    Sausage egg and cheese
    Hannah C.

    Definitely came here for the sourdough bread and it did not disappoint. The bread was the main character. I wasn't a fan of the egg, seemed microwaved. I'd go back in a heart beat for the bread. Coffee was decent and my boyfriend loved the big cookie he got. Service was very well done, it was packed but they had such a quick system going we didn't want long.

    Avocado, egg, and cheese panini
    Kyli P.

    We waited in line for 30 minutes on a Thursday morning and it was well worth the wait! We shared an avocado, egg, & cheese sandwich and blueberry muffin for breakfast -- both were EXCELLENT! The staff were doing a great job of keeping the line moving while still being welcoming and polite. I also enjoyed the best strawberry matcha I've ever had. FYI: very few small indoor tables, so plan accordingly (we unfortunately had all of our luggage with us before heading to our ferry back to Hyannis).

    Sausage, egg & cheese

    Not that this place needs more hype but I couldn't help myself. I went back twice in one trip because the breakfast sandwiches were that good. There was a line but it moved pretty quickly and efficiently. Staff was friendly. I also loved the ambiance inside. Was very light & airy but cozy. The coffee was great too! I had an iced latte with sugar free vanilla. Now onto the sandwiches. The first day, I kept it basic with a sausage, egg & cheese. The sourdough bread was incredible and made the sandwich. On day 2 I decided to get the bb sandy which had bacon, egg, cheese, tomato, & sriracha aioli. Okay, this one was incredible!!! Not that the SEC wasn't good, it just wasn't as special. I didn't get a picture of the bb sandy but just trust me. It was perfect. Last note on the sandwiches: they are HUGE. The first day I ate the whole thing and was full for a very long time. The second day I ate half for breakfast & the second half for lunch. It was perfectly proportioned for two meals for me.

    Born & Bread is a fabulous bread and breakfast shop to visit on the island. We went twice during our stay in Nantucket. Both times were busy and it took 20-25 minutes between the line and receiving our food. The have a lot of pastries, daily baked breads, sandwiches and coffee. Both times I ordered an ice latte with light vanilla and it's really tasty - a huge cup filled with a ton of ice (the way I like it), espresso and not too much milk. The breakfast sandwiches are delicious. Egg, cheese sandwiches with a super chewy sourdough. We ended up buying 2 sourdough loaves to bring to friends. Best decision!

    Getting some pastries to go!

    Went to Born and Bread for some dessert for after dinner. Really enjoyed the diverse assortment of small treats. Lovely presentation and also delicious. I found the carrot cake to be flavorful, moist and light. My family enjoyed sharing the rest of the treats: brownie, cupcakes and pecan pie. Overall the service was nice and they had good customer service. Very pretty interior and a nice place for lunch, dessert or a snack.

    The Bianco sandwich was delicious!
    C P.

    This has to be hands down the best sandwich shop I've been to in the USA. The Bianco was the most delicious sandwich I've ever tasted! Service was great. The crowd management was perfection. Everyone was in and out and the dining area didn't become overwhelming. If you visit Nantucket, you have to eat here.

    A MUST VISIT in Nantucket Island! Great bread baker at this place. You don't have to order/eat a whole entire loaf to taste it. You can order just Toast and Butter form the counter. Bread is truly highlighted. There is a line to order. Sometimes, it goes out the door. The line runs along shelves featuring market items. The AVOCADO TOAST is good. I don't' know how to get my big one to move away from the AVOCADO and try something else. Like I don't know, PB&J for one. ICED LATTE is good. HOT CHOCOLATE is great! HOT LATTE is better than the ICED ONE. I don't know why. Maybe because the weather is perfect for it. ICED CHAI LATTE is also very good. The NUTELLA CRUFFIN made us return. OK to be fair, the plain piece of toast also made us want to reutrn. The workers are friendly, fast and hard working. There are a lot of tables and chairs to enjoy our breakfast. Vibe is uniquely Nantucket.

    Sausage egg and cheese on sourdough panini
    Amy W.

