Don't go here, if you are lucky enough to get seated without waiting, it all goes down hill from there. It took 20 minutes to take our order and another 10 minutes to bring our drinks. I ordered a two egg omelet cooked light, specified," not brown" with home fries and toast, seemingly easy. After waiting an hour and twenty minutes,watching others seated after us,who had extensive orders,getting served ahead of us. It came out looking like more then a 3 egg omelet, overcooked and brown! The home fries weren't cooked. My husbands sausage and home fries were also cold and his pancakes tasted like they came from a card board box. I would give no stars except I don't want it to look like I forgot to pick one. read more

Their breakfast as just OK! You can get better breakfast at other breakfast places. The service was slow not very attentive! I have only been there once and I don't plan on going back...! read more

So, ironically, a sign in toast says "Be nice, or get out." but none of their employees abide by this. Not only did they get my order wrong, not fill up my coffee once, and give me pancakes that tasted like they went sour, but they were rude to us, and everyone in there. They give unneeded attitude to everyone walking in and created an uncomfortable atmosphere. We clearly finished our food fast, cleaned up our table and put our food to the side, obviously in a hurry but she took 12 whole minutes and was talking to other employees and ignoring us. When she asked how our food was I honestly told her it did not taste right and she rudely yelled, "Theres nothing we can do about it!!!" and stormed off. I think our dollar tip was too much... NEVER COMING AGAIN!!!! read more

Best breakfast I've ever had, and I've had a few. Buttermilk pancakes and bacon was stellar. A bit of a wait but worth it!

Always busy and always excellent ! That goes hand in hand when people love ur service and food. Omelets Mediterranean are fantastic ! Good parking and go early. The owners are amazing hard workers with an interest to serve. We have been going now for years since they first opened. Best breakfast in Hull Scituate cohasset area. Rusi. read more

Toast has some good food, but the service is terrible. The owner and a lot of the staff are extremely rude. They always seem angry and judgemental. I've known people who decided to work here and they have told me that this restaurant is awful as well. They were being extremely disrespected by their boss and peers. If you decide to go here, I highly suggest ordering your food to go! read more

Saw this place in the Best of South Shore and had to try it- stopped in on my way to work one morning expecting more of a deli counter set up and was surprised to learn it is a little restaurant. I was already late, so I asked the waitress how long it would be for a sandwich to go, she assured me it would be pretty quick so I ordered an egg and cheese on marble to go. I was walking around looking at artwork for what felt like 2 minutes when called me over to ring me in. The sandwich was delicious, the price was right, and the service was great. Can't wait to go back and actually sit down! read more

My GF lives less than half a mile away so I spend a lot of time here for breakfast on the weekends. Parking is ample enough. The view is absolutely spectacular. The wooden tables by the window are reserved for 3 or more so that can be annoying if 2 of you want a window-view table. The other tables can hold 4 or more so I'm not sure why the numbers' game. The service is always really sweet & I enjoy myself every time. The food, of course, is amazing. I don't like hash browns but I always eat theirs. Try "The Wave". It has everything you need. read more

Our favorite breakfast spot for a relaxed morning. The food is consistently delicious. The staff are friendly and attentive. This is not fast food, so be prepared to enjoy time for a conversation and a lovely ocean view after ordering. I love the omelets, cranberry pecan toast, and anything on the special board (especially huevos rancheros). Patrons are expected to be polite (should be the standard everywhere) and if you are you'll have an excellent experience. read more

Stopped in for breakfast and glad I did. This is one of the few places where you can get an eggbeater omelette rather than just egg whites. You can also get soy breakfast patties should you want to go vegan. I usually do not like American coffee but theirs is pretty good - not the weak brown stuff you find every place else. My veggie omelette was nicely done with a generous amount of veggies, shredded potatoes, turkey sausage and toast. The serving was quite generous and the service was friendly, prompt and I could drink as much coffee as I wanted. Overall definitely worth it for a hearty breakfast. In season it might be more rushed but I could linger as long as I wanted. read more

Wonderfully eclectic decor with local flavor: beach sheik meets throwback Thursday at a Flea market. Casual atmosphere and full of patrons the Saturday morning we stopped in. I had the special Brioche French Toast with egg white and it was simply amazing. We also tried the Omelette special, bacon mushroom and Swiss. The omelette was generously sized and did not disappoint! The kitchen is small which leads the longer wait times. The food and atmosphere are worth a look. The wait can be tough on young ones, and parties over 5 will want to split up or go to a larger venue. Come here for good food and a casual, vibrant atmosphere, I know we'll be back! :) read more

My experience was great. Sat at the bar, good coffee good food. No complaints at all. I would definitely recommend.

