Stopped by The Grind House on my way through from Bar Harbor to Boston Logan International…read more I was excited to see an impossible breakfast sandwich on the menu as well as a peanut butter mocha. Seriously, two of my favorite things to see on a coffee house menu. That said the execution was a bit off for me. The Impossible breakfast sandwich was served on an insubstantial bun (the type that is more air than anything) and was overall pretty basic. Their signature sauce mentioned in several dishes, seems to be thousand island or maybe tartar sauce? Either way, it wasn't my favorite. The peanut butter mocha was also a bit of a miss for me. I wasn't a fan of either their chocolate or their espresso (or the peanut butter flavor they used, for that matter). The shop itself is quirky and comfortable. We were able to get a spot by the windows, which was nice and the service was lovely. It would definitely be a good and comfortable spot for working and it could be that had I ordered differently, it may have been more my cup of tea (or coffee, as they case may be). But for what I ordered, it was a bit of a swing and a miss.

Walked in and wow, lots to read on the menu! Which can be good and bad depending on how much time…read moreyou want to spend reading menus. I chose a egg and cheese on a croissant bun and a caramel turtle latte. I came here because it had been highly recommended, but I have to say, I expected more, but depends on what you like, right?? Plenty of seating, centrally located in the city, easy parking, and plenty of coffee concoctions to try out. My coffee was missing the whipped cream, but oh well. The froth for the latte was odd, it deflated super quickly, not sure what happened there. And the sweetness was sweet, but it was missing that caramel turtle flavor I thought I was going to get. For me, this was meh. I expected something more decadent. My egg sandwich was good. Basic. Not a real croissant either. It was a croissant bun of some sort. It seemed, well, basic, or economical. But it was filling and the egg was good. I also have to say that when I departed, I smelled like a convenience store that sells those hotdogs on rollers... I smelled all day, I had to wash my hair to get the smell out. I also have to mention the heavy music that was playing. It was obscene and it was loud. So loud it made it challenging to order and I did eat my meal quickly and leave. It was a Tuesday morning around 9 am. But hey I am getting older so this may not have been a good choice for me.

Maybe that's because of the duck fat? The strawberry margarita was great except for the rim, I ordered a sugar rim and the rim tasted fully of citric acid, and personally I don't like citric acid with my margs. The screwdriver was okay, it's a screwdriver for sure. The blackberry martini was delicious and went down really smoothly. It's pretty expensive too, over $100 for two entrees and three drinks. Decent spot.

Last night was our anniversary celebration. Could not have been more enjoyable. Service was excellent. Our server was a young woman who was in her first week of unsupervised service. Did not miss a beat. She had a remarkable grasp of the details of the menu, describing the seared Ahi tuna dish to a "T". During our meal the Manager checked in with us to ask if they were meeting our expectations. Nice touch. Excellent bar cocktails. Wine by the bottle as well as the glass and "jug". The bottle list is varied and pretty extensive. We had a Rombauer Chardonnay which paired perfectly with the slightly spiced menu items we ordered. Portions are substantial. Take home boxes available. Last note, the pacing of the service was totally focused on our pace. We were never rushed and between each course had a moment to relax and talk. Very, very nice.

I ordered the baked scallops without the béchamel sauce (no gluten or dairy for me), my sister ordered the full-on baked scallops, and my mother ordered the fish and chips. My favorite drink (since living in LA and Boston) has been the French 75 - I was so pleased to see it on their drink menu! I would not recommend the El Diablo. The jalapeño tequila was beyond overpowering. We tried watering it down but it was not drinkable. The Amaretto Alexander was a delectable dessert beverage. We were disappointed with the service. We found ourselves looking around for our server and she seemed rather disingenuous. We all have off days. I still enjoy going there and I like the atmosphere. Like I said, maybe it was an off day. It was my birthday and we were excited to enjoy a night out for dinner after a great movie. There aren't that many options for gluten-free and vegan (if that's your thing). When the weather warms - you can sit outside and enjoy the evening with friends and loved ones.
