There have been some changes since my last visit a decade ago. The apple juice was the main one. Next time I am definitely getting the churro waffles! I do love that this spot uses cinnamon in many items. The Mexican Coffee was excellent with a whole stick of cinnamon served in it, and sweetened with piloncillo. It's so much better than any other type of sweetener! For the really busy mornings, you can join the waitlist through Yelp, once you're within a couple of miles away. Luckily it wasn't super busy when we arrived at 9am on a Saturday morning, and there were plenty of seats available. They also have three tables outside for those with dogs, or who just want to enjoy the fresh air with their breakfast.
The breakfast burritos are incredible here! Wide variety of ingredients, flavor and more. My wife tried the soyrizo burrito whereas I grabbed their carne asada burrito. Both were loaded with veggies, guacamole and more. Small space but there is still seating and the food is always made fresh and to order, along with a fresh salsa. Very friendly service and looking forward to returning soon. Would definitely recommend trying their staple carne asada burrito and going from there!
I've been here several times in the past back when I was really into Benedicts, and this place made some delicious ones. The pork belly Bennie used to be my go-to every time. But now that I've kind of moved on from my Bennie phase, I found myself staring at the menu wondering what to order instead. After going back and forth for a while, I decided on the Serrano Chicken Sandwich - and it ended up being a great choice according to our server. It had a really nice spicy kick, and I especially loved the crunchy onions that added extra texture to every bite. I picked the mixed greens salad as my side, though the dressing made it a little too sour for my taste so I couldn't finish it. My boyfriend, who's a big omelette person, ordered the veggie omelette. It was decent, though I do wish they offered more than just 4 omelette options on the menu. Overall, still a good brunch spot with good food and a nice atmosphere.
HUGE fruity pebble pancake, SO good. Their syrup is different, it's amazing but it not a regular syrup from the store. All the food is bomb. Salmon Benedict, decent size too. Service is quick. Only downside is the hours and that since it's smaller, the tables are SO close together. Def packed in tight. Wish it was open past 2:30 but makes sense for a bfast place
I loved the food. Chicken and waffles soooo good. I love that everything is freshly made and organic. The sausage and gravy was really good and made from scratch. Dont miss out on the champagne flight, you get jars not glasses lol. Loved the guava. Reason for 3 stars is service is not the best. Its young kids that seem to be poorly trained. They dont have the proper etiquette as for as service. We had to ask for everything such as silverware menus and drinks. They need to be more attentive and aware of their tables.
The brunch here is good, but I wouldn't consider it well-valued. I ordered a Benny Sampler for $25, which comes with three eggs bennys and a side of potatoes. The bennys were traditional, rancho, and pork belly. The traditional ham was dry and tough to cut through. The pork belly was tender, but had an odd inclusion of pickles. The rancho was great with tender carnitas and avocado sauce. Also ordered the breakfast burrito ($18), which included eggs, bacon, hashbrowns. It was mostly filled with hashbrowns/eggs, and limited bacon. The accompanying green sauce was a good dip. Egg Surcharge - FYI there was a $2 egg surcharge for ordering items with eggs. I understand that egg prices were sky high during the shortage, which would justify the fee. However, egg prices have come down since then. The owner needs to consider the marginal fluctuation in egg prices as the "cost of doing business". Don't spring that undisclosed fee onto customers.
It was okay, but not somewhere I'd return. We waited about 30 minutes for our food, and since we sat outside, service felt less attentive. I also waited a while for a hot chocolate refill, but they don't offer refills. The $14 waffle was fine but overpriced for not coming with a side. The "skillet potatoes" were more like garlic fries, which I didn't like. My friend's chicken sandwich was a little soft and greasy, but she did enjoy the fries and ranch. The hot chocolate was the highlight. Overall, underwhelming for the price.
I visited Early Bird on a random Wednesday to grab brunch with my mom, and what a wonderful place it turned out to be! Early Bird is a seat yourself type of location, or at least that's how it was when we visited. I grabbed a couple of menus and found a table for my mom and me. My mom ordered a hot house coffee and I got a latte. My mom said that their house coffee was good, which is a crazy good compliment coming from her! The food itself was also very delicious and the price did not break the wallet. Again, when I went, it was relatively quiet (maybe only one or two other parties there), but our server was still very attentive. I believe her name was Cassie or something along those lines? She was absolutely wonderful and so sweet! I can't wait to swing by for some brunch again soon :) Definitely suggest giving them a try if you're in the area!
Tried Early Bird with my friends for a Sunday brunch because we were in the area. We wait 30 minutes to be seated even though there were a couple tables open. The tables were put together pretty close so you move the chair it sometimes back into other people's chair. The service was fast but the food was ok. The omelette was ok there was nothing special about it (2.5/5). Both of the benedict was pretty good (3.5/5) but the rancho benedict had a very hard English muffin that was impossible to cut. The griddle cake had a huge portion but was very sweet in my opinion (3/5).
Service: Our service was amazing! We are definitely going to be coming back! Food: All of the food was so good. The Benedict was our favorite. The loaded fries were very salty. Seems like there was like a lot of soy sauce. Outside: They have a lot of parking and had a few tables outside. Inside: They have a decent amount of tables considering the size of the restaurant. It is decorated very cute and pleasing. It was very clean.
Early Bird is one of my new favorite breakfast spots! It's definitely a busy place, but the nice thing is Yelp gives you the option to join the waitlist ahead of time, which made the process super convenient. The food was delicious. I ordered the Churro Waffle, which was perfectly balanced--not overly sweet--and the added butter on the side was a nice touch. I especially enjoyed the bananas on top, though I do wish there were a few more of them. I also tried the turkey sandwich on sourdough with sweet potato fries, and it was amazing. The combination of Gouda cheese and the aïoli gave it a rich, savory flavor that really stood out. On top of the great food, the staff was kind, friendly, and very attentive, which made the busy atmosphere feel relaxed and welcoming. If you're looking for a great breakfast or brunch spot, I'd definitely recommend checking out Early Bird!
Because of how many reviews this place had, I had higher expectations. However , this could be because we're vegetarian. Might be a great place for omnivores. My husband thought the pancake was good but I'm not sure what level of pancake connoisseur he is. Benedict, chilaquiles, grilled cheese, French toast were good but nothing exceptional. I'd come back if others would want to go but it wouldn't be a place I'd crave and ask to come back to. The side potatoes as well as the side hash browns both have onions in it fyi if you don't eat onions. They won't seat you until your whole party is present. I appreciate their flexibility with substitutions, however. They don't say," I'm going to charge you $2 for avocado even though you're not getting meat." They also charge you less if you get chilaquiles without meat. You have to appreciate that because many restaurants charge you full price regardless if you omit the protein of the dish. So thank you .
Pretty packed on a Sunday, but joining the Yelp waitlist helped a lot and the turnaround time was quick. + Traditional Eggs Benedict w hash brown side ($18.50): perfectly runny eggs over layers of country ham on a toasted English muffin. Liked the side of fresh tomato. The hash browns were elevated as they seem to fry it w grilled onion and cheese. Overall, pricey for eggs Benedict but yummy. (7.8/10) read more
Good eats is always on point here!! Danielle was our waitress who was exceptional in all her customer service ways. The place is usually busy but their food and service is top notch and does not fail. One of our best go-to spots for breakfast bunch. read more