RUDE STAFF I'm not picky, in fact I eat out a lot and have very little negative to say about the places I've eaten on the South Shore--Cohasset and Hull in particular. I've been to Toast at least three or four times. Each time I went the food was exceptional; however, my experience with their wait staff was far from exceptional. It is obvious that Toast has plenty of customers and doesn't usually have a problem filling up the their small venue with hungry people in the morning. There is little standing room and a sign that greets each customer letting them know that they MUST WAIT TO BE SEATED. My partner and I entered Toast this morning and stood by the sign(there is nowhere else to wait or sit) and watched some servers do their job while passing us without saying a word. Not even a customary "hello" or "we will be with you in a minute". Regardless we continued to stand there until a server prepared a table in front of us and then asked us to move out of her way in a tone of voice that was as abrupt, forceful, and as stern as she possibly could have made. Little did we know there was another couple waiting outside to be seated. Still, I apologized for being in her way and proceeded to go sit where the other couple was waiting before us outside. On my way out the door the waitress smirked and kind of shook her head while telling me "patience is a virtue". Now, I had no problem even after my initial negative interaction with this waitress. But, her sly remark to me as I held the door for her really took me back. Again, I've been to Toast a few times at least, each time I've felt this kind of vibe from the staff. The kind of vibe that makes you feel as a customer that you mean nothing to them. That Toast has enough customers so that they don't feel the need to respect the conventional customer/employee relationship. This type of temperament the staff maintains is reflective of the manager. I think her name is Mrs. Murray--this woman is an absolute battle axe. Every word that comes out of her mouth sounds like an order from a drill sergeant, even when she's asking you what you would like to order!!! She walks around with her leg braces and bosses her customers around like they are minimum wage employees working a sweatshop. I have given Toast a few chances considering how good it's food is. But every time I give them the benefit of the doubt I feel disrespected as a customer. Again, I don't get upset every time someone looks at me the wrong way but I felt these experiences at their restaurant should be shared. I don't feel right giving them my money. Thanks Yelp. Oh yeah, I remember my first bad experience with them...my friends and I went for an early breakfast on a weekday with not many people at Toast. Place was basically empty and one of our cars got their earlier than the other. Naturally the two of us who has already arrived went in to get a seat for a party of four for when the other two came. She made us wait outside until the other car came and we could all go in together. Mind you it was empty. read more

I highly recommend the breakfast burrito; it was the best I have ever tasted outside the west coast. I'll give this place bonus points for a great ambiance. read more

Cute little breakfast & brunch place with amazing food, big portions and a cozy atmosphere. Definitely a must when you're in the area!

Okay, so I have never publicly posted a review of anything, ever. I am absolutely compelled to share my experience at Toast. My husband I are pretty selective about where we have our Sunday breakfast, and Toast is right up there as one of the best places, if not the very best. Our breakfast today was, hands down, one of the best we have ever had. Ever. Wendy was our waitress, and she was quite fabulous! She delivered our food and it was piping hot. Does it take a little longer to arrive than other places? Yes. Is it worth it? Yes. We actually like that. It gives us a little time to relax and enjoy our coffe and tea without feeling rushed. I had an egg sandwich today, and my husband had the wave (a little of everything from toast and eggs to silver dollar pancakes served with warm, real maple syrup.) Amazing flavors, super hot, fresh, made to order, food. And I just have to mention the hash browns. I am reading other reviews describing them as greasy. They are not greasy, but they do have oil in them. From what I would gather, a nice quality oil, at that. When I eat "greasy" food, I feel it after the meal. Not so with their hash browns or anything else that we have ever had here. The food quality here is always excellent. We tend to arrive early to avoid a wait, and enjoy the funky environment of the restaurant with the most incredible views of the ocean! Can't recommend this place enough. Just don't be in a huge rush, would be my only advice. read more

