(photo by Eric)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a &#8220;cheap eats&#8221; breakfast and lunch place on Cape Cod, we believe that Grumpy&#8217;s Restaurant in East Dennis, Mass., will make you happy.<\/p>\n<p>This is the ultimate &#8220;home style&#8221; cooking place where the no frills atmosphere is warm, the wait staff friendly, and the very good food served in big portions. Meals generally stay under $10.00. While you&#8217;ll find all familiar roadside breakfast and lunch items like omelettes, pancakes, waffles, hot dogs, burgers, meat loaf, mac and cheese, tuna melts, monte christos and salads, you&#8217;ll also find a nice selection of seafood. It is, after all, Cape Cod! \u00a0Crab cakes, fish cakes, \u00a0seafood platters, scallop rolls and broiled fish sandwiches are a few of the items you might find on the daily blackboard specials. \u00a0We didn&#8217;t have room last time for Grumpy&#8217;s homemade desserts, but do try to save room for delicious-looking sweets like Grape Nut custard and blueberry bread pudding!<\/p>\n<p>The long, plain one-floor, carpeted dining room is nothing fancy, but there&#8217;s a very nice light and breezy feel to the place &#8212; kind of a reflection of Cape Cod, itself. Located on the scenic, less commercial Route 6A, it&#8217;s the perfect stop en route to scenes of \u00a0salt marshes, harbors, ocean beaches, quaint historic bed and breakfasts and inns, open land and unpretentious mom and pop shops.<\/p>\n<p>I think we have all been to places on the Cape that are too touristy and a general rip-off. We know how important it is for you to enjoy dining out on your Cape Cod vacation and it can be a real downer when a sub par place interrupts your enjoyable vacation. Grumpy&#8217;s Restaurant\u00a0is not one of those restaurants. Grumpy&#8217;s feels just right &#8212; comfortable, friendly and with very good food. We highly recommend it for your taste buds, wallet and overall Cape Cod vacation experience.<\/p>\n<p><em>Grumpy&#8217;s Restaurant<br \/>\n1408 Main St.<br \/>\nRoute 6A<br \/>\nEast Dennis, MA<\/em><br \/>\nTel.
