    French toast with raspberries, white chocolate drizzle and real whipped cream!

    Want a great French Toast with fresh raspberries, white chocolate drizzle and real whipped cream on top, you gotta go to Raves. It is the special for this Mother's Day Weekend!! Service is always consistently the best!

    Nice place for breakfast with a bar and tables. Just a few customers when we walked in on a weekday at 9am. Good variety on the menu. Our waitress was from NJ originally and had a great sense of humor. My wife and I started with coffees. My girls ordered the strawberry blueberry French toast which was served with fresh berries and whip cream. My son got the Egg BLT sandwich and my wife and I each got an omelette. Highly recommend Raves.

    Menu.

    Nice little breakfast spot which I believe was a bar in a previous life. I'm big on a good breakfast and I tend to lean more favorably towards savory rather than sweet when it comes to breakfast. Raves delivers in that regard. Their omelettes are good but I they aren't the fluffy type which I prefer but tasty regardless. My mushroom and Swiss omelette was packed with mushrooms and the grits were point on. All this with friendly service. Definitely recommend.

    2x2x2 on the menu - scrambled eggs, toast, bacon, grits, with a side of fruit.

    My in-laws recommended Rave's, so we decided to try it while we were in town. It's a small space, that had a very locals vibe to it. The food itself was good, but the service was poor. Once they dropped off our food, nobody checked on us to provide refills of coffee, water, etc., or to see if we wanted anything else. With so many breakfast spots in town, we will likely try a few others before returning.

    Nice little diner with good local restaurant vibe. Friendly staff, clean restaurant, good food and reasonable prices. Slightly "smaller" menu than most breakfast/lunch/brunch prices but we had almost everything on the menu and all of our plates were clean.

    Family owned. Never disappoints. Extremely friendly and quick servers. Food arrival is really quick once ordered.

    Great cozy spot for a good breakfast! Loved the banana Carmel pancakes! Service was spot on and very welcoming! Nice hidden gem!

    Incredible food and kind and caring staff. Best biscuits with sausage gravy if all time and the eggs Benedict is world class!

    We make it a point to come every year burgers are great little sad they didn't have the fried…read morepickles but still delicious.

    MY RATING SYSTEM 5/4 = Exceeds expectations = 4 (1)…read more3 = Meets expectations = 3 (3) 2/1 = Does not meet expectations = 0 OVERALL POINTS RATING 0 - 5 1. AMBIANCE = 3 Going up the main stairs to be seated. They set it up that people can do graffiti on the walls. Feels like one is walking in a subway that has been abandoned or factory. Offer shelled peanuts which can be thrown on the floor. Working to create a dive environment. There is inside and outside seating. We choose to sit in the none sunny area outside. There is a set of stairs that come up off the beach as well. 2. FOOD/DRIINKS = 3 Had new England style clam chowder. Ok. High salt content. Burgers were good though messy. Had a local IPA was good. Food came hot and in time. 3. SERVICE = 4 I give a 4 because from the person who seated us was upbeat and accommodated our request for seating. The waitress was aware but not overbearing. 4. BATHROOM = NA did not use. There is one located in parking lot area. 5. PRICING = 3 What you would expect. Burger. Tea. Beer. Soup came out $40 tax is 10%. 6. OBSERVATION My overall impression was good though this is the low time of the season and it was mid afternoon. I would probably try some of the other places that are in the general area of the pier. The view from outside seating ok. But nothing about it gives the wow effect. I would probably try this place again. 7. POINTS 13 out 25 points. 20 to 25 = Exceeds expectations. NO 10 to 19 = Meets expectations. YES. 0 to 9 = Does not meet expections. NO
