this place needs to update their hours on google. I drove all the way over to the independence location just for them to be closed. ridiculous.

Experience Sucked... Mom got wrong order, then never got her second one. Didn't have time to wait for a 3rd try. Out of crab, out of Brussels. No manager? Burgers were delicious.

I ordered delivery through grub hub but driver got lost and my food still was still warm and delicious when it arrived. But the service from the restaurant itself was even more phenomenal. They called to let me know my order had been ready for a little while and they had tried to contact the driver and the lady (i wish i got her name she was so nice) said she was willing to step out to help find the driver and then called me again to let me know they had found the driver and my order was on the way. 10/10 bangor bowl, home fries, and colossal cinnamon roll

Great menu. Friendly service. Tasty breakfast. If you want speciality coffees be sure to check out separate menu on table. I missed it ?.

It was my first time. We went on a Sunday. Place was steady, service was good. I had the avocado toast with scrambled eggs and bacon. It was so bland I had to add hot sauce. After that it was good, food was fresh.

Was super excited to try Anchor Allies since it's close to the house, woman-owned and has a really extensive and fun menu. Came with a friend around brunch time on a Sunday, expecting a wait which was very short. We were seated at a booth with plenty of room which was nice. The hostess was very nice. We ordered specialty coffee drinks which were delicious, definitely the best part of our meal. Our server was also nice, but seemed to be pretty uneducated on the menu offerings. We ordered the deviled eggs as an appetizer. They were a bit bland and messily presented. Some eggs had a ton of bacon, others had a much smaller piece. They tasted like average deviled eggs you would grab at a neighborhood picnic, not restaurant quality. Onto entrees: we came for brunch but some of the lunch items sounded delicious so I ordered a burger. The mushroom and blue cheese burger sounded fantastic since that's one of my favorite flavor combinations. When it arrived, I noticed that there weren't any mushrooms on the burger. I asked the server and she said she wasn't sure why. After a bit of waiting, she came back over and said they didn't have any mushrooms. If I had known this previously, I wouldn't have ordered it but sucked it up and ate the burger. 10 minutes later, she came back with a small ramekin of mushrooms. The miscommunication was frustrating since I had then eaten much of the burger. We also spent a good majority of the meal without silverware. Overall, not a great experience.

Service was horrible. And the bathrooms are disgusting and there wasn't any toilet paper.

I wish they had the one thing I wanted to try on the menu. But overall, I like this restaurant and will be returning soon.

-waitress forgot about us and stated such-no strawberries, Brussels sprouts, or sweet potato fries.-my fork had hardened cheese on it from a time past-i was given the leftover hardened grease from the fri trap. You can see in the photo.-the waitress did discount my coffee for the wait in an attempt make up for it.

Worst place I’ve ever been to. Dirty utensils , dirty plates. Food was not great. I will never come back.
Came here for brunch the other morning with my husband and I enjoyed it so much. Had a breakfast sandwich with ham, eggs over hard and provolone cheese. Homemade seasoned potatoes. Husband had the BLT on white toast w/ff. Loved the FF! Cute inside and tons of drink specials weekly! Will be back!
