50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Lansdowne

“At first looks the place is a little plain and empty. A few out of service drink coolers , a single rack with chips and cookies, and 2 PA skill machines (which I played while I waited for my food). But the place is very clean and you have an open view of the kitchen which I always appreciate as a customer. Prices were reasonable and the food preparation and presentation were notably good. Never judge a book by its cover. This place serves amazing breakfast and I will be back to try the lunch for sure.“

“Everyone who was working there was genuinely friendly and the food is amazing. I definitely recommend the wild mushroom toast.“

“Dined in for breakfast on a Friday morning with a large group. Even then, we were able to all seat together by combining nearly all the tables in the space for ourselves. If there were any more people eating in, we would have definitely had to split up, as the seating space is relatively small.

We were able to order and get our food quickly! The space has a nice fun vibe, and there's nice energetic music playing the background on an early morning. One of my pet peeves are places where the music doesn't match the mood of the weather, time of day, or type of restaurant. But they were on point here! 

All the food was fantastic. I ordered the nasi uduk--breakfast rice platter-- and a pistachio latte. One of the people in our group recently came back from a year in Indonesia and he attested to the legitimacy of the food we ate. I don't normally do well with spicy, but I ended up downing all the sambal on this plate-- delicious!“

“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“

“LISTEN UP CLOSELY PHILLY!! YOU HAVE A NEW CHEESESTEAK KING IN THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE!! DOWN HOME DINER WOW IS ALL I CAN SAY… BEST CHEESESTEAK IN PHILLY/JERSEY RITE HERE INSIDE THE THE READING TERMINAL MARKET AND THE WORKERS ARE ALL SO NICE!!!“

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

“shrimp an grits homefried“

“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.“

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

“Thx 2 Chopped, I ate here! Best decision ever, tremendous food, Banh Mi Breakfast sandwich and their Sweet Bacon Jam Redux sandwich are incredible.“

“Denise is my favorite waitress she is always friendly and makes sure I get my food exactly how I ordered. They should get rid of their metal chairs.“

“An exceptional breakfast with attentive, polite service and unbelievably affordable food. Love that there are options to just get one pancake, one slice of French toast, et cetera. Fresh pressed orange juice. Clean and immaculate everywhere you look. Couldn’t ask for a better breakfast spot!“

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

“I only get to order from here a few times a year unfortunately, but every time i get something from here it is great. Eggs are always cooked perfectly. They're variety is fantastic. Cupbop is always great and hardy! They are a family and very friendly people every time. This most recent experience was interesting. I placed an online order and went to pick it up and when i got there all the lights were out due to a black out. I saw someone else go inside and talked to the owners about my order, and they still made my order for me in pitch black! I have never had a restaurant do this, ever. Every time i can get down here and have time i will support them. Everyone else should as well.“

“Wifey got the apple cider french toast and I got the caribbean benedict. We shared the chips and salsa. We were both amazed at how incredible our food was. The staff is super friendly. Can't wait to go back!“

“First off they are the coolest most down to earth ppl the restaurant feels like home always got something good on tv to watch if you wanna sit in and eat they are definitely for the community and also one of the only to be open on sundays which is clutch lol and the food is delicious too but check them out“

Philly cheese steak and eggs - added green pepper onions and wow just flavorful think of it like an omelette

Update- I went back for waffles and a bacon eggs and cheese on white and wow it did not disappoint 😫 5.50 for each“

“Went in first time today, 3/7/26. Clean, friendly staff. Fast table service. Home fries w/onions well worth value, as well as coffee prices. Really enjoyed eggs, cheese, sausage on long roll. Overall great value. Just wish they accepted credit cards. Definitely recommend this place to locals or others on bus 46 route or L.“

“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.“

“Sooo… this is my go to breakfast place!! Fresh hot food, pleasant atmosphere (I have sat down and ate), warm professional and patient service and I can play a number or two! First time for shrimp and grits and I’m hooked!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾“

“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.“

“We loved it, in fact we returned a second time. Generous portions, wide choice and very modest prices. The service was excellent, the staff was always nice and attentive to our requests. From the outside you wouldn't give it a penny, but if you're in the area it's really worth stopping by for breakfast, you won't regret it! :)“

“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)“

“So happy that we found a new lunch spot!
I just had my first lunch from Alex's Shorties and it was amazing!
The empanadas are fabulous and the smoothies are wonderful.
Looking forward to trying the rest of the menu.“

