Delicious breakfast. . We had omelets. Meat lovers and vegetable. Both full of delicious food. Waitresses kind and professional. Restaurant clean and tidy. Fresh flowers on the table created a warm and welcoming atmosphere read more

This place is spacious and roomy. They have music in the background - so it is not silent- that is a good thing. The service was good - although I wish they checked in more for coffee. The food was not that hot- the hash could of used another minute in the oaThe hash was not what I expected - it was almost sweet potato casserole - not much else. The cornbread was grilled and tasty. The portion of ham was a bit small. But the poached eggs were perfectly done - soft and runny that gave a great flavor to the hollandiase. Overall good experience. read more

I live in Uxbridge, Ma but, come down for breakfast every 4 weeks. Meeting friends and having a good experience together. I am gluten intolerant and Modern Bistro has GF items that are delicious! Lots of choices and never a complaint! read more

Grabbed some takeout breakfast for myself and a couple others. The parfait with cinnamon and fresh fruit was delicious, my office mates also enjoyed their combo meal and crepes. Only complaints would be the toast was not buttered, and I had asked for turkey bacon but received pork bacon *Shucks*. read more

Love this place!! Family of 5 easily accommodated. Prices are definitely decent and good variety of food. Always taste fresh and authentic which is hard to find. It can get busy so we try to go late am or before 830/9. Staff is always kind even when busy or short staffed they communicate and try their best! read more

It was a Saturday morning around 9:15am. Looking for a breakfast place where we don't have to wait forever. Did a quick search and Modern Bistro came up. We pulled up, ample parking. Good sign! we entered and there were only two other parties seated. Nice modern look with a slight rustic feel. Our waitress was very nice (a Bryant student) and quick service! When I looked a the menu- they have some interesting items. Not just a basic breakfast place. I did stick basic. I went with the 2 eggs with bacon and a slice of French toast. Pretty simple. Nothing to shout from the mountains over but I can say- the home fries are flavorless. Could use some help there. In regards to Covid- hand sanitizer is available. All staff were wearing masks, we were socially distanced from other patrons and even the cooks we could see when the door swung open were wearing masks! That impressed my husband since he has worked in hot kitchens previosuly. read more

Found this place while out cruising, it looked very promising. It is a very family type of atmosphere. We were seated quickly, but did have a bit of a wait waiting on the waitress. Everything looked and sounded so good. My husband got breakfast which he said was delicious!! I got the croque monsieur, the bread was a little dry, and the mustard a bit thick, but otherwise really good, it came with house made potato chips which I usually hate, but there were delicious, crispy and not overly greasy. I received a phone call just as the food came so I didn't get a picture of my husbands food. read more

Modern Bistro - Sweet potato hash benedict and stuffed croissant french toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cumberland, Rhode Island

Nice lunch stop. There aren't many sit-down dining options in this area. This one is a keeper.

Ordered two egg sandwiches; one over easy the other fried hard. Both came out identical (cooked over medium). Also, griddle and crepe section of menu says that half orders are available. However, when I ordered a half order of the pancake roll I was told they couldn't do half order. Server was friendly but a breakfast place should be able to cook eggs to order and if you offer something then make good in it. They could have offered me the full order for the half order price or at least explained why they couldn't offer what they claimed they ordered. read more

Food was great . Very long wait with not full tables . Seems like maybe short staffed . Wait for food once seated was not long

What I appreciate about modern bistro is that it is a Lot nicer than your typical greasy spoon. It's clean and has a fresh modern feel vs feeling kind of dingy like most breakfast diners. The food is decent and what you would get at any bfast diner but they have some good daily specials that are always a little nicer, such as French toast made from sweet bread! They also have a full bar if you are looking for brunch! It's very busy in the weekends so you will wait: see the FULL BAR, but weekdays it's just a walk in. My only room for improvement would be for the kitchen to plate the breakfast potatoes first, they're always so hot when you get them they burn your mouth and you can't eat them, so plating it first will give it a minute or two to cook off before it gets to your table! read more

Woke up a late on a Thursday morning and all I wanted was brunch!! Did a quick search on yelp and came across this hidden gem! When my family and I walked in we noticed how cute and clean the location was. Started off with $7.99 mimosas they were sweet and strong (just the way I like them!). I made up my own omelet which had American cheese, tomatoes, caramelized onions, peppers, and pesto. I can not describe how amazing this omelette was (my mouth just watered up!). If you are looking for a late delicious breakfast I HIGHLY recommend this place! read more

A quiet eatery with friendly staff. The food here is goes from average to above average depending upon what you order. I have never had a bad meal here. read more

Just ok. Home style food but nothing to write home about. I wish it was better because I live very close by.

