This is a horrible place to catch up with out of town friends...Because every amazing bite of the food forces you to silence, to savoring each flavor and spice. You can't think of anything else apart from the taste. Even the crumbs left on the table that I of course didn't stick in my mouth...The care and excitement for the food is admirable, you can tell everything is handmade and thoughtful. I was very lucky to be a guinea pig for one of their menu experiements; maybe it will be called "Toasted Apples Delight" and maybe one day you'll be able to try it too one day. ;)
Great little spot for breakfast and lunch! The friendly staff, delicious food, and welcoming atmosphere make this a top spot for locals and visitors alike! Isaac and his staff go the extra mile to make sure everyone’s tummy is happy . . . Just listen to all the bell ringing as satisfied customers ring the bell that hangs near the door with a sign that says “Ring if your tummy is happy!” We enjoyed an omelette from the Omelette Bar, French toast, and a hearty Philly cheesesteak. Be sure to say hello to Mr. Richard. He’s a regular who’s earned his own stool at the counter where he enjoys singing the praises of Isaac and his staff. Check out Mr. Richard’s poem about the Half & Half that proudly hangs in the entryway. Definitely worth a visit to this little gem! Thank you Isaac!

A pleasant mix of Cafe and diner with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The owner and staff are friendly and the service is quick. The food is both delicious and a treat for the eyes. The chef clearly takes pride in both the appearance and the taste of the meals. All around, one couldn't ask for a better place to grab breakfast or lunch.

Excellent food, nice to eat breakfast with a delicious taste and not feeling gross! Definitely get the apple crisp FT and hash! Will not disappoint! Thank you Isaac!
Amazing place with great stuff and outstanding food !!!! We got the fruit crepe and avocado toast and everything tasted so good, probably one of the best breakfast places I’ve ever been to. I am a tea lover and there masala tea was the best I’ve had in the US. Favorite

First time visiting half and half , and 10/10 excellent. I ordered the oatmeal, which was cooked perfect . It was nice light with a creamy texture. It had some dates /raisins on top . Nice and light to taste, wasn't to heavy either. I also had organic Grey tea.My husband had chocolate chip pancakes with a side of Hershey butter.Absolutely delisheous, , fluffy ,not too heavy , just perfect ?. Hershey butter is the best and works beautifully with the pancakes.Everyone was wonderful, highly recommended Half and Half.Great little diner , definitely coming back .

Reading is a great town with lots of so-so restaurants all offering more or less the same bland options. The food selection here is more unique with each dish offering tons of great flavor. Portions are just right and the staff and service is top notch. A win for Reading.
Breakfast was amazing, service was great. The French toast were amazing, I totally recommend this place.
