The first thing I liked about BR is they seated us 15 minutes ahead of their predicted wait time! The tantalizing menu makes it hard to choose. But you've got to pick something and I don't think you can make a wrong decision. The home spun potatoes were super crispy like they were twice fried. The tres leches pancakes were superb and magically vegan. The shrimp frittata had a nice savory smoke to it. Parking can be a bit tricky but there is a large lot about 400 feet away. read more

Food good! Service excellent! Atmosphere chill, not rushed. Had the protein scramble, seasonal scramble and Portuguese scramble, Mexican mocha, bottomless BR brewed coffee, and *coffee to go! The staff are on it, fast to refill water, creamer, take care and very chill. This could be my new breakfast place...Nicely done! PS Opens at 7:00 am so get there, when we left there, people were waiting to be seated... read more

Visited Breakfast Republic while in San Diego after a friend recommended it, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. One tip for first-time visitors, make sure to join the waitlist as soon as you arrive. They don't take reservations, but the wait moved much quicker than we expected, giving us time to walk around the plaza before our table was ready. Our server, Paulina, was fantastic. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. I ordered the shrimp and grits, and my partner and I shared the lemon cheesecake pancake stack. We also split the Breakfast Republic Prosecco bottle with orange juice, and everything was delicious. The atmosphere was lively, the food exceeded expectations, and I was pleasantly surprised by the value for everything we ordered. They also have some really fun merchandise that I'll definitely be coming back for. I had an amazing experience and can't wait for my next trip to San Diego so I can visit again. read more

I have eaten here several times and I like but I think the portions have become smaller and the prices higher. Hopefully they fix this. I went on a hot and humid day and they don't have A/C inside the restaurant or it doesn't work so I would be hesitant to go back on hot and humid days. I usually get the traditional eggs Benedict, there other variations but I think the classic one is the best read more

Came here for breakfast before heading to the airport. It was quick and easy. The food quality was excellent. The service was great too! I ordered a side of the grits and I can't stop thinking about them. They have the best grits around. It has a great location near downtown San Diego and a wonderful vibe. read more

Caught them on a bad day. It wasn't overly packed. Service was very very slow. We and others thought they forgot us out in the patio. My wife got a breakfast platter with Italian fennel sausage. It was terrible. Dry. Casing still on. Burnt. I got a huevo plate that was cold when they brought it. We showed the waiter the sausage and he took it and disappeared until he brought the check. He took a dollar off the bill. There are other places to try. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Breakfast Republic at Liberty Station ended up being the perfect spot before my flight to Hawaii. I had some extra time and decided to drive over for breakfast, and I'm so glad I did. This might become one of my regular places to eat whenever I'm in San Diego. The food was delicious and came out hot, fresh, and fast even though they were pretty busy. The staff was friendly and the customer service was great and attentive without feeling rushed. The whole place has a fun, lively atmosphere with that modern, slightly upscale diner feel. It's upbeat but still comfortable. Their menu puts a creative twist on classic breakfast dishes, and you can definitely see why people love it. Think Oreo pancakes, shrimp and grits, s'mores French toast, plus a good selection of local craft beer if you want something a little different with breakfast. It's playful and unpretentious, but the quality is there. Overall, great food, great service, and a really enjoyable start to the day. I'd absolutely come back. read more

It was our first time there this morning, and breakfast was AMAZING! My husband had one of the specials--the lemon cheesecake pancakes--and said they were HEAVENLY. Grant A. was our server, and he was EPIC. He truly went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. My husband and I were still talking in the car on the way home about what a great dining experience Grant created for us. The next time we're in San Diego, we'll definitely be back! read more

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! read more

Breakfast Republic - Jammin' Bennie & Mimosa -- 10/10 - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - San Diego, California

I remember going to the republic when the only restaurant was in North Park. With expansion came changes. Food is delicious but over the years they give you less. Maybe inflation is to blame. The service was ok. I assume to cut cost they didn't have a lot of waitstaff to help. Our waitress was also the hostess. I asked for silverware but it never arrived so I had to get it myself. The ambiance or atmosphere is ok. Liberty station is a cool area. If the wait is too long here just walk down the hallway to the market place. A lot of great restaurants there. read more

Overall, a really enjoyable breakfast experience. The food had plenty of flavor and everything came out nicely presented. The French toast was a standout, and the shrimp and grits were rich and satisfying. Service was good and the atmosphere made for a pleasant morning. There were a couple small things that could have been smoother, but nothing that took away from the experience. I'd definitely return. read more

Loved our experience at this location as they were so tentative to my son. My sister and her man (now fiancée) got engaged the day prior and the employees at the Breakfast Republic brought out a goodie bags of gifts to them after our meal. They did a phenomenal job of making this weekend more special. read more

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! read more

Great food excellent service. Our server was Grant A who was very delightful. I will definitely come back if I'm in the area.

