    Blueberry Pancakes
    Pam R.

    Very popular breakfast spot! They are known for pancakes! Menu has the usual breakfast foods. Only pork meats. No turkey bacon or chicken sausage. They only seat complete parties. They have 20ish tables. Breakfast potatoes were crispy and very good. Interesting here in the South they called out the dishes and hand it to you.

    Looking for a true southern breakfast like grandmas kitchen? Here is your place ! Good service , cozy ambiance and incredible belly filling food. Every time I'm in Savannah , it's must I start my day at Clary's. The portion sizes are hearty and the fresh brewed coffee soothes my soul. Pancakes are the size of the plates and Omelettes are made for football players lol! Come hungry and wear stretchy pants !!

    A perfect blend of locals and tourists in an absolutely beautiful neighborhood. Service was friendly, lots of choices on the menu and your meal will arrive fast and hot. Lots of references to that movie based on that great book, definitely worth the visit.

    I really enjoyed Clary's cafe, it's crazy i lived here for years and never heard of it until my friend made the recommendation . i enjoyed everything about it, i would say it is a hidden gem but it was very busy that morning. we had a slight wait but nothing a walk to the park and back couldn't fix, it has a great location. The food was great, 10/10. i loveddddd the pancake the most omg. The ambiance inside is cozy like a place you grew up in. the staff was so kind to everyone coming in and out , some of the waiters were even singing as they went back and forth. i thoroughly enjoyed and cant wait to go back.

    Arrived at 10:30am on a Monday - place was pretty full up. We waited about 10 minutes for a table. We were not in a hurry so no big deal. The breakfast menu has a good amount of options. Corned beef hash, biscuits and gravy, and multiple omelettes looked good. I eschewed all of those and went for a breakfast sammy with sausage. Came with grits (perhaps an acquired taste but I love them). The sammy was on toast with two sausage patties. Quite filing. All around good taste. Service was good, ambiance was old school diner like. N*joy!

    Solid place, with solid to good pricing. Pro waitstaff and cooks hustle and get things done and done _right_. Not frou-frou, but the kind of comfortable place where you know you'd better get there before the rush because otherwise you're going to have to wait. Food was cooked to order and was plenty tasty, and felt like a value for the quality and locatiion. We only visited once because there are so many great places in Savannah, but my wife and I are both already looking forward to a visit or visits on the return trip we're planning.

    The best corned beef hash, and I'm a connoisseur major diner vibes and something about it didn't feel totally clean but how good the food was I will be back

    If you've seen the movie, Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil, or read the book, you know this place. I've done both, so stopping here for breakfast was a must. This cafe didn't disappoint, it's a Savannah classic! There was a line outside, but it went quick. Going inside, you feel like you stepped back in time. From the old Coke machine to the old fashioned counter, the ambiance here is awesome. That was all before we even got the food. The food was really good too! I had an omelette with grits and a biscuit. The grits were the best I've ever had. If you haven't read the book, go read it. If you're in Savannah, stop here!

    Great food and service. Will go again. No wait either. And affordable. We sat outside and the view was beautiful

    Over easy eggs, bacon, plain grits and two very large pancakes. 2nd dish is a Greek omelette with spinach, feta, peppers and tomatoes.

    From the moment you walk into this locals favorite breakfast place you feel the warmth of a southern welcome. Service is charming and attentive with not being too much. The breakfast are your basic reliable comfort fare, with the exception of pancakes so tasty and bigger than your head! So yummy. The restaurant itself is basic but not crowded or too noisy, especially midweek. We enjoyed it!

    Clary's is definitely on old hidden gem and staple in Savannah. It's been years since I have visited and recently when I was craving homemade corned beef, to Clary's I went! Surprisingly, there was NO wait; so I was able to get a table right away. The place still looks exactly the same and the food still tastes the same. I had the corned beef plate with egg whites and cheese grits. Everything was really good. I did get a cheese danish to go, which was ok; it kind of lacked flavor for me. Overall a great experience, besides the lack of flavor with the danish and I definitely noticed the increase in prices. The customer service was top tier from the hostess to our waitress and every staff member that approached!

    We chose Clary's because of our Old Town trolley tour and the fun story of it being part of a movie. We expected to have a wait time, but were seated quickly on a Monday morning, and breakfast was on our table in minutes. I ordered the veggie omelet, which was loaded with fresh vegetables. Because I am gluten free and passed on the bread, our server offered me a fruit bowl instead. My husband ordered the crab cakes Benedict with cheesy grits and said it was delicious as well. We left very satisfied after enjoyina filling meal with friendly greetings and service.

