    Chicken kabob wrap, home fries with special sauce, grilled banana chocolate chip muffin
    Rebecca J.

    Service was excellent extremely prompt, super friendly, genuine, and attentive. Food was ridiculously good - got chicken wrap- perfectly marinated meat with delicious seasonings and balanced with dressing and veggies. Ordered home fries and waitress spontaneously "special sauce" on the size to have with home fries. Creamy and a little bit of heat. Made delicious home fries even better. Last but not least , got one of the most delicious grilled banana chocolate chip muffins I believe I've ever had. 20 out of 10. Will look forward to going back!

    food and service were good! only getting and only getting an4 star rating because it's a bit cramped seating wise and can get noisy when everyone is talking. not too much parking near restaurant

    The Hungry Man Meal.
    Jade B.

    Your local Ma & Pa type establishment that serves GENEROUS portions! The Hungry Man Meal is no JOKE! I barely ate anything the day before and I thought I could easily clean up a plate but when I saw how much I got I was overwhelmed! The food was excellent; nice crispy bacon, well seasoned potatoes and warm and fluffy pancakes. Too bad my party was full, we had a hard time finishing this behemoth of a meal. Affordable, delicious and worth every penny!

    Creekside exterior of Nan's Cafe, tucked across from the plaza and the gas station. Easy to miss if you're traveling east.

    The food is ok. The staff is very friendly and the prices are in the right range. Parking is not the best but they do have a small lot.

    My fiancé who is a French toast expert said the crunchy French toast was quite possibly the best…read moreshe's ever had. Got sat down quickly on Easter Sunday. Well oiled machine for service. Good vibes. Quick service. Food quality was the main driver for the review. Surprisingly inexpensive for the quality. Kudo's to the people that are running this place.

    Isaac greeted my friend and I when we arrived for breakfast and recommended the corned beef hash…read morewith eggs on top. It's homemade and was a really good recommendation! The corned beef is large chunks, not small diced pieces found in most commercial and canned hash. The potatoes, peppers, and onions gave a nice texture and flavor. I had it topped with two over medium eggs which were perfectly cooked. As I was eyeing the French toast, he gave me a single piece which included their fruit infused whipped cream and was really, really good! That might be my entree next time. My friend got the crepes and her face was doing happy expressions while she was eating. My new best friend Maria kept my coffee mug full-she visited the table frequently to make sure my mug never got low nor cold. She also took care to clean the table promptly as plates were finished. Now if my kids could learn that... oh wait, this is a diner review. The ambiance is cute and chic. There was easy access to accommodate wheel chairs and they have their menu clearly marked for gluten free available and vegan options (most of the menu). The menu is on the fancier side; they will prepare whatever someone wants (e.g. if someone just wants 2 eggs and bacon, they can easily do that). The location is on Main St. so parking is hit or miss. If you are nearby and want something good, this is a good option!

    I have visited the Winchester store many times. Muffins are all very good. The issues isn't the…read moremuffins ... The staff there are always nasty and owner must not care. I mention every visit that they should put a name tag in front of each muffin to speed up the ordering... I must waste my time and more importantly their time answering my inquires... what is that one , what is that muffin ? Does that have raisins on it ? Nuts? Dog shit in it? or whatever ? Wtf Or why are out of certain muffins ? Any In the back on racks? Put a sign up displaying a simple check mark of available muffins? One visit the nasty one at Winchester told me they were out yet I saw the muffin on a rack not yet ready to put out front? So this was my first visit to this Wakefield location ... same issues and staff nasty here too but a bit better as more mature employee? I ordered 6 muffins and wanted 2 in a separate box as a gift to someone and the other 4 in a different box...she puts the two in a bag... A bag ruins the gift look, damages frosting in muffins... they will not put any less than muffins in a box? I'll pay for the dam extra box? Or maybe a smart owner would have a small 2 muffin box? Asked for Boston cream ... out of them .. same as last visit to Winchester location where they were out of many options... Maybe if popular statistically ... then you bake more of them based on POS sales data ? Maybe seasonality affects the daily production forecasts? Maybe offer July 4th red white blue muffins, Halloween frosting, Thanksgiving? Christmas ? Then generate greater sales, The owner should hire a better manager of both locations and stick a dam name tag in display case for each muffin, train all employees in hospitality and importance to retain repeat customers? Owner probably now just mailing it in or letting the off spring to take or already took over ? Maybe sell just sell it off to a interested owner looking to expand, or Improve offerings , add high end croissants, pastries, quality cookies ... coffee and better options? Whatever... 4 years telling every visit to just put a f'n name tag in front of each muffin-so I don't need to ask.. especially for gluten free, nut free allergies conscience people... how about an ingredients sign for each muffin ? I give up
