The food was amazing, the service was friendly and knowledgeable. The ambiance was clean and welcoming.

Valeries is a fantastic hole in the wall breakfast joint. The only downside of this place is that so many people know about it. Usually the wait isn't too bad. You definitely get your money's worth and then some as the quality of the food is fantastic for the price. This place is great for small groups as large groups may end up waiting a long time to get seated. read more

I was going over to Trader Joe's and needed to get some breakfast so there I was. Seen this place at least a dozen times while gassing up at Freddys. They prepared my breakfast to tea. I can only eat egg bites and I like a little bacon. Not a slab. The breakfast was great. The coffee was decent. The price was good and the guy that waited on me was a gentleman. Kind of reminded me of an older down-home, kind of like cocoas in Southern California, but without the unnecessary frills. read more

Excellent food with great service. Their menu has a wide variety of breakfast options and even when they're busy the food comes quickly. Atmosphere is great too. read more

Great breakfast options, the fruit Belgium waffle was my favorite. Great customer service. My 5 year old loved her chicken and fresh fruit.

Clean- perfect Food- outstanding Red Head Waitress - argumentative I would of given 5 stars for everything went well except a question on three 1.50 upcharges. My 14 meal turned into 24 I simply asked the girl why the upcharges and she said you asked for toast, Cheese, salsa. No I did not. She asked me if I wanted these things and never asked or told me about the upcharge. Customer service 101. You tell the customer the price when Up selling and you don't be rude and argue with the customer about your lack of CS skills. Obviously a unskilled waitress that could use some training in service. read more

Breakfast At Valerie's - veggie Scramble with added cheese. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

The new owner is complete ruining this place. The gravy is worse than canned now. The sausage links are gross now. The ham was big chunks with prior owner. Now the ham in an omlette is super tiny squares which look like cat treats, the steak is now chewy fat, the decor is dark gloom of prison solitary confinement. The floors now make the entire room echo. We used to go here twice a week. Not any more. This new owner doesn't give a bleep about what the customers want. He also owns kitchen table, so expect the same their.. The restaurant was a B- with the previous owner. Now it's a D or D-....pathetic read more

OH MAN! I'm sure I'm just getting on board with countless others here, but PERFECTION EVERY TIME!!! BEST. BACON. EVUR. My 10 yr old was put off by school breakfast, soggy french toast sticks from her old school, but BVs french toast has made a believer out of her! YUMM read more

Breakfast At Valerie's - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

There is such a shortage of good breakfast spots in Vancouver. I was happy to find this spot. Breakfast and service were great - food came out fast and hot and portions were big. read more

Loved this spot. Great greasy spoon type of dinner. Food is great! Service good. Good spot for breakfast!

i have been here a few times, and i always enjoy the menu options. they have a variety of breakfast and lunch options. this is a great place to go to brunch with friends and family! i also find the food great quality and affordable! read more

This WAS the go to place for breakfast in Vancouver. I was a semi-regular for many years. I've also spent several decades in hospitality. I'll sum it up: save your money. New ownership is a disaster. You'd be better off at the Shari's around the corner- read more

Came here for the first time in years. So glad I returned. Both food and service were great. Chicken Fried Steak breakfast was very satisfying as was my Wifes French toast. Limited seating and masks are required to enter and exit. The restaurant was very clean and you could tell they clean the menu's between use. We will return soon. read more

thought I'd give 'em another try... it's been awhile so here is the straight scoop... no baloney... straight up... the unvarnished truth! the place is freezing cold and it looks the inside of a prison dining room (dining is not the right choice of word to represent the gray, uninviting environment...) staff is visibly unhappy, curt and abrupt... the food... okay, not great only okay... the prices are too high... okay, I get it! the owner suffers from suicidal depression and his only outlet is to share his depressive state with the rest of the world... I'm sorry that the staff has to put up with this... now the upside... lots of seating... no waiting... you can have two dozen tables to yourself... privacy abounds! my son and I had a simple breakfast... $40.00+tip! read more

Well it's definitely Not Valaries! Food is nothing what it use to be. Sausage was so good! Now horrible! No more jam is shame! Food quality isn't there! Not worth the money! read more

Talk about the place to be for breakfast!! You had better be ready to eat the portions are enough for two or three people! I had the chicken fried steak bowl with over easy eggs and it was amazing and my fellow driver Kyle had some enormous omelette and home fries biscuits and gravy was amazing too . read more

Breakfast At Valerie's - This is what I took home !!! Chicken fried steak platter!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Hands down the best breakfast in Vancouver. I haven't had better service or food in the area. It's been an adjustment moving from LA. There isn't one thing I've had on the menu that isn't good. It's totally worth the wait and it's cost efficient!! read more

