We are back for a visit and my daughter brought me here for breakfast and it is so phenomenal. Everything on your plate has given you a reason to come back. The potatoes are cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, the eggs are cooked. Perfect. The bacon is thick bacon and it's crispy and delicious. The coffee is simply wonderful. I really recommend this place. The music is fun in the furniture within the restaurant is so warming and welcoming.

They did an incredible job maintaining the historicalness of the area with the expansion and added seating that stays with their rustic, plant-loving vibe.

Located on the edge of downtown, Lately's is serving up NY style pizza, breakfast all day (and night on the weekends), along with select signature sandwiches. The NY style pizza has the perfect char, does not droop, and the toppings do not slide off. Perfectly balanced with cheese to sauce to dough, I cannot get enough - especially when slices are huge and just $2.99! I have only had their pizza but the staff and atmosphere are warm, sunny, and super friendly. Their shop is easily accessed from Water Street where there is tons of free parking and is steps away from Granite City Park (you know - the place with the chairs). Lately's takes card and cash, and also offers Coke products, self serve coffee, and a selection of cold adult beverages! There is plenty of inside seating, but, in my opinion, the red table outside in the sun on the sidewalk is where I like to chill. NY style pizza is alive and well at Lately's in Hallowell.

The sandwiches, though, were not too good- the guacamole on our sandwiches left an awkward taste, and the meats could definitely be better sourced. Boars Head would be good, for example. Two cookies we got were hard as a rock- not really sure what's going on at this place but it definitely gave off a weird impression in that the place was dirty in front and behind the counter. Definitely a hipster vibe, but it needs a cleaning and some help all around. Cost for 2 was $60! No plans in going back.
