This is a fantastic restaurant. Came here for breakfast. The food was incredible. The blueberry pancakes were perfect in every way. I got the Andy’s Breakfast wrap and it was very good. I only wish it had an additional protein in it since the entire wrap is mainly egg. Beyond that it was great. We also got the Robins Wrap and the person eating it was very happy with it.

Chloe was the best server, her section was full but you couldn’t even tell, she was super attentive. Also the food was delicious!! After a long week of getting sub par service and sub par food The Penguin was such a treat.

Even though it was a crowded Sunday morning in Bethany, everything was easy, quick and tasty. Being able to join the waitlist on line meant we could meander over to The Farmers Market until our table was ready. Our server, Julia had four tables sat in her section all at the same time. Was this a problem? NOPE!

Cute restaurant in Bethany with a nice breakfast menu. I appreciate that they’re conscious of the ingredients they use. We had breakfast scrambles and I did find them both to be quite bland. We will be back to try other options on the menu.

We enjoyed a late lunch here one afternoon. The menu has plenty familiar favorites to choose from and the service was great. We have eaten here in the past and will certainly consider returning in the future.

Excellent food and service. My waitress, Guilia was very helpful and attentive. I had the Spinach, Mushroom and Swiss Omelette which was so savory and delicious. The Whole Wheat bread with Raspberry jam was lovely and healthy. Coffee mugs keep the good Joe hot. It is my too-go spot when I want to spoil myself!

Great diner. Fantastic breakfast/brunch drinks and very generous portions. Maryanne has her own drink in the menu but she can mix with the best.

The only good thing about this experience at this boardwalk establishment was out server Giuliana. The wait was about 45 to an hour which is normal in that area, during the season..but we never received a text. When we went to check on an ETA, the hostess stated that a notification was sent. I showed her there was none then asked to see a manager. We sat down to a meal that was uneventful, the breakfast potatoes almost burnt. To top ot off, the manager never arrived- not even an apology given.
