Had an amazing experience here. We walked in on a Sunday afternoon at around 12 noon, and it was all packed, but the staff greeted us warmly and seated us at a tiny table. Soon after some patrons left, they offered to move us to a bigger table by the window, and I really loved this. Coming to the food, it was hearty and comforting. I had the egg breakfast with sausages and baked beans on toast. My bf had the chorizo sausage and eggs with hash brown. Both of us loved our food. Loved my morning cuppa Joe as usual. My bf loved his orange cream beverage as well and said it was refreshing. The entire place was really well maintained and the staff checked in on us from time to time! Would definitely visit again!
Great breakfast with great service. The Shawsheen omelette was tender and delicious, the hash browns were perfectly crispy. the blueberry pancakes with lemon zest were also a highlight. Will definitely come back!
A real staple amongst the community in Andover. When you talk going for breakfast in Andover, you talk Shawsheen. A small space, that can get very busy and there isn’t a good waiting area, people are jammed in to the entrance area or waiting outside. I think that’s one of its big flaws, through no fault of their own. It can also be very difficult for everyone to sit together if you are coming with more than a party of 4 as the booths do not sit anymore than 4 and there is only 2 sets of tables than can be pushed together to seat more. Counter area can probably fit 12-15. The menu is pretty extensive for a small diner and I thought the food was good. Not the best breakfast I’ve ever had but good. Prices, considering it is located in Andover, are more than fair and I feel for bang for your buck it’s very well priced. Service was great. As long as you’re whiling to wait or can get in there on an off peak time, you won’t be disappointed.
We were a little worried when we walked in but it didn't take too long and they have awesome signs to read while waiting. Great service even though busy. Modified for dairy free with ease. Good homemade corned beef hash. My husband had "Barnyard in the Cornfield" . We left well fed. !
I was in a rush and found this little diner. It wasn't busy so I was hoping for fast service. I watched several of the servers make conversation with the regulars and passed by me several times. I sat there for 15 minutes and no one took my order. I serve for a living, and I just would never allow this to happen. In my restaurant. Very dissappointing. I felt as though because I was not a regular or from Andover, maybe not dressed as nice as other people, they ignored me. Terrible experience.
Been coming here off and on for a couple of years now. Consistently good breakfast. Prices have gone up 1$ on most items in the last three months alone. Gets very busy on weekends. I like that they have black beans as an option instead of just canned baked beans.
1. Hash & Eggs ($9.50). "Homemade Corned Beef Hash". The eggs lacked browning but were cooked over easy as ordered. The home fries had the slimy skins left on. Hash Browns the next time. No Scali bread, but the sourdough was perfectly acceptable. The hash was fantastic! A thick slab lightly crisped up and it was 95% corned beef. Less busy at lunch today, so the sound level wasn't that bad. Update: The Hash Browns are excellent! 2. Hash & Eggs ($10.25). "Spicy Pork Hash". With the hash brown potatoes this time. They were excellent. Occasionally hash brown comes out with partly cooked bits, but this was perfect. The spicy pork hash was a huge hit with me. Not very spicy but the poblanos were tasty and the pork (shoulder) was tender and plentiful. The eggs were, of course, cooked as ordered.
Visited around 7:15 AM on a Wednesday. Wasn't very busy at that time. I was greeted at the door, seated at the counter, and had hot, fresh coffee in no time. Ordered a basic breakfast of eggs, hash browns, crispy bacon, and a grilled english muffin. Eggs were great, crispy bacon request was honored perfectly, and the english muffin was grilled (not toasted) as ordered. The hash browns were fully cooked, but 90% white with just a top layer of browned potato. I like mine browned more, but that's just how they do them. I have every reason to believe if I were to request them mostly browned through, they'd oblige with a smile. I'll be back for sure!

We held a private event here and had a wonderful experience. Linda was helpful and flexible in the planning at every step. The private room was beautiful and the food was fantastic.
