    We went for a Sunday brunch. The place is usually busy during this time. Nice place for a family gathering during lazy Sunday mornings. All most all the diners were with their families. It's easily noticed when going through Washington Street to Walpole from Norwood. The food is good and the portion too. The service is also good and price is reasonable. During rush hour the serve time and wait time will be high.

    Tip notch old school diner. Omelettes are big and really good. Breakfast bowl will defeat even those with hearty appetites. Places like this are hard to find, but never forgotten. Do yourself a favor and go there.

    My favorite breakfast place ever! Service is always great no matter how busy it is, and the food is tasty for a good price. Try the Spanish omelete and the muffins too (orange cranberries are my fav).

    Great food. Nice ladies and great place. Small indoor experience with single or multiple seating.

  • 3/5 Marilyn G. 7 months ago on Google
    The service is always excellent. They just redid the dining area giving it a fresh appearance. Good atmosphere with a lot of old locals. This is your standard New England type diner. Food portions are large and very greasy. If you're looking for a healthy and energizing breakfast this is not the place. However, if you're looking for comfort food and possibly some left overs, then they have you covered.

    ❤️ Loved the Miami Omelet --jalapeños bacon tomatoes & cheddar! Lots of "locals" or frequent guests here. Family friendly 🚻, so bring those kiddos along!

  • 5/5 Cody Q. 4 months ago on Google
    A local Norwood breakfast place that serves great food at a reasonable price. Wait staff... always on point and never get my food wrong.

  • 5/5 Angel S. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is a hidden gem, great service, at home vibe and food that makes you feel like family. Not the biggest restaurant but it's quaint, it's cozy and it's worth it, check it out.

    Seriously delicious food! The best breakfast that we’ve had in the Walpole/Norwood area. We got The Brookside with French toast and a side of hollandaise sauce and the home made corned beef hash breakfast. The eggs were all cooked perfectly, the home fries were seasoned well and nice and crispy, the hollandaise sauce was probably the best I’ve had, and the corned beef hash was also delicious. The service was very friendly and attentive without being overbearing. It’s clear it’s a popular spot for locals as well which only tell me that this place has been doing a good job for a long time. This will be our go to breakfast spot in this area, too. Parking is on the street

  • 5/5 James C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great, friendly little place. Good luck with parking, but once you're in you won't care. Will definitely be returning for breakfast.

  • 5/5 Scott B. 1 year ago on Google
    A small style breakfast & lunch spot. Young and attentive wait staff. Very affordable and quite good. Recommended.

  • 5/5 G R. 1 year ago on Google
    The menu is awesome and the food is freshly made. A welcoming staff with friendly smiles and service along with the tasty meals give the Brookside Cafe a great reputation.

  • 5/5 Megan B. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply wonderful breakfast diner! The home fries were some of the best I've ever had. Service was professional and prompt. I'll be back.

  • 5/5 Nigel P. 1 year ago on Google
    Consistently great food at very reasonable prices with great service. My go to breakfast place in Norwood. At busy times keep in mind you may have to park a little farther away, so if you're taking someone who can't walk far, be prepared to drop them off. They also have outdoor seating now, which is a positive when the weather allows. Recommended.

    Coffee is pretty good, and that is a must for a breakfast place. Omelettes are really good. Can’t stand fat puffy omelets and these are on point. Home fries always crispy. Price is good, not expensive. Food is always served hot. Staff is fast, friendly and efficient. Great spot!
