Super nice staff!, nice outdoor seating and the sandwiches are amazing:) but breakfast and the ice cream is also a must try!

I was hanging out in the staging area for the Mystic Irish Parade and had time to kill before the parade stepped off so my coworkers and I came across the street to check out Anchor. This is a great place to pick up breakfast, lunch or just a sweet treat and a beverage. It's located right next to the Seaport and has a nice outdoor seating area that allows you to enjoy the day. If you take your food to go and walk outside along the side of the building you will have a great view of the Mystic River. The staff is friendly. I went back and asked the staff working the counter if they could add another two flavor shots in my coffee and they were super nice and added the chocolate and caramel flavor shots in my coffee without any hesitation. The service was quick even tho they were busy. The owner even offered us a piece of crumb cake to try. That was really sweet of him. My crumb cake, my breakfast sandwich and my coffee were delicious. The owner came over and gave us a piece of warm crumb cake to try and it was excellent. Warming it up makes such a difference. It was buttery and just a delight! All in all 10/10 experience and will be back again .

I've been a member of the Seaport for years and tried this place a couple times after they opened. Food was lacking flavor however the counter staff was excellent. The owner attacked my review and me. When I mentioned the turkey breakfast sandwich had no flavor and was dry he said they didn't even have one on the menu. (They do, listed as The Admiral) He then accused me of not being a real customer (I have receipts from the restaurant saying other wise). After that the owner went on to say I was targeting them. Feel free to read the owners response to other bad reviews. They immediately accuse people of attacking them instead of actually taking the review for what it is. While the service and counter help were outstanding the owners poor attitude is more than enough reason to go somewhere else. Especially with over 20 amazing restaurants in town.

Great small casual local cafe that is known for its sourdough goodies. They offer everything from…read morehouse-made bread, morning rolls (sweet and savory), cookies, to pizza and sandwiches. They make their own blend of house teas which are delicious. It's a small spot that has both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are all very friendly. We ordered the mushroom toast, house breakfast sandwich and two dark chocolate glazed sourdough donuts (which are made to order). This was our second visit of the weekend and everything was delicious both times. Definitely adding to our Rolodex of places to return to and highly recommend!

Nana's has something for everyone: pizza using the sourdough they bake in house, a killer spicy…read morekale Caesar salad, sandwiches, and a pastry section including seasonal doughnuts. So that means everyone loves Nana's. Which means that, on a very rainy weekend early afternoon, we ended up waiting quite a long time to order and then to get our food but ... I suppose it was worth it (this is high praise coming from someone who almost never believes waiting in a long line is actually worth it). My friend and I split the spicy Caesar kale salad as a starter. I cracked up when I saw "massaged kale" as one of the ingredients. But all jokes aside, this was one of the best kale salads with abundant dressing and, in lieu of croutons, breadcrumbs and cashew parmesan. It tasted pretty indulgent and rich but you can certainly fool yourself into thinking it's actually healthy. I got the tomato sandwich plus bacon (so a BLT without the L) and it was pretty good, though I do wish they cut the bread a little thinner so I could pick it up and eat it as a sandwich. As it were, I just used my knife and fork - certainly more civilized. The pizza was also not bad, though I wish there were some more of the toppings - heard it's leagues better than Mystic Pizza. There are a few tables inside but be prepared to wait. When it was peak rush hour, there were two lines inside, one for the bathroom and one to place an order. Even though they were so slammed, the staff couldn't be friendlier. Our waitress in particular came by often to see how we were doing. Parking lot also filled up. We parked in the Mystic train station and then walked over.

I want to say I don't eat a lot of ice cream, but...that would be a lie, at least this summer. I've…read moreeaten a lot of ice cream lately. And Mystic Drawbridge has great ice cream. It's thick, and creamy, and exactly what I want out of hard ice cream. They do have soft serve and my kids love a twist with sprinkles, but I got down with the Seaport Salty Swirl: caramel ice cream, peanuts, chocolate covered pretzels, peanut butter and a caramel swirl. I think the only thing I'd change was pulling out the peanuts. The staff was more than happy to serve us up whatever we needed (with lots of smiles), and the shop is actually quite large, with plenty of seating for you and your family after you get whatever you're looking for. They also have a number of baked goods, and some serious shakes. I think the Salted Caramel Pretzel shake is calling my name for next time. I love that they've been here for 35 years. I love that there's a sign on the wall talking about how they make such great ice cream. And I love ice cream, even if I don't eat a lot of it (that was a lie).

Delicious ice cream- a must visit for Mystic!…read more I wanted a banana split and although its not on the menu, my very friendly server offered to help me make a sundae that was close to it. I had strawberry and chocolate ice cream, bananas, chocolate syrup, strawberry syrup (I think), whipped cream, chocolate sprinkles and of course a cherry. The ice cream itself was creamy and flavorful- you can tell its quality! I appreciate the nice seating area and bathroom in the back. Plus the overall location is awesome. Great experience and will definitely be back!
