50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Bryn Mawr

“Greeted with great energy from staff right away. We had to wait about 15 minutes for a table. The server came right away. The food came out quick. Everything tasted great! The staff checked on us frequently to make sure everything was good. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.“

“Blown away! Super kind and friendly people and the food was FAN-freaking-TASTIC! Eggs over home fries is a nice touch. Got a side of ketchup and used it for one bite. It was soo good that the ketchup took away from it! And I'm a ketchup guy lol
Stop by and grab breakfast here ASAP! You'll thank me later!“

“This is a relatively new brunch place in South Philly. Well it says brunch place but it is definitely good for lunch and dinner as well.

I'm getting the same vibe as brunch places back in Indonesia here.

I ordered Nasi Uduk and Kopi Gula Aren. Both stays true to the authentic recipe and portion is generous.

Will definitely go back when I'm back in South Philly.“

“First Watch is one of our go-to places for breakfast. The food is usually five star. I had the traditional breakfast eggs scrambled, bacon, potatoes, and toast. The eggs were a bit tasteless it seemed because they used little or no salt. The potatos were salted and tasted fine. The bread was also a little bland since I ordered it without the usual heaps of butter. I'm a tea drinker and the selection is variable. This time there was enough non-earl grey and herbal tea to have two full cups of English breakfast. The tea situation is always dicey, often only decaf black and herbal with one Earl Grey. It would also be great if they ditched the stevia for either one or both of the chemical sweeteners, yellow or pink would do.

It's still a good breakfast place, just could be better with a little more salt and better sweetener options.“

“Today I stopped at The Hungry A. I have driven buy there many times. As I walked in the owners and people in there all greeted me like they know me. I had a coffee and it was one of the best I ever had. The breakfast sandwich was delicious. I will be be back. But what really got to me I walk with a cane and one of the girls there saw I was having a hard time she came around the counter and took what I was carrying and helped me to my car. Today there are not many people that are kind as she was. It made me know that there is still kind people in this world. If every would take the time to be kind to someone just once maybe it could be a start to make this world just a little better“

“Hands down this is the best pretzel bun I have ever had.“

“Great friendly service, reasonable prices and good food!“

“Great food...friendly staff...cozy atmosphere“

“Great place to get a hot homemade meal without breaking the bank. Service is friendly what more can you ask for“

“Nick - excellent service“

“Norman’s Grill is truly a hidden gem in Philly! The food tastes like it was made with love — real, comforting, home-cooked meals that hit the spot every single time. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned.

The staff is incredibly polite, welcoming, and attentive, which makes the whole experience even better. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers.

If you’re looking for amazing home-style cooking and a warm, friendly atmosphere, this is the place. Don’t sleep on this spot — it’s a true treasure tucked away in the city!“

“Four of us went for brunch today ~ not one complaint. Loved our server and the food was delicious.“

“I absolutely love their breakfast! I've been coming here for well over 10 years. The staff is friendly, the service is fast. I'm a scrapple guy. They do the diner cut, crunchy outside and a fully cooked soft inside. Just, make sure to bring cash and you will not regret coming here. Keep up the great work, my friends.“

“The breakfast at God Day Deli in Philadelphia was fantastic! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care. The portions were generous, the food came out quickly, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. A great spot for a delicious and satisfying breakfast in Philadelphia. Highly recommended!“

“Delicious coffee and great food!“

“Found this place in passing. My friend wanted a bacon egg and cheese on a Kaiser roll. I saw while she was making and wrapping it and it looked hearty! I didn't get a picture because it was devoured 🤣😂 or inhaled but that speaks for itself. I will be going back and will remember to take a picture because eating! Thank you!!“

“Food was delicious although my omelette was made with the wrong ingredient. The manager offered to make the correct one but everyone at our table had their food already. Server could use some polishing on customer service skills. Not the friendliest.“

“I went to The Coffee Station again for breakfast on Sunday and had a great experience. The food was good, but what really stood out was our waitress, Denise. She’s like an old-time waitress in the best way—friendly, attentive, and she makes you feel truly appreciated. She goes above and beyond and makes the whole place feel like home. I don’t go out very often these days because of the economy, but I make it a priority to come here when Denise is working. She turns an ordinary meal into an experience worth going out for.“

