I’m not usually a negative person but frankly every aspect of my experience here was bad! 20 minute wait to get seated, another 10 minutes to get a cup for coffee, watched the chef dripping sweat over the oven, touching his hands all over, throwing food/plates around at careless speeds, put receipts right on top of the food, the home fries were hard, the food was bland, and the prices were high for the dive-bar scene you get

Terrible. Waited for food for over 30min. Asked for well done eggs and they came to the table runny still. I refused the entire meal of what I ordered not only because my eggs weren't cooked, they also didn't have orange juice so I couldn't have mimosas. Just turned me off completely. Went to Acapulco's instead and they were much quicker with service and executed the order just right the first time. Also when you have guests seated where you dispose of trash, I don't believe it's smart nor hospitable when you're legit THROWING it in the bin. Definitely not sanitary and could potentially miss and hit a guest or splash food/drink on them.... NEVER AGAIN.

Tom ( the owner) had a cooking class and it was FABULOUS. He was great with all of us and the food was delicious! I can’t wait to go back to try their breakfast😊

I had the number 1 is was delicious scramble egg French toast turkey sausage and home fries. Only things bad about the breakfast was the home fries they were not to my liking . The customer services was on point the waitress by her and managed. To make sure everyone had everything they needed . Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly Parking: Street parking is available Wheelchair accessibility: This place is very accessible for wheelchairs.

After reading some of the reviews about slow service, I decided to time our entire experience. We arrived at 09:46am, and were seated immediately (there were 2 open tables at the time). I take a bit longer when looking over the menu, because I try not to rely on the normal "go-to" items, and like to try new things, so wanted to explore all options, having never visited this place before (we were visiting from Ireland). We spent 7 minutes before ordering our food. After helping ourselves to the self-serve coffee (in various flavors!), our food showed up at exactly 10:06am. Nothing was undercooked or overcooked, it all came out exactly as expected. That's 20 minutes total from the time we arrived, placing our order, and receiving our food. Often times when people complain about long wait times, they don't consider the chatting they do with their group, or scrolling through social media, before even looking at the menu and wasting more of the server's time. Next time you see reviews about long wait times, consider all of the variables. I even had a chat with the owner about some of the negative reviews I've previously seen. Yes, the global COVID pandemic hit everyone, so of course there will be some staff shortages everywhere, so bear that in mind if complaining about being understaffed (but was assured that more staff will be brough in soon). In fact, despite being only 1 cook that day, and an eventually full restaurant and half the bar stools taken, everyone's food was brought out in the same amount of time as ours, from what we encountered. Our variables, for consideration: 2 adults, one of which is a picky eater, went about an hour before they closed for breakfast; food order was "The Scrambler" and "Breakfast Burrito" with bottomless coffees (self-served). We had breakfast in a few other places on this trip (Alaska, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts), and they all had "home fries" done differently. Craig's Cafe was by far the best version of home fries we had. They were not a re-heated version of Ore-Ida diced potato bites like we had in most places; Craig's were actual potatoes, cut and fried by hand; delicious! Definitely worth another visit when in Quincy next.

WARNING DO NOT GO THERE I have been here on 2 different occasions and never actually got to eat the food. First time I was seated almost instantly at the bar then waited for over an hour for the food to never show up. Was rudely ignored and never actually was given an exact idea of when the food would come out. So we left. I returned about 4 months later hoping it was a fluke instead I waited about a half hour for a table which is normal for a Sunday morning. But while I was waiting I watched 2 different guys leave over take out that was paid for and just never came out. So I knew this was gonna be a repeat but I was hopeful I realized as I was being seated that the tables that when I was first got there hadn't been served for that entire half hour. I still tortured myself and waited for over 45 minutes after ordering and realized it wasn't gonna happen. The food never showed and still extremely rude service I have no idea how this place makes any money. WARNING DO NOT GO THERE

Nice place for Breakfast/Brunch I went here for breakfast date on a Saturday morning. The staff were friendly and it wasn't super crowded. I got the Craig’s Benedict- Toasted English muffin topped with breakfast ham, two poached eggs and our homemade hollandaise served with home fries. It was good but I wasn't blown away. I'd come here again for sure but order something different. We sat by the front window and people watched. Then afterwards, took a wander through the park across the street to digest which was nice. Parking can be a bit of a challenge but you can find it along the streets.

Waited nearly an hour for food, couldn’t even really enjoy it cause the wait just diminished it. At that point I was eating cause I was starving, not because I had a bit of an appetite and wanted something good. On the bright side, the prices for breakfast are good, it’s just the wait. There is only one cook and when there are so many customers in, there should at least be 2. Hope the owner hires someone to work beside them, so people don’t have to wait an hour to eat. They can’t even close on time because there are still orders needing to be made. The atmosphere and staff are friendly, but no warning for the wait time and again the biggest con is the wait time. Come on a full stomach so by the time your food arrives you’re hungry again.

Came here after a workout with my friend because it had great reviews and I was excited for the food. From the very beginning we were told that we can pick our sits so we did. 20min pass by and no one took our order so I approached the front desk to asked for service and right away they took our order. However, we’ve been waiting for over an hour for our food and we were really close to leaving. If you’re thinking of coming here, I suggest asking for wait time because we were starving and if we would’ve known service was going to take more than 30min we wouldn’t have come here. Very disappointed because the whole time we have been waiting for our food no one came to update us regarding food wait time nor asked if we needed anything. If you choose to sit outside please take a look at the sturdiness of tables because ours was extremely wobbly and unstable. Once we got our food, it tasted good but the experience of enjoying our order was hindered by the following experience. The second we started to take our first bite, we were given the check in a “discrete” manner by the waitress folding the check and placing it on our table. Like seriously? You made us wait over an hour and the second we’re about to enjoy our food you give us the check? Beyond disappointed. I do not recommend coming here.
