Tasty Treats!

Jennifer Lee's is located in the fairly new Boston Public Market - right above the Haymarket T Station, across from City Hall and a few blocks from the touristy Quincy Market. Unfortunately I went quite late in the day and the selection was limited (completely understandable) as was the same at all the other stands too. I was able to get blueberry bread - like a big tasty blueberry muffin and took a box of, the very rare, vegan French Macarons! Head to the market, buy a few things and create a pic-a-nic and find a nice bench to eat on!

Pros: Great location., Vegan.

Great spot!

I’m vegan and visited with a GF friend and this couldn’t have been better for us. The sweets were AMAZING, tried the brownies and cupcakes. Had the philly cheesesteak which was really nice and didn’t mind the GF bread. Also super sweet service!

Pros: Variety of options, Clear labeling for allergens, Service

Felt mislead

When I went today at lunch time (1:30pm), there was a sign posted that said, “We’ll be back soon!” I waited 70 minutes, until an employee came back and said that she took an hour break because she had a long shift. Why not put up a sign then that you would be closed for an hour? I felt foolish waiting there so long, convincing myself that someone would be back any minute. At least we met some wonderful people in line - just such a waste of everyone’s time.

Pros: Met some nice people in a long line

Cons: Felt that we have different meanings of “soon”

Hit the spot for a light lunch

Incredible that a lot of dishes were also naturally gluten free!

CANNOLIS

I read a review that the cannolis here were fantastic. Since I haven’t had a cannoli since going vegan five years ago, I made it a point to come here. It most definitely did not disappoint.

When I came, cannolis weren’t on display (because there was low stock), but I asked and was able to order two (of the four left at the time).

This place made a total 180!

Had a sandwich here that was mushrooms and cheese. The cheese was not melted. There was not much substance to the sandwich. Just mushrooms and non melted cheese. The bread was the best part. I really hope they improve.

Update:
Had some pastries as well as a pesto panini. They have really upped their game and it was a pleasure to enjoy their food and support them. Will come back anytime we are on the area. Also: epic vegan CANNOLI!

I love to hear this. Tried this place many years ago and was vastly underwhelmed. And its not because of the gluten free aspect. We have had many delicious GF items. Will try it again, thanks for sharing👏🏻😍

Cupcakes are good, donuts were not/:

I honestly wanted to love this place more than I ended up liking it. The cupcakes were pretty good, but we ending up going another time and got donuts and they really weren’t good. They were really dense and had a weird after taste . I might have to go back and try more and see if my
Opinion changes. But overall not my favorite vegan bakery. They were also pretty pricey and prices were a little unclear. But the service was amazing ! I will eventually go back with an open mind and see if my opinion changes!

Jennifer is so sweet

The owner is so sweet, and the bakery is 100% allergen free! For someone with Celiac's disease and also vegan, I've never found a better bakery.

I love the desserts, but also go to see her everytime there's a vegan fest!

Pros: 100% allergen free

Good desserts

When I went only desserts were on the menu, probably because it was near closing time. They were all really soft and sweet, which I liked. I probably shouldn’t have tried so many at once though.

Great selection

Lovely selection - had a vegan beyond Philly and it was great in the Boston Public Market. Cupcakes on offer too (sadly didn’t try). The owner (well I think she was the owner) was amazing, super friendly.

Pros: Options, Great customer service

Cons: $$$$

Disappointed

They could notify their customers via this app or elsewhere online of temporary closings. I'm from out of town and walked over here only to find that they're TEMPORARILY CLOSED.

Amazing flavor

I tried baked goods from here at a festival and was so excited because I wasn’t sure if the festival would have any vegan options! They had a lot of different options - I tried an Elvis cupcake, a spiced marshmallow filled cannoli, and a s’mores cookie. All had great flavor, so I’d love to visit the bakery directly to try more things.

Pros: Many options, Great flavor, Fairly priced

Top vegan bakery

I had the pumpkin donut for breakfast and later the eggplant calzone, the staff asked me if I like it heated up which I did and it was so good. For dessert I took the caramel apple cupcake which was wonderful too. They have a lot of different bakery goods, mostly sweet and everything looks great.

Dry dense coffee cake

The coffee cake was dense, gritty, the flour mixture and/or sweetener has an off taste.

Cons: Bleh taste, Awful texture

Lovely GF & vegan sandwich on the go

Delicious sandwich which was both vegan gluten-free (a unicorn!) and friendly staff too

La comida es rica, pero la atención es MUY mala.

Me gustó lo que pedí, pero se demoraron más de 15 minutos en atenderme, y otros 10 en que esté listo lo que pedí; pero sobre todo me molestó la actitud. Pareciera que no quisieran vender.

Pros: Muchas opciones, Todo vegano, Es bien rico

Cons: Pésima atención , Muy mal servicio

Lots of desserts

This is a pretty neat place. They have a few savory options an a bunch of sweets. Though I have had better, it was definitely worth a try.

Kind people yummy food

I love that this place is allergen free, they offer many sweets and some savory food too. Our brownie was sweet, but not too dense for being gluten free. My husband liked the chocolate cake donuts (although cake donuts are not our fave) and I got a cheezy cauliflower pasta that was excellent.

Way too sweet

I wanted to like this so much. I got a connoli and a cupcake both were so sweet I couldn't finish either at different times. When the sugar over powers there just isn't a good balance

Not great

I wanted this to be better because the lady working was so nice. But I opened it up and my Reuben bread looked like vanilla cake and tasted just about the same. The only things I liked about the sandwich were the sauerkraut and the sauce

Cons: Not great

Cannoli was just okay

This is probably a good option if you have other allergies and aren't just vegan. Some of the other baked goods looked pretty good, but sadly the cannoli was mediocre. I was excited to try a cannoli because I haven't had one since being vegan, but it wasn't really like a cannoli except for the shape. The filling was kind of salty and the shell was hard and biscuit-like.

Pros: Lots of vegan and allergy friendly options

Cons: Did not taste good

Sehr süßer Kuchen

Der Kuchen war süß...mehr aber leider auch nicht. Der Brownie hat auch schon etwas älter geschmeckt. Netter Service.