The dish was pretty good but the coffee bun was not great and the waffle was ok But everything else was delicious read more

Nothing to rave about here. Pretty boring breakfast and the hash browns tasted like they came from a bag. Wait staff was very friendly and the food came out quick but we won't be coming back. read more

Great breakfast. I had eggs, hash and home fries. All was excellent. Clean with a friendly staff. We will go back.

Still my favorite go-to breakfast/brunch place. :) Whenever I ask for the café latte iced they seem puzzled but will do it for me anyway and it always tastes great! read more

We read several reviews here before deciding to try it out. Sad to say, it was a disappointing experience, especially after reading some of the high praise they received. Let's start with service. Slow is an understatement. The place was less than 1/2 full & our waitress seemed to never be around. She greeted us shortly after we sat & brought us coffee. Then she disappeared for about 20 minutes before coming back to take our order. Food came out in a timely manner. But, it took over 30 minutes to get a box for leftovers, our check, & pay the bill...she was nowhere to be found. Food was OK, but not great. We split an apple walnut muffin; it was so dry & tasted like flour. I got the Florentine Eggs Benedict; home fries very obviously came from a frozen bag mix (I know because we've had it at home), hollandaise sauce was runny & lacked flavor, & there was almost none of the pesto ricotta on it, which is a shame because it was the best part of the dish; eggs were properly pouched. Hubby got the Sweet Potato Hash Benedict; the mornay sauce was delicious, home made cornbread had no flavor & was very dry, & the hash was great, but you grew sick of it quickly because it was too sweet. Prices were on par to similar restaurants in the area. It's very possible it was just an off day. But, unfortunately, this place isn't worthy the drive for us to return. Hope y'all have better luck. read more

I was very excited to try the food from here but I wasn't aware of the consequences of their poor communication. I was called 4 to 5 times being harassed of getting the cops called on me if I don't pick up the food. When my intention was to try the food and pay for it. Make sure for future customers if you are to come eat from here. You only have a time limit of 10 minutes to pick up your food otherwise you will get the cops called on you and be called so many times. read more

I walked in and thought that it was just another diner with mediocre food. The outside is nice. The inside is clean with Christmas decorations. The service was good. The waitress did a good job checking on us and was attentive to our needs. I had the special Greek omelet: Spinach, feta, onions and olives. It was delicious and filling (As you can see in the pictures I posted). My friend had the regular breakfast: eggs, hash, toast and bacon and pancakes with fruit on the side as replacement for the hash. The hash was crisp and not burnt. I love that they have the local Yacht sodas made here in Rhode Island. Service was great. No other selection on coffee-just regular coffee. Probably the best diner style food around the Cumberland area. I recommend and would definitely go back. 4 stars and excellent. read more

Went out with some friends for brunch. The portions were small, the service mediocre and the price did not match the plate! Had to ask for butter, syrup, etc... the mimosas are 12.99 for a shot glass of orange juice and the Bloody Marys served from a mix with no garnishes at all! Very disappointing will not return read more

I love how unique the menu items are. My favorite so far has been the grill cheese on the California bread- the butternut squash soup and the Florentine Benedict. And last but certainly not least- the sweet potato hash is to die for!!!! read more

Was in the area and wanted a good breakfast in a laid-back setting. This place is perfect for that. I had the lemon and ricotta crepes which were topped with a rosewater and orange syrup. The crepes were so good I didn't get a chance to take photos--pretty much devoured it all in record time. My friend got the stuffed croissant french toast, which had a strawberry cream cheese filling, and wowza that was really good, too! My friend also really likes their homefries. The portion sizes are breakfast appropriate, but our service was not great. Not sure if they were short staffed or just overwhelmed. The staff, when they did come to our table, were polite and apologetic, so they could've been having an off day, it happens. Will probably be back if I'm in that area and craving a good breakfast. read more

Great place for breakfast or lunch. I love the crepes. Consistently good food. Friendly service.

