    problematic employee behind the counter and the guy she had approach me.
    Pearl C.

    My experience is based off of the service and interaction of the women behind the counter at Newcomb's cafe. I came here to pick up an uber eats order for myself with My own money. I walk into the restaurant area, I'm not greeted, smiled at, nothing. My food wasn't in the pick up area so I take a seat in the seating area, still not greeted asked if i could be helped or anything. 5 minutes later, in comes in a small group of 3 elder women; the cashier is delighted to see them from across the bakery at the main door waving, smiling and greeting them. Still Never greets me, but walks over to me asking that i get up from the seat that i'm sitting in because the ladies who sat themselves down at a separate table need my table. I politely said no. I was told because they are paying customers they deserve to sit where i was. I said no again, i was not greeted checked in with NOTHING....But you want me to sit at a table next to a stranger that was waiting for his order, or did you assume i was with him because we were both black? The lady at the front counter then went and told some older gentleman in a black fleece that i won't move and the regular paying customers should have the table they usually sit at, he came to approach me and asked me to move again. Once again, no. i told him i would just like my order so i can be on my way. I'm quietly sitting and waiting to be greeted, NOT BOTHERING ANYONE! The man left me alone, here comes the woman again, saying she doesn't understand why i can't move, so i asked her why didn't she greet me like she greeted the group of elderly women . she said she didn't know what i wanted, had you greeted me you would have known. & i would of had no issue moving for the ladies to be seated. New money can always become regular money, but i will not be returning to this location again. Very problematic over a vacant seat, when you couldn't greet me upon arrival nor check in with me to see what i need. My first and last time going into Newcomb of Braintree, MA HOW EMBARRASSING!

    Food was excellent. Service was great. We plan to go back again. We got the skillet breakfast. The one closest in the photo is the vegetarian one.

    My husband And I found Newcomb's on Yelp. It was an amazing breakfast. The diner is small, quaint neighborhood restaurant. Our server was Erin and she was so friendly and kept the coffee hot and the cups full.. The menu is very impressive. Such an array of options of omelets, pancakes, French Toast. i has Crunchy French Toast with bacon for $7.95. I loved the crunch of the French Toast. My husband had lobster Benedict and he's still talking about it hours later. It was 3 eggs over an English muffin and loaded with fresh lobster for $15.99. He felt the price was excellent for the quantity and quality of his meal. ( they also had lobster omelets which looked so good too!) I highly recommend Newcomb's and look forward to a return this week.

    Ehhhh. This place is maybe (huge maybe) average at best and even saying that is very generous. This is one of those places you come across every once in a while that has odd-shaped food. Everything is either a square or circle - which is just personally a big turn off for me as it feels very unnatural and not like actual food. I ordered the New England Skillet which is home fries topped with bacon, ham, sausage, mushrooms, peppers, onions, tomatoes, cheese, eggs and toast. I always appreciate a good skillet as it is a little bit of everything but I could not get over the circular sausage and cubed everything else. Makes it look like everything came out of a can. Not to mention the orange potato cubes/home fries - a big no-no in my book. Overall the food isn't THAT bad but I just can't recommend it as it's not something I would normally eat.

    My bagel was hot and tasty. The service was fast. The restaurant was closing soon so relatively quiet. The place was clean. Everyone was friendly.

    New England Omelette
    Art B.

    Returned today for another good experience. Had the New England Omelette which has just about everything in it and was delicious. Took half home with me because it was so filling. While there, I was surprised by how much business they do through GrubHub and Uber Eats. Waitstaff was again personable and patient. So go already.

Food on the bedsheets, looks like someone pooped on the other. Ran out of hand soap, when asking the house keeper was told to use the shower gel. Was told the members lounge breakfast is 6-930. Food was gone at 9, apparently they have a sign inside the lounge that says 6-9. Would have been nice of the front desk to know that. For those of use lactose intolerant would be nice if you had some milk alternatives for the coffee. Only had half and half, but when asked if we could have atleast 2% lounge staff rolled eyes and got annoyed. Just wow! I travel a lot and always stay at Marriotts this is so below standards.

If someone shuts a door anywhere on the floor, it reverberates through your room like a shockwave. The noise is relentless to the point where it genuinely sounds like bombs falling in the distance somewhere nearby all day long. The building is so cheaply constructed that the entire room physically reacts to it. The bed shakes. The nightstand shakes. Items on the table rattle. I would be lying in bed and feel the bed shake when someone shut a door down the hall. I stayed in room 664, and I did not get a single night of uninterrupted sleep. I was woken up multiple times, sometimes by housekeeping noise and several other times by doors in the hallway slamming. Despite sleeping with two different white noise machines running, it was enough to shake the room and jolt me awake. It was impossible to relax in the room during the day or take a nap. My body was constantly tense, bracing for the next crash, slam, or bang. There was no sense of calm or quiet at any point. The main culprit is housekeeping, and it is completely out of control. They clean rooms with the hallway doors propped wide open, turning the corridor into an echo chamber. As they clean, they are aggressively slamming everything from closet doors, shower doors, glass cups, toilet seats crashing shut, hangers clanking loudly. I could clearly hear hangers clanging together, toilet seats banging, and doors slamming from eight rooms down the hall, all from inside my room with the door closed. Even the common areas are a nightmare. The lobby regularly had two different music tracks playing at the same time over the speakers, dueling music competing with itself, creating an absolute cacophony. The only bright spot was the breakfast staff, who were super friendly and professional. If you value sleep, peace, or sanity, do not stay here. I have never experienced anything like this and would never stay here again.

    Things that Granite Street Cafe had going for it which won them our visit:…read more 1) They were open early. 7am - 2pm, every day. We wanted to be somewhere by 8am, so that worked for us. 2) They have a parking lot, just past the intersection, after the building on Water Street. Okay, this was more of a bonus for us, at least initially, but when I got there and saw the streets around them, I even more appreciated it. There's also an entry from the parking lot, but it isn't particularly clearly marked. I read about it on someone else's review, and got there first, so I had time to meander. But is the metal staircase closest to the sidewalk. There was a single waitress, which meant service wasn't the quickest. But she was nice and knew her regular by name. The booths had clear plastic (or glass... I didn't touch them to verify) dividers - perhaps due to the pandemic and social distancing, perhaps not, but I liked them and they seemed a part of the original booths, rather then an after thought. We split a sweet and a savory - double strawberry pancakes (3 pancakes with both berries cooked in, and strawberry compote, whipped cream on the side) $12.50, and Granite Street Benedict (with corned beef hash) $14.50. The sweet was surprisingly not too sweet, while the savory was a bit too salty. We weren't hurried along or anything. And they take both cash or credit.

I swear theres always something new and appetizing every time we come in. I also really appreciate the sweet server who gifted our party of 6 roses during my friend's bachelorette.

I'm not sure how well they would navigate but allergies as there is Nutella and pistachio on menu. I'd be reluctant.

Welcome but hurry up and leave, lol. It's in poor taste in my opinion. I've never seen this before in a restaurant and probably wouldn't be likely to return given this makes patrons feel rushed and I drove an hour, out of state to visit. It kinda says our time is more valuable than yours when you limit patrons to an hour but give them 20 minutes to eat and eff off. My mom had the garden bene and she really enjoyed it. I had the banana Nutella foster French toast. Portions are really huge. You can easily split them. Lattes are really good too. Our server was very kind and attentive. A little pricy for brunch. Our bill came to 52.50 and I wasn't able to use a visa gift card which was strange. Luckily I had my credit card. Overall it was pretty good. Would I return to feel rushed for expensive brunch, probably not.
