43 Best Breakfast Restaurants in Austin

“This place is another delishhh spot�“

“Came here with my boyfriend for the first time to give it a try. We're both from the northeast. This was a true NY experience. Everything was delicious, the portions are large, and the people are super friendly. Highly recommend! Will definitely be back!“

“The service was fast and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious! The best breakfast my wife and I have ever had!“

“This place was excellent! I had a boozy salted caramel Iced coffee that was amazing.The cinnamon roll french toast was delicious with fresh fruit and an ooey gooey drizzle. The Floridian omelette was rich and full of flavor. The grits were so creamy, I requested some cheese on top but it honestly didn't need any. the Bacqueza Omelette was savory and smokey with just enough spice and creaminess from the cream cheese. Our server Isaiah was polite and provided us great service. The only issue we had was how rude and uninterested the hostess was.“

“I vended at a few Burlesque shows here a few years ago and loved it! Great staff and fun vibe! If I lived in Austin, I’d def be back for more shows and more coffee breaks. 😁“

“We were in a rush for the bus/airport and showed up with luggage. They were very accommodating. The food was amazing!!! We had "Baked eggs" and banana bread with pecans, caramel drizzle, bananas, whipped cream.“

“We always have an incredible experience. Everyone is so kind!“

“An egganomical, tasty, Austin experience. Been eating here since the mid 80s.“

“Absolutely love this place! It’s one of those places you actually get random cravings for. Haven’t had a meal here that wasn’t good! The staff is always pleasant and this last time visiting our waitress was just exceptional! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Wonderful experience! I had the Beet Hash, super flavorful! My friend was able to get our spot in line as we headed that way so the table was ready when we arrived. If you're looking for a modern diner feel, youve got it, bustling, red pleather(?) booths, friendly service, cold brew, and classic menu items (biscuits and gravy, bacon and eggs) and new spins (green corizo hash, fried green tomato blt. Briscuit breakfast burrito)“

“Kaitlynn waited on me this morning and was very polite and attentive. Thank you. I ordered the Farmhouse Skillet Hash and it was perfect. 👌🏾 Props to the Chef 🧑‍🍳“

“Thistle cafe was great. No frills spot for a quick bite. Seemed like they got a lot of buisness people coming in on their lunch break. I ordered 2 tacos and a latte. Tacos were great! Reasonably priced and fast!“

“I absolutely love going to First Watch. The food is amazing the atmosphere is relaxed and fun. Our server Tahmiyah was an absolute delight. She served us efficiently with a smile and a laugh. My whole family can’t wait to eat at First Watch again.“

“While our wait was about 35 minutes, it was well worth the wait. Our server was good, portions plentiful and tasty, and the coffee was good.“

“We had a great experience today!!!! They have never disappointed us. We first learned about their million dollar bacon. It’s to die for !!! The entire staff is friendly, very accommodating, and made great suggestions.“

“Amazing food and portions! Huge fluffy biscuits the gravy was amazing as well. If visiting in summer go early to beat the heat since seating is outside. Parking could be difficult depending on how busy the area is for the day. I highly recommend biscuits and groovy for any biscuits and gravy lover!“

“So good!! Easy to be there, relaxing!“

“Solid breakfast experience. The presentation was clean and thoughtful — bright eggs, crisp bacon, and toast that hit the right level of crunch. The potato cake stood out: well seasoned, golden, and paired nicely with the sauce underneath. The cheddar grits were rich and creamy, though slightly heavy. Bacon was thick-cut and perfectly crisp, sausage patty flavorful with good sear. Service was efficient and friendly, and the atmosphere matched Austin’s laid-back brunch vibe. The only critique: portion size could be slightly larger for the price, and the toast could use a touch more butter. Overall, Paperboy delivers a balanced, well-prepared breakfast that feels crafted rather than routine. Strong 8/10 — worth revisiting.“

“Linda's Rollin Cafe is my favorite place for breakfast. Everything here is delicious. I love her omelettes and breakfast potatoes. Today I had a quesadilla which was also great. It was large and the edges were crisp. She takes the time to do it right. The tortillas from the breakfast tacos are perfectly grilled.“

“Kaitlynn waited on me this morning and was very polite and attentive. Thank you. I ordered the Farmhouse Skillet Hash and it was perfect. 👌🏾 Props to the Chef 🧑‍🍳“

“great place for brunch hands down!“

“Good food . Ghetto atmosphere but I fw that tho cuz it doesn’t feel uptight like ihop“

“Fresh tasty food Friendly employees“

“Súper rico todo, me encanta💚“

“I love this place! We've been several times. The food and drinks are amazing. There's never really anyone in there when we go which is surprising. The food is consistently wonderful and chefs kiss. After we eat we always go to busy signal (attached speakeasy) for more drinks. Such a cute little vibe.“

“If you’re looking for something quick, worth the price, and delicious, this is the place to start your day before getting into any of the many activities in the city. I didn’t know what to expect coming here and I wasn’t sure if I’d get a lot of food as you typically don’t at some spots but they did not disappoint and the food tasted wonderful, was very fresh, hot and had just the right amount to provide the fullness and energy I wanted.

