Best of Boston

The ramshackle exterior and the proudly mismatched chairs and handmade signs that shout out house specials at this seaside Brant Rock favorite may be no-frills, but the menu itself is thrill-packed. Dig into omelets stuffed with serrano ham and Manchego cheese or buttery pancakes piled high with fresh berries. It all arrives fast, and invariably accompanied by a snarky comment from the curmudgeonly but efficient waitstaff.
