Crown Cafe

Really good breakfast. Sunny side up with cheddar. I wasnt even sure what that would be like but did an amazing job. Tried my girlfriends pancakes and totally soft and gentle and delicious. Very nice friendly service and food came out like instantly. It was awesome. Also- great prices especially post pandemic when other places all jacked up their prices. Thanks so much! Excited to try lunch sometime.

Crown Cafe was so lovely. My fiancé and I frequent the Watertown Library and decided to grab lunch one Friday and found Crown Cafe. Sepehr was super friendly, excited to be serving us, and was very attentive to all the people in the cafe. I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes and they were so fluffy and delicious! I’m not usually a pancake kinda gal but these were so yummy and homemade. My fiancé ordered the grilled cheese and I’ve never in my life seen him eat an entire sandwich and he had TWO! The garlic and parsley in the grilled cheese was such a nice touch I’ve never considered when making them myself! The whole vibe was very homey and comforting. The prices are amazing and everyone working there is excellent! We were enjoying the food and our time there so much the owner very politely asked if he could take our picture for the cafes instagram which we were more than happy to do and now we have a sweet picture of our wonderful time at crown cafe! Definitely stop by if you’re in town, or even if you’re not in town! make the trip down to crown cafe and get some yummy food made by some real lovely people:-)

They have the usual breakfast and lunch items and also some creative inventions including a couple of Persian-inspired dishes. I had the Persian spinach omelette which consisted of spinach, rice, eggs and spices. It was really excellent, much tastier and more interesting than Spinach Florentines I've had elsewhere. In addition to a saffron rice pudding they make a different dessert every week and this week they had a choice of two. I got the walnut cake which was larger and denser than I expected and very, very good. There was also a strawberry dessert with gelatin. The saffron rice pudding is a regular menu item. The coffee was strong and really very good and I'm somebody who grinds my own beans so I'm picky. I don't know if it's a regular thing or not but he said that since I was getting the dessert the coffee was on them which was nice, especially since it was after the fact of having had my coffee and ordered the dessert, not told to me as an incentive to buy the dessert. Service was very good. The gentleman out front is very attentive and solicitous and his mother is in back doing the cooking.

Been going there since the nineties with various owners. Today, January 26th, stopped in to check out the “new” Crown. What got me first was how bright it was. It has a new look. Used to be dreary but now it’s nice and bright. It looks like a different place. The food was excellent. My wife and I had breakfast and it was absolutely delicious. They also have new menus which you can actually read without a flashlight. Great place.
