My mom and I love beating kids out from getting to sit in the 57 Chevy in the middle of the restaurant. As they sit there and pout, we slurp up our milkshakes. Yum!

Clearly a place frequented by the locals as it was very busy Sunday late morning. Donât be fooled by its location! The coffee and food was delicious. Lots of different breakfast choices. I didnât even read the lunch menu. They bake their own muffins daily and make their own hot sauce too. Itâs worth the wait. Weâll definitely be back if weâre in the area again.

My wife and I decided to have breakfast at this little place over going to the gym. We were not disappointed because we got to sit outside and enjoy our breakfast in the shade with a slight breeze. Our view wasn't so impressive it being the train tracks and a few parked cars but it was the service, the food, and the company that made it great.We had a what felt like a team of waitresses helping out this morning and they were so attentive insuring that my coffee was never empty. Whether I asked for an extra plate or a few more Extra sweeteners they were on the spot and always with a smile. The biggest take away is the way you could actually hear the smile in their voice when they took our order or asked if we needed a coffee refill. Great job ladies.In regards to the food, as others have stated before the portions were huge. So huge that my wife only order a side of French Toast (2) versus the normal stack (3). She reported that they were excellent and simply the best. I took their special which consisted of sub roll from Pantadosi's with HAM EGG and CHEESE, with hash browns on the side. Not only was it well prepared the food came out lightning quick. Great job to the cook.As for the company... simply perfect...so I guess I'll keep her.

The martini's are the best around. They have just about any martini you could think of! Haven't eaten here in a very long time, so I cannot say how the food is, but every time we go to Exchange Street Bistro, it is packed!

We went to Mystic Station because it was across the street from Boda Borg and we were really hungry after two hours of questing. We made the right decision. The service was fast and the portions were generous.

Consistently great food and great service!! You may have to wait a bit at times to be seated, but itâs more than well worth it. I canât say that thereâs a better breakfast around. An extensive menu which also includes an equally large and yummy gluten free selection, which is perfect. It may take longer to decide, than your wait! Portions are large and super fresh. They also offer bloody maryâs & mimosas... yes please!Though small, the ambience is perfect, the staff great, Christin is the best! Nancy, Vinny and all of the staff always do a great job making sure that everyone is welcome, and happy. A great place for sure! Love it here.

Not only great roast beef sandwiches but fried clams second to none. Their onions rings are hand battered and maybe the best kept secret it the Lobster Roll.

We were a party of one adult, two teens for lunch on a Wednesday. The wait was VERY VERY long. Once inside, the diner is surprising large with two rooms. However it is really crowded and very very noisy. This would not be a good place for anyone in a wheelchair as they would feel uncomfortable due to being jostled a lot, I suspect. Also, if you plan to meet someone to catch up, this is probably not conducive to talking as you have to shout to hear the other person. Food is excellent. Very large menu and a huge number of breakfast choices. Waitress was fantastic, although it took a while for our food to arrive. Decor and cleanliness was just fine. Overall an okay experience. We live in the area and have avoided trying this restaurant because the line is always about 20 people deep. We will most likely not return just due to the amount of waiting.
