Give the Green Eggs & Ham a try - delicious homemade sauce ! Also, reasonably priced for the amount of food you get. Chances are you'll leave here full, satisfied, and wanting to come back for more!
One of my favorites, expect the unexpected! You want to try and hit this place on a weekday when there aren't a lot of folks in there. They get super busy because it's so popular.
They have such a unique menu with flavors that just don't sound right on paper but when you take a bite your mouth does one heck of a happy dance ! Cool retro decor as well !!
Great cucumber bloody mary ! I had a falafal wrap and fries . Very yummy. Glynnis was amazing, but I did not find the door keepers welcoming or helpful. (It was a very busy day)
Order a whole breakfast and definitely throw some French toast (andamana) bread on the side
I love the atmosphere here. Their food and cocktails are always delicious. Very friendly staff . Excellent restaurant all around.
Don't miss this spot on the edge of town . Amazing, unique and delicious food. Funky decor. Great service.
The original Friendly Toast . Kitschy , amazing staff , delicious and inexpensive food. The omelets are huge.
The brunch wait can get insane but is worth it! Once you get in, have an old bay Bloody Mary and move on to bigger and better breakfasts .
The scramble eggs and pulled pork breakfast with cornbread was the best. Next time have to check out
The Orleans Fries are delish! Sweet potato fries with hot sauce , brown sugar , and sour cream . Sounds funky, but it's amazing!
Amazing brunch (all bread/toast is homemade ) and tremendous 50s decor... it's also worth noting this spot is 24 hours on the weekends. Careful, the coffee comes out scalding hot!
Friendly is in their name for a reason. Work that tip girlfriend. Love the retro & they play killer music . Seriously. Basic breakfast & solid food here.
The Anadama bread is amazing. Very interesting menu and kitschy decor is cool. Food and service were both excellent.
I had a milk shake (delicious) and a grilled cheese sandwich , and my boyfriend had a wrap ~ we both left full and happy. ????
Ole miss is worth getting once. Really interesting combo of flavor. The scklarmageddon is huge and pretty good. The highlight though, anadama bread !!!! Omg!!!!! My new favorite breakfast joint.
The Drunken French Toast and the Costa Rican are amazing for breakfast . I also enjoy their Rice & Beans (with added grilled chicken and chorizo ) for lunch !
Such good food! Vegan options available. Try the Orleans fries ! They are soooo good. (Especially cold the next day... trust me its yummy)
Ignore the hipster vibe and health violations (unless that's your thing), and enjoy some good cayenne cheddar bread with any dish. It literally goes with any dish.
Try the Babe Bene - Eggs Benedict over pulled pork and homemade cornbread , with house Carolina BBQ and home fries . Yum. (via @Foodspotting)
Get the nachos !! A heaping messy plate of delicious, chippy goodness. Also the basic breakfast is outstanding. As is everything else...You can't go wrong at the Toast .
Always great food - love the place. My wife had the tacos , and claimed they were the best she's ever eaten.
Huge menu and great service
The Irish Benedict was amazing as well as the Caribbean waffle .
Great atmosphere. Very friendly and attentive staff . Food and drinks were delicious.
Always ask for Geoff or Jackie! Tell them you are fixin' to eat some great food and be sure to drink a Bud Light Platinum ! Wicked!
The Mexican mashed potatoes were a combination of all of my favorite things. I could not stop eating!
Flipping love this place. Get the cheese fries with the strawberry habenaro dipping sauce , killer.
Everything is good! If the lobster quesadilla is on special, get it!
The Orleans fries were life changing. Sweet potato fries with brown sugar and tobasco . Must order.
Try the Cheesy Fries w/ Strawberry Habanero Dipping Sauce - So cheesy. And the sauce is superb. (via @Foodspotting)
Do not get a plain pancake or French toast , go for one of the special stuffed ones otherwise you'll experience unsweet dryness.
Amazing!!! These tots are off the chain!
Excellent eggs benny and French toast donuts with strawberry habanero jam !
Try the Mexican Mashed Meal - Chorizo , spicy mashed and cayenne cheddar bread . (via @Foodspotting)
Ole Miss is a killer sandwich . Bacon is 1/4" thick, mimosas are well balanced.
Bring an empty stomach and leave enough room for these fatty foods on the menu; very eccentric menu and hard to make a choice. It's like kids invented the menu items!
Best of NH 2016: Best Breakfast in Seacoast Region ???? (Readers' Poll Winner)
Everything is amazing, great food and drinks, very fresh
A must when visiting home. Try the veggie burger with cheese fries . ????????
Delicious omelets and coffee ! Funky decor!
Awesome little diner , great comfort food and great drinks.
Giant pancakes are delicious! The Caribbean Waffle with carmalized bananas keeps me coming back :)
Nachos , huevos rancheros , 3 French toast , & 2 banana and chocolate chip pancakes ...all good. There were 3 of us.
The Peasant was amazing! The King Cakes will easily feed 2-3 heavy eaters, so order wisely. It's delicious, though!
Its at to to wrong with any of the food...but the egg sandwich with homemade bread is awesome any time of the day.
Dr. Seuss would order the Green Eggs & Ham , and you should too!
Get a side of strawberry habanero sauce and dip everything in it. Its especially good on le petit monstre. Mmmmm.
Must try the Bloody Mary flights. Menu is huge and none of them disappoint.
The "ole miss " or "kiss my grits "...both delish!
Great food. Awesome atmosphere. Super accommodating. Our new favorite diner!! - Brooke Crane
Great burgers, chili, nachos, soups & salads, more. Good fresh food, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. Monday's special is $5 burgers and fries - awesome deal!. - Ann Cummings
this is the best Starbucks ever. I've been going here for 7 years and have never had anything less than a perfect drink. - Jared Lipton
Great beer variety- get an app or meal made with beer- fantastic taste. - Amy Schauster
A beautiful, peaceful, awesome place for a free (donation based) outdoor concert. Right next to the water and town. Seeing a show here is a MUST!! - Kira