    Great breakfast spot in Savannah. Nestled within the historic district. This quaint Cafe has good ambiance, good food and excellent service. The place offers about 7 parking spots within its property & there is plenty of off street parking too. We arrived at about 10 am ( weekday) and they were busy, but we were sat right away. The staff was very nice and polite. We had a pleasant time and filled our belly with great food.

We had been shopping on Broughton street all day and were parked right in front of Leopold's (paid parking, $2.50 an hour). There were a lot of times when there wasn't a line but by the time we decided to go, I guess everyone else did as well. Fortunately it moved very quickly. It was a bit chaotic but the employee were constantly saying, I'll help who's next, and the line got a little messed up but there didn't seem to be any complaints. My mom and sister got one scoop cones, my brother got a milkshake, and I got a brownie sundae...with Savannah Socialite. So, SO GOOD...but serious sugar coma! Next time I'll just get a regular sundae or share with someone! It was $38 for the four of us but if you think of it as an experience, I believe it's worth it. There is also limited seating inside (it was too hot that day to sit outside but some people were doing it!) But people rotated quickly and we had no trouble securing a table. We were all scrunched together but no one seemed to mind...I guess everyone was happy with their ice cream!

I got their chicken sandwich, while the rest of my family got the Dubai chocolate French toast, Bubble and squeak. My grilled chicken sandwich had a vast majority of flavors varying in the sandwich. The chicken was my only set back, it came off as under seasoned and bland, while the white bread and cheese melted together with the fresh lettuce. I also got their iced matcha latte with lavender syrup, which I was heavily surprised from how flavorful and sugary it was, I highly recommend this drink to any matcha lovers out there. The Dubai chocolate French toast was beautifully put together and delicious, shared across my family. From what I heard the bubble and squeak was amazing and was not too heavy or dull in flavor and is a great vegetarian option. Overall, the atmosphere inside was very light and put together, the creme walls contrasted perfectly with the historic stone walls. If you or your family are visiting savannah Georgia, I highly recommend Collins Quarter!

That drink is a masterpiece and lives rent free in my head. I still regret not going back for another one while in Savannah. As a french toast lover who also happens to love pistachios and chocolate, I obviously got the Dubai Chocolate French Toast. I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the french toast, it was the perfect portion to split between two people without being overwhelmingly sweet. I hate when these things are humongous in size and then you can't finish it and end up wasting most of it away. The best part was Doki Doki' Pistachio-Crusted Pistachio Gelato on top - phenomenal! We also got the Moroccan Scramble as the savory counterpart to the french toast. The moroccan-spiced minced-lamb combined with scrambled eggs and toasted chickpea was so flavorful and satisfying. After this meal, I don't believe I could ever pass through Savannah without making a trip to the Collins Q! P.S.: Please come to Philly!

If you know, you know. The pastries here are absolutely worth the detour--and honestly, wherever I see a Paris Baguette, I do pull over. That includes locations I've visited in Northern California, North Brunswick, New Jersey, Atlanta, Georgia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and even the one here in Charlotte down in Pineville. It's a bit of a drive for me, but when I'm in that area, I always make a point to stop in and pick up a couple of their delicious croissant-donut pastries and marzipan or almond croissants. That's the beauty of this bakery--it's a chain, yes, but the consistency is what keeps me coming back. I have yet to be disappointed. Of course, I had to stop at this Hilton Head location--and I didn't come empty-handed. Food connects people, and bringing pastries to your host is always a winning move. I picked up three different varieties of their famous croissant-donut style pastries (similar to the well-known cronut): * Chocolate * Tiramisu * Mango And I added two large almond croissants that were beautifully filled, flaky, and indulgent. Everything looked fresh, full, and irresistible. The setup inside is easy and efficient. It's self-serve: you grab a tray, line it with parchment, use the tongs, and select whatever catches your eye--from baguettes to cakes to coffee drinks. Checkout was quick, Apple Pay was accepted, and the whole experience felt smooth and well organized. The space was clean, friendly, and inviting, with plenty of outdoor seating. Bottom line: Whenever you see a Paris Baguette on your radar, pull over. It's dependable, delicious, and perfect for picking up pastries to share--or to treat yourself. For me, it's one of those rare places that delivers the same quality every single time, no matter the city--and that kind of consistency is something I truly appreciate as a traveler and lifelong foodie.
