Welcome to Parkside Cafe

“ We ate here twice during a weekend here in early June. Both times, the food was really good. Iced coffee drink was great. We ordered a grilled muffin. The banana nut was so good! I never would have thought to order a grilled muffin. Service was friendly. Restaurant wasn’t too loud and it was pretty comfortable overall. Food otherwise is pretty standard diner- type fare. But we all enjoyed it. ”

“ This is hands down my go to brunch place. They are super popular with the locals and I went on a Saturday morning and waited 35 minutes. It was completely worth the wait. The food and fresh and delicious. I tend to get a savory breakfast so their signature breakfast sandwiches are my go to. Try the tiger sauce! It's not for everyone and it's intense so try at your discretion. I for one could eat this sauce with everything. Especially the home fries! Oh and call ahead to see when they have sweet potato fries! These sweet potato fries are the best in the state (and probably world). ”

“ Love this place. Their prices are crazy low compared to the food quality. Very clean restaurant. The staff is always wonderful, and I've never had a bad meal. The restaurant is pretty packed during peak hours, so it can get quite loud just from other tables' conversations. There is no loud music playing, and there is a bar closer to the kitchen which may be a little quieter. If you're noise or crowd adverse, try going during the week. ”

“ We were passing through town and found the Parkside Cafe by pure chance. We are so glad we stopped in! Delicious food, WONDERFUL service - everyone was friendly as can be! The corned beef hash was exceptional and the pancakes were fantastic. Our servers were so kind and thoughtful, and they even helped us with directions around town. Thanks a bunch! It was a pleasure. ”

“ If I could give 6 stars for service I would. Deb and I stopped by for breakfast and I felt like this is the place to be, definitely trendy but for a good reason, great owners and service. We were sat in a nice room to the side of the hustle and bustle. We were treated like royalty. The servers had good perception. We ordered our normal breakfast, however the toasted muffin and corned beef hash stood out as well above the norm. Everything was great! Very satisfied and we can't wait to try their 3 other bristol restaurants. ”

“ We spent two nights in Bristol on our way to Massachusetts and on our last day found Parkside Cafe. It has a great atmosphere, and the service was terrific. As soon as you walk in, you are pleasantly greeted by the staff. There is something for everyone on this menu. At our table, the kids all had pancakes, which were delicious and cooked perfectly. I had the "5150" which was a BBQ pulled pork sandwich, which came between two waffles with some greens, red onion, and a fried egg. The homefries, bacon, side of ham, and English muffins were all amazing. Our waitress was very attentive and went above and beyond. We do travel to New England pretty frequently, and this visit to Parkside Cafe with its amazing food and staff will become a regular spot to stop at along the way. ”

“ One of the best cafes I've been to! We ordered the Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes with Turkey Bacon and Avocados along with a Mexican Breakfast Burrito and they were all very well made and wasn't strong on the salt and sugar which we liked! The waiter Summer was also extremely nice and attentive even with it being at max capacity This place is 100% worth going to! ”

“ One of the best brunches I’ve had in a long time! The Parkside had a huge menu with so many creative options for sandwiches, sweets, drinks, and more. Our personal favorite was the kielbasa sandwich (Spanky’s revenge), but everything was fresh and high quality. Our server and the owners were incredibly kind, checking in often and making us feel right at home. Cute decor, and it just felt like such a welcoming neighborhood spot. I hope guy Fieri would consider the Parkside next time he’s in CT for Triple D! ”
