I’ve eaten at Marshlands in Sandwich, not memorable and I was on my way to BLUE Harbour CAFE… came across this location. Terrible… Can hash. Brown potato homefries. Over cooked egg. Odd dusting of spice on top of the hollandaise. This place also does something I truly hate… Charge for maple syrup. It’s BS. Places need to adjust the prices across the board and just offer real maple syrup. Period. If, there’s anyone out there that actual likes this place, please… Just drive a little North to Blue Harbour Café… I wish I had.

Overall, okay. My daughter and I were thrilled to be back in the area and I decided to oblige her craving in going out for a lobster roll in spike of the long drive. The resturant was well seated and busy, and I took note of the«help wanted» sign in the window. The lobster roll was what my daughter had hoped for. Buttered warm roll and over filled with cool and creamy lobster salad. The fries were hot and crispy. I ordered the lobster bisque as a starter and while it was nothing really special flavor wise, there were many chunks of lobster meat in the soup. I have a confession to make. I REALLY like liver and onions. I mean REALLYLIKE it. And my family doesn’t. They don’t even like for me to cook it at home since they find the smell unpleasant, so I don’t get the chance to have it very often and tend to order it when I am out. I ordered liver and onions with double mashed potatoes. The waitress returned to ask how I would like it done, and I requested medium. The potatoes looked like they were just flung onto the plate and they arrived with two pieces of medium fried liver, two pieces of bacon, and some fried onions. No gravy. None on the liver. None on the mashed potatoes. I then requested some which arrived on the side and did not look appetizing at all, containing peas and chunks of carrot. I did dip a few bite fulls into it but decided it didn’t add anything to the flavor of the meal. Yes. I finished it. I was hungry. It was okay. And I did not want to wait for another meal to be prepared, especially since things were picking up and we had some lovely high spirited young children that were enjoying themselves seated next to us. We were asked by the server once, immediately after our food arrived, if it was good which is when I asked for gravy. We were not offered or given a drink refill. It was an additional half hour after we had completed our meal that she checked on us again. At that time I was just ready to leave and enjoy a beverage outside of the resturant. I am planning on returning in the near future for breakfast, I love me some good breakfast, and sincerely hope that breakfast is better.

Had a nice quiet dinner with my husband here. Service was excellent. Food was cooked wonderfully and was very fresh. We would eat here again.

Mediocre at best. Overpriced. Order their homefries and you’ll basically get 2 whole potatoes quartered and cooked 50%. I speak this from the last 4 orders I was foolish enough to make. I’ve even had the luck of an omelette coming out ½ cooked and oozing. Some waitresses are great, but there are a few that may have had a lobotomy. Basically good for people with zero tastebuds and a penchant for plain, bottom quality food.

My previous review was a little better. I went yesterday for breakfast with my dad after not having been in a few weeks and was very disappointed. I’m hoping it was just an off day and not a sign of things happening. I was very surprised that there was not one other customer as there are usually a couple people during off season no matter what day we go. I had the short stack french toast and was surprised that no butter came with it and it was almost cold. My dad ordered oatmeal and although we know it is a packet I honestly believe this was the smallest portion of oatmeal he has ever received. He even said, I know this is a packet, but wow. I don’t know if they usually make more than one packet as a portion, but it was barely worth the effort. He was so disappointed and told me to remind him if we ever go again that this is not a place for him to get oatmeal. I have to admit we did not complain — my father never complains in restaurants and tips as if he was happy. I believe he tipped almost 50% of the bill and I know that there is no way I would have left that much. Hopefully, the next time I go I can write a better review.

Really great food and a super nice staff! I was impressed by the amount of lobster in the lobster bisque and lobster rolls. They do not skimp! The place needs a little updating on the building but it is such a cute local place that it doesn’t matter so much. One other thing to be aware of is that they do not take Discover credit cards. I will definitely return though because the food was great and the prices reasonable.

My family stopped here for dinner the other night and everyone enjoyed their entrees. First this restaurant has a quaint atmosphere very down home. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. My son had a bacon cheeseburger which he raved about, hubby had a Cobb salad with house dressing(creamy garlic dressing) and I had the chicken cordon bleu which was very tasty. I would definitely recommend this place.

My wife and I tried to go to the Blueberry Muffin but the line was out the door. We decided to try Marshland For breakfast and now the Blueberry Muffin has some serious competition!

