Food was amazing and alexis gave great service! Was fast too! Would definitely come back again!

If you have a big appetite, this scratch kitchen restaurant is for you ! Located at the countryside mall, parking was easy and I saved time by joining the waitlist on Yelp! Our server , Karlyn was amazing and had such great energy. We chatted about food , yelp and travel and her and my little one chatted about toys and coffee lol. I ordered a caramel cappuccino for my breakfast along with the country fried steak and eggs, home potatoes and biscuit and holy moly I didn't even make a dent ! Portions are huge . My little one had the kid jr French toast breakfast with a scrambled egg and extra bacon and said it was delicious. Service here is truly amazing and everyone was polite and conversed. Because of my Yelp check in , I received a free cookie which was so good we ended up taking a few back to the hotel for later. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and do have an all day menu as well as a smaller portions menu. We are definitely coming back tomorrow for breakfast again but I'll be picking for the smaller menu lol. read more

We saw that they had a pretty extensive gluten-free menu, so we decided to give this place a try. Overall, it was good. Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable about the gluten-free options, and explained the precautions they take to avoid cross-contamination. She answered all of my questions, and if she wasn't sure about something, she went and found out, which I really appreciated. I had the gluten-free fish and chips, and they were good. The batter didn't stick to the fish very well, but the flavor was still good. My daughter had the gluten-free chicken tenders. They were a little dark, I'd even say almost burnt but she still ate them. She also got the gluten-free French toast for dessert, which we absolutely loved. My husband ordered the chicken salad and said it was delicious. Overall, we had a good experience here. read more

We have been to this cute restaurant a few times now and the charm, service and of course the food keeps bringing us back. And if you need it, they have some of the best gluten free options I've had. Thanks Paige! read more

I had zero choice but to try a restaurant with the name BACON in it :) Located at Countryside Mall, this place has entrance from inside or outside the mall. Amazin because if it's a meal only day then there is a parking lot right there in front which you can head basically straight in. Even has an outdoor patio! Our first visit there we opted to stick to their all day breakfast menu, even though it was lunch hour. So glad we did. First off we were sat rather quickly and checked in regularly by our waitress. Our food came out in decent time, since it was a lunch rush in a Saturday we get that it wouldn't come out so fast. My hubby and I were delighted with our orders. I had the bacon stuffed pancakes and hunny has the bacon and sausage tower pancakes. My stuffed pancake may not have really been "stuffed" but it was sure delicious and had plenty of real basin bits throughout. I will definitely order that again any day! My husband's bacons and sausage tower wasn't too high (see my pics) but was very filling! And tasty too. We had leftovers for sure. This place has a bar area, TVs and is good for breakfast lunch or dinner. Anytime of the day! Love that. So to answer the magic question, yes, we had a great experience with the food and ambiance and are curious now about their burgers. Can't wait to return! read more

In the last two weeks, we've eaten here twice once for brunch and once for an early dinner. The food is actually very good. I love their little bacon, maple cream puffs. I think the first time I had the lumberjack special the second time I had their breakfast burger, which is a bacon bomb waiting to happen. And we had a small stack of the chicken waffle which the presentation is very cool. For mall restaurant the prices are definitely reasonably affordable for the amount of food you get. The service is pretty good as well. I would recommend it if you're in the area. They do serve breakfast all day. read more

Our server, Katie was very knowledgeable about my food allergies (gluten and dairy) and took extra precaution. Food was delicious and everyone at the table enjoyed. read more

Initially I thought this was a chain restaurant because it was attached to the mall. This is the only location in Clearwater. We had to try it with the name bacon in the title. It was a decent sized restaurant. The setting was comfortable. They have bathrooms in the back corner instead of having to go through the mall to find one. The servers wore shirts with catchy phrases on them. The waitresses were very friendly. The one lady that helped us was new, and the other waitress who was helping her was great. Her shirt said "Don't go bacon my heart " others had different slogans. They have a great selection for gluten free options. We enjoyed the food here. Looking forward to the next time we come here. I will try something different. read more

We visited Bacon Street Diner at Countryside Mall with a party of six on a busy Saturday afternoon and were seated in about 15 minutes, which was impressive considering how busy it was. The service was friendly and the timing between plates was consistent, even with a full dining room. What we ordered: The special of the day was an open-faced turkey sandwich served with mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, carrots and green beans. It was a true comfort food plate. The turkey was tender, the gravy rich and everything tasted homemade. It felt like Thanksgiving dinner in the best way. The 3-egg omelette with spinach, sausage and feta was fresh and flavorful and cooked well. The only thing to note is that add-ons are $1.50 each, so the price can add up quickly depending on what you choose. The fish and chips with dill sauce were crispy and well seasoned. The portion was generous and the dill sauce paired perfectly. The corned beef and hash skillet was hearty, savory and full of flavor. A great choice if you love diner style breakfast dishes. We also ordered a classic cheeseburger and fries, which was simple, satisfying and cooked the way we asked. The kids chicken strips and fries were crispy and fresh, and a definite hit. Before leaving, we walked by the dessert case and it absolutely stopped us in our tracks. Pies, cream puffs and house-made desserts that looked incredible. We were way too full to try one this time, but they will definitely be the reason we return. Overall, great food, generous portions, friendly service and a dessert case that demands a second visit. We'll definitely be back, especially to finally try a slice of pie or a cream puff. read more

