If you're a breakfast person, then Thyme Square is a great breakfast joint in Quincy! They make everything in house. I had the classic eggs benedict: eggs were poached well, hollandaise sauce was tasty, and ham had great flavor. The breakfast potatoes were ok, not my favorite. I asked if they could do shredded hash browns instead, but cubed fried potatoes is all they serve. Will be back next time!

My wife and I decided to try this place for breakfast. We're so glad that we did. It was truly the best breakfast we've ever had. I don't even know how this is possible but it's definitely the case. The amount of detail that goes into each dish was amazing. I'd include a picture but it'd just be an empty plate!

Great place! Clean! Fun! My charcuterie omelette was so tasty. The bacon is mmmmm & the accompanying homemade toast was yummy. Potatoes were good as well. Hubby's biscuits & gravy had eggs & potatoes & he really enjoyed it! Big portions. Ice tea was great! Coffee & cream good as well. Staff masked & pleasant. Go there! PS: call ahead for a reservation!
Oh yes--order a macaroon!!

Busy Sunday but after about a 30 minute wait, we were seated, our orders taken with beverages served immediately. Food came quickly. Staff was pleasant and professional. Everyone wore masks! Yeah!! I had the corned beef hash, partner had biscuits with gravy/cheese/ eggs and potatoes. Food was served hot, potatoes crispy, corned beef obviously home made- not canned. We shared a fluffy buttermilk pancake with real maple syrup! They serve some adult beverages at breakfast, including a spiked milkshake (next time!) this is a great place. Well worth the wait. Fantastic job Thyme Square Cafe!

When you talk about farm to table, Thyme Sq should be top of the conversation. They have such unique and wonderful dishes. I'm going to focus on their breakfast/brunch because I swear they have the best breakfast sausage I've ever had. You can taste the freshness in every bite. You know by that taste that this sausage is made fresh in house. The dishes such as their Country Benedict are dynamic and unique. They don't over plate with portions and the give you enough of each piece of the dish to really have an incredible experience while eating. Solid all around. Lunch is also great

I was so happy stumbling across this cafe during a recent visit to Quincy. After dining the night before at another local establishment in town where no staff or customers were wearing masks, it was very refreshing to walk into the cafe where every single staff member (even the cooks in the kitchen!) were wearing masks. All customers who were waiting for a table were as well. Thank you for taking this so seriously!
I loved the menu and was especially pleased by the number of hot tea options on the menu. I had the garden omelet with a cheddar biscuit. Both were delicious.

The customer service there is terrible. I ordered for curb side pick. Called to let them know I was there, she told me I needed to come inside. When I said I couldn't I had kids in the car with no mask she acted annoyed and told me I would have to wait until she has time to bring it out.
Order a separate time. Requested mushrooms be added to the dish. When I arrived I asked if I owed extra for the mushrooms. They replied "We didn't add the mushrooms." And turned around and walked away. Someone else finally explained they couldn't add substitutes but nowhere

What a wonderful place! So clean open airy and contemporary. Large variety of choices on the menu. It was so hard to decide what to eat. The food was amazing I can’t say enough good about it. Coffee was fresh hot and full of flavor. My bloody Mary was on point. I think my servers name was Jen she was super nice and attentive to our needs. Only one bad thing happened and that was we were not given a children’s menu. When I reviewed the menu I did not know there was a children’s option. So I ordered an adult size for my child. On the way out I saw the children’s menus. I would love to come

After having multiple people recommend brunch/breakfast here, we were completely disappointed.
It took quite a while for our food to arrive, and wasn't all that busy. When it did arrive, our expectations were not even close to being met.
I'm guessing there was a screw up in the kitchen or with our waitress as three out of four of our breakfasts were brought out by another waitress and they were lukewarm, if that. The gravy on the biscuits and gravy had already solidified again and the pancakes couldn't melt the butter. I'm sure that my corned beef hash may have at one time

Absolutely in love with this shop. The food, the owners, everything about it is absolutely amazing! The love and passion they have for their customers is obvious the second you walk in the door!!
I love all of the allergen-friendly options they offer in addition to their regular menu! They really do help to make my life sweet.

Thyme square is a Quincy breakfast MUST- don't get me wrong they have wonderful lunch as well but their breakfast is just SO GOOD! I usually get the eggs Benedict omelet and my husband usually gets the sausage eggs Benedict! They have great staff and a super cute atmosphere! They serve alcoholic drinks and for lunch the salmon is always delightful! My one rule is that you must always get a macaroon before you leave- you won't be disappointed!

I once went on a date with a guy in a mid-western city. He knew Boston, though, and missed it. You're an 8 here, he said, but in Boston you'd be a 6. I knew what he meant.
If Thyme Square were in Boston or New York, it would survive. It'd be upper half, but it probably wouldn't get five stars. I'd be parsing service or the mediocre tang of the Hollandaise sauce.
But Thyme Square is not in Boston. It's in Q-effing-Illinois, two hours from cities you've never heard of, and six hours from O'Hare, which is the most direct way of getting here. It's the

I moved away from Quincy in 2012 but EVERY time I go back to visit, Thyme Square is on my list of places to visit. Every. Time.
I remember years ago when I received a tour and saw their bacon being cured in house. This is when I knew they truly cared about the flavor of their food and I was immediately hooked. To this day I still brag that TS has the best bacon I've ever had (and I always order bacon wherever I go).
If you're looking for savory biscuits and gravy, you need to come here! And if you also enjoy homemade jam, make sure to get a side of toast to try whatever flavor they

If you want fresh food that uses great quality ingredients and really cares about their food this is your spot. In a world of short cuts they don't appear to take any. I can tell they take their farm fresh approach very seriously and they do a great job of bring the best of those flavors out. I was really impressed and would definitely go back next visit to Quincy.
The food is very reasonably priced, they use more of a farm fresh approach with out overpricing their menu. I had the free range turkey sandwich, they really made it stand out with all the multilayered flavors. The asparagus soup
