AMAZING! The food was great. We would recommend! Very clean building and fireplace was nice on a cold morning. We loved it! The servers were kind and the food came quickly. Also, great prices! The building was close to our house, right in the center of town!
The food portions have gone down drastically in the past few weeks. I was told someone got in trouble for giving out too much food. Wow cheap much?
I've eaten here more times than I can remember. It has always been fantastic. Well, except for the last three times. This place has gone downhill, drastically. I thought it was odd today when I walked right in and got a seat, on a Sunday. This place is usually inaccessible on Sunday. Anyway, I wanted a simple egg breakfast, but I see this California Benedict and I figure that sounds good. But it IS Christy's, home of the world's best pancakes, so I gotta order a raspberry peach. They are delicious. The food arrives, pancake looks great. I only got one because they are now $7.85 per. That's EACH. I don't care. They really are that good. And this one was. However, that Benedict thing was awful. Apparently the cook can't do "poached". I ate two bites. Couldn't do anymore. So I did something I never do, I complained. After that, I really just wanted to eat my pancake and leave. The waitress was really pushing me to order something to replace it. I got the feeling that they intended to charge me for an inedible dish. I figure, in for a dime.... May as well wreck this train right now. So I tell her, "I WILL NOT pay for that. If it's your intention to charge me, then yes, bring me something else." So I order something simple. Bacon and eggs. Which I'm clearly not going to eat, I'll be full by the time it arrives. When it gets here, I come to the realization that the cook doesn't do eggs. My over-easy eggs were the worse I've had. The bacon was good, about as good as bacon flavored tissue paper can be. I won't be back. What a shame. All those people that will have to listen to me trash this place at every convenient moment. And probably even inconvenient ones. And those other seven one-star ratings I'm going to give this place.
We were seated right away. Service was quick and efficient. We ordered eggs and regular pancakes. The pancake was really good! I would eat here again.
Amazing food, amazing prices and king sized portions!!! 10 out of 10!!!
Established place. Great portions, I usually take half my order home. Veteran staff. Lots of options.

Ordered the Greek omlet and was disappointed in the wetness of it. The greens should have been squeezed. I had water on my plate and inside the omlet. The flavor suffered from this.
The wait staff we had was somewhat abrupt and unpleasant. The follow-up from another for refills was much more pleasant.
There was a long wait. It is popular. I will give a second chance.

I am heartbroken. I’ve been coming to Westbrook Cristys since I was a little kid, and I always brought friends and family there. I don’t know what’s happened here but it’s a crime. Shorter hours, smaller menu, smaller portions, completely different staff, terrible service, terrible food, ridiculously over-priced, and worst of all the mugs are gone. Not only is the food measurably worse and completely unseasoned but both my eggs and sausage were basically raw and unedible. Corn beef was clearly old and chewy. They asked if we wanted the hashbrowns that come with the meal and then charged extra for them. 5$ for a shot glass worth of orange juice. A bill that would normally be $25 was $45. Waited 30 minutes to get out order taken and then another 30 for the inedible food. Waitress took way too long to do/bring anything. Im so sad, never coming back.

Don't come here if you want a small meal. Wow, we just rolled out of there. So full. The pancakes are huge, and so good. And the table just got plain pancakes. The 2-egg breakfast with ham, potatoes, and toast was gigantic. And tasty. I got the breakfast special of biscuits and gravy, that came with 2 eggs and potatoes. All of it was tasty. And my daughter got a vanilla shake, that I wish I had more room to eat some. Next time will get the Oreo pancakes!

We were staying at Water's edge resort. We were looking for a breakfast spot and found Cristy's. Kylie was our server. She suggested the corned beef hash. She was on point. It was delicious. We went back the following day for another breakfast run and it was Kylie serving us again. We had the BBLT and it was delicious. All the portions are generously huge. Kylie was very knowledgeable and professional. If we could give her 10 stars we would but we can only give 5! Thanks for your service Kylie!

I had high hopes for this restaurant considering the copious amount of positive reviews, but man was I wrong. Me and my fiancé stopped here for brunch while passing through town and figured we’d give it a shot. When we first walked in we were both hit with a foul smell, like was something rotting. We looked past it and headed to the front desk to get a table. The host was a short older lady with a TERRIBLE attitude. For a minute I thought the smell might have been coming off of her horrible aura. Whatever. She sat us at a table and we waited a few minutes for a server to greet us. The waitstaff were splendid, super kind people. Seems like there is something off with management. Food was so so, not great not terrible. It lacked a lot of flavor. Prices were expensive for the experience we got.
Conclusion: Save your money, go some place else. Your stomach (and nostrils) will thank you.
Besttttt pancakes around!!! Enough pancake options to make your head spin lol my favorite is peach raspberry! Also love their eggs toast and homefries breakfast with it. Super affordable food. Staff is always attentive and friendly
