Egg I has a typical cafeteria/diner atmosphere, but unfortunately, the hostess and owner were the rudest people I’ve ever encountered. Although I told them there were three of us, they only seated two of us and insisted we wait for the third before being seated. When I explained that the third person was on their way, they told me that if I didn’t like their policy, I should find another place to eat. That response was completely unacceptable, and I certainly will not be returning. The only reason I gave Egg I two stars is because our older waiter was very kind. The menu offered standard dishes, but given the price, it just wasn’t worth it.

Fantastic breakfast! The biscuits in my biscuits and gravy were light, fluffy, and crispy on the outside—simply amazing. I would have preferred if they had split the biscuits and poured the gravy over them instead of serving the biscuit whole. The sausage gravy was delicious, the home fries and pancakes were great, and the eggs were cooked perfectly!

I dined at this restaurant a few years back and had the chance to stay directly across the street during a recent family trip. We had a group of five adults and four children, and we were seated promptly. It didn't take long for us to order drinks and then our meals. The food arrived quickly and was very delicious! I would certainly go back.

This is a fantastic place for breakfast! I highly recommend trying the lobster omelet. The service was exceptional, and the coffee was smooth and just what we needed.

This was my first breakfast in Ogunquit since moving here, and I highly recommend the banana nut pancakes. If you’re fortunate, you might be seated in Mike's section; he’s one of the friendliest servers I’ve ever encountered! Update: I returned with my husband and sampled the fruit cup, iced coffee, and coconut French toast, and everything was fantastic!