I absolutely love Modern Bistro! My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place with the intent of switching up our breakfast spot and man, this place is it! The food is always amazing. It's become our new breakfast spot. We always come back for more and try new things. I absolutely love their Portuguese Bread French toast, their poached eggs, their home fries whether it's the regular or sweet potato hash. They also have great specials read more

A great spot for a quick breakfast! I have eaten here a few times and the quality is good and the service is nice. The food was not fall-out-of-your-chair amazing, but it was tasty and delicious. Really, what more do you need for breakfast? My wife really enjoys their homefries! read more

Went here this past Sunday to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. We had a party of 8, including 2 small children. To my surprise, they take reservations! Even though it was busy, they had our table ready for us. Sometimes going out to eat with 2 children can be difficult, but they did not cause any fuss, and the environment lent us to be comfortable having the kids there. Our waitress was attentive and professional. She may not have had given us much chit-chat, but it was very busy and I am guessing she was doing her best with all of her table and orders to keep track of. Regardless, our coffees were always full, and requests always fulfilled in a timely manner (asking for water, hot sauce, extra napkins). The food was pretty yummy. Everyone left pleased. My husband got eggs benedict, noting his hollandaise was flavorful without being too heavy or lemony, a super plus for him. Other table favorites were the potatoes. I subbed my potatoes for the fresh fruit bowl which was filled with quite a variety of fruit. Our overall experience was nice: we enjoyed our food, didn't feel rushed and felt like we were taken care of. We left the restaurant happy and not smelling of breakfast, a huge plus for me. The one minor down side is parking. When busy, the parking lot can seem a bit tight, and with customers turning over quickly, it seemed like both times I was in the parking lot there was a commotion. I am sure it is only like this at peak hours. read more

Modern Bistro - A classic breakfast of two eggs, toast and subbed in fruit instead of potatoes! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cumberland, Rhode Island

We went here for the first time for Sunday brunch. Upon entering, no one greeted us and there was no indication of how to add your name to the wait. Finally one woman came over and it was up to the 8-10 of us waiting to let her know who had been waiting the longest. We were referred to as the "3rd party of 2." It wasn't long for us to get seating. Our waitress was ok, and the food was pretty good. The homefries were nice and crunchy and our eggs were cooked to our liking. Overall decent place, just unorganized hosting and wait staff. They need a designated host/hostess or at least a sign in sheet for parties arriving. read more

Recently came here and was not a huge fan. We only came here after another popular breakfast place in the area was at capacity. The Portuguese sweet bread french toast was so bad. It was so runny and squishy. It looked like it had barely been cooked and was so wet and soggy. I've had this same dish at other places and it has tasted 10x better. I also had a bagel sandwich with egg, ham and cheese. It was good but not special by any means. I asked the waitress to take back the french toast and requested a side of home fries instead. Those once again were okay, but nothing special. They were crispy at least. I'm usually not picky when it comes to breakfast but this whole experience was just eh. I tried some of the waffle that one of my friends got and it literally had no flavor. The waitress said they make their own waffle mix. If that's true they need to change their recipe. The ones you make from the box honestly have more flavor. The waitress told us she would take the french toast off the bill, and we were very appreciative of that, until we got the bill. She crossed off the french toast but when we calculated the bill she still kept the amount in the total. So while it appeared she took it off, she really didn't. Honestly at that point we just wanted to get out of there so we paid and left. Definitely won't be coming back. read more

This place is my go to for any business breakfast or brunch needs. It's very close to CVS headquarters and not as busy as Patriots Diner. Food is a bit more upscale, as well. Crepes, anyone? Yum! Wait staff is friendly. The place is clean and tidy. It may not look like much from the exterior, but you should definitely give them a try when you're tired of the same old diner atmosphere! read more

I arrived at the Modern Bistro because I was ignored at the Patriot Diner. At the Modern I was greeted and seated by Amanda who cared for me during my entire stay. My meal was not so good and she offered anything else I may wish as an alternative -wow. However, I don't waste food so I ate what I had (sweet potato hash). I will return to try something else, but mainly because of how I was treated as a guest. The four stars are for Amanda. The place is recommendable. read more

Delish! Excellent service, hot fresh delicious food, and a cute and relaxing ambiance. Love the light music on while having lunch. I ordered the Burger 4077; excellent choice! Thick cut bacon, and yummy melted cheese. (Of course ranch on the side) Fries were crisp and fresh! Great food at a very reasonable price and there's even a bar! read more