It was ok, nothing fancy. Large portions. You can easily share a plate. They have great customer service

Nice greasy spoon place with huge portions. The bacon is thick cut and amazing. Omelet was good although the jarred salsa wasn't great in it. Pancakes fluffy and wonderful. read more

Breakfast At Valerie's - 16 egg Mexican omelet with pancakes and a side of bacon. I asked for the to go boxes with my order because I *knew*. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

The new ownership and staff are awful. They raised the prices and the food has gone downhill. I miss Valerie and her sweet staff and delicious food. read more

This place is a big breakfast house. Plenty of seating and really good service. There are a lot of options... so you can order truly a massive quantity in one breakfast... or go traditional... or go small... so anyone could order just what they want and be happy. The skillet, pancakes, and omelettes are huge!! All is cooked to order and yummy. We went on a week day abt 9 and no waiting, but on weekends... I understand it is very busy read more

Stopped by here as opposed to a chain restaurant like IHOP and it was a good decision! The place was packed so we had to wait for a little while before we were seated! Everyone walking out with boxes just confirmed some of the reviews that I read prior to coming into the restaurant. It was further confirmed when our order came to the table... the portions are huge. Split a meal. The pancakes were huge and delicious and so was the meat lovers skillet!! The service at the table was great! Prompt and polite. We enjoyed it and would definitely come back. read more

Breakfast at Valerie's is a great place for breakfast! Yes the place is a little noisy, it's bcuz everyone is enjoying their time while eating some great meals! The service(depending who your waitress is) can be very good like mine was today, and some other times not as attentive. Food is consistent and good, I've got no complaints about the food. Today for example my ribeye steak supposed to be medium rare came nearly well done, she took it back(apologized about it) and brought back a perfect one with less than 4 min. I did appreciate that a whole lot. Coffee is good, service is good(most of the times) price is fair, the place is indeed a little louder than your typical breakfast spot but it is a great breakfast place, I've been there now 4 times and will keep going back. Thanks for a HUGE pile of good breakfast! Went today for breakfast, the place was PACKED! Had to wait a little, just about 12-15 min. Great atmosphere, all the families having a good time, the food at this spot is great, the amounts are humongous!! Don't get me wrong, it's HUGE, it can feed a phat stomach with nooooooo problem lol. That's why I love that place, today I had the pleasure of being served by Austan or AKA speedy, he talks and serves as fast as a NASCAR car on a Sunday race haaaahaha!! Cool dude tho. So if you're looking for a family like restaurant with great food and great people, look no further, make sure you haven't eaten for the last two days so you can fit it all in your hungry tummy ;) read more

Great food that feels home cooked and excellent friendly service from everyone. Always busy because of their limited hours so get there early read more

This is such a great spot to eat breakfast. It was very busy when we went but the customer service was still there. The food itself was delicious and great portions. Our server was very helpful as well. read more

Wow the portions are HUGE here. The wait was about 30 min on a Saturday morning. Club sandwich was delicious! Not only does it come with fries, it also comes with your choice of soup or salad. The only downfall was my blue cheese salad dressing which was very watery. All this for $9.95. The prices are really good here and the country fried steak with the gravy was delicious. My friends who are big guys could not even finish their meals! read more

We use to come here every weekend when I lived in Vancouver. I didn't know it changed owners and I'm sad to see a great place go down hill! I was so excited to have a good breakfast with my kiddos and show them me and my wife's old go to spot! read more

There food is absolutely amazing best breakfast place around. Service however not so much recently was there and our waitress forgot about our table. We sat and waited for 15 min for her to see us and then I had to go to the counter to get her attention so we could place our order. Which was very disappointing seeing how I been there before on a busier days and that hadn't happened. Anyways the food is great the service not so much. read more

