Great place to grab a coffee, or beer, while getting some work done in District Hall!

This is my second year hosting our company event at Brew and it's been nothing short of wonderful! Not only is the venue just beautiful, but the service, and the quality in food/beverages are top notch! They were such a pleasure to work with and made my job, as the event coordinator, so easy! I will definitely miss having our party here and working with such a great team!

This is the hummus and quinoa wrap I just paid for and can't eat. The wrap is wet and soggy and this looks like it was prepared a week ago. The veggies have a white film on them. There is no "made on" date on the container. Will not return

Was here for an event in one of the meeting rooms that are available for rent by day in the building. What a great spot! Open areas for working with breakfast and lunch available at the cafe and also at the restaurant inside. Coffee and breakfast sandwiches were great!

Note to the Yelp admin: this place actually closes at 4:55 pm, not 5 pm. Weird, I know, but I went to get an iced coffee on another hot Boston day and when I arrived at 4:55 I waited. I waited a few minutes before someone came over and told me it was closed. Still before 5 pm. Thankfully there's a Starbucks coming in soon across the street so we don't have to settle when we want an afternoon iced coffee.

1 star because the food is so nasty

The chai lattee was pretty good but not amazing enough to make up for the poor food quality

It's awesome that they have free open space in seaport for you to eat there but who wants to eat a slice of pizza that looks two weeks old and dry by 1pm?

$4 for croissants that you wouldn't want if there were 50 cents

Four stars for ambiance -- amazing place to work. View and natural light + decor are among the coolest I've seen. Also, no music and good sound absorption (great for working or meeting). Downside is the coffee is awful. Stick to tea or a safer bet if you're a coffee enthusiast.

This is the only place that was designed from its conception customers working remotely. It's amazing. I've set up full electronics kits here, nobody even bats an eye.

Good coffee but getting it in the morning can be slow going since they do not have a ton of staff. Same goes for the breakfast sandwiches. The public meeting area is really nice and the connected Gather Cafe is not bad. But if you are in a rush head to Starbucks or Cafe Strega.

So much space to do work! You will never be unable to get a seat, and there are plenty of plugs all around. This is my go-to for doing work when I absolutely need a seat and some space. And free wifi that is a reasonable speed!

Plus the coffee is pretty good. What more could you want?

Terrible! I have eaten there 3 times and that's enough for me. Chicken burrito - chicken tasted old, roast beef sandwich with mozzarella (they neglected to tell me it was buffalo mozzarella and not sliced, roast beef not fresh, served on a stale hamburger bun) and chicken sandy (chicken not fresh). Not sure why they can't get anything right but shame on me for going back more than once! Way too pricey for what you get.

I was falling asleep at my desk when my boss casually mentioned a new coffeeshop that had opened up near our office. I immediately grabbed my purse and went exploring.

Brew Cafe is not easy to find. First of all, it's unmarked from the street if you're walking along Seaport Boulevard, and once you get to the District Hall building none of the doors are marked with a logo, either. If you can find the door marked 75 Northern Ave, though, and step through, Gather restaurant will be to your left with Brew to the right.

Brew offers typical fare like bagels, fruit, sandwiches and coffee

Brew is the new coffee shop in District Hall, which is the Innovation Districts new concept building meant to host innovative social gatherings and meetings.

The coffee shop itself is in a wide open space with dry erase walls and plenty of tables of various sizes.

They serve coffee and tea, breakfast pastries and sandwiches (all day!), pizza by the slice, burgers, sandwiches, soup and salad. Along with your usual beverages and a bonus of about 5 draft lines (with local craft beers such as Notch).

I had the Breakfast Sandy with egg, cheese, and ham on a bagel. The bagel was just right for
