Carm’s Restaurant and Coffee Shop

Love Carms..always stop for breakfast when in the area.went today with friends.Awesome Food,good service..However,windows are dirty..the one is terrible,looks filthy!!! Really detracts from the cute little place it is!!!!

I almost didn't want to rate this place because I want to keep it secret :)

Nice place. Had take out this morning.
However, they have good seating inside and outside. Staff is friendly and there is an old town feel.

Very friendly service, and even some unusual breakfast items!

Wow what a Breakfast! At the suggestion of our local rental host we took a stroll into beautiful Historic Downtown Chester to have breakfast at Carm's.

The setting is just quaint and wonderful right next to a beautiful brook and the end of Hampden Street Park, with a Visitor's Center right next door.
Right away, you can just sense the amount of personal care that has gone into their renovations and recent soft opening. The front entrance walk was all new and wooden, the inside of the restaurant was very clean and had a very charming historic vibe while still being bright and inviting.

The woman who sat us and took care of our drinks and order was extremely friendly and genuinely nice and attentive. The man at the stove in the back was obviously proud of his cooking and with good reason! Coffee was great, eggs were cooked to perfection both ways we had them ordered, the bacon was superb, toast was excellent and buttered right.

Oh and yes one moment let me say this - Best. Corned. Beef. Hash. Ever.

EVER. The gentleman that cooked it mentioned something about slow cooked brisket and how long it takes to make right and was really happy to brag about it but to be honest my attention was just fixed on the taste of that corned beef hash. I would order a plate of nothing but that hash. You must try it if you visit the area!!
Update to come on the biscuits and gravy - apparently also just as good.

Even the baked goods we bought to go were amazing. One of the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had.

If you find yourself in Chester and are looking for a delicious breakfast or lunch, check this place out - delicious, honest, beautifully made food from some really great people who are proud of their work.
We will certainly be back!

Best breakfast spot! Love carms!

Amazing service, the people working there were very friendly. The food was top notch as well, definitely would recommend.

Great food. Quality is always very high and consistent. The only downside is I don't live closer but thats not their problem.

Good food, especially the grits. Good value: servings are very generous for the price. Service was very friendly and accommodating. Historic Route 20 site.

It’s wicked cool here. Hip staff, good food, Elvis Costello blasting in the kitchen, lol
