beer selection lures me in even when I'm not hungry.

E Simon

You can't go wrong here. Great sandwiches , food, drinks, and people. If you live in the Back Bay area, this should be your version of Cheers.

Irina

Zuni roll sounded better on the menu than in my plate. A taste was a bit blind and the cranberry sauce is really sweet. Overall, pretty general sandwich-roll. Service was friendly though.

Kingsley Younger

There are 60 different types of sandwiches (that sort of look like burgers ) available on the menu that were created by top chefs in Boston. Only 15 types are available for 3 months and then rotated.

Dimitar Chatleski

Very positive atmosphere, nice staff with lovely charisma, incredible food! If you are fan of salads , the Hot and Cold Chicken Salad is a must!

John L

Anything out of the kitchen is unequivocally delectable - the chefs have the Midas touch of taste it seems. Sandwiches in general are fantastic and the chicken salad is particularly commendable.

Ryan Gallagher

All sandwiches are designed by other chefs in the Boston area. Great idea. Great sandwiches .

Andrew Cassidy

Beware the pour size - Despite beers being listed as 16oz, all beers are served in a 12oz glass.

Tim Rothfuss

A wonderful option if you're looking for a late night meal. Cozy and efficient, with a good beer list and food menu.

Kingsley Younger

Featured on Unique Eats. The Lumiere looks rather good and has slow cooked pulled pork shoulder , papaya salad and spicy tasty sauce! Very delicious!

Jon Schechter

If you see the Nebo on special, you must order it. Otherwise the Schlow or Zuni will satisfy. Hummus platter is the best way to start, unless you're feeling like some incredible onion rings .

David Cunningham

The Zuni Roll appears basic, but is delicious. If you're not in the mood for a sandwich , the Hot & Cold Chicken Salad is surprisingly tasty.

Laura

The Le Mistral was sooo good. We ordered a 1/2 order of onion rings and split the Le Mistral. It was enough for 2 people.

Boston Reddit

Parish Cafe has some of the most delicious sandwiches I've ever tasted...pair one with a tasty beer and you're golden. My favorite is the Famous Chicken Sandwich with chipotle aioli . mmmmm

Rashed AlRasheedi

Go for Parish, and the Baked Mac & cheese ????!!!

Subhro M

Wide selection of beers and great chicken wings to accompany your drink. Nice outdoor patio to chill on a summer evening

Chad Ackerman

You can't go wrong with the Zuni or the Benny. Only the east coast knows how to make a sandwich taste this good.

Priyanka Ravaal

The ginger darling is amazing ! The gin give a good kick. The spinach salad is pretty good to for all my veggies out there check out this place !

The Hot & Cold Chicken Salad . This is one of the tastiest things I've eaten in a long time.

Eric Venker

Collection of the best sandwiches from the best chefs around the city and a GIGANTIC beer list . Fun place for a crowd.

Robyn R

Bread pudding is amazing! Very nice spot.

Trevor Arneberg

Amazing beer selection and guest chef made sandwiches ! Go for the mug challenge! Limited seating outside

Christina Liu

The bond chicken salad sandwich is really good. Chicken is flavorful and juicy and the crispy onions add a nice, crunchy texture.

Polina Weitz

The Le mistral is an amazing sandwich . Portions are generous. It gets busy, especially on the weekend.

Pratik Pawar

Good for lunch with friends & family on weekends!! Worth the wait to get a table outside . Try white sangria pitcher

Will Hunt

The BLT is great! Super busy when we came, so grab a drink at the bar in the mean time.

Stephen Purcell

Zuni roll was really good, as were the onion rings . Would pass on the Parish chicken again. Watermelon Marg = ????

Anne Hack

Michelle n Ammie and I came here last year after the Halloween party! Think Boston style coney breakfast joint that serves alcohol ... Pretty awesome!

Vivian

obsessed with hummus plate . i get it for the pickled onions & roasted red peppers .

Stephen Sheppard

Interesting selection of IPAs on draft , spicy tuna burger is highly recommended.

Drew M

Good beer selection , but the size of the Zuni Roll & Mexican Meatball sandwiches left a little to be desired. I was still hungry afterwards.

Lee Hoffman

The Zuni is INCREDIBLE, the parish is really good

Katie K

Zuni roll is one of my favorite sandwiches in Boston . Add the potato salad and I'm in heaven.

Daniel Tewfik

Their double lobster roll is filling and delicious (albeit expensive , but that's alotta lobster ).

Bill Carcary

Zuni roll with salad , tasty local and exotic beers . Great service and even better onion rings ...

Lee Simpson

The meat loaf sandwich comes with some of the best mash potato and gravy you'll ever eat.

The bread pudding was awesome, and our waiter was delightful.

I'm not sure what was on "The Chris" (there were hard boiled eggs and pastrami , for sure), but it was delicious. And it comes with potato salad .
