Dirty, Dirty, Dirty! I walked in and instantly noticed the dirty floors. I was seated promptly at a Dirty table. Then I was presented a Dirty falling apart menu. Gross! The service was good and the food was good and reasonably priced. This is the only reason why I gave them two stars instead of one. But let's face it! No matter how good the food taste, who wants to eat on a dirty table, on a dirty floor with a dirty menu? I don't and won't be back. BTW, I went to wash my hands and the bathroom was no exception - Dirty! On checkout I was able to get a partial view of the kitchen and guess what! DIRTY. I WON'T BE BACK! read more

Billy's Cafe - Time for mew menus. These are disgusting. - Diners Near Me - Lady Lake, Florida

I pass by this place all the time when I'm in the villages, yesterday was my first time coming in. The environment is very nice and inviting, it's super cold inside so bring a jacket or a blanket. I didn't know that you have to sign in with your name and how many people are in your party. There's not a lot of seating so space is limited. It took about 20 minutes before we got our seat. The menu sounds really good. The portions are huge, and pretty price for the food. I was surprised. I ordered the cherry pancakes because it said it came with a cherry glaze so I thought it would be like a powdered sugar and milk glaze no the fake cherries and jam you buy in a can. I wasn't a fan of the cherries but the pancakes were actually very delicious I enjoyed the regular pancakes. The potatoes were not crispy and flavorless, I wasn't the biggest fan of the eggs. My boyfriend enjoyed his gravy and biscuits a lot I tried it and I thought it was a little undercooked but he liked it a lot. The coffee was good nice service. For this food we sort $39 before tip, and I was waiting for like 15 minutes before I realized you have to take your receipt to the cashier however I didn't get a recipe so I just walked up there and my waitress lost out receipt. Overall I give it a 3/5 maybe you will like the food. Try it out! read more

We have a tradition that every year when we are in The Villages, we must go to Billy's. This year was a big disappointment! The service was slow. The omlette was overcooked as were the potatoes. The sausage had a lot of grizzle and the corned beef was fatty. As for the ambiance, it is the same as always and nothing unexpected. read more

What no one told me. When you enter there is a clipboard that you write your name on a waiting list. It was pretty busy but they move quickly so the wait wasn't too bad. Service was fast, efficient, and friendly. The food was hot and very nice portions. This is definitely a go to breakfast place. read more

The first time I dropped in to Billy's and I may have to become a morning person! I had eggs on hash with home fries and it was probably the best I've ever had! Service was prompt and friendly. Ambiance may be lacking a bit but the food with generous portions will make me a regular!! read more

This place is just your standard, charming cafe/diner. It gets really busy in the morning, but dies down pretty quickly. Our server was very friendly and welcoming. I got several things to try because I just couldn't decide on one thing to get! I got coffee, which came very steadily, banana pecan pancakes, a French roll up, and a biscuit. The pancakes weren't too sweet and the bananas on top were super fresh. The biscuit was perfectly moist and salty, which offset the sweetness of the pancakes well, and the French roll up was very light and delicious. The whipped cream that came with it was a sweet delight. read more

Ordered the vegetarian omelette and breakfast potatoes. They give so much food! (It was huge!) I was a little disappointed with the amount of mushrooms in the omelette (i would order without mushrooms next time). The breakfast potatoes were good but if you don't like onion, you might want to get something else-- there as a lot of onion flavor in those. Quick and friendly service and traditional diner food. It was really busy, so must be a popular spot! read more

Billy's Cafe has the most friendly service and the food was delicious. Cannot wait to come back again.

Great breakfast spot and the entire staff was wonderful. I'd recommend this place for lunch and dinner too.

Service is quick. Pepsi Products Coffee cup served with pink lipstick on the rim, make sure and check glassware & utensils. Ordered my Omelette not well done/ brown and what was served was watery undercooked Omelette- blah. Both home-fries and Omelette lacking flavor. read more

Pay attention to the total of your bill...you could be in for a shock!!! This cafe is not the cleanness place to eat. The speed of service is mediocre, even though they try to rush the patrons through. The quality of the food is okay, but not what I would consider very good...just okay! Finally, pay very close attention to the total of your bill. The cashier attempted to tack on an enormous tip which in some cases might have slipped by for some customers. Just thought I would pass this along since seniors tend to be the victims of the greedy and unscrupulous....taken advantage of in other words. read more

Billy's is a great diner type place amidst a sea of corporate chain restaurants. The Veggie omlette is a 5. Service has been excellent. I initially avoided it, mistakenly thinking it was a seedy bar, sure am glad I decided to try it. Very convenient to all sorts of medical offices and shopping at the northern border of The Villages. read more

