Exploring the Pompano Beach Drawbridge: A Gateway to Serenity
As you veer off Atlantic Boulevard and descend the ramp toward Pompano Beach, a striking structure greets you—the Pompano Beach Drawbridge. This isn't just any bridge; it's a nautical gateway that ushers you into a realm where the land meets the sea, and the bustling city life transitions into the tranquil vibes of the beach.
The bridge itself is a marvel, designed to reflect the sail elements of the nearby pier parking garage, creating a cohesive and welcoming entrance to the barrier islands. It's not just a passageway but a landmark that captures the essence of Pompano Beach with its grand sail-like entrances and a pedestrian esplanade underneath. This esplanade connects the south to the north, weaving together restaurants and buildings in a seamless blend of urban and maritime architecture.
To the right, as you make your way down, you're greeted by the 'yellow yolk'—a burst of color that adds to the picturesque views surrounding the area. It's a spot that invites you to pause and soak in the beauty, to watch the boats glide by as the drawbridge lifts, on the hour and half-hour, against the backdrop of the expansive sky.
The Pompano Beach Drawbridge isn't just a structure; it's an experience. It's where you can witness the harmonious dance of engineering and aesthetics, functionality and beauty. It's a place that reminds you that sometimes, the journey is just as enchanting as the destination.
So next time you find yourself at this drawbridge, take a moment to appreciate the intricate design and the serene views. Let it be a reminder of the delightful surprises that await when you take the scenic route.

Again and other excellent breakfast, wonderful place to eat great service, outside seating, and the prices are very reasonable, especially considering the atmosphere/location, rent can't be cheap.

This was my 3rd Sunday having breakfast with family at this restaurant. The service, menu and atmosphere is always amazing. Kennedy who has been our server all 3 times is FABULOUS! Can’t rave about this spot enough.

I liked it, but I wasn't wowed. It's a good place to go have a good breakfast at a decent price. I liked the eggs, French toast, potatoes, and bacon. The waitress that waited on us did her job, she waited on us, but not much personality. Again, nothing extraordinary stood out to me on this visit.

We had an amazing experience here, with great food and great service from Kennedy (she was awesome)! We drove from Canada through different states and couldn’t find any good breakfast place in a span of a week, but yellow yolk was amazing!

Food and service was great! Two of us had the breakfast burrito and two had omelets. Everyone enjoyed their food and the recommendations from the server (crispy home potatos and add avocado to the burrito). Thank-you, Izzy, for taking such good care of us!
I had the pleasure of being greeted by the owner this morning. He was so humble and inviting thank you. This restaurant is so clean. I love the decor just what I needed to get my day started. I absolutely love the decaf coffee and my food was good as well not heavy just enough for the price. Thank you

The worst restaurant in Pompano Beach. I usually don't like to give a review like this but coffee was brown water they gave me a different pot. Ordered my fav eggs Benedict. It was so atrocious. The hollandaise was off very sour. One bite and yuck. Waitress sts I am the only one that said that. Manager came over and said did you want to order something else. Bacon and eggs can they mess it up. Eggs good but bacon dripping in grease hard to sop up w a cloth napkin but i had to. And a piece of uncooked bacon in the potatoes. No apology from waitress or manager. When I said something abt customer service she said well we offered a replacement and gave me a look. I will not be back even though I can walk there. I'm sure they'll be busy w season so they don't care abt a local !!
