There were 8 men for breakfast on 02MAY2026. Jocelyn has been our waitress several times and yet she seems to thrive on a challenge and does an excellent job of taking care of her customers! I had the Baron skillet with the Angus roast beef and there was enough to bring home! It was cooked perfectly! Thanks to Jocelyn and Brigs for another wonderful breakfast! read more

Brigs is a solid 3-star brunch spot in Wake Forest. I'm not from the area--just visiting friends--so I turned to Yelp to find a good place to eat. The restaurant was packed and had a strong 4-star rating, so with limited standout options nearby, it felt like an easy choice. My husband ordered the shrimp and grits, and I went with the chicken and waffles with a side of grits. I'm giving it 3 stars mainly because of the chicken. What came out were chicken tenders, which was disappointing. All the photos I saw beforehand showed full pieces like breasts or thighs, so getting two small tenders felt a bit underwhelming--I was honestly caught off guard. That said, the waffles were phenomenal. The grits were phenomenal. And the service was phenomenal. Overall, the ambiance, curb appeal, and especially the chicken brought this down from what could have easily been a 4.5 or even 5-star experience. read more

This eatery is in a prime location surrounded by an enormous number & varieties of shopping experiences-including automobiles- medical facilities- the location is a short distance by a vehicle off a major highway & other routes. It is a few steps away from a Hampton Inn. The outside decor appears magnanimous- stands off- The parking is complimentary but spaces a little tight during peak hours. I was part of a group of eleven- we waited about 20 minutes to be seated - were given a buzzer. The restaurant was jammed packed with customers- probably because it was breakfast- brunch time. No greeter at the door but some chairs while waiting to be seated were available. The hostess was friendly. Our server was very gracious & efficient- patient The food was mouth watering. Every plate to specifications- very generous servings. I had the daily breakfast special- scrambled cheese eggs crispy bacon grits & toast with earl gray tea!It was so busy but the food didn't take long to be served- & it was hot & fresh!!There was one cashier but that process moved along well read more

We went to Brigs in the Forest for brunch after church on Sunday. If you go mid to late morning on Sunday, be ready to wait with the rest of Wake Forest getting out of church; we waited 45 minutes. But as always, it's worth the wait. No frills, good service, and consistently delicious and reasonably priced meals. I had The Beast - pictured below: a protein-packed go-to for my fellow weightlifting and fitness enthusiasts. Ok, yes, I went carb heavy but we're all allowed to splurge at times . PS for the manager, please get with the times and get a text service to notify patrons their table is ready. That poor young lady at the check-in desk ran the entire time inside and outside every time she had to let someone know their table was ready. read more

Brigs - The Beast Omelette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

Another delicious meal at the "go-to" breakfast spot in Wake Forest. It's (still) a busy place... Always a line. Waited about 20 minutes with a promise of 30 minutes. They use pagers so you can wait outside or in your car. Waiting space inside is limited. Service is friendly and efficient, although rushed. Seemed like they could have been short a few servers but the team working hustles! Had crab cake benedict. A pair of well executed house-made crab cakes atop a could-have-been-toasted-more English muffin. The eggs perfectly poached - not too runny, not too hard. Hollandaise sauce is a unique horseradish-base. The horseradish is subtle and adds a nice touch. Served with a side of fruit. Definitely a solid breakfast place. Plan your visit around waiting for a table, but they will not disappoint. read more

A dear friend and I met at Brigs Wake Forest location last week for a mid-week brunch. Little did we know it was going to turn into a 4 hour catch up session. One of those legendary afternoons that melt away in laughter and conversation. And why I mention that on a restaurant review, is because I firmly believe that the environment...the friendliness and kindness of every staff member, the freshness and tastiness of the food, the community feel of the space and the other patrons...I feel like every aspect of this very special restaurant contributed to our magical afternoon of kinship together. Now, is that experience on the menu? Is there a guarantee that this will be your experience? Of course not. But it's certainly worth experiencing for yourself. You never know what delight awaits you!!! read more

Brigs - Original Eggs Benedict with home fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

