Are waiter is so kind so are the other waiters and waitresses. Their breakfast feels like I'm eating the best food ever. Their design is so perfect.

Great food! Great ambiance! No complaints at all. I got the blueberry pancakes and it was delicious.

One of the greatest breakfast ideas EVAH!!! Poutine with fried eggs, all generously smothered in delish brown gravy. This made me so happy I'm going to be smiling all day.

Tea steeped in a pot. Well done.

Dad's not an early riser so our breakfast was more of a brunch. Weren't sure how long they serve breakfast, but the menu has both breakfast and lunch items. We were told to seat ourselves when we walked in and chose a table in a sunny corner. Lovely. It took a little while for the waitress to come over with menus. The place was quite full, even on a week day, late morning. There seemed to be one waitress working the entire dining area and one working the counter but when I asked she assured me there were two waitresses working the dining room. The tables are close together and based on the weekday occupancy, I can understand why. Just be considerate of bumping into your neighbor. This is a family friendly restaurant with good breakfast options. I had a breakfast feast with pancakes, eggs, muffin and fruit which they allowed me to substitute for bacon. They don't have any 'pork alternative' breakfast meats (like turkey bacon or corned beef for example) so I was happy to have a fruit option. My eggs were well cooked, the pancakes tasty, my tea steeped in a pot (yea!). The restrooms are straight across from the entrance. Small, single person restrooms. I wasn't too sure the lock on the ladies room would hold so I made quick work of it. There is no baby changing station in this small space. Located in a shopping plaza there was a good amount of parking. Located right on the roadside it was easy to find.

Muffins and a delicious looking apple crisp.

We had a great bkfst here last week on our way to a winery. Sat right down at noon and decided to split the bkfst sandwich w bacon which comes with a side of potato (good deal at around $6). We got delicious hash browns (will order these every chance I get) and also split a single pancake. It was the perfect amount of food for two hungry gals. Nice service good prices. We each bought one of their giant blue/raspberry muffins to go. Enjoyed our stop there.

Best service around! This big guy approves :)

The English Muffin in Hampstead serves up traditional American fare breakfast with some specials thrown in such as lobster eggs Benedict, various types of quiche, fruited French Toast; and even cheesecake pancakes. Coffee is strong, service was mediocre, fair value in terms of food portion and price. Small place with about 20 tables and small sit at counter. Cash only.

The Eggs Benedict were disappointing. Canned hash and the hollandaise was bland. There are better options nearby.

The service was fine. The waitress was nice, but I had several crackling egg shells in my omelette…read morewhich really grosses me out. re: "Cynthia' s " on rt111 kindly prepare my omelette without egg shells. I crunched on at least five of them. It's very disconcerting. The latest trend in New Hampshire lately is charging you to use your credit card well, I use my credit card all the time and I'm not gonna pay you extra for any inconvenience. That's ridiculous. What an incentive !wont be back to your place. I don't carry cash so you won't see me there . you are the loser now somebody somewhere will take my credit card and not charge me extra as I already pay finance charge. I don't need an extra charge from you. Thanks though. Good luck. not bad overall .

Cynthia's opened recently in East Hampstead in the former Commodore Grill space at the Commodore…read morePlaza off NH 121A near NH 111. This casual family owned and operated restaurant cafe serves up breakfast all day and lunch. The place was redone with a brighter and an inviting atmosphere with booths along the walls and in front, table seating in the center and counter seating in the dining area. There are patriotic prints on the walls and checkered floors remain. I've picked up Lebanese and Italian food from the previous restaurant in this space and it's bittersweet seeing a small town breakfast and lunch spot open up in its place. There are a few other options in this area, but spread out. I decided to stop by here for breakfast before work. I got here just before 6:30 and sat myself in a booth which had menus to look at. The breakfast menu offerings include breakfast platters, 3 egg omelettes, pancakes, French toast, Belgian waffles, breakfast burritos, Tony The Tiger (frosted flakes French toast), hash (canned and homemade (soon)) and breakfast sides. The lunch menu offerings include fried appetizers, hand cut fries, sandwiches, wraps, burgers, soup, chili, salads, comfort dishes, and daily specials. The prices seem fair, most meals $8 to $15 range (in 2024). After I was seated, the server came over and offered a drink and I requested an ice water since I already had coffee beforehand. They did not have homemade hash yet, so I eventually decided to go with the Steak Bomb Omelette ($13.50 plus tax) with choice of toast (I chose sourdough) and one side (I got home fries). My food was served in about 8 minutes after ordering. There was a good amount of hot food on my plate. The omelette was filled with grilled shaved steak, green peppers, onions, mushrooms & cheese (I chose cheddar) with a folded thin egg sheet. This omelette was pretty good. The home fries were fresh cut potatoes (cube cut) lightly grilled and seasoned, which were potatoey and with the skins. The sour dough toast was firm and had minimal butter. The server dropped off the check as I was almost done eating, no rush. The check was $14.65 with tax and before tip. Overall, this is a good place stop for food and I plan to stop by for lunch next time since I saw they had chicken tenders, reubens, monte cristos, mac & cheese, and spaghetti & meatballs (Wednesdays). The friendly staff knew people by name as they stopped in for breakfast. The service for weekday breakfast was prompt and I was able to make to work on time. It is noted they are closed on Sundays (at the time of this posting).

