Brunch Restaurants near Dedham, MA

“Where do I begin? My family had a GREAT experience celebrating a birthday at The Friendly Toast, Dedham. The service was excellent, first of all. Brendan, our server, was so attentive and caring -- as well as professional, making sure we had a great experience with attentive -- yet prompt, friendly service -- and particular kindness to the Birthday Girl, my sister.. Sabrina, who had just come on board, was also friendly, warm, and professional. The manager, John, also came around to check on whether the birthday celebration for our little party of four was going well.Wow!

As if that wasn't enough, along came the food. The french toast sticks stole the show! Light and soft -- yet crispy outside, these delicious treats were packed with sweet/ savory flavor. They were fun to eat -- dipped into not one, but various kinds of dipping sauce, including one with a tangy kick. If you like a kick or simply enjoy trying unexpected, yummy flavors, get the strawberry dipping sauce.

Another star of the show was the Sklarmageddon -- an egg breakfast that seemed to have everything in it. It was simply scrumptious, and although my Loaded Lox -- smoked salmon, Everything Bagel, lots of veggies -- was fresh, delicious, and healthy, I'm planning to get Sklarmaggedon next time we come.
As you can see, I was too busy devouring my own meal and eyeing the Birthday Girl's to pay much attention to the other two orders, which my other two family members loved, but was told that these were delicious, too.

The atmosphere of the restaurant was fun and festive, and the decor, lively...yet there was a calm that was nice enough to be able to hear each other and have good, fun conversations, inspired by the setting.. Because there was a full bar (we were thinking that if folks wanted to, they could have mimosas, though we didn't ), we were guessing that on weekends, the place must be bustling, likely an area favorite.

The Friendly Toast? A toast to The Friendly Toast!!We will be back, and I'm already planning my order. If you're in the area, looking for a delicious breakfast with great service and atmosphere, this place was 2 thumbs up -- tines four people, giving it an eight thumbs up: we all loved it.“

“We were visiting from the Midwest and stumbled across this wonderful restaurant. Amazing food blending delicious flavors! The chef/owner checked in with us multiple times. Hadn’t read her story until after we ate. So impressed and was happy to support her restaurant!“

“Delicious food and great ambiance! We will come back!“

“Walked in Saturday lunchtime, our party of two got in faster than they predicted, maybe within 10 minutes. Great food and service. Large parties were getting hour plus wait times, so beware.“

“Fabulous food, especially if you have a sweet tooth. Always have around 10 specials. They also have creative give aways/promotions a few times a year. The owner and staff are very friendly. Today Susan waited on me and she was quick and very nice.“

“Great food, great service, and great drinks! Best brunch I’ve ever had and it is located in a great location!“

“I have been coming here the last few years. Service is incredible and the quality of the meat is so much better then all the other breakfast places.

Owner greats you with a smile every time you come in and makes everyone feel welcome.

Try the irish breakfast! Only place around that has traditional irish meats“

“The French onion soup here is heavenly! The soup is really rich and tasty, loaded with onions, and covered with melted cheese on top. Honestly, one bowl is never enough.
You also have to try their Monte Cristo French Toast—French Toast stuffed with cream cheese, sweet smoked ham, and Swiss cheese, and served with strawberry syrup. It's totally to die for, and just as good as the soup! The portion is huge, but the price is super affordable, so you really get your money's worth.
Besides, the owner and staff are lovely. Super friendly with great positive energy. If you're in Boston, you gotta try Thornton's restaurant before you leave. It's a true Boston local spot that's been open for over 49 years, where locals eat. Seriously, if you don't try this place, you haven't really experienced Boston!“

“Started with a very attentive waitress and stayed at a very good experience throughout. The food was delicious. Husband had the hash and eggs. Best he’s had in a long time. The home fries are delicious. Not overly spiced like most places. Soup of the day was Chicken noodle. They gave each of us a sample to try. Again, delicious. If you haven’t been give it a try. You won’t be disappointed“

“Just started my day off in the best way…with a delicious London Fog tea and a yummy Grab & Go Breakfast Sandwich from my new favorite place, Heirloom in Weston! Picked up a cappuccino, a carrot cake scone, and some cupcakes to go! All the baked goods are made fresh and tasty. The owner, Nadia, could not be nicer and this place is worth the drive from wherever you live. Every time I go, I love whatever I have! Great atmosphere, and fantastic staff every time!“

“Experience is set from the start. Host wasn't friendly or helpful. She also tried to seat us at the chef's counter - not what we reserved and felt like they'd shoved way too many chairs in. But from then on everything was great. Friendly bartender, great food, nice wine list, great ambiance. I come back again and again.“
