The food was actually fine but because they don’t hire enough staff to run the place well (I heard they’re trying to cut costs), the vibe and food didn’t matter match. It felt disrespectful to the workers that were there and us customers to have such few staff. Especially with such a busy busy restaurant. Feels greedy. I won’t be back.
This place is a great place for consistent breakfast with good options and friendly service. We're fans of the crab and shrimp omlette and the benedicts were good, but weren't huge fans of the French toast or the crepe. The kid pancakes looked great, and I would recommend the coffee cake in place of toast.
Plenty of street parking around (metered) and place can get busy on a weekend morning but seems to move relatively quick. Definitely worth a try if you haven't before.

Long wait for a table, longer wait for food. Food was bad all around. Greasy and flavorless

The food is ? however they really need a reservation system. There are like 30-40 people waiting in the alley and sideways. Thye have a very inefficient system keeping track of a list, names, calling and finding people, etc. Everybody is constantly asking where they are on the list, wait times are totally inaccurate. They say 15-20 minutes, it takes double that. I would avoid weekends...

Went in for lunch on a Thursday. Place was busy but not close to full capacity. Was seated immediately. Perused the brunch menu which looked reasonable.
Unfortunately that's all that happened for the next 25 minutes. No one came by to so much as offer water, nevermind take an order. Attempting to force eye contact or looking very bored elicited no visible response. Got up and left, I don't think anyone noticed.
During that time, the place felt quite noisy. Maybe they were having a bad day, either way, won't be back.

My family and I really enjoyed this spot. It was really busy but the wait wasn’t bad. They had a complimentary drink stand outside and lovely shops around to kill the time. The hostesses were very nice. The atmosphere of the restaurant was fun and modern, full service bar, our server was nice and the food was really great! Huge portions that we honestly could have shared.
We’ll be back and would recommend!

My kids took us there yesterday for my birthday lunch. We were told 20 minutes but we waited for an hour and 15 minutes. We saw a few groups of people seated before us that came after us to put their name down. This inspite of my wife checking with the hostess 2x politely. They apologize but did it again. I do not like causing a scene and it was a birthday lunch for me & my wife, arrange by my kids. Our waiter was very nice but the food came out like nothing that resemble the pictures online. Im posting it on here. I feel we were discriminated coz we were the only brown family at that time. I like crispy hashbrown and I specifically ask the waiter but my plate look like someone vomitted on the plate. I ate most of it, coz I was hungry and did not eat breakfast. You be the judge!

The atmosphere is nice, very new and modern. However, the food was alright; my hamburger patty was raw, and the hashbrowns weren’t crispy. The pancakes were great which is a plus. This place just opened two weeks ago, so there’s a lot of potential, I’ll make sure to come back when things are more situated.

Went down for a late Sunday Brunch/lunch. They were busy but we only had to wait barely 10 min, and the hostess was nice enough to come find us.
Portions are very big! We kept joking about it being a "2 egg" breakfast, because it was more like 4.
My chilaquiles was pretty good. Not excellent since I have a high bar for them.
Hubby's chicken fried steak was good too. I've had more flavorful gravy, but it was rich.
I was surprised that his potatoes were smashed, and not too far from my hash browns.
My tiki mimosa was good.
His melon smash was just ok-it was a full drink with no ice, so it was just barely cool.
I very much appreciate that the prices aren't crazy and the portions are generous.
We will definitely be coming back to try all the different menu items!

It's really loud. But the food and service are top notch. Pulled at 1130, table for 4 wait was 45ish minutes. Well worth the wait. Get the potatoes, share a pancake/sampler and order a plate of your own. The mimosas were delicious too

We ordered the Neptune Benny, chow, carnitas Benny and chow mein. The portions are generous! Between 3 people we could have easily shared 2 plates. The bennys were ok and swimming in hollandaise sauce. I didn’t like the home style smashed potatoes or the hash brown. The chow mein was too salty. There was too much oyster sauce.
Presentation of the food and the service were both great!

The Breakfast Club in Lafayette is a delightful addition to our city’s fantastic lineup of breakfast spots. The space has been transformed into a bright and hip venue, with both indoor and outdoor dining areas adorned with colorful flowers and umbrellas. The menu is extensive, offering a wide range of classic breakfast options until 3p (including various egg dishes, pancakes, and Benedicts—even gluten-free options) as well as some unexpected items like hamburgers, fries, and Reubens. The waitress provided excellent service, and the convenient table-side payment (akin to the Apple Store’s handheld credit card processors) was a nice touch. A+
