★★★★★ 5.0 catherine knott · Nov 2025

Normally very busy but we caught it at a quiet time midweek around 10:30. Definitely recommend a reservation for the weekend. Friendly service. Excellent brunch. Loved the omelette (added olives). Generous portions. My mom loved the atmosphere. The menu has something for everyone, breakfast or lunch with great sides as well.

Went here after a looong night out and it healed me. Had the Hercules breakfast and it was incredible. Eggs were cooked well, toast was solid, lamb sausage was incredible. Pork belly was just ok in its own. Hashbrown was soo crispy. And finally the pancakes were the second best I’ve ever had, the citrus butter was absolutely incredible. Vibe was good, exactly what you want from a diner.

We were looking for a diner when we found this amazing place. From the friendly staff, clean atmosphere, steaming cup of coffee, to the delicious lemon zest pancakes with citrusy infused butter. The fluffy fresh produce omelet with garden berries on the side. Everything was perfect, making all of our breakfast dreams come true!

Really good food! We ordered the pancakes, it was soooo delicious with their special butter and the natural maple syrup. So yummy! 💖 then I ordered Bahn Mi, it was tasty! As an Asian person, it passed my standards. It's really good :) the server was also nice. This was a nice stopover for us traveling from MA to Maine. Would love to come back again

My wife and I arrived shortly after the diner opened and were shown a table right away. The menu has something for everyone, and the portions won't leave you hungry. My wife got the classic plate that came with eggs, potato ball, bacon, and english muffin. The eggs we perfectly scrambled, the potato ball was crispy, the bacon was thick and cooked chewy, and the muffin was thick. I got the corned beef hash with hashbrowns, eggs, and rye toast. I'm no corned beef hash connisour, but that was the best I've ever had. We also tried the lemon creme strudel frensh toast. The toast was thick and soft. The lemon creme was not overpowering, and the strudel topping put the dish over the top. Overall, the meal was fantastic, the staff was very friendly and I'm sure we'll be going back.