    I had seen this place featured for their great breakfast sandwiches on Tik Tok and so I thought I would try it. It was a rainy Saturday in Late September. I ordered the egg sandwich with cheese and sausage on Sourdough - grilled. The lady at the counter said I got the last piece of sausage for the day - and ya know what - that sandwich could really have used 2 pieces of sausage. I also ordered a large ice tea - it was nearly $20 with tip. It was good, but I live in SF - the land of artisan sourdough bakeries. This sandwich was very good - but nothing spectacular. I will say it was well-grilled, the cheese was melted and the egg was good.

    Lemon Blueberry Thyme Scone
    Erika C.

    While in Nantucket, I stumbled upon this adorable cafe and had the hardest time selecting just one pastry to try from the case! I decided on the Lemon Blueberry Thyme Scone that was so delicious; sweet with the right amount of savory from the thyme. I only wish I bought a loaf of their bread, it looked and smelled so good!

    Honey ham panini
    Eva A.

    We came in at 115 pm, they were very busy but seemed understaffed, it took 20 min for my sandwich to be ready. But the wait was worth it. I ordered the honey ham (ham, apple, goat cheese, arugula, honey on sourdough) pressed as a panini. It was exactly what I needed! The ratios of fillings was perfect, the sourdough was so so good, very crispy but not sharp enough to cut up my mouth. I couldn't really taste or find the honey though. Overall definitely worth the money, but be warned they did run out of bread for sandwiches at 2 today!

    Egg, bacon and cheese sandwich with siracha aioli
    Kaeli E.

    This was a spur of the moment breakfast place we stepped in and am so glad we did!! We shared the breakfast egg, bacon and cheese sandwich (we added siracha aioli to it) and it was amazing. The homemade bread is a major star of the show here. The sandwich came out hot and so fresh. Plenty of cheese which we loved, and the bacon was also perfectly cooked. We also got a vanilla iced latte which was pretty good. Our favorite though were our chocolate chip muffin and cookie. Both of these had plentiful chocolate chips and were baked to perfection. Sometimes it's hard to find an above average breakfast spot but I would definitely recommend stopping here. There was a bit of a line but it went pretty fast! I'll be dreaming of this meal for the next few days.

    Tuna panini
    Sara Z.

    These sandwiches are amazing. Bread is what really makes or breaks a sandwich, and their fresh baked sourdough truly makes these sandwiches delicious. I ordered the tuna melt with cheddar instead of swiss and it was incredible - the cheese was perfectly melted, the tuna wasn't fishy or overly covered in mayo, and the tomato was perfectly ripe. Compared to a lot of other lunch spots in town, the sandwiches are also very reasonably priced. Food aside, the only downsides are 1) no bathrooms (but there are bathrooms around the corner at the visitor's center) and 2) only one table on their little patio so not much outdoor seating

    I ordered a PBJ..... they gave me a butter and jelly?

Home fries need to be spectacular to impress me, and these were truly out of this world. I could eat them every day! I have no complaints about anything on my plate. The scrambled eggs were perfectly prepared (I asked for them well-done) and of course the home fries were the star of the show. My latte was also very good, and these mug it was served in was so cute. I tried a bite of my friend's chocolate chip waffle, which was recommended to us by a coworker who said it was the best on the island. I can't say I have tried any other waffles on the island, but this one was quite delicious and it would be difficult to top it. Even though it was busy late on Saturday morning, my party of two was seated right away. Sure, you're sitting close to the people next to you, but I do not mind. The place is well-decorated and has a pleasantly clean vibe about it. I am looking forward to trying dinner here as well in the near future!

Bagels with egg and cheese are kind of my go to everywhere I go and I can honestly say nothing like this has ever happened. It was kind of ridiculous lol. My perfect egg and cheese sandwich has fluffy eggs and gooey cheese which is what I'm used to but as I said this is an ice cream shop. A really expensive one. Having said this the staff were really nice about it, and washed my coat for me and offered me a stain spray. They even offered to wash my shirt and jeans if I come back later. We will probably come back for the ice cream since they were so kind and they have a really cute backstory, but for ice cream not breakfast.
