23 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Kirkwood

“Aug 11 about 9:30 am. What a wonderful brunch spot. It’s between two sections of a shopping center and at a hair raising intersection but the breezeway was perfect on a summer day. Friendly staff, interesting menu, and a quick correction to an erroneously executed special request. We all ordered a different dish but all 5 of us were happy with the presentation and flavor. And no side-eye for lingering. Wish I didn’t live 300 miles away-I’d definitely come back!!!“

“we were all from out of town, looking for a good bite. and although its a tad pricey, man, did this deliver! the coffee was delicious, the biscuits were huge.. and delicious. the burritos were hearty and filling.. and idk what seasoning stuff they put on the hashbrowns, but wonderful. I felt like a stuffed big leaving that place, but it was every bit of worth it. if I lived in the area, it would definitely be one of my new go-tos for breakfast. my last thing, im not sure who the man is who was running the counter today, but he was cheesy and joyful, right up my alley! he made a "funny" from my husbands name and I ate it up lol I absolutely love stuff like that so it made my experience all the better.“

“I go to the Shack at least once a month. I was there recently and received excellent food and service. Jennifer was great server, nothing was too much trouble. She helped move all of our coats and bags in order to change our seats. She was cheerful and helpful. I bring my out-of-town guests here often. The menu includes healthy,creative, delicious entrees, and as well as gluten free options.“

“Enjoyed Sunday Brunch!!!!“

“We visited Oats & Honey yesterday and my husband and I both agreed we had the best lattes in our life! We had the chicken and waffles and burrito sunrise and it was all so delicious. This cafe didn’t just have good food, but each item was created to perfection. We can’t wait to try more menu items! Loved the atmosphere and lovely staff as well.“

“We got seated promptly and our waitress was very attentive. We did not order any appetizers, but the drinks were great. They had a signature cocktail of the evening since it was Valentine's Day weekend. I got the special for the evening. 14oz bone in filet and it was cooked perfectly medium rare. The potatoes and asparagus were delicious also. My wife for the steak and fries. Nice ribeye and loads of fries. She also said that s very good. We got got a desert. They were nice and decadent and rich in flavor. We had a wonderful time and I would highly recommend recommend this place again. Thanks for making our evening special!“

“Always fresh & delicious 😋“

“Always great, no matter what I get! 🤤“

“The time i sit down, order, have a drink of coffee, my food is there, quick and fast and very delicious. My server name is Mary, exceptional waitress, friendly, funny, good person.“

“We couldn't believe how great this little spot is. We stumbled onto it at 5am and had the biggest most tasty breakfast we've had in a very long time. The people are friendly, they have lots of regulars and they even have those gaming machines, I even won $80!! Plus the best part is they are open 24/7 and serve more than just breakfast, definitely worth a visit here.“

“Moving reviews over from Yelp. This was originally published in 2017:

There are better breakfast places out there. That said, FW is a solid participant in the sit-down breakfast/brunch market and does make pretty consistent food across all of their locations that I've visited with this one being no exception.

Had breakfast with the kid the other day. She ordered the Eggs Benedict which showed up on ciabatta instead of English muffins. I had the fruit crepes with yogurt and granola which are no longer on the menu but can be whipped-up if you ask nicely. I asked nicely as I appreciate the illusion of eating healthily.

For some reason, the food auction followed by the drop & run has become incredibly popular in restaurants like FW these days. Personally, I would prefer that my server deliver our food and pause for a minute to see if there's anything missing or if we have any requests.“

“When people ask why I go to Waffle house I say Josh. When people ask why I live my life I say Josh. This man does everything around here. He is the main figurehead for Waffle house. He is a very Jolly man (not referring Santa Clause). Waffle was very delicious. He will serve your food fast and make you happy in every way! He has a very nice trimmed beard. Thank you Josh for the extravagant experience!“

“Great service, great food! Clean, very friendly.“

“This was my first time eating here. The food was amazing and the staff was super friendly and helpful! Just an all around wonderful experience!“

“Great place! Will definitely be coming back“

“Valley Park MO location was very accommodating to a party of almost 30 outside. We were in the covered patio area, perfect for a small youth sports group. Waitresses were organized, food was fast and delicious. Highly recommend.“

“I took a high school Culinary class here on a field trip and the service was phenomenal. Dana was the best server and so sweet. There was a wide variety of delicious food to choose from and everyone left full and very happy. Will definitely return!“

“The worker “Princess” was amazing!!! She really did a wonderful job with keeping everything together. Amazing personality, very sweet, and made sure to check on everyone even when they were extra busy. If I come back the 3.5 hours I will be stopping by here again just to see her!!“

“Stopped for breakfast after a 5 hr drive. Good food and service!“

“We stopped at the Waffle House on Dorsett Rd. in Maryland Heights this morning on 9/19/23. We had a delicious breakfast & our waitress, Olivia, was outstanding! Best customer service given. This may be our new favorite place instead of a popular breakfast place on hwy 94 in St. Charles, we frequently visit.“

“Good, traditional breakfast entrees and a few healthier options. I always enjoy the garden omelette with a side of fruit. Sometimes I get it as a garden burrito instead. Both have generous proportions. The spinach and egg white bagel is tasty. Even during peak breakfast hours we never wait long for a table. The dining room is large (formerly a Chinese Buffet) with extra tables added. The staff is attentive and have a pot of coffee in hand. I appreciate them refilling my teapot with hot water. They are known for conventional breakfast entrees in a shorter amount of time. Perfect for families or larger groups at the tables all with timely service.“

“We haven’t had this good of an experience at Waffle House in a while. Every other time was good but this time was perfect. Our server Deaire was the sweetest and very attentive, and quick. The food was perfect. Everyone was working hard. We will be back!“
