Great food, great service. Usually busy.

Food was good and reasonably priced, but the place just feels too old and run down. The seating isn't that great either.

By far the best breakfast place around. The kind that you become a regular at, even through a pandemic. Been eating at this location for many years and it never gets old. Could recommend so many things but tend to stick with the farmhouse country scramble and french toast. Eggs Benedict is great too, and the kids always eat well. Most importantly all under $30 for a fam of 4. Very reasonable prices and service is consistently excellent.

This place was pretty good. Had a big yummy breakfast. Water could be better tasting. Seemed a bit short staffed but its well known its short staffed everywhere right now. Waitress was very nice. Wish there was mimosas served. Overall the crepes were delicious. I was tempted to ask if they sold a mason jar of their jam so yummy and tasted home made! Def recommend if your wanting a yummy filling breakfast. No adult breakfast drinks but the food makes up for it!

Lexi was a friendly, warm & delightful server. She helped us through the menu and was pleasant and professional the entire time. The restaurant itself appeared kind of dated and could use with a decor and paint touch up. But it seemed clean to us and the food was fantastic. Everything was the perfect temperature, good portions and great flavor. I had the taco omelette with perfectly seasoned ground beef and just the right amount of salsa and sour cream without being overwhelming. Coffee was a bit weak but they had a nice selection of flavored creamers. Hash browns were expertly cooked and the biscuit was the best I've had yet in Boise. Served with butter and strawberry jam, I could eat a plate of those alone! Buckwheat pancakes did not disappoint especially with our addition of chocolate chips and strawberries. Steak, mushroom and cheese omelette was a bit on the bland side and needed seasoning. All-in-all it was a good experience and we would return again or perhaps try their State Street location but then we would miss seeing Lexi again!

This small little breakfast shop packs a big punch. Amazing and friendly service. Food was excellent, taco omelette is full of flavor and the cinnamon roll was one of the best I've had. Will definitely visit the Egg Factory again next time I'm in town.

Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. But how can you mess up an cheese and spinach omelette. The cheese was sandwich slice cheese not shredded cheese and way to much spinach inside of the omelette. I won't go back. However the lemon poppyseed pancake was good.

This little place has the best home cooked breakfasts served by one who could be called Aunt Bessie or Auntie Rock N Roll! So fun , friendly and efficient. Great way to start my day. Sunday mornings are swamped... I try to go there on weekdays off hours. Family fave :)

From the moment we were shown our table to the moment we left it just felt dirty, much like our server who looked like she just jumped out of bed without even brushing her hair it was so matted in the back. She had long nails and either she is a gardener who forgot to wash her hands or has a fungus under the nails they were so bad. It made what would have been a good meal just taste bad. She should have been sent home to clean up before they let her out in the public eye. That being said I will never darken their doorway again because if they let that happen what else do they let slip by?

Prices are very reasonable, food is great, portions range from average to huge. Try to go once a week, always bring out of town guests who usually like it enough to want to go back before they leave!

Delicious breakfast joint hidden in a strip mall.More food than a human can eat for a good price.Biscuits and gravy was delicious.Hash browns were slightly crispy as I love it.Pancakes were fluffy and delicious.Service is good - my drink never hit the bottom of the cup.I brought the average age of the patrons down by at least 20 years. :)

The food was ok, not terrible but not great either. The service however was horrible. Not friendly at all. My server Rhonda B should find another job. She clearly does not want to be there. She acted like she was bothered my presence. I'd go somewhere else for Breakfast!

This is a great spot to have breeakfast. We were out of towners, i enjoy using yelp to find hidden gems. Mission accomplished. We went in 4 deep. We ordered eggs benidict, ham and cheese omelet, biscuits and gravy, and 2 flapjacks. Service was great. Prices were standard for a local eatery, and the food was great. If Im ever in Boise again, screw making breakfast, im going here.
