I just finished eating the worst crab cakes ever. It was take out, and it was "blackened" even though it wasn't supposed to be! I also ordered clam chowder alnd it never showed up. Overall, a really bad experience. Steer clear of this place. Let this be a lesson. I wish I had known

Interesting local diner in what would have been an out of the way place for us, except for its location on the Tri Community rail trail. Good service and good food with a local atmosphere.

This hurts to do. But…..Never again.The food was awful. I should have taken Photos. If I went outside to my trash can I could show you what I got.The corned beef for the Irish benny was like dog food. I swear it was squeezed from a bag.The potatoes/home fries were charred black and like rubber. The “onions” in them were burnt to the point where I’m not even sure what they were thinking. A clear sign they were reheated from the day prior.The menu online has prices from years ago……2 orders of eggs Irish eggs benny and 2 chocolate chip pancakes were 38$ (48 cause I tipped 10$ on a TO GO ORDER).Menu said 11$ for the Bennys….. 8$ pancakes I guess???It’s sad to see such lack of commitment and consistency. I used to come here once a week (sometimes twice!) with a coworker when I worked around the corner years ago.I’ll never come back.This is a yet another place that should have closed during the pandemic.The one positive thing i can say is that the hostesses are absolutely fantastic. I wish them the best.This place truly makes me wish Frannie’s next dooor was still open.

I like this place but will need a basic request to remain a customer and think others will agree i ordered sausage egg cheese sandwich poached egg, one egg not 2 and if possible ketchup on sandwich there was no cheese, 2 eggs and eggs were fried ok not the "biggest deal" but means did not read a single note and the whole thing with delivery is people want something specific at a specific time, I wanted a poached egg w cheese. Anyway I'll try one more time but really a request to the establishment - please read delivery orders.

Nice place conveniently open till 3pm on Sundays and 9pm during the week. The breakfast was decent and they had real maple syrup as an option. Food came out great nothing was over cooked or burnt. We were satisfied with the amount of food and price for specials. There is a small parking lot in the back that made finding a spot convenient.Parking: Small parking lot out back but street parking around area was available.

This place is everything a diner needs to be. It's genuinely old school - not a "nouveau sexy" whatever in Cambridge (nothing wrong with that, I love that stuff too) - this place has stuck to its roots. Great service, solid breakfast, 'nuff said.
