Cafe Mirror

I happened to be in the city and was looking for a breakfast place. It looked crowded inside, which is always a good sign.They have hot breakfast meals to sandwiches, and you can get donuts. They also have lunch. The service was very good, I got hot coffee with an egg and cheese on an English muffin. They don't have a parking lot, so you have to find street parking which there is lots of. I found this is a local family business, which I am happy to come to. I would recommend it.

My review is 3.5 but bumping it up for service and donuts.I was visiting my friend in Brighton when he suggested we grab breakfast here; he's a regular. I got the pancakes/eggs/potatoes/meat combo but they were willing to swap out the meat for toast as I'm a vegetarian. I was happy they were up for that as the menu says no substitutions. My friend got the garlic, broccoli, and cheese omelet.My food was fine, nothing too special, although I did find a sizeable eggshell in my food which put me off finishing the eggs. My pancakes weren't very fluffy but still good, and the potatoes weren't as crispy as I'd asked for. The service was great though. It wasn't busy so they were prompt, but not on top of us. They were very friendly and personable. Our meal was really well-priced, especially for Boston, which was great.And the donuts. They have a full display case of fresh donuts that just call out to you. My friend got a chocolate glazed and I got a honey dip and a bowtie. They smelled incredible and tasted even better.I'd go back, but maybe examine my eggs a bit more before eating.

Came for breakfast early on Memorial Day so it was pretty empty. The space is a lot larger than I expected, and is perfect for a casual meal. The menu has all the essentials for breakfast.I ordered French Toast with blueberries and a Thai Iced Tea. I probably wouldn't order the tea again as it tasted a bit sour, but I really enjoyed the French Toast.The food came out relatively quickly and was fresh and tasty. I'd definitely come back to try out more of their menu!

A super casual and perfectly priced breakfast spot in Brighton! For both of our meals, it was only $28 in total. You absolutely cannot find that anywhere else in the city. Overall, the food was good! Nothing to rave about. Was disappointed a bit to find a little bit of egg shell on my plate, but it didn't stop me. Regarding the atmosphere, there is nothing special. I was a little bothered by flies I noticed flying around, but none came close to my food. Yes, I'll go back. But, I'm not counting down the days until my next time.

I love this place soo much. I got a full breakfast with pancakes eggs and sausage and a large iced mocha for under $15. cafe mirror is home sweet home. It's not about what it looks like it's about the price and quality of the meal! Classic diner feel

Cafe Mirror is ok. Not great, not awful, just ok. Came here last weekend for a bacon egg and cheese on a bagel. The taste was there and the price wasn't too bad. Decent amount of bacon and still hot when cooked. Definitely a step up from Dunkin down the street but not worth making a special trip for. We also got some kind of apple turnover that was just clearly not fresh and was $2 so definitely not worth it. The apple filling was canned and not fresh so I would skip over this. I've also gotten donuts and coffee from here. Donuts are decent, better than Dunkin', but I would pay more from a specialty donut place if the craving hit again. The iced coffee is solid and if you get it Vietnamese style super sweet. Sat down with a friend to have iced coffees a couple of months back since the place was dead and the staff seemed pissed we weren't getting food. We planned on tipping $5, and still did, but just seemed unnecessary since the place was empty. I definitely don't and won't frequent here but if Jim's is too busy I might get a sandwich to go.

This no-frills cafe is not the most inviting space from the outside, but it has quality food, inexpensive prices, and a lovely staff. I come here every weekend for breakfast, and I'm always impressed at the value. The breakfast portions are huge. Their baked goods (donuts, croissants, fritters, etc) are always delicious. They have solid coffee/tea. And the staff are efficient and friendly. A meal that costs $7 here would easily cost double that at a trendy brunch place.The inside definitely needs an update; think of a typical local diner. I've come to find it charming. And for all of the extra value, I'm happy to stare at some shabby decor.

The food is phenomenal the prices are not over charging!! The staff is awesome. I've come about 4 times already and I just can't get over it!! I highly recommend!!!

One of the few authentic dive diners left. I have not tried the seemingly amazing donut selection, but I went searching for a good BLT, and I found it here. The best, real BLT on perfectly toasted white bread with just the right amount of mayo applied at the right time, with iceberg, tomato and perfect bacon. Since the BLT was so good, I have switched it up for a turkey club, which is prepared similarly but with a third piece of bread and turkey, iceberg, tomato, bacon on perfectly toasted American white bread.I have been getting these to go ever couple of weeks for about 6 months and their consistency is flawless.

The food is reliable and satisfying. I always get oneOf the breakfast sandwiches and for some unknown reason they are the best around for simple breakfast sandwich. The people there are so nice and will always go out of the way for you. The space is very simple and a bit of a throwback but it doesn't need to be anything special. Their Thai Milk tea is the best around. Overall, come here at least once a week, go to cheap breakfast spot.
