I'm new to the area and don't have appliances yet, so I went in search of breakfast. I'm not disappointed. Half order of biscuits with gravy was huge. I've also had scrambled eggs. This will be my treat place when I don't feel like cooking. read more

We decided to stop in and try Benson's by the beach for breakfast. We were welcomed with fallen soldiers table which was very touching. When we got seated we were seated next to a little Veteran's photo, which was very neat as well. Those appeared to be the only wonderful things about this restaurant. I ordered the country Benedict, it was extremely bland and very disappointing. My husband ordered the crab omelet special, which was a whopping $30, when it arrived at the table it was this small omelet, with a piece of toast and hashbrowns, he said it was really bland and definitely not worth the price. My daughter ordered the breakfast burrito, which was also very bland and not worth the price. My son ordered the French toast with strawberries and whipped cream, now when you think of french toast you think someone couldn't mess that up, well they did, it had way too much cinnamon and my son didn't end up finishing it, we took it home to doctor it up a bit so the cinnamon wasn't quite overwhelming. Overall our experience wasn't great, the waitress checked on us once and then left the check. I can say we will not be back and will not be recommending them to anyone. read more

We were delighted to have breakfast at Bensons where you feel like a human being in this disopian world. Our server treated us like a guest in her home. The place is clean with cute beachy decor. We enjoyed perfectly cooked eggs, golden crispy hash browns, tasty chicken fried steak, perfect buttery toast and great coffee. Portions are generous. We'll be back! read more

Delicious small town breakfast joint. One of the few options in town so expect a crowd. Worth it

Yummy chicken fried steak!! Good came out hot! Also server was great and very friendly.

Great value for a breakfast. Servers are friendly, fast and efficient! They get busy, but totally worth the wait! Trying the biscuit and gravy today. The menu has many options of deliciousness. read more

Great food, fast service, and friendly staff. They seated us right away and we had breakfast for lunch. My crab omelet was amazing. It was a little bit pricy but the crab was so tasty. If you're in Long Beach, Benson's is a must stop. read more

Small cafe with a small staff , with GREAT food and service was friendly and helpful and fast Delightful way to start your day!!!! read more

Benson's by the beach breakfast did not meet my expectations! As I thought "this restaurant only serves breakfast, so they must master in breakfast".... Well I thought wrong. The chicken fried steak did not taste homemade as advertised, I tasted a sausage patty with gravy on top and the ALL meat breakfast burrito was overpriced for the quantity and quality of ingredients. We paid more to get an all meat burrito but what we got was a hash brown burrito with a splash of meat. For being a "breakfast restaurant" In my opinion there are better ones around. Skip this one. read more

The hostess (with the purple short hair) is RUDE! While we were waiting to be seated - we were actually googling another restaurant as the first point of contact was not nice. Barking orders at us for one person in each party to stay and wait and the rest of us wait outside. It was pouring outside. There was only one couple ahead of us and then a party of 6 showed up. We could see empty tables - and they had been cleared... but we still waited and waited. By the time we found another restaurant - we were finally seated. Our waitress was Phoebe and she was GREAT! The food took 30 minutes to arrive. Kinda worth the wait as the food and portions were good. However - again, the first point of contact was horrible. We never saw her smile. Not once. read more

This restaurant is the definition of mediocre. Little to no flavor in any of the dishes. The portion sizes are very small and over priced. There isn't many options in Long Beach, it's a shame. read more

I wish I had read ANY of the reviews before putting myself & my family through this nasty breakfast experience. The chicken fried steak is obviously a frozen patty of some sort, the "gravy" was definitely canned. Hash browns were under cooked. The sausage tasted like it was previously frozen & microwaved to warm. The bacon was dripping grease and limp. All this was taken to go, we were only a block away so the condition of the food had nothing to do with it being to go. Overall a horrible experience, well worth negative 4 out of negative 5 stars if possible. The only saving grace would be the eggs, at least they weren't raw. Far overpriced, should have been cheaper than McDonalds, thinking back, McDonalds would have been a better breakfast for all of us. read more

Pretty cold small building and cold breakfast cheese in omelette was still hard , even the first cup of coffee was Luke warm. but nice warm brisket on the side which I really had to point out on the side. Please!!! Miss the restaurant by Chico's Laurels the name of that one restaurant? Best and very friendly. Sorry that we were the beginning of opening of the day. 7:30 AM. read more

