Restaurant located inside a small bookstore. My wife and I enjoyed it. Good breakfast.

Trident Booksellers & Café has been a beloved spot in Boston for years, but recent changes have left some longtime patrons disappointed. The lack of personal interaction due to new ordering procedures has left some feeling disconnected. However, the food remains tasty and the atmosphere cozy, making it a great spot for brunch with friends. The extensive book collection offers a unique dining experience that many still enjoy. Despite some drawbacks like slow service and crowded seating, Trident Booksellers & Café remains a hidden gem for those seeking a relaxed environment to enjoy good food and books in Boston.

They have new system that you pay online first then get food on your table. That gives the servers the ability to simply ignore you since you pay tips upfront....
