Met some friends here for breakfast. The staff were great, the food was awesome and plentiful and the place was cute (but tiny). read more

See all

The food is very good, the prices are reasonable and the homemade hash can't be beat. That said, some of the waitstaff have an uncaring and dismissive attitude. No need for that. read more

The best.... always always great food, fantastic prices, convenient location.. great people great regulars.. I'm moving to Exeter soon and I'm excited to become one myself! read more

One of my favorite diners of all time. Very unassuming as it's basically at the back of a convenience store and there is limited seating so sometimes there is a wait but it's very much worth it. Super nice staff and really excellent food read more

I would go back, but I wouldn't wait in line. Trackside is definitely keeping it real. Try to get in early as the place is very small and can get cramped. I lucked out and sat at the counter with no one next to me until the end of my meal. It was 100% better than when the stool was filled. Felt like I was in an airplane seat. The service is really what stood out to me, that was great. The food? priced right but nothing to brag about. My hash was room temp, my benedict had no hollandaise sauce and the potatoes were under cooked, almost hard. I was surprised. Maybe I just hit on a bad day or should have ordered something else. read more

We tried Trackside for the first time and loved it! Great prices, great food, and the staff was so personable. Everyone seemed to know everyone and there were clearly a lot of regulars. The wait time for the food was short but it was also very busy inside, so that tells you how good the food is. Give it a try if you haven't! We didn't mind stopping at the ATM to come here. We'll be back! read more

Excellent breakfast friendly staff. It is in the back of a grocery store and is part of the old train station

Love finding a place like this! Perfect spot for a good breakfast. Highly recommend the breakfast sandwich and breakfast burrito.

This place makes me feel like I've stepped back in time - in a good way. Tucked into the back of a convince store, with cute little bar this place has a wonderful nostalgic feel to it. The food isn't fancy but it's yummy and better than most basic breakfast places. The service is great. Worth waiting in line for the whole experience! read more

Amazing. Wonderful. French toast is the best I've ever had! Great prices. Quick service. Walking distance. I'd go there every day if I could read more

Small morning cafe. Good food and friendly service. Conveniently next train station ,grab a bite before your morning commute.

9am on a Sunday we were sat right away our waitress was VERY attentive and it was packed in there, but everyone was so nice ! Definitely going back! read more

The corned beef hash is seriously the ultimate hash. All other hash is shameful by comparison. Cash only. read more

Love the breakfast, staff and atmosphere. Always lively conversations at the counter. Great way to start the day!

Great food and service always! My boyfriend and I love this place A+++

This is a true hidden gem!! Great food, good value, friendly fast service!! Eggs Benedict was cooked perfectly with a great sauce and nice thick ham. The baked beans are like my mother used to make. The home fries had good flavor and the steak was thick, juicy and cooked just right. Under new owner - I highly recommend it!! read more

Terrific food Great service Old fashion atmosphere Diner style stools Small table area Home made corn beef hash outstanding Reasonable prices extensive menus Definitely return! read more

Great food for the money-hashbrowns and beans are the best. The only thing i wasn't impressed about was that they charged me $.50 for a half filled little plastic container of mustard to add to my beans! never seen that before when there's a ketchup bottle on the table! read more

My daughter has treatments in Exeter on a weekly basis. This is my new hangout while I wait for her. The food is delicious, not greasy. The wait staff and owner, friendly and welcoming. I definitely would recommend this diner. It is an out of the way gem tucked in back of a variety store. Thank you Yelp for helping me find it. And a shout out to Maggie, my waitress, who was wonderful. read more

This place came highly recommended, and it did not disappoint. I arrived a little before 8AM and had a choice of tables up back (the counter seats were full). By the time the rest of our party arrived at 8:15 or so, the place was packed and there was a line forming outside. I can definitely see why! Had a homemade corned beef hash and American cheese omelet w/rye toast & homefries. I had heard raves about the homemade hash, and it was REALLY GOOD! Price was reasonable, and the waitress was very friendly to our party of four. The one bit of constructive criticism I'd offer is re. the coffee. Unless I missed it, I didn't see a stronger alternative offered on the menu. I like my coffee to have a kick to it, and the coffee at your fine cafe doesn't. Overall still absolutely worthy of the 5 stars, because everything else was so good! read more

My favorite breakfast/lunch place around great value good food and the staff is pleasant and on point

I have ate here several times, but this time i had a waitress named maggie. she gave us horrible attitude, and was disrespectfully to us. overall ruined my experience here and made me not wanna come in again. she just handed us plates not giving it to the correct people who order it and rushed our whole experience. also forgetting some of our food we ordered. she's very messy when serving and has no manners. so if you go here and wanna actually enjoy your meal, ask to not have maggie :). read more

