Bryant's DEFINITELY takes the gold for breakfast! I'm sure glad we finally gave it a shot. We were weary at first, because the line is ALWAYS close to the door - but it didn't take long at All- they've definitely got a great team and process. Their line seems to be constant, even as we sat and ate, it seemed like 2 people got in line every time 1 got served, but no fuss! The food is knock- your socks -off delicious, and they staff is extraordinarily proficient and kind. 2 things to remember 1.)CASH ONLY and 2.) Don't waste your time or theirs - they doi not accept call in orders (they should include that in their phone message, really). Back to the food- WOW! I'VE NEVER SEEN such a perfect omelette, and NEVER tasted a potato cooked so magically as their ☆"potato pattie", which is NOT a Halloween or their hashbrown casserole, both of which are probably great, but their potato pattie is one-of-a-kind DELICIOUS! It has a light, golden- brown " crust", and the flavor is TREMENDOUS! IT'S sort of airy but it's the best flavor you can imagine! Their pancakes are perfect, as is their smoked bacon and country sausage. I had the plain pancakes, and they were simply delicious. Their biscuits melt in your mouth, and the grits are southern perfection. I've also had their pork tenderloin- I don't known what that grill is made of, but truly- it's magic! Definitely take time to visit Bryant's, you'll see that the line is nothing, compared to the sweet folks that are on staff or the awesome food that is UNFORGETTABLY DELICIOUS! IF I could give them SIX STARS, I WOULD!

A fantastic place. It's essentially a 50's style diner that focuses on breakfast food. On this visit, I ordered the veggie omelette and the hash brown casserole. The omelette was cooked to perfection and contained american cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms and onions, and came equipped with two fluffy made-to-order biscuits with a side of grits and gravy. The hash brown casserole was a delicious way to consume a spud. I was surprised to find that, even sporting an incredible appetite, it was a complete challenge finishing my meal as the portion sizes were massive. As far as the overall experience? The cooking was fabulous, the service was on point, and the diner itself (while a little cramped due to its older age and design) emits a nostalgic charm. I only deducted one star due to their process of having the customers wait in line to place their order before they get inside and get properly situated. Will definitely return, as the breakfast was amazing, and hopefully will be able to time my arrival at a less popular time in order to avoid the long line. 4/5 stars.

Great service and great food! Went on a Sunday morning and it wasn't too busy. Probably had to wait in like 15 min. Tops. Had the Breakfast special with the ham and it was amazing. Gave me more than I could finish. The coffee was probably my favorite. It wasn't fancy of course but it was solid coffee. I have an appreciation for the typical dinner coffee but I'd prefer to avoid it and this was definitely not typical dinner coffee. Apparently, the establishment does not appreciate cell phones. I learned this because I was on my phone while we stood in line and a lady behind me started loudly declaring how they used to "refuse to serve you if you were on your cell phone" and how there used to be a big sign that said "no cell phones." I took the hint and gave her a glare. However, this lady seemed to be the only one with a cellphone issue. So, I don't know if the staff are really weird about phones or not but the guy who served us was like really kind and not rude so I dunno. All and all great experience! Their outdoor seating was so nice too!

I dine here every week. Same as before, the food, service, and experience are great. Do lock your doors because of it being off from Summer, and you can't stop goons from being goblins.. The prices are still the same they didn't drive them up. Or I haven't noticed a change should I say. The omelets are huge, and biscuits and gravy are filling. Seasoned just right. They use the good bacon, so it's always fire. Their Hamburgers are thick, lush, and juicy. I messed up and got a double with a fry. Nuh, uh. It'll make you want a nap afterwards, lol. I ordered to go a lot, and the order is always fresh and right. With everything, no stragglers...I have 0 complaints. Thank you, Bryant's, every week for providing me with breakfast, brunch, or supper ! Happy Holidays to all that reads. Oh and Go. You have to go. it's one of the best breakfast places on this drive. Allot of bang for the buck !!! .. Pic is Philly Omelet has onions and peppers along with steak inside. Biscuits, gravy, and grits. There is plenty of bang for the buck. And a happy tummy

This place seems to be an institution here and I have an affinity for diners so I was excited to finally try it. I ordered an omelet which comes with biscuits and gravy and I got a side of hashbrowns and grits. The hashbrowns were great! The omelet was pretty good - the eggs were cooked perfectly, but the veggies made it a bit watery. The biscuits were nice and soft, but the gravy tasted like salt and flour which was better than the grits that had no flavor whatsoever. There was also no hot sauce in sight. For a breakfast spot in the south, you would expect the gravy and grits to be the better. At least put some Chachere's and hot sauce out on the counter so people can add their own to the grits. The atmosphere is also so odd. The interior is painted in primary colors making it look like an elementary school cafeteria.

If there was more room this would be 5 ☆s. They do breakfast right. Bring a big appetite or a partner. Oh and comfortable shoes and cash. No credit. It's small and supper busy. The tables are setup so you sit with whoever. No strangers at the table. The portion size are massive. We ordered the omelet and shared it. We both left so full. Like OMG full.. We had the Veggie Omelet, minus mushrooms add bacon. DON'T JUDGE ME! All of the flavors were there, the grits were smooth, the biscuits were a little heavy but the flavor... nomz. The only letdown was the gravy. It was gummy in texture, but again the flavor was good. Pros: Huge portions, good price point, great food, friendly service. Cons: Small, hard to get a seat, long line because they are so busy, closes early.
