Always great food - very good portions for both breakfast and lunch. Coffee is always fresh. Comfortable and clean inside and I love the wall art :) Their method of making french fries is so good! Fresh and extra crispy. My only complaint is that I don't like to be served on a plastic plate. 5 stars for food and nice service, but I'm knocking off 1 star for plastic plates. I'm a middle aged woman, not a 4 year old so I prefer not to have my lunch served on plastic. read more

Stopped here when we were on an out of town trip. The service was excellent and the food was great!

Can NOT believe the bad reviews! Wow! I go there all the time with my girlfriends after working out! While all the employees are friendly, Troy is my favorite! Service is GREAT! Food is delicious! Coffee is good! I will continue to be a fan of Breaker's Cafe! Give them a chance and say Kendra sent you, ha! Love you Troy! Myrna and I had a GREAT BREAKFAST TODAY! :) read more

My girlfriend and I decided to go here because she keeps saying how good it is. Sounded like a nice place; wrong. 1 star for quick service. My dish consisted of two eggs over easy, diced potatoes, diced ham, and cheese. It was barely warm and clearly microwaved. The food still had a frozen taste to it. The middle of the dish was warm and rest was cold. The eggs and my girlfriend's pancakes were just ok. The coffee was weak and I don't drink coffee very much. I will wait a year or more before I go back. read more

Wonderful tofu and veggies breakfast for me, and my BF loved his Breakers Omelet. The portion sizes were great, except for the fruit cup that you can substitute for the potatoes for $1. It came in the smallest bowl I've ever seen. It held maybe 2 tablespoons of fruit. Not worth it, at all. They need to be more generous, especially where healthy choices are concerned. The country-style potatoes were pretty bland. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere is comfortable. read more

My girlfriend and I are, I'd have to say, breakfast connoisseurs, so we were pretty excited to find somewhere with decent reviews so close to my apartment. Unfortunately I can't say the reviews actually match up to what you get. She ordered the pancakes and I ordered one of their omelets. Let me tell you something, bisquik does not count as homemade pancakes. More do dry eggs go with greasy omelet ingredients. I didn't even know that was possible until I came here. Needless to say that was the first and only time. read more

I always order the crab eggs benedict. Makes for a great neighborhood brunch joint. Good place for family who and for those who are not so much in a rush. Elli the server provides great service along with the rest of the staff read more

This place has really gone downhill in the last 3+ years. The pancakes come to the table black, the country style potatoes are shriveled, tough and dry, the coffee gets weaker all the time & it's way too hard to get a refill. I've stopped going there. I'll miss the parrot. read more

First time here and loved it! Big portions. Try the omelettes. Food tasty & served hot! We will be back

Our family loves Sunday breakfast here before we all head off to work! Every item on the menu is amazing! The staff could not be Warner!

It was a good scramble ...portion was just ok nothing to write home about.the bread was really good(fresh).i get like the plates were to big for how much food came on there. Our server was very nice read more

The food here is pretty mediocre and the service is inconsistent. I also have an issue with flies buzzing around me and my food when I am seated inside. It always seems to be packed on the weekends but I feel like every known breakfast place is like that. Bottom line: not bad, not good, just average. read more

Just your typical, run-of-the-mill kind of cafe/diner with an awesome parrot out front. I've only come here a few times, but nothing really stuck out other than the epic murals they have in the restaurant. The menu is standard breakfast/lunch affair (American breakfast, sandwiches). Service was decent, server was very energetic and attentive. Food about average. Certainly not my favorite little diner spot, but if I'm buying stationary or something at McWhorter's next door, I'm thinking eh, why not? read more

I only had coffee and pancakes and both were good. And customer service was great. I'll be back for sure.

Always great food and service here. And they do a single eggs Benny that's perfect for a lighter breakfast.

Honestly, you can't expect alot from a breakfast place. I've been going to this place during times when Buck's is just too busy. Breaker's is reminiscent of a local diner joint that serves quick & tasty breakfasts. Come to here if you want something fast & no-frills. read more

I read a few of the Yelp! reviews and since I go out to brunch almost every weekend, I have learned: Be specific on how you want your food cooked. There are too many different ways to serve eggs and potatoes. I personally can't stand overcooked eggs and I want my potatoes crispy. I always give a star for attentiveness. My omelet and hashbrowns were cooked perfectly. I asked for a combo of fillings not listed and they accommodated. I loved that at 10:30 we were seated immediately and that there was no rush to get us out the door. read more

Great food and service! We finally have a breakfast place in redwood city. Easy parking and lots of spaces to park; the place is clean. read more

I love breakers. Me and my best friends go there almost every weekend for the past 4 years. Even when we are too lazy to to go out, we doordash it. Their whole staff is extremely nice and always greets us with a smile. They remember us every time we go in, Breakers is hands down one of the best spots in Redwood City. read more

great food, great/quick service, and friendly staff! what more can anyone ask for? :) plus, i saw a mom lugging her infant in a car/bucket seat to a booth in the back. she was struggling a bit so a waitress offered to carry her infant for her...what a kind, small town kind of touch! so sweet. i definitely recommend this place. :) read more

Nasty breakfast! Skillet was over cooked with no flavor. Biscuit and gravy was a redish color with a nasty skin on top so gross. I will not go back and recommend you don't. read more

This is a great place for breakfast or lunch. Fast service and good food. Recommend the Pam's omelet - created by the owner named Pam. I have been coming here for years and it has maintained the same high standards. I highly recommend this place. They also do great milkshakes. read more

Good food, nice place. Dislike the waiters bring the check right after your second cup of coffee but that wont stop me from coming here for breakfast!! read more

I have breakfast at the Breakers whenever possible. Breakers is the best place for breakfast ever! - Phil Campbell, Tennessee

Cute little hidden treasure. Had a quick lunch of soup/salad. Was seved fast and everything tastes great.

