Haddock was amazing!
Deb L.

Everything was amazing. Fish and chips were great. Services was great too. Hubby loved his blueberry pancakes.

Suddenly we had free time so we decided on breakfast. Tasty, quick basic breakfast. Pancakes were a tad on the thick side but were tasty. Good bacon! Hash browns were nice and crunchy and not burned like I get at a lot of places. Special was Irish Benedict which I was told was very good. There was a hair in my eggs that I noticed before my first bite. Waitress took plate away immediately and brought me a new one. She was great about it.

We were chatting with the front office lady at our motel about local breakfast joints and all of a sudden she got real animated and said something about us having to go to Rosie's. That was enough for us! As we parked our car at Rosie's and walked to the front door we saw that it was crowded. We also saw, courtesy of a sign board that Rosie's has a unique seating policy - no reservations and no need to give a name to the hostess. Instead, you just line up and periodically a hostess will come out and gather info on how many people are in your party to manage who gets seated next. As we worked our way up the outdoors line and then into the building we had a good opportunity to watch Rosie's crew in action. I was struck by two things- how many regular customers were greeted by name and the warm embraces so many received. We saw one young toddler who must have been hugged by 3 different servers. I was also struck by how hard they worked and how cheerful they all were. One young lady really stood out-she literally sprinted to and from every table she interacted with. Our server Jordan was a delight, chatting with us about Rosie's famous cinnamon rolls, and just being overall charming. She brought us coffee right away and took our order for two over easy eggs, a side of scrambled eggs, a cinnamon roll, and a side of their homemade corned beef hash. Man oh man was the food great, and I have to tell you about their hash. Rosie's sells two kinds of hash - "Store" for $4.59 and Home made for $5.99. You'd be a fool to save a buck and a half and go for the store bought hash, because their Home Made hash is a grand slam home run out of the stadium.  No teeny tiny shreds of corned beef here, it was jam packed with big hunks of excellent meat. And as expected, the cinnamon roll was great and they sell four packs to go if you have a hankering for that. So in terms of excellent friendly service, a big menu, excellent food, and good value ($21.54 for our two meals) Rosie's is an easy Five Star No Brainer.

Food was good and service was excellent. The mushroom burger was a bit in the salty side and the turkey bacon Swiss in sourdough was very tender and tasty. It was a tad pink don't know if that's normal for inhouse oven roasted turkey‍.

Hash real corned beef.

Came in crowded every waitress was smiling. Very upbeat lunch and breakfast only though. Ordered the "Let's hash it out" choice of house made hash or canned. Who would order that is beyond me. But when it came out amazing. It was a dream in my mouth. It was as good as any deli in New York. This is a must eat place.

Stopped here on the way home from a wedding weekend and needed a good coffee and a full belly ! There was a long line but it was well worth the wait ! Great food friendly service ! A little more expensive then a typical diner but the food is not a grease pit . The hash browns are cooked different then I've ever seen them in 47 years ! Everything was great but the only thing that could use improvement is the coffee. The corned beef hash was cooked perfectly and tasted great ! That's how it should be served universally ! Found out about this place on yelp due to the good reviews ! Voted best diner / breakfast in NH ?! I would definitely recommend this place if you are in the area ! Also Cash Only ! I love that !

Just in town for the day and stumbled across Roses by whim. So pleasantly surprised -- they have the best breakfast! We got the hash tag hash dish and the stuffed french toast. Waited in line for about ten minutes but we came in right at lunchtime. Would recommend! Super friendly staff too.

My family and I have been visiting NH mainly North Conway and Lincoln area for over 15 years and have driven past this place every time on the way home. Currently we are staying at a campground with our RV near by and stopped in Rosie's Restaurant for some breakfast. Service was fast and the staff is BEYOND friendly and attentive!!! Both my husband and I agreed this is one of THE BEST breakfast/lunch places we've eaten at! The eggs are cooked to perfection, the meats are delicious, home fries are delicious and oh you HAVE to order their homemade toast, super yummy!!!! We loved this place so much we went the next morning for breakfast and plan on visiting for lunch to try one of their delicious looking burgers! If you're in the Ossippee, NH area this place is a MUST!!!! Friday morning wasn't too busy but Saturday morning there was a little bit of a wait to be seated. No more than 10-15 minutes but even if it were a 30min wait we would've waited because it's SO worth it!!!!

