    Mediterranean Omelette
    Jason P.

    Why haven't I found this place sooner? Brigs is a well-rounded breakfast, brunch, and lunch place. Went for brunch this weekend and had the Mediterranean omelette. It was fluffy, beautiful, and flavorful. I've never had these flavors in an omelette before. It had spinach, fresh olives, feta cheese, Hollandaise sauce. My mouth waters fondly as I think back at the experience. Grits and English muffin were good. I also tried their pancakes which were also delicious. Our waitress was very thoughtful and friendly. Food came out quickly. Loved it!

    Not a bite was less than yum

    So much great food. Omgoodness. The reviews that steered me there are all on the money. Our table was covered and not a single thing less than delicious. I had the avocado toast with feta and bacon and "fancy" home fries. Amazing. My kiddos and friends had some form of pancakes (blueberry and chocolate chip). The home fries, perfectly seasoned. Service was also top notch and honestly for all the food we got it wasn't a bad price. Very packed for a 1130 crowd on a Monday, but it was MLKj day, so maybe that was why. This menu is vast tho. Will def go back anytime I'm in the area. Every eggs Benedict looked amazing.

    We came to this location after run club. The good thing about Brigs is that you can get a decent amount of food for relatively cheap and the food is tasty. It is difficult to get sat when you have a large group. We came at 8:30am with 8 people and had to wait a little bit. Not too long but it probably would've been longer had come later, so just something to keep in mind. I got the Knight scramble and made it southern royalty (grits instead of home fries) and I recommend not doing that. They do not season their grits so it was a little bland. Their home fries are flavorful so it would have been better had I kept it as is. Outside of the bland grits, the scramble was very good. And they have some of the best English muffins. A good, consistent breakfast spot.

    This restaurant is amazing! Even on the weekend, it is easy to find seating. I would have to say that this is the best breakfast diner that I have been to in North Carolina. The pancakes are fluffy. The eggs are cooked to perfection. My husband loves the Mediterranean omelette and my mom loves the Eggs Benedict. There is something for everyone. The servers are sweet and attentive. The ambience is comfortable, but not fancy. I plan on coming back soon!

    I around 10:15am on a Friday morning for a breakfast date. Our waitress didn't introduce herself which is a personal pet peeve. My date ordered chicken and waffles with a side of grits. I got blueberry pancakes with a side of bacon and home fries. I ordered a strawberry lemonade for my beverage and it was not sweet enough, personally. The food came 10 mins after ordering, which was extremely quick. I enjoyed my pancakes as they were HUGE!! It came with two but one would have been sufficient. My bacon was greasy, not crispy, and on the cooler side. The home fries were lukewarm. My date enjoyed their chicken and waffles but the grits were flavorless and not enjoyable. I tasted them and I concur. The prices are affordable with hit and miss on the food. The tables are fairly close together so you can hear the conversation of other guest, just as they can hear yours. Overall, it was an okay experience. It got really busy, so it appears to be a popular spot.

    Following up on my review below on in-restaurant dining. Yesterday, got take-out. Yesterday, I called and ordered 5 breakfasts from Brig's for carry-out. Four omelettes and one breakfast croissant. I called to order at 10:00 am and asked that the meals be ready at 10:30 am. (I had called earlier in the morning but they suggested that I call to order 20 minutes before desired pick-up time.) The packages were ready when I arrived at 10:30. Everything was well packed, and each of the entrees had the correct sides in the correct boxes. Everything was delicious and all guests were impressed. They included a variety of jams and some butter in the packages, in addition to utensils and napkins. I asked for and they applied a Senior discount to the meals. I'm very pleased.

    Great food Great service Great ambience Home style food, great eggs Benedict, fruits have cantaloupe my favorites. Also seating by the window on Saturday brunch feels great. I was first introduced as a favorite by my friend. It is now our favorite.

    David T.

    Wow, the amount of food they brought was humongous! The staff are attentive and quick too. The restaurant was packed on Saturday morning but with great staff service, large portions for reasonable price, and nice atmosphere , this is a must stop by place for breakfast.

    Sorry didn't get a pic of the food. Was too hungry lol. Great location. Great service. Staff seem to know the customers by name. Decent food. Decor and vibe is ancient. Would come back forsure! Haley was an amazing waitress!

    Pecan pancake

    Food was okay, service was good, restaurant is always packed. The value for the price is probably what's best about this place. Ambiance is fine, similar to diner style. Casual eatery that seems to do good business!

    Country scramble
    danelle b.

    I've been to Briggs before located in Raleigh, so when my friend came to visit NC, we were in Cary so I suggested Brigs. Whenever you go, know there will be a wait because they are that good! We waited maybe 35-44 minutes but it's so worth it. I decided to try something different this time and it didn't disappoint. I had the seafood scramble which consists of scrambled eggs with salmon, shrimp and hollandaise sauce with potatoes. My friend had the country scramble, and added mushrooms she also enjoyed it. I appreciate a restaurant that also has flavored creamer. That's always a plus! I will definitely go back and maybe try something else, this makes my third visit to Brigs, and every time I go it's delicious. I will definitely go back!

    Vegetable omelette.
    Jeanette N.

