What Others Are Saying
The sourdough was delicious. I loved the fluffy eggs and the white cheddar! If everything else is perfect, I may give a full five stars if the bacon is less than perfect. It was definitely not perfect bacon. There was almost like it was smoked or something and that I get, but I'm reviewing it!

PS Gourmet Coffee
Home of the Bucket!
106 Dorchester St, Boston, MA 02127, USA
Through experimentation, customer feedback and the strategic and creative minds of family and staff, we discovered a new coffee blend. This new recipe combines flavored coffee, and mocha to taste like your favorite candy bar. This transformation has created a new experience for coffee drinkers and earned PS a new loyal customer base.
What Others Are Saying
PS Gourmet is lovely. I used to urge everyone to try. Unfortunately, I had a recent experience at the Braintree/Weymouth location and it has been a total disappointment. The coffees were not at all what I received, which I ordered online. How can you forget both the mocha and the flavored coffee? Ten minutes after my pickup time, none of the drinks were even made. It was quite disappointing, can't say I'll return anytime soon. A massive drink that no one even looked at the order label was too expensive for me to waste my money on.