This is meant as constructive feedback to New Owners. I sincerely hope you will rethink your decisions of making such radical changes ruining Breakfast At Valerie's. BREAKFAST FOR 2 WITH DRINKS, TAX, & TIP $47 This new restaurant at the same location and using the same name is not any resemblance of the Breakfast At Valerie's previously. Completely different quality, quantity, and service. 1. Coffee is poor quality and very weak. It tasted terrible and was not hot. Warm dishwater. Fake chemical creamers. 2. Food was served cold. Not warm. Cold. What's worse than cold eggs? Cold bacon, cold French Toast, cold crepes, cold tarter tots, etc. 3. Food was poor quality. -- The eggs were definitely highly processed not fresh. -- The blueberries were what I assume to be frozen but left to thaw without being covered because they were shriveled and tasted old and icky. -- The "pancake syrup" was the cheapest thinnest kind in a huge squeeze plastic bottle, like you see soy sauce in at an Asian restaurant. No more hot syrup. -- "Butter" on French Toast was a cheap margarine. -- Whipped topping on the crepes was not real whipped cream. -- The bacon is totally different than before. It's thick but flavorless 4. The quantity of the servings which was what Valerie's was previously known for is completely different. No more plate size pancakes. The size of the servings are smaller than average compared to other area breakfast spots. 5. The place was packed on a random Tuesday morning at 9:30 AM and there were 2 1/2 servers so the service was slow. 6. When you can finally flag down your server to ask for your bill they tell you the total amount of your bill verbally with no breakdown for customer to review and expect you to hand over your credit card with no questions asked. No digital or paper itemized bill. Asking for a copy of the bill was an added delay. Then when paying they try to automatically charge 22% tip. Ahhh... I usually tip 20% unless it's bad service then I adjust to 15%. And, once again no receipt provided and asking for the receipt again delayed us from leaving. What a production to get the bill, pay, and get a receipt. Overall experience was a 5/10, F We will not be returning. It's sad that another Vancouver institution is relegated to annuals of history. I'm not a fan of Elmer's but their breakfast across the street is a little better for about the same cost, but with better coffee. Personally, I want fresh whole food. I don't want processed, frozen, fake, or budget quality food. I happily pay for real butter, high quality coffee, real half & half, real whipped cream, fresh eggs, real maple syrup, fresh berries. If I wanted gross fake poor quality food meal I would go to McDonalds. Left still hungry and a little queasy which developed into GI distress on the way home. I'm not use to eating "this" kind of "food." Not a good experience at all. read more

3 day old biscuit half the potatoes were raw half were burnt yeah omelette was okay this place sucks never again

I hear that the management has changed. This was my first visit. It was really not a good place to eat. People were waiting and waiting for their "food." My pancakes had a chemical taste. The tea was served with a full cup of water as well as a pot with water, so you couldn't brew your tea and then pour it. I had to wait for almost an hour. The man next to me was furious about his order. The staff looked dazed. read more

Great food, generous servings, reasonably priced and awesome service. Go early or be prepared to wait-totally worth it!

If you're coming to Valerie's, make sure you get there early or don't mind waiting. It's busy for a reason! The staff is friendly and attentive and sits people as quickly as possible, I even got to meet the owner who was just as friendly and sweet! The food is good! And has huge portions. We ordered one dish to share and the waitress had the chefs put it on two different plates and it was still enough to fill both me and my bottomless pit stomached boyfriend (never thought that would happen). The bacon is thick and very good. It was under $20 for two people. read more

It is probably cliche of me to say this, but I will anyways. Massive portions, but nothing sickeningly large like at Carol's corner. Biscuits and gravy are a heart attack, not the best I've had, but they're pretty great. Veggie omelette is definitely heavy on the onions and green peppers, wish there was more mushroom. And there was a generous amount of cheese which is great. I was trying to be a little healthier by getting this, but I don't think that really worked hahah. read more

Breakfast At Valerie's - Veggie omelette with hash browns and the buiscuits and gravy dish with sausage and egg (don't remember the name) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Normally good service and food but on my last visit they were clearly overwhelmed. I called ahead for a takeout order. I got there a few minutes before it was ready and then saw my order sit on the counter for 20 minutes before the got around to giving it to me. Paid nearly $40 for a cold breakfast. I asked if they could maybe remake the order so it would be hot and was told the best they could do was try to warm it up. Lost my business for the foreseeable future. read more

Great food, I had the perfect breakfast with eggs, hash browns, sausage links, and biscuit and gravy. All delicious. Britney took care of us very well! Excellent service. Ambiance was what you would expect for a diner. read more

Not the same, it has been bought out and gone downhill. Service was terrible, extremely loud and food was cold.

Seems like a new owner who raised the prices and lowered the service. Will not be back

Not good experience at Breakfast at Valeries today. Terrible service. The server who brought our food was not our waitress and just sat the food down without a word. They never brought one dish we ordered and not one person checked to see if we needed anything like more water. Plus the size and quality of the meal compared to Kitchen Table or even Elmers was not nearly as good. Live and learn. read more

Been quite awhile since I've been in this establishment, but not much has changed. Today our wait for a table was approximately 20 minutes, not too bad. It was just myself and big bro for a late breakfast around 10:30. Our server was a very pleasant and helpful young lady. Coffee came out quickly and ordered within 5 or 6 minutes of being seated. I wish they had a better quality coffee, that was my only complaint on this visit. It was hot & fresh....just ok flavor wise. I got the meat lovers skillet with the eggs over hard and sour dough toast, was very good and a large portion. My brother ordered sausage, eggs over medium, hash browns, and got a blueberry crepe as well. He said it was 'excellent'. We each brought home a 'Ruben' soup, and agreed it was quite tasty. Very happy experience overall. Clean restaurant. read more
