Jalapeno Bacon Cheddar Sausage House Side Breakfast Potatoes English muffin
Lenny B.

Food 10 Out of 10 Service 10 out of 10 Ambiance a little too dark for Me so 8 out of 10 on that one.

Great service and gluten-free options. My partner has NCGS, dairy protein and potato allergies. They have gluten-free multi grain bread, and allowed him to substitute vegetables for fruit with his Steak and Eggs. My BAE Mac was good, both my drinks were beautifully pleasant. The staff is a vibe, kind and efficient.

We visited this location for brunch after arriving from the airport. My first impression was to leave because the restaurant dining room smelled like vomit to me. My Husband said that what I was smelling was the Buona Forchetta kitchen smells next door. We ordered: 1 Salted Caramel Latte hot, 1 PB & Elvis stuffed French Toast, 1 American Breakfast, 1 Chicken Apple Fennell Sausage side, 1 Brussells Sprouts and Potatoes side. My food was not good. The french toast was very soggy, I did not finish it. The Brussels Sprouts potatoes had cheese on them that was not melted. The Chicken Apple Sausage was still pink and seemed to not be cooked thoroughly. My Husband's American Breakfast with house potatoes was prepared well and he enjoyed it all. Our server was Abraham and he was great. He had a great demeanor and was friendly. The manager was super nice and friendly. The serving staff was great. The cooking staff did not do a good job for my taste. 4 stars for the staff minus 1 star for the food preparation and smell inside the dining room.

Jammin' Bennie & Mimosa -- 10/10
Delana A.

I can't recommend this place enough. You can't go wrong w anything on the menu-- even the drinks. Their vegan jammin bennie is something I dream about every night. Their service is great at any location (I've been to all of them, even in Los Angeles), & I recommend the downtown San Diego & PB location. **The coffee is definitely worth it!

Scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, sour dough.

We had the most amazing experience. Our waiter was more than caring. He was upbeat and so positive, excellent customer service specially since we had a toddler. Great food. Atmosphere was so welcoming.

San Diego Benedict

The location in Liberty station is charming and centrally located! Their selection of breakfast benedicts are my favorite! Crispy breakfast potatoes so good. They are well known for the Jurassic sweet salty bacon and you get three pieces as a side order. You get it on their popular Bloody Mary too! Our server was so friendly and attentive which made breakfast even better. We did not have to wait for a seat! Plenty of parking!

Located in SD, this place gets busy quick! There is indoor and outdoor seating, but you'll need to get there early because there is no reservation for large parties. The staff were friendly and accommodating and answered our questions. The food serving is huge! I had the Benedict with potato's and hubby ordered the omelette with potato's and toast. The coffee was strong and there is one house coffee that you can have unlimited refills. Imagine the heart palpitations! Definitely a cool spot.

Breakfast Republic in Liberty Station was an excellent breakfast stop. I ordered the protein omelette with home fries and wheat toast, and at the recommendation of my Uber driver I added a single pancake. That turned out to be a great suggestion. The omelette was packed with protein and loaded with bacon and ham, making it both hearty and flavorful. Everything was cooked perfectly and the flavors were spot on. The pancake was also excellent, light, fluffy, and a great addition to the meal. Portion sizes here are generous. Between the omelette, toast, home fries, and pancake, it was more than enough food. I ended up leaving most of the home fries and about half the pancake simply because I was full. Great food, big portions, and a really enjoyable breakfast. I would highly recommend Breakfast Republic if you are in Liberty Station and looking for a solid place to start your day.