Absolutely the best homemade corned beef hash I have ever had !!! Whenever I am in town I eat here every morning. The service is friendly and outstanding. read more

Go into Trackside with an open mind. It's in the back of a convenience store. It's small with a bar area and a small dining area too. I can say, with absolute certainty, that trackside has the best pancakes I have ever and probably will ever have. Their blueberry pancakes are amazing and HUGE! I got two and couldn't finish them. I would, and have, recommend Trackside to everyone I know. It's definitely worth it. read more

We arrived in Exeter and were looking for a place that served a typical eggs and ham kind of breakfast. This is where we stumbled to. I'll start by saying the food was alright. Nothing special, but not bad. However, I can only rate this a 2 star due to the actual restaurant. Firstly, it's tucked in behind a corner store; extremely run down, and kind of dirty. Only about 7 tables. The meal was similar to that of a "truck stop" breakfast - Greasy. And the atmosphere makes you want to eat quick and run. And if you need to use the restrooms; hold it! Disgusting! Waitresses were very friendly though. This place will do the trick if you can't find anything else. read more

This is going to be our new go to breakfast place! If you can find it I highly recommend Trackside cafe for breakfast. My wife says it's like a breakfast speakeasy and I think that's kinda cool and exactly right. The difference between a regular speakeasy and this place is the friendliness of the staff , they were awesome! Attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. This morning our breakfast included a breakfast burrito which was stuffed with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and cheese and was excellent according to my wife. I ordered what I think what was the Exeter special, 2 eggs, 2 French toast, 2 bacon, 2 sausage and home fries. Believe it or not I added a side of white toast and a side of hollandaise to this massive breakfast and I ate. The whole. Thing! Everything was fantastic and we will be going back soon. Delicious and I highly recommend it. read more

Love this place portions are large prices low good atmosphere. ..... the best breakfast place around.... believe me I know.

Was working nearby with two coworkers and we had a bit of a break, so I came here to pick up food for us. We all got some version of eggs benny and they were all DELICIOUS! Great hollandaise sauce (very important in my opinion.) and the homemade hash was phenomenal. All of us ate EVERYTHING. read more

Best breakfast we have had in a long time. The staff are duper sweet and polite. The homemade corned beef hash is delicious! Its a must have. Blueberry pancakes are the size of your head...one was plenty and super tasty. Definatly a must go if you are near by in hampton beach! Be warned...its easy to drive by, its inside Harrys Variety Store. A small hole in the wall with small seating area and a dozen barstools, very charming and will visit again. read more

Great little dinner with cheerful service, delicious food and very inexpensive! $7 for many breakfast plates.

This place is easily the nicest place we have ever eaten. The pancakes are the size of your face and the Texas French Toast is fluffy and perfectly cooked. My boyfriend and I each ordered a ton of food and it is the first time we both finished it. The staff is super friendly and were patient with us when we weren't ready to order. The food came out fast, but it wasn't rushed. If you sit at the bar, you can practically see the food being made. If you're from out of town like we were, you'll get alot of laughs from the interactions of the regulars and the staff. We made sure to leave a generous tip. read more

Came in for breakfast on Saturday morning. Darcy's service was quick and friendly. Food was typical diner breakfast fare, except that the pancakes were huge. After 30' I was full for the day and I only spent $12 total for breakfast for me and my son. read more

It is not too bad diner but you can find so many diners like this one with with better service and better food. Nothing special. The food is avarage and so does service. read more

When they say hidden gem, they mean it! Good, solid, home cooked food. No-nonsense, friendly atmosphere. It's almost like a secret club for breakfast lovers. My husband and I love to try new places and we will absolutely be back for seconds and beyond! read more

Best lunch/breakfast joint in the town of Exeter hands down. The people are very very nice and the food is amazing. Every time I go I get the "buff chicken" sandwich with French fry's and it never disappoints. The fries are cooked to 100% perfection and the "buff chicken" is some of the best in town. This place is a 10/10 would recommend. read more

Like another review stated, TC is a "hole in the wall" in a "hole in the wall". Easy to just drive by, but you would be really missing a great breakfast. Service is very friendly and food is well prepared. Home made hash is delicious. There was a line to get in but it moved right along. Grandma also liked the western scramble. Overall great breakfast experience and we will be going back. read more

Excellent breakfast food! Pancakes are huge and delicious.

Got off the train hungover and this place was a godsend. Great food and great service. Best corned beef hash I've ever had. It's shredded or pulled not a mashed Patty like most other places. I think there was carrots in it too! read more
