MG’s Cafe

I don’t get there enough! They not only have Fabulous food but they are the nicest people you could ever meet. When I was pregnant 16 yrs ago they were constantly trying to feed me! Absolutely they are a business that is a must visit! Soups are delightful, subs are filled and made to your liking so if you don’t see it on the menu don’t hesitate to ask them. The most accommodating & lovely family is the face of this Café. Cannot say enough! YUMMMMM!

The kafta and kibbeh are scrumptious (if u like lamb, which I love). This little hole in the wall in the south end is hard to find because it’s embedded in one of the buildings that make up Boston Medical Center. But my oh my what a find. Can’t wait to try the grape leaves and other middle eastern delectables. Too bad they’re only open for breakfast and lunch…

This is more of a sub shop than a café and it’s location is kind of hidden since it is in the Doctor’s Office Building at Boston Medical. While your waiting for the elevator glance to the left and you will see the specials board tempting you with falafel, chicken fajita plates and hot and cold subs. There are Mediterranean options with hummus, tabouli, pita galore and there are meatball subs, tuna and chicken salad, etc. on a pita or sub roll.
I had the chicken salad with lettuce tomato and pickles. The chicken salad was all white meat and had a bit of spice to it… almost white pepper tasting, yum! The only disappointment was that they forgot the pickles, but they probably thought it was a weird combination. The sandwiches are cheap from $ 4.25 to $ 5.00 for a large size roll or wrap. They also have some slices of cake in to go boxes and other snacks, but I didn’t give those a whirl. I don’t think anything on the menu is more than $ 7 so MG’s definitely beats the hospital cafeteria and seems like a BMC employee favorite.
