Had a delicious brunch here on the way from Portland to Rockland. As someone else mentioned, this appears to be a business people's hearts are invested into, with caring staff, attention to detail in the food, and very reasonable prices for customers. We got the salmon eggs Benedict and the fruit pancakes, and without asking they split both on to two plates. The Benedict was on a particularly fresh English muffin and the pancake was full of fruit. It's a charming old-school type place with friendly staff and good vibes on a weekend morning. Many people arrived right at opening - a number of whom looked to be locals/regulars who sat at the bar - and it took some time to get our food as a result. This was understandable, just not necessarily a place to go if you're in a rush of any kind. Looking forward to returning and trying the blintzes next time I'm in Brunswick. read more

Broadway Deli - One order of salmon Benedict and fruit pancakes, split in two without asking! - American Near Me - Brunswick, Maine

Broadway Deli is located on Maine Street in downtown Brunswick. Depending on the day, parking can be tough; however, it is very walkable from Bowdoin. It is usually busy, and there is not a comfortable spot to stand until a table opens up. The service is quick and friendly, although this also depends on the day. The food was very good too. read more

Food is absolutely delicious here. Staff are always amazing and so kind. Small deli with lots to choose from. Has booths, and tables and has sidewalk seating as well. Amazing soups! Yup, I will be going back again and again read more

Our go-to for casual breakfast & lunch. The care & love put into making the food is evident. It's a cozy diner more than a deli. It's an extensive menu offering flavorful combinations that took effort, in addition to the greatest hits. Their daily specials are to die for. The service is a standout. The staff is always smiling + kind. Every.single.time. The miles they clock on their feet every day, & they treat every customer like their the most important person in the room. read more

Broadway Deli - Daily specials are awesome. - American Near Me - Brunswick, Maine

We've stopped in twice for breakfast. Their food is very fresh and service is excellent for such a busy restaurant. They have a wide selection on the menu and more specials available. This is a place locals like too. read more

It's hard to describe exactly what the best part about this place is. I felt like these people really treated us like family, and I have never once said that about any other place, not even at my own house. Really confused on how the service was so good, it was a huge highlight. The gluten free food was great! We got the French toast and proceeded to fawn over it the entire time. My girlfriend proposed marriage to the toast on the spot and the gluten free precautions were super safe for somebody with celiac. The restaurant itself was the best version of the hole in the wall idea, it didn't feel cramped, but it was cozy. Overall, this was a 6/5, I was just thrilled with the whole experience! Can't wait to go again! read more

Wonderful down home Maine! The food is great. I'm a breakfast lover. Perfect for me. The setting is cool Maine log cabin style. The service couldn't be better for such a busy spot! My only suggestion is to be open every morning! read more

My wife and I stopped in for lunch on a quiet Thursday afternoon. A very warm welcome upon entering. The restaurant is located right in the heart of downtown Brunswick. I ordered the fresh roasted turkey on whole wheat which came with chips and my wife ordered the stuffed wrap which also came with chips. Service was very friendly but slow. It was not busy so I don't know why it took a while to get our meals. Everything came out fresh and my wife really enjoyed her wrap which was made of avocado, red pepper, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and coleslaw. Prices were very reasonable. There is ample street parking and public lots around. Seems like it would be a great spot for breakfast. Maybe next time. read more

Stopped here on a Saturday and it was pretty busy. We had to wait for a a table for about 15 mins but they took our number and said they would call when the table was ready. They have a few tables and a bar. Our waitress was super sweet and very great! I got the breakfast sandwhich and it was good. My friends got the special for the day and the hash and they also enjoyed it. Great portion sizes for the price. Cute vibe. The only complaint I have is I like my home fries a little crispier! But overall I would come back! read more

Five stars,because ten is not an option.Brunch on a rainy Saturday, and the place was hopping; but everything,from the phone call when our table was ready, to our waitress Ivy, who was efficient and eboulient,to the really great breakfasts (eggs macgregor,french toast, eggs and salmon).Extremely well done and plated,in a reasonable time frame,and we left not a scrap.Would bring anyone from "away" here, to truly impress them.Thank you for a great experience! read more

Great little local restaurant. Homey, family-owned spot. Had brunch here so can only speak to what we ate. I had a breakfast sandwich with egg, bacon and cheese on an English muffin, with home fries. My daughter had French toast with fresh berries. Everything was delicious!! Server was also friendly and responsive. read more

We had a delightful breakfast here today. The service was super-friendly and attentive, and the food was wonderful. The variety of unique options makes it a great place to try new food combinations. Today I tried quiche ... with a potato crust (so it's gluten free, if you need that), pastrami, mushroom, onion, tomato, and smoked gouda ... amazing! My daughters both had French toast (one gluten free and one regular) - accompanied by real maple syrup and fresh fruit. read more

Broadway Deli is a classic neighborhood diner with bar stools at the counter and tables inside and on the sidewalk out front. Their menu includes the breakfasts, sandwiches and salads you'd expect to find and several specialties, including a daily quiche. Daily specials are what sets the Deli apart. Homemade hash, soup that people order and then buy more to take home, unique omelets, etc. Take a table out front and enjoy watching people stroll down Brunswick's Maine Street. read more