I grew up in Hull and every time I go back to Hull throughout the year I HAVE to visit my favorite breakfast place! There is a serious wait time on the weekends but if you get there before 9:00am or after 11:30 you should be OK, but in my opinion, it's totally worth the wait...and the wait for the food to come out...yes it's slow, but as the sign says on the wall, if you're in a hurry, you're in the wrong place. It's not just another greasy spoon place, it's quality food and my fav thing to order is the Wave, It's just the right amount of a little bit of everything, toast, eggs, silver dollar pancakes, bacon and hash browns. I also love a double cappuccino. I think they use Lavazza beans, not sure. It's a small space, and a bit noisy but definitely a staple on my list of places to visit while I'm home. read more

The food is always perfect! My favorite is the hashbrowns. And the service is great & very friendly. Love this place, best breakfast around! read more

Burnt toast was excellent! Service is slow but it's understandable because they're so busy. Very nice people though. Wait times weren't that bad at all considering. read more

I love this place! The food is always really good - very tasty and fresh. We always bring family and friends with us and Toast has never failed. The omelette's are tasty and huge and coffee is always available as they leave individual pots for you to keep your mug refreshed. The restaurant has been mostly full every time we've ever gone with waits on the weekends for sure. Toast has crayon setups for the kids and it always works out well. read more

Best biscuits and gravy, good mimosas, local crowd, view of the sea - everything's just right. Food takes a while to arrive but good food takes time, so let your eyes rest on the surf, and make a new friend :) read more

Great breakfast restaurant located on the water with some special combos for brunch...and they even have a limited beer and wine selection. Toast is a very popular restaurant so the wait can be tough. read more

Owned by 2 of the best people you'd ever meet and serving some amazing food with their own spin. Open for breakfast and lunch, stop in and go for the special if the day. You won't be disappointed!! read more

Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hull, Massachusetts

We ate here on Saturday morning around 11am - no line when we came in. We lucked out as after that parties were kept waiting a bit for at table. We both had the Burnt Toast - it was delicious. Creme Brule French Toast. They use a blow torch on sanded sugar on the French Toast which makes a hard crust that was delicious. We seemed to wait a bit for our meal but it was worth, Our waiter - I think Michael, was excellent very attentive but not pushing us out the door. It is a small restaurant over looking the water. i would definitely return. read more

This restaurant just earned the distinction of hosting the absolute worst public dining experience my boyfriend and I have ever had. We were very disappointed because we were told the food was great and were recommended by a friend. Too bad we never got to try the food. I will preface this review by stating that I am the last person to use the internet to bash a restaurant. I understand that every restaurant has a bad day or a hiccup, but after reading other prior reviews combined with our experience yesterday, I feel compelled to inform others what they are getting into. Upon walking in, there is a sign stating to "Please Wait To Be Seated". Pretty standard for any restaurant I would say, but the space was really small so we decided it would be best to sit at the bar where there were plenty of seats open. I apologize if we were supposed to have someone seat us at the bar, but with my experience at almost all restaurants, the bar is normally first come, first serve and seat yourselves. We were approached by an extremely unwelcoming older woman who we think may have been the owner. Instead of greeting us appropriately, she snapped at us with a sarcastic, "Sorry, didn't see you sit down!". I just figured she thought we had been sitting for awhile and felt bad we hadn't been greeted sooner. I later found out that wasn't the case. We were waited on by a friendly and attentive young man and we both ordered "The Wave" - eggs, bacon, toast and pancakes; nothing too complicated. After about 25 minutes went by we started to wonder where our food was. My boyfriend politely asked if our food was being worked on and the response was that we were up next. Not a problem at all, we really weren't that concerned at that point. After at least another 10-15 minutes went by, we were really starting to wonder what the heck was going on, especially since there were others that sat AFTER us and were already eating. I kindly asked the woman to check for us and with a snarl, she pointed at other tables to let us know that they came in before us and just got there food so ours should be coming. We corrected her in that there were actually customers that came in after us that were already eating and explained that we were surprised it was taking 30-40 minutes for breakfast when it really wasn't even busy. She walked away and mumbled under her breath, "Oh first it's 30, now it's 40?", THEN when she got into the kitchen she said, "Well what do you expect when you seat yourselves!?" That was the straw that broke the camel's back. We sat ourselves because we chose the bar. What does that have to do with the long wait time for food?? After listening to this ghastly woman treat us so poorly we decided that we would not spend our money at this establishment and left. After reading other reviews we later found out that Toast is known for a long wait time for food. Had we known that, we would have been better prepared, but this woman should never have treated us or anyone like that. The prior reviews tell it all. She is offensively miserable, treats her paying customers with absolute disrespect, and should NOT be in customer service. There is even a sign on the wall that reads, "Be Kind, Or Leave". Maybe she should practice what her restaurant preaches. If she is in fact the owner, don't bother spending your money here. You may have to travel further if you want breakfast, but take it from me and the other reviews, the trip will be well worth it! read more

