Best KPortal Reviews
Great food, vibe, and service. Took the iced coffee, and that was very refreshing. Loved playing their crossword with crayons while waiting for the food. The service was so quick that by the time we got done with the crossword, the food arrived. I took the hash quiche and loved it. My bf took the huevos rancheros, and loved it as well. Overall, pretty good experience!
Busy place but after eating there you can see why! We were seated quickly. My kids absolutely loved the atmosphere and they were not bored with everything they have to look at in there! Service was great!
I also told them of a gluten allergy and they did everything to ensure things stayed separate and everything was gluten free. They even have it outlined on the menu "gluten free friendly". It is often hard to find a place that understands and it was nice that they just knew. The gluten free pancakes and bread were amazing. They also brought my food out completely separate from my families! It is a bit pricier than your average diner but I promise you it's worth it!!!! You can also join the waitlist online!
Exciting and functional team! This location is an everyday place to be if you want. Service is an exceptional one, a spotless environment, and everything you order is accurately delivered with the quality you expect ????
Sweet Caroline, this place is so good, so good, so good! I've visited The Friendly Toast 3x now whenever I've made my way to Massachusetts and it has never let me down. This is a popular brunch spot in Andover so weekend walk-ins be warned you will be waiting for a table. Get on their wait list ahead of time via their website and cut down your wait time. Recommendations: Chicken and Waffles, French Toast & Blueberry Pancakes. The Monster Breakfast dish comes with pancakes or french toast AND home fries PLUS bacon & eggs (any style - I like over easy with the home fries), Mimosa with Orange Juice or the Raspberry Mimosa (little sweet but tasty). I've had different waitresses serve my family each visit and all have been great. A definite family friendly environment - the kids will love it.
We've been to The Friendly Toast in Portsmouth but have been wanting to try this location since it always appears to be packed during breakfast hours. We visited at lunch time and were surprised it was rather quiet, about a dozen or so diners. Our server appeared rushed and didn't appear to be in a good/happy mood. The hubby ordered the Classic Breakfast (two eggs sunny side, toasted english muffin, sausage patty and home fries), decaf coffee and an OJ. I ordered the Sam's Garden Omelet with 7 grain bread and home fries and a hot tea. The drinks were served quickly and it took about 15 minutes for our entrees to arrive. The home fries were starchy and cold so I asked our server if they are always served this way or hot. She proceed to say they are made first thing in the morning and kept in a warmer but quickly said "let me check with the kitchen". She returned about 5 minutes later with a small plate of hot home fries which didn't look as overcooked as the originally served ones. I would have preferred the egg in my omelet a little less cooked and for $16 would have thought I would get more than one slice of 7 grain bread. Our expectations of the food was higher given the perceived reputation that the chain is a step up from the run of the mill diner so we were disappointed with the overall experience. Our tab including tip was a little over $51. Hate so say, it's a one and done for us.
My daughter and I had a delicious meal at your restaurant this morning. The food was great and the service was wonderful. Alfonso greeted us at the door, welcoming us with a huge smile and leading us to be seated while asking us how our morning was. Our waitress Jess, was patient and kind and great at helping us decide what to order. It was wonderful to start our day with a great meal and two kind and friendly faces. Friendly Toast is blessed to have employees like Alfonso and Jess. We will be sure to come back.
Everything was amazing. The service (provided by Lisa T.) was fast, friendly, and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is "fun diner" - the dining room was clean, the bathroom was clean and well stocked, and what was visible of the back prep area was clean and organized.
But the food! Oh the food. It was truly delicious and unique. A perfect balance of savory-sweet-spicy! Crispy, creamy, pop-in-your-mouth flavors. The portions are big enough that we couldn't eat it all and we took it home. We're definitely going to be back. It was entirely worth the half hour drive to get here!
This location is always a vibe. Great energy. Great service. Great food. I usually come every Sunday and sit in my same as spot and have my same servers; Jess & Shawna. They’re always so welcoming and loving. They make you feel like you’re at home. I’ve tried out plenty of different locations in this by far as my favorite