Thank you and I will be coming back next time I’m in Austin.

Look at the picture too, no way you can tell me that doesn’t look good.“

“Michael Best would like to send out a huge thank you to Miller and his crew!They always do a top notch job! We had a large lunch party and everything was marked and correct. We really appreciate all the work that went into making everything. Thank you again! Happy Holidays!“

“You know when I was a kid I was sick or broke my hand something like that. My mom took me here after the doctors in the back of the koalche place and. I got this yellow treat idk what it was called or anything and I remember we finished them together and. My mom said do you want more and I said yes and so. I took her card and went to the counter and this lady helped me I don't remember her really but she was really sweet and I asked for two and she gave me more then two and she shhh me bc her boss was in the back on a call and she gave me the bag and I ran back to the table where my mom was and my mom opened the bag and there was more than two and she said oh that was nice of her she gave you more than two and we ate them together. Now after like 10 years or so I thought of my mom because I had just moved out and she had thought about me also. So I invited her out and we went in and there on the sheets was the yellow treat and. We got the same yellow treats and now she's old and I'm still that kid again thanks to this place The end.“

“There are several locations! Way better than the first Kolaches I was introduced to. These Kolaches are addictive!!! I seek them out and bring them home every time I am in Tx.!“

“Our go to at ABIA. Best (truffle) fries in the world! And the Brussels are the bomb too. Kristen was an awesome bartender. Off we go into the wild blue yonder!“

“Made reservations the day of and when I got there I was notified that they didn't have anymore availability and that someone reached out to me which I didn't receive. We were asked if we wanted to go to the patio or bar. We opted to go to the bar. We ordered drinks and food and after ordering there was a cancellation and we were given the option to move to that table, we did. Food came and it was great, and then we had to leave because the next reservation for the table was there. Overall a nice place. Great ambiance just don't like the limited time spent at the tables. The lady at the door was really great at finding us a table. Loved her energy,“

“This restaurant has gone through some major changes for the better. Our omelette was full; has browns done to perfection! Service (by Joshua) was excellent. I watched the windows bring washed & floors being scrubbed (as we were the last customers before closing)!
Glad to see such a transformation from a few years back! To the new manager = Thank you! Great job!“

“The Pecan Waffles are everything I didn’t know I needed in life.“

“My bf ordered the angus bacon cheese burger and he really enjoyed the meal. The burger is small but it filled him up. I ordered breakfast for dinner. I got 2 over easy eggs with hash browns and bacon, my eggs were cooked to perfection.“

“Victor was the nicest and most attentive waiter we have ever had!!! (And I am not kidding. If I were a millionaire, I would hire this young man to work in my home or be my personal assistant)! Y'all are lucky to have someone of his caliber working here.“

“I was so impressed by this location's handling of our extremely large company holiday breakfast order. Everything was on time, easy to pickup, and setup for our party. Our team of +60 had plenty of food and plenty left over. Thank you IHOP staff! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from our team to yours!“

“Me & my partner stopped by for breakfast before our trip back to San Antonio, and had a wonderful experience at this ihop. Sabrina was our server that day and she was very sweet and made ordering feel really easy. She was very efficient getting our food to us while making sure we had everything we needed and everything was fine for us. She made us feel at home.“

“Amazing food and wonderful service. Gabriel Culiat highly recommends this IHOPS to family and friends“

“IHOP has always been a good place to eat but today a very kind lady named Mercedes made our morning even better.

The restaurant was quite busy, but she was calm, collected and in control of everything. She greeted, seated and took orders without making anyone feel rushed. She also helped solve a complicated order my younger son wanted to make.

My 3 y/o wanted to mix a few odd food items together & instead of just shutting him down and saying “sorry it’s not possible/it’s not on the menu” she gave us extra time and figured out a way to make it happen.

To be able to give that much personal attention when is slammed all around you is very impressive. Hands down, one of the best experiences I’ve had at IHOP!

Thank you Mercedes“
