Leggos : Holbrook, MA 80/351

Truly dreadful. I feel sorry for anyone who thinks this slop qualifies as Food.
_________

I had the Leggo Benedict (eggs Bene w/ham) and a side order of 1 French toast. Problem #1. Mass produced/previously frozen homefries...YUCK! #2. English muffin was barely, if that, cooked/toasted/grilled. #3. They actually put the eggs bene on TOP of a very thin slice of ham (Oscar Myer deli meat??)....Bizarre! #4. Even the French toast had a funny taste (sorry, I'm not good at describing flavors)...Horrible is a good enough descriptor for me.

Do not eat breakfast here or you're literally pissing your $$ away

Cowbells Cafe : Whitman, MA 79/351

Cute little place. Tasty coffee. Above average homestyle cornbeef hash. Asked for a single French toast, it was very yummy. This place has a small menu. There wasn't an eggs Bene.

One drawback (for me anyway)...they have hashbrowns Vs. homefries. Y'all know I prefer fresh diced red bliss potatoes.

Also, the bathroom is very poorly accessible, bad, especially if you have kids in tow.

Almost tempted to say, "Nay." But, the cornbeef hash & French toast saved the day.

"Yay!"

Sippican Cafe   Marion, MA: 78/351

Small town, nice place with a patio & open kitchen...lots of potential. Unfortunately they do not know how to do breakfast. Had eggs Florentine: I liked the ingredients, spinach, mushroom, tomatoes. However, the Hollandaise sauce was dull.

And it truly Failed at homefries....yuck!! Preprocessed crap.

"Nay!!"..... what a shame. This place could be fab, if they found themselves a great Chef.

Toast ...Hull, MA: 77/351

I tentatively give it a "Yay". Coffee was decent & the cinnamon French toast was pretty good. NOT as good as my all-time fav. I was disappointed in the brown potatoes in the homefries. I should have been more assertive and requested 1/2 cinnamon FT and 1/2 Creme Brulee FT....that way I could have tasted both and it would have been a good test on customer service.

It's not a "drive out of the way" type worthiness. But, I'll probably go back to try that CBFT.

 The Breakfast Nook, Wareham, MA: doesn't count toward my town/city total.

This is for my co-worker, Robbie, he wants more updates.

Well, Robbie....this place is a "Nay!".

They're certainly very friendly here, but, the food is not worthy. I had regular eggs Bene w/homefries. The Hollandaise sauce was bland and the homefries were very dry, brown potatoes. Yuck.

Don't worry Rob...I'll let ya know when I find something good.

Hole in One, Orleans, MA: 76/351...there was a lot of positive reviews and a huge crowd at the door, so, I expected a treat. Nope. Started with a crabby waitress, I commented, "Crowd is nothing new! right? You've been doing this a while?"....she replied, "Yeah, 30 yrs"....OK then lady...no excuse for your attitude.

A got the garden eggs Benedict...spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms. Tomatoes were light pink, far from bright red & fresh, the mushrooms seemed like the type you pour out of a can. Lame!

Homefries are dreadful...mass produced, school cafeteria quality. Yuck. I tried the "homemade" corn beef hash..I doubt it! Very dry.

Seems a lot of people rave about the donuts....certainly hope they're better than breakfast.

"Nay!"

Vacation breakfasts: Barbados 7/3-7/6 2014

Bean n' Bagel: 1st try during my trip. Was recommended by a few locals. I thought the food was lame and fairly lousy. Seemed pre-made or "frozen" style. Not the friendliest server.

"Nay!"


Relish: 2nd try. Much better. Crisp, fresh, quality. I had an omelet (my mistake for not customizing it)...came plain, but, was fluffy & moist. With a side of Lox on a small bed of salad greens. I understand prices seem a little high, eg: $19 U.S. and coffee $6 U.S., but, IMO...if you're on vacation here, I really don't think people are counting pennies.

"Yay!"

Flindt's: Nice. Outdoor patio (street side, not beach side....still nice). I had crepes and scrambled eggs. Nicely plated. With strawberry jam & thick syrup. Eggs fluffy and moist. Tasty coffee.

Beautiful surprise...it was Sunday morning and I began to hear singing....turns out there's a old stone church across the way and the choir was performing. Wonderful!

"Big yay!"