I go here every once in awhile if I get to the beach really early and haven't eaten. It's a decent spot the food is ok, but nothing you couldn't really make at home. In fact the food you make at home might be better to be honest. But if you're hungry/lazy then you might not mind it. The staff is not too friendly, although I will say it seems to depend on the day and their mood. They really need new chairs at the bar because those chairs are super uncomfortable and no one wants to sit there for too long. It can also get pretty crowded and it's a tiny place so if you're in a group you may end up waiting for a while. All in all I give it an average rating. It's not that great but it's not horrible read more

Dont go on a weekend if you are in a rush. The service is slow and the place is popular. But when your food comes - chocolate chip pancakes, delicious egg dishes etc. - you will forget about the wait. The food is delicious! read more

I've been to Toast four times. PROS: great views, great tasty food (lunch or breakfast), nice waitress, huge portions CONS: rude owner/manager, long wait, can be extremely long--Its taken me 2 hours to wait for table, wait for meal and eat..... about the owner/manager...A friend gave me a gift card....We used it and left the balance which was about 6 dollars + a very good tip for our lovely waitress who is both sweet and efficient. The owner had not seen us tip the waitress and was chasing us out the door telling us that the balance we left (the six dollars) on the gift card could not be used for a tip. We explained that we had tipped the waitress in cash and simply could not wait for another gift card for the 6 dollars. We were so mortified that we were being accused of not leaving a tip for our wonderful waitress--who at this time was about to crawl under a table...when she discovered this drama!! I would not mind waiting for the table/food if the owner/manager of Toast had a better attitude. ps...if you are a good restaurant looking for a good waitress that would be an asset to your business I bet you could find a few with lots of patience in this place. A few extra dollars and some kindness would probably seal the deal! read more

These long redundant reviews are the stupidest thing I have ever seen, thousands of rude, dirty tourists crowd this restaurant and the beach every summer, wouldn't you be a little nerved if your sweet hometown turned into a monster for 4 months of the year??? Great place: two hardworking, wholesome people own this restaurant and do the best they can considering the economic circumstances. The chef makes great food, and so the front of house is a little rude, it adds to the small town type atmosphere. I love it here, it's cute, friendly, and very inviting. I would go everyday if I could. read more

The breakfast is great. The servers are wonderful, they have a great attitude and make the experience a joy. The food is wonderful too. There is always a wait, but you know what? It's a tiny breakfast place, and that's to be expected. read more

I live less than a quarter mile away, yet I have only been there three times. It has been very busy all three times. The food is excellent and the waitstaff tries hard and seems to be pleasant. However, in two of the three visits, I have been treated very rudely by the apparent owner of the establishment. I guess if there are people lined up out the door, it is not necessary to value every customer. I'd like to go back--it's an easy walk--but I can have breakfast and be treated rudely at home! read more

The woman behind the counter (the owner?) was outlandishly curt and rude, she seems to think "Toast" is an exceptional breakfast joint and that she can treat paying customers with disrespect, well, she is sadly mistaken. "Toast" and its food, and wait staff is mediocre at best. And way overpriced. Why would anyone pay $2.50 for a cup of coffee when most places include the cost with their breakfast specials? The waitress was overly friendly to the point where she made my two guest and I feel very uncomfortable. Our breakfast didn't come to us until 35 minutes after we ordered and when it did, it was stone cold. No apology. We witnessed the woman behind the counter (the owner?) being impolite to a man who wanted to place a take-out order (they don't do take-out orders) There is also a sign that says that "Toast" is a cell free zone. Really? I am not one for using my cell phone when I go out, however, this is the age of the cell phone and if I want to use it, I damn will and whenever I please. I don't like dictatorship served with my eggs. --If you are taking my MONEY do not tell me what I can and cannot do, ever! --unless it's smoking which is reinforced by law. This place has too many rules, one sign on the wall said something like "if you're in a hurry you came to the wrong place" The sign was correct, I came to the wrong place. Not because I was in a hurry, but because I don't like a list of rules with my flapjacks! The entire environment of "Toast" has a tone of "We're doing you a favor by serving you breakfast" Guess what "Toast" there are thousands of breakfast places on the South Shore and they're all much better. The truth is: "Toast" is not worth the time and expense because it's just not that good. Cold food, average service, incivility. Don't be fooled by the view of the ocean, go to Dunkin Doughnuts and buy a breakfast sandwich and sit on the wall if you are in need of an ocean view while you eat your eggs. Clearly, they are total novices of the restaurant business and they need to bow to the customer and not vice versa. --And for all this irritation and rudeness, it cost us 50 bucks for three people and we didn't order anything out of the ordinary. When we placed our money on the table and starting counting to pay the bill, the woman behind the counter came running over to take it, she did this within 10 seconds of us taking out our money. No thanks and never again. I work too hard for money and I am not tossing it to people who are rude and serve average food. No dice. No Toast! read more

