SAVE YOUR MONEY! What a horrible experience! I politely asked the woman that took my order to please make my egg white omelet with real egg whites and not container egg whites. There was a language barrier so she called over a tall blonde woman which I believe was the owner. I asked, “do you use real egg whites or are they from a container?” She looked at me like I had five heads and obnoxiously said it is carton egg whites but if you must have real egg whites, then just tell your server my server was the woman that couldn’t understand my request in the first place. Fast forward… my omelet gets hand delivered by the tall blonde woman. She puts the plate down in front of me and says very sarcastically “here’s your real egg whites”. That’s not even then the worst part. The worst part is the omelet was so thin. She must have used two eggs whites and filled it with peppers and onions! $20 for a horrible omelet and even worse service. Save your money and stay far away from this place. I will never dine there again

$12 for a mediocre bacon egg and cheese on a roll. They didn’t even toast the bread. I regret wasting $12 on a sub par sandwich, disgraceful

Sunday morning, I took a quick walk and had a nostalgic breakfast on the way home. Freshly made omelets, toast, and coffee☕️The small shop is also busy from the morning. There is terrace seating, and the restaurant caters to a wide range of age groups. Today's morning menu. Lunch is also good!

Kid-friendliness: Children's chair available

Poppy's a rare preservation of the American diner. Here, you'll find breakfast classics (home fries and crispy bacon are my favorite), neighbors greeting eachother good morning, and the owner who originally opened the cafe in 1984 still waiting tables.If you're coming through Rye, don't miss Poppy's

Oh my, lots to say about this place. I sat at the bar and got asked what I wanted to eat literally 5 times after having my menu for 2 minutes. I know they want to rush people out, but give me a chance to look at the menu! Also, the prices are a bit ridiculous.. $20 for an omelet?! Then, I started to look around and was actually disturbed with what I saw. I don’t know how this place is still in business! It’s absolutely disgusting!! Not one of the 5 workers there wore gloves and they touched ALL the food with their bare hands, and I not once saw any of them wash their hands. Then, I noticed they just have a bucket of raw bacon sitting by the grill, not covered or anything. The one woman grabbed a bunch of pieces to put them on the grill, dropped a few pieces on the stove area, and threw it back in the bucket. And again, didn’t wash her hands afterwards. Then, I noticed that they cook EVERYTHING right next to each other on the grill. We got a blueberry muffin, the woman cut it and put it on the grill, right in bacon grease from the bacon she was cooking next to it, then she squished it down with her barehands, and picked it up to put on a plate and give it to us. She then made the eggs, sausage, bacon and chocolate chip pancakes all together. They also used the same spatula to flip the sausage, then flip the eggs, then flip the bacon, then flip the pancakes. If you’re vegetarian, STEAR CLEAR of this place! Pictures attached. Just beyond disgusting and this place must have so many violations!

Vegetarian options: If you’re a vegetarian, do not eat here. They cook everything together on the same uncleaned grill. So disgusting.

Food was good, but the flies outweighed the ambience. When asked about the flies, the waitress said she told the manager, but he had nothing to do. Not even a flyswatter or some bug spray. What a waste.

Make sure you arrive hungry. The portions are large, fresh and satisfying.The seating area is tight but they do have high chairs for young kids.
