This time was amazing. The eggs were a bit disappointing, but everything else was so tasty that I didn't really think about it. I mean, the service and atmosphere were great. I think that it is rare these days to get such great service. We will be back.

I can't recommend this little restaurant enough. The atmosphere is relaxing. The food is delicious, and the coffee is perfect. Our server, Grace, is delightful and gave excellent service. Best place in Boone for breakfast!

Overrated food. It's good, but at VERY good prices. The outside chairs are rusty, and my clothes are

Such a gem. Everyone there was super friendly. The food was great, fresh fruit, and the apple butter for the toast was delicious ?

Great food! The burger I had was fantastic and my wife’s biscuits and gravy looked amazing. You get a good amount of food and I love how local so much of the menu is. We came in right at noon and had no wait to sit down! Great eating in downtown Boone.

Another charming restaurant in Boone. I got the chicken soup and a grilled cheese. The bread was from a popular local bakery.

The hostess that was working on the morning of 1/28/24 around 9:45’ish was extremely rude. She spoke to the next set of guests just as rudely as she treated us, so we decided to leave, and we went across the street to the Famous Toastery. This ended up being a great decision because the food and service was excellent. Melanie’s can have the greatest food in the world but it’s not worth the trip if the environment is hostel.
They were pretty busy so we did to go orders on our phones. They made everyone's food but missed mine. Not a big deal though because they instantly put it to the front of the line. Food wasn't bad, I thought the portions were decent and it tasted good. Just not sure if it was good enough for the price tag.

Had a great brunch, and our server, Anna, was so sweet and just had an awesome personality- she really made our experience and was just fantastic! Will definitely come back again.

We have been at Melanie’s several times while visiting Boone! This visit we had about a 45 minute wait for brunch and realized after 30 mins that others coming after us were being seated outside when it had not been offered to us which was disappointing. Our server was attentive and the food was pretty good. Lots of vegan/vegetarian options. The house made veggie burger was one of the best I’ve had. The grilled cheese sandwich and soup was on the small size as far as portions go. The tempeh scramble was yummy! Biscuits were over baked so I would opt for another bread choice next time. Overall I would recommend and go back. Prices were on the higher side for the quality of some of the entrees but there is a large menu with lots of options.
