Maybe it's different if you're white, but I got a lot of stinky side eyes from the old people in there. The food was a small-ish portion of poorly made diner food but at downtown steakhouse prices. So, my odds of going back were essentially zero, anyway. The service was pretty standard. I asked for food, they brought it. I was basically ignored after that, but I was able to flag down someone when I needed a water refill easily enough. Overall, I'd definitely skip this place. read more

This food was absolutely delicious! I have never had a grilled muffin and this place knows how to grill it. So good! Bacon was nice and crispy but not burnt and the home fries were seasoned and yummy. The waitress was new which is ok. She was sweet but I wished she smiled more. The place itself was nice. There was merchandise everywhere and it definitely felt like a perfect diner. I would completely go here again!!! read more

ML Shaws Country Kitchen - Chocolate chip muffin, grilled with butter. Home fries, bacon - American Near Me - Dracut, Massachusetts

Was very disappointed ordered an omelette actually ordered two omelettes one was the correct way nice and bright and yellow. The other one it looked like Sunnyside eggs up, folded to look like a omelette waitress never checked with us to see if we wanted coffee. She actually sat next to a table talking to the other patrons for about 15 minutes and actually sat down very disappointed. Don't see me again. read more

This is a fairly large operation and it's run by Shaws Farms. The food is good and the restaurant is always busy for breakfast so get there early. The location is easy to get in and out of and try any of the Egg platters or the Pancakes!! read more

First visit Sunday 10:30, 25 min wait to be seated. Broad menu, everything ordered was good (eggs 2 ways, omelette, pancakes) Server was very friendly, prices are reasonable. We'll be back! read more

I decided to finally come in and sit down after ordering take-out from here for the last 2 yrs. Instantly glad I did! Warm and welcoming when you first walk into their little mini store. Cute kitchen trinkets everywhere! They also have snack and desserts for sale which I did not know. The waitress was awesome and breakfast was even better dining in. I'm definitely coming in here more often from now on. read more

This place is so cute. It's like the hangout spot for all the senior citizens in town lol Everyone was pleasant I enjoyed the visit. read more

Good food. Waitress was shit and extremely rude. I would not reccomened I've gotten better service at McDonald's by workers on edibles.

Food was fine but the service was unexpectedly rude. My in laws were treated with no respect because of a language barrier. Our party was ignored, treated different, and we could hear and see other staff members talking about us. After confronting the hostess about his behavior, he no longer helped our table and had the manager take over. Very disappointing visit, we will not be repeat customers! read more

We got here around 10am and there was already a line out the door. After chatting with the locals in line, we were eager to get seated in this popular breakfast spot in Lowell. Thankfully, the wait wasn't excruciatingly long. But were we too eager? Inside was bit gloomy. I think the old school cafeteria look was ruining it for me. The food was underwhelming. Stuffed French Toast- There's no shortcut when it comes to making a good stuffed French Toast. When I cut this in half, there were freshly chopped up blocks of cold cream cheese between the toast. This should have been whipped and the fruits were soggy. Irish Benedict- Nicely poached eggs on toasted English muffin, however, the corn beef and cheese sauce was flavorless. Overall Service: Upbeat staff but I wished the food and space measured up. read more

This place is so great. I had flown in on a red eye flight and needed a breakfast that was hearty and filling. Boy oh boy was I glad I came here! I had the eggs Benny and a pancake breakfast with chocolate chips. Bothe we're great and the price was unbeatable. What a hidden gem. read more

My wife and I go to Shaws every Sunday after Church I love to eat there every one is friendly and the food is terrific!!

Great place to have breakfast. The pancakes I had were so huge that I couldn't finish it all and had to take the rest to go. There's also a little gift shop inside that sells gifts and sweet treats. read more

ML Shaws Country Kitchen - American Near Me - Dracut, Massachusetts

Have been here many times. Average place for reasonably priced breakfast and lunch around Lowell/Dracut with plenty of parking space. However, service, food quality, and portion sizing varies and changes depending on who is working that particular day. My bf and I went twice in one week, at fairly similar times of the day, and were shocked at the difference in service and food quality we received just 2 days after the day we went earlier in the week. 1. Food portion sizes, quality, and preparation are not always the same and inconsistent. I ordered the same thing both times, but the Irish Benedict looked totally different in quality and portion sizes. 2. Most of the older women waitresses besides this one woman who is always very sweet can come off as rude and very off putting, but all the younger servers are always very kind and welcoming. read more

So...they renovated. Half the place!! Kitchen bigger, they lost a couple booths in the corner. Bathrooms look GREAT, with farmhouse white wainscoting 1/2 way up the walls. And...the main restaurant is still the SAME TIRED, out of date colonial blue with wallpaper & the same curtains it's had since what? 1997? I thought they'd at least paint the place. But no... Thankfully the food remains good. PRO - Beaver & I hit the place up on a weekday AM. Good mix of Blue Haired Ladies, teens & lots of "kid & parent" groups like Beav & I. Got the usual, croissant egg sandwich with home fries. Beav had his usual, pancakes & bacon. All the food was super hot & good. They seemed to "enlarge" the room next door & that's good, more seating. And they got BOOZE now, if drinking at breakfast is your thing. Waitress was busy but nice & checked back with us. CON - Sorry, but was hoping for WAY more with the renovations. Like no more 1990's decor. Farmhouse yes, 90's no. SO - if you go, as I've said before, fix your bedhead. If you are a townie, you'll see someone you know. On weekends, expect a wait. ML Shaw's is consistent as heck. read more

Been coming here for years. Friendliest staff. Best banana milk ohhh myyy god don't get me started. Best breakfast place.

