I've currently been sitting here for 10 minutes and still no one has come over to us. Besides this table, there are only 2 others occupied and a couple people at the bar. Last time we came, the service was even slower. The food is good, but DO NOT come here if you are on any kind of time hack. read more

I'll come here on rare occassion. Come to think of it, it has been a long time! It's about time I grab a car-style booth and order up some coffee! read more

Fantastic food, great wait staff. I really like this place a lot, my breakfast is always perfect and that's been ten years running.

Good food, good prices,great service....dinner ambiance at it's best......will definitely return....best breakfast spot I have found around Nashua NH.....open breakfast only....closes at 2 read more

Sometimes kitsch is cute. This place is cute. The servers banter with the patrons is also cute. For the first 3 times. Then it gets old. Honestly, if I ask for a fork, I don't need the whole song and dance and clever quips and yuk yuks. Just a fork will do. The food was not good. It just wasn't. There were only like 3 breakfast places to choose from in Nashua that we could see, and this one was packed, which we took as a good sign. It wasn't. read more

I'm not sure how this place is still in business, the food is horrible and service was slow!!

This cafe is a cute retro style cafe. It has the kind of decor you would expect to remind you of the 50s. The decor is fun and features a lot of turquoise and elvis. The prices are very reasonable. The food was good. The portions were quite large as well. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive and the food came out quite quickly. Overall This is a good diner with a 50s twist. read more

Full disclosure: I LOVE ELVIS. And not in an ironic hipster way--I love him. Been to Graceland twice, saw his toothbrush up close, have an Elvis thingamajig hanging from my car window, got the songs on the iPod, etc. So Norton's is my kinda place. The food is basic and unpretentious--and delicious. The coffee is decent and plentiful. The pancakes are fluffy, the homefries are delicious, and the omelets are full of meaty and/or vegetabley goodness. The prices are great, and the service is attentive. I like to sit in the Ford Fairlane booth, but I try not to pout when some kids (whom I'm sure don't even appreciate Elvis or the 50s--go back to your Bieber, little babies) are sitting there when I walk in. If we happen to enter the restaurant at the same time, though, all bets are off. read more

Decent food but dreadful service. No coffee refills in reasonable time even if you're at the counter, rude waitresses. Plenty of better options in the area. Give this a miss. read more

Decided to try this place out while waiting for the barber shop around the corner to die down, definitely not the best choice. Food was mediocre at best, eggs had a funny taste to them, sausage patties were burnt on one side and the corned beef hash tasted straight from a can. Certainly won't ever be coming here again. read more

Terrible breakfast! I ordered a simple bacon and cheese omelet and it was terrible! Way too much cheese and literally only one slice of bacon in the whole omelet! I will never return to this place! Nashua really needs a good clean place for breakfast! read more

Pretty good! Came here with family over the holidays. Everyone found something they liked and was happy with what they got. My Eggs were cooked well and the home fries were nicely seasoned. read more

Absolute horrific. I will never go back here again. I like the atmosphere and saw some good reviews but the service and the food was horrible. First of all, the 2 waitresses that were there were simply not paying attention at all and were too busy texting at the bar to pay attention to the people there. We ordered our coffees and that was brisk and so was the taking of the food order. The waitress, however dropped the food and left. She never refilled coffees (we spent the majority of the time with empty cups) and I have never had such horrible breakfast in my life. I ordered a build your own omelette with peppers, onions, broccoli, and cheddar cheese. There were about 2 tiny chucks of pepper and there were no onions. The broccoli was also ONLY STALKS!!!! The chef cut the green yummy tops off and threw STEMS into my omelette...... I have never even heard of that. Needless to say I did not finish it. Not to mention the home fries were practically raw potatoes and the toast was burnt and way over buttered. I will most definitely not be returning. read more

Great food with a 50's car culture vibe, on the side. Their corned beef hash is really...... corned beef, hash. read more

I admit that I only had a couple cups of coffee at the old fashioned soda fountain bar but I loved this spot. It's definitely a dive, but I loved the atmosphere. It was cold outside and I was waiting for someone to finish up their dentist appointment. The coffee was hot and good. The waitresses were friendly and funny. The lady next to me had the fried scallops and haddock, smelled awesome. Its nice to find a place like this with all the regulars of a hometown diner from yesteryear. Reminded me of the long gone Ferretti's and Lord's soda fountain that was on Hanover St. in Manchester. sigh. read more

We love this place for breakfast. Great casual place with lots of choices, great food and really reasonable prices for the portions. Service is typically quick and the servers are chatty and friendly and patient with kids. read more

Great food, friendly staff, wonderful atmosphere... I may just become a regular.

Great local place for breakfast! They make great omelets and serve your breakfast and coffee with a smile. We go there with our youngest who loves the pancakes and crispy bacon! read more

We have visited Norton's twice in the past two weeks, and both times have been very nice! The diner is a little cheesy with all the typical 50's decorations - pictures of Monroe, Elvis, classic car models, the booth that looks like the end of an old car... The old drive-in speakers are cute though, and the one at the car booth actually plays music every once in a while. The breakfast is good, though nothing too fancy. The homefries are very well seasoned but could use a little more crisp to them. The corned beef hash is good and has a nice crispiness, and the ham is very good. The eggs are cooked perfectly. I have also tried a panini for lunch. It was great! The ciabatta roll was very nice, there was lots of chicken, and the pepper jack cheese was a great addition. A little messy, but tastes great. Also, THE FRIES ARE AWESOME. The menu says they are hand cut, and if this is true I commend whomever makes them. They were so good I had a hard time keeping my dad from stealing them all. I even left a little napkin drawing of me loving these fries. OH MAN. So for a typical breakfast, good lunch, and very nice service, Norton's is worth a try! read more

