    Breakfast "enchiladas" were more like chicken flautas with an egg on top. Very tasty. And filling.
    Jill B.

    It was a busy morning due to a power outage in town. I was offered a seat at the window ledge but declined (bad knees). I was then offered a table if I was willing to wait. Seated 15 minutes later. Barely acknowledged. But order taken promptly. Food delivered swiftly. No coffee refill, no water refill, no asking if my meal was tasty? It was. Though more like chicken flautas, then enchiladas. And was given change for a $20 in fives. I could tip $2 or leave $5 for an $18 bill. Normally, I'm a good tipper but there was barely any service. That said, it's clearly normally a friendly place. There were plenty of regulars. I clearly was here on an off day. I love the kid's toys. And I have dined outside where it's not so loud. And had better service.

    Bittersweet Kitchen might have a wait, but it's worth the wait. And that comes from 4 hungry runners after the Philly Half Marathon. We found that the servers and restaurant owner/manager were both extremely kind and attentive, and while waiting, we enjoyed the interior decor. The restaurant itself is slightly small, but it makes up for that space with its bubbly atmosphere and homey interior decor. I liked that peaceful dining experience I ordered an omelet with a side salad and biscuit and found the food to be hot, filling, and not-too-greasy. As a girl who lives in the South, I'm used to my brunch being way too heavy, but Bittersweet Kitchen hit the balance just right. My friends who ordered the huevos ranchos, the tomato soup, and the spinach omelet also agreed with me. We also split an order of the pumpkin donut holes for the table, which were delicious and not too sweet! Next time I am in Media, I will definitely pop back into Bittersweet Kitchen for the great service, ambiance, and delicious food.

    Came here on a Saturday around 9am and were lucky to be seated right away. The place is cozy and the staff were friendly. Service was quick too and the food was delicious (our group got the spinach, mushroom and feta omelette and stuffed French toast). Everything was freshly made, would definitely recommend this spot.

    This was my first time at Bittersweet Kitchen, and I had high hopes. Maybe I went on an off day, but my buttermilk pancakes tasted like that stuff you used in preschool. I think it was called Mod Podge. I prefer light, fluffy, flavorful, and fresh pancakes. The bacon was tasty, although not even close to hot. I did tell the waitress that the pancakes were underwhelming so she took them off my bill. I purchased a blueberry scone and that also had no flavor and was the softest scone I've ever had. I'm passing, but everyone else in the restaurant seemed happy with their food.

    French Toast BLT with maple mayo and house potatoes. Interesting and tasty variation on a lunch classic sandwich

    Amazing food and great service in a small well decorated breakfast & lunch cafe in Media right by the Courthouse. Definitely gets crowded and you will probably wait for a table but well worth it. Homemade food made with great care and some unique choices. Good menu and has specials as well. Staff is very attentive. Prices are a bit high but not bad when you account for the food quality and portions.

    Great lil spot! Shotgun review: - Good coffee - Friendly service - Quick experience* - Tasty, imaginative food** - Plenty of gluten-free options - Nice bar/window seats with street views *We went on a Wednesday morning at around 10 AM. I bet it's much, much busier on the weekends. **I couldn't decide between a sweet or savory experience, & when the server suggested that I could do both, I was delighted. I tried their French toast BLT on gluten-free bread & I'm very glad I did. As promised, it was both sweet & savory. Totally delicious & very filling!

    This is a cute spot in Media for breakfast and lunch. There's street parking. There's indoor and outdoor seating. It smells delicious in there. We tried the Bittersweet Kitchen eggs and Avocado Toast. Everything was delicious. They have Coke products.

    This place is worth the hype. Everything tasted amazing, even my picky friends were impressed. The wait staff were friendly and everything came at a reasonable time, considering how busy they were. I'll definitely be back!

    I like the burgers a lot.The staff are kind of rude though. The overall experience is nice because the restaurant is in the heart of media.

    Do they take reservations?

    Do they allow dogs?

    I've never seen a dog in there, so I'm guessing they don't. But there is outdoor seating and I'm betting it's not a problem to have a well behaved dog out there.

I love the Omelettes, they're definitely above average, they come with fried potatoes and perfectly toasted/buttered bread. I love putting the omelette on top of the bread, so good! The perfect amount of food and I clean my plate everytime. Although, not enough for leftovers. I've gotten the 14 Hour Pork Butt Omelette and the Kennett Square Omelette. Both were delicious! My boyfriend and family have had the Huevos Rancheros--which looked amazing and I was told it was delicious. Looked like a lot of food too, so if you want something more filling and hearty, I'd get that over the omelettes. They've also had the breakfast sandwiches, which looked like a steal for the price and very good as well. The coffee, hot chocolate and tea is great too, and fairly priced! I get a drink every time, and they make sure you have refills, sugar, honey, whatever you want with it. Overall I recommend this place as a pretty good option if you're in Media!

The website seemed to describe a place that was creative, happy, and offering fresh and tasty fare. Could not have been more impressed: I ordered the "Media Bowl," which was abundant with greens, veggies, chicken and flavor. Beyond the food itself (which was the main attraction), the vibe was so friendly, as was the service. And I've rarely visited an establishment where it was so evident that people loved being there. Hope to visit again sometime! Thank you! David S (Mpls-St Paul)

I picked one of the IPAs - actually had 2 because HH was $4 per. As per my waitress. Asked for a check Got it $13 Hmmm ? Told her they are listed as $4 or $8 total. She seemed really perplexed Said she needed to go talk to her handlebar- mustache - beer nerd - manager. Returned with "sorry no HH on Friday". Ok...... Why the menu And the dialogue around the beers on HH "Sorry about that...." was her response Folks - it's not about the extra $5 -- it's about the fact that I chose that specific beer because of the HH pricing. If there is no HH - I'm not choosing that beer. Simple- yes ? I go there a lot But nah Not anymore. These effin beer nerds are there for a reason.
