    What a great little breakfast place. Plenty of specials and a great staff. I hade the corned beef hash which seemed home made. The home fries were stellar. The coffee was good and hot. And my toast came out warm and buttered. I will come back.

    Came here for breakfast and had a great experience. There is quite a line but boy is it worth the wait. I came here with a big group and our server was over quickly and attentive throughout our stay. Everything we ordered came out quickly and tasted delicious. The staff was super friendly and the place had some great charm. Next time I am on the cape, I will certainly be coming back. I highly recommend!

    This is such a cute place, so nostalgic of the 50's era. The mural on the wall, tables, and chairs made you feel like you were part of American Graffiti We went for breakfast before leaving the Cape. They had plenty of gf breakfast items along with ones that aren't gluten friendly. They ask if it's a preference or allergy. I had the stand bacon and eggs with gf toast. They did have french toast and pancakes that were gf. The waitresses were cheerful and friendly. We found this place by looking on Yelp. The proprietor at the place we stayed at also recommended it. We definitely enjoyed the ambiance, friendly service, and yummy breakfast items

    In 2017, Betsy's Diner was listed as one of the top 15 diners in New England, by Yankee Magazine. When I googled that article this morning, it was no longer on an updated list from August 2nd, 2021. And the other 14 diners from the original list still made the cut. What happened???? Apparently, from speaking with several of the locals, ownership changed hands in 2019. The menu changed, prices went up.... I was in the area b4 knowing of the ownership change and decided to try it. The signage, ambience, and nostalgia still beckons. There was a brief wait on an off-season Saturday morning. Place was crowded. I ordered a make your own 3-egg omelet with ham and brocolli. Came w home fries and toast. I was underwhelmed. The eggs were way overcooked to the point of being crispy. The broccoli was not cooked at all. The home fries were nothing special....not spiced at all. And the coffee, unfathomably, was not very hot. Price for the omelet was $11.45. Bill came to over $15, so the coffee must've been $2.99. Note that it's not listed on the menu. All-in-all, pricey and not high quality. In fairness, my seating neighbors had pancakes and they looked good. Also, Kathleen, was GREAT. Constantly on the move, pleasant, efficient, etc. I can see why Betsy's was the only diner replaced from the original 2017 list. Great on nostalgia, but...... and the corned beef hash is not homemade.

    CLEAN syrup dispenser!  Unheard of at a diner!  Great job Betsy's!

    Totally impressed. Came on Tuesday morning at 8am and the two waitresses (blonde and brunette) were efficient, tidy and attentive. It did not feel grungy like our diner at home - windowsills, the drink areas and behind the counter just looked like they had been cared for and kept up. Breakfast food was great. The egg portions was huge and the home fries were crispy and homemade. Guess what? They had real maple syrup upon request!

    YUM. I loves me a good breakfast. This little diner serves up a breakfast that satisfies those morning hunger pangs. I ordered the classic breakfast of fluffy pancakes, savory sausage links, eggs over easy and real home fries - not those stringy things - I'm talking real chunks of potatoes. The pancakes were light and fluffy. The sausage was juicy and perfectly cooked and the eggs were perfectly cooked. I wonder if the corned beef hash is home made? We will definitely return.

    This diner reminds me of Happy Days waiting for Ritchie Cunningham and his friends to walk in. I just wanted a coffee and something sweet for a snack. Coffee is bottomless and delicious. My blueberry muffin was grilled with butter, yummy. The restaurant was bustling and the servers always had a smile and made sure you were ok. The decor is fun with sock hopping music. I recommend Betsy Diner, come on in and enjoy sitting at the counter or at a table.

    Stayed in Cape Cod couple of weeks ago and this great place was within walking distance from our hotel. Diner has a cozy atmosphere and a classic menu of comfort breakfast and lunch food. The friendly staff and delicious pancakes, toasts and eggs make it a must-visit spot for anyone in the area. My eggs Benny was just WOW!