“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.“

“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💛“

“Beautiful breakfast spot with good service and delicious food! I had veggie omelette and the sausage sandwich, also i ordered a secret (it’s not on the list and Only by Request) Indonesian Menu Chicken Mushroom Noodle to go, then i ordered the Newest beverage called Hojicha Matcha latte, it was all Wonderful. Thank you guys 👏“

“My daughter and I used to eat at Maman. My daughter is 8. However, Maman drove us out of their restaurant with low quality service and a harassment in us being there for just one hour during our meal. Then we found Nudy's cafe. What's different.... food is better, service is better, cost is lower, and overall atmosphere is way better. Each one of the waiters and waitresses can only be described as outstanding. Nobody pushed us to leave after finishing our meal. My wife has a medical obligation and this is a welcoming place for me and my little girl to hang out while we wait for that to be over. Maman would have threatened us to leave with their Supreme leader ideology. Nudy's makes us feel at home. So if you want higher priced lower quality food with poor service, go to maman. If you want, quality service, polite and outstanding employees, top notch food, and a relaxed environment....go to Nudy's.“

“The pizza is so good! Love this place!“

“My fiancé & I have been coming here for years and we both think it’s hands down the best breakfast spot in Delaware Country. It’s just such a family friendly vibe. The service is so friendly and warm and always so quick. After years coming here, I’ve never had a single complaint. Foods great, staff is great, I’d recommend this place 100000x to anyone looking for a breakfast spot in this area. As for food (everything’s good) but the Huevos rancheros is literally the best thing i’ve ever had. Same with the Eggs Benedict (and i’m critical of eggs benny anywhere I go). This place never disappoints and is better than any chain breakfast restaurant I’ve been to!“

“This food jawn makes the best hoagies in West Philly!! Very Popular place People from all over here in West Come and get there hoagies!! They be so fresh and well made!! And this place has a lot of different snacks and stuff and bottle ice tea and juices!! Born and raised here in West Philly this is a place you gotta check out!! See y'all!! God Bless🙏🏾🙏🏾“

“Had a great cheese steak hoagie here last time I was in Philadelphia. Just the right amount of onions and very fresh. I had issues with some of my Canadian cards not working to pay and I felt bad causing a bother during busy breakfast hours. However the people running this place are very friendly and it's just a pleasant place to eat.“

“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.“

“The best place to get breakfast it's fast nice clean place this the only place I'll eat breakfast at opens at a good time and the breakfast sandwiches is the best bread always fresh I always get a beef bacon egg a d cheese sandwich I always have to get 2 of them with a side of cheese grits with extra cheese the grit's always thick just perfect ?????☺️“

“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!“

“Nice quiet atmosphere with very good service, hospitality, and food.“

“I love this place so much but the last couple of times I’ve attempt to make an order, nobody has picked up and I can’t even make an order on DoorDash so I’m worried about the status of this location even though it says it’s open online nobody’s answering the phone. :( this location has been a beam of light in the neighborhood for years I would hate to see anything happened to it.“

“There’s so much to love about this little slice of heaven! The food is finger-licking good, you can dine-in or order-out, and the clear love of culture & community oozes from wall to wall!

…but that’s me…

Stop in and experience it for yourself!“

“Been come here for forever Justin use to have the music pumping but haven't seen him I hope all is well but the breakfast always on a bean very welcoming wife and husband always welcoming an greeting with a smile great homestyle breakfast“

“I love Egg white omelet but I can't get him from just any place on this visit the egg white omelet was exceptionally delicious the young lady who waited on me was quite pleasant and helpful even prepared my coffee exactly the way I like I will definitely be returning to this place“

“Truly impressive service and food. From when I walked in through the door and received a giant smile from the owners to when I paid my very reasonable bill, I was impressed. Service was excellent. Food was amazing. I asked for extra onions and it was smothered. I know Redington terminal market is right around the corner but this place is fantastic and the owners have earned my praise and business.“

“Best Bacon ever. Love this spot.“

“I love this spot! Fast, friendly service with a smile. Great for a quick bacon, egg & cheese to-go, or a relaxed dine-in vibe if you want to hang out. Feels like a classic diner with local charm. Lots of menu options—glad to support a place like this.“

“Been ordering since day one, never dissatisfied.“

“Nothing really everything is good“
