Wanted to try a new brunch place and stumbled upon Mal's in my search. We had a phenomenal experience. We were quoted a 10 min wait but ended up waiting longer -- it was still a short wait and the staff were extremely apologetic. We went with my 5 year old son whom they provided toys to occupy him with while waiting for our food. Service was polite, quick and efficient. I had a few requests -- my hollandaise sauce on the side and my son's meal topped with whipped cream and fresh strawberries. I told them not to worry if they couldn't; they remembered everything I had asked and my son felt so special. The food itself was delicious and the portions were large. I ordered a steak tip Benedict and the steak was cooked to perfection. As I was cutting a portion of the meat up to share with my son, Mal came over with a steak knife without me asking for one. I didn't realize I had been struggling so much until she did. My son said his favorite part was the steak and he is the biggest food critic of all of us. The restaurant is cute and clean. We loved all the colors and vibe of it. As we were leaving, they let my son pick out a toy to take home, so that was another special treat for him. They even have gummies for the kids to snack on while waiting. It was a great meal and we will definitely be back, would highly recommend! read more

I have never been to a better place and if I am ever back in the area I will return! When my friends and I arrived we were informed there was a small wait (~20 minutes which was reasonable on a Sunday morning) and the owner offered water to everyone waiting. When seated, all wait staff works together to serve you and they do so efficiently! The owner spotted us and noticed we were newbies and came over and chatted with us. So kind! I love when owners focus on all their patrons and don't just carer to their regulars! The breakfast was amazing. My favorite food is breakfast and I think this is my top place! I ordered the French toast and scrambled eggs. Cooked perfectly and the French toast was fluffy and incredibly tasteful. My favorite parts of this place were the decor, the GAMES AND LITTLE GIFTS they give to their little patrons while they wait and before they leave and also their comments and suggestions booklet on each table. What an amazing place. I wish them great success in their business! read more

It was a busy Sunday morning at 11. We were told a 40 minute wait which was very accurate. We were seated at the bar which had hooks for my purse. We were greeted immediately by very pleasant wait staff. They work as a team so you get excellent service that way. I couldn't decide between biscuits and gravy or eggs Benedict so I was brought a sample of the biscuit gravy and a sample of the hollandaise sauce to help me make my decision. It was a tough decision. We ended up with the biscuits and gravy today and I will be definitely going back for the eggs Benedict sometime. The tea my husband ordered was hot and his refill cup a little while later was also nice and hot. I got a flavored iced coffee which was brewed not syrup. It was excellent and I was given a free refill which is unheard of for iced coffee in most places. We received our breakfast of biscuits and gravy, two eggs over medium and home fries promptly. Eggs were cooked perfectly, the biscuits were soft and fluffy, the gravy was delicious and the home fries held up their end of the bargain they were very tasty. Part of the appeal was chatting with one of the server, who after a little bit of time we discovered was the owner. She was a lovely woman with a beautiful smile. We also chatted with one of the other servers who was just lovely. All in all an excellent experience and we plan to go back. Very cute decor. Lots of pleasant little details. The only downside was very minor it was a little warm in there. read more

Back again! Always a delightful place to enjoy breakfast! Staff are super friendly & kind and engage with you beyond just taking your order. The vibe here is different than other places. I participated in my first cow bell birthday celebration! So sweet! We had the veggie quiche & fruit cup and the veggie omelette with sausage and extra feta. It was a nice way to begin a day trip into the Tall Ships, fully nourished! read more

Love the farmhouse-chic vibe at Mal's Kitchen. The servers were friendly and efficient, and our special requests (like "well-done/burnt") were followed perfectly. The bacon and egg bagel had plenty of bacon, and the mushroom omelette was generous and perfectly cooked. The brioche toast and in-house blueberry muffin were both excellent--the muffin was light without being too crumbly. Coffee was classic diner-style and not too strong. We visited on a weekday, but weekends can mean a wait in the enclosed waiting area. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Stopped in for brekkie this weekend, actually found this gem by a yelp search. This spot is super cute inside. Everyone is very friendly, super knowledgeable of their menu and food comes out hot and quickly. The owner came by to great us and thank us for stopping in. Hospitality goes a long way, she is super sweet and was very nice to meet and get the scoop on her spot. Everything was great, the cost is very reasonable and we'll be back again. Hidden gem with a great menu, lots of options and really good food read more

