Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner in Chestnut Hill, Minutes from Boston

The Friendly Toast adds a colorful, lively spot to the area’s mix of shopping, schools, neighborhoods, and green space. It’s a natural choice for family breakfast, a college-weekend meal, a shopping-day break, or dinner with friends when you want something more playful.
