Bread Box Cafe — Restaurant in Virginia Beach

Holy hell. Avoid at all cost We are in from Cali, looking for a good breakfast. Had promise from the reviews, left pissed off. Hash browns 1. Are not hashbrowns, they are homefries. 2. Those were so over fries my husband had to stab at them 4 to 5 times showing me. 3. Literal left a pool of oil under them. Next his eggs, barely cooked to scramble swimming in oil Now on to my breakfast. My fresh fruit showed up covered in powder sugar, negating the healthy sugars and muting those berries flavor. My cheese came with an omelette. Yes I wrote that correctly. I was able to pull a 2inch by an inch chunk off of the omelette. That still left me with the correct portion of cheese to omelette. My husband has years of working in restaurants, he is picky about service. The service was horrid. One waitress was wearing so much perfume that all I could taste was the chemicals of scent. The main waitress, when we were paying finally asked how it was. My husband started with my omelette, didn't even get his sentence finished concerning my cheese. "That is how we do it." So feedback from customers is met with hostility. One more thing, as a baker my self and a cook, you would think a place would have breads on the menu if your going to call yourself the bread box. Or at a minimum a quiche to showcase you actually bake and can create from the post days breads. Or even a bread pudding if stalking bread and pouring an omelette over it is too difficult. Honestly its not that hard to do a...

We were a group of 4. We ordered stuff cabbage, pancakes, half a sandwich with soup, and a full sandwich with soup. We waited over an hour for our food. When we received our food, we received half a sandwich instead of a full sandwich as the waitress claimed, “I assumed that you wanted a half sandwich”. However, this was not the waitress that took our order. One person did not eat all their stuffed cabbage because she did not like the taste. The waitress took her cabbage away and we overheard the waitress and the chef speaking and he said, “Box it up and I will take it home.” When we mentioned how disgusting that was, the waitress claimed, “We would never do that.” The atmosphere was not great, the service was close, and the idea of someone taking food that we already ate (not to mention this person started feeling sick while eating the food) is completely disgusting and not appropriate for a food establishment to do. The health services will be contacted because that is disgusting and who knows how clean they are. If I could do 0...

Our Sunday brunch at the Bread box left much to be desired.

Our waitress was inattentive through the experience and over taxed. Our drinks were filled only by the other server on staff and dishes were left un-bussed. While the food was delicious, it was marred by the over 30 mint check time for a waffle and omelet. Any our server made no effort to explain the delay or offer bread to tide us over, as she did with an adjacent table she was clearly more familiar and attentive with. The menu is also deceptive when listing the waffles as "four" when in actuality it is just one waffle cut into 4 pieces. We were also overcharged for our side of sausage.

Insult was added to injury when out 'waitress" did not bring us a check and we had to hunt her down behind the register. She then ran our card and walked of, requiring the other server to approach and finish the transaction after a few minutes passed. While the food here is good, the sub par service will make me hesitate before I pick Bread Box for brunch...
