But that would've been my error, as even the plain was truly delicious and had a great texture when heated up. It paired so well with the sausage and egg! It's one of the better breakfast sandwiches I've had anywhere this year! I loved my bean-flavored (rather than syrup-enhanced) iced coffee too. It was great to have multiple plant-based milks to choose from. The decor was very cute--love the wood look--and there was an impressive array of baked goods... Including scones, which looked amazing. I just wish they had at least one dairy-free option! They do have a GF bagel. The place is located towards the back of the complex so you might want to park in the back, as opposed to where I parked in the front. Friendly service. I'll definitely be back to try more coffee flavors. There was only one other table of people present when I arrived at 9 AM. But by the time my friend and I left, the place was packed.

They have five other locations across Massachusetts--definitely worth checking out!

I was really torn about how to rate this restaurant since there are so few options in Mendon -- I'm…read moreprobably one of the old timers who just misses having Lowell's in its old, convenient location. I think the thing to remember about places like this in this area is that there are lots of breakfast/lunch diner places but they call close at 2 or 3pm and they, for the most part, are a little pricey. So, let's start with the good parts: there are lots of food options, including many veggie and even some gluten-free choices, which is important when you have a family member with food restrictions. Their espresso is decent. It's a medium roast, so not as dark and earthy as Starbucks, but still pretty good. I've been here with family and friends, and everyone has always enjoyed their food. They hire locals, including many high school kids and recent grads, which I appreciate. Now, the drawbacks that made me hover between 2 and 3 stars... First, the wait time. There is no reason it should take so long to order or to get your food. There are tons of staff here. I don't know what's going on that it takes so long, but it does. Secondly, the tables and booths are not cleaned often or well. There are always crumbs, coffee rings, spilled water, used napkins, etc., either on seats or on the table. Even when people bus their own tables, which they do, they need to be wiped down regularly, and they aren't. The floor was sticky and "crunchy" last time I was there, and I have to say the sticky floor thing is a pretty regular occurrence. And, the last three times I used the bathroom, it was either not clean or not stocked. When I visited with my father a few months ago, I ordered coffee, and he had coffee with a sandwich. His food arrived with the wrong items, and the bread was not toasted, as he had requested. It also took more than 30 minutes. If they could speed up the process and assign one of their many staff members to continually clean the busy seating area, I think that would bump this up to four stars easily.

There's a little mural on the wall of an umbrella that's a great spot for a selfie. The service was pleasant and prompt. So, as for the donuts. Visually, they look very good. Large donuts with various toppings. I personally found them to be very dry and dense. The specialty one that I had was a peanut butter filling with chocolate krispies like topping. It was okay- not something I would order again. Again, seemed dry with not much filling. I also got the honey glazed, the one with fruity pebbles on it, chocolate icing with sprinkles and a chocolate with glaze. I think it was over $20 for 6 donuts. If I pay that much, I want to be wow-ed by the donuts, and I just wasn't. Overall, I wouldn't make the trip to go again. Lots of other places with better donuts.

I've been there twice now, and both times, the bagels were delicious (which is A LOT coming from a native New Yorker.) I have yet to find comparable bagels in the area, and I'm not sure where they get theirs from, but it is worth the visit. During my first visit, I also tried some of their iced coffee; I had the chocolate raspberry flavor. It wasn't bad, and there are several other flavors to choose from as well. They are currently offering indoor seating, and they have a couple of tables set up right out front as well. It's not a large cafe, but there were some patrons sitting inside. There's also a gift store type situation attached adjacent to the cafe, as well as a couple of shelves with books available to purchase. I briefly browsed around, and they seem to have a mix of old and new, for kids and adults but there isn't a huge selection as it's a small shop to begin with. Still a nice touch!
