We had a great breakfast here. It’s small and can’t seat large groups, so plan accordingly. The food was really good and the service was nice once we were seated.

I’ve visited this spot twice now and both times it has been fantastic. This is my favorite breakfast spot. We stopped here one morning on the way to Michael’s bridge diner instead and were pleasantly surprised. It’s a cozy little diner with a nice low key atmosphere. Although there isn’t many tables, both times we were sat right away and the wait staff has always been attentive, efficient and friendly. The food is amazing! The first time I had a Popeye Benedict and I think it is, by far, the best Benedict I’ve tasted. My boyfriend had a benedict too and he was very pleased with it as well. This morning we came with a friend and I ordered an Athens scramble with feta, olives, tomatoes and spinach and it was so delicious. My boyfriend ordered a breakfast supreme with a Belgian waffle topped with country fried steak and gravy. I had a bite and it was also delicious. The food, service, and atmosphere is consistently great. I almost didn’t want to review this place because I feel like its a secret gem in West Boylston.

Stopped at this cute little place for brunch on Sunday, Nov. 29. Meal OK, but was disappointed when I asked, before placing my order, if they had maple syrup available — was told no, that they had«run out.» Hey, that should be a staple for a non-chain place that promotes special pancakes and French toast offerings. They should have backup containers of maple syrup in reserve. So I had a poached egg meal and it was OK, but not the experience for which I had hoped.

My husband, daughter, granddaughter and I just had breakfast at Country Kettle Café and they were very pleased. I, however, was not. I ordered the peach cobbler french toast. Why is it so many restaurants don’t know how to make french toast? While the bread was tasty, which saved this meal from being sent back to the kitchen, you could tell it got dipped in the egg-milk mixture for a nano-second before it got put on the grill. The inside was totally dry and as I write this, I regret not sending it back to the kitchen. The peaches were canned, which were okay but fresh peaches would have been much better. My husband and daughter, who got omelettes, reported that they were very good as well as the home fries and toast that accompanied them. It’s a small place with two waitresses. When we arrived, there were four empty tables but they quickly filled. Our waitress was okay but not very attentive. We’ll go back if we’re going by but I surely won’t order the french toast again.

Its a shame this gem is so close to home and I JUST discovered how yummy it is! For the sake of this review, I tasted my husbands food also. A sacrifice necessary to write an proper review. ;) I had one of the Benedicts. Poached, English, Hollandaise but with bacon and tomatoes. YUM!!! The corned beef hash was prob from a can but fried with a excellent crisp to it and much less salty than the usual canned stuff. Husbands home fries were good. I claimed the little crispy pieces. Some had more of the yummy onion flavor than others. The sausage tasted home made. Maybe not in house but if they came pre frozen, they fooled me! Its small. You will wait so be patient. Its worth it.

I am fairly new to town been to this place a couple of times and love the peach cobbler French toast. Today wasn’t too happy that I got there 15 minutes before 1pm and the ladies told me they were closed.

I would give this place less than one star but it wouldn’t let me post if I did so I gave them one star. First we were told we had to wait to be seated when there was only one table with people at it which left at least six tables open so we waited and waited until it became clear we would not be seated until the one and only table that was occupied was done with their food. My suggestion is to avoid this place

Classic little breakfast place near the reservoir. I had a «Country Breakfast» plate(Think«I’m a Fat ass and hungry») and get this… they had pancakes made with s’mores .what the F*!? This place is a little gem I highly recommend it. Friendly staff. Reasonably priced. Atmosphere-small town, Food was well prepared. I’m coming back ;)

Cute enough place burger was good potato salad was even better. Home-fries were served burnt and the puddle of grease sitting on my plate was less then appealing. The breakfast burrito was ok… No effort was made to impress here.

Very good diner food, and I’d like to really stress that the homefries, specials and the benedicts are all above average. I’ve had co-eaters tell me the burgers are good as well, although never had one myself. Its a great small town restaurant.

Doesn’t look like much as you drive up, and the«Live Bait» sign on the store next door isn’t much of a draw either, unless of course, you’re going fishing afterwords. The interior is small but much more inviting. Only about eight tables and a few seats at the counter. Breakfast here is your standard diner fare with quite a few specials. Our server was friendly but seemed to disappear at times. That’s what happens when there’s only one waitress and the place is full. The food was good, but not worth me driving out of my way for. I would consider stopping again if i was in the area.

I thought it was a solid breakfast run by good folk. I don’t know what else you could want, really.

Stopped here on our way to Boxborough. Lots of cool old Hollywood stuff on the walls, TCM on a big screen T.V., nice employees. Menu had vegetarian sausage on it, and my wife had«the best scrambled egg sandwich» she’s ever had. If I’m ever in town again, I would go back.

I’m with Lila. This place’s last owner’s really let it slide. Since then, it’s been redone completely. The inside itself is more welcoming and they run old movies on sunday mornings. The food is slightly better then average diner grub, with the homefries being spectacular. I am a big fan, and this is my normal sunday go to spot. Sitting at the counter with the paper just feels right.

This place gets 2 stars based souly on the homefries… The way a breakfast place in a small town SHOULDn’t BE dirty plates, utensils, and floor all the time. Small, cramped and packed with the post fishing crowd and crazy townies. The service is crazy bad most of the time with the occaisional smile. The bagels are frozen… need I say more?
