    Breakfast Bowl
    Alexandra P.

    Checked this place out on a Saturday morning around 9am and it was pretty empty, which I didn't mind. I originally thought it was more of a casual cafe but once inside, it felt like a slightly elevated breakfast/brunch spot. You can either order through a server or scan the QR code at the table and order from your phone. I think it's nice to have both options. We started with drinks: a latte and a chai tea. The latte was super cute (loved the presentation in the blue mug) and tasted great. The chai was also really good. We hung out for out for some time before ordering enjoyed having the place basically to ourselves! At first, we weren't planning to order food but once the place started filling up and we saw what people were getting, we couldn't resist. We ended up splitting the breakfast bowl with smoked salmon and a side of potato wedges. The bowl had kale, warm quinoa, feta, tomatoes, and a poached egg. It was light but still satisfying. Now for the wedges.... They were unreal. Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and came with this sour cream and sweet chili sauce that was seriously addictive. I definitely ate more than my share. By the time we left, the place was packed so it's clearly a neighborhood favorite. Overall, loved the food, the vibe, and will definitely be coming back.

    Side plates and coffee

    Stopped in while our daughter was in the hospital. We stumbled into this place by chance . Wait staff is exceptional. We ordered small plates- pancakes and side of eggs. The pancakes are delicious and served with real maple syrup ! The eggs were scrambled and were delicious and well presented. Coffee- what a great cup of made in house coffee. I drank a carafe by myself . Prices are perfect and I wish that there was one of these in Austin! Well done

    Lemon ricotta pancakes
    Mel S.

    This is a quaint breakfast spot to go to with the family or with girlfriends. The atmosphere is quiet and quaint. The food comes out fairly quickly. The wait staff was nice and attentive. Lemon ricotta pancakes - okay, the pancakes are pretty normal, the lemon is very necessary to make these above average. The plating is nice and pleasing to the eye. Soft chili egg scramble - Awesome chili oil flavoring, a dash of spiciness is superb with the avocado. Laura was an excellent waitress. Lovely smile and personality.

    This is supposed to be the cold brew with almond milk.

    Honestly, some of the worst coffee I've ever had in my life and we ordered three different ones cold brew, cappuccino, and chai... all watery, tasted like dishwasher, and after two sips, they all went in the trash. $ wasted

    Soft Chili Scramble w/ Avocado
    Auston P.

    !!One of the best breakfasts ever!! Food: The soft chili scramble is to die for. It's a fluffy soft scramble which is a must if you're serving a scramble. The balance of seasoning on it, mixed with the chili oil paste surrounding the dish. It was out of this world good! Making breakfast exciting can be tough, they nailed it with this dish. I can't wait to try and mimic it at home! Service: All the young ladies were extremely kind. Especially the one who referred me to the amazing dish above! Atmosphere: Very clean modern/classic mix! Small, but cute. I will 100% be back here

    Avocado smash
    Sunny B.

    Delicious brunch spot! They have a lot of vegetarian options. I got the avocado smash, which is their version of avocado toast. It was delicious! The feta packed a tangy punch and the chili flakes added the perfect amount of spice. I wish prices were a little bit cheaper. My one piece of avocado toast was $14! Additionally, although they have a parking lot, parking can get full. We found parking on the nearby street and walked over. Would definitely return to try another dish!

    Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissant with tomato
    Sandra K.

    I walked in this morning and there was plenty of parking and no one there. It is of course a random Wednesday and fall weather just hit. I got a chai with a shot of espresso which came out piping hot and immediately. I also got a breakfast croissant and added tomatoes. That came out quickly too. My croissant was soggy and floppy so as I picked it up to take a bite all the things came sliding out. Otherwise the bacon could have been thicker and crispier, egg was cooked well and seasoned well. Two tomato slices wasn't very much. I don't even know if I was charged extra or not but if I was then two thin slices is stingy. I wish it would have come with a side of fruit.

    Great coffee!!! Haven't had pumpkin spice with a twist like they make it here!! Food wasn't anything to talk about.

    Pumpkin Suede Cold Brew
    Brooke A.

    Such a cute spot but unfortunately was disappointed in my encounter. Tried to order through the app because there was a promo for free coffee. It wasn't working so I asked if they could help or honor it but was told they don't know how to use the app. Got a pumpkin latte and cold brew. The cold brew tasted sour and rancid and wasn't drinkable.

    Soft Chili Scramble with Avocado (chili shallot-folded eggs and avocado with sesame seeds topped with chili oil) for $15
    Justin A.

