The Door — Restaurant in Taipei

Amazing value! Comfortable place to enjoy a good meal and relax

You can get an excellent breakfast/brunch meal here. The owner/chef is very nice and does a fantastic job. It's a one-man show so be prepared to wait if there is a crowd. Everything is made to order. Best to go when you are not in a hurry. (Also the hours might not be too consistent.) My go-to is the Old-Fashioned Breakfast with two eggs (done however you like), toast (with whipped butter), two pieces of real American-style bacon or sausage, hashbrown/potatoes, fruit, refillable tea/coffee and a glass of freshly-made fruit juice -- all for under 200! I doubt you can find a deal like this anywhere else in Taipei. And the portion is very filling. The pancake and French toast breakfasts are also good, as are the other menu items. I'm amazed the prices haven't risen in all the years I've been going!

An unassuming diner that serves homely American food. It’s manned solely by the owner, so he handles the cooking, serving, taking of orders, and collection of payment. The food is made to order so please come with empathy and patience; it’s worth the wait.

We ordered the Old-Fashioned Breakfast and Banana Walnut Pancake Breakfast. The breakfast plates were served with bottomless tea or coffee, whipped butter, a side of fruit, and a cup of freshly-made fruit juice. It’s a very hearty breakfast at a very reasonable price. The Banana Walnut pancakes were made with a generous amount of bananas and walnuts.

The restaurant has a cozy environment, but as others have mentioned, the ventilation...

The food here is really good! If you are looking for an authentic American-style breakfast, this is the place to find it. Everything I’ve tried here has been the real deal.

The restaurant is run by a single person. He is kind and helpful, but if you go during a really busy time, you should expect to wait for quite a while.

Also, I learned through experience never to show up before 10:30. 😂

There aren’t too many vegetarian options on the menu, but if you eat eggs and dairy, the owner is super helpful about being able to leave the meat out of pretty much any of the omelette dishes or other breakfasts.

I highly recommend...
