8/4/25: We were traveling back home on 95 and started to get hungry for lunch…read more Thanks to Yelp, this 5 Star "Turtle Cafe" just happened to be near by. This place is nothing fancy inside, but an ultimate hidden gem! We walked in and the small place was packed! The server said the food wait was a while. We didn't mind. It ended up being maybe 15 minutes. The three of us ordered: BLT Eggs Benedict, French Toast, English muffins and a fruit cup. All the food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious! There's only one short order cook. He does a one-man show cooking 4 to 5 meals (maybe more) at one time. It was incredible watching him. Overall, Customer Service was great. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. There's one very tiny restroom in the back of the restaurant. Regarding parking, we just grabbed a spot on the street. Looking forward to stopping back into the Turtle Cafe!

Who doesn't serve breakfast all day? I thought breakfast was by far the most profitable meal of…read morethe day and hence restaurants would never NOT serve breakfast. No matter, we were there before 11AM so we were served breakfast. The server we had was excellent she was a former employee of the Coffee Break which was the old restaurant in this location. The place is LOUD. The decor is new and refreshed. There is NO WHEEL CHAIR ACCESS (which surprised me as they just renovated the place. One would think the Town of Clinton would have required it.) I had the Breakfast Wrap with sausage and american cheese. It was good and filling. $7.00 (in May 2026) My companion had the Quinoa Omelette pictured 1/2 eaten ($14.75 in May 2026) which was good. The home fries had a little too much salt but were otherwise excellent. Personally when there is salt actually on the table, I always wonder why the cook just lightly dusts with salt as I can add more. We also ordered a fresh fruit cup which had grapes purple and green, strawberries, and a few hard pieces of honey dew melon. $6.50 (May 2026) In May 2026 the hours are 0700-1430 MON - SAT 0700-1200 SUN ****WARNING**** They stop servicing breakfast items at 11AM They do take credit cards BUT... They used to take it right at the table now, they don't which means you wait to pay. Bad move on the owner's part. There is plenty of free parking. I imagine there will be waits once the summer season gets going so plan to wait (maybe on the weekends)?

There are really only two things you need to know about Beach Donut Shop:…read more 1)The line will move and even if it's way out the door it will be worth the wait. 2)There is no donut flavor that's not worth trying. Other than this, I can tell you that nothing about the decor of this place is slick or designed for Instagram. Refreshingly, the main focus of this business is to make some of the world's best donuts and sell them at reasonable prices. The coffee is perfectly serviceable. They also offer breakfast and lunch menu items that are thoughtfully prepared and priced right as well. Personal favorites include: cherry cake donut, sour cream cake donut, maple frosted raised donut, powdered sugar jelly donut.

Horrible and when we finally were able to send it back it was late and stated we didn't want anything else. Reluctantly removed it from my check because I didn't want to wait for more food and then started heckling over whether I ate a few of the extra $$ home fries which were oily and gross. This server was aggressive and snotty...I always tip even the bad ones..apparently my spouse did not leave a tip which I was unaware of.

There was nothing special to write home about the food or this place. Based on the reviews we had…read moremuch higher expectation. My daughter and I split the pancakes and the egg breakfast. The home fries were so plain it was like eating boiled potatoes. The pancakes were just ok. English muffin burnt and no jelly offered. At least there was real maple syrup. I guess the scrambled eggs were the best thing. The bathroom needs updating and cleaning. Our particular waiter was great. He was new. The other waitstaff was pretty rough and unwelcoming and shouting orders across the place like "DON'T seat them until you check the list first!" My first reaction was to leave due to this but it had gotten such great reviews. Maybe if our expectations weren't so high it wouldn't have disappointed so much. I wouldn't return.

I went with the Croque Cajun which was absolutely delicious. The sauce on the toast had so much flavor and it went perfectly with the shrimp. We also had to try their desserts. We got 3 macarons and wow they were incredible. Really light and crispy on the outside and soft and chewy inside. Would come back just to get some more of those!

We had a few hours to kill before our flight, so our local friend wanted to show us the cute little town of Chester. She recommended this spot for brunch; It's small, cute and incredibly charming. The prices were cheap and the food was great. They have a few tables inside or a couple outside, and sits right in the heart of the town. The Villager is awesome... I'd gladly come back here in a heartbeat when I'm back in town!

I'm a celiac and vegan, it's incredible to be able to choose from everything on the menu. We happily drove 60 miles a day to eat there and we will be back anytime we're in Connecticut! A customer I ran into drives from out of state for their food. The food is always fresh, made to order and Delicious! If you require organic, vegan, gf they are the destination. We had spectacular service from Christine and the rest of the staff. We had almost everything on the menu, fluffy pancakes, wraps, bowls and pizza. We also took food/dessert to go for later.
