The space was new & shiny & the staff were very accommodating explaining the way they serve your meals, ie 1/2 sandwich & bowl of soup or salad. Many choices & food was delivered hot.... This time I tried something different, Mexican nachos, chicken, avocado & an egg. Also very good but the nachos were gummy & really ruined my meal. Everything was coated in red sauce which was tasty but plated sloppy like they just slapped it together. Our server was very concerned because he recognized it as he was placing my dish in front of me. We had waited a while because they were busy (a good thing) & we're ready to leave.but I had ordered the cheese & broccoli soup so I didn't go hungry....it might be a while before we go back!

In a town where the "best" breakfast place for years was the truck stop, and that lacks a really…read moreGOOD diner/breakfast place, this was a total surprise win. First Watch is a breakfast/brunch/lunch place that closes by 2:30pm and serves breakfast, lunch and surprisingly, drinks (well, not so surprising, brunch means Bloody Marys or mimosas, doesn't it?) The decor is California modern with a kind of garage-cool-bistro vibe. The tables are comfortable, the chairs slide easily and it's not too noisy inside. Outside dining as well. Friendly servers and plenty of them available to tend to the tables. The lunch tends to be quite busy. The menu? Well, there were too many things I liked to make an easy choice. Sandwiches, four of them come so you can order a half and a soup or half salad. The sandwiches are large. There is a veggie and a turkey burger as well. Soups included tomato basil and broccoli cheddar, but the broccoli soup ran out so chowder was on offer instead. Some food is vegan and some is gluten free but they don't offer non-shared surfaces or fryers so if you can't have cross contamination, you're out of luck. Of course "traditional" breakfast is available, avocado toast, eggs benedict, eggs-and-meat, pancakes, waffles, strawberry French toast, and I can't believe it, biscuits and gravy, either as a breakfast with eggs and potatoes or as a side. More on this later. There are also tacos (barbacoa) omelets, frittatas, chimichurri steak and eggs, and French toast. Also wraps and bowls. The emphasis is on (more or less) healthy or at least trendy, so the sausage was turkey sausage in the biscuit and gravy. We ordered one roast beef and horseradish sauce sammie with a side of salad or soup, the soup was chowder (it was...ok. A Bostonian would have something to say, but it was fine if you ignore the alien red bell pepper that a New Englander would raise an eyebrow at.) The sandwich had sauteed onion, havarti cheese and argula and was absolutely delish. My dining partner devoured this (I did get a bite to verify its excellence.) The soup was a good sized cup. I had the biscuit and gravy side. Plenty of fresh black pepper and the turkey sausage was well-seasoned. The biscuit was buttery. It could have been served hotter (it was lukewarm) but this is a perpetual problem I have with US restaurants serving less than piping hot food that will cool off too much as you eat. It was just on the point of being "not ok" so I ate it all. I think they poured the gravy out and it sat, waiting on the sandwich, which is why it cooled down. However, it was really good. I haven't had good biscuits and gravy since I moved back from the Midwest and this hit the spot. The menu prices are reasonable, especially considering what you get; well prepared and interesting food that isn't run-of-the-mill breakfast or brunch. I'm looking forward to another visit and trying out more of the menu if I can resist the biscuit and gravy.

You could barely even notice there was any chicken in there because it was flavorless.... They gave us salsa in a Heinz packet, and then they gave us sour cream on the side. The salsa was like something that you get at Wawa with the peel off foil top. Nothing done with Love or unique ". Would highly recommend you avoid this place if you're looking for something special and different. Very average and the employees were fairly nice to me.

First visit to Derby Bar & Grill for lunch, at the location which replaced Two Stones Pub in…read moreMiddletown. It's a second location, the other being in Harrington. The name is "Bar & Grill" and the menu, which is vast, looks like a combination of bar, grill, and diner. First the menu: You're given two. One is breakfast and the other is lunch-dinner. The menu is highly colored and a bit hard to read on the dark color background with white text so at first, you may not realize the scope of their offerings. Everything from salad, soup, sandwiches, wraps, flatbreads, full breakfast to "legendary steaks", liver and onions, Angus burgers, BBQ and other diner specials. You'd be well advised to look up the menu online before coming to get a sense of the scope. The setting: definitely "bar." Many tables are high tops with heavy iron bar seating with backs. Hard to move. If you don't like sitting at high tops, you'll be fighting for the booths or tables. I personally hate high top seating, so it wasn't the most comfortable place for me. The food: It was lunchtime, so we ordered a turkey club and a Reuben. I had the club. It was on toasted rye. No mayo, no condiments on dry toast at all. And none offered or suggested and no mayo packet on the side. The bacon was cooked in advance, cold, tough and congealed. The turkey was the cut-off-roasted-breast kind therefore dry as can be, and could have desperately used some kind of condiment. The single piece of lettuce was so limp, it could have been used as a flag. The tomato was good. I made it through maybe 1/4 of the sandwich and gave up after eating the tomato. Pepsi products on the fountain, only Pepsi Zero not Diet Pepsi. Someone at a nearby table ordered some kind of grilled meat on a bone (couldn't tell from the menu what it was) and it looks very appetizing (crusted with something, maybe a porkchop?) The menu is crazy long but they couldn't make an edible sandwich. So that makes me wonder if they are over-ambitious, cooking or if it's a place where you'd better know what to order and what to avoid. I think, from all the rave reviews, people are ordering other things that may be more palatable. Like breakfast, burgers and fried food. Am I being critical? Yeah. Yeah, I am. Because if you can't make an edible turkey club at a bar & grill, what else are you not proficient at? The Reuben, I didn't try it, but my dining partner didn't eat much of it and didn't opt to take the rest home. It looked pale and not very appetizing. The sweet potato fries we both had were ok. Compared to the sandwiches we've tried recently at some other new places in Middletown, these sandwiches were sub-par. The waitstaff were efficient.

The vegetables also didn't seem particularly fresh, which made it disappointing overall. I know dietary restrictions can be challenging for restaurants to accommodate, and I appreciate the effort to create an alternative option. However, the final dish just didn't come together for me.