Went on a Saturday night for dinner with my husband and 4-yr old. Loved it. We ordered the spinach salad, which comes with grilled chicken, and the King size prime rib. My daughter had mac and cheese. The salad was delicious, with mandarin oranges and fresh sliced strawberries, almonds and a tangy vinaigrette. The mac and cheese was delicious. Baked. Not a huge bowl of orange Kraft mac and cheese for $ 6, which we have been served in many other places. The prime rib was huge!!! And came with a yorkshire pudding(not as good as my own homemade but then again what is?), baked potato and nicely sauteed veggies. After an incredibly delicious strawberry shortcake + vanilla ice cream to share for dessert(more than the three of us could finish!), we left feeling stuffed and carrying leftovers after paying the $ 45 bill. NOCOMPLAINTS whatsoever! The service was friendly, accurate and fast. Almost too fast. I get the feeling they turn over tables quickly because their dining area is rather small and it does fill up. But NOONE rushed us and we had a lovely dinner. We are spending the year on Cape Cod and we have been to very few restaurants where we feel we got a great meal for the price. This is off Cape but very high on our list and we would definitely go back!

I returned after a 4 month hiatus to give it a whirl. We are quite find of the staff but find that the food quality is just still not great as it was when they first opened. The fruit cup had unripe cantaloupe and translucent other fruits. My daughter had the French toast 3 pieces were soggy and the others were stale-ish. The coffee was way to strong.

Attempting to mix our local dining pattern up a little bit we travelled a few miles down the road to Marshlands for the first time. We went around 7:45 as they seemed to be winding down from the dinner rush and were seated in their tiny dining space promptly. It was a little bit warm and stuffy, not totally their fault, I’ll pass some of the blame off on the 95 degree heat. We ordered a few drinks, beers automatically brought with glasses. The bread and muffins were eh. They could’ve been a little warmer and tasted a little bit stale. They looked like the leftovers tossed into a basket. Onion rings as an app were perfect. Served very hot and brought out quickly. Entrees were timed well and the portion sizes were great. The clam strip plate was massive, whole clam roll came with a decent amount and the burger melt was large also. The fish and chips weren’t bad but I prefer a whole fillet not the nuggets of fish they used. Cole slaw was a little warm and fries were a little limp. All-in-all service was great, low key but available. The food was meh and I expected a little bit more since their prices are a little bit higher than places like Monte Christos up the street. I’d like to try lunch here.

so this is a normal dinner, not fine dinning… the food was GREAT the serving size generous, I had baked seafood HUGEI couldn’t eat it all even though it was so tasty. My husband had chicken picate’ with linguine it was very good as good as the Milepost… the staff was friendly adding an extra roll with my ‘doggy box’ we will go back. Clearly the ice cream is popular an antique car club pulled in for their monthly rally. the deserts are enormous and good.

This is the second time my girlfriend and I had visited Marshlands 3A. Both times we were very disappointed. First off, it was in the low 60’s temperature outside on a wonderful sunny and dry day, but inside it was hot and stuffy, as it was the first time we ate there. The service was extremely slow from ordering to actually receiving our breakfasts. The food is very mediocre. There is a huge inconsistency in how the food is cooked or not cooked. The man next to us at the counter had to send his scrambled eggs back because they were not completely cooked and runny. My pancakes were mushy and somewhat underdone in the middle. My girlfriend’s «grilled» bagel was greasy and tasted like everything else that has been cooked on the grill. It was not crisp and grilled, just hot and greasy. Last time we were there the food was just average, which we thought was because they had just opened at that time. Months later all is still underwhelming. There are mush better places for breakfast. How this place gets good reviews is beyond me. We will not be going back. We miss Sweet Lemons that had previously been at this location. Maybe they were not as polished, but we never had a bad meal at Sweet Lemons.

I was disappointing in Marshland 3A after hearing such great things about the Sandwich, MA locations. The biggest disappointment was their supposed«famous» stuffed clams which have been on the Food Network. They were big but, they were 90% breading and very bland. It took me until I was at the shell to finally find a piece of chopped clam! The food was not nowhere near the quality that the previous restaurant(Sweet Lemons) had. If you are on Manomet just go to Monte Christos for a better meal.

I have had breakfast with my family at the new restaurant twice now and both times it was fantastic. I don’t know what that other person is talking about. My eggs and home fries were cooked perfectly and the coffee is nice and strong. Everyone there seemed friendly and the service was great.

So first off, we are a big fan of Marshland on 6a so when we heard it was taking over the old sweet lemons building, this at least softened the blow. We LOVED sweet lemons! We had breakfast this morning at Marshland 3a and were completely underwhelmed! The food is completely mediocre. My eggs were just about over cooked, the home fries a little salty, but the largest infraction was with the corn beef hash. I am a hash connoisseur, so I always order it provided its homemade! So I asked our waitress(who was nice enough but without personality, might as well be at the blueberry muffin down the street) about the hash and she confirmed it was in fact homemade. When it came out it was visually evident that it was canned. I grew up on the stuff, the tiny potatoes chunks, the overly salty pink slime, it’s Hormel! So maybe it’s just a matter of educating the waitstaff, maybe she legitimately thought it was from the grill and not from a huge can that says Hormel or Sysco on the side of it. Either way, disgusting. The word on the street is the same, very mediocre, disappointed so far. Maybe the lunch menu will save Marshland 3a, we will have to give it a try.
