The Best Breakfast in Boston
Briefly

Step into this converted theater in Chinatown, where decades of history set the stage for some of the city's best dim sum. The ornate space fills daily with carts packed with shumai, turnip cakes, roast pork buns, braised tripe, and so much more, but our favorite is the cheung fun, a.k.a. steamed rice noodle rolls. Though it's open seven days a week, dim sum crowds peak around noon on weekends—but the vast dining room means you'll rarely wait for a table, even during rush hour.
Guests staying at the luxurious Langham hotel have it easy. They can pop over to this Italian-inspired restaurant, located in the cavernous space that was once the grand hall of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, for breakfast starting at 7 a.m. daily. (And so can you—it’s open to the public.) Match the glamorous venue with an order that feels a little fancy: strawberry-pistachio bruschetta with speck, perhaps, or carbonara Benedict. Throw in a rum-spiked milkshake for a really good time.
The Bristol Lounge's legendary power breakfasts may be history, but Boston's decision makers have found a new favorite at Café Q at the 'Quin House. Offering a refined menu that is cozy yet vibrant, the café becomes a hub for those looking to fuel up before a busy day ahead. Diners can enjoy classic options like eggs Benedict but revamped with local ingredients, setting a tone for a day in the bustling city.
