    What a great little breakfast place. Plenty of specials and a great staff. I hade the corned beef hash which seemed home made. The home fries were stellar. The coffee was good and hot. And my toast came out warm and buttered. I will come back.

    Came here for breakfast and had a great experience. There is quite a line but boy is it worth the wait. I came here with a big group and our server was over quickly and attentive throughout our stay. Everything we ordered came out quickly and tasted delicious. The staff was super friendly and the place had some great charm. Next time I am on the cape, I will certainly be coming back. I highly recommend!

    This is such a cute place, so nostalgic of the 50's era. The mural on the wall, tables, and chairs made you feel like you were part of American Graffiti We went for breakfast before leaving the Cape. They had plenty of gf breakfast items along with ones that aren't gluten friendly. They ask if it's a preference or allergy. I had the stand bacon and eggs with gf toast. They did have french toast and pancakes that were gf. The waitresses were cheerful and friendly. We found this place by looking on Yelp. The proprietor at the place we stayed at also recommended it. We definitely enjoyed the ambiance, friendly service, and yummy breakfast items

    In 2017, Betsy's Diner was listed as one of the top 15 diners in New England, by Yankee Magazine. When I googled that article this morning, it was no longer on an updated list from August 2nd, 2021. And the other 14 diners from the original list still made the cut. What happened???? Apparently, from speaking with several of the locals, ownership changed hands in 2019. The menu changed, prices went up.... I was in the area b4 knowing of the ownership change and decided to try it. The signage, ambience, and nostalgia still beckons. There was a brief wait on an off-season Saturday morning. Place was crowded. I ordered a make your own 3-egg omelet with ham and brocolli. Came w home fries and toast. I was underwhelmed. The eggs were way overcooked to the point of being crispy. The broccoli was not cooked at all. The home fries were nothing special....not spiced at all. And the coffee, unfathomably, was not very hot. Price for the omelet was $11.45. Bill came to over $15, so the coffee must've been $2.99. Note that it's not listed on the menu. All-in-all, pricey and not high quality. In fairness, my seating neighbors had pancakes and they looked good. Also, Kathleen, was GREAT. Constantly on the move, pleasant, efficient, etc. I can see why Betsy's was the only diner replaced from the original 2017 list. Great on nostalgia, but...... and the corned beef hash is not homemade.

    CLEAN syrup dispenser!  Unheard of at a diner!  Great job Betsy's!

    Totally impressed. Came on Tuesday morning at 8am and the two waitresses (blonde and brunette) were efficient, tidy and attentive. It did not feel grungy like our diner at home - windowsills, the drink areas and behind the counter just looked like they had been cared for and kept up. Breakfast food was great. The egg portions was huge and the home fries were crispy and homemade. Guess what? They had real maple syrup upon request!

    YUM. I loves me a good breakfast. This little diner serves up a breakfast that satisfies those morning hunger pangs. I ordered the classic breakfast of fluffy pancakes, savory sausage links, eggs over easy and real home fries - not those stringy things - I'm talking real chunks of potatoes. The pancakes were light and fluffy. The sausage was juicy and perfectly cooked and the eggs were perfectly cooked. I wonder if the corned beef hash is home made? We will definitely return.

    This diner reminds me of Happy Days waiting for Ritchie Cunningham and his friends to walk in. I just wanted a coffee and something sweet for a snack. Coffee is bottomless and delicious. My blueberry muffin was grilled with butter, yummy. The restaurant was bustling and the servers always had a smile and made sure you were ok. The decor is fun with sock hopping music. I recommend Betsy Diner, come on in and enjoy sitting at the counter or at a table.

    Unfortunately my experience was poor. I walked in and 2 waitresses were there, one told me I could sit anywhere. As I sat down at the bar I could see food stuck on the "clean" silverware setups. The typical 1950's music was playing in the dining area. In the kitchen different music was blaring which for me was sensory overload. I ordered black coffee. The coffee was good. I ordered a bacon and cheese omelet which came with home fries & toast. I got a grilled English. The whole delivery was unappetizing. It gave me "slop" vibes. The omelet was overcooked & cold and whole slices of bacon were just thrown in making it hard to cut and eat. The home fries were burnt on one side and raw on the other. The English muffin was flavorless. The waitress who threw the food in front on me asked me if I needed anything else. I had no salt/pepper or condiments in front of me. So I said yes everything. I try to always have a sense of adventure and keep a sense of humor even when things are not as I had hoped. This whole experience was underwhelming and I will never go back. The guy beside me said there was another place close that had really good omelets. I will try them next time. This place has potential if the staff wanted to actually care about giving good service and maybe the cook stops slinging out less than appetizing food. Just my impression. Hopefully your experience will be better!

    The lack of kindness and professionalism on the waitress was enough to make me not want to come back. Too bad food was mediocre as well.

    Stopped in on a Saturday night to catch Silent Trees, and wow -- the place was buzzing. Packed wall…read moreto wall with a lively 40-50+ crowd that clearly knows how to have a good time. You could feel the energy as soon as you walked in. The bartenders were definitely in the weeds most of the night, but you'd never know it from their attitude -- still friendly, still smiling, and somehow making me feel like I'd been coming there for years (first visit, by the way). Grabbed a veggie pizza (solid choice), a cold beer, and settled in for a couple of hours of great local music and that perfect "this is exactly where I'm supposed to be tonight" vibe. If this is what a random Saturday looks like here, I'll be back.

    Review: Jack's Restaurant and Bar - A Tale of Two Temperatures…read more​If you're looking for a spot in Falmouth where the vibes are high but the Celsius is... conservative, Jack's Restaurant and Bar is your destination. ​I went in with high hopes and a healthy appetite. Here's the breakdown of our culinary "Goldilocks" experience--except nothing was actually hot. ​The Order ​The Boneless Ribeye: This steak was seasoned to perfection and tender enough to make a grown man cry. It had the soul of a five-star meal, but the temperature of a brisk October morning on Old Silver Beach. I'm convinced the chef cooked it beautifully and then gave it a pep talk in a room-temperature hallway for ten minutes before sending it out. ​The Scallops: My companion's scallops were seared wonderfully. They looked like little pillows of heaven. Unfortunately, they were also roughly the same temperature as actual pillows. Delicious? Yes. Did they require a scarf? Possibly. ​The "Lukewarm" Mystery ​It's honestly an impressive feat of physics. To have a crust that crisp on a ribeye and a sear that golden on a scallop, yet have both arrive with the thermal energy of a glass of tap water, defies the laws of thermodynamics. ​Pro Tip: If you're the type of person who always burns their tongue on the first bite, Jack's is your safe haven. You can dive in with the reckless abandon of a seagull hitting a discarded fry. ​The Verdict ​The food at Jack's is legitimately tasty. The flavors are 10/10, the bar scene is lively, and the service is friendly. We didn't even send it back because, frankly, we were too busy enjoying the flavor to care about the lack of steam. It's the only place I've been where the "warm" welcome applies to the steak, too. ​Final Score: (Four stars--would have been five, but I had to check my ribeye for a pulse to see if it was hibernating.)