“Love trying out new Diners and "First Watch" has not disappointed me yet! Don't think they could, actually. My 2nd visit, this morning, They prepared a Scrambled egg w/Cheese & Spinach, Chicken sausage patty, topped with sliced Avocado on toasted multi-grain bread. Can you say yummmm😋👍🏽🌞 oh, and I left with their "Watermelon, Pineapple, Lime and Mint Refreshing Drink...Cool and delicious💛“

“Easily in the top two for French toast! The other place is in Royersford. Now living in Florida, can’t get a decent French toast. Miss this place!“

“Love the Breakfast“

“Great environment. Have been a regular here for over 6 years. Familiar family owned business that has community relationship ties, good service, exquisite food with and friendly clean atmosphere. So comfortable, they know my order by name. Great part to start my workday. The waffle hit different. 🤷‍♂“

“Found this place about a month ago, and realized it is my local walk to spot! And they've been around for over 30 years! Could not be happier! Been there twice so far, quick and friendly service. The food, simply amazing! I like grits, but often they're either too runny or too thick...finding those perfect goldilock grits is difficult... Train stops grits are just right! Truly the Goldilocks of grits! Awesome place all around, I highly recommend and will definitely be back soon.“

“I can not recommend this restaurant enough. I work super late nights.Tbh knowing I can order this food when I get off has gotten me through several shifts. The food is extremely consistent and amazing everytime. You’re missing out if you don’t eat here“

“Great waitress Gina, not all as nice. She makes it worth the ride from Philly. Keep up the good work.“

“Place is absolutely slept on! Easy to park or even walk to and the food is incredible. It looks like a random hole in the wall but the food is anything but. Everything is made to order, incredibly fresh and so tasty. Employees are very kind and make customizing easy too. Cannot wait to go again! As you can see from menu photo, they’re also super affordable.“

“It’s an amazing vibe . The food is very tasty as well“

“Have you experienced the new Summer menu yet? Maybe you tried this restaurant on a busy Saturday morning and the long wait for a table then is preventing you from exploring the menu now? This month is a perfect time to visit again - many local customers are off from school, or off on vacation. So wait times are short, while the summer first watch menu is awesome. Enjoy! (It’s always a good idea to use the first watch app to check in, just in case everyone else has also decided this is the perfect time to visit)“

“Karla catered a baby shower for us and the food was absolutely delicious and was presented beautifully!! Everyone kept saying how much they loved it! Karla is wonderful to work with. She has a true gift and I highly recommend her! Natalie brought and set up the food and was our server. She was wonderful!“

“Recently, was looking for a breakfast spot with grits. The grits were creamy and delicious even after sitting awaiting for me to pick up my food. My main dish was chicken and waffles. Lee's Belgian waffle came with a side of powdered sugar to sprinkle atop your buttered and syrup covered waffles. I savored every sweet, semi- cake bite.“

“Great breakfast. Lots of choices. Friendly staff. Crispy hashbrowns, good cappuccino, and eggs with avocado. Hubby tried the carrot cake french toast. He said it was good with not an overwhelming flavor of carrot cake. One note; Small tables & big plates don’t work well, so if there’s more than two people get a booth. Will be returning!“

“Mrs. Monique provided amazing customer service at Wonder. She was welcoming, professional, and genuinely kind from start to finish. Her positive attitude and attention to customers made the experience stand out, and it’s clear she takes pride in her work. Employees like Mrs. Monique are the reason customers keep coming back she is a true pleasure to the Wonder experience.“

“I read all the positive reviews and had to check it out for myself. I have always found it difficult to find something as simple as a good breakfast place. But this time i found it! The second I walked in, I was impressed. The hostess greeted me immediately and with a smile. I asked if I should order now and she smiled and explained that she'd take my order and she'll bring it to me. It was very pleasant. The store itself is clean and bright. I ordered two eggs medium, sausage patties,home fries with peppers and onions, rye toast with a little butter and a medium coffee. Everything was made exactly as I ordered it. The portions were generous and the coffee was great. Thirteen bucks for all that. Perfect. I'll be back.“