I used to love coming here, almost every weekend...today was the 3rd time we have come and waited AN HOUR for our food. This place is going downhill fast. They need to step up their game if they think they will continue to get business. I saw 2 people walk out on their order after waiting 45 min and still no food. So sad...sorry breakers but we won't be coming back read more

Could be great, but it is fair. Service is very nice. Atmosphere is good for a breakfast cafe. Food is nothing special and coffee is watery. If this food was either cheaper or much better it would be good, but is is too expensive for what you receive. read more

I have been going to Breakers for a long time. This place has such good service! Everyone is so sweet and with the outdoor seating, we can bring our dogs. The one waiter always remembers our dogs and always takes time to say hi to them. They have a water bowl outside and everything. As for the food, it is decent. It definitely isn't the best (coffee sucks). HOWEVER, the reason I always come back is the people and the atmosphere. It is very homey. I do agree with another commenter who said it could use a bit of an update. PS - sad fact, the bird that has been the mascot of Breakers for so long, has passed. We were absent from this place for a few months and when we came back, we got the sad news :( read more

Every time I go into Breakers Cafe I usually have their homemade Corned Beef Hash. It's always delicious to me. I'm taking a dear friend tomorrow morning there and she's never been there. I'm sure she'll enjoy the food. Love the place. read more

Let me start by saying I never leave yelp reviews but I love this place! I've been coming here since I was a little girl and the food hasn't changed! The service is amazing and it is a very peaceful environment. I just finished eating lunch with my boyfriend and we both agreed that they have the best french fries we've ever had! read more

One of my favorite places to eat. I work close by and eat here for lunch. When it's packed very little wait time. Extremely friendly and family oriented staff. The food is so fresh, salad ....perfect and fresh. The prices are also great. Enjoy:) read more

I stopped by here for lunch today. I've been a few times before and the food and service were fine. Not today--what a disaster. After waiting at least forty minutes my lunch arrived. It wasn't even what I ordered. The wait person said something like "What do you expect, everyone came at once". Silly me to come for lunch at 12:30 p.m. I won't be back. read more

We stumbled on to Breakers Cafe, thanks to Garmin GPS. Ok, we thought, a local hole-in-the wall. WOW! Breakfast Burrito was GOOD and HUGE! Coffee is filter or espresso (and good). Breakfast was so good that we planned our breakfast for the next day as well and detoured to Breakers before we left town. Great service, fast but not forcing one's pace. Looks like regulars are then as well (always a good sign). Lots of smiles, good food (fresh food!) and reasonable prices. The way to build 'em and hold 'em. Yum. read more

Went today with my mom... we always go here cause it's in my moms neighborhood... staff very nice ... drinks always refilled... my mom loves the breakfast and I usually get a sandwich or burger love the fries. It takes me an hour to two hours to get to my moms and it's so nice to just go down the street and have nice meal. read more

I have never written a review in my life. This was the worst breakfast experience. Our waiter was rude, both our plates were wrong, even when they fixed our food the cheese was still wrong. They forgot our order of pancakes, all the while never apologizing. I live 2 blocks away and will not be going back. Even when we told the owner of our experience, he still did not apologize. This restaurant does not seem to care about customer service. The people in the booth behind us also had their food order messed up and were not happy with the restaurant. Don't go to Breakers... the food was not even good. read more

This place is terrible, they are over priced and the food is not very good. The service was just as bad. I honestly could have got a better breakfast at Mc Donald's. Don't waste your time or money. read more

If you need to use the restroom, i've been told on the way through don't look towards the cooking area. Not the cleanest.

I went here with 2 adults and 3 children. $58.00 with tip. Not worth it. Coffee, was Like Water. Scrambled eggs served on top of my pancakes? Bigger plates? Not patronizing again. As every one knows Breakfast is the most inexpensive meal to make. Always suprized by sub-par food and high prices. read more

I'll admit that I have high standards for diners after living in Chicago and NYC. Breakers is about as good as it gets in Redwood City. Their skillets are awesome and the service is usually pretty friendly and prompt. There's a crazy African Grey parrot front of the store that makes all kinds of crazy sounds; from cell phone rings to cat calls. They are open until 2:30 pm for breakfast and lunch. I'd stick with the breakfast menu. read more

Breakers has a great location however that is the only thing positive about this restaraunt . The good is ok, but the ambiance , the plates, silverware, tables etc. is very shabby. Not looking for a brand new feel just a place that is well maintained and cared for. I won't be going back! read more
