The staff is beyond caring. Drove up from NY. It had been awhile since I had seen my parents because I had broken both my elbows and ulnas and couldn’t move for many months. Took my mom and dad here for lunch per my mom’s request as she said it’s really her favorite. The staff quickly ran to clean off tables that people had just left. They were so understanding about my mom and dad’s walkers. They were incredible with all our different food requests and changes. Extremely patient with our complex order. They described the beer tastes and varieties for my partner. My mom is in the Cedar nursing home and she doesn’t get out much. So what they did next to make this special occasion even more special brought me to tears. My mom asked us for a popover with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup. It wasn’t on the menu. They made it and brought it over to my mom. The joy on my mom’s face I will cherish forever. I can’t thank you all for creating such a special afternoon for our family. It meant the world. Big hugs!

Excellent experience overall. The staff was nice and attentive and the food was tasty. The popovers with maple butter are fantastic. The atmosphere is more upscale than I remember, but inviting to all.

I came here with my husband for a late Saturday lunch. The line was pretty short when we arrived, so it didn’t take long to get our orders placed. There’s a variety of seating options for dining in. The wait was maybe 10-15 minutes for our food. I ordered the BLT, which was delicious - I loved that they include garlic aioli. The bacon was done perfect too, and the whole sandwich is a generous size. My only complaints about our experience were that our table had crumbs left from the last guests, and the women’s restroom was out of order. It was also a little loud at first, but quieted down after the lunch rush passed.

Food is delicious, love the baked goods! Dining area can be really crowded and hard to move through. We also picked up a cake tasting to go that we had ordered through the website, and we loved that. It made the process so much less stressful and low pressure!

Just ok. Nothing special. If you can't get into Elephantine, this might be a distant second choice. Friendly people.

The loaded popover is delicious. My husband had a regular one, I had one that was gluten free. I just wish the potatoes inside were seasoned. Kinda pricey, but worth it to try it.Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free options which are great

Discovered this place during a day trip to Portsmouth and it is my new favorite lunch spot! I have Celiac and there were so many safe options for me. The ham and cheese quiche with clam chowder really hit the spot on a cold snowy day. The service was really fantastic as well and made me feel very cared for!Dietary restrictions: Great for people with Celiac Disease or gluten intolerance.

I'm sorry to give this place a low review. Used to love it, prices have soared and quality has taken a huge dive. Tried it again after a disappointing experience a few months ago. Nope, same. Both my husband and I had soup, literally like warm, although the tomato bisque had good flavor. My husbands clam chowder was bland, too full of potatoes and gritty clams. His tuna was dry and tasteless. I had veggie quiche which had seen better days a week ago. Don't expect sides, it wasn't even offered!

A good spot for breakfast, brunch or just a cup of coffee with pastries. Ordered Raman and burger, both came out tasty. I still had room for dessert afterwards. They have good pastry selection and I wasn’t disappointed. Reasonable price.

We love this place. The prices aren't cheap, but the food is definitely worth it. The popovers strap the show. Make sure to get the maple butter. We drive all the way from Jersey at least once a year just for this place.
