My wife and I visited on a very busy Thursday morning and had to wait approximately 20-25 minutes but it was worth it. It's a nice, quaint café located a short walk from Perkins Cove. My wife and I sat at the counter and enjoyed watching how friendly the staff were to each other. My wife ordered 2 scrambled eggs, a fruit cup, and a blueberry muffin. I ordered the French toast with strawberries and a side of sausage. We each had coffee as well. My wife liked her eggs mentioned and the muffins were fresh and served warm. The fruit cup was fresh and a nice portion. My French toast consisted of 4 slices topped with plenty of strawberries. The sausage consisted of 3 links. Tasty. As coffee snobs, we would say the coffee was good. The prices were competitive for the area. The service was very good and friendly. There was a public parking lot located close but based upon the price $25, you better be making a day of it at Perkins Cove or downtown Ogunquit. read more

Absolutely delicious breakfast. My son said the blueberry French toast was the best breakfast of his entire life. Restaurant is adorable. Service is great, and the prices were reasonable. read more

Literally breakfast perfection. Everything was perfect. If you like the sound of the blueberry French toast get it, it's amazing, otherwise, they know how to make eggs too! Friendly, adorable, and if you get there early no wait. In October anyway! Then go walk the Marginal Path for a perfect morning. read more

Cove Cafe - Eggs Benedict with corned beef hash - American Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

Tiny restaurant with great food, good menu, delicious food and wonderful staff. Couldn't ask for more! Just a short walk to everything in PC read more

Was decent. Had the hash special which was good, in comparison to Maine Diner. Just wasn't much there. The potatoes were pretty bland to me, but the wife seemed to be good with them. Smaller pieces, cooked longer - crisped up would be a lot better. Just me - I'm sure plenty of others like them the way they are, so who cares. If you're in the area to check out Perkins Cove, then worth going in. Just wouldn't plan to make a trip just for the breakfast since there's no parking available and the food may not warrant the parking cost. read more

We loved this place so much that we decided to come here multiple times for out breakfasts well staying in Maine. The freshly ground coffee is delicious and a great way to start the day. On our first stop there we were lucky enough to get the outside eating area and my wife and I enjoyed the blueberry waffles and eggs and hash. We always share our dishes and loved every bite the fresh blueberries on the waffles were divine. The hash, eggs and home fries were all seasoned and cooked perfectly and soooo delicious. On our second trip there we tried the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich which was also on levels. If you're looking for a breakfast spot on Ogunquit look no further although I'm sure if you're in the area though everyone will recommend this place for breakfast. read more

My wife and I found this place one morning looking for some breakfast, and really enjoyed our meal. It has now become our go-to breakfast spot. It's a great location, and a great excuse to walk along marginal way. The staff are friendly, and have a good balance between being friendly and keeping the tables cycling through on busy days. With that being said, I don't think we have ever felt rushed! The food is delicious, omelettes are fluffy, bacon is crispy, sausages are good. For those who like a sweet treat the waffles and pancakes are also delicious. Finally, the breakfast sandwiches are pretty delicious also. This place does a great job with breakfast and we will happily wait for a table anytime we visit the area! read more

Was very impressed with the food at this small spot as you enter the Perkins cove area. The lobster omelette was packed with flavorful lobster. All other dishes ordered got rave reviews from the people I was with. A few notes: no parking and it's $15-$20 to park in a lot. No indoor dining as of late August. There will probably be a wait for a table at peak times. read more

Best Breakfast in town Worth waiting if busy Great management and lovely Servers. Good portions and great Quality. See you Memorial Day Weekend. read more

My all time favorite breakfast is Eggs Benedict so when I see it on a breakfast menu, it's usually what I order. If you're going to offer eggs, Benedict then you need to know how to properly poach an egg since a runny yolk is crucial to the success of eggs Benedict. Unfortunately, the kitchen staff of the Cove Cafe have not mastered this technique. The poached eggs were slightly overcooked, which meant half of the yolk was runny and half was cooked. This is sacrilege for this dish! If the egg is not perfectly poached, the dish is a failure. When I asked for hot sauce, I got a single take out package of it. The accompanying home fries were unexceptional but I find that to be standard at most breakfast joints. Service was prompt and professional. The place is small with a diner like feel to it. Also, keep in mind that yelp says private lot parking......but that consists of 2 parking spots so get there at opening if you want one of them! Not recommended....especially if you want eggs Benedict! read more

Great breakfast spot. Service is on point...cute little homey breakfast place. I own a breakfast place in Massachusetts so i know good breakfast food when i eat it read more

Small but good food at reasonable prices. I did takeout breakfast sandwiches and they were great. Food came out fast although it wasn't packed this morning like it is during prime season. read more

Breakfast was perfect. Service was great. A very nice spot in the cove for a hearty start to your day.