“I have lived in Havertown my whole life, and I had never been here before. I’m so glad I finally gave it a try. I tend to get the chicken salad when I eat out, and I would rate their chicken salad sandwich a 9+ out of 10! Great flavor and consistency plus the sandwich was packed and overflowing, without being messy. I had to take half home with me. One of the best I’ve ever had! The service was very good, the interior was clean and bright, and prices were on par with most other places. I will definitely be going here again instead of Nudy’s to try some of their other lunch and breakfast items.“

“Nothing really everything is good“

“Bread & Butter Philly is my wife’s and my absolute favorite breakfast spot! We order from here every weekend, especially on Sundays, and the food and customer service never disappoint. The staff is always so friendly, and it’s always nice to see Jenny and the team each week. The food is consistently delicious, and it’s always hard to choose between the breakfast platter and breakfast burritos because everything is always on point! Definitely one of the best breakfast spots in Philly, where you’re always greeted with a smile! Highly recommend Bread & Butter Philly!“

“Excelentes desayunos y buenos precios“

“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!“

“First time enjoying Trio! Everything was delicious! They didn't skimp on the shrimp! The portion size is perfect! The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars. Is the cheese on my grits wasn't melted. I like my cheese in my food not on top. I don't know if the butter on the side was supposed be there? Thank you, I needed it for my toast!“

“Best Bacon ever. Love this spot.“

“Food is good! If you eat in house 15% gratuity is added no matter if it's 1 person or 10. Unless you ask for sides of jelly you get charged for jelly too, cups of water if in a Togo cup..any way they can make another 10cents they will. They have decent food though and Everything is fresh annnd They do do a lot of business, So to me that speaks for itself. 15-20 per a person that's a platter.“

“my favorite local breakfast place, and the best chicken noodle soup in this region. most of the time I’m busy and order online and the food is always really good. It’s my biggest comfort after late night work.
I took a walk to the place recently and get to chit chat a bit while waiting for my food. people are so friendly, and I can feel there is a bond between the customers and the place.“

“Delicious healthy various smoothies!! Also, delicious sweets.“

“Friendly Service, Awesome Food., Service can be a little slow, I strongly reccomend calling your order in., Or going early in the AM between 7:00am and 9:00am.“

“Really lovely spot in a good location, the vibe inside and out are great, all of the staff are extremely friendly and caring. The food and drinks are almost always really good. My main issue is the lack of consistency, it seems like different baristas and cooks have their own ways of making things, which is fine, but I personally feel consistency is super important in food service.“

“While it's vibe feels like a cramped diner you can't actually eat in, I mean that in the best possible way. I visited Philly to spend a week with my sister, and despite how elbow to elbow you might feel ordering and waiting for your food, the lady behind the counter who I can only assume owns the place makes you feel right at home. I probably reeked of tourist, and all the same, my order was taken and I felt more than comfortable being able to chat back and forth with my sister, her partner, and the order taker without feeling even remotely across the country. Then there was the food... I only had breakfast there twice, and I'm only disappointed I couldn't have had every breakfast there. The home fries were easily some of the best I've ever had, with a perfect crisp to the outside while being nice and creamy in the center, and the onions and peppers only added some extra texture and flavor. The pork sausage omelette was about all I could ever ask for from a diner style omelette. I'm hoping to visit again next year, and I know for certain I'll be wanting to start the next morning here. Keep being awesome! Much love from Oregon.“

“As my kids would say, “their food was bussin” ??everything was good especially the eggs. And thts very important. ?French toast with the butter and syrup was crack! ?You’ll slap ur momma okay???And sis blessed my French toast and my daughters pancakes with the powder sugar…my gawd?? she made our morning?. Were in here scraping the bottom of the platter honey!!!! Also great customer services, even when I wasn’t buying anything. The beautiful yung lady with the short cut helped me out. I could not have thanked her enough. I’ll be back for sure.“

“I love the new compliance set up. Tht are open for take out and they still have the same quality food (fresh), happy demeanor considering our current pandemic, and they are clean 8nside out as usual. The owner is very nice and the waitresses are a delight. I too.them.mor than the Applebee's staff.??“