First time there and I was not disappointed at all. Owner Mal, is very in tune with her guests. Takes time to say hello and introduce herself. Matt is great on the counter and checks-in for any needs you might have. The Sunrise sandwich knocks it out of the park. Small and quaint place. Great atmosphere!! Go - you won't regret it read more

Great host, staff, food and clientelle. Fast, hot & good. 12 or 15 tables so expect to wait for seating at prime time. Numerous staff gets you served quickly from an extensive, & family favorites breakfast menu. We sat at the counter. Watched the kitchen team take on tons of orders, takeouts & even corrections. Servers too. All with a smile. All under the watchful, working owner, Mal. Lucky, tasty find for us! Local gem. Don't miss. read more

I 100% recommend. read more

Their hollandaise sauce is out of this world. Fun flavors for coffee. The owner is lovely and came around to every table to genuinely check in. The whole restaurant ringing cowbells for another patron's birthday was so fun, too. This was my first visit but I'm sure it will be part of my regular rotation! read more

It is small but it has amazing food and service! The owner takes pride in her place and it shows! Love going there.

Great place! We came on Father's Day & it was super busy. Loved their check in system that shows you where you are in line. Everyone was attentive and helpful. And the food was excellent. My other half got the scramble bowl which he loved. I pieced my breakfast together with French toast, an egg, and bacon. All delicious! They even have a bar and some fantastic drinks! read more

Arrived a little bit hangry. Left super satisfied and in a very jolly mood!! No way I could not! The entire staff were attentive and gracious. My server was the best. The food was scrumptious. I had a corned beef hash omelette with cheese, home fries, and buttered rye toast. The coffee was perfect. The room was vibrant and inviting. I actually sat with a stranger so I did not take up a full table during a Sunday morning rush. The staff celebrated a young lady's birthday with every table being given a cowbell to ring along with a resounding song of HBD! The owner visited every table asking if there was anything needed and how was everything. I am looking forward to organizing a group of friends to meet there for some much needed 'like the old days' TLC that was abundant here. Good job! 5+ stars for sure. read more

Mal's Kitchen - Menu - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Abington, Massachusetts

Went to this hidden gem this past Saturday for a late breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. Both the French toast and pancakes (my friend had those), were quite tasty! They were cooked to perfection with sides of scrambled eggs with cheese, crispy bacon and cheese smothered tots. Love the tots! Staff was super friendly. The owner came over and chatted us up. It was a good dining experience. I'd definitely visit Mal's Kitchen again. Thanks for the great breakfast. P.s. we were starving when we were seated (20 minutes tops) and started digging in before I realized I didn't take pics. read more

The food was yummy and super reasonably priced. The folks who served us were friendly and efficient. The inside of the place is super cute. The owner was kind and engaging as she came around to greet guests and also help out in the dining room. I also appreciated a fully stocked lady's restroom. read more

I really wish I took pictures of our food before we ate. Everything was amazing. 10/10 recommend! Service: extremely friendly, helpful, kind, and efficient- it's a team effort from what we saw. Mal came over towards the end of our meal to check in (she introduced herself as such at the end of our conversation). Her attitude seems to set the precedent of the atmosphere in her restaurant. Food: we had a special- French toast muffin, grilled. Holy smokes- it was delicious! I had a veggie quiche, which was very tasty and the perfect size, and it came with a fruit cup. If you are someone who is used to eating larger portions, you may need to add a side, but this was just enough to feel satiated without feeling sick. My husband had a breakfast burrito with kielbasa, bacon, sausage, ham, and cheese and a side of potatoes. He also had ordered a side of chocolate chip pancakes to split. He claims that it was the best breakfast burrito he's had. My daughter had hot chocolate with whipped cream and sprinkles (this was a nice touch), and French toast sticks and bacon. Her meal came out on a cute little tray with sections for each part of her meal. She took one bite of the French toast sticks and instantly had the biggest wide eyed smile! She said the French toast sticks and the French toast muffin were rated a 10 out of 10! On top of all the great food and service, she was offered a little toy as a prize on the way out. The restaurant is very small (maybe 10ish tables), which keeps it cozy and quick. If you don't mind waiting a bit for a table, this is 100% worth the wait! read more

