Reviews for Paperback Cafe in Old Saybrook, CT
This cafe has a wonderful ambiance! Lots of natural light in the morning and a small town Gilmore Girls vibe. The staff were... super nice and the food was delicious. They also offer fresh baked goods, including a gluten free banana bread this morning. Read more
Met my Dad here for brunch (breakfast is served all day- huge bonus!) We sat outside as it was a gorgeous October day. You can... hear the church bells from here as well, very charming. I was impressed to find out they had decaf cappuccinos , and milkalternatives such as unsweetened almond milk and oat milk. The cappuccino was huge, and even with almond milk, there was a tonof froth. Awesome. I built my own omelette - also pleased they have olive oil for cooking oil. I had an egg white omelette withspinach, mushroom and onion with Pumpernickel toast, and a side of oatmeal- YUM!Dad had an omelette as well, I forget whichone?but we both ate every single bite. This will definitely be our new spot for breakfast/lunch, or even for a coffee date :-) Read more
12.50 for the big breakfast ? One peice of bacon one sausage patty and the pancake was very small , food was good just very... pricey I feel for the amount you get plus the paperback lost the charm it once had , no books , no music , its turned intoanother overpriced shoreline summer spot ????

The famous French Toast is awesome. The glaze that is used is a welcome surprise. Service did take a while and it didn't seem... very busy but I suppose all good things come to those who wait. My son said the paleo pancakes were good, slight taste ofbanana. Read more
As usual I got the Paleo pancakes. I literally travel from my town to Old Saybrook every few months to get these.
Good service, but no wifi, the food no so good, the hashbrown was burned, hard to chew.
Brunch was good! Wait was tolerable, wasn?t very busy at 10:30/11 a.m. on a Monday. Food was yummy, price point was great. Will... totally go back. Read more
