"Chad’s has been around since the 1950s, and while we aren’t sure who the original Chad is, he has clearly figured out the formula for a beachside brunch. On any given morning, there’s a line of couples, families with kids, and flip-flopped people waiting for classic breakfast platters and mimosa flights. The real perk of Chad’s, though, is the complimentary basket of warm mini muffins (blueberry or chocolate chip) that arrive with whipped butter once you’re seated. The coffee isn’t great, but the pancakes, crispy hash browns, and sausage-stuffed quesadillas are." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park
