Hometown is my absolute favorite breakfast spot in town, and it's because of both the food and the people behind it. The owners are genuinely some of the kindest, hardest-working folks you'll ever meet, and they run this place with so much care. I've personally seen them handle incredibly busy mornings with patience and grace while taking care of many orders at once. What really stands out is how respectful and calm they remain, even when dealing with rude or impatient customers. That says a lot about who they are. The breakfast is always delicious, comforting, and worth the wait, and the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in. Hometown isn't just a restaurant; it's a place where heart, effort, and respect shine through in everything they do. If you want a great breakfast and want to support genuinely good people, this is the place. They deserve all the support and kindness they give out every day. read more

Formally known as "Toast" Hometown Cafe and Grill is an excellent place to go and eat a bagel, but it doesn't stop there. There is so much variety to choose from on the menu. Hometown is a warm welcoming place with very friendly employees who are always readu to serve and help.

Being a born and raised Jersey boy you can always appreciate an amazing pastami on rye. In the past few years the only place around that would do it well is in the city. Now I have my new indulge spot right around the corner. Perfect portions (for Pastrami that means at least 3-4 inches of meat) and amazing flavors. Had the Taylor ham breakfast sandwich as well that was bomb. 5 star deli! read more

There's no need to worry about street parking because they have a small parking lot up front. I stopped by on a late Sunday afternoon, craving a breakfast sandwich. Yes, I eat breakfast after 2pm... shoot me! The ambiance is a little more "elevated" than your usual deli. It's bright, clean, and modern with a good amount of seating. They also have wifi. I can see this also being a study/work spot during off-peak hours. They have a large variety of both breakfast and lunch options - bagels, pancakes, waffles, omelettes, burgers, salads, and savory sandwiches. Additionally, they also have tea, coffee, smoothies, and juices. What makes them stand out are their artisanal bagel flavors and gourmet cream cheese spreads. They have a lot of unique flavors, both sweet and savory. I ordered: *2 Eggs, Cheese and Meat Breakfast Sandwich ~$7 - I got mine with taylor ham and salt/pepper/ketchup on a toasted everything bagel. This was a satisfying and hearty meal! The bagel crust was crispy, while the interior was dense, fluffy, and chewy. The taylor ham was smoky and salty, which paired well with the creamy cheese and eggs. *Iced Coffee with milk & sugar ~$4 - The coffee was just okay. It was on the weaker side. A little too much milk. The service was friendly, welcoming, and quick. The employee let me sample a few of their cream cheeses. I also got to meet the chef, Miguel, who told me more about the business! I'll definitely be returning to try their artisanal bagels... I have my eyes on the french toast and parmesan ones!

It has two handles on the side, making it easier to use. It can be made of wood or plastic. Located across from the train station, we decided on a celebratory meal at this popular spot for brunch/lunch in Westwood. A reservation was made for a party of 7 via Yelp. Upon arrival inside this cozy interior featuring retro decorations filled with rolling pins from ages past with several tables, we were greeted by the staff and checked in at The Rolling Pin Cafe. We were directed next door to their annex building, where it was warm and homey but with more seating. We were once more greeted by the staff and managed to get a table by the window. Their menu contains classic comfort foods for breakfast and lunch with specials rotating weekly. My partner, our friends, and I decided on the Pin Platter, Chicken Salad Sandwich, NJ Sloppy Joe Sandwich, Pesto Turkey Sandwich, Chocolate Chip Pancakes with Strawberries, Avocado Toast Platter, and 1/2 Smoked Turkey Sandwich with Mac & Cheese. The sandwiches accompanied their house-made sweet potato salad. Everything continues to be made on-site, so it's remained fresh and has that genuine homemade taste with wonderful flavors, which is hard to find these days. Portions were generous, and the price was reasonable. The owner, Jeff, is such a nice guy who sent over some complimentary desserts to sample: lemon bars, cheesecakes, brownies, and apple cobbler with vanilla & chocolate ice cream. The server Johanna was friendly and accommodating. This place never disappoints...