My goodness, this place is delicious! I had the breakfast burrito, buckwheat pancakes, Skillet potatoes and grilled cheese sandwich along with the Mexican coffee to drink. Everything was absolutely delicious! Our Server Cassidy was amazing! Definitely come check this place out! Bonus, they have a yelp check-in that you can do from your phone to be on the waitlist. read more
As soon as I saw Lomo Saltaldo on the menu, I was very intrigued. How could a small American style Cafe have something as exotic as Lomo saltaldo which is a dish more commonly found at Peruvian restaurants that specializes in it. I just had to order it to see how it compares. I was kinda disappointed because it was not like the real deal at all. It's missing the Peruvian spices and nuances that make it authentic. For example, it lacked the Aji Amarillo chile pepper which would have brought more depth, smokiness, and spiciness to the dish. The Lomo saltaldo here was very plain and one-dimensional. It was basically like soy sauce, fries, beef, red onions, and bell peppers. It also lacked the thick gravy like sauce. The fries were also cut too thin so it absorbed too much of the sauce and got too salty. The salmon sandwhich was delicious though. It was a thin waffle so you could easily grab it and have it fit in your mouth without it falling everywhere. Very creative of them to use waffle. I would recommend you stick to the American style food here, their kitchen is probably stocked with only American ingredients so their renditions of other countries' cuisines could be lacking. read more

