Martha's Cafe

Definitely coming back .. thanks to Jeremiah ( I hope that's his name) his energy from start to finish made this experience worth wild. The food was GREAT... the breakfast potatoes were AMAZING... the spinach omelet was made to perfection . Overall the food was great . The place its self is small yet cute . The decor could be updated . But again I highly recommend stopping by .

What in the world am I doing in Arbutus? Planning a rare lunch with two coworkers proximate to Catonsville, another coworker from the area steered us toward Arbutus' fairly new Martha's--where old school diner meets modern taste. Fresh food, fresh faces, homey vibe!I enjoyed my fine grilled (or crispy) chicken sandwich on roll with "shreddy letty" and other condiments with Parmesan fries and Old Bay broccoli sides. My cos enjoyed shrimp and creamy tan grits and the breakfast plate. Service from various young and upbeat staff was efficient and attention to our diet and allergy requests much appreciated. Definitely nice to know this varied menu cafe in a quiet residential area is around for brunch and lunch!

What an awesome discovery for us in Arbutus!Clean spot with attentive staff and service. Loved the variety of menu items - breakfast, lunch, and dinner all day! I had their cream of crab soup and chicken avocado melt with bacon. My husband had the same soup and a Reuben. I echo the same sentiment across many of the reviews - the cream of crab soup is AMAZING. We enjoyed the sandwiches we ordered, appreciated they didn't skimp on the meat. I do remember we had a side of the mac and cheese and it was the only item that was meh. Everything else was great though!I really enjoyed this spot and can't wait to try more of their other menu items! So many options! Highly recommend! And I just read on their website this is family owned cafe with a touching story behind the cute Zebra.

Finally made it to Martha's Cafe - why did I wait so long?! Delicious food, attentive/cheerful service and overall an awesome experience! Chicken and waffles and creamed chipped beef with Pullman toast were fresh and good portions.

Fantastic "find" in the heart of Arbutus. Great breakfast all day and creative, fresh sandwiches. The BEST cream ofCrab soup in the area!Family run and the most delightful waitress who will guide you through the menu.

Popped in here for breakfast and had a breakfast burrito + sausage. It was really great, I would be a regular if I lived in town.

Our travels today from Towson brought us over to the west side of the County, and I'd had this place bookmarked for a while, so we stopped in for brunch. It would be a 25-30 min drive from Towson to Martha's, and I wouldn't hesitate to drive there weekly to eat here. Such a hidden gem! Let me start with the service. These are some genuinely super nice people who clearly love what they do. The staff has a family vibe, and that starts at the top with the owner. Will is on-site, working, hands-on, and super well respected by his staff (3 different people told me about how great he is to work for). Onto the food. LAWDAMERCY! The food! Loaded Chicken and Waffles: The flavors went together so well, and the maple butter is bomb. Only criticism was that the bacon on the dish was not at all crispy, and well....flaccid. (Sorry for that word) (8/10)Monte Cristo: absolutely delish and the raspberry jam is such a nice contrast to the ham(s) and swiss. (9/10) Creamed chipped beef: This one SENT US. Probably the best cream chipped beef I've had in my 53+ years on earth. The chipped beef is finely chopped, and the gravy is smooth and like BUTTAH. This is the dish I would drive around the beltway for on the regular. Even the Pullman toast is perfect. Hearty enough to provide a perfect raft for the chipped beef, and toasted to perfection. Chef's kiss all around. (40 bajillion stars/10) Sides of scrapple and bacon: We requested for both to be crispy, and honestly, I would've liked about minute on the cooktop for the scrapple to really get a nice crust, but it didn't matter because the scrapple was soooo good. Inner texture was smooth, and free of toenails (sorry again, but IYKYK) which made me wonder if it was housemade. I wouldn't be surprised if it was, and if not, def was local. (8.5/10)Needless to say, we will be back and soon! Bookmark this place now! Thanks Will, Meadow, and company!)

The food was fresh and tasted great. Friendly waitress. Farmhouse look. With my Gluten issue, I had the Breakfast Burrito without the tortilla wrap, over their potato fries, with added avocado and shrimp. It turned out great.

I love the diner vibe this place has, it is very clean inside with a ton of space, , they use fresh real ingredients and are priced appropriately , The lady upfront was super sweet and doing a great job , My pick up order was easy and delicious

Quirky place with a good menu, but it's short of food on the plate, which, thankfully, is mostly tasty. Good service, no complaints there, but a tad too pricey for what you get. I wish them well. This was our fifth visit and my wife and I will come back again, hoping there may be changes.
