    Chicken & Avocado Club
    John M.

    Stopped right off the highway for dinner. Convenient for those driving down 95 or also a favorite of locals. Inside was classic diner vibes with a milkshake bar seats or booths. Service was friendly and efficient, from getting seated to food being served. As you'd expect from a diner, an expansive menu of various grill eats and American entrees . The sandwich was decent but the sky burger was really good, from large meat patty to well made with the toppings.

    Mmmmm..... Free Dessert....

    Very tasty food and friendly atmosphere. Free dessert if you leave a review. So--BONUS!

    Ordered takeout and everything was so fresh and perfect. I appreciated that they took our substitute and side notes into consideration and tailored our order exactly how we wanted it to be... As in I asked for the onions and tomatoes on the side of my sandwich and they were included in a small wax paper bag! How considerate. :) Great and convenient location.

    Bacon egg and cheese
    Philip Z.

    Small, busy diner with plenty of parking and a friendly staff. Service was quick, and my coffee cup was refilled without my even asking. Eggs up were quite good, but the bacon egg and cheese were not to my wife's liking; bacon was not thoroughly cooked, and the roll was very sweet. Lots of regulars were here (first name basis with the servers). Service was professional but not particularly friendly.

    Doctor's Omelette, High Protein Omelette and French Toast
    Jody M.

    Breakfast was delicious. The menu had lots of options for breakfast. I got the doctor's omelette (egg whites with tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach, broccoli). It was so good and light. Coffee and French toast were really good too. Loved the pictures of several Branford buildings and landmarks on the walls. Will definitely be back.

    Gyro Wrap, I guess.
    Daryn B.

    Road-tripping up I-95 and it's well past lunch time. I saw a billboard for a crab place and thought clam chowder does sound good. This is New England so.... Well the crab place seemed a little too upscale for me so I decided to try this diner I passed. Middle of the afternoon on a Friday and I'm the only one in the place. It was clean, all booths and an extensive menu. The board out front mentioned the clam chowder so that was an obvious starter. I didn't want anything big but not a burger. For some reason a gyro sounded good. The chowder arrived. Manhattan style! You got to warn someone when traveling through New England the the chowder isn't New England. Now I'm bummed. I will admit the chowder was still good but mostly consisted of large chunks of potato and a lot less clam. Then the gyro arrived. It is served open faced; flat pita with gyro meat on top then a heaping pile of steamed onions and peppers. There were two cubes of feta cheese and sauce in a plastic container. Again, it tasted good but not what I was expecting. Maybe had I stuck to the standard sandwiches and fries I might rate this place a little higher. The service was fine, the prices reasonable and the facility seemed clean. Just walked away without having either of my food cravings satisfied.

    Lunch/dinner chicken parmigiana and meatball grinder
    Virginia K.

    So this place has terrific service and is very clean. We ate here twice in a two day span. We had lunch here on a whim and the menu is extensive. The breakfast options looked amazing so we came back the next day for breakfast. I'll start with lunch/ dinner. I had the chicken parmigiana with penne pasta. It was outstanding. The chicken was seasoned and juicy inside a crunch outside. It was excellent. The pasta sauce was good too. My husband ordered the spinach pie as an app. I had a few bites. It was good, but maybe lacked some cheese. Just a little bit dry. His lunch was a meatball grinder which was also excellent. The same sauce I had on my dish is used. The cheese is really high grade mozzarella. The stretch point was really good and flavor too. The meatball had good flavor and was so light and fluffy, and It came with fries. We ordered desserts to go. We each got a cannoli which were delicious and I got a slice of carrot cake. The carrot cake I ate the next day and was happy to report it was moist and delicious. My husband got a little individual Boston cream pie. Our meal was very good so we decided to try breakfast the next day. We got there about 10am the next morning, it was a Saturday. So it was busy but we didn't have to wait too long to be seated. We got coffee, which was average. We ordered potato pancakes to split, I got the avocado Benedict, and my husband got the Irish Benedict. This is where the problem came in. The potato pancakes were hard as Little Rock's, the flavors were so subtle it was not very enjoyable. The Benedict's were a huge disappointment. The hollandaise sauce was horrible. It was thick like a gravy and had a bitter yuck flavor. I ended up scraping it all off and eating my avocados and English muffins. It was almost like they put flour in the hollandaise. I couldn't stomach it, so ended up avoiding that whole part of my meal. The home fries were good though. My husband had the same reaction to the hollandaise. It just was horribly wrong. He ate what he could avoiding it as well. It really put a sad face on the diner. We had the same waitress for breakfast she was terrific. I'd say avoid the Benedict's.