This place is only ok. Service was fine but didn't feel the quality of the food was comparable to say the airport diner but it's ok especially if you car score a seat in the car booth read more

My favorite breakfast spot in Nashua. I've been here many times and I'm always satisfied with the food and the service. The prices are reasonable too. Be sure to check out this great downtown eatery. I recommend the Ford Fairlane. read more

The service was very good and so was the food. The place was clean. It is your average diner style eatery going for a 50's theme. They have their own parking lot which is a plus in downtown Nashua! read more

Great breakfast, friendly staff. Great atmosphere inside, jukebox, diner theme is cool. Typical diner fare, worth a visit. Not much surrounding parking though. read more

the GRAPENUT PUDDING IS TO DIE FOR !!!!!!!! the service is awesome and the food is excellent. we go weekly and plan to keep going. George is very accommodating for special requests. bring a friend... read more

1950's & '60's atmosphere. Clean. Street Only Parking which can be a problem. The staff is friendly and I personally love the bantering between the "regulars" and the staff. The food is good and moderately proportioned. If it's not cooked to your liking, send it back and they will happily do their best to cook it to your satisfaction. They know how to make a great old-fashioned "frappe", too. Best kept secret is their "Friday Seafood Specials". Some of the best fried clams and scallops I've had anywhere in New England. Good place to get an update on local politics too. read more

The 50's theme is fun. Seems to be a local favorite. Their onion rings are the best! I just moved here but I'm sure I will become a "regular" here very soon! read more

Took the family there recently and loved it! The service was very friendly and prices were quite reasonable. The food was fantastic, especially the choc chip pancakes for the kids and the best omelet I've ever had. Will be back often. read more

After our seating the waitress took our drink orders and promply came back with them and took our order. As we sat there five other customers came in sat down.They received their drinks and orders way ahead of us...after 30 min my friend and i got up we had had enough waiting so BAD place to eat...her boss just cost her a good tip..I can see 15 min but 30 min with no rush incredible.. we went to the Temple Street Diner and had a better meal and lower prices that Norton's.. read more

I had a terrible experience. First of all, the waitress was rude and served us in a manner that made us felt unwelcome and rushed. The food didn't even come and the check was thrown at us. I asked what kind of tea and juice they had when i was asked what I'd like to drink and i asked the waitress what kind of tea and orange juice they served. Instead of knowing the kind of tea or orange juice they served or turn around to check what kind of OJ they had in the fridge directly behind her, I had a smart remark about how i was making the waitress work hard for service at a diner i'm trying to have a nice meal for breakfast at. Secondly, a friend i had breakfast with asked for coffee and was asked if he'd like to know the kind of coffee he was being served in a fresh remark. In addition to this, we were asked if we were done with our ketchup and before we could reciprocate a response, the waitress took our ketchup to lend to another customer. Lastly, when the food was served, there was a strand of hair in it. I'm never coming back again. read more

I absolutely love this spot for breakfast. Not only is the staff amazing but the food is spot on - like grammas brunch. So good. Always bring family here on times they visit from out of state. If you like corned beef hash, theirs is a must have. Also, they make the most amazing omelets. Gah, all this talk makes me want to drive there right now. :) read more

The Nashua, New Hampshire, that I want to visit will provide me two things. The first, a colorful and vivacious mix of local characters. The second, slabs of bacon. At Norton's, we were greeted by a singing waitress wearing reindeer antlers. First requirement, check. It's a diner serving breakfast. Bacon requirement, check. The rest of this is just gravy. The raisin toast wasn't so much toast as it was sweet raisin cakes with just enough bread to hold it all together. Eggs, they were eggs, hard to screw that up. Home fries were solid, could have kept them under the heat for a minute more to crisp them up. Besides being as startled as a blind horse running the Preakness by the Santa statue that started moving halfway through breakfast, this place is top quality. Bring your cousins. read more

Norton's is the place I go when I don't feel like driving two towns over to my favorite diner. Norton's has great food and service - you never leave hungry, but they don't serve a ridiculously huge plate of food, either. Their prices are great, too. My only wish is that they'd serve lunch on Sundays, but maybe one day. They've already expanded their hours on one or two days because of how much Nashua loves them. read more

Everything was okay except for the cheap, microwaved bacon. Big disappointment.

Norton's Classic Cafe is an amazing little cafe!! The staff is always friendly and respectful. Their food is amazing and the prices are very affordable!! Norton's staff caters to their customers every request the best way they can. I am always there with my family and always have a fantastic experience!! read more

First, I want to say I would prefer to support locally owned businesses. This was my first visit to Norton's. As someone who only eats egg whites I have a real problem with establishments who give an up charge if you want egg whites instead of a whole egg. Their menu says they have a $1.00 up charge per egg for egg whites. Which I think is outrageous. I am already paying 1.35 per EGG. So that would be 2.35 per egg white. When I asked the waitress if I would indeed be charged 2.35 per egg she at first said yes; then said she would only up charge me for 1 of the 2 egg whites I ordered. Okay fine. When my order came it was yellow. I confirmed with her that they were egg beaters and not regular scrambled eggs. She said Yes. But did not respond to my comment that I was asking a because I had ordered egg whites which would be white not yellow! I was too hungry to send them back (egg beaters have salt added). My pancakes were low quality. Tasted like they were made with pancake mix from the grocery store. I don't cook and could have made better. Paid $8.65 for 2 eggbeaters, 3 plain pancakes. Sadly I can get 2 whole wheat pancakes, 2 egg whites and 2 turkey bacon from Denny's for $4.00. read more
