My parents were in town to visit. I couldn’t think of a better place to take them for lunch. Especially on a rainy day. The sandwiches were outstanding. My father loved the bacon on his BLT. My mother loved her egg salad. The fresh bread is everything. I couldn’t resist a slice of the Anadama. I nearly ignored my chili because the bread and butter is just that good.
amazing food at a reasonable price. anadama bread is awesome.
Such hearty delicious soup and sandwiches!! I think every bite came with commentary on how good the food is!! And fresh baked loaves of bread for a great price ✨ Thanks for rekindling the loaf & ladle!!

The food is exactly as remembered. It is known for the best beef chili, terrific soups, and wonderful bread. Specific items include the hearty and herb-forward chicken and rice soup, the German mushroom soup which is a broth-based delight, and the celebrated Anadama bread, available in thick slices or by the loaf. The menu also features a perfect BLT, excellent sweets like chocolate cake, and beloved molasses cookies.
The service is consistently friendly, down to earth, polite, and attentive, with staff that are helpful and great folks. The overall experience is wonderful and does not disappoint, making guests eager to return to try more.
