45 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Ardmore

“This is a really nice breakfast/brunch spot. It's often packed so there may be a wait time and you should plan for once just in case but it's never too noisy for how busy it is. The staff is always lovely. The food matches the price point which isn't always the case on the Main Line. The food is consistently the same and I have found no complaints. I get what I expect every time so I'm always happy here. A small stack of pancakes is more than enough for one person. Trust me! I love getting blueberry banana pancakes with turkey sausage here. Hits the spot every time!Parking: Good luck. Be patient. Parking in the area can be a real pain. Best to go behind the building and try to find some back street parking or park in the lot down a block next to Bella Italia if you can find a spot. There's a garage nearby but I personally don't use it. I just park a couple blocks down the street.Kid-friendliness: A very kid friendly menu!!Wheelchair accessibility: It's a ramp to get into the restaurant so it should be wheelchair accessible at the front door. No stairs. Can drop off at the front door as well.“

“A tucked-away local favorite, Station Cafe has a wide variety of breakfast standards. The food is consistently good, the service very friendly and coffee refills plentiful. The only downsides are that the space is tight and there can be a wait because it's popular. The staff is very efficient without ever making customers feel as if they are being rushed through. The several varieties of eggs benedict are our favorites but are only offered on weekends. Worth the possible wait and tight seating, the atmosphere is friendly and relaxing.“

“I order takeout from here occasionally, but it's been a while since I've dined there. So I went with some people for lunch one day since we were in the area after a networking event. It wasn't crowded, but felt full with a good number of people having lunch/brunch.The staff were all pretty friendly. We were seated right after walking in and the service was a good pace throughout the entire dining experience. We all ordered something different but seemed to enjoy what we got. One person ordered one of the sandwich specials, another ordered the Mel's Chicken Sandwich and I got the Sante Fe Turkey Burger with sweet potato fries. It was very tasty, filling and served at the right temperature. I also had their Blueberry Lemonade which was really good.As always, a reliable place for a good meal. I recommend coming for brunch or course, but lunch is a good option too.“

“Super delicious french toast with hot syrup on the side. We sat at the bar and the service was very efficient. Our food came within 10 minutes of ordering and everything was fresh. Plenty of seating at the bar and a lot of tables/ booths in the dining area.“

“A great place. Been open many years. Recently on TV for their Anniversary. Sometimes crowded but they are quick and move fast. You can get breakfast sandwiches all day which is a plus. Coffee very good, another plus. Only takes cash, no big deal to me. Grew up in South Philly and local neighborhood places the same. Got scrapple, egg & cheese, bacon, egg & cheese, peppers , egg & cheese. All outstanding. Owner Bruce and his wife working up front, working, greeting and monitoring everything.“

“I love dining in at Comfort and Floyd. The service was amazing, the food was great, and the space was cozy and inviting. I recommend the pancakes, they are for anyone with a sweet tooth. If you’re looking for a lovely brunch spot, Comfort and Floyd is for you.“

“Met a friend for breakfast as Apple Walnut Cafe was halfway between where I live and Swarthmore. It's a super cute diner-like atmosphere with very friendly wait staff and an extensive menu with all kinds of eggs, french toast, pancakes, and lots more. I enjoyed my blueberry pancakes and my friend enjoyed his eggs. It's a solid choice for breakfast and I look forward to trying other items on their menu in the future!“

“When I die, I want my funeral luncheon to be crammed into Muffins, with me propped up in a corner of the back booth, with a Western omelet, hash browns, an order of bacon (or some scrapple), and fresh, hot coffee in front of me. My wife and i have eaten in many, many diners and restaurants, but Muffins is the absolute best. Fresh food, reasonable prices, very clean and a staff that actually cares about you and what they're doing. Magnificent!“

“Great breakfast/diner-ish food--I'm partial to the creamed chipped beef. Mostly takeout (few tables), all Styrofoam + plastic--goes with their mostly takeout biz..Orders seem to flow smoothly, prices are better than fair and parking is plentiful.“

“I eat breakfast from here often from grubhub most time, other times I walk since it's around the corner from me. The food is always on point 3 stars for the atmosphere cause of the location, no parking really lol. But I do recommend this place to people of don't know of it.“

“This place is adorable, and the owners are all very sweet. They give you big portions of breakfast, and everything was really good (Belgian waffle, eggs, and grits). I'll definitely go back when I'm visiting Philly again.Wheelchair accessibility: No wheelchair accessibility ?“