Happy Customers !!

This is one of those reviews where it's an easy 5 star and you know you won't be able to use enough…read morewords to describe the food. French Toast - 10/10 Best french toast we ever had. The bread is out of this world and is perfect for making french toast. The bread is challah bread from a local bakery. Every component of this french toast is perfect. The outside of the bread has a nice crust while the inside is warm and custardy but not too soggy. The butter and syrup are really good as well and they do not skimp. Bacon - 10/10 It is possibly the best bacon I have ever had. It might have been it was cooked to perfection that day or we were just at the right place at the right time. To me this is saying a lot because we all eat and have had a ton of bacon in our lives. I mean of course the bacon was good but it's not that simple. It was crispy while parts of it were still tender with a great chew. It also had a great smoke flavor. Most bacons say, "smoked." This bacon actually had a smokey flavor with wasn't artificial and paired so well with the coffee and sweet breakfast items. Pancakes - 9.4 The cook and tenderness of the pancake was fantastic. Again, the butter they serve is great and pairs well with the pancakes. The only hang up we had is the pancakes have a lemon flavor we weren't expecting. It didn't ruin the pancake however, we wished the lemon flavor wasn't there. Coffee - 10/10 The coffee is ground second prior to being brewed. It's not just your typical diner or breakfast spot coffee. Outside of a drink containing espresso, this was maybe the best cup of coffee we had at a restaurant. There was something different about this coffee as well. Maybe the atmosphere, the service, the weather and the food actually being amazing contributed to how great everything was. This place will definitely be added to the top 15-20 places I have visited so far.

I still don't know how they kept the large piece of fried chicken as juicy as they did... I'll be baffled by that for a long time.

Marcy's was part of the latter - I had seen the name float around a while, and since the reviews looked great I thought it would be a good place to have breakfast. That being said, I made plans to check it out. Marcy's is a small corner diner, located just off Congress Street near the Portland Museum of Art. It wasn't crowded when I arrived, and immediately got a seat at the counter. The interior is super casual - more casual than an average diner, but is also very welcoming. I can see this place getting crowded/a wait during peak times as there are only a few tables in addition to the counter. The diner is only open for breakfast and lunch, 5 days per week. The menu has several breakfast staples as well as some more creative dishes they concocted. I didn't want to go off the beaten path, so I focused on their breakfast combos which had a mixture of eggs and carbs. I decided on their Number 6 which contained choice eggs (I got scrambled), has browns, choice of breakfast meat (I got sausage), and choice of flavored pancakes (I got blueberry). The breakfast was delicious - the portions are large and I could tell they use quality ingredients. There isn't much more I can say outside of the fact that this was a solid meal with delicious food - it was really everything you want out of a diner breakfast. Service was also great - everyone was friendly and chill; I could tell they get along well and that they put a lot of love into this place. Overall, Marcy's Diner is a yes - there is nothing flashy here, but I had a delicious meal in a friendly, casual environment. I wouldn't hesitate to return the next time I'm in Portland.

Just a few blocks from the Courtyard... easy to find on the corner of Oak and Free streets…read more It's not a huge place... I think about 10 seats at the counter and 6 booths. It's entirely possible you might have to wait a bit for a seat if it's busy. We got there about 9am on a Friday and were able to snag a booth. We left less than an hour later and there were a few people waiting outside to get in. Service was quick and friendly. Food was tasty and filling. I was taste-testing blueberry pancakes on this trip. I liked theirs the best. I think it was because the pancake was lighter and fluffier and not as dense as some of the others I tried.
