    The French Toast
    Lindsey D.

    Stopped here for a quick breakfast on our way to Logan airport. You order at the counter and take a seat and they bring you your food. Staff was super kind and service was fast. The iced coffee was very good - I got mine with cream and mocha and my partner got his black we both enjoyed very much. Food portions were generous and tasted good! I enjoyed my chocolate chip pancake and my friend liked the french toast with fresh strawberries. Partner got a croissant from the pastry display case he liked too. Interior is cute and clean. When you're done eating you just bring your plates to a bin. Thanks for having us!

    Legend Breakfast, sausage and wheat toast! So so so good!

    My husband and I were traveling through Acton on our way to Boston and to Portland, ME. While staying in Boxborough, we searched for breakfast places and decided to give this place a try. So glad we did. We are extremely happy with everything. The food is beyond delicious, and the service is also so amazing! They made us feel so welcome. Food comes out at a decent time - not too fast and not long. So worth it! The first time we each got the Legend breakfast (3 eggs), and the second day we got the Light Legend breakfast (2 eggs). I got mine with scrambled eggs, sausage, home fries and whole wheat toast. My husband got the same but with bacon. We also got coffee and an orange juice (Tropicana in a bottle). Free refills for coffee - can get it in a mug and/or in a to-go cup. They had various selections for coffee - decaf, French Roast, Colombian, Pumpkin Spice, and another which I can't remember. My favorite was the Colombian. We didn't order them because our food was pretty hefty, but others in there ordered the colossal buttermilk pancakes (3), and they seemed to be enjoying them. They looked good too. You can get plain or add fruit and stuff to them (i.e. blueberry, strawberry, banana, chocolate chips). I also noticed a lot of locals here. And a lot of people would come in for their baked goods. They also serve lunch. Order at the counter and then take a seat. They will bring your food to your table. And when you're finished, just take your tray and plates etc to the disposal bins. If you're in the area or surrounding areas, this is the place you need to go to. Thank you, Legend Cafe, for existing!

    Is this place dog friendly?

    Ronald, there is an outdoor patio dining area which I'm sure would be welcome for you and your four legged friend. Not sure the policy for inside

    Healthy, fresh, filling, and they make a killer margarita! What else can you ask for…read more They do what they do exceptionally well. They only serve breakfast and lunch, and they close early (2 pm weekdays). The staff, from the hostess to the servers, were all very friendly. Nice to see smiles again in a restaurant! I loved the maple margarita. Perfect balance of sweet and salty. The food came out hot and nicely plated. Do not miss the smashed potatoes, the veggie hash, and the freshly squeezed juices. All are delicious. My omelette was jam packed with all kinds of veggies. The only negative is that it is very loud inside and can be hard to hear your own conversation. If I lived close by, I would be a regular.

I've been here for both of my sisters' graduation brunches, and we always leave happy. It's become one of our favorite spots for a celebratory brunch. For drinks, I tried their new Vanilla Bean Matcha Latte with oat milk. It was a bit thicker than I expected--possibly because of the oat milk. I can definitely see some people loving that texture, but for me it was just okay. That said, it was still a good drink, and the hint of vanilla came through nicely without overpowering the matcha. For food, we ordered a variety of dishes for the table. 1. The chicken and waffles had so much flavor, and the poached eggs were cooked perfectly--not too runny, but still soft, gooey, and delicious. The chicken was a little soggy, but it made up for it by being incredibly tender. 2. The blueberry pancake was fantastic. Their pancake portions are huge, so this time we only ordered one to share. It was delicious, though definitely on the heavier side. 3. The house burger was easily the standout dish of the meal and might be my favorite item on the menu. It's simple and classic, but packed with flavor. 4. The chicken burger, on the other hand, was disappointing. The chicken was quite dry, and I probably wouldn't order it again. I think something like pickled onions or another acidic topping could help bring some balance and moisture to the sandwich. 5. We also tried the omelet, which was very good, especially with the goat cheese. What really made the experience special was that the staff noticed we were celebrating a graduation and surprised us with complimentary donuts. It was such a thoughtful gesture and a lovely way to end the meal.