Great lunch option on Maine Street. The food is tasty and reasonably priced. They might be busy so service might be slow, but they're very nice and bend over backwards to accommodate everything you want. The chef salad was excellent. read more

Broadway diners offers a homey dining experience. While it is part diner, it also feels part cafe. The food offerings are more nuanced than you will find at your standard diner. I enjoyed the eggs with corn beef hash. The coffee was better than standard diner coffee. The atmosphere also more resembles a cafe. Server staff were pleasant and the food was filling. I would return and would also like to try to lunch. read more

My wife and I stop here occasionally for breakfast. Today however was my last. We placed our order fairly quickly and had a coffee to enjoy while we waited for our breakfast. It was busy but after waiting for a half hour we asked if there might be a problem with our order. The waitress said she would check on it. After 10 more minutes, my wife asked again where the waitress replied it's almost ready. Another 10 minutes and once again the assurance that it would be there soon. Again after about 10 more minutes she finally checks our order status. It never got into their system. No apologies were given and she acted as it were somehow our fault. I'll vote with my wallet after this horrible customer service experience. They don't know the meaning of customer service! The one star is due to they won't let me give 0 read more

the Second I walked in I could tell the dynamic and the vibe was very good. they were All so nice and especially the hostess. she was nicest person I think I have ever met and I'm not kidding. And the Food was amazing so definitely stop here trust read more

Stopped in this morning for the first time. Enjoyed one of the specials: pecan French toast served with sliced banana and sausage links. I loved the option of sitting outside. Breakfast was delicious, served quickly, and a fair price. So many different options available too. I'll definitely be back. read more

A 4 star breakfast experience in Brunswick. The restaurant we wanted to go to is closed on Monday's so we decided to try this place out. Breakfast for 3 with two glasses of orange juice, 2 omelets, an egg sandwich and an order of blueberry pancakes was $55 without tip. I am assuming that is average price for Brunswick although not sure. From time we ordered to food being served was 20 minutes except for blueberry pancakes which took 25 minutes, and they were out of fresh squeezed orange juice so ordered other option (assuming supermarket Tropicana or similar). Quality of prepared food was good. Not sure we will return but overall a good experience. read more

I'm writing this for my fiancé who left this place with a miserable experience. His words: Service as completely terrible, food was bland at best, nobody has any idea what the hell they are doing. No follow up, I waited for butter syrup cream cheese and water for ever after my food came just so I could eat it. Nobody gave me a check after I asked twice and then had to go up and pay. read more

A late bit of brekky. Blueberry Banana Walnut Pancakes with perfect scrambled eggs. Yes, there isn't a photo of the pancakes, but first the eggs: no wet or runnyness and not soaked in melted butter. Perfectly fluffy and light. Scrambled should never be a food that can make bread soggy or greasy. This place can teach more than a few places how to make scrambled eggs. Now for the Pancakes of the gods! Perfectly fluffy and slightly spongey to absorb the real maple syrup they provide you. The fresh blueberries have swelled so they pop in your mouth when you bite into them. The banana slices are intact yet blend in as a creamy texture to counter the toasty, crunchiness of the plentiful walnuts. If you find yourself in Brunswick, Maine and don't eat breakfast or lunch at The Broadway Deli (really a diner), you are doing yourself a disservice. read more

I hadn't been here for a long time. But it sure won't be a long time before I return! Everything was a 10. Soft butter. Check out that bacon - so good, cooked to perfection. The blueberry pancakes are amazing. So many blueberries, but it's the batter that sets them apart. They make their own batter which makes these cakes light and delicious. Service was quick, friendly and first rate. An outstanding experience at the Broadway Deli. Cash only! read more

I have been here a few times for breakfast with my family. And the food is fantastic. Fresh, made to order and a lot of what they serve is made from scratch, like the breakfast sausage. They always have a nice list of tasty specials to pick from, if those aren't tempting, they have a nice extensive breakfast menu. Classics and fancier classic options. They always have an great selection of teas to choose from, if you order hot tea. The space is fairly small and they have arranged it to fit the maximum amount of people inside. This can be great, because that means you aren't waiting too long outside in the cold. The challenge can be, there is hardly any personal space, even my family made a comment when people were bumping into other guests trying to get in and out of the corner where their table was located. The folks that own and/or work here are extremely nice. Very friendly and are quick on the drinks and are on the spot and ready to take orders. That's where things, in our experience start to take a turn. We appreciate the fact that homemade food, that is mostly made to order, takes time and we are always prepared for that, especially in small restaurants. With that being said, there were more than 2 occasions we waited for close to 45 minutes following placing our order for 3 people and please note, the restaurant was half full. We didn't order anything fancy or customized in our orders. They were items off of the standard menu. Not sure what happened, but I will say the wait staff was extremely apologetic during each visit this occurred. We understand things can happen, but 3 times, is not a charm. When the food did arrive, it looked good and the flavors were nice, however, it was room temperature at best. It was disappointing. The only thing that was HOT, was the tea. We really do want to like this location, because it is cute, the art on the wall is cool to look at and the people are nice and we always support local businesses, however, it may be a while before we return with family and friends. I'll keep my eye on reviews for sure to see if things improve. 2018 is a new year, I am hoping to see things turnaround here. read more