Came here for a late brunch today around 1:30pm, party of 4. Was about a 15 min wait. I got the mini breakfast with French toast - for less than $12 you can get 2 eggs, a sausage, a bacon, and a French toast - really a steal in my book! Also got an apple juice. Pros: - they text you when your table is ready so you can walk around the mall area while waiting - easy parking lot in the mall - pretty quick service, our waiter Michael was friendly and competent - you can buy pie too! We got 2 pies for about $19 - they look small but are actually filling Cons: - the round booth was a little uncomfortable, but not a dealbreaker. Pretty solid breakfast - the mini breakfast was the perfect size for me when I wasn't starving. Their potatoes were also very well seasoned but not too salty! read more

Never had a bad meal here! So many items are clearly made fresh, in-house. They can get busy so I recommend checking in online before you go. When they are packed it can be a bit noisy. I only mention that so you don't expect intimate conversation. One of my all time favorite breakfast spots. I want to with my way through the entire menu. read more

What a DELICIOUS spot for BRUNCH!! Located In the outskirts of the Country Side Mall, this is a must-to if you're in the area. Checked in online, and we were seated right away, and started with $2 dollar flavored mimosas. It's very modern, clean, and well lit inside. Customer service is great and you can tell that the employees, enjoy their jobs. I had the 1/2 Bacon Chicken Waffle Tower w/Maple Bacon Cream Puff on the top! Sooooo good, and great combo of flavors of savory/sweet and honestly the best bacon I have ever had at a place. The Maple Bacon is caramelize, which gives it a great texture and flavor! My wife had the Apple Cinnamon French Toast! It has, powdered sugar, warm cinnamon apples and bacon bits sprinkled on top of the whip cream, I had a bite and was blown away! Service is quick, and the location is great, if you just want to look around the mall after. What an amazing brunch! Like my boy Arnold said.."I'll be back" read more

Stopped here before a spring training game in Dunedin on the recommendation of a co worker. This place hits the mark. It's odd it's attached to the mall of all places but don't discount this place for that. The food was great, the chicken and waffles were great. The service is nice, the restaurant was clean and not loud to have a conversation. Sunday morning brunch visit. Mimosas are great read more

Fun spot that was able to accommodate 15 people on a whim. They put us by the bathroom even though the restaurant was empty but that's ok. We had loud kids so that worked out. Everything was huge portions. Meatloaf was good and flavored. My Salisbury steak was huge but had no love seasoned on it.... Tasted more like hospital food where you have to add the salt and pepper. They are a scratch kitchen so everything is made in house so that's a plus. read more

I got the chicken fried chicken with eggs, and it was delicious! I didn't realize it came with 2 monster slices of toast and 2 of the biggest pancakes I've ever seen. The value for the money was insane. Pancakes weren't my favorite. I think because they were so thick, they weren't super fluffy, but all in all will definitely be back! read more

Found this place bc we needed a bloody Mary and we were going to see a movie. This place is in the mall with the movie theater so it worked out perfect. Service was great.

This place is located on the backside of the mall which google maps wanted me to park and walk thru the mall to get to it even while it has exterior access doors. When my brother and me got here (Oct 25th 1130am) most staff was dressed up in halloween costumes which was pretty cool and had to be super hard for them to do. Some really got into it and their extensive costumes. The lady dressed up as Maleficent even had wings on which was really cool and i voted for her in their contest! We sat at the bar proper although the business was not too busy but still pretty bustling with activity. The food was alright. Nothing to rant and rave about but nothing to complain about either. Although my brother did think there would be more bacon themed entrees. I didnt get a chance but the desserts in the display DID look awesome so i will probably be back to try out a few of those. read more

Bacon Street Diner - Food - Country Benedict ( really biscuits, gravy, sausage, bacon and crispy home fries ) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

So glad I visited! First of all our server, Tracey, was phenomenal! She was busy with other tables when we first sat down, but took the time to briefly stop by to let us know she'd be right with us. Throughout our meal she checked on us regularly, getting us more drinks, extra syrup, etc. Makes a huge difference in the dining experience. Also, she was super personable, laughing and chatting with us a bit. My party of three really liked her. Too bad we're from out of town or we'd be regulars. Two of us got the breakfast tower with pancakes. The pancakes were surprisingly light. The sausage links could have been cooked/crisped a little more, but that's a preference thing. I love eating at non corporate restaurants and this one is a gem. If I make it back to the area, I will definitely stop in. Great food. Stellar service. read more