I have not experienced the grumpy staff issues here that others seem to have witnessed. I've probably been here for breakfast about 20 times and lunch about 5 times, so lots of experience. Breakfast here is remarkable. I love virtually all breakfast items and everything I've tried is SO good. Food is fresh. Hot items are hot. Cold items are cold. Lunch is also delicious. Look for the specials of the day because those items are truly "special", but often sell out. Salads and sandwiches are yummy and breakfast is served all day. Yes, Toast gets busy, and I doubt I'd wait if I had young kids. The small intimate space and the crowd makes for a happy noisiness. It is steps to the beach, so take a walk after you've packed it all in! Or you can shop at the nearby consignment store and the Hull Artists store. Two potential issues that may make for grumpy patrons: 1) sometimes the time between your order and appearance of your plates seems long. Be patient! It's a small kitchen and worth a little wait, and 2) the coffee is only so-so, but the staff is at the ready for refills. Highly recommend. read more

After a short wait to be seated on a Saturday morning, we were warmly greeted and brought our drinks right away. Coffee was fresh and hot and the salted caramel move was rich and warming to the core. The service was great- all the girls were polite and charming. There was a bit of the wait on the food, but don't let that deter you! The wait was definitely to ensure that only the highest of quality would reach your table. Everything was delicious. The scrambled eggs were light and fluffy, hashbrowns were crispy on the edges but, not burnt, the pancakes were perfect (and served with REAL maple syrup!), and the toast! Well, with a name like toast it had better be good. They certainly did not disappoint. I couldn't find a single thing wrong with this establishment. Fantastic job Toast! read more

I love Toast, the eggs benedict are amazing . If you want something sweet get the burnt toast, perfection (no syrup necessary). Coffee was great and I never saw the bottom of my cup. I also get the lunch specials and take them home for dinner. I love the American Chop Suey - just like mom used to make. Everything is cooked to order so sometimes a bit of a wait but for perfection, worth every minute. As you can tell I'm a big Toast fan. I think I'll head down now, feeling like a few scrambled, toast with jam, piping hot coffee and maybe just one pancake on the side. read more

We Waited 15 mins to be seated. Had my grandson with us who is only 2 and it took 50 mins for our breakfast to get to the table and it wasn't even HOT. By that time my grandson didn't want to eat. The head waitress with the grey hair was sarcastic and rude! Blaming the wait on Sunday when I have eaten there many of weekends when it was more busy than today! Never will go there again! read more

Let me start by saying I've never felt the need to write a review for Yelp but after my experience today at Toast in Hull I feel compelled to let as many people as possible know the manager/server that waited on me today had such a negative, nasty attitude that it bordered on being downright rude. I can't understand how an establishment expects to be successful when the disdain for their patrons is palpable. I will never ever go back. Furthermore, in honor of my waitress, I would suggest they rename the place "Toad"... but that would be an insult to toads. Do yourself a favor and get the best homemade corned beef hash on the South Shore at The Early American in Quincy. read more

The food is tasty but you'll probably be waiting a while for it. Two of us were sat right away, but we ended up waiting about 35 minutes for pancakes and French toast. The meal was fluffy and sweet and our server was nice and attentive, but they should probably hire more cooks for their busy times. read more

Terrible. Not only was the staff unfriendly,arguing with customers, but the food was awful. It's not hard to make a decent waffle but somehow they managed to mess that up. The pancakes had the same tasteless batter that the waffles did, needless to say this was one of the worst breakfast spots in the area. Not sure how it got great reviews... Save your money! read more
