The ambiance is very low key, easy to keep clean tables, chairs and floor. The coffee is good. Pancakes are huge. I asked twice for real maple syrup but unless she forgot to charge me for it, I think I got 'pancake' syrup, which is made of corn syrup and I'm not supposed to eat that. Note to self, if you have a food sensitivity or allergy, be sure they know it because I just tried to order according to my needs and didn't spell it out as I should have. The full order of Irish breakfast - an eggs bene over corned beef hash - is HUGE. A half order is absolutely enough for your average size breakfast. I ordered two pancakes, and one would have been enough for my appetite. Another note to self - portions are big. On street parking. Single restroom off dining area. Friendly staff. Good food and coffee. Definitely worth a stop for a home style breakfast.

Whenever we go out to eat I always suggest coming here because I look forward to trying new things but also love sticking to some of my favorites like the g Vegas nachos and southwest bowl. They also have the best fried pickles around. Even when the restaurant is busy, the servers are attentive and friendly. I love the ambience and that they have local artists Work posted all the time. I am huge in supporting small sellers and small businesses and I love that they do that too. It's also great that they let you pick from their own flights or you can choose your own!

Gardner Ale House at Moon Hill Brewing gave us a nice evening of good music, cold brews, good food,…read moredollar oysters! (Apr 2026). We came here to try out their Monday Blues, and happened on their Monday Buck-a-Shuck oysters! We found a long room with over 70 seats set up at tables for four that looked combine-able, about 20 seats at the bar and at 2-seat hightops, both rooms with a wall of windows. The band set up in the bar window, but sit where you like, we found that we could hear the band everywhere! There's also a small enclosed outdoor patio with about 30 more seats at umbrellaed tables. The Jim Atkinson band is a foursome of Boston-area musicians that has been cranking out great blues, rock, & roots since 2017. We loved them, especially enjoying the creative keyboard and a real live sax! Their music selection was amazing, more their favorite solid blues than old-standbys, so we didn't recognize every song. But that's real music :-) The $1 New England oysters were big and juicy! They started at 4pm before we got there, and they still had plenty for us after 7pm! They say the variety changes with availability. These were not overly salty. This was dinner for us, and we started with their hot-skillet "Mexican Corn Dip" with zingy pico de gallo salsa and fresh crisp corn tortilla chips. We got a "warm energy" bowl of quinoa, fresh tart cranberries, baby spinach, roasted sweet potato, and goat cheese, flavored with some scallions and garlic-butter. Huge, delicious, and very satisfying! The Fish 'n Chips was a full-foot-long full of their own Moon-Hill-beer beer-battered haddock, piping-hot fries, fresh crunchy coleslaw, with tartar sauce. Yep, Huge, delicious, and satisfying! We tried their parmesan-garlic wings, but that wasn't our favorite. They were ok, but not crispy which we expected. Came with crunchy celery and creamy bleu cheese. Of course we leaned on their in-house Moon Hill brewery for several dry IPAs, their luscious Candy Mountain blueberry sour, (which could have been colder), and a very tasty non-alcohol Blueberry (Not)-tini, a bubbly beverage crafted with "Reàl Blueberry Purée", fresh lemon juice and lemonade. This is a nice community bar, brewery, restaurant, and patio. We are already looking forward to their big Octoberfest!

The environment was extremely clean and the service, excellent . Our coffee cups were refilled before we had the chance to ask .

I wasn't able to eat it all but it was delicious ! My friend ordered a veggie omelette w cheese , toast and home fries . She said her meal was delicious as well. It was also a lot of food , so you don't leave feeling hungry . We treated ourselves and took a slice of their beautifully displayed cake home for later . We were told that the cakes were all made from scratch. It was layered w their home made whipped cream, fresh fruit, and almond slices. The cake was scrumptious! Very fresh, very light and not too sweet . I would certainly recommend Prince Cafe to everyone looking for a great breakfast , in a clean and friendly environment! They also serve lunch which will be my next visit and review .

This most recent visit, however, was a total disaster. We went SPECIFICALLY for the seafood chowder that was advertised as a special and we went at 5:15pm because the couple we were with said the service is terrible and gets worse as the evening goes on. Most of the tables were occupied but there was an opening and we were seated after a few minutes. Before we sat, we asked if they still had seafood chowder and were assured they did. The table was bare. About 10 minutes later, the waitress brought salads. (We hadn't ordered our meals yet.) A few minutes later, she brought a carafe of water and 4 red Solo cups to the table. We still had not ordered and had no silverware or dressing for the salads. We were finally given a carafe of dressing for the salads that gets passed from table to table. How sanitary is that? Still no silverware to eat the salads we were given but hadn't ordered. The owner was walking around chatting while the single waitress was fighting tears and trying to do everything herself. How shameful - the owner could have cleared and set the empty tables and done whatever she could to help this poor overwhelmed young girl. Now at 5:45 she came to take our order. Two of us were getting the seafood chowder for dinner, the other two ordered it for an appetizer. Still no utensils. She came back after 10 minutes to tell us they were out of the chowder. That was the reason we went there. So, at 6pm (45 minutes after arriving) we left without eating which we couldn't have done anyway without utensils. My heart breaks for the waitress and I am appalled that the owner didn't help her at all. We will not be returning. If there was an option to leave a negative star review, I would have done so, but one star is the lowest option available.
