Earlier this week I wrote about a chef’s tasting I attended at The Colonial Inn’s Merchant’s Row in Concord, MA. I was fortunate enough to be able to spend the night at this quaint, historic Inn and the next day returned to Merchant’s Row before heading home to try their breakfast.
The menu includes something for everyone including a farm fresh eggs section, breakfast sandwiches, healthy options (I skipped this bit), and something Chef Pianowski refers to as sweeter stuff (I studied this section quite closely). Meals range from $7 – $19 with most items between $9 – $15; quite reasonable.
We started with the fresh baked breakfast basket ($7) served warm and smelling delicious; including scones, muffins, croissants, and cinnamon buns served with butter, jam, honey and a cream cheese blended with powdered sugar (OMG).
Sergio and I opted to split the menu ordering one savory and one sweet item to share. We started with a three-egg omelette stuffed with caramelized onions, mushrooms and Swiss cheese ($11) also served with crispy breakfast potatoes. 
Our waiter suggested we also try the challah French toast ($12) that is served with a bananas foster compote and a generous slathering of butter that is whipped with the zest of orange and crushed walnut that was toasted. This meal just might kill a diabetic, but I can assure you they’d die happy. 
The service and food was equally satisfying for breakfast as it was the night before for dinner. For those lucky enough to live nearby, I would certainly suggest checking out Merchant’s Row, which recently changed their menu.
Merchant’s Row at The Concord Colonial Inn is open daily for breakfast from 7AM – 11AM with brunch buffet served every Sunday from lunch from 10:30AM – 2:00PM. For more information and to make reservations link here.