We got to Bensons at about 1030 for brunch. We were seated quickly. They were spacing people out really well. Our waitress Phoebe was great she brought us coffee and waters quickly and attended to all our needs. She took our food order and we waited and waited and waited. In other words it took awhile to get our food. We were in good company and visiting so the time passed. When we got our food it was really good and filling. Omelets were good ,hash browns crisp and the french toast was great. We finished our meals and our waitress brought our bills. She apologized that our food had taken so long and she told us they had comped some items and discounted others. I found it refreshing that they admitted there was an issue without being confronted and that they took steps to make it right. If you are in town go to Bensons. read more

Had the CFS this morning with a group of 8, seated very quickly, service was excellent and very attentive! The Chicken Fried Steak could have been a little larger, but a good deal for 16$.....good selection of breakfast plates. Was busy talking and forgot pictures, but if in town, give this place a try! read more

A nice place, friendly staff, prompt service! The crab eggs benedict was good, with one exception the crab wasn't drained enough and the English muffin got soggy. Other than that, it was good - great hollandaise sauce and the English muffin was toasted nicely! read more

Went for breakfast. Got seated right away but knew it wasn't a good sign when it looked like quite a few people were waiting for food. Took 10 min for someone to come to our table to take our order. Food took prob 30 min. We just ordered a breakfast sandwich. Coffee tasted not great. Crying baby. (Not their fault) Over all just wanted to get up and walk out but stuck it out. read more

This guy let's his politics interfere with business. Jaydra C (1 review) I'd give less than one star if I could. We came in at 12:00pm. We are here because my 5 year old is having a Make a Wish trip since he's recovering from 2 years of cancer treatment. The owner saw our face masks and refused us service. Don't waste your money here. read more

I had the crab benedict one day, the seafood the next, both chock fil of seafood and really nice hollandaise. Also coffee refills frequently offered (a pet peeve of mine is having to ask for more coffee in a breakfast place). Fast service, very friendly but not intrusive, perfect in my book. Again great little place for vacation breakfast read more

Best Breakfast Place in Town We were on the hunt for a restaurant that was open for sit down service for breakfast while in town in late June. Took a little while to find this gem but really glad that we stopped. Service was fast, food was great - although their juice machine was not working that particular morning, so no OJ for me. Oh well. We are looking to retire up here and I think this place has the potential of making us regular customers. read more

We walked in to an adorable restaurant, clean with a very friendly staff. Service was excellent. Food was filling and really good!!! We definitely would eat here again. Also family friendly for those with young children. Thanks for a nice visit!! read more

I have to admit that I stopped at benson's because it bears my last name. It was noticed in passing, and... well... of course I had to see what they're offering. The food was good! I ordered a meat scramble w/ English muffin and extra crisp hashbrowns. All came as ordered and definitely satisfied my belly. The coffee was quite good also. Fair prices, great food, great service, and a cute little clean building. How can I complain? read more

Great place for a delicious breakfast and friendly staff with a short wait! Don't forget to ask for ketchup and utensils!

We all enjoyed breakfast. The eggs with gravy were good. Gravy was on the side and maybe today wasn't a good gravy day. The hamburgers were really good and the BLT was excellent. I would order it again. We'll be back read more

Nice local breakfast place in Long Beach, WA. Service was fast, friendly and efficient. Serving size was on the bigger side. Pancake was huge and fluffy pan. It can be shared. Place was clean. We had a nice view from where we were sitting. I love the ambiance. Definitely coming back whenever we are in the area. read more

We came to Benson's by the beach for breakfast and enjoyed the friendliness and promptness of our server, Skyla. She also informed us of the daily specials. This place is quaint and Conveniently located near numerous hotels. It is a place to go for an early meal. The sausage and egg plate was beautiful assembled and the half order B&G was smothered with gravy. I must say the price for a glass of milk could be a gallon purchase at a grocery store. Overall we enjoyed the meal. :) read more

Not sure why this has 3.5 stars, on Google it has 4.7 stars. I think Yelp users might be a little too picky lol. The food was really good. We got the ham and eggs and hash browns with toast meal. Our friend got the veggie omelette. We didn't have any complaints about the taste. Everything tasted like it should. the coffee was basic and nothing too exciting but that's okay. The ham steaks were delicious. Best ham I've had at breakfast restaurants. The service was pretty good too. All in all 5/5. read more

Delicious food! Best breaks in town the crab cake Benedict is super good. If there is a wait it's worth it. The food is fantastic, service is very friendly. read more

