      This place has the most incredible breakfast and lunch, while the staff feel like family and friends. To say I love it at the Eggshell is an understatement.

      Nothing fancy. Plastic plates and glasses but a great breakfast with excellent service. Had the breakfast wrap and home fries. Wrap was loaded with sausages and scrambled eggs. My friend had eggs and kielbasa with hash browns. The only reason this is not a 5 star was the kielbasa was like a hotdog but tasty.

      This is such a great breakfast place. We stopped here during our visit to Loudon and were really impressed with the quality and service of food served. So much so we came back for breakfast the next morning as well!

      Great options for vegetarian folks as well. Will definitely recommend to friends.

      NOTE: The food here is now served on regular dishes.

      By popular demand, I will give a Yelp to The Egg Shell Restaurant.

      The Egg Shell Restaurant is a hometown country restaurant located in a small strip plaza at the corner of Route 106 and Shaker Road in Loudon, about 3 miles south of the NHMS. The Egg Shell serves the typical breakfast fare and lunch fare (sandwiches, burgers, soups, salads, homemade desserts). The coffee brewed here is from Donahue Bros. The prices here are extremely reasonable, 4 egg omelets are $5.95 and under and sandwiches are under $5. For a more extensive menu with comfort dishes, steaks, and seafood, their other restaurant The Circle Restaurant in Epsom also serves dinner too.
      -----------------------------------------------------------------
      A group of my coworkers (scrubs) and I had a holiday breakfast at The Egg Shell Restaurant in Loudon very recently. We sat ourselves at a large table in the middle of the bright open dining room and we were offered beverages (coffee & juice) after we sat down.

      Anyways, we all place our orders shortly after settling in. However, a large order was phoned in and the kitchen staff became completely focused on completing the large order of food (lots of takeout boxes) instead of also focusing on the dine in customers. For about 45 minutes, no one in the half full dining room was being served any food. Our waitress had a mortified look on her face and apologized to us for the delay (not her fault in this case). She kept refilling our drinks. We were all occupied in deep conversations and enjoying each others' company while waiting. The other diners did not look so happy. The woman at the next table looked really p-ss-d off and was glaring at the kitchen.

      We also told the waitress that our boss did not want to come here with us because the food is served on plastic dishes which he calls "Alpo food dishes." My boss who is a local resident, also told me earlier in the year that if I ever knocked his hometown restaurant on Yelp, then he would have to *@#$ me. Well, look who's knocking on The Egg Shell? As a joke, we asked the waitress for a plastic plate which was obliged and we all signed the plate for our absent boss and the waitress also signed the plate calling the boss an "A-s."

      After the large order was done, the kitchen and waitstaff began to finally rush out the food to the tables. 45 minutes after ordering, we had a hot breakfast! I ordered a 2 egg Steak & Cheese Omelet ($4,45) with hash browns ($0.50) and a large baked cinnamon roll ($2.50). The food was really great! The omelet had thinly shaved steak with melted cheese and the homemade shredded hash browns were crispy and browned on the outside. The large cinnamon roll was excellent, which was rolled with lots of cinnamon filling and topped with sweet icing. The rest of the group also enjoyed their breakfast including pancakes, waffles, French toast, roast beef hash, spinach & cheese omelet, and the deluxe breakfast with homemade toast. We were all very full and way overdue back to work.

      Overall, the food we had was very good and very reasonably priced. I would've easily given The Egg Shell 4+ stars based on what I had, BUT the service from the kitchen was extremely slow on this visit. The kitchen needs to realize that there are also hungry customers in the dining room too. It did give us an excuse for a long breakfast.

      When we got back to the office, the souvenir Egg Shell plate was wrapped and gifted to our boss during a gift swap. The boss did get a great chuckle from the signed plastic plate, which was also stained with ketchup and traces of syrup and omelet. He missed a memorable breakfast.

      My friend and I stopped in for the first time today, although we are frequent customers of their other restaurant in Epsom.

      My friend had eggs benny which she much enjoyed, and I had the chef's omelette which was also very good. Service was prompt and friendly, and prices quite reasonable. Overall, a very positive experience!

      As a Loudon native I can't help but give this establishment a good review. Not only because they are one of the only local breakfast options in the area, but because I never leave the Egg Shell feeling unhappy. The best things about the Egg Shell include their service; employees are always happy and prompt to greet and get things rolling whenever a customer enters.
      Also their pricing is phenomenal, for such a local place with little to no competition as far as breakfast goes you really can't beat their pricing.
      Lastly, which is always a big deal to me, is how quickly orders go in and food comes out.
      For example, I was going snowboarding yesterday and didn't feel like making breakfast, so I dropped by and was kind of in a rush and I was there for a probably a total of 15 minutes, which was awesome because I didn't have any time to waste.

      Just felt I had to do my part and write a review because I feel there are way too many negative ones on Yelp. Check this place out and you won't be disappointed.
