16 Best Breakfast Restaurants in Gilbert

“love love love this place!! Ever had cherry champagne French toast? I did today and omg!!! ask for the French toast special...it does not disappoint!!“

“First time there. Restaurant was very nice and clean. Our waiter was awesome, the atmosphere was very pleasant and a nice family place. Food overall was mid. I ordered eggs benedict - the whites on my egg were so runny/raw, instead of ham steak they used sliced ham which wasn't even fried it was cold on top of the english muffin, the sauce was good but overall the best part of the meal was the potatoes which were warm and good., the eggs/ham were room temp if even that. My daughter took me for brunch she likes the place, I wanted to go to a diner, she chose there - I am not a fan. Presentation of the food was nice, but i like my food warm/hot that plate felt like it was sitting there before i was served.“

“That burrito was worth every penny. My wife and I will be back soon!“

“Wow, I found my new favorite breakfast spot! I was waiting for my car to be serviced at San Tan Hyundai and walked over to the closest breakfast spot. I was Welcomed right away as soon as I walked in, I was seated quickly by Karen. She was the sweetest woman and gave the greatest service that I can honestly say I have had in a very long time. The trick is to get there early on the weekends, if you don’t want to wait, but I will definitely be coming back.“

“The owners are nasty ppl that are literally stealing from guests. The "cash discount" is the guest paying the transaction fees. However, they're charging you for debit card transactions that dont exist. They are pocketing that money! They treat employees like garbage, and the kitchen is FILTHY!!!!!! MO NEEDS TO SEE A PSYCHIATRIST.“

“The Kolache Cafe: First things first: the location is so easy to get to and a super quick trip for anyone in Gilbert or Chandler. Plus, they have multiple locations around Phoenix, so there are plenty of opportunities to support this truly wonderful (and dangerously delicious) place.

The vibe:
The moment we walked in, we were OBSESSED. 🧡 Orange accents everywhere, the cutest uplifting quotes, and a space that is immaculately clean. You can genuinely tell how much care and love goes into this location — the employees love it here, and that energy is contagious.

The staff:
Beyond kind. Truly. We’re visiting from Oregon, and from the second we walked through the door we were greeted with big smiles and a cheerful “Hey, welcome in!” Instant mood booster. Every single person was warm, affable, and clearly proud of the sweet and savory magic they’re creating.

The kolaches (the main event 😍):
We’re a savory family, so we ordered a half dozen savory kolaches… and immediately regretted not getting the full dozen. Every. Single. One. Was. Perfect.

The dough deserves its own shoutout — fluffy, soft, and lightly sweet without being overpowering. It balances every savory filling beautifully.
• Brisket & mashed potato: Flavor-packed and instantly reminded me of Texas 🤠
• Fresh cubed ham & Swiss: Absolute perfection — the cheese pull was unreal
• Potato, egg & cheese: A breakfast classic done right
• Bacon, egg & cheese: Because obviously we had to — adding Cholula gave it the perfect kick 🌶️
• Smoked sausage & cheddar: We first tried this kolache in Texas… and I’m sorry but Arizona does it BETTER. Polish-style sausage, melty cheddar, soft dough — WOW.

We still have two kolaches left that we’re saving for later on our road trip to Tucson today (yes, they travel well and yes, we’re very excited).

Final verdict:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (11/10 honestly)
I will ABSOLUTELY stand by this place. Everyone deserves at least one kolache a week as a self-care treat. If you haven’t been yet — go. Immediately. 💛🥐

“Great breakfast, great service!! Highly recommend!!“

“I came here with my team on a business lunch. One of us couldn't make it and the bar area was very busy as well was our server. Our server managed her whole area with ease, and without making us feel like we were overwhelming her. She gave us enough space to converse about the business that we needed to tend to, and she was extremely sweet. The area was a little loud but we did not mind. Because the food was out of this world. Even though it was a business lunch, I decided to splurge on my team with bloody Mary's and they were fantastic. We got the bacon appetizer, the french toast appetizer, and I had a breakfast sandwich that tasted like an elevated McDonald's Mcgriddle. It was extraordinary. I will definitely come back with friends or even by myself. I am dreaming about all the other delicious menu items that I can't wait to taste. Bravo!“

“We got the biscuits and gravy and the corned beef hash. The corned beef hash was a bit too soggy for my liking, but the biscuits and gravy was really good. I don’t really see how anything we ordered made it a standout place compared to anywhere else around here, but they were definitely really friendly“

“Brunch with Mrs. V. @ one of our fave brunch eateries in downtown Gilbert. Frannie ordered the Chili Verde Benedict which she described as absolutely amazingly. I ordered Juan’s Breakfast Tacos (My go to) which had flavor for days. A beautiful Fall day, 85° and sunny, provided perfect weather for outdoor seating. Our server, Camille, was extraordinarily friendly, and engaging. The GM, Mariam visited our table and presented us with a complimentary cinnamon roll pancake (off their “secret” menu) courtesy of Camille, which was incredibly thoughtful and delicious. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend!“

“Great vibe, wonderful staff & really great breakfast options! Everything we ordered was delicious! We visited twice while in Phoenix because the first experience was really stellar. They did not disappoint on our return. Really nice to feel welcomed and cared for all while enjoying excellent food & service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We eat breakfast at the Guadalupe location and the food is great and the service from Dani is outstanding!“

“I arrived here totally hungry I'm not going to deny it and when I arrived I expected the best service, and so it was. Despite all the people who were there, they served me quickly and efficiently, I thought they would take longer as in other places, but apparently I can say that here whoever you are they give you good treatment and also considering the quality of the food, nothing better than those waffles with chicken.“