    When I walked in I felt like I stepped back into time. It was like walking into an old train car…read more They had the guy cooking right behind the long counter. Immediately I went on the Yelp app to see the reviews and mostly all of them were positive except quite a few people complained about how long they waited for their food. Well, they were legitimate complaints. Me and my wife waited roughly 45 - 50 minutes for 2 egg platters. The part that upset me was the people that walked in after us and sat at the counter were served before us. Basically the cook (owner) served his normal customers first. If it wasn't for the long wait time I would've easily scored Bob's 5 stars but 45 - 50 minutes for eggs will deter me from going back.

The view as you can see from the photo is lovely, and you can see the commuter rail when it occasionally comes through. There is also a police station next door so you get a Birds Eye view when officers are getting off shift. Pancakes here are so good. I'd say 98% of breakfast places have pancakes that disappoint but not these. Since I wasn't sure, I let the kids order them instead since they will eat anything as long as there is maple syrup on it. We ordered them a short stack of blueberry pancakes to share and added on real maple syrup. They were golden and not too thick or heavy. They had to pay the "mom tax" of sharing some with me. My husband ordered eggs, home fries and bacon and the bacon was also perfectly done- something else that we don't often find. This place is charming, there was what sounded like some 80s post-punk playing softly, our server was charming (French accented too perhaps?) and we hope to be back some day!

The parking lot is 'smallish' on the right side of the building and flows right to left in one direction, so be sure to look for the 'enter' sign. There are three steps up into the diner so be aware of that if you have difficulty using steps. Also, the restroom is tiny: like so small the sink is about a foot long by half as much wide, small. We stop in here on our trips out to Groton. Last visit we stopped for a late breakfast/early lunch. I ordered a coffee and it came in a nice big mug and is a mellow blend with a smooth finish. There are photo descriptions on the table of what your eggs will look like based on how you order it, so no surprises. What a great idea. The table holds napkins, hot sauces, salt & pepper, jellies, creamer and sugars. The staff are pleasant. Some are more chatty than others. There are definitely some regulars here each time we visit. The menu has lots of breakfast options but there are no substitutions so you may need to order al a carte or get a different 'meal' option and add-on an item. Just a heads up. They have plenty of toast options including English muffins. The lunch menu is a variety of sandwiches and burgers. Fries are tasty. Lettuce and tomato on your sandwiches are fresh. I can't think of a single disappointment we've had here. If you are in the area and enjoy a nice diner experience, stop in to Norm's.

The service is friendly and reliable--staff keep things moving smoothly without ever making you feel rushed, and there's a welcoming, hometown vibe that makes it easy to relax. The menu covers all the diner classics you'd expect, from hearty breakfasts to satisfying sandwiches and comfort-food dinners. Everything is prepared well, portions are generous, and prices are fair. While nothing on the menu is particularly extraordinary or reinventing the wheel, that's part of the charm: you know exactly what you're going to get, and it's always done right. Norm's isn't flashy, but it doesn't need to be. It's a dependable spot for a casual meal, whether you're starting your day with eggs and coffee or grabbing lunch with friends. If you're in Groton and want a diner that delivers steady quality without surprises, Norm's is a great choice. Cheers

    "I'll go back to the diner I'll write another letter…read moreI hope you'll read it this time" (Billie Eilish) I kind of laughed when our server brought over our menus. They were in a heavy book (reminded me of a high school yearbook) with six pages of choices plus an insert of daily specials. Post Road is the kind of diner that diner lovers dream of. Their menu is an embarrassment of riches and would seamlessly fit in alongside anything you would find on the Sunrise Highway on Long Island or on Route 17 in New Jersey. Three of us walked in around 11:30am today, and our first order of business was deciding if we'd go for lunch or breakfast food. We all went for breakfast plates- pancakes ($9.99) with a side of scrambled eggs ($2.99), GF Pancakes ($12.98), and for me a "Protein Breakfast" ($13.99) and a coffee ($3.49). So, I'm sure you're asking, "what on earth is a protein breakfast?' Well, it was four egg whites, a few gorgeous tomato slices, and a nice piece of grilled chicken. It was pretty filling and everything tasted great. Our server was efficient and professional and swiftly brought over a "to go" box for the excess of those enormous pancakes. The dining room is awesome, a real throwback to the 1950's with plenty of old-time booths, art deco neon signs, checkerboard ceramic tile, and music\entertainment\pop culture images everywhere. We really enjoyed our visit !