The atmosphere is fairly casual. The inside is nice and fun contemporary cool, and the outside isn't all that different than most spots. The menu is not massive, but that was good, and they still had a wide variety. They had a few interesting specialty stacks of pancakes, some normal breakfast fair, some Mexican dishes, and other less standard fair. The service was decent. I do generally drink lots of water, so that was my only complaint, that I didn't assists have water to drink. Overall, it was a very good experience and I will definitely go again when I'm in the area. read more

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. read more

We sat at the bar on a busy Saturday morning and had Ben the bartender as our server and he was incredible! He made us the best chmango mimosas! An absolute must have :) I had the breakfast tostadas which are a delicious vegetarian friendly option. Lots of vegan choices as well if you're traveling with plant based people! The whole vibe of the restaurant was great even on a busy Saturday morning. 10/10 we will definitely be coming back! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

I came here for brunch and they do not take reservations so you can expect a wait time of over 60-90 minutes. I ordered the jambalaya and it was very oily and difficult to eat the whole thing. I would return but try something different on the menu that is a little lighter. The strawberry lemonade is bottomless, which is great but it is extremely sweet and you may have to water it down. read more

What can I say? Breakfast Republic did not disappoint. The kiddo and I had a delayed flight so instead of eating overpriced, mid airport food we decided to try this spot. Tbh, we always avoided it because the wait can get crazy but we got there early and had a great brekkie. I got over medium eggs with fennel chicken sausage and upgraded regular potatoes to their sautéed potatoes, Brussels sprouts with red onions, Parmesan and bacon ( these were *chefs kiss*).. however the star of the show was the Oreo pancakes. My son said they were the best they ever had and honestly they were a TREAT. Delicate and fluffy chocolate pancakes with icing and Oreo bits in the middle (no syrup needed, and you may get the diabeetus) but they were exactly what was needed after a late July 4th night. Thank you to Brandon and Paulina who handled us with ease and tag teamed this awesome experience! read more

Let me preface, this is only about their customer service. We called them wanting to go there to ask them if they had a dog friendly patio to meet our friends at since we had our dog. The phone rang for 20 minutes literally, without an answer. We hung up, called them back again and the same. Rang for 20 minutes with no answer. So we didn't go. When we got home, went to their web site, emailed them this quesion. Got a auto answer they received our email and would respond promptly. NOT! Never heard back from them. Boo! read more

3/5 Location was great. Had very nice vibes. Server was so sweet and kind. Place was cute! The food for me was okay. Eggs weren't very flavorful - I had a veggie omelette. Portions are big. Coffee was good. They have dairy milk alternatives. The gluten free toast was not worth it. The potato's are gluten free. read more

This is a great Brunch spot for meeting up with Friends and Family. We came to eat on Saturday morning with a Party of 6 and it took about 40 minutes to get a table, but it was well worth the wait. It can get pretty busy so I recommend stopping by to add your name to the wait list and then head over to Moniker Coffee Co across the way for a Coffee while you wait to be seated. They have indoor and covered Patio seating available. Their Spicy Bloody Mary was really good and the Morning Mule wasn't bad either. They also have Mimosa's with fresh squeezed OJ and other Juices available, and their Prosecco was also highly recommended. I personally recommend their French Toast "Rooster Flight", Chilaquiles, The "Hot Chick" Benedict, and BR Sammie. We also ordered their California Breakfast Burrito, but it was just ok, considering there are better places to get a California Burrito nearby. This is another great local Breakfast spot especially when you're near Liberty Station. It's definitely a must try, we will be back to try more of their Menu and drinks, and I'm sure we will be impressed again like we were on Saturday. read more