“You can tell they care about the customers. People kept walking in and treated everyone so well. My wife got the sausage and egg breakfast sandwich and said it was the best sandwich she’s ever had and she’s had alot. Though they forgot the spinach in my omelette she noticed without me saying and was so apologetic. One of the best services we have had and when we are back in Philly we will definitely return.Dietary restrictions: I’m on the keto diet and she was able to answer all my questions to help me figure out what I can eat.“

“This place is amazing! The wait staff is incredibly kind and the prices are totally reasonable for what you get. We ordered the Vietnamese Iced Coffee, which was a little different than what I am used to (but delicious!), the hot coco, Grilled Cheezy Sticks and Banh Mi Op La. The pickles were awesome an paired so nicely with the egg of the sandwich and the soft bread. They have a bar type seating situatoin on one side of the restaurant, a booth/chair situation on the opposite wall and then 2 seat smaller tables. They do got a lot of take out orders I noticed as well while I was there. I would absolutely go back in a heart beat.“

“Great place for a quick bite to eat. Very small on the inside. Food was quick and delicious. The staff was friendly. It is a cash only place so be prepared for that. Lots of regulars there talking like they’ve known each other for decades which is cool for a little corner spot like this. Very friendly.Vegetarian options: Hi oh can substitute for non meat itemsWheelchair accessibility: No access and very limited parking“

“I did not take any pictures but this place was perfect for a quick pick me up! It's the perfect diner food that you need on a Saturday or Sunday morning after a late night! The woman who took my order was extremely kind and the food was served quickly!“

“$$ price is expensive, but food quality,taste,and service are really good. The servers are very friendly and the food came fast. They do breakfast all day. CASH only. They have ATM inside,small feeCame early around 10AM on a Saturday and was able to avoid a line.“

“The food is phenomenal. It’s A very unsuspecting location but the food more than makes up for location. Literally so great ! The food is incredible the portions are insane! Also great staff i ordered a coffee with some modifications and the woman at the counter said “ oh you’ll like the smoked vanilla latte more” and my goodness was she the most correct ! The food is phenomenal go there order literally anything you won’t be disappointed!“

“I've been getting breakfast from this small establishment on occasions for years. Their food is good, they have smoothies & a beverage selection beyond coffee & tea. The owners are friendly & they remember some of their customers by name & how most of them like their food to be prepared. I found this to be important because I'm a picky eater & I'm particular about the presentation of my food“

“This place is a hidden Gem, so good ! I had the avocado grilled cheese AND the cheese steak rolls! Amazing, I only remembered to take a photo of my sandwich. The server didn’t even judge me that I eat everything, or that I ordered eggrolls at 9 am. ?“

“This place was mad busy and there was only one waitress who was actually doing takeout orders and table service so service was really slow. The food was okay. However, if you're going to serve grits to African Americans or even anyone who southern for that fact, you need to season your grits. They were so bland you needed a ton of salt and butter. I'm thinking I might have to go down there and give them a lesson on how to make them. Lol. Other than that, the atmosphere was great. The eggs were good and everyone with me said they enjoyed their food“

“Leave your airs at home when visiting this Delco gem.This casual eatery is a favorite of mine. I love their breakfast and I love the fact that you can get Chinese food here as well.And the food is great and you won’t leave here hungry.I challenge you to find bigger pancakes anywhere in the Philadelphia area. If you’re a coffee lover, it’s always hot and fresh.It’s family run, and the love shows here.“

“We dined outside in a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere. The service and food were excellent. We enjoyed delicious coffee and a wonderful breakfast, freshly prepared and pleasantly served.We will be visiting again very soon.Vegetarian options: Fresh avocado and delicious gluten free toastDietary restrictions: Gluten free bread was an added surpriseParking: Parking very easy“

“We stayed in Brewerytown but found this hidden gem of a family run traditional diner. This is a non tourist spot where locals grab and go in a non stop in and out. Wide menu selection we ate 3 different mornings here because it was cheap, filling, and friendly, one of the few places open early morning is a plus. Family owned and mixed race staff was SO amazing to see! We always left full and happy. First time trying scrapple was just ok, like a fried patty of a dull flavored sausage. Had the 3 meat and egg combo best value. Grits were buttery and great with splashes of hot sauce. Pancakes just like something your mom would make for breakfast. BLT again nothing mind blowingly amazing, but comforting and familiar that takes you back to traditionally good homemade quality with regular ingredients. This would be same price as a Denny's but higher quality in service and quality taste. Come visit this diner is just a great Philly experience.“