Billy's Cafe - Veggie omlette no cheese - Diners Near Me - Lady Lake, Florida

I shouldn't even give a star. We were discriminated at this place more than once. I thought that people were more educated about accepting other races besides "white". The first time, the host asked the waiter if we had left a tip in front of us. We always leave at least a 20% tip everywhere we eat. Today, we were left waiting and people that came after us were seated right away. I guess our money is not worth the same value. Well, their loss! Travel woman. Get educated! read more

Don't go by their online prices. Burgers advertising at $8.00 on their online menu. Same ones I ordered. That I wouldn't be complaining so much. I'd say eh ok. But 12.00 is what they charged. I expected a larger portion but when we were served I was disappointed. 2 Burgers, mayo and mustard in little packets. Nothing special. 2 small plates of fries and 2 small cups of Pepsi. Mabye 4 oz after mostly ice. I Think they charged for a couple refills they gave to my son, not sure. Charged almost 7 for drinks but not itemized on receipt. Had to ask what the 7 was for. Came to $35.00, tipped 5, the waitress was nice. 4*'s for waitress. Not satisfied dropping 40 dollars on that. Not on 8 dollar burgers. Mabye breakfast is better. Probably won't be back. read more

Billy's has good food, friendly servers, and great prices. I always leave here happy!

Billy's Cafe does a Great Job! Well worth the occasional 15-30 minute wait. They can only go as fast as tables become available!

Love the cheese in the omelets, the cornbread and hash omelet. The fried potatoes are requested to be extra crispy homemade and they are awesome. The service is always happy, funny and accommodating. The best! read more

Billy's Cafe - Chese omelet and home fries and corn beef hash omelet. Awsome! - Diners Near Me - Lady Lake, Florida

Y'all should really get out there and support the remaining small restaurant businesses like Billy's. This is an old school breakfast/lunch cafe. Friendly staff that appears to have been slinging hash here for decades. Food is good Americana Cuisine. I fear I'll wake up one day in the near future and all the restaurants will be cold, corporate, multi unit, brightly lit, serving frozen Sysco food/crap or worst. To the owners of Billy's Cafe, I doubt y'all have time look at your Yelp! Reviews, my guess is you are too damn busy working to stay alive, but thank you for fighting the good fight. Stay in the ring, keep punching. read more

The only thing good about this place is the price. We had to wait forever to get a table. The quality of the food was poor but one cannot expect much for what you pay, read more

This REALLY is a hole in the wall joint. I've only had breakfast (they do lunch) but I am a repeat customer. Recommend that you get there before 8:30 because it really DOES get packed! Service is good the food comes out hot and fast. Portions are very generous for the greasy spoon food (this is not a bad thing). Only thing I'm not wild about is their coffee. But can't complain as it really is Diner coffee... this is not Starbucks Great iced tea though. I will return! read more

Billy's Cafe is a small, no-frills type diner that has developed a pretty loyal following and deservedly so. The food is good (both in taste and portion size) and the prices are reasonable and competitive to other restaurants. The omelets are a good choice for breakfast. The client that I met here (one of their loyal following) assured me that you cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. By the way, he went with the pancakes. Service was good and we never felt rushed. All in all, this was a good experience. I will give it four stars and I woukd definitely recommend a visit here. read more

Don't go their food is nasty and they serve you uncooked eggs If you want food poisoning then this is the place to go

Every time I visit my folks we go out for breakfast once a week. When my dad asks where I want to go, I always say "Billy's!" The portions are large, the food is good, the price is reasonable, and the service is usually fast. I've only had breakfast here. Today we showed up at 9am on a Sunday with a minimal wait. The food took a little longer than normal, but I understand it's hard to find employees nowadays. Our waitress was hysterically funny, we laughed all the way home about her jokes with a deadpan face. It's a diner and looks like it inside. There are some holiday decorations up now, but the decor is very cute inside-they have wooden slabs with sayings painted on them. Right now their white board said they don't have daily specials, and I've noticed they don't butter the toast or add much sodium to their eggs or potatoes if you try to eliminate those things from your diet. Consistently good food and service. Will be back. read more

a terrific place for breakfast. A friendly staff that serves with a smile and whatever you ask for they have for you. The food is excellent and has a wide variety. I have my Sunday breakfasts there. Try their sour cream and blueberry rolls - blintzes. Please don't mix them up with Billy's in travaries- I do not recommend them. read more

Great food and service! It's always busy as it's quite popular. Limited menu, but there's still something for everyone. Ambiance is good. Small Place & family owned. One of our favorites!! We like the burgers, chicken salad sandwich, salads, and breakfast. read more

Food is average, and very greasy! Makes me want to go and eat at Dennys! It's better food!

