5 Best Breakfast Restaurants in St. Petersburg

“Service and food was phenomenal! Our food came out fast and piping hot. Don’t skip out on the home fries. Was it pricey? Yes, BUT you get what you pay for here and the quality AND the quantity of it you receive was well worth the cost. Would eat here again in a heartbeat.“

“The first time we ate at The Frog Pond we knew we would be back as regulars. Their homemade strawberry jam is fantastic - definitely ask for a side of that with your toast! The breakfast sausage is amazing as is their Eggs in a Pan dish. It’s by far my favorite thing on the menu. The staff and manager, Josh, are also fantastic. Always great service and they were so wonderful with our 2 year old every time we came in.“

“I came in for breakfast and ordered a VIB I had a strawberry crepe and it was absolutely delicious. I was served by Diana and she not only rocked the floor she made sure I was okay she made conversation with me which sometimes doesn’t happen so I appreciated her friendliness if you ever go to this village inn you have to ask for Diana (she elevates the entire experience thank you Diana!!)Dietary restrictions: I don’t eat pork and they had other options of meat which some breakfast restaurants don’t have.“

“Expensive, but Worth It Buttermilk has a large space in a retail plaza. There are a lot of hard surfaces, so it can be pretty loud. Staff are universally pleasant, and it was especially nice to be checked on by the manager (owner?) Buttermilk wants to be super-modern with all the new tech. You can order from your phone, but they have traditional printed menus if you prefer. Your food is delivered by a robot trolly (singing the Jetsons theme song, no less). Fortunately, a server meets the robot at the table to transfer the food. And you can pay at the table by your phone or pay the server. Now to the food. While it is on the pricey side, they don’t skimp one bit on quality and quantity. I had the rather unpleasantly named Cinnamon Swirl Pack. The eggs were fine and the ham slice was delicious, perfectly seared. The star was the Cinnamon Swirl French Toast. Not overly thick so that it could be cooked all the way through. Too thick slices of bread get overcooked on the outside before the inside can get cooked and you end up with soggy bread—yuck. My wife had a standard scrambled eggs with very good bacon and excellent rye toast. The items above and a couple of coffees cost $47 after tax & tip. Pricey for breakfast for just two of us. But, again, the quality and quantity were there. I had plenty of leftover ham for dinner that evening.“