My wife & I have been to Mal's Kitchen in Abington for breakfast twice now and both times were absolutely the same experience served with perfection! Quaint atmosphere and a staff that is cheerful and works together! I ordered the "Just roll me out" twice too! Most places you have to choose one or two meats but at Mal's you get all 3! and for under $20!! Delicious coffee in a mug larger than others with re-fills, 2 eggs, sausage, bacon & ham - generous portions, toast too & thick cut French toast that both times I brought home half my French toast for breakfast the next day! Mal is the best and she cares about her customers! We look forward to returning many times over!! read more

They did it again at Mals. I just love this place so much. My husband and I keep coming back and they always do such a great job from start to finish. The restaurant is so warm and inviting. The decor is like you are in your relatives home. The food tastes so fresh and thoughtful. You can tell they put a lot of effort in here and that they never try to cut corners. This time we had two specials, California Benedict and a red velvet muffin. Both were incredible. read more

Are you happy? That was the question I got most from my waitress, a beautiful and super caring grandmother! If you love going to your grandmother's house and having a wonderful time with your family, I recommend this restaurant to you!

I just LOVE everything about this adorable spot! The decor/atmosphere is very inviting and the food is soo soo good!! My husband and I sat at the counter during our first visit. I ordered the "two eggs" with bacon, wheat toast and homefries. My husband ordered biscuits & gravy which were on special and then we ordered the buttermilk pancakes to share. Everything was cooked perfectly; over-easy eggs were runny, bacon was crispy, toast was nicely buttered. And those homefries!! They were well seasoned and the "oily kind" without being greasy (soo good). The pancakes were also excellent. I couldn't stop talking about them. They were nice & fluffy with a slightly crisp edge. I'm excited this place just opened in our hometown and I'm already looking forward to coming back! read more

Food service and ambiance it is always very welcoming there They always greet u as u come in and thank you when u leave.

Stumbled on this place while I was searching on Yelp and decided to give it a try. Food would be 4 stars but adding a star for the excellent service we received! The place is small inside but decor was very cute, so harder to get seating if you have more than 4 people in your party. We went on a Saturday around lunch time and the wait was about 15 min, which is not bad at all. We met Mal while we were waiting outside and she offered us water, which was great for the hot summer day. Good size menu and daily specials too. The food came out quick after we ordered. We ordered the Just Roll Me Out with Crunchy French toast and home fries, the western omelette tater tots and grilled brioche, and a single pancake to try. Portions size was good, home fries nicely seasoned, crispy tater tots, grilled brioche was nice and buttery, pancake fluffy in the middle with crispy edges, and French toast has perfect sweetness even without syrup. Service was great, especially if you have kids. They had cute dinosaur bracelets, a candy cart with treats for the ride home, and cute sippy cup for kids drinks. The waitstaff was attentive and super friendly and Mal stopped by to say hi and make sure everything was going well. Glad we found this place. Will be back to try other menu items! read more

This is a very small breakfast restaurant. The ambiance was quaint and our server was attentive. We came here at around 12PM on a Saturday and we were seated minutes after entering. We got a veggie omelet, French toast, and eggs Benedict. The eggs in the veggie omelet were a little over cooked. The eggs in the Benedict were cooked a little too over hard/over medium but I didn't specify that i wanted them over easy. I thought eggs Benedict was supposed to be over easy but that is my mistake. Prices are reasonable but not incredibly cheap compared to normal breakfast prices. Overall it's a nice restaurant that is a real hole in the wall but I don't think I'd be returning. read more

Mal's Kitchen - Omelette, home fries, rye toast. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Abington, Massachusetts

This breakfast place was actually recommended to me by another local breakfast place. We were lucky and got a spot right away at the counter but the restaurant was very full. The staff could not have been nicer. Everyone checked on us, but not in the annoying "can I eat my meal in peace" kind of way. Mal introduced herself and talked a little about the business and thanked us for coming in. We got two specials and the food was excellent. I would eat Mal 's Breakfast Burrito every day if I could. Nice and hearty with all the fillings you could want. We left very full and kept saying over and over how great everything tasted. Ambiance was very homey, it was decorated for Easter but not over the top. We absolutely will be back and wish Mal and her team nothing but success in Abington! read more

Small, intimate, friendly and so delicious. The owner, Mal is a beautiful soul. Highly recommended

I wanted to try a new spot, and it did not disappoint! A lovely young lady checked on us a couple of times, and we later found out it was Mal, the owner. It's always great to see an owner engaging with customers, introducing herself, and even encouraging us to ask for something not on the menu--if they can make it, they will! Thank you, Mal, for the wonderful breakfast and warm hospitality. We will definitely be back! read more
