Portside Diner

I LOVE this place! I wanted to visit this place because of the film ‘Hubie Halloween’. This place blew me away. The family-like atmosphere with frequent guests was incredibly heartwarming. We tried the Athenian omelet and their chocolate chip and banana pancakes. The food was delicious. If we’re ever in Massachusetts again, we will be back!

I appreciate how this place was able to keep it’s vintage ambiance. It made me feel like I was stepping into the 70’s, in the best way possible! Upon arrival we were greeted by a waitress by the name of Tammy. Tammy had a mother like persona which made you feel as if you were stepping into someone’s home. We felt extremely comfortable! Tammy alone deserves a 10-10. What a rockstar! We tried the PBB Omelette, the Western Omelette and Eggs & Hash. All three entrees had home fries, coffee and we had three different types of toasts (wheat, English muffin and sourdough bread). The corned beef hash was a bit above average, but nothing super special. Well grilled with a crust on both sides with an even ratio of corned beef and potatoes. For corned beef hash fanatics such as myself, I rate this hash 6-10. The corned beef hash was made with requested sunny side up eggs which were cooked to perfection. The home fries were simple in the best way possible. 7-10 which brings the dish to an average of 7.5-10. The Western Omelette was one of the best omelettes we’ve ever had. Perfect amount of peppers and onions, great tasting cheese and great quality ham. The eggs themselves were moist. This omelette breakfast is an 8.5-10. The PBB Omelette (which consists of ham, bacon, sausage cheese, tomatoes, peppers and onions) was also an enjoyable experience. Crispy bacon, good quality ham and sausage, perfect amount of veggies, easily an 8.5-10. I also have to mention that the coffee has to be the best coffee we ever had from any diner, and it’s never ending! Waiter Tammy constantly attended us and made sure our cups were always full. The locals who were present at the time were extremely extremely friendly and so welcoming! We will absolutely be coming back. If you are a fan of diners (especially vintage style diners), amazing food and the best service you will ever receive then this is the perfect place for you!
