    Breakfast burritos
    Jeannine H.

    First time here for brunch which is served Sundays 10-2. Great spot plenty of parking. There was a man playing Beatles music when we got there great to listen too. Got Right in sat on the heated patio, very comfortable. Staff is great very attentive and pleasant. Ordered our drinks I got a Bloody Mary since I'm on a mission to find the best! They were very tasty and flavorful. If you're a Bloody Mary person there's apparently a Hail Mary which comes with "food" items on top. I'll have to come back to try that.l, didn't know until it was too late. Ordered quickly and the waitress was quick to bring our drinks. Food took a bit but it was busy so not abnormal. Once out it was hot and cooked as we all wanted. Eggs were poached perfectly with a warm liquid center as they should be. The avocado toast was something I'd order again. Two large portions I could only eat one. The breakfast burrito was very good stuffed and not overly heavy. Hubs seems happy with it. The Nutella was the table favorite always delicious! Great place, great atmosphere which you can tell by the packed bar and all the smiling faces. We can't wait to go back!

    Great place for casual drinks and food. Come as you are and enjoy indoor or outdoor seating. Country bar ambiance.

    Great casual place for brunch or to have a few drinks. Both indoor and outdoor seating. Music most nights. Country bar ambience.

    Steak sandwich

    Some things were Out- "Stand"- ing. The tuna tacos from the appetizer portion of their menu. OMG the best I've ever had. Three of them with lots of diced soy marinated cubes of fresh tuna, mango slaw and wasabi crema. I will go back and get a double order next time. Outstanding Steak sub with fries. The main reason I went was for the ribs. A half a rack served with awesome best potato salad and a few pickle chips. The ribs were pretty with a nice smoke ring. They were not very warm when brought to the table. I wish they had been warmer.and they had far too much dry "rub" on them. The seasoning was very present and a bit too much for me. They are served dry rub style. Another plus -- The atmosphere was great, large outdoor area, pet friendly, lots of social distancing but still enough picnic tables to support a good amount of patrons. Staff was friendly, good drinks, clean bathrooms and indoor dining available.

    If you want a warm friendly welcome is the place & with community minded management! They kindly hosted a fundraiser last Friday for the Bradford Microfund. We had hoped the band would be outside in their garden but due to The weather being iffy we had to be inside. still the atmosphere was lively and fun. If you like smoked pulled pork or Thai shrimp you must make a stop here. They have a smoker in their garden! Huge thanks to Joy and Ron for their support. And to their staff that was attentive and added to the joy of the evening. Three cheers for the bartenders and the lack of rain which gave people the option to sit outside in the garden. and one more thank you for everyone who bought raffle tickets to support us that night. Happy summer everyone

    Blackberry Mojito

    My husband and I came here for dinner on Thursday night for our 2nd COVID date night out since March. We called on the way to ask if they were busy and we were told that had some tables open in the outdoor area. We were promptly seated when we arrived and it was nice to see that there was a bottle of hand sanitizer on each of the tables for patrons to use before, during and after their meals. There was an acoustic performer outside which typically would have been annoying, but his music was gentile, peaceful, not too loud and actually very enjoyable. Great job sir. We started with a blackberry mojito and a beer. For appetizers, we ordered the Caulibomb (which was fantastic and inspired us to try and recreate it at home later this week) and the fried cheese curds (that were good, but like super, super salty). My husband got a burger that was really big and filling, he enjoyed it. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich. It had a nice flavor to it, but not exactly as I expected. It was made of what appeared to be thigh/dark meat, not white chicken breast. It lacked mayo and upon my 3rd to last bite, I discovered half a sliced grape. Then I remembered that it was supposed to have grapes in it...so either it lacked grapes too or the batch wasn't mixed well. Both of our orders came with french fries, reminiscent of McDonald's, delicious, but definitely like theirs. Our 2nd round of drinks were better than the first. Oh and this is key... They have a swing outside, right next to some of the tables. Any child who apparently has visited this restaurant before knows about it, will leave their families/tables and migrate over to it to play. During our meal, we witnessed 6-7 kids (from 3 different tables/families) use it alone and together, all unsupervised and UNMASKED, coming uncomfortably close by our tables. I wish the servers would have addressed them to put masks on. That or perhaps their parents could have not been as oblivious. So needless to say, if you are looking for a soothing night out at this time (like we were since we have 2 kids under 5 years old at home), don't be seated near that swing!!

I originally planned to sit at the bar since I was dining solo, but it was packed for happy hour (always a good sign). I ended up in the dining room instead, and honestly, it worked out great. Service was quick and attentive from the start. My server, Christina, checked in on me several times without being overbearing, and I really appreciated how often my water was refilled especially since I skipped alcohol this visit. For food, I went all in: a dozen oysters, bang bang shrimp bao buns, and salmon sushi rolls. I finished with the crème brûlée cheesecake (which I already knew I loved from their sister restaurant). Standouts for me were the oysters, the bao buns, and that cheesecake absolutely delicious. The sushi rolls were fresh and flavorful, just a bit oversized for that perfect bite. Overall, a great experience with solid food and attentive service. I'll definitely be back maybe next time I'll snag a bar seat!

Sitting by the water gives the restaurant a laid back, summer seafood spot feel that makes it easy to enjoy your time there. That said, if you're looking for a restaurant with a wide variety of seafood options or more creative seafood preparations, this probably isn't the place to go. We started with the chips and guacamole appetizer, which tasted good, but the portion size was pretty small for the price. The raw little neck clams were one of the highlights of the meal, very fresh, clean tasting, and exactly what you'd want from a seafood spot. For entrées, the cod sandwich was surprisingly solid. It was a nice size, fairly priced, and felt like one of the better values on the menu. The ahi tuna wrap was also good overall, but it felt like it was missing a stronger or more flavorful dressing to really bring everything together. The lobster roll was decent, but for the price, there simply wasn't enough lobster in it to justify the cost. Overall, there were definitely some enjoyable parts of the meal, especially the fresh shellfish and the waterfront atmosphere. The biggest downside was the pacing of service, as there were long waits between dishes throughout the meal. Still, for a casual waterfront stop with straightforward seafood options, Nellie's delivers a decent experience.
