    Eggs, Tabasco sauce, scrapple, potato, cakes, hollandaise sauce, and I asked for burnt rice toast, cause it's my favorite
    Petros K.

    I've been living in Philadelphia for the last 20 years, but I grew up in Berks County and my daughter still lives in Exeter. I must've driven by this place hundreds of times and never noticed it. Today on a simple Google search it popped up and I couldn't believe I've been missing it for all this time. Regardless I had some time to stop in. Tons of parking outside. Upon walking inside, I was greeted by a very nice young girl called Melana who was also my waitress. I ordered my usual breakfast fair egg scrapple, and burnt right toast. They offered something different other than home fries which was a potato pancake and let me tell you they were delicious. There's nothing fancy about this place. Just good old-fashioned, cooking and outstanding service. I'm definitely going to come back and I'll be bringing my family the next time. It's nice to see a new auction that is fantastic. If you're like me and you've been driving past this place. Take the time to stop in. I can guarantee you will not be disappointed.

    So as I write this I'm being generous. I've been here twice and this was a few months ago. I thought I left a review here but instead I put it on my IG. Anywho, firstly the food itself is good. The first time I went I had French toast and the second I had waffles. The first time I came here I felt awkward like I wasn't wanted. I chalked it up to me being alone. But when I came a second time with my parents they both mentioned they felt like they weren't wanted either. The vibe in this place is off. The staff are polite but it's a weird polite. I like going places that make me feel like I'm family and I'm welcome. The food is good but I can't get around the energy in here. So I personally won't be going back.

    EVERY SINGLE THING we ordered tasted AMAZING! I cannot reccomend this cafe ENOUGH!

    Brooks Cafe is SO amazing. In an era of Social Distancing, the truly do an amazing job. I ordered everything on FB, paid via Venmo, pulled up my car and drove off with my food. There are delivery options, like DoorDash, but I wanted to get out of the house, even if it was just to the car. We ordered a plethora of different items off the breakfast menu and the lunch menu and EVERY SINGLE THING tasted AMAZING! I cannot reccomend this cafe ENOUGH!!! The owner and the cook are truly great people, always giving back to the community. I just can't say enough about how much I love this place and these people. Pictured: cheesesteak, boom boom shrimp salad, burger, cafe salad, nutella croissant french toast, tuna sandwich, and a bacon/egg/cheese croissant. Not pictured: the incredible sticky buns we ate on the car ride home!

    it was okay not the best. The potato cakes were awesome! Spanish Omelette

    We moved into the area last year and it took a while for us try this place mainly because we rarely go out to breakfast. It's in a strip mall but the inside is as I'd expect. We've now been here 4 times. We've taken our families here when they come up for a weekend breakfast. The potato cakes are awesome and I recommend them to everyone. I really enjoyed the banana pancakes and my aunt loved the banana bread french toast. I haven't been overly impressed with the omelets as I prefer a little less cheese but it was still fine. It's a worth a try especially if you are local.

    This place was so good. Exactly the type of place I was looking for delicious fresh food with…read moreincredible flavor. Exciting drinks and mocktails. Unfortunately I was so hungry I did not take any pictures but the blackened shrimp tacos were amazing and the fries were delicious. The nachos we got for a starter were amazing!! Loaded and so fresh. Some of my party got burgers that looked amazing and the salads were beautiful and fresh and so big and filling. I live 1.5 hours away but we were in the area for an event and I love to find spots like this. I will be finding an excuse to come back here!!

I would try to reserve a table ahead of time. Dinner rush time when we went it was about a 45 min wait. Pro tip, if you're going for dinner you can just park in the USPS right in front of it. Parking is very scarce on the already small premise. Drinks - I didn't know what beer I wanted as a beginner. They were kind enough to give me samples of a few Stonehouse Burger - this was great an satisfaction my quest for a juicy burger in the evening Freshie chicken wrap - delicious, would definitely get this again Pita bread with cheese - i'm lactose intolerant. Nothing gonna stop me. This was delicious, especially the bites with the balsamic vinegar I would love to come back here again
