The Biscuit's crusty breads are only the beginning...
Whether you're looking for bread or bran muffins, a soup-and-sandwich lunch or strawberry-rhubarb pie, you'll find it at Somerville favorite The Biscuit.
Formerly affiliated with Toscanini's, this bakery-cafe has struck out on its own, and bakes its scones, muffins, pizzas, breads, cookies, frittatas and more daily, and with a very few exceptions, excellently.
Reach for one of their savory scones, in flavors like the delectable pear-gorgonzola, cheddar and caramelized onion (the bakery's most popular savory-scone offering) or feta and spinach. They make for a great twist on the usual breakfast fare.
If you're in the mood for something sweeter, try any of the sweet scones except the lemon - the lack of fruit chunks in the center makes the pastry itself come off dry, and the glaze on top is over-sweet.
Though it's not exactly a bakery item, let me highly recommend the soups, in particular the borscht. This Russian favorite is executed perfectly, and goes great with a simple bread roll.
In fact, one of the few baked goods you can't find multiple variations on at The Biscuit is...biscuits. Go figure.
The Biscuit is located at 406 Washington St. in Somerville, 617.666.2770
