Visited North Conway for the first time in quite a while to show my Brazilian immigrant wife the Kancamagus and fall foliage that she hasn’t seen much of in the time she’s been here due to the pandemic and travel restrictions. We tried a few different breakfast places before settling for the Stairway Cafe. They all had waits of 1+ hours at 11am on a Sunday. No big deal - that’s the world we live in for now and we needed to eat something. We put our name in and walked around the main strip and browsed some interesting shops while we waited. I was pretty hungry by the time we were seated. Ordered traditional breakfast of eggs over easy, home fries, sausage and toast. Unfortunately their idea of a traditional fried eggs is awful. I don’t know what they fry them in but it’s definitely not butter as it should be. They weren’t runny - in fact one was slightly over cooked and the yoke started to harden, but they had this strange slippery-ness to them as if they were cooked in some sort of oil. Gross. I ate them because after the long wait I was starving. Cooking eggs in oil is fine if you’re cooking for yourself in your own kitchen, but when people come out to have breakfast at a restaurant they expect traditional eggs the way most people eat them. On top of that the home fries were soggy and the toast was not buttered - instead it was laid down in the pan to absorb whatever was in it. The staff was very nice and friendly, but we won’t be back next time we visit. Probably the worst breakfast I’ve every had at a breakfast place.
