Start a day in Cohasset at 5 South Main, a morning place that offers great coffee to pair with your cinnamon roll French toast or pancakes studded with wild Maine blueberries. There’s an entire section of the menu devoted to Eggs Benedict and, if you stop by a little later, you’ll be hard-pressed to choose between the delicious assortment of sandwiches and salads.
Address: 5 S Main Street, Cohasset.

If your living room was light, airy, and offered a gourmet menu of American cuisine then it’d basically be Corner Stop Eatery. Doesn’t sound like your living room? Head over here and sink into one of the cushy couches in the bar area with a glass of wine. Then explore a menu featuring plenty of fish – try the Atlantic salmon with Israeli couscous. For a more modest meal, check out the sandwiches and flatbreads.

If you have any doubts that "rustic chic" is a thing, head to Perch 143. This cozy space with exposed wooden beams is hidden above a boxing gym! The menu is eclectic, leaning towards healthy – nothing here is deep-fried. That being said, you’ll love the burger bar.

This bakery is a genuine French patisserie. That information alone is enough to make me get in line! But, if you need further convincing, just picture yourself biting into a buttery croissant filled with chocolate, almond paste, or strawberries and custard. Just look at those enticing tarts! On the savory end of the spectrum, the croque monsieur will make you drool.
