Food was good, service was slow. The cook doesn't wear gloves. He accidentally made me chocolate chip pancakes instead of regular, which I wasn't made about. However they tasted like banana, because he had just made banana pancakes for someone else. The side of sausage was cold inside. I'm hope today was an off day. I'll give it a few month and give them a second try. read more

Me and my husband were up early and starving and our fave place wasn't answering so we tried platters. NEVER AGAIN! Our coffee milks were light- that alone would have been fine. However, both of our omelettes had barely any cheese. Home fries sucked. Toast was more like soggy bread than toast. My bacon was good, but my hungry husbands sausage? BLACK BURNT TO A CRISP!! He likes his food crispy and could not eat it so it was bad. That's not all. The guy who I'm assuming was the owner had seen me grab straws utensils and napkins. He said 'she already put them in the bag' well I definitely was not going to put them back I mean that's unsanitary. The guy seriously reached in our bag and took our utensils out and put them back for other customers. read more

Platters Restaurant - Bacon sausage home fries egg and pancake - American Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

Best Place In New Bedford! Delicious food and the cook/owner is the most amazing, friendly, down to earth person!

We visited platters on a cloudy Sunday morning. The ambiance was on point with some great wood paneling. The service was friendly and the food was very good. My 9 year old enjoyed her eggs and crepes, the 12 year old enjoyed her omelette and my 2 egg breakfast hit the spot. Prices were very reasonable so all together we will definitely be coming back soon read more

On a whim, a dining partner and I decided to try this place. I can't believe that living in a place almost 9 years I had never been in. I can guarantee you that i'm going back. Our waitress Rachel was very friendly and helpful. They have a special for $7.25 that gives you two eggs(I chose scrambled with cheese), two pancakes, home fries, toast if you want it, and a choice of two meats(I chose sausage and bacon). The coffee was good and also hot. My dining partner chose the same special with french toast and sunny side up eggs. They give you a lot of food. There were local people there and a good vibe all around. If you're looking for good food this is it. If you blink twice you might miss it. For lunch they offer a hamburger with chips and a pickle. Also a cheeseburger with chips and a pickle for $3.05 and $3.25 respectively. Add 25 cents for take out. I will be returning soon. read more

Platters Restaurant - a car parked in a parking lot - American Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

I was on my way to Willow Tree. The parking lot was ridiculously full and I just didn't want the hassle. I kept driving. Didn't want Dunkin, Honeydew is closed (gasp!), and didn't want Burger King. Ive driven by Platters so many times over the years, but I've never eaten there. The place isn't much to look at. Don't let that deceive you. I often go for breakfast alone, because I get up much earlier than my husband and daughter. I was able to grab a table right away. My waitress, Janis, was super nice and attentive. Menu is on the table already, and I start to take a look. She came right over with the coffee pot. She filled that coffee cup so many times that I stopped counting after five times. I'm a big girl and hell, I like to eat, so I got the Large Breakfast. Two eggs, potatoes, two pancakes or French toast, choice of two meats ( I got bacon and sausage). The best part? I was offered sweat bread for my toast! Omg yummmm. Janis said they offer lunch, too. It was such a nice, homey atmosphere. Everyone seemed to know each other. I can't wait to go back, both with my family and by myself. read more

Brian serves a great breakfast at a very reasonable price and generous size portions. Bring your appetite you won't be disappointed. The wait staff is very courteous and friendly. read more

No frills, hole in the wall, "greasy spoon" if u will. That serves a basic breakfast with the best $. The best eggs benedict I've ever had hands down. Love the waffles and apple crepes. Hash is delicious. Even the Kale soup around lunch time is delicious. But, what I really love here is undoubtedly the S.O.S. $hit on a shingle for those that don't know. Is really a lost old school dish. Only 1 other breakfast spot in the city does it and I don't think there's comes even close to Brian's at Platters. Best prices/value in the city when it comes to the amount of food/quality u get. read more

I bring all my morning after dates here. Great food cheap. I always get the platter special 3 plates of food for $7. Brian the chef is a great guy and as a fellow veteran I support other vets. I have had issues however with 2 of the servers. One was extremely rude to a first time guest I had invited and he actually wanted to take his son and gf and walk out. 4stars for food and price I took a star off for the rude waitress read more

So so good.. Looks pretty run down when you walk up but a soon as you walk in you're glad you did... Smells great in there. My husband and I had a HUGE delicious breakfast for under $20. Awesome bacon, hash, and pretty much everything else. Definitely will be going back there often!! read more

First and last time here. I ordered a cheese omelet with crispy hame fries and please browned toast not just heated bread. I was assured this was no problem. As you can see i was given warmed bread barely toasted and boiled potatoes not crisped at all. The jelly is not packaged it just added in the container. Ok so taste wise. The potatoes are crunchy as in not fully cooked. The toast is just a soggy mess. OMG. They gave me one salt one pepper packet, two ketchup and two small napkins. Seriously!! Are these thst expensive. Never again read more

I've only been here for their breakfasts. Each time the food has been perfect; which is to say they can poach eggs really well. The staff are always friendly and the coffee refills come well before needed. Which is perfect for me as I drink it black and hot. read more

This is an awesome locals type place. It is very reasonable and you never leave hungry!

Great food Cheap. You get home cooking here. Not fancy. Perfect for sitting with friends or just reading the paper. You can't go wrong here read more

The food has always been good. However, an overweight server criticized my slim muscular build. "I wouldn't have gone THAT far" she says to another overweight female. "Too much muscle makes us look like guys". Needless to say, she is a jealous and insecure person. Would not recommend to anyone wearing a size 2.. read more
