Sorelle Bakery and Cafe

Sorelle’s Atlantic Wharf cafe serves breakfast, sandwiches, coffee, and pastries on Congress Street. Start with an egg-and-cheese bagel or a croissant, or come back at lunchtime for the Sorelle Club, made with turkey, bacon, Swiss cheese, and béarnaise mayonnaise. Caprese on ciabatta and an avocado-and-chickpea sandwich give you options beyond the deli meats.

The pastry selection includes scones and lemon ricotta pound cake, and the coffee menu runs from espresso to flavored lattes. This is a daytime stop, useful for breakfast before work or lunch near Fort Point Channel. It also opens on weekends. Order ahead through the cafe’s website if you want pickup, and keep the afternoon closing time in mind before making plans for coffee.
