A family restaurant menu should feel like a warm booth on a cold morning. Coffee keeps coming, pancakes land in a soft stack, eggs sit beside home fries, and lunch smells like roasted turkey, fried seafood, onion rings, and grilled bread. Bickford’s Family Restaurant has that old New England diner feeling. It is the kind of place where breakfast can stretch into lunch, and a plate of haddock or pot roast can feel like Sunday dinner without the long drive to a relative’s house.
This Bickford’s Family Restaurant menu and price list is based on the public Bickfords Family Restaurant pages for Burlington, Massachusetts, with breakfast and lunch-dinner prices shown on the restaurant’s own menu pages. The Burlington location is listed at 6 Cambridge Street, Burlington, MA 01803.

Bickford’s Menu Overview
Bickford’s is built around breakfast first, but the menu does not stop there. The breakfast side has omelettes, eggs, Benedicts, hearty platters, pancakes, waffles, French toast, sides, and drinks. Lunch and dinner bring soups, appetizers, sandwiches, burgers, seafood rolls, salads, roasted turkey, pot roast, steak tips, fried clams, fresh haddock, sea scallops, lobster pie, fried shrimp, grilled salmon, baked lobster Alfredo, and meatloaf.
The menu has a New England feel from top to bottom. Clam chowder, Ipswich whole belly clams, fresh Atlantic haddock, sea scallops, lobster roll, lobster omelette, lobster Benedict, and lobster pie give the seafood side real weight. The breakfast plates are more classic: pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon, hash, toast, home fries, waffles, and coffee. This is food with a checkered-table memory, even when the plate is full of lobster.
At the Burlington menu prices shown online, breakfast sides begin at $2.99 for toast, English muffin, biscuit, or two large eggs. Pancakes start at $5.69 for a short stack. Omelettes range from $9.79 to $17.99. Lunch and dinner starters begin at $4.29 for soup by the cup or sweet potato tater tots, while dinners range from $12.99 for roasted turkey or New England pot roast to $23.99 for the Fisherman’s Platter.
Omelettes Menu Prices
Bickford’s omelettes are oven-baked and served with three buttermilk pancakes or toast and home fries. That makes them filling without adding extra sides. The lowest omelette prices listed are $9.79 for Ham & Cheese, Turkey Sausage & Cheese, and Mushroom & Cheese. The lobster omelette sits far above the rest at $17.99, but it also brings real lobster meat and cheese.
| Omelette | Description | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Greek | Black olives, spinach, diced tomatoes, and feta cheese | $9.99 |
| Western | Ham, peppers, onions, and cheese | $9.99 |

For a steady breakfast, the Western and Greek omelettes give strong value near $10. Meat Lover’s is the heavier pick, while Steak Tip & Cheese brings a diner-steak mood without ordering a full steak breakfast. The lobster omelette is the splurge, better for someone who came looking for New England seafood before noon.
Eggs, Benedicts, and Hearty Breakfasts
The Eggs & Things section includes steak tips, hash, eggs with meat, and a simple two-egg plate. These plates come with three buttermilk pancakes or toast and home fries.

The 16 Wheeler is the plate to choose when hunger walks in wearing work boots. Four eggs, four pancakes, four bacon strips, and four sausage links make it one of the biggest breakfast values on the page. For a smaller but still full meal, The Lumberjack and The Bostonian keep the price under $10.
Pancakes, Waffles, French Toast, and Crepes
Bickford’s treats pancakes as more than a side. The Big Apple is the signature sweet plate, oven-baked with apples and cinnamon sugar. German Pancake and Dutch Pancake bring an older pancake-house style, while potato pancakes, crepes, and waffles round out the sweeter breakfast side. This part of the menu feels like a warm skillet covered in sugar, fruit, and syrup.

Dinner Menu Prices
Dinner plates at Bickford’s are served with a fresh vegetable or coleslaw and potato unless the menu says otherwise. This is the part of the menu that feels most like a New England supper.

Best Picks by Budget
For breakfast under $8, the Two by Three at $7.29, Buttermilk Pancakes at $6.29, Short Stack at $5.69, and Classic Thick French Toast at $7.99 are the strongest choices. If you want a filling breakfast near $10, The Lumberjack, Tri-State, Bostonian, Western Omelette, and Greek Omelette are all strong picks.
For lunch under $10, Grilled Cheese, BLT, Tuna Melt, Pastrami Melt, Hot Turkey Sandwich, Turkey Stuffin’ Sandwich, Premium Burger, Turkey Burger, and Classic Caesar are the main choices. For dinner, roasted turkey and New England pot roast are hard to beat at $12.99 because both come with that full family-restaurant feeling.
For seafood, the lobster roll, lobster Cobb, lobster salad bowl, fried clam dinner, lobster pie, haddock, scallops, and Fisherman’s Platter are the main draws. The seafood plates cost more, but they also give Bickford’s a clear New England taste. If breakfast is more your style, lobster Benedict and lobster omelette sit at $17.99 and bring the same seafood angle to the morning menu.