Eggs over cooked and tasted like boiled eggs instead of soft poached. Serving size was good. Asked for hashbrown well done since I like them crispier instead of mushy. They were served soft and lightly cooked. Didn't pay attention to what customer requested. Perhaps this was a fluke? I usually wouldn't say anything but this was the second time I ordered the eggs Benedict (gave it another chance) they still can not master properly poaching eggs read more

ML Shaws Country Kitchen - Eggs Benedict with over cooked eggs. Usually they are runny and soft poached. - American Near Me - Dracut, Massachusetts

Great Food, Fantastic Service, Generous Portions and Fantastic Prices! My breakfast of Eggs Benedict with home fries and my friends GIANT meal of 2 huge pancakes, a plate of home fries and 4 pieces toast altogether came to just $20 and 33 cents! I've yet to try their lunch option since they've been so known for doing breakfast. I look forward to dropping by some time within the near future to try their lunch. 5 solid stars read more

Very nice. There is always a bit of a line on weekends, but totally worth the wait. Clean, friendly and though a bit on the slow side, the wait is compensated with flavor. Try the Cinnamon Roll French Toast! read more

This place is a homerun for breakfast, I really enjoy their entire menu. The inside is so relaxing and casual and it's great for both dine in and take out. Friendly staff, good food. I would recommend going here and will be returning. read more

I wish I could give them more stars if I could! We've been to brunch all over Boston and eastern MA, but Shaws is by far the best we've ever had. Their Hollandaise sauce is creamy, tangy perfection; no one else's even comes close. Seriously. I could wax poetic about it and would buy it in bulk if it was available. Their eggs Benedict is better than any of the expensive, posh brunch places in at least a hundred mile radius. The decor is warm & inviting, with quaint sayings on plaques all around the restaurant. It is always clean, bright, and cheery. The staff are always warm and friendly, and our favorite waitress, Amy, always remembers our names and who we are, even when it's been a couple of months since we've been in. We won't miss the inconsistent, and often mediocre brunches we've had in Lowell and the surrounding area, but we will definitely miss ML Shaws!! read more

Really bad first impression. I was super excited to try this place because breakfast is one of my fav meals but wow i was a bit upset. BUT I WILL GIVE IT A SECOND CHANCE. Felt like all of our food was a bit soggy u could say. As soon as i put a bit of hot sauce on anything just turned to mush. Corned beef hash wasn't even pan fried at all very mushy. Home fries looked good until i tried them. Pancakes just fell apart as soon as a little of syrup hit them. Like i said i will try this place once again but first impression wasn't all that. Also tried the chocolate dipped Twinkie and chocolate covered bacon. The chocolate was overpowering on the bacon. read more

Went here for a long time, then things got worse. Hair in food, rodent evidence around kitchen. Not thrilled with management, she seems more interested in flirting with male customers at the counter, then running a business. Not going back. read more

First time at ML Shaws was a very good experience. Everyone talks highly about it so I was excited to see for myself. When I went there was a line, had to wait a few minutes. Their menu has a lot of options, I went with the "Village breakfast" eggs, bacon, home fries (my favorite) crispy kind not soft and mushy... I also got a french toast to check it out. Their chocolate milk is soo good, it's very creamy like. I have to mention the portions are HUGE, make sure you come with an appetite! Very clean, has a gift shop with tons of things, all staff seemed very nice and welcoming. Can't wait to come stop by again to try the pancakes! read more

I miss living around Boston. It is a sad state of affairs when people consider ML to be the best Dract has to offer. ML Shaws is mediocre at best. The homefires are deep fried and completely uninspiring. The vegetables in the omelette are boiled. The bacon appears to be cooked the night before and then reheated. The scrambled eggs are pretty good, but really the only reason to come here is for the chocoloate milk. It is a good thing they are owened by the dairy farm. Do yourself a favor and go somehwere else for a good breakfast. It is not that far of a drive to lowell or nashua. read more

This place is a joke! Waitstaff is clueless and rude. They fail to acknowledge patrons as they come in or seat people once tabled open up. I wish u read reviews before we came here.... And check out pics someone posted about how filthy this place is. Also, they apparently don't like hear, as it was pretty cold on there too. read more

Was going there every morning before work for almost two years. Good food great great staff and the the pandemic happened. Had to cook breakfast at home every morningbut it was ok. Finally things were getting back to normal, work was work but breakfast was what gave me that extra boost in the morning. Then just recently I ordered breakfast sandwiches for a coworker and myself stopped at the ATM because I liked paying cash that way I can tip them well. So once I got to the ATM I realized I left my wallet at home, so I kindly called them instead of just not showing up because I now live over 50 miles away and I can't just run home and grab my wallet. Thinking they would be like don't worry you can pay us tomorrow I guessed wrong because I told her I forgot my wallet she said "so you can't pay for the food then have a good day and that was very unexpected. Previous to that day they would even call me by my first name when answering the phone, I felt kinda special. I guess not that special. I'll miss there breakfast. read more

M.L. Shaws is probably the best local breakfast place in the Dracut and Lowell area. the quality, service and price is well worth the wait in line on Sundays. I've had their corned beef hash omelette's, Village and Country breakfast, French Toast, and Pancakes, all wonderfully delicious, consistent in portion and quality. Their coffee is nice and hearty strong while their hot chocolate is always a hit with kids. read more

Found this place after moving to the area. It's my absolute favorite breakfast place. It's to welcoming and the food is always outstanding! The people who work there was always to sweet and I enjoy getting to chat with them. I always go for breakfast but recently had some time to stop in for lunch. The Ruben sandwich is one of the best ones I've had. Also the cinnamon roll French toast is a must try!! read more
