Creative breakfast options plus plenty of the traditional. I got the skillet with mushrooms, bacon, and swiss over the home fries. Really appreciated the myriad options for making the skillet your own. Lots of specials in chalk up on the board. Lots of couples who were a mix of locals and tourists as Toast is just across the street and a parking lot from Nantasket Beach and its long, wide boardwalk. Loved recognizing our waitress and other staff including what we presumed to be the owners in lots of pictures by the front door. Lots of smiling faces from staff vacations to lovely places that have beaches. Sign of a real team.

Ask for your blueberry muffin to be toasted and buttered and prepare to have your mind blown. I've…read moreconsumed my fair share of blueberry muffins, perhaps an inordinate and unhealthy amount, and this was by far the best muffin period I've ever had. There were a number of other things I wanted to try in the pastry display, as well as a wide variety of sandwiches (including a beef tenderloin and a pork), but admittedly, after splitting a muffin, I was kind of tapped out. Weak. The bakery is located right by the beach so perfect for grabbing a sandwich and taking it to go. We had to wait a bit to get our muffin but to be expected for late weekend mornings. Bring cash to avoid a surcharge for CC transactions. There's a parking lot behind the bakery but just a warning that there are signs plastered everywhere that you should only park there if you're a customer and it's NOT for general beach parking. No idea if they tow but I'd err on the side of caution.

This could have been a nice experience but after our first visit today we will never set foot in…read morehere again though we live just a couple of miles away. My husband and I and two relatives met for breakfast here this morning. When we arrived this small place was busy and there was only one seating area available for the 4 of us. It happened to be near to the music speakers which isn't ever a great option but although the music was a bit loud it was otherwise "soft rock". Since we had no other seating choice, we had to take those seats. Two of us ordered coffee (okay) and blueberry muffins (okay.) My husband ordered a coffee (okay) and a pastry. The 4th person ordered a cold brew coffee and a breakfast sandwich. Upon breaking into his pastry (I forget exactly what it was) my husband found a long dark hair that was baked into it. Yuck. He went back to the counter to return it. My husband said the young woman (long dark hair) behind the counter was nonplussed, did not apologize, was not at all contrite, showed none of the kindness an establishment worker should show when confronted with a situation like this. Then, somewhat begrudgingly my husband said, she gave him a fresh pastry. Thank God the disgusting hair was literally baked into the pastry or she might have blamed one of us for placing it there. Her attitude with my husband made him think she suspected "foul play" which is why he thought to point out that half the hair was hanging out of the pastry and the rest of it was baked in. (Sorry, this is disgusting I know) That was bad customer service attitude #1. As we continued to eat and chat, the once mellow music coming out of the nearby speakers turned into a grating hard rock song. Awful. We couldn't hear ourselves talk. Bad customer service attitude #2 was about to happen and the last straw. Nicely, one of us asked the same gal at the counter if she could turn the music down. The young woman at the counter said: "I'll see if I can." Really!?!?!? She disappeared into the back and almost immediately out stormed a man with an apron on who began by scolding us!!! He said: "You wouldn't be bothered by the music if you weren't sitting where you are near the speakers." Wow!!! Although dumbfounded by his unfriendly attitude and overt aggression, one of us explained to him that we were sitting where we were as it was the only option when we arrived. Without missing a beat he "mansplained" that he would NOT turn the music down as it was for ALL the patrons to enjoy. The irony of this is that the initial crowds had dispersed at this point and besides the 4 of us, there were now only two older gentlemen in the place who I am going to hazard a wild guess were likely not enjoying the particular music that was playing then either. Instead, we simply opted to pick up our food, coffee cups, jackets, two handbags and we switched tables. It was a hassle to do so quite frankly. We were offered no assistance as we struggled with our food, cups and belongings. If it had been just my husband and me we would have left everything on the table, picked up our stuff and walked out the door. Nothing was that great that I would have minded walking away from it all. Super bad vibes here! I have never once been in an establishment where on the very, very rare occasion I have asked to have music turned down that it wasn't turned down. We weren't going to be there for very long; they could blast their hard rock again once we left. This is a food establishment not a disco nor a music venue. I believe the owners must hope that people will sit, enjoy some food and coffee and a chat or maybe if one is solo, read a book. Nope! Apparently you must enjoy the music too no matter how grating or how loud or what the staff mandates that you must listen to. On another note if you still decide to come to this miserable place, be warned that they will charge you 3.99% (please...call it 4%) more to use a credit card. There are so many other places to go on the south shore for breakfast where peace and pleasantness reign supreme. This is a hard pass imo. Pity all this because the two relatives we were with had previously enjoyed this place which is why the four of us were there to begin with. But now the owner has lost 4 local customers and anyone else I can convince in my personal orbit to go elsewhere. Rude customer service is not a forgivable offense in my book. Even if the end result was not to turn the music down, the reaction to our request could have been done in a much kinder manner. "Can I help you move to another table?" is a thought. Owner, if that's who you were in the green apron with no beard nor hair net: You clearly don't deserve nor do you apparently need, (based on your attitude "sir"), our money or our patronage. I'll wait for an angry owner response to this review. I'll take an educated guess based on his reaction to us that impulse control may not be his strong suit. Yawn.

