I had the absolute pleasure of indulging in a culinary escapade at the Brunswick Diner, nestled at 101 Pleasant St in Brunswick, ME📍 on this sun-kissed Monday. 🌞

This enchanting establishment effortlessly emanates classic vintage diner vibes, delivering a robust menu of classic comfort food that not only captivated my taste buds but also came with a heartwarming backstory—the delightful owner, Cassidy, a sweetheart with an immense passion for the diner, which was previously her mother’s. 💖

From the moment I stepped in, the aura of nostalgia and genuine love for the culinary craft set the tone for a remarkable dining experience, earning this spot a well-deserved 10/10. 🌟

Our gastronomic journey commenced with the Bowdoin bowl, a fully loaded breakfast masterpiece featuring crispy tater tots, brussels sprouts, cheddar, crumbled bacon, cherry tomatoes, and two impeccably poached farm eggs—all harmoniously smothered in hollandaise and adorned with scallions. 🍳🥓 The unexpected hero of this dish? The brussels sprouts, their unique inclusion weaving seamlessly into the symphony of flavors.

The chicken and waffles presented a delightful symphony of tastes, with a fluffy Belgian waffle cradling a hand-breaded crispy chicken breast tender, crowned with a decadent combination of whipped sea salt maple cream cheese and spicy hot honey. 🍗🧇 The star of the show? The sea salt maple cream cheese butter—a genuinely distinctive and scrumptious touch that elevated the dish to unparalleled heights. 👌

The two blueberry 🫐pancakes were a study in simplicity and perfection, each bite bursting with flavor. 🥞 Pro tip: drench them in syrup; you won’t regret it!

The chili we savored struck the ideal balance of cheesy goodness, leaving us yearning for more. 🧀🌶️

And finally, the Reuben sandwich—a culinary masterpiece showcasing some of the finest-cooked beef between two slices of bread. Each bite felt like a celebration of culinary perfection. 🥪✨

In conclusion, a visit to the Brunswick Diner is not merely recommended; it’s a necessity. The food deserves its solid 10/10, with affordability following suit. While the ambiance scores a respectable 7/10, it undeniably contributes to the overall inviting atmosphere of this vintage gem. 🍽️🎉

P.S.: Treat yourself to the delightful mimosas here, priced at only $10! You can even split a bottle of prosecco with fresh orange juice. Alternatively, indulge in an Irish coffee—either choice is guaranteed to hit the spot! ☕🍊🥂
