    Ordered toasted bagels with cream cheese on 3 different occasions. They burned them 2x, and once it looks like it wasn't toasted at all. They need to adjust the temperature of the toaster because serving a burnt black charred bagel repeatedly isn't acceptable. The workers look like chatty teenagers who aren't paying attention to the quality of food being served. They don't know what kind of herbs are in their cream cheese. The bagels themselves are also pretty dry and tough, like day-old quality. Cream cheese layer is thin.

    Imagine a Panera, only with bagels as the main attraction, but a lesser bagel than even Panera. Beautiful space, with comfy couches, tables, and booths, plus outdoor tables as well. Tasteful decor. A good place from which to telecommute. -- Bagels: They certainly look okay, but to me they came across as just round white bread with holes. Basically, Lender's. Both the onion (first visit) and pumpernickel (second visit) lacked flavor and texture. On the plus side, they're heated whole rather than cut and toasted. -- Spreads: My first visit's bagel's lox "schmear" (their term) was a thin, dry, chalky spread with barely any salmon flavor, and definitely not creamy. The second visit's veggie spread was thick but stiff and cold. Decent coffee and inviting space, but for both bagels and spreads (I'm not saying "schmear"), below average. I rank them a distant third among the three local ones (them, NY Bagels, Bagels Plus) and no match for any in the Boston area. At least they're better than Dunkin.

    Came here for some brunch food now that it's finally open! Upon entering, the place felt very clean and lively. All the staff were extremely friendly and the manager also! I got a chicken salad sandwich with onion bagel, a gourmet pesto Mac and cheese, and a caramel latte. Everything was delicious and tasted very clean/fresh. There is a lot of seating inside. I will definitely return!

    Ordered online and was ready and warm when I arrived. Tried the Vermonter and maple coffee. The outdoor seating was great for my pup and I.

    We recently picked up the fried chicken dinner for four from Nan's Kitchen, and overall it was a…read moregood meal. The pickup was easy. The location has a few tables but mostly everyone was doing takeout. The star of the show was definitely the fried chicken. It was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. If you're a fried chicken fan, it's easy to see why this is one of their most popular offerings. The biscuits were another standout. Warm, fluffy, and absolutely delicious with the butter and hot honey. I could easily make a meal out of those alone. The sides, however, were a bit disappointing compared to the chicken. They were fine, but nothing particularly memorable. The broccoli was the biggest letdown, as it wasn't cooked enough for my taste and was still quite firm. While the sides could use some improvement, the excellent fried chicken and biscuits make this a meal I'd order again. Next time, I may just choose different sides.

    Everything went well! From placing order to picking it up! Placed chicken order 2hrs ahead of times…read morerequested, and side orders. Everything was excellent! Nothing i ordered had beans in it (yuk) saved that for him lol. He ordered the side of corn. The cucumber, rice & broccoli 8 sides are awesome! Rolls too! Thank you Christian for recommending the broccoli it was awesome like I said!! I really suggest Nans recipe for the chicken!

A cute, unpretentious place. They were closing as I arrived. I was greeted warmly by a very nice and pleasant man, who may have been the owner.

Well...it's expensive...and not quite worth the dough you're paying for it. First off, when we got there, it was dead. I had anticipated a line...a large dining area...long buffet tables...but no, none of the above. They do have an omelet station which is probably the only highlight of the place. Don't misinterpret...the food isn't awful, but sheesh, for $20 a head, you want to see some kickass brunch with hungry diners clambering to get in...but no. Actually, this was two days before St Patrick's Day, so they did have corned beef and cabbage, (Boiled Dinner), on the buffet and that was actually pretty good too. An abnormally large table of desserts and a chocolate fountain, while sounding great in theory, in practice all of these desserts looked like plastic demos of what a good dessert should look like. I didn't go for dessert. Most of the other dishes *might* have been good had there been a quick turnover rate and fresh batches brought out. The lack of "mouth-traffic" left this brunch as a disappointment at best. Maybe if they charged about $10 a place...it might be a place worth stopping to get your *nom* on some average, but cheap, eats. $20...c'mon now. So two stars...b/c: Meh. I've experienced better.

Banquet seating across one wall and high top seating in the one room dining area with a bar/drink area and coffee station. Lots of great breakfast choices. I'm so glad I went with the Western omelette. It was one of the best ones I've ever had! Perfect amount of perfectly sized ham, onion, peppers and cheese melted throughout and the wheat toast that comes with it is only one piece but it's a very large thick Bread, which was delicious. I ordered it with hashbrowns, which I was excited about, but they are not actually traditional hashbrowns ( shredded potatoes grilled), they're like McDonald's hashbrowns. They were kind enough to switch out for the home fries, which were very tasty. Build your own burrito $12 was nice addition but the hollandaise was lacking on the benny. They also had some breakfast/lunch specials, and who doesn't love biscuits and gravy!? so good! Service was friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be back soon! Lots of parking that's shared in the shopping center. Note: they have full liquor license and open until 2pm on Saturday

One guy-- Rosco himself-- running the whole show. -- Pancakes and Sausage: Very large and thick pancakes, so two were more than enough. More importantly, a nice slightly sweet flavor elevated even further by a perfect browning from the griddle. Somewhat but not fully fluffy (my gold standard is Palace Diner in Maine). Real maple syrup available for a $2 surcharge, but a bargain for the large 5oz cup of it. Sausages fairly humdrum, but solid. It's the pancakes that'll get me back. -- Veggie Omelette and Home Fries: This was my wife's order. I'm not sure if it's because she omitted the toast, but it was a gigantic serving with an equally generous portion of the potatoes. She loved the omelette for its unique flavors (some pickled vegetables involved) and the cooked through eggs. I loved the homefries, stealing several and enjoying the crispness and liberal use of seasoning. No onions involved, but very good. Coffee was standard New England Coffee. Tea included a surprise unsolicited refill. Service was outstanding. We came for the food, so it didn't matter either way to us, but for what it's worth, the TV played Newsmax, which may or may not be your cup of tea.