Our server was pleasant enough and the small restaurant was cute. Bar, hightop, booth and table seating are available. I ordered the fish and chips while my wife ordered the fish tacos with sweet potato fries. The fish tacos were very good but had too much cilantro but the taste was very fresh. My fish and chips was excellent. The fish was cooked perfectly, flaky and still glistening. The batter was crispy and was thicker than tempura but thinner than beer batter. The only issue was a fairly small portion size. My wife had the same amount of fish on her tacos. We did have dessert, which was unusual for us. My pecan pie was extremely well done and had a wonderful flavor. Only way to make it better would be to serve it cold, not room temperature...but that's just personal preference. My wife got the tapioca pudding, which was a little less successfully prepared. The texture wasn't bad, it was served cold but had to option to be heated and the serving size was good. It just didn'tdidnt have much flavor...tasted more like a custard, but it was even bland for that. Over all? Very positive experience and we will be back

The home made chicken broth as a base to the linguica, bean, and kale totally makes it. We split a Rueben and it was one of the best in our long lives. Bread was toasted and the interior was broiled. Yes, I know some grill it, but it was nice not to have to have the exterior too oily. Like the soup, the balance between the ingredients were really considerate and perfect. The sauerkraut was fresh and crunchy. When we ate the pickle, we looked at each other because it was so fresh tasting, not overly vinegary or salty, a really pleasant cucumber experience. We took home a creamy lemon cheesecake type square, and again, balanced is the word. Not cloyingly sweet, but light and such a pleasure to eat. This really was a find off the beaten path. If for not staying at the Autocamp down the road, I would have never discovered it, even with the Diners, Drive-ins and Dives connection. By the way, Art (husband and co-owner) was a pleasure to nerd out with about all of the ingredients and techniques.

    Rare 5 Star Review: Phenomenal products and pleasant staff…read more Stepping into Maison Villatte in Falmouth is like being instantly transported to the heart of Paris. The aroma of freshly baked dough and caramelized sugar fills the air, drawing you toward immaculate display cases filled with a stunning variety of treats. Every single item is a testament to authentic French baking technique, featuring perfectly laminated, buttery croissants that shatter with crispness, vibrant fruit tarts with flawlessly structured crusts, and dense, velvety eclairs. Whether you are grabbing a crusty, artisanal baguette or indulging in a luxurious mille-feuille, the exceptional quality of the imported ingredients and the meticulous craftsmanship shine through in every single bite. Beyond the extraordinary pastries and savory savories, the atmosphere makes this boulangerie an absolute destination. Even when the lines stretch long on busy summer weekends, the energetic, smartly aproned staff handle the rush with incredible warmth and effortless professionalism. The rustic, charming interior combined with the view of bakers working hard at the ovens in the back adds a comforting, lively energy to the entire experience. It is easily the finest bakery on Cape Cod, and an absolute must-visit neighborhood treasure that will leave you eager to return the very next morning. What a find! Thanks

    This little French bakery in Falmouth MA was new to us on our last trip a couple of years ago. I…read morehave no idea how long it has existed but certainly not back when we lived nearby. We returned this visit on a very hot day and with very busy downtown, so parking close was a must. Sadly, there was hardly any parking at all so "nearby" became only a wish. It was quite a hike to this shop. But it was worth it. We had already eaten lunch and our goal was a French pastry each for dessert and the option to sit inside in the cooled room to eat. We found 2 seats at the nearby eating counter and enjoyed the sweet snack. The line was exceptionally long so it did take a while to get our treat. You need to browse the case as you wait in line and be ready to order as you reach the front of the line, which luckily parallels the case, affording a decent view. The staff member, who has rotated back to the front of the staff line, will pull what you want from the case, bag or box it as appropriate to the pastry, run it to the cashier and then return back into the staff line. When you see the staff member do that, turn yourself around and head to the cashier line and pay. Then find a place to eat. If it is completely full inside, there are benches outside, across the street on the library lawn. We have done that in the past. Be sure you get your drinks from the cashier because getting back in line to order them later is counterproductive to having a nice time. This time I ordered a berry custard tart and my husband ordered the pear caramel custard tart. The crust was beautifully made, as always, all classic French flavors filling them. There are breads and pastries of all kinds from croissants to eclairs. Most people order a lot and take out in a box for entertaining or a group waiting for them somewhere else. Honestly, when it's this good and this beautiful, and this crowded, I never even looked at the prices. It was worth whatever it was.