We read gluten free reviews and were pleased to see they offer a lot of gluten free options for my husband who has celiac. The place was lively. It was incredibly loud and almost echoed resulting in miscommunication across our table and even with waitress. I thought my beer tasted strange and it wasn't until we were paying that I saw a blueberry hard cider on bill instead. Even when they brought our dish my husband and I both thought waitress said salmon but she said chicken. Our dishes were great though and portions generous. One table that was louder left and we were able to hear better. Don't get me wrong we are young and love a lively atmosphere but the sound seems to echo with booming voices and makes it difficult to hear. We'd come back again though if in the area.

The appetizer options were plentiful and definitely recommend the flatbreads. We had the Wild Mushroom that had a heavy dose of the kale-basil drizzle. And it's a big round pizza, not one of the typical small rectangles that get downsized for apps. The "Seriously Roasted Brussels Sprouts" were indeed well roasted and had a generous amount of bacon mixed in. So good for those where bacon is always a plus, not so much for vegetarians. I opted for the scallops as my partner doesn't care for them so I don't fix them at home. They were excellent and come typically littleneck clams. They were out that night so substitute 3 big shrimp. All for shrimp and good size but definitely overcooked. It was all served on top of a bowlful of corn chowder with potato. Thinner than a chowder frankly but it was a nice combo of flavors for the underlying carb. If there was a downside it was the room. There are multiple but we ended up in the bar area with the towering ceiling that made it really loud. Great that there was some sort of locals celebration at the bar but their volume completely dominated the room so it was hard to hear among the four of us who were a distance away.

South Street Diner was one of the few places open that early, so I decided to give it a try. Parking was easy at that hour, and I thought it was kind of cool seeing a classic diner tucked in among all the large office buildings downtown. I was in the mood for pancakes and ended up ordering the diner special with eggs over medium, home fries, corned beef hash, bacon, and pancakes. Unfortunately, the food was mostly average to below average. The eggs were a little underdone, the home fries were slightly overcooked in spots, and the toast was pretty standard diner fare. The homemade salsa was actually a nice touch and added some flavor to the potatoes. The biggest disappointment was the corned beef hash. I was hoping for something homemade, but it reminded me of the canned version I grew up eating. The texture and flavor just weren't for me, and I ended up leaving most of it behind. The pancakes were okay but a little dense and doughy, nothing particularly memorable. On the positive side, the coffee was decent, the service was fine, and being open early is definitely a plus for travelers. Overall, I'd put this one close to 3 stars. It's convenient if you need breakfast before sunrise, but the food didn't quite live up to what I was hoping for.

Once again, I am reviewing a diner. Diners have always been a favorite place of mine for breakfast,…read morewhich is my very favorite meal. You will see that I have reviewed several diners to date and will continue to do so. I am on a relentless mission to find the very best diner that I can. I will even drive a couple of hours from my home to be a customer at a renowned diner. Jimmy's is a good diner. Their meals are fresh and served quickly and they have many options on the menu. I especially like their French toast, and they're easy over fried eggs and toasted English muffins with home fries. I have also had lunch at this establishment and enjoy their fish cakes and macaroni and cheese that they have on occasion. It is hard to rate the ambience in a diner because they're usually isn't much to speak of. I do, however, really like diners to look like a diner as in to be in a rail car, have the colors of diners, such as lots of chrome and turquoise or pastels, and have neon lights. I like the throwback diners. I will give an extra star to a diner that says diner just by its ambience if you know what I mean, this diner does not have those features but the food is yummy.