TL;DR: Food: 7/10 Service: 0/10 Ambiance: 6/10 Location: 8/10 Stopped in for brunch with friends on a Thursday morning since we had the day off for the holiday. We waited a reasonable amount of time for a table for 4 on the patio, weather was nice and not too bad to be outside. First impression of the seating area is small and felt cramped. Walking space was limited and we had a small traffic jam between us, our host and the serving staff. While I'm excited to see a dog friendly patio, it does feel a bit tight for people coming in with a dog larger than 40-50lbs, I probably would not come here if I had my German shepherd with me because he'd probably be stepped on. Menus and waters came out quick and our server stopped in soon after to take our order. It took a moment for us to get our bearings to figure out what we wanted and order. From ordering to drink arrival was pretty quick, food was not far behind it all. Mimosas were great, the lychee especially balanced to not be too sweet with the lychee syrup used. Presentation was alright, felt like everything on my plate was just thrown haphazardly and barely enough hollandaise sauce for both Benedict's. The service was a sad miss for us. My husband was not happy with service regarding "bottomless lemonade". He had finished his beverage 1/4 of the way into our meal and it still took 20+ minutes and my friend having to flag down a different server to ask for a refill on his behalf, even though multiple servers walked past us. We saw our server standing by at one point then turned and walked away, even though all four of us were looking at her hoping to make eye contact to get her attention. After our food was delivered, we never saw our server Susanna again until she asked us about the bill, and even then, walked away from us before we paid. Not sure if she assumed we needed the receipt or something but it surprised us all she just left and returned with a receipt without any heads up. We have been to other brunch spots that were significantly busier and even out of the way for servers to pass though, and yet I've never felt so undervalued as a patron here. I probably will not return to this particular location.

Avocado Toast

The food here was so flavorful. Everyone at our table got something different, and they were all yummy, especially the steak plate. The pancakes were perfect in texture and taste. The Bloody Mary was just right. The wait can be a bit long, our party of 6 waited about an hour. If you walk up, they put you on a list and text you to let you know your table is ready. You can check out Pigment across the street while you wait! The service is great, from the host to the servers and bussers. Plenty of parking options nearby and lots of things to check out while you wait.

California Breakfast Burrito
Shirley S.

Meet up for breakfast at Liberty Station. At first, we were going to meet at the public market, but then I remembered that Breakfast Republic was at this location. I'm not sure if the server was new but the coffees were spilling all over the cups. My friend ordered a latte and the cup handle was very sticky. I had the house coffee brought out separately but also coffee was all over the cup. The looked around to see if it was just us and it was. We split the California breakfast burrito and I liked it that the server brought a second plate without us asking for one. The burrito was decent and filling. The rice was lacking in flavor I'm asking for extra salsa helps. Other than the messy coffee experience, service was good. Overall it was good.

Although this spot is cute, the food tends to be a bit underwhelming in my opinion. My favorite thing pictured here was the cold brew. I loved the frozen coffee as the ice cube. The strawberry cheesecake pancakes were disappointing. Regardless of the food, we did have great service.

Cluck Madame Benedict
Marc W.

If it wasn't for the subpar potatoes, this place would get five stars. I liked how they take your phone number and text you when the table is ready. They have plenty of indoor and some outdoor seating and it has a good vibe. I ordered the Benedict with ham and Gruyere cheese and it was excellent. The potatoes are baked and then sautéed so they're not super greasy, but they are completely plain with no seasoning and nothing else with them- no taste. The coffee was excellent, and the service was top notch. If they would just make those potatoes a little bit better!

Do they have high chairs?

Yes, we have plenty of high chairs for our smallest of guests! Looking forward to seeing you soon!

On old almost 15 minutes , are they even open today ? I've been trying to order online for pick -up but all locations say closed. Can't seem to find a any info. online or through their phone message with regards to being closed today . Odd.

It's Father's Day. They aren't picking up because they are too busy.

Is the vegan jammin Bennie good?

YES! I've had it several times :)

Is this place dog friendly? And are there gluten free options?(wheat allergy)

Yes for dog friendly and I'm not too sure about gluten free. The do serve vegan dishes so I'm sure they support that dietary need as well!!

Do they take reservations?

Unfortunately, they do not. First come, first serve. My advice is, get there early to avoid the 90 min wait

I appreciated the live music, though it did make conversation a bit difficult to hear. The drinks were sweet and strong! I recommend the Tangled Up in Blue The macaroni and cheese was the best appetizer. The wagyu tartare is actually quite spicy, and although tasty, we could not finish it because of the burn. The entrees were hot and cooked exactly as asked. You seriously get a bang for your buck with the portion size of the chicken parm! I also got some random corn surprises in my dish - I don't mind, but just something to be aware of in case you are allergic. I'm definitely coming back.

