They have breakfast deals depending on the day. The food is kinda pricey but it was honestly pretty good. I felt like their portions were pretty big too! I think the only issue we had was with our waitress! She was pretty short with us and not very kind...I feel like we have had something similar to happen to us before! I had asked her if the home fries or hash browns were more popular, and she had a pretty short/rude response back! Although she seemed to warm up to our party by the time we left and it was time to leave a tip, she didn't come by much to see if we needed any refills! We tried to get her attention to get a coffee refill, and it was hard to get more! I think we ended up having someone go up to the counter to ask because it was so hard to get her attention! Overall, it was a pretty good experience! I normally don't get too worked up about the service not being the best, but she was pretty rude to us! I think I would come back but the service is really the only "bad" thing I have to say about the Olde Bay Diner if that's something that would bother someone! I would also caution against bringing a large party here! They would probably try to stick you at the bar which isn't the most comfortable!

We were there for the promise of a fantastic breakfast. The menu is manageable, lots of choices~all pitstop themed~ but not so many that it was a chore to choose. I decided on a 3 egg swiss and mushroom omelette. It was explained that toast was extra, which isn't the norm, at least in my experience. But I dove in and ordered Rye. My Son ordered 2eggs over easy, the potatoes (not the deep fried version), bacon, ham, sausage and 2 pancakes. This breakfast seemed to include a toast option, for those who are keeping score. The food was spectacular. Very well done, simply, and with no frills save for a killer playlist that included Bittersweet Symphony. You don't often find yourself sitting at a counter, eating breakfast with special toast and hear The Verve. Worth a mention. The service was crisp, thorough and we did get a lovely smile and thank you as we checked out. But at the end of it all, the food is, or should be the star. And it was.

Atmosphere was diner-cool, families galore were indulging and enjoying. The food was a mixed batch. Decent portions, poor presentation, mediocre taste, but beef quality & cook was good. Mashed potatoes were ok, but appearance was a lil funky. A bit more pan jus would've helped because it was absorbed by the potatoes. I love a diner breakfast, so I'll go back another day for that.

I had the country omelette with sausage and cheddar topped with sausage gravy. The issue I have is that the gravy was a brown gravy and lacked flavor. It is supposed to be a white gravy with a peppery flavor. The home fries had had no seasoning at all. Not sure I would come back here.

The waitress / hostess greeted us and sat us right away at a nice oversized booth for myself and my mother. She was quick to point out the specials on the board and the list of muffins that they had, it should be noted that their bread is homemade per the sign. My mother and I both ordered omelets that were on the board. They were a perfect size filled nicely and the potatoes, whether you want hash browns or home fries they were both cooked to perfection and delicious. Wr chose the sourdough bread, which again is homemade, and it was just perfect with a good amount of butter on the slices. That was melted!!! The one suggestion that I would make is with their j Jalapeno Popper Omelet that they try to make a change, or do one a different way, and use pickled jalapenos, but that's just this reviewer's preference.. I would definitely say that if you're in the area to stop by and grab a bite..

The bread is out of this world and is perfect for making french toast. The bread is challah bread from a local bakery. Every component of this french toast is perfect. The outside of the bread has a nice crust while the inside is warm and custardy but not too soggy. The butter and syrup are really good as well and they do not skimp. Bacon - 10/10 It is possibly the best bacon I have ever had. It might have been it was cooked to perfection that day or we were just at the right place at the right time. To me this is saying a lot because we all eat and have had a ton of bacon in our lives. I mean of course the bacon was good but it's not that simple. It was crispy while parts of it were still tender with a great chew. It also had a great smoke flavor. Most bacons say, "smoked." This bacon actually had a smokey flavor with wasn't artificial and paired so well with the coffee and sweet breakfast items. Pancakes - 9.4 The cook and tenderness of the pancake was fantastic. Again, the butter they serve is great and pairs well with the pancakes. The only hang up we had is the pancakes have a lemon flavor we weren't expecting. It didn't ruin the pancake however, we wished the lemon flavor wasn't there. Coffee - 10/10 The coffee is ground second prior to being brewed. It's not just your typical diner or breakfast spot coffee. Outside of a drink containing espresso, this was maybe the best cup of coffee we had at a restaurant. There was something different about this coffee as well. Maybe the atmosphere, the service, the weather and the food actually being amazing contributed to how great everything was. This place will definitely be added to the top 15-20 places I have visited so far.

They had to move up our reservation by half an hr., but that was no issue & we didn't mind at all. I think a lot of the personal touches of being catered to made a difference, as well as the fact we were more than customers - felt more like friends. The lobster Rangoon's are a bit pricey ($6/ea.) BUT SO WORTH IT - I highly recommend this! The filling is INSANE. Crunchy outside with an awesome dipping sauce. They're large so I think next time I will order (2) with a side salad for a meal. Courtney was a very humorous, kind server that came by at appropriate times to check on us. Not sure of the hostess's name but she was lovely & brought us silverware when we requested. I believe that either a general manager or owner came over to check on us which was a nice touch. If you share the Pier Platter, note that there is a $5 'surcharge' to split where you allegedly get 'more sides' - I don't think that is necessarily true but boy, it's beyond delicious. There were (2) small dipping sauce cups of coleslaw on each plate, as well as waffle fries. One thing that knocked down a star is that the haddock seemed to be skimpy, possibly frozen. Flavor was great, but it was almost like a fish stick. In the past, we'd share a platter & received a large piece of fresh fried haddock. In summary, we love Shibley's & would never give up on going here. Reservations are highly suggested! :)
