Millie's American Kitchen

This is our local go-to for a great breakfast. It's a cozy family owned place with a great menu and wonderful staff, who go out of their way to make us happy. Outdoor seating is comfy and dog friendly!

Horrible service, I went to get a Pick-up I said the Customer's name and I already knew it was READY because I had already received 2 messages from the App, the attendant simply LIE saying that it is NOT ready, and takes 2 Pick-up for 2 REGULAR Customers who arrived AFTER me, after he made me wait FOR NO REASON, simply takes the Food that was already Ready BEFORE I Arrived

Love everything except the news on the tv.

I love supporting local businesses and Millie’s used to be my favorite breakfast in Lafayette. It is now so overpriced for the food portions. I went recently ordered an omelette and side of sausage. $30+ for a small omelette, side of fruit, a single piece of toast and a side of sausage that came with two links for $6. Yes $3 each. lol. Really amazing. No drink was ordered. Felt robbed despite the wonderful service. The food was good too. I don’t mind paying that price if the food matches. This did not. Hope they rethink their shrinkflation approach. Won’t be going back any time soon.

The staff at this restaurant is very unprofessional. In particular, one man working in the dining area was extremely rude and disrespectful.

Great food, a bit loud,

I visited Millie’s for the first time in several years. I was not aware that they closed and reopened. I was hoping to the standard breakfast fare that Millie’s was known for, but was very disappointed by owners attempt to zhuzh up the place. The menu looks to have been expanded to include “fancier” options, but they failed so bad with something as classic as chocolate chip pancakes that my kids couldn’t finish more than a few bites.

When everything goes right!! Friendly happy welcoming staff. Great food and cosy atmosphere all over. My Mexicali burger was perfect. The ice tea was delish. I need to call them and ask what tea they use as I’m a tea snob. The final icing - a big slice of complimentary coffee cake that is the bomb. I’ll be back.

What a gem! We loved the homey feel, the huevos rancheros were delicious, and the owner gave us some complimentary coffee cake to share - so special! Will happily be back anytime we're in the Contra Costa area!

I guess I am not and I won't be the last one to write a review about how rude and disrespectful this gray hair guy is.

Finally got to Millie's, a local institution. The owner, Victor, greeted us at the door and then made our visit perfect with delectable food, fast, thoughtful service, and a cozy late morning vibe.
The famous Millie's coffee cake is as good as it gets; bathed in butter, with cinnamon struesel and a flavorful moist cake. Absolutely delicious.
The best part of this restaurant is the chance to talk and share with neighbors, as the atmosphere is friendly, fun and laid-back, with longtime regular customers and newbies like us. Ordered the giant Mason jar of fresh iced tea and the coffee cake and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. We will be back for a big breakfast soon!

After 50 years still slamming.
