Decided to take my mom out for breakfast this morning. Even though we have been to Manchester many times over the years we have never tried this place. The wait was a little long because of a horse show in town but let me tell you it was well worth the wait. A little pricey but food was over the top excellent. Small place, better chance of getting seated a little quicker if you only have 2 people in your party. We had the buttermilk pancakes. My mom got the plain and I had the blueberry ones (no skimping on the blueberries served with REAL Vermont maple syrup. Lots of choices on the menu and everything everyone got looked excellent. If they only they had a bigger place!!
Hands down the best breakfast that’s worth the drive. One of my all time favorite morning spots.
Very cute little spot for breakfast!! It was busy (went on a Saturday morning) but they were able to seat us at the breakfast bar by the kitchen and overall it was very efficient without feeling rushed. Food was delicious and our server Jessie was so attentive and nice! We had blueberry pancakes and the breakfast special sausage hash. SO delicious! Large portions. Coffee special flavor was caramel nut - also delicious.
5 stars for their gluten free options. I have celiac and the server was very knowledgeable and confident what could be made gluten free while avoiding cross contamination. Pretty great for a small home style diner in Vermont!
I got the eggs Benedict on GF English muffin with home fries
It’s a popular spot so expect a long wait time during high season.
Very busy breakfast restaurant in Vermont. Small mom and pop shop feel and the BEST BREAKFAST in all of Vermont. Had the breakfast burrito breakfast special, and the taste and flavor was amazing. Staff was wonderful. Highly recommend!
Such a cute place! The food was fantastic! I'm normally not a "hash" fan, but that turkey hash was amazing. Huge portions w/ great prices. A bit crowded, but it's understandable for the size of the place. Staff were all very friendly and personable.
We've been dining at Up For Breakfast for decades, and the incredible fare, service, and homestyle charm never disappoints.
Yesterday morning, I had the short stack blueberry pancakes with bacon and pure maple syrup. The 2 pancakes were, as expected from past orders, massive (more like having 4 or 5 regular size pancakes anywhere else), and the 4 straps of bacon were perfectly crisp and flavorful. I topped it off with a seasonal peppermint hot chocolate. Perfection!
The prices aren't cheap but, for what you get in terms of portion size and quality, the value is outstanding.
Important: this is a cash-only Cafe (no credit cards, debut cards, or checks), so be sure to use a nearby ATM before dining if needed.
This place is always busy so you know it's because they are good! I didn't have to wait because they had a single seat left at the bar, lucky me. I ordered the standard breakfast, and it was very delicious. My eggs were cooked the way I liked! The sourdough bread was great and buttered to perfection. I cleaned my plate and left a good tip. The service was great and the price was right. I would return.
Great place to start your day in Manchester.
During our stay in town, we decided to give this place a try as it was the only place with a wait to get in. We liked the cozy vibe of the diner, and the food seemed quite good. We got the wild turkey hash, cajun frittata, and the buttermilk pancakes with blueberries, and everything was as good as we expected. My favorite was the wild turkey hash, and the thick buttermilk pancakes were great for carb loading before our hikes afterwards. Staffs were also very friendly, and overall, it was a wonderful meal.
Excellent food.
Courteous staff but hard to hear them.
Crowded and loud restaurant. Tight spaces.
Food was slow to arrive but worth the wait.
Stairs needed as restaurant in on second story.
Cash only.
Great place for breakfast or brunch. It is cash only and the prices are fair. Also, there are non-dairy options for coffee and tea for those who prefer it. I had the best french toast that I've ever had before here and the service was great! I definitely recommend this spot!
A cozy cute place nestled in the downtown. We loved having our breakfast here. Being vegetarian and a vegan, the food was very flavorful and spiced perfectly. We had the freshly squeezed orange juice as well. They don't have vegan options on the menu but they did make me a sourdough toast with sauteed veggies. The pan roasted potatoes were fantastic!!!!
This place is cash or check only. So make sure you have enough cash before you go!