Located in East Hampstead across from Pasta Loft in the former Grover Insurance space, Audet's…read moreCountry Store & Sweets is a locally owned cozy candy store, sandwich shop, seafood eatery, boba tea, ice cream & dessert shop, all in one place. There are a few tables with chairs inside to enjoy your treats. They offer a selection of NH made & regional products, "penny" candy, homemade chocolates, fudge, freeze dried candy, coastal Maine popcorn, teas, honey, 30+ flavors of homemade ice cream/frozen yogurt/sorbet including vegan flavors (cones, bowls, waffle cones, sundaes, floats, freezes, frappes), smoothies, bubble tea drinks, refreshers, mocktails, coffee drinks, cooler drinks, breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, lobster rolls (seasonal), homemade salads, clam chowder, pasta dishes, and seafood. They also offer specials here (check their Facebook). There were no fried foods at the time of this posting (on pause), though they previously offered fried seafood & fries. I placed an online DD order to Audet's very recently since I had a promo and credits to use. My order was all set to go in about 45 minutes after placing my order back at my home. I took my time to head over to East Hampstead for pickup. My order was just about ready as I arrived. I ordered the Clams (with shell) Scampi ($21.95), The "NH" Wich ($10.95) with chips and a Small Homemade Cucumber Salad ($3.50) and headed back home to enjoy my food. The scampi had 10 littleneck clams in the shells of soft butter garlic fettuccine noodles with a soft dinner roll and seasoned broccoli & carrots on the side. The NH Wich had homemade chicken salad with small tender chicken pieces, cranberries, red onion, celery, dill, light mayo mix & leaf lettuce on soft egg bread. I actually toasted the bread slices and put the sandwich back together before eating. The side of salted chips were crunchy. The homemade cucumber salad had fresh cucumber slices, shredded carrot & dill in a light vinegar dressing. Overall, all of the food I ordered on this visit was very tasty and fresh. I will definitely have to stop back in again for some ice cream and other food offerings.

My family and I visited the Early Bird Cafe. The ambiance is cozy and a little scattered for decor,…read morebut cute. Breakfast is served all day so we ordered that. 1 had the garden saute, which is a plate full of grilled vegetables on top of fluffy scrambled eggs. It came with toast, so I got some very flavorful rye and some crispy home fries. My spouse and I split a delicious blueberry pancake, which was light and fluffy packed with wild blueberries. He ordered the Spanish omelette and chili which was great together. My daughter ordered a banana Belgian waffle, which was huge. It was topped with a generous amount of whipped cream and smelled wonderful. The service was a lot slow, but they were busy with lots of regular customers, which I see as a sign of a good place to eat. The staff were very friendly. The three of us are for around $60, which included drinks and a tip. For the amount of food we received, I felt this was a good deal. I look forward to trying more food from their large menu.

The food was so disappointing. Hubby said his apple juice tasted watered down…read more I got the Fenway (sausage pepper onion and cheese) omelette. The pepper and onion were on the outside, and were huge pieces. I guess I didn't understand the theme because I thought it would be cooked better, smaller and inside my omelette. Service was slow. It was okay? Just hard to watch ... so many trips to the table. And the table seemed dirty to me. $52 for my omelet, coffee, apple juice, and hubby's 2 eggs with French toast and meat. We are going to stick with ihop
