The Eggbreak Cafe. I saw the name as I drove past and was curious as I was thinking about finding some food in the area. I read the reviews and that was enough to get me in.
The service was polite, never overbearing but not taking too long between checking in either. The food was wonderful. You can tell that they actually made the food, not just heating something pre-made up.
I had the standard eggs Benedict with a side of corned beef hash and hashbrowns. The eggs were poached perfectly, the hollandaise sauce was delicious, the hashbrowns were perfectly crispy but not burnt, and the hash was the best I think that I have personally had from a restaurant.
They have a very nice, large menu. A great selection of favorites and their own twists on classics from breakfast to lunch.
The atmosphere was bright and charming. Smiles, the smell of good food, and a nice shift of colors that kept it feeling bright inside without being whitewashed or feeling too cold or uninviting.
When it comes to price vs. portion they are reasonable. Most of their menu sits in the $12-$14 range. This seems to be on par with most places these days. For portion vs. price, I would say you get a fair amount for what you pay for. You will not be left hungry. My meal was just over $21 after tax. That was 2 eggs Benedict and hashbrowns on one plate, a side of corned beef hash on another, and a cup of coffee. The coffee was $3, but they left the carafe at the table with you, so I would say that's worth it as well if you enjoy coffee as I do.
Overall, I would give The Eggbreak Cafe 4.5 out of 5 stars. The food and service were wonderful. If the prices were just a little cheaper, I would give it 5 stars.
I would recommend The Eggbreak Cafe to anyone looking to have a good, peaceful meal in a comfortable...
Read moreAmazing restaurant. Went on a Sunday, which I assume is their busiest day. We were told the wait would be 15-20 minutes. I love that they give you a beeper and page you when the table is ready so we could wait in the car. We were seated within 15 minutes as quoted. The food was great, the prices were fair, portions were large, and you won't find better service anywhere. The food ALL seemed homemade, right down to the preserves offered with toast. Pancakes are lighter and fluffier than I've ever had. Even the toast is better (thicker cut bread and it wasn't doused in butter). My table was serviced by at least 3 people who made sure our glasses were full and our wants were met. As I watched the staff go back and forth, they were always scanning tables and faces to see if they could offer a refill or clear a plate. Kudos to the entire staff! We will be back! UPDATE: I've been back several times since I posted my review. All I can say is this restaurant is as consistent as it is delicious. Best place in 100 miles for...
Read moreCame late Sunday morning. There were six of us. There was a short line of people. Put our names in, got a beeper, and waited outside for about 15 minutes. While we were waiting, we were offered a couple of smaller tables, which would have split the group. We declined (but appreciated the offer).
Got seated, with menus and waters. The server took our drink orders, and those items came right away. I was surprised by the fresh-squeezed orange juice — nice touch.
The server was very pleasant, helpful, and efficient. It didn't take that long for all of us to get our orders. Everything was hot, flavorful, and good-sized portions. The pancakes were big and fluffy. The eggs were moist. My avocado toast was nicely made and tasted fresh. And the two poached eggs were medium — exactly how they were ordered.
The manager (or owner?) stopped by during the meal to ask if all was okay. It was.
Definitely a place I would recommend or...
