The coffee was good but pricey. Be sure to take advantage of the free refill haha. The Cod Cake Benedict was bland. The cod cake felt unseasoned and lacking. The biscuit did not feel buttery at all. The Biscuits Breakfast was better. The gravy was heavy with some specks of flavor. Biscuit was flaky but mid. The linguica saved this dish. The homes fries was the only thing that packed some flavors. Everything else was okay... Friendly and helpful staff! Small and cozy, with carpet that may or may not be sticky on certain spots.

So cute inside and loved the counter and kitchen visibility. The menu is varied and interesting. My husband had the "Cobb Salad" which was delicious, but I'm not sure why they call it a Cobb. Definitely different ingredients than a traditional one. We asked for extra dressing on the side, which it definitely needed. I had the fried chicken & waffles with hot honey (a special) and it was amazing!! It came with 3 large and 1 small piece of boneless chicken, and my only complaint is that 2 of the pieces were hot, and 2 were lukewarm. And they were out of iced tea. But definitely recommend.

I'm not really a fan of the way they renovated this place two years ago in terms of adding the bar, but it has settled in well and the flow of ordering is more effective than before. Ordering ahead (online) is recommended at peak times and although there have sometimes been problems, it's generally worked well for me. Though I tend to have a few quick things and/or the same thing when I come here, it's worth remembering taste and quality, especially for entrees, is somewhat above what you might expect for a "touristy" place. The hardworking staff deserves our support, too.

There are a boatload of ice cream shoppes in and around this part of Oak Bluffs, but only one had…read morethe name that drew me in: Mad Martha. I had hoped to discern whether she was mad (supervillain), mad (fly), mad (bipolar/borderline), mad (angry), mad (6-7), or otherwise. There was no such information when you walked into the shoppe and the teenager scooping ice cream did not seem to be much of an expert about what sort of mad Martha was. Mystery unsolved. However, since it is Martha's Vineyard and with the 50th anniversary of the Jaws film, I was positively delighted to find that they had a shark attack flavour. I will order anything shark attack themed or adjacent, no questions asked, because the food item is usually blue. Blue food is the best sort of food. Plus the strawberry, raspberry, or cherry used as the attack part of the shark is a bonus fruit experience for the day so who can complain about that. Mad Martha's is a calm, cool place in Oak Bluffs to sit with some ice cream and enjoy before/after the gingerbread houses nearby. There is ample seating in the store along the windows as well as right outside the shoppe on benches. The scoops are generous and pricing is fair for the Vineyard. With that being said, only visit if you can handle the unsolved mystery of exactly what type of mad this Martha character was. I like to think her tortured ghost only watches television during NHL season and now is solely focused on lamenting the Bruins trading away Marchy to the Panthers. But that doesn't affect her ability to serve up scoops of shark attack when the game isn't on.
