Best Breakfast

After a particularly wild night out, Ardmore Tea Room is always there to revive you. This comforting classic diner has been an institution on Quinpool Road for more than 60 years, and has taken home almost as many BOH accolades. (This year’s gold is Ardmore’s eighth straight.) It’s affordable, it’s fast and it’s well worth the Sunday morning lineup. “I think it's not trying to be too much,” owner Mike Cormier told The Coast in 2022. “You know, we serve bacon and eggs and sausage and home fries and nothing real fancy, just good, home cooked, traditional breakfast done properly.”
