i don’t usually leave reviews but this place really pushed it. I went with my family to eat breakfast for easter and the food was awful. It started off when we saw another waitress pour someones old coffee mug that they didn’t finish back into the kettle after we saw that we stopped drinking the coffee and immediately put our cups to the side, we were going to leave but our food was already on the way out. We had a small child with us, 2 years of age and they brought her food out LAST (she had a kids meal) to follow that the omelette we ordered was burnt and overall questionable by the look and taste of it so we returned it and kindly explained and overall just decided not to get another meal considering the issues we already experienced. when the bill comes the charge for the omelette was there so we asked politely to have it taken off, to our surprise there was a lot of push back and questions from the manager instead of a simple apology, she was very rude to ALL of us at the table and seemed to think we just didn’t want to pay and to top everything off the photo below is a pancake I took home to go, I started to eat it and found not one but several egg shells in this pancake making it unsafe to eat. Disappointed and disgusted to say the least, I will not be going back.

Nice place

Very friendly and attentive staff; warm, quiet environment; and food with the kind of nostalgic flavor that makes you feel like you never even stepped out of your home. :)

I thought I posted a review about this delicious diner the other day located in Lowell, barely 2 minutes from 495 worth the drive. We happen to be in the area in Chelmsford and I asked my Google what was the top five diners in the area and corner cafe came up as one of them. I read some of the reviews and people were saying how delicious of breakfast was. So I told my husband let's go here. He created his own element of bacon and cheese and I had the country omelette which was sausage and cheese with a sausage gravy on top. It was delicious and you don't have to ask for extra gravy but this morning I think it was just a little heavy-handed on the sage but I still enjoyed it and my husband used a lot of the gravy actually to dip his home fries in. You have to come here hungry because the serving size is a huge. The eggs were good. The home fries would delicious and the waitress was phenomenal. A younger woman who made our time very pleasant. Thank you corner cafe. I'm glad people put good posts out for you so we could come and meet you this day and we will return. Thank you!.

Service was always very good but has not been the last 3 times. I was just 1 of 2 in dining room and was served AFTER a party of 8 came 15 minutes after I ordered. Never ask about coffee while I waited with a crying child but no get the 8 top served 1st. Wont be coming back. Rather go to fitzys where Service matters I

Service was awful and very disorganized, and the wait staff showed their frustration, and the younger female working there moved with zero motivation.

Thanks to other Google reviewers that posted about this location, we were visiting down in Chelmsford and I asked for the top five diners in that particular area and it shows the corner cafe which was actually on the way we were going to get back home. Boy am I happy we went. I had the country omelette which was sausage and onion with a sausage gravy, and usually I had to ask for extra gravy here. I did not. They did not disappoint. It was good but I think they had a little sage in it. My husband enjoyed the gravy lol and sourdough bread that I swear they must have made it homemade. It was cut like it was Italian bread but it was sourdough delicious. Nice thick cut and my husband had a bacon and chedda omelette with the home fries. They were delicious and our server. What a sweetheart. It was quiet and then they got a little busy period and she handled it with Grace. What a nice place. I personally if you're in the area. I didn't know there was parking across the street and an empty parking lot. We parked on the side of the road but park in the parking spot directly across from the restaurant ? and you will have a good hearty breakfast without breaking the bank. Thank you so much corner cafe. What a great morning we had because of you, especially your server. Thank you!

Was there for breakfast this morning. Waited a short time for a table. All good. Ordered our two breakfast's @10:20am. By 11:10 I asked waitress (who btw should never be a waitress!! So bad!!) and asked the cooks. Never came back to tell us. So I waited a few moments and I asked her. She said ooh they never got your order. Not a sorry nothing. And the owners saw us leave. Don't go there!!!!!!! Bad service all around!!!

Meh. I didn't give it 2 stars because our waitress was very polite. My toast was so cold that the the butter they had put on it didn't melt, they forgot to put cheese in my omelet, and they forgot our side of eggs. Coffee was good.? "forgettable"

Cozy little breakfast nook. Very good food and service. I got the blta Benedict. Everything was very fresh. Husband got the country skillet. Both were good. Recommend if you're in the area for a quick breakfast. Parking is right across the street.

The food was ok (we had the country skillet and strawberry, banana, and Nutella French toast) and the service was ok as well. My daughters had the hot chocolate, they did enjoy that.

I was there on October 25, 2023 I was very disappointed. My omelette was paper thin and didn't have much taste, considering there were peppers, onions and cheese in it. The home fries I had Seem to be a day, old and reheated. I had trouble even putting my fork in them to pick them up. They were very rubbery. to me it was a waste of $20. I won't be visiting them again anytime soon.

So why a one-star, food okay, service good, crowded but it was a Sunday morning, the problem started right after I left -- BUGS!Not bugs in the food but in the booth I sat at. BED BUGS to be exact! I stayed in a hostel years ago that was infested with them. They have a very distinct bite pattern it's literally called breakfast, lunch and dinner- three usually in a row. I took a nap when we got home and woke up with 4 bites areas. I have a more pronounced allergic reaction than most and spent the last week washing sheets, clothing and vacuuming my bedroom and couch just out of shear paranoia. I called and spoke with the manager just to let them know, maybe the person before me had them and shedded them. Either way she didn't seem to get the potential seriousness, telling me her people clean the booths between customers. Wiping down the seat with a cloth won't cut it. Goodluck, I will never be returning!