This was our second time here. We went for lunch this time. Meals tho at were ordered were the special burger The Caprese burger with fries, the Patty melt with sweet potato fries, the Reuben with fries and the chicken sandwich with fries. They have a special sandwich, burger and salad each month maybe? The caprese burger had a burger patty, fresh mozzarella, tomato and a drizzle of balsamic glaze and pesto spread. The burger was pretty gimmicky and wasn't anything too specials the best part the fresh mozzarella didn't taste much of the pesto probably because it was on the bun maybe if it had actually been on the burger to meld with the other items might have made a difference. The patty melt had lettuce, tomato, red onion and he added grilled onions and mushrooms. He enjoyed it and the fries had sprinkled sugar on them and were good. The chicken sandwich was called double trouble. It had lettuce, tomato, jalapeño, bacon, provolone and ranch dressing. The chicken was juicy and had a bite to it from the jalapenos. My Reuben was delicious. If the rye bread had a stronger rye taste it would have been a 10 out of 10! The corned beef was delicious and the sandwich had a perfect amount of dressing and sauerkraut! If I return I will get that again!! I also got the Almond Nutmuff A brown sugar and cinnamon glazed English muffin topped with toasted almonds and served with cream cheese. The cream cheese came on the side so you could add the amount you wanted and it helped mellow some of the sweetness from the sugar and had the perfect crunch to it as well! Yes, that's definitely a repeat item I will get again, Our server was great! Got everything right including all moderations. read more

This place was packed at noon on Saturday. It is very loud so this may not be the best place for a group to socialize. The menu offered a number of delicious sounding breakfast and lunch potions. The griddle combo came with 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, plus a side. The meal was definitely filling. It came hot hot and fairly quickly after ordering. The pancakes were bland and other than butter and syrup offered no other taste. Table of four. Solid average rating. read more

We stopped by Brigs in Wake Forest for breakfast and had a really enjoyable experience overall. The menu is full of variety and it's a solid place if you're in the mood for Southern breakfast staples: biscuits, grits, omelets, and all the comforting classics you'd expect. I got the Hildalgo omelette with a side of grits and bread which as you can see, the portion sizes are huge and tasted good. While the others at my table got chicken and waffles and a steak breakfast which they all really liked. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and our server was friendly and attentive throughout. It's clearly a local favorite with a steady crowd and a lively vibe. The only reason we're giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because when we asked for a coffee carafe for the table, the first pot we got was unfortunately burnt and basically undrinkable. We had to ask for a new one to be brought out, which they did, but it was a bit of a letdown. it was also super crowded and pretty loud for the space. Still, we'd definitely come back next time we're in the area, it's a great go-to spot for a hearty Southern breakfast. read more

Brigs - Brigs classic eggs benny - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

It was super packed when we arrived, so I had high hopes. We waited for 40 minutes and were finally able to be seated. Our waitress came right away and got our drink order. The place isn't really bad, it gives me the vibes of a K&W's. I was a bit disappointed in the prices of the combos because I guess I'm spoiled by the prices of one of my favorite breakfast places in Greensboro. A combo with (waffles, pancakes, french toast) only eggs and a side is $11-$14 whereas I can get Bacon, ham, sausage, eggs, a side and pancakes for $12 at another place like this. It took about another 30 to 40 minutes to get our food. Everything looked pretty good. It's probably just me, but I wasn't too fond of the french toast, but my mom was. My breakfast potatoes were a bit cold when I received them. We did get a free side of fruit because the waitress just brought it out. read more

My mom and I went to eat breakfast this morning and we were both very disappointed!! Eggs were cold, grits had more butter than anything and left a very greasy after taste!! My mom asked if the homefries had onions and pepper in and waiter said no, however, they were loaded with pepper and onion!! She asked for crusty bacon and got raw!! We will NOT go back!!! read more

Never have understood the allure of Brigs, or the willingness of people to wait an hour to eat here, either. The food is average and quite pricey, definitely not worth the cost. Very crowded dining areas, outdated decor and just very average food. There are better options locally. This location does have dedicated parking lot but it's always packed. read more