    We love Brigs! The omelette are always on point, the servers are always the best; especially Joanie, our favorite. Our favorites menu items are the Spanish omelette and the Veggie omelette. We also love the October pumpkin pancake special with pecans, and the July Georgia peach pancake special. The lunch sandwiches are fantastic and the platters are high with lots of fries. Don't miss out on their broccoli salad, as it's the best one I've tasted aside from my grandmother's recipe.

    Fried Chicken & Waffle
    Qiu L.

    We came here for brunch and they had a long wait. We waited more than 45min for a table of 5. Inside decor is just ok. Staff is friendly. Food is just ok. I was a little disappointed. I ordered and chicken and waffle. Only 2 piece of chicken fingers! They gave you a egg side though And the exterior layer of the chicken finger is very very thick! The waffle is good. But the chicken dragged down the show.

    Is there gluten free toast or more importantly Benedict options? I have a dietary issue and have not found a gluten free Benedict option other than making them at home.

    They definitely have GF toast. They do have a number of Benedict dishes. I don't know about GF Benedict options though. I don't think they have GF english muffins but I suppose you could ask for the Benedict to be on the GF toast....

So we pulled off, took out the trusty Yelp app, and this place popped up. Pulling it, it was clear that they were popular and busy. We went in and there was a wait, about 15 minutes. We decided to hang around instead of worrying about "making good time" and are glad we did. Once we got a seat, we received great service. Our server always kept our drink full, and checked on us just enough. We never felt like we were searching for her. Looking at the menu, I was surprised to see that the prices were not unreasonable, even though it's a very trendy place. in fact, they had a $10ish lunch menu available with a few selections that even included a drink. I was more in a lunch mood so I went that direction, and got a buffalo chicken sandwich with fries. Food came out hot and in a reasonable time even with a full restaurant, so this is a well oiled machine. For the price, I was pretty impressed. I would say the sandwich was about the size of your average CFA chicken sandwich, but had a bold buffalo flavor that I liked a lot. They didn't skimp on the fries, and the ranch complemented it perfectly. We finished up and our server was on top of things getting us the check, so really we still made "good time" on our drive to the coast. I would recommend Brunches to travelers and locals alike!

The hotel property is charming and thoughtfully designed, with a mix of tables, sofas, and comfortable chairs that create a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. We arrived 3/4 past noon and chose to sit in the study/library area rather than the main dining room. I would strongly recommend this option. The study is quiet and comfortable, while the main restaurant area was noticeably louder. The proximity allows you to enjoy the ambiance without the noise. The menu offerings felt fairly typical for this style of restaurant. We tried the skillet cornbread. It was served room temperature and on the dry side. However, the whipped butter that accompanied it was excellent. Unfortunately, the cornbread was not warm enough to melt it, which would have improved the experience. The Italian wedding soup was very good and served properly hot. We also ordered the local lettuces salad with chicken. The salad itself was fresh, but the chicken was visibly dry and tasted the same. Interestingly, placing the chicken into the soup made it more enjoyable. The double cheeseburger was average. The bun struggled to hold together under the two patties and cheese. The flavor was acceptable but not memorable. Our server was exceptional. Attentive, professional, and gracious throughout the meal. The service elevated the the mediocre experience. Overall, Peck & Plume offers a beautiful setting and excellent service. For a quieter meal, request the study/library seating. While the food was satisfactory, it did not quite match the charm of the surroundings. Would we go again? Maybe. If we did, we would order different items. But, we would request Brian as the server.

It's been an interesting journey--because while I absolutely respect the tradition, my palate has definitely evolved over the years toward lighter, more elevated, visually beautiful food. That said, sometimes you just have to lean in and experience the classics. Tupelo Honey had been on my list for a while, so during a recent work trip to Raleigh-Durham, I decided to check it off. The location is in a very nice, upscale area--one of those shopping districts where, if you see a Whole Foods nearby, you know the neighborhood is going to be polished, safe, and easy to navigate. Parking was simple in a lot across the street, and since I had a reservation, I was seated quickly on the patio, which was lovely and comfortable. For starters, I ordered the "biscuits for a cause," which is a nice touch knowing the proceeds support employee relief and development funds. They were warm and classic Southern biscuits--exactly what you'd expect. For my entrée, I went with the honey-dusted fried chicken (dark meat), a true Southern staple. It was well prepared, flavorful, and satisfying, especially if you're in the mood for something hearty and traditional. I also tried a cocktail called "The Debutante," which was pleasant and refreshing, and finished the meal with the butter pecan cheesecake for dessert. Overall, the meal was good--solid, reliable Southern comfort food--but if I'm being completely honest, it wasn't particularly memorable for me. I was traveling for work and dining on a per diem, so it checked the box for a dependable dinner in a convenient location. As a larger regional chain, it feels a bit like a rite of passage when you're spending time in the Southeast--something you try once to understand the landscape. Bottom line: Tupelo Honey delivers classic Southern comfort food in a polished, accessible setting. Service was smooth, the patio was pleasant, and everything was executed well. For me personally, it was a good experience--but not one I'd necessarily go out of my way to repeat. Still, as I continue eating my way through the Carolinas and beyond, I'm glad I gave it a try.
