Omelets were phenomenal, service was terrific, prices fair, and the owner/manager a real character. If you're in search of a quaint and relaxing spot to grab brunch, look no further.

Waffle ($16), Two Eggs Sandwich ($11), and Risotto Al Funghi ($20) along with some coffee and lemonade is what we got. Were seated right away and the place was busy at 2 pm on a Sunday.
Slight UWS charm to it, quick service (food arrives within 20-mins), and extremely dated interiors that didn't bother us at all. Reasonably priced though, which earns it a star! Will return!
Vegetarian options: A few decent options for Veggos!

I visit Edgars Cafe a lot. The coffee is wonderful and their cake selection is spot on. The staff are attentive and charming. I enjoy every time I go. It has european charm mixed with the Edgar Allan Poe theme that goes back to their roots. The was a Stiller's favorite.