Absolutely the best diner ever! Walking in the staff is super friendly and you are greeted by a case filled with pastries baked on premises. You don't feel like you're in a mall at this awesome storefront. Everything was fantastic beginning with the bacon infused Bloody Marys. I had to buy a couple bottles of the mix to take home. Huge fluffy pancakes. Awesome salads. Wonderful lox and bagels. Chicken fried chicken perfectly cooked with bacon gravy. You should be sure to plan breakfast or lunch at this awesome restaurant. read more

I took my daughter and son-in-law here on a Sunday about 11:15 AM. We had to wait for a table but then ended up at the bar which is first come first serve. There was three or four people behind the bar counter, but service was spotty. It was busy so there is that. They have an extensive menu for both breakfast and lunch items. I like that they have a smaller menu that's a bit more affordable with smaller portions. All of our orders were correct however, my daughter wished that her egg whites had been a little more done since she had asked for that. The crispy chicken bowl was very tasty. My son-in-law really enjoyed his sausage links. The French toast and pancakes were some of the fluffiest I have seen in a while. I was surprised that there was a $3.49 up charge to add chocolate chips to my daughter's pancakes. Pancakes were already included as part of her breakfast. She simply wanted chocolate chips added. The maple bacon cream puff that comes with the pancake and French toast dish was amazing! My daughter didn't want hers and I happily gave it a taste test and at $.89 a piece, I thought about getting several more however I had to step away because I have Girl Scout cookies at home. This is a little far from our normal area. We were up this way looking at a car dealership. It is part of the mall which allows a great amount of parking. It's right at the entry door near the Red Robin. So you do not have to walk through the countryside mall to get to it. If I was in this area again, I'd certainly give another consideration. Enjoy! read more

I had been wanting to try this spot based on previous Yelp reviews and finally found the time - They are located in the Countyside Mall and while the restaurant itself is easily accessible from the outside, the parking is horrendous! We finally found something a good walking distance away and were seated right away. I ordered the 1/2 BOLT (bacon, onion, lettuce, tomato) & 1/2 house salad. I didn't understand the need for the onion and removed it. Lots of bacon, though...the salad was not good, the lettuce was a bit wilted and there were some brown bits. DH ordered the fish sandwich with a cup of the tomato bisque. The sandwich was good, albeit he ordered grilled and it came fried, the "soup" on the other hand, was just gross! It was t soup at all, it had the consistency of spaghetti sauce and while I refused to taste it, DH said it tasted like marinara. We mentioned the soup to our server and she took it off the bill, then the manager came over and apologized. I believe the other reviews, but this was a 3 star experience for us and we won't be back. read more

First time eating here. Our server (Zeke?) was great, he knows his stuff and is friendly too. Anyway, I did the lumberjack and the wife did chicken and waffles. Both were super yummy. The wife also ordered a side of the Canadian bacon which went well with my biscuit if I do say so myself. They serve breakfast all day so if you like breakfast any time, any day then you will love this place. Inside is comfortable and there are several TV's with your favorite games on so you can still eat and not miss your game. Overall I loved that the food was fresh made from scratch. read more

This diner is a fever dream for those that went through (or are still living) the bacon obsessed era of the early 2000's Silly bacon signs and sayings grace every inch of this restaurant, but there's much more to this place than just bacon worshiping! There were tables of kids teams, along with girlies getting a nice brunch together. Their menu has something for everyone with happy hour $1 mimosas, omelets, chicken and waffles, and lots of gluten free breakfast options! We were seated promptly and our server was very friendly. The lox Benedict was solid and we loved the gluten free waffles and pancakes. The gluten free chicken strip was such a treat since you don't often see them on menus. If you're looking for an indulgent, bacon-filled gluten free breakfast - this is the place for you! read more

Great food. Very fresh. Very filling. Interesting menu. Service was great. Loved my eggs Benedict. Prices very fare.

We were looking for a brunch spot that would meet everyone's food needs, and this place popped up. It's located inside the mall, and as you walk in, you're greeted by the cookie and pie counter. Super dangerously tempting before you even sit down. Our first interaction was a little bumpy. We were told to wait, and there was some confusion about who was first for a table. But then our waitress, Shannon, completely turned the experience around. She was sweet, patient, and shared how almost everything on the menu is made from scratch. The food was incredible. The Chicken Parmesan was freshly made--hands down the best I've ever had. The Chicken Bacon Waffle Tower was as gorgeous as it was tasty: crispy, crunchy chicken paired with waffles that had the perfect texture. Perfect meal, great service, and Shannon truly made the experience memorable. Definitely recommend!!!!! read more

First the waitress was absolute fantastic. She is the reason we walked out with a smile.