I'm the words of Jeff Spicoli ( aka Sean Penn) from Fast Times at Ridgemont High; "awesome.....totally awesome". Best blueberry pancake we have ever had: crispy edges, soft center, perfect ratio of blueberry:batter. Also had the Benedict with smoked salmon, capers, micro greens and feta - OF THE CHAIN! if you don't stop here for breakfast in the words of Sandra Bullock from Pretty Woman; BIG MISTAKE! read more

My wife and I felt lazy on this rainy, cold Saturday morning and decided to go out to breakfast. My wife suggested this place because she had heard good things. I agreed because I had never been here before and I love trying new places. I have to say this place serves a very good, solid breakfast. I got two eggs over medium with sausage patties, home fries and toast. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The sausage patties were handmade and very flavorful... probably the best part of the meal. The home fries were excellent but the serving was on the small side. Same deal with the toast.. it was an excellent locally baked bread but the meal only came with one small slice. Still, it was a very good and well prepared meal. The service was super friendly, prompt and welcoming. I will definitely be back. read more

Located in a nice spot in downtown Brunswick the menu is fantastic. We were walking around and had our dog with us and loved the outside seating. Very dog friendly as they even had a water bowl set out for dogs. They have a set menu and a specials board. I went with the poached bowl which was egg mixed over smoked salmon, tomatoes and home fries. My dining companion got a very unique veggie Reuben. For drinks, we tried the wine and mimosa. I didn't care that much for either one. The food was great. I especially loved his pickle - yes, the pickle. Had a very nice taste. Prices were great and we saw loads of people coming in and out so it has to be a popular spot. I did feel a little rushed at the end as I think it was near closing and they were quick to take our plates and give us the bill. I'd return again for sure though. read more

We were in Brunswick for a few days recently. We were so happy to find this gem for breakfast! I thoroughly enjoyed the french toast. My husband enjoyed a scrambled egg special with salmon on the side. We had to go back the next day to further explore their menu. I had a blueberry muffin - which was lightly grilled - wow! My husband had an omelet with home fries. Also very good. The diner is quaint and just a real jewel of a place. Service was wonderful and friendly. If we get back to Brunswick again, we will definitely plan another breakfast or lunch there. read more

Coming here for years. The Benedict is amazing as well as many other options. The home fries are the best! Service, atmosphere, and food are all fantastic! Homemade soups,goodies, imaginative specials are only a part of what makes this a can't miss establishment!! read more

Best gluten free breakfast in town BY FAR!! They have many options, everything is super fresh (they even have fresh squeezed orange juice), and they use wildflours bakery gluten free bread for toast rather than the generic gross stuff. Such an adorable ambiance too! read more

A delightful brunch al fresco. Kit is a funny and terrific server with fascinating stories to regale. How can scrambled eggs come out so moist and tasty? My eggs with feta, mushrooms and scallions may sound pedestrian but it is fabulous, with chunks of great cheese. My wife's fruit cup was more like a farm stand, fresh and bursting with berries of all sorts. Large portions too. Nice ambiance in a cool college town. I highly recommend The Broadway Deli; it's indeed deli-sh. read more

I had a really good Reuben at the Broadway Deli today. I was expecting to walk into a deli but it's actually more of a restaurant. That was okay because I was looking for lunch and I was happy with what I got. Unlike some other reviewers, I found the service to be quick and friendly. The only thing that could be better was the floor. The old linoleum or vinyl tiles are falling apart and efforts to keep the floor clean are being hampered by the condition of the floor. In a way it's not so bad because everything about the place (especially the ceiling) seems very retro, but the floor is too far gone and hurts the ambiance. But I'd go back in a heartbeat, it was really nice and I'm glad I went. read more

Broadway Deli - Storefront - American Near Me - Brunswick, Maine

This place has some of the best pancakes I've ever had. Fantastic and friendly service. I will always hit this spot on my way to Acadia.

Consistently the most delicious, well-prepared breakfasts and lunch in Midcoast Maine. Family owned since 1988 and it shows, from the owner's amazingly fluffy pancakes stuffed with wild Maine blueberries to the kind and lovely waitresses, her daughters. Don't miss out on their homemade corned beef or their 3-5 soups homemade daily. Smoked organic tomato soup to die for and luscious French onion. An easy hop off Route 1 up or down the coast, and a favorite among locals. I wasn't paid to write this !! I just rarely come across an affordable eatery with such great food. read more

The wait staff is very nice but also very slow. This is a small place run by people who don't really know how to run a restaurant but are trying. I've been here a couple times and there are always some strange customers here too. The food is honestly not any better than anyone can make at home. The only thing that was good was the fruit cup (good variety of fresh fruit). The pancakes and omelette are edible but not good. read more

Not worth waiting 45 minutes for our food. Just ok! My husband lifted his plate after he ate and food fell off from under it. Will not be back. read more
