If you and the kids want to do something special and go out to breakfast on the weekends, here are a few of the places that I personally like to go to. There are more in New England area that I also like, but I’ll try my best to keep it to just North Shore.
1) Pignones - Stoneham, MA: takes credit cards, friendly, good service, and Crepes Foster. Get there early, limited seating…need I say more?
2) The Country Chef - Wilmington, MA: takes credit cards, family friendly, great service, good eggs, and all around good time. Good parking, sometimes a wait, but worth it.
3) The Real McCoy - Middleton, MA: nice, airy, open, good breakfast, has healthy choices, pretty good parking, takes card
4) The Dream Diner - Tyngsboro, MA http://www.dreamdiner.com/ Cash ONLY, this is by far my favorite place to go, 50’s type feel, great food, there is a wait, but totally worth it…go early, that’s your best bet.
5) Bagel World - Peabody, MA and Reading, MA great for bagels and coffee (for you) , there is a sit down, but better going through the drive through
6) Beyond Bagels - North Reading, MA - Cash ONLY - good place also for fresh bagels, nice people and there is better parking and sit down place.
7) Parker’s Maple Barn - Mason, NH (okay, this is a ride) http://www.parkersmaplebarn.com/ but the ride is really pretty, and they do take card. My suggestion - go hungry, ’cause their portions are HUGE! They also have a website where you can purchase real home made maple syrup! Yum! They also have a gift shop…a little shopping, a big breakfast…how can you not go wrong here…beautiful scenery too.

There’s another Bagel World in Salem, near Salem College… always busy on the weekends!
I was so disappointed that I missed maple syrup season this spring. Parker’s Maple Barn sounds like a lot of fun; a great way to get my maple syrup fix.
And my son LOVES pancakes more than anything. His class was going through the holidays a couple of weeks ago, and for Thanksgiving, my 3 year old drew what he was thankful for. “I am thankful for pancakes,” it said. Of course, my husband, the pancake buddy, was pleased. The two of them make pancakes every weekend!