Definitely a must! It was worth the wait!!! My fiancé and I absolutely loved this place, food was AMAZING. We are from out of state and wish there was a place like this near our home. Will definitely be back!! read more

Cove Cafe - American Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

This place is very good, and a top-notch breakfast place. That said, I'm not sure it deserves the hype that it gets on Yelp. The food is good, the servers are nice and the place is clean. That said, there's nothing extraordinary. The menu isn't terribly expansive/diverse, and much of the food isn't special. For instance, the molasses oat bread tastes like whole wheat and the potatoes aren't great. This isn't a knock. I just don't see any reason to make it a 5 star place like many many have. Still, a very good place and one I'd definitely recommend and come back to. read more

Without even eating this could have been one of my breakfast experiences ever. Drove from the other part of town only to see an opening in one of the two front spots. Walked in to a cute New England costal vibe and Tennessee whiskey playing on the "radio" (engage full movie in my head experience). The knotty pine paneling and straight backed chairs complete the vision The blueberry muffin is perfect, soft and airy. CRAB CAKES AND EGGS?!?!?? Is that even legal. YES YES it is and delicious . Every thing you want at breakfast at the beach. This place is the whole . If you are in Ogunquit and don't come here at least once before you die, you will have live a shadow life. Don't let that happen to you read more

Great little place for breakfast. Small menu but packed with flavor. Highly recommend the crab cake sandwich (skip the cheese for full crab flavor). The blueberry pancakes were delicious and the veggies used in the other sandwich were fresh! Plus it's right in the heart of Perkins Cove - so once you fuel up, you can shop it off! read more

It's good for what it is but I didn't find it to be enough to come back. Pride themselves on being friendly but honestly that was not the vibe. read more

Excellent food and excellent service!! Our server was very attentive and handled our requests very quickly. I would definitely recommend this place, at least for breakfast as that is what we had. read more

Went here for breakfast and I ordered a bacon egg (over medium) and cheese on a bagel. The waitress told me there's no way the cook will make my egg over medium on a breakfast sandwich. So, he made the egg and put it next to the bagel. I just can't believe scrambled was my only choice, or I had to assemble the sandwich if I wanted over medium which was what I did. I won't ever return to this place. read more

My husband and I had breakfast here on our last trip to Ogunquit, and it was absolutely delicious! This is my dad's favorite place in the area to get breakfast, so I wanted to try it out. I had the crab, asparagus and cheddar omelet. I'm not a big fan of cheddar so I asked for mozzarella instead, which was happily accommodated, and very tasty! The crab meat was very fresh and the asparagus was perfectly prepared. I'm not normally a fan of hash browns, and even those were delicious. My husband devoured his eggs and bacon and said it was perfect. The service was very pleasant and prompt. The inside is absolutely adorable, and you have a beautiful view of the very beginning of Perkins Cove. My husband and I frequent the area during the summertime, so we'll definitely be back on our next visit! read more

Cove Cafe - Crab and asparagus omelet! - American Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

My family and I were on vacation last summer, and we were super hungry and ready to eat! We saw A LOT of great reviews, so we popped in to see what the rave was all about. Parking was horrifying, but it was worth it. Let's just say we didn't regret it! I had french toast, and I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was, it was delicious! My family said they enjoyed it as well! The place was wonderful, and looked very cozy, but it was super busy! It's worth going, but you have to arrive early to get a good parking spot. - Kim M. read more

Stellar breakfast place in Perkins Cove Ogunquit. It's small and you'll have to wait, but it's well worth it. The veggie omelet is to die for, all fresh ingredients and the basil puts it over the top. The corn beef hash is homemade and worth every bite. Excellent coffee and I thinks it's the best breakfast joint in the area. . read more

Breakfast was good. Home made corn beef hash is always a favorite. My gf had the crab egg sandwich. Very good as well.

Great food as always! The staff is always nice and super helpful. Would highly recommend this spot.

Amazing. Crab cake Benedict was phenomenal!! I didn't even get a chance to take a picture.

Food was excellent and generous portions. Husband had hash n eggs special of the day. The blueberry French toasts was yummy with a homemade blueberry sauce. read more

I went to this restaurant with three other people. We were all very impressed. The restaurant had very fast service and everybody there was very friendly. My food was super flavorful and the French toast that I got was very fluffy and the strawberries were very fresh. The maple syrup was so good but you do have to ask for it. my fruit cup was also very fresh and everybody else seems to really enjoy their food. I had a bite of the blueberry pancake and it was very fluffy and rich. definitely recommend stopping by this place!!! read more

Cove Cafe is the type of restaurant/diner that I would love to find in my current hometown of Orlando. We would be there every weekend. My fiance and I are not morning people so getting to Cove Cafe before 11am was no easy feat. But it was well worth it! The service was super friendly and welcoming. I loved the cute, homey feel of the cafe and the adorable coffee mugs. I tried the crab cakes and the blueberry waffle and both were amazing. The waffle was perfectly made and easily in my top two best waffles ever. And the blueberry sauce would make anything a winning dish. My fiance had the blueberry French toast which he also raved about. I highly recommend a visit to Cove Cafe. read more