This is the best waffle I have ever had! It was so delicious--and so big I couldn't finish it! The menu was so full of delicious-sounding food that I didn't know what to pick! The waitress was very nice--she got me a new fork when I dropped mine. It has a very nice vibe in here too, with good music, a fish pond outside, and outdoor seating. Also, we came here with an older relative with a walker and she had no trouble getting in. I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Brigs restaurant was recommended to me by several friends, particularly this location, so I had high expectations. However, the food was not what I was expecting. The price was right on, but the taste was off. Improvements: The pancakes lacked a lot of flavor. I could tell that the batter did not have anything else other than water added--no buttermilk, regular milk, butter, or other ingredients that would bring some umph to the pancakes. You needed to add all of these ingredients on top in order to be able to eat pancakes as the taste fell flat without them. Positives: the turkey sausage was yummy--was not too salty and tasted delicious. Also, my waitress was super attentive, funny, and kind. Although the restaurant was close to closing she made me her focus and took care of getting me a menu, my meal, boxes/syrup, and my check. She took care of me and made me feel like a real customer! I gave Brigs a chance, but I think this may be my only chance. read more

I have a soft spot for this place. There are many reasons to neg this place -- it's a little rundown, the ketchup is oddly neither Hunts nor Heinz, the dining room's acoustics are absurdly loud, et cetera. But it's a an oddly satisfying experience. I can't explain why. The menu is pretty decent for a brunch place. You can play it safe, or you can experiment a little with the monthly specials or some of the more creative options. I would not ever refer to anything here as sophisticated, or refined, but it I have always enjoyed getting an early/late breakfast. read more

When you visit Wake Forest NC you should stop by Brigs of Wake Forest for breakfast. It's a popular place so come early or prepare to wait. It took us about 20 minutes. The parking is ample and close enough to walk. Brigs has several tables and servers so they provide good service after entering. Our server came over quickly to give us our menu and to ask what we would like to drink We had 7 people in our party so lots of orders. The server got everything just right. As for the food, I had the Belgian waffles topped with strawberries and whip cream. On the side I had some bacon and eggs. The syrup that I poured on top was super delicious. I felt the inches around my waist expanding just smelling the food. The bottom line it was a great meal and excellent service. So you'all stop by Brigs and fill your tummies with an old fashion breakfast! read more

Brigs is always a win! We love bringing our crew here because the food is always delicious and so affordable. We can feed our family of 6 for 50-70 bucks which is a steal because most places it's closer to 100. We have been coming for three years and never had a bad experience! read more

Food 4 out of 5 Service 3 out of 5 ( hear me out ) Ambiance 4 homely The food was well cooked and came out in a timely fashion. The service is where we get a bit of a draw back for me was the staff, we asked for several menu items that we never received and that was where the upset came. We had to ask for items we ordered multiple times. I think the restaurant is great but the service was not. I wish I could say differently but this was my experience I am sure yours will be better. read more

I enjoyed the house potatoes and English muffins. I did not enjoy the omelette because the eggs tasted precooked and powdered like eggs from McDonalds and fast food chains. I like fresh, real, cracked eggs in my omelettes. The presentation was right, but the taste was left. Also, I did not enjoy the orange juice. Overall, I will return again to dine soon. read more

I love this spot for brunch! It's a must do when in town. We were prepared to wait, and they quoted us 40 mins and it was about 45 when a table opened up.

ALL the food around us looked and smelled so good. They were festive for the holidays too with specials. read more

The food was good and the service was excellent. Can't believe how many people love this place, it's always busy. Just love a good breakfast!

Delicious food at a great price! Had the seafood omelet and was delicious! Recommend you plan on waiting in line for at least 30 minutes.

This is our first visit to Briggs and we really liked it. My husband loves a big breakfast on the weekends so I thought we would try it. We are still not eating in restaurants, so we got plates to go. We both got omelet platters. I had the Western and he had the Works. They came with choices for sides, I got home fries and English muffins. Hubby got home fries and toast. Both got a side of bacon (4 slices). Once we added salt and pepper the omelettes were great! My husband said his was full of meat and he didn't need the extra bacon. He also said the toast was really good. He liked the bread. I really enjoyed the flavors of the grilled veggies and ham with the eggs. The only thing that would have made this meal perfect was the home fries. They were a little under cooked. Other than that, delicious! read more
