We come here whenever we get a chance to because their food is so good and so affordable. The fried chicken eggs benedict was good; they use chicken tenders for the fried chicken parts and you get two strips, with two eggs, two english muffins, and your choice of sides. The eggs were a bit overcooked and didn't run as much as I would have liked, but still very good. Their country fried steak, sausage, home fries, hash browns, and gravy are delicious as well! I especially like their breakfast that includes pancakes because I get sweet and salty. Everything is made well and is what I expect when I think of or crave breakfast foods. Their portions are generous for their prices! The meals are delicious and comforting. Staff is super nice and checked on us a lot. The owners (we think) are super nice and welcoming. They greeted us, talked to us, and even gave us a free muffin to go. The owners showed us their appreciation and we're just very welcoming and warm. This place is always always busy when we come and they aren't open all day, so we really enjoy the days that we can come and enjoy a meal here. There isn't much parking in the front area because all the businesses get a lot of traffic and so, this place is usually very full and sometimes, there's a wait for a table. However, staff works very hard and are accommodating! This is a good place for brunch, a small group get together, casual date, yummy food, and had a welcoming atmosphere!

April 14th visit: I thought I already reviewed this and wanted to put it in before removing more pictures from my phone. I ordered the Tex Mex omelet. There was nothing in the description about beans, which I cannot eat, but it came with beans. Fortunately not inside the omelet ...I took the time to fish out each one from what was mixed up and piled on top. Otherwise, the omelet was ok, but not worth coming back and paying $14 for in addition to the drinks and tips. The menu item does mention "chili," but chili means different things depending on where you come from (note: they don't put beans in Texas chili), and I could not even see the beans from the tiny menu picture on my phone. I think they should change the menu detail to "bean chili." I'm really surprised by how much some have raved about the coffee ...it was actually pretty bad. And I'm no coffee snob ...I enjoy even the cheapest coffee. I normally drink several cups in the morning and I couldn't get past this first one. Something about it just tasted really off to me. I didn't give it much more thought until I saw how much I was charged for it. I'm pretty sure it was more than what the menu stated online ...I remember paying closer to $5. Very difficult to rate as I appreciate that this is a small, family business and many other people seem to enjoy eating here, yet the breakfast itself didn't make me want to come back.

I think Grand Day is a great place, especially if you’re looking for a nice simple breakfast. I’m a traditional meat, potatoes, eggs over medium breakfast eater. I’d give them closer to 3.75 stars since this was my first visit. First, the meal I got was excellent. Their breakfast potatoes are unique and flavorful. Coffee was decent with a good selection of creamers. Our waitress was perfect in my honest opinion. She was around just enough at the right times to get orders, check drinks, make food suggestions. Our food took a little long to come out but on the flip side it was a busy packed Sunday morning and I had zero wait for a table of three. My friend got the rueben dog which looked awesome. I top my breakfasts off with a chocolate chip pancake and theirs wasn’t as fulfilling as I’d hoped. Otherwise, the price was right, staff was friendly. For a simple breakfast without “putting on the ritz” they fit my fancy.

I am a huge eggs person, and this is my favorite breakfast place in Columbus. My boyfriend and I used to come here at least once a week until they messed up with our orders once so this is the first time after two months that we came back (sorry but not sorry for holding grudges). Still great food. I love eggs benedict. I've tried many different breakfast places in Columbus (perhaps all of them), and this place has the best eggs benedicts. We usually come here during the week early in the morning so it's not busy. It is busy on the weekends but the wait would not be ridiculously long. Highly recommend!

This is a nice little place to grab some brunch any day of the week. The atmosphere has a diner feel to it and the menu is quite extensive with breakfast and lunch options. Having only explored the breakfast half, I think their benedicts really steal the show. They serve some well-prepared dishes with no frills. They also have lots of creative pancake/waffle options which are pretty good, but nothing special. My only complaint is that I'd like to see more breakfast side options. Nonetheless, Grand Day Cafe is a great place that I'd recommend to any brunch-seeker in the area.

Excellent service, food came quick and beautiful very nice and wholesome people and the atmosphere is so cozy, and inviting! Very clean place, Very friendly staff and overall vibes are pleasant as can be! The food is just what you’re looking for with plenty of great options and very filling portions! The menu has so many tasty options I couldn’t decide! You can tell they actually care here and have ethics and morals. All around great experience and I’m from Chicago! Perfect spot for the family or when coming off the highway, located great and town is awesome.