    I've eaten here a few times now, twice for dinner and three times for brunch. I'm compelled to…read morewrite a review because last night dinner at Fourth and Field with our toddler was a spectacular dinner night for two parents who don't get out much because of having a toddler. It wasn't quite a date night, but we thought the planes might entertain him enough that we could sit and enjoy our meals and it worked out perfectly. We got a reservation for a window seat, or son had a great view of the planes and was mesmerized by them taking off, landing, flying, fueling, which allowed us to enjoy our meals and drinks. When you're a parent who doesn't get out much, you want it to be worth your while and worth the money, be better than you could just cook up at home and the food was excellent and worth it. We had the crab cakes, Caesar salad, steak tips and the salmon with perfectly crisp skin. We were able to both take half of our entrees home and I just enjoyed it again for lunch today. In dining here multiple times, the food has consistently been excellent. I have experienced the slow service others complain about, which could've been tough with a toddler, but last night everything was prompt and on time and wait staff was attentive, so maybe something has changed? We will definitely be back to do this again.

    No thank you. First,…read morecredit where it's due: whoever is in the kitchen deserves a raise. The food is genuinely good. The owners, meanwhile, had apparently decided their role for the evening was less "run the restaurant" and more "be its most important customers." They were comfortably seated and dining when we arrived. They remained comfortably seated and dining while our server repeatedly stopped tending to the handful of actual customers to see what they needed. And they were STILL comfortably seated enjoying themselves when we finally left -- eons later than we should have because the service was painfully slow. Honestly, congratulations to them. By all appearances, they had a lovely dining experience. It takes a special kind of talent to understaff your own restaurant while somehow overstaffing your own table. We've been here multiple times, and every single visit has had the same problem: food comes out at random intervals, something is missing, someone is forgotten. At this point, consistency is their thing -- just unfortunately not the kind you want. This visit, our server genuinely seemed to be trying (so yes we did tip her appropriately despite the terrible overall experience), but she'd been put in the ridiculous position of serving paying customers while simultaneously waiting on her bosses and their family. There were only a handful of occupied tables, yet after serving one, she'd seemingly report back to the owners to see what they needed next. Meanwhile, their kids were running circles around our table the entire time. I have a kid. I run a business. I'm all for enjoying your own establishment. But if your family dinner requires so much attention that the paying customers become supporting characters, perhaps DoorDash? Then came the David Blaine portion of the evening. Seven people. Drinks? No pen. Dinner orders? Still no pen. Just raw confidence. A beer disappeared entirely. Dirty wine glasses arrived. Then everyone's dinner came except mine. Eventually, the grand finale appeared: I had ordered an appetizer AND a dinner. What arrived was the two combined. Ta-da! Two meals become one. Normally, I'd laugh it off. But this wasn't a one-off - we've had timing and missing-food issues basically every time we've eaten here. Which is a shame because, again, the food is really good. The kitchen deserves better. The servers deserve better. The customers deserve better. The owners? I'd mostly like to nominate them for an episode of Kitchen Nightmares and watch Gordon Ramsay explain the concept of "paying customers" at his preferred volume of profanity. We've also heard the owners aren't particularly receptive to criticism, so we're fully expecting a defensive response rather than any acknowledgment that perhaps - just perhaps - the recurring problems might have something to do with the people running the place. Cheers! (Just not to this place)

That said, the staff is very efficient and does an excellent job of getting people in and out without making the customers feel rushed (not always an easy thing to do in my opinion!). Don't be deterred by the line because it moves quickly and it is absolutely worth the wait. Eli's is a real hidden gem and great neighborhood spot for locals and those traveling from out of town. The food is DELICIOUS and the portions are huge. Food is fresh and made to order yet still comes out quickly! Staff are very attentive. Our recent orders have included the Truffle Shuffle Omelet, No Name Omelet, Porky Pig Omelet, Hot Mama Omelet and the Island Breakfast. All were incredible. The house made pico is super fresh. We usually ask for the sour cream on the side as opposed to on top of the omelet. My parents said the coffee was really good. Great array of hot sauces to choose from as well. Next time I need to remember to order my hash browns extra crispy (they are good as is but extra crispy is just a personal preference!). There is a great mix of people in the restaurant every time we go. People from all over and from all walks of life (families, elderly patrons, young couples, etc.).

Chris & Meredith, the new owners had big ideas. They excitedly mentioned some of the changes that they'd planned, including the new seating arrangements. Could that possibly work for our often crowded daily morning group? We weren't sure. But Chris has been accommodating and solicitous, and assured us that he'd make it work for us ~~ And he has. In addition, new yummy food offerings are now available; bagels & lox, avocado toast, yogurt parfaits, and overnight oats. (My husband's favorite) As before, the barristas are friendly, competent, and cheerful. The only change that disappoints me (and this is minor), is the placement of the baked goods. I used to derive great pleasure in watching the young children walk up to the pastry window at their eye level, as they would choose their favorite treat. Yes, change is hard, but the new owners have succeeded in continuing to make Acton Coffee the welcoming place we want to be every morning we're in town.