This is a great place for breakfast! The portions are a great size and the food is greasy, the two greatest combos ever invented. I needed to add a little more butter because I like things extra greasy, but it's still good. I may have to come back here and try it for lunch, maybe that's good too. The only reason why this place lost a star is because of parking. Parking is awful. There's not enough spots for the amount of people that want to eat here. read more

I ordered a lot of breakfast items and desserts to go. Wasn't impressed. It was just tan ordinary breakfast in my opinion. The lemon meringue and pineapple upside down cake weren't moist. Won't go back. read more

Sharon was the BEST! Our first time here and our friends raved about Billy's and they were correct. I had the cakes with pecans and bananas. I had the whipped cream in the side. I ate it all, except the whipped cream. I also had some of my wife's omelette and potatoes. What a hit with that as well! The servers are sweet and service fast. Check them out for a great meal! read more

I have been dying to eat here. This place is constantly packed and it's almost impossible to get in if you don't come before 9. Today we finally got in, and I was not impressed. We ordered hash with eggs, mushroom and cheese omelet and the blueberry pancake. The hash came with a mountain of potatoes that looked like russet potatoes when you boil them for too long and they almost turn into mash potatoes... they had no flavor and were yellow from all of the fake butter they squirted into them to try to get them to fry and crisper up ( photo attached) The hash was similar in texture to cat food and the eggs were definitely the liquid kind that come in a carton.... The blue berry pancake was a regular pancake topped with canned blueberries. Not to mention it was hard to cut into. Then there was my omelet... the eggs were the liquid kind, stuffed with cheese and fake mushrooms... the potatoes were the same bland mountain of mush that cake with the hash. Yeah, this place is cheap, but it's because they cut a ton of corners... canned this, canned that, bland this, no seasoning that... there is no love in this food. Won't be returning to this mom and pop.. read more

Billy's Cafe - The side potato - mush.... - Diners Near Me - Lady Lake, Florida

Cherry roll ups are cherry pie filling wrapped in a pancake with whipped topping. I should have stuck with my omelet. The servers were cold & impersonal. Very small place and you can't sit anywhere to avoid cold air Everytime the door is opened. Seemed to have alot if local returners so new people are treated a little rudely. Husband had eggs over easy, home fries & sausage. He said it was good but not great. Our friend had the ham & cheese omelet, home fries and said it was good. Will not return. read more

We went to Blly's today. The omelets are great and the pancakes too. I can no longer eat their potatoes because the last two times , they gave me the runs and I was sick until I took medicine. Really bad too! I think they use the same oil when cooking. We did not pay attention to what we order today and the bill for two came to 39.00 and with a tip 48.00 for breakfast. This is outrageous and I made the mistake because we ordered too much. Never again if I can help it. When we make a mistake like this , we will not go back for a month. We use to go every week. The coffee is not that good . read more

We saw this place and said, "why not?" From the outside it doesn't look that great but it's what's inside that counts! The service was great and the food was REALLY GOOD! We waddled out with food left over. The home fries were great as well as everything we ordered for breakfast. Didn't get pancakes, but I'm sure they're good as well. If you're looking for a breakfast spot near the Villages, don't pass by Billy's Cafe because of the outside. Go inside and enjoy! read more

Came in on Saturday morning for breakfast, was busy but our wait was no more than 15 minutes. We were greeted warmly, table was clean, water and coffee arrived promptly. I kept seeing plates of breakfast foods going by with large portions and what looked like fresh from scratch food. My cohorts ordered breakfast while I ordered the Billys salad. Their breakfasts were well prepared with very generous servings. My salad was fresh and tasty, the chicken slices could have been larger, and more tasty, but overall a good salad. Average meal price for us was 10.00. Would return again. Good home cooking read more

Saturday breakfast. Getting there by 8 o'clock is a good plan. Place filled up with several "regulars." Coffee plentiful, eggs and home fries better than ever...and a real pile of home fries filled the smaller platter. We'll be back and bring friends! read more

Have driven past this place for the last year,well today was the day. We have really missed the boat. The atmosphere was great, walk in and you write your name on the seating pad. The staff could not have been more fun. I had ham & cheese omelette and the great home fried potatoes my wife had pancakes. Everything was delicious does not look like much from the outside but inside is worth the stop. read more

It's a good old fashioned Dinner. The food is good and plenty. My favorite place in The Villages area for breakfast. The food is always warm when served, cooked as I requested it, and good portions. I also like the $$, you get something for your buck. Generally speaking the waiters/waitresses are attentive to the customer. Definitely better than the (dog Dar.....) ware your food gets lost on the plate and 2 egg omelets. read more