    Bluestone Lane is an Australian-inspired coffee shop and café. Ever since they opened up in the Heights, it has become my go-to spot. The convenience of a private parking lot is a plus, but it does fill up quickly. Thankfully, street parking on Yale Street is usually available. The ambiance is welcoming, with plenty of tables inside and a large outdoor patio. Even when it gets busy, I've never had to wait long for a table. [SMOOTHIES] +Protein Mocha Smoothie (vanilla protein powder, cold brew coffee, blended with cocoa, cinnamon, almond milk, almond butter, and banana) for $10 - This is off their menu, but you can still order it in person! Weirdly, it still shows up on their online menu. Other locations of Bluestone Lane do not have this smoothie! I love this smoothie. - 5/5 [BREAKFAST] +Soft Chili Scramble with Avocado (chili shallot-folded eggs and avocado with sesame seeds topped with chili oil) for $15 - This is a small breakfast plate if you just want a small bite. I typically order this every time I go! - 5/5 While these are my go-to items, everything else on the menu is fantastic. Bluestone Lane isn't a fancy restaurant, but it prides itself on fresh ingredients and excellent coffee. The service is always great, making it an ideal spot for a quick meal or a relaxed brunch. Plus, it's kid-friendly; I often bring my baby along, stroller and all, without any issues. I would highly recommend checking them out!

    Australian-influenced café that is a must-try! They miraculously have their own dedicated parking lot and ample street parking despite being located in the Heights, so parking is fairly easy. They have a really cute outdoor patio with white and blue umbrella ambiance for days with nice weather, and they all blues and whites inside with Gray Malin aerial photos of Australian beaches decorating the walls. The staff is all incredibly friendly and helpful. They recommended the Flat White and the Avocado Smash as traditional Australian favorites, so that's what I got! I added bacon and poached egg, which made it particularly scrumptious. The plate was creatively presented with some sort of avocado purée surrounding the main dish, and there was also a little something that added a slight kick to the flavor. I'm normally a cappuccino drinker, but the flat white was delicious! A less airy alternative to the cappuccino according to the waiter, and I'd agree. It was very well made. I ordered a side of heirloom carrots (because why don't more places do carrots?!) but had to take them home because I was too full from my meal. But also delicious! I plan on returning soon!

    The cafe itself is really charming. It was raining the day we went but there was plenty of seating indoor and outdoor. The chai latte was delicious!! I also ordered the chili egg meal and it was pretty yummy. To be honest, I expected a bowl of actual chili but it's not that. Still yummy though.

    BLATE, Protein Vanilla Smoothie, Protein PB & Blueberry Smoothie
    Victoria L.

    My friend and I ate brunch here after working out. The protein smoothies tasted amazing along with the BLATE. Service was quick, and interior is very clean. Plenty of parking along Yale St.

Thankfully, Mark was there and initially was told a 35 minute wait but seemed intent by quicker. Ambiance: 4/5 It was breakfast time so of course it was a busy time. For my visit, it was crowded but not to where you couldn't hear your table. Dress is casual, good for friends, solo, or pit stop. Service: 5/5 Our waitress was very knowledgeable and friendly. Since it was our first visit there, she gave us some background that it was a Pappa's owned restaurant and food is made from scratch. Food: 3/5 They offer mimosas and I was tempted to order, but was driving and it was 9AM so forewent that option. There are food options for every tastebud. Mark ordered the fried cheese sticks, they were one of the items that I found worthwhile to return for. I opted for the Waffle feast. It included a waffle, that I added pecans on top to, two strips of bacon, eggs your way and hash browns. To say that I needed to add salt and pepper to the eggs and hash browns because they tasted bland and flavorless was unfortunate. It also was served at room temperature, because it was made from scratch, would think it be warmer to hot. The waffle was savory and had good mix and topped with the pecans made it even better. If you're on this side of town and want a change up from the "other breakfast diners" DOT would be where I stop. Fast, friendly service. Depending the food you get, it gets the job done for some sustenance to hold you over when you're not sure when your next meal is because you'll be in Galveston for 7 hours riding a float in the Mardi Gras parade.

I wanted to start with one biscuit, but the biscuits come in pairs. The waitress said I could order just one anyway, but the order ended up being two. I meant to save the second one for breakfast, but that was not to be. It did not survive long enough to make it out the door. My actual meal was a bacon swiss and mushroom burger, which was excellent. Between the biscuits and the burger, I am forced to acknowledge that it was entirely too much food. Sadly, that did not prevent me from eating all of it anyway. Delicious! The restaurant, which is a diner with very basic decor, is on an approach road to IAH, and is open 24/7. When I arrived in the evening, the place was empty. By the time I left, there were a whole bunch of customers. I noticed in other reviews that people were saying they did not receive checks for their meal and felt they were over-charged at the register.

Mr. Picky ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp while I opted for Veal Parmigiana, and we each stole a bite from the other's plate. We reached consensus immediately that both dishes were well-seasoned and quite delicious, meaning we would return for more good food in the future. Seriously, we hadn't expected much when walking in and looking around, but were pleasantly surprised at the kitchen's efforts. We finished lunch with an order of homemade bread pudding and tiramisu, the latter of which in 2012 won a chamber of commerce epicurean competition 1st place ribbon. I wasn't there to judge that competition and have had better, but sincerely appreciated the moistness of the bread pudding. While the majority of diners were older and a more mature crowd, there's a lot to be said for value, and we thought the menu price was better than reasonable and I think a lot of people will discover this as a value destination, something we all appreciate.