“I just moved to the area and was looking for some breakfast. This was the only spot open close to me on a Sunday. Wow. But I admit, the food was spot on. I can tell this place most likely boomed before the pandemic but the orders and pickups were still coming in. The sweetheart at the counter when I came in had a very thick accent so I couldn't understand him at first. Other than that my experience and food was great. I'll definitely be back. My daughter also loved the silver dollar pancakes with powdered sugar.“

“I do a lot of travel & visit many urban restaurants. This was the first in my travels where I didn't see NOT ONE Black employee (and this in the heart of Philly w/many Black customers)While the food & atmosphere were good, I can't in good conscious patronize an establishment that chooses to ignore the need for diversity especially in an area w/such a high concentration of Black residents.“

“Best place around, all of those negative reviews are just people who like to complain, u should tell owners not put on here , hopefully those people don’t ever come back , I eat here atleast 7 times a week , not one complaint ever in 25 years , even with old owners“

“Where to start!!! I happened to be at Upper Darby HS this morning doing a favor and decided to see what Yelp recommended near me. There were the usual (Tank and Libby's....Sabrina's....Kettle....etc), but I'm a common guy by nature and wanted to get back to my corner, neighborhood diner roots. All these fancy places starting me to talking with a Main Line accent when I grew up in New Castle.... lol.... This place showed up, and although there weren't many reviews, they were all excellent. Plus, looking at the pics, this was the vibe I was looking for. Walked in and was greeted by Patty and Marla. Within 5 minutes, they made me feel like a regular, when I had never even been there before. I ordered a cup of coffee while I checked out the menu. I NEVER would've expected such a great cup of coffee from a corner spot. It was worthy of La Colombe. For breakfast I decided to have the 2XL egg mixed grill. This included...... get this..... two scrambled eggs (i added cheese), home fries (I added peppers and onions), two slices of thick slab bacon, two pieces of sausage, two slices of ham, and one piece of scrapple and toast on the side....... All this...... for only $11.95. While I was eating this hearty, delicious meal, in walks the owner, Jason. Young man is doing the damn thing. Owns this diner and the mechanics shop across the street. Very personable. So many of our young black men are out there doing positive things like this and you don't hear about it. I'll tell you this. I live 40 minutes from here but I will support and promise to have my a** in one of those chairs at least once a month.“

“I absolutely LOVE this place! I am a Vegetarian and I was impressed that they actually have very good Vegetarian options. Though I have only been there three times; but I must ADMIT, each time was a JOY and I will DEFINITELY return back and I HIGHLY recommend this Place! TOP NOTCH!Vegetarian options: Their veggie burgers are ON POINT! Loved it!“

“We were having a birthday breakfast for my girlfriend, and had the pleasure of having Basil as our server. He was absolutely AWESOME. As we are super particular about food, Basil helped us with suggestions on the menu, was absolutely hilarious, so helpful and made our entire day! She and I have both been in the customer service field for a very long time, and he again was just super great. Lemon ! Ricotta are phenomenal tooKid-friendliness: I would take my 12 yr old here no prob, the menu is very kid friendly even outside the kids menu“

“Affordable food at a great price with consistent service. I am never disappointed when I order from here and it's always busy! The owners are very nice and always make me feel welcome. Rey it for yourself and I don't think you would be disappointed.“

“First time eating Brunch in this restaurant yesterday. Not too busy. Assigned a table for two. Floor directly under my seat was wet from spilled coffee so I asked a server to wipe it which she did half heartedly and not thoroughly. Took longer for her to attend to us despite the not so busy time. Luckily another very pleasant server was kind enough to step in and promptly served us with a beautiful smile and attitude.Food was great! Original server didn’t bother to check back in with us if we needed anything else like, um, water?Came time to pay bill in front and the amount was just about right. Paid the 20 percent tip somewhat reluctantly (I think that was the minimum if I recall) and was told by the somewhat frosty and disengaged front person that the card came through only for the tip(??). Had to swipe card for second time making sure to ask lady I don’t have to tip again. Made me feel it was my fault, no apologies or anything.I would give this place 5 stars except for the front desk reception(not as welcoming as other places) and our first inattentive server. The other server who helped out was great. Food more than made up for this so, 4 stars. I would eat here again but maybe try a different location.“

“One of the very few places around where you can get food at a reasonable price. Unlike many they haven't raised their prices to an over excessive amount. Which is why they are getting the business. Other businesses may want to copy what they are doing instead of being greedy and over charging customers for food that should remain at a reasonable price for business.“