3.5 stars = average = so so! Nothing to see here folks! The only things here above average was the huge pancake and the service. Seafood Eggs Benedict: To be honest I came here today craving anything seafood so my evaluation of the Seafood Eggs Benedict may have been skewed. I love seafood and I love eggs Benedict, unfortunately the combo of the two here were only average. The tangy hollandaise sauce over powdered the delicate flavors of the crab and shrimp. The tang of the ordinary sauce should have been dialed back a bit especially for this dish for it to have had a chance. Veggie omelette: so so! Biscuits and gravy: so so! Pancake: above average in size and taste! Nothing here was bad and I will come back if it's convenient or I don't have any better option at the time of my hunger. read more

On a work trip just before spring break and decided to stay in Long Beach for the weekend at Coastal Inn. It's just before the busy season starts for this town but there's still a good mix of us tourists and locals at the restaurant that weekend. Bensons is just a 3 minute walk from the hotel so we headed over for breakfast. This place is absolutely wonderful. It's very popular because it's the best breakfast place in town IMO. They only serve breakfast but that's what we wanted. Expect a wait but it's worth it! My wife had the French toast which is 3 HUGE slices of bread (and we live in Texas so yeah when I say large portions it was Texas sized!) and I had the brisket eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was the best I've had in a long time. Everyone is pleasant and friendly. Our service was great, the atmosphere and ambiance was perfect for this establishment. Even though they were busy we didn't feel rushed as we finished our flavorful coffee. Highly recommend when you come to Long Beach, WA. read more

We dined in for breakfast. We ordered the short stack of pancakes (2), French toast with whipped cream and strawberries with a side of hash browns. It was more than enough for two adults and two teens, we actually had leftover pancake and French toast. The pancakes are huge and hung off the side of the plate and came with plenty of syrup. The French toast seems to be made with a whole wheat bread so for me it definitely needed the extra sweetness of the whipped cream and strawberries. The food came out quickly and tasted really good. read more

Delicious! The cutest little ma & pa looking cafe with a wonderful breakfast! The French toast was good, but I HIGHLY recommend the breakfast burritos. The staff was kind and food was great. Definitely will be returning. When you look it up on the Apple Maps app, it says it is "permanently closed", however it definitely is not so don't be mistaken! read more

Food was okay--- service was great! Took awhile for the food but it was a busy weekend in Long Beach!

As a family of four we came here over the holiday break in 2023. This place might be adequate if you only need to fill your belly, but it misses the mark on many counts. The place is bright and well lit, but the tables and chairs seemed a bit cheap. The apple and orange juices were terrible, unripe and very acidic OJ and watered down tasting apple juice. The coffee tasted like they reused the grounds a dozen times and was served so hot it promptly burned my mouth. My wife's Dungeness cCab Benedict was by far the tastiest thing but cost $30. My biscuits and gravy was bland and the gravy tasted like it came from a can. My son ordered the full stack of pancakes, which were some of the largest I've seen, but tasted realistic bland. The servers were friendly and adequate. In short, when we return to Long Beach, we'll look for a breakfast joint that delivers better than Bensons. read more

Make sure to hit this place for breakfast while you are in town. The staff are friendly, the food is fantastic and the portions are gigantic. Every time we come to Long Beach we stop in for breakfast and always enjoy the food. Stop in. You won't be disappointed. read more

Benson's by the Beach - The Spanish scramble (special of the day) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Long Beach, Washington

Spent more than an hour in the restaurant on a Monday morning arriving just before 9:30. Asked our server how much longer it would be, and was rudely told "I said it would be a few more minutes, I'll go get the ticket and show you how long it's been!" If you like waiting an exorbitant amount of time for your meal and being treated rudely, this is the place to go! read more

I ordered what they advertise as an in-house breaded chicken fried steak and got a breaded hamburger patty instead. Diced potatoes with absolutely no seasoning on them at all. I do have to say the eggs were poached perfectly, and the service was excellent. That is why I gave them two stars. I paid $14 for a hamburger patty and a plate full of bland food. I would have happily paid a couple dollars more for a real chicken fried steak and a plate of food with flavor. Seasoning salt goes a long way and ads flavor to everything you cook! I love good food and have traveled many miles to try some. I would never come back to this place. Nor would I ever recommended to friends or travelers. read more

Benson's by the Beach - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Long Beach, Washington

This is a great little place! It's family owned and you definitely get that vibe and treatment. They have lots of menu options, and the prices are very reasonable. I couldn't decide what I wanted so I had their croissant breakfast sandwich and a side of French toast. I was so full, i didn't finish either but I loved them both. Their kitchen is small therefore a little slow, but they do have a sign that states this, so I was pretty forgiving about it. It's definitely a hot spot in this small town so we had to wait a bit, but there was a bench outside so it wasn't so bad. It was my favorite spot of the weekend there we visited while staying here and I would definitely recommend it. read more