They have a smaller outdoor patio but a very large space indoors. We came right at 5 on a Wed and it wasn't too busy then but by the time we left at 7 it was packed. All night happy hour on Wednesday too! Their happy hour menu is slightly discounted (~$2-5) items from their main menu. We got some drinks, the chicken bao, brussel sprouts and charred broccoli. Broccoli was not on hh. For my drink I got the Grenache that was on hh. Unfortunately it was served super warm. It was a hot day but you'd think they'd put it somewhere cooler so it didn't get like that. I wouldn't get wine there again. For food the bao bun had a good variety of components. My only knock on it was that the chicken piece was tiny. That being said, it was well cooked and super crunchy texture which I loved. Brussel sprouts were delicious and crispy. The peanut sauce they use on it is perfect. The broccoli was decent. It ate much sweeter than I thought it would and the sauce made the labneh a little runny so it didn't stick to the broccoli well. Service was sooo friendly and very quick the whole night but we never felt rushed. I would definitely come back and try more.

It's got the decor, chairs, and art to match. Jessica was our server and she was amazing! She gave us lots of suggestions on what to try and what is on the menu since it was my first time here. She recommended the bloody Mary flight so did grab that to try! We also ordered the biscuits and gravy to share and orange juice. The portions are so large! So I am glad we decided to share the biscuits and gravy but let me run down each thing. Bloody Mary Flight: Honestly every single one was amazing. My favorite was definitely the pickle Mary! Everything tasted so delicious and was garnished beautifully. Well worth the 22 dollars. Biscuits and Gravy: Absolute perfection of comfort food. The biscuits were so fluffy and well seasoned. The gravy was also soooo good, just like my mom makes. The sausage in it was also cooked so well and juicy. I've never tried mashed potatoes with the biscuits and gravy but it worked very well! Orange Juice: Not a fan really, not pulpy enough and I wasn't a fan of the flavor. Overall this is definitely a must visit! I will definitely be back.

Hash House was such a great place to have brunch at! There was no line for a party of 6 on a Sunday…read morearound 1pm, and we were seated right away. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. The food was amazing! In particular, I enjoyed the fried chicken and waffle tower and their roasted chicken hash. I was surprised they didn't include a side of butter along with their biscuits, but I'll probably just ask for it next time. One important thing to note is that their dishes are HUGE. All 6 of us had our own dishes, but I would highly highly recommend ordering a couple dishes and sharing it family style if you're dining with a group. One note I did have about Hash House is how overstimulating the menu is lol. The menu had a lot of clashing fonts, colors, and clip art images, it made it hard to digest the menu. I didn't even notice some menu offerings because of how busy the menu was. Also, our waitress did initially charge us for 6 coffees, even though we only had 3. It was a good thing we caught that error on the receipt before paying. Overall, the food at Hash House is definitely worth coming back for.

As if that wasn't enough, we walked in and realized it was trivia night, which immediately made the evening even better. While looking through the menu, I spotted a salmon bowl. I'm still pretty new to seafood and have recently discovered that I'm actually a big fan of raw salmon, so I figured this was the perfect opportunity to branch out. Well... surprise! For some reason I had convinced myself it was going to be a poke-style bowl with raw salmon, avocado, cucumbers, and all the usual toppings. Instead, it came out with cooked salmon. Even though it wasn't what I expected, the bowl was actually delicious. The funny part is I learned something about myself... I definitely prefer raw salmon over cooked salmon. Not a bad discovery to make over a good meal! The atmosphere was lively without being overwhelming, trivia kept the energy up all night, and the service was friendly from start to finish. Great place to grab a drink, catch up with friends, and maybe even learn something new about your own taste buds.

They have protein pancakes that are low calorie and gluten-free. And, they taste pretty good. Not as good as their regular pancakes, but, good enough to satisfy my pancake craving. I have breakfast there one or two times a month. I always have the same thing - protein pancakes and decaf coffee. And, the portion is so huge that I take most of it home and have the pancakes for breakfast the next several days. Enough about the pancakes. Let's talk about the service, which is what compelled me to write this review. A few months ago I sat down and my server, Erick, came up to my table and said, "Protein pancakes and decaf?" I was blown away! He remembered me and my order. I am not that regular a guest. He is just that amazing. And, it doesn't stop there. A few minutes after delivering my food, he brought a to-go box, because he knew I always take most of my meal with me, and I'm always in a hurry. That's not great service - that's extraordinary service! At one to two times a month, Erick makes me feel like a 5 day a week regular. I wish I could give Breakfast Republic 14 stars; 5 for having protein pancakes, 4 for their taste and 5 for the extraordinary service.
