I just came home from Breakfastology Café. A new restaurant on River Road with an interesting menu of great tasting food. The place is nice, with most of the windows done up with art that reflects the theme of the restaurant. Owner Logan Henderson is passionate about the idea of taking menu items and making tweaks to normal breakfast fare that provide just enough change to make them interesting without being so far out there that they're unrecognizable from the staple they came from. Today my brother and I visited for the first time. We ordered Powder Puffs (beignets, but layered and fried; almost a croignet) and the Fryology (cripsy twisty fries with cheese and bacon) for appetizers. The puffs were crispy on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth on the inside, plentifully sprinkled with powdered sugar, and served with choices of chocolate, caramel, or raspberry sauce. We got the caramel, and it was a great dippable accompaniment (not so thick that the whole container wants to stick to the beignet, not so thin that it's watery). Pro tip: get the coffee to help cut through the richness of the beignet. The Fryology can almost serve as a meal in itself. Plenty of twisty fries (not curly fries. These are slices of potato but with a slight curl to them, with just enough cheese and bacon to add to the fried potato flavor. Kudos to not just drenching the pile of fries with sauce and smothering the crunchy texture of fresh-made fries! My brother got the Syrup Double Stack. Two pancakes, eggs how ya like 'em, house potatoes, and choice of bacon, patty sausage, or link sausage. The portions were good, everything was fresh, and my brother ate as much as he could and there was still food on the plate. I had the Dockside Data - Breakfastology's take on shrimp and grits, and a side of the house potatoes. The house potatoes are small enough and crispy enough that you start treating them like popcorn; grab a few, pop 'em into your mouth, and then wonder how the bowl got emptied so fast. With the grits, the cream sauce had just enough flavor to add to the whole without becoming the loud second cousin who never learned how to speak with an inside voice. Plenty of proteins with the Conecuh sausage and shrimp, and vegetables that weren't overcooked and added a nice texture and flavor to the dish. I'd peg the bowl as a great example of how to do shrimp and grits right, with properly cooked shrimp that weren't overly flavored with blackening seasoning. The restaurant has only been open for a couple of weeks and given that, the staff seemed to be doing a good job of keeping up with a room that was almost always full while we were there. Logan has a quick and adaptable sense of humor and is definitely following a passion. The kitchen appears to have the concept down and are putting out good food in a fairly timely manner. There's a whole other side of the menu for bagels, different breakfast drink concoctions, and cream cheese combos. Breakfastology has a nicely varied menu, imported New York bagels, a family-friendly atmosphere, and staff that keep the food coming. Portions are reasonable for breakfast; it's hard to go away hungry from this place unless you just ordered a coffee.... Revisits will be required to sample other menu items. read more

Visited on a busy Saturday morning and they were able to seat our party of 2 pretty quickly. Overall the vibes were cool but I just had some concerns that will prevent me from coming back. We ordered the little piggy appetizers and we were both let down by their lack of flavor. The sausage used had some decent spice/flavor but the batter it was fried in just lacked in flavor altogether. For $8 appetizer, I expected more. The vegetarian omelette was ok, nothing fancy or special about it. My friend got the grit bowl with bacon and a side of sausage. She said it was ok but nothing special. My biggest concern is her bowl had several chips in it. Also we overheard the gentleman behind us having issues with his meal. They prepared his dish wrong the first time and then his toast wasn't even toasted, so he had to ask for them to fix that also. For the omelette and appetizer it was $25 and that was with a water to drink. Their cold brews are $8. I brought my leftovers home and even my husband said the appetizer was a let down. Just lacking in flavor. I just don't think it's my style of breakfast place, especially for the cost compared to the lack of flavor altogether. It seems super trendy but just not for me. read more

Breakfastology Cafe did not disappoint! The Dockside Data shrimp & grits bowl was packed with flavor, the shrimp were cooked perfectly, and every bite was worth it. I paired it with a Dirty Alani, and it was the perfect combo. The food was fresh, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was great. If you're in Columbus, GA and looking for a solid brunch spot, Breakfastology is definitely worth checking out! Can't wait to go back read more

This is a very cute breakfast spot and I must say it's nice to have a place that has bagels locally. Eight dollars for a cold brew or a fancy Alani is absolutely crazy to me in Columbus. With that being said, their service was good with a lot of very friendly faces. I got a bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel, no cream cheese. It was a good breakfast sandwich. read more