“Such a super cute, local family owned business! With breakfast being my first favorite type of food, I decided to give them a try based off of a recommendation from a friend. I'm very glad I did.I called in a pickup order on a snowy Saturday morning. Yes, I know... breakfast is better eaten as soon as it's prepared. A&A is small; however, they do offer a dine in option.I told Michelle, pretty lady upfront with pink (my fave color) hair, I've lived here all my life and have driven by them a thousand times but it's a New Year and I finally made it! I usually check Yelp first for recommendations and they weren't there which is how I overlooked them. They do have very good Google reviews though.What I ordered:The Pork Grand Slam (they offer a turkey and beef option as well) it comes with sausage, 2 strips of bacon, eggs, your choice of grits or home fries and pancakes.I also requested an order of French Toast but they made waffles instead. It wasn't a big deal and the waffles were very good.Michelle advised they are adding smoothies and grab and go options to their menu for the morning commuters or anyone that wants a quick breakfast fix.The service was super friendly, the aesthetic is a whole Philly vibe, everything I ordered was flavorful and the cherry on top is... Their prices!!Please stop in and treat yourself!Cheers! ?“

“A great luncheonette in South Philly with that old school feeling. Miss eating at the counter but such is the life in the world of Covid. The staff is always nice and the food is always good. Went for breakfast sandwiches today and wasn't disappointed!“

“Champsssss is where it's at! Our whole office - Oxford Village loved ordering from Champs on the regular. I miss my BLT w/ egg and a fruit drink. They always answered the phone with so much love and energy and they would know it was us calling. Unfortunately we all eventually relocated but champs is truly missed.-Thank you so much for not just the delicious food but the expierence!“

“Love this little neighborhood spot. Liz took our order and is a a total sweetheart-- and the world needs more people with her smile :) my partner loved his corn beef hash, the food was amazing, cooked perfectly, good home cooking with huge portions, and the prices are great. We will definitely eat here when we want a hearty homecooked breakfast again!“

“Great prices and more than generous portions on all of the classic breakfast and lunch food. Burgers are simply amazing, and they are huge! You can't beat breakfast as far as pricing and portions. This is a small place where people have been going for years and years. It ain't fancy, but it hits the mark every time.“

“Karla’s food was absolutely delicious! I recently had a party and my guests were asking where I had gotten the food from. I was so pleased with the overall experience and love supporting small businesses. I will only use Karla’s Kitchen for now on!“

“We (2) ate here on a Tuesday morning. We had no wait for a table. The service was very attentive and friendly. We ordered the Peach Cobbler French Toast, the Cinnamon Bun French Toast and a side order of bacon. Our server asked what our crispness preference for the bacon was, which I've never been asked before and it was served exactly as requested. The portions are massive and very flavorful and fresh. It is cash only, which we knew going in. Will definitely be returning to try more.“

“First time going last week and the breakfast of pancakes, scrambled eggs with turkey pattie sausage did .ore than hit the target. It was all I imagined! For now this will be my spot to order take-out breakfast. There is no dining in and few ill sorted chairs will you wait for your order. They don't take long and the place is very clean, also the staff is mannerly!“

“The owner is such a nice guy and this business has great food and great service i have known this man for over 40 years when he use to be at 60th Market in west philly the food is still the same good as always one of the few gems left in Philadelphia from yesteryear that never changed i go there at least once or twice a week Tony is a great guy and so is his business Tony Boys I give it 5 stars !“

“Really good breakfast sandwich! Typical corner store vibes with a good selection of snacks and drinks, and an atm. Service was friendly, and they offer a wide range of payment options including cash, card and Apple Pay. Definitely will be frequenting for breakfast, and I'd like to try their hoagies in the future as well“

“Always a pleasure seeing Ms. LINDA(the owner) when I dine in or take out. Ive been eating here for over 12yrs. The food is great and ricing are always reasonable. I even had her add a specific sandwhich to rhe menu. A breakfast sandwhich on frenchtoast bread(ex:turkey bacon egg and cheese on potatoe french toast) amazing!!!!! Fresh!!!!! And prepared with love by Al and Ray. Love J&S breakfast ? ?“

“I absolutely love this place and wish I had tried it sooner after having lived two blocks away for 13 years now. Friendly accommodating staff, clean nice place, good affordable food. This is my go to for breakfast all day. Cash discount is always appreciated.“

“This place is classic south philly. The Sausage egg and cheese was cheap and delicious. The bun was both sturdy and yet soft. The eggs were fresh fried. And the sausage was salty and fatty and delicious as it should be.The coffee was only mediocre. But this ain't a place for hipster coffee snobs like me.“