I love breakfast food!!! This was our first stop of the day, and we had a great experience and time eating here. The Mexican coffee is pretty unique since it comes with a cinnamon stick you can stir in with your coffee. They also provide refills for the coffee, which is great! Our server was very helpful with answering our questions and helping us decide what to get since we had never been here before. Really good vibes from this restaurant all around. It seemed like everyone there was enjoying themselves and their food. read more

Service was great, there's only one restroom. The restaurant was very simple but cute. The food was delicious, the chilaquiles were very tasty. The mimosa flight was very tasty and had a great amount of "happy" in it. Lol The waffle was also delicious. read more

First visit for lunch with friends. Upon arrival, outside sitting allows for you to bring your fur babies. When opening the door to find my friends, it was quite bustling and lots of chatter since there so many customers. Quite popular for sure and since they are only open till 2 pm during the week, I now know why. Since I'm a clean freak, of course right away I noticed dirty glass which looks into the kitchen, walls that had been written on with crayons, my seat had sticky syrup on it, the floors needed some attention, our salt & pepper shakers were kind of greasy. However our waiter was kind, brought us water with lemon slices (upon request). He didn't take too long to come over for our orders, and kindly allowed us to have 4 separate bills. The menu items were breakfast and lunch items, but I noticed how pricey. However isn't going out expensive nowadays!! I ordered the turkey sandwich which was quite large and filled with lots of turkey, slices of avocado, Gouda cheese, lettuce and tomato plus a garlic aioli which I asked for it to be put on the side. Also I had the choice of regular fries, sweet potato fries or their homemade Quinoa salad which is what I chose and really enjoyed it. It had bits of dried cranberries mixed with a balsamic dressing. I was impressed with the size so my bill of $19 and some change was worth it. I didn't have a drink. One friend had the HW Omelet (pictured). She said it was pretty good, but felt it had more tomatoes than meat but overall the omelet (eggs) were good. Another friend had the fried chicken salad and loved it (also pictured) and lastly my other friend had the steak and eggs which came with bread and potatoes (pictured as well). she thought the steak was a bit chewy but overall she liked it. The potatoes did look a bit greasy to me. There is plenty of parking in the large lot since it's a strip mall. Didn't use the facilities so not sure about the cleanliness of them. read more

My dish was a 4, his was a 2, so we're averaging at a 3. We came here on Memorial Day for brunch, used Yelp waitlist and got seated within ~15 minutes of arrival. Seating was awkward, the hostess handed us our menus at the door and pointed out the table we should be seated at. We both got the Mexican coffees, he had Chef Vic's Chilaquiles Verdes again (cuz he couldn't remember if he liked it the last time we came) and I got the chicken and waffles. The Mexican coffees, I think typically called "cafe de olla," was meh. They add a cinnamon stick into each cup for aesthetic value, but you don't get much of the cinnamon flavor. We've gotten cafe de olla at other places that were amazing, so this one was definitely disappointing. It actually took a while for our food to come out (not complaining cuz they were super busy, just noting), and his chilaquiles and the steak were lukewarm at best. Mine was perfect temperature, so they probably just didn't time it the best for both dishes to come out at the same time. The steak and the chips on the chilaquiles were super dry.. so he actually had to request more green sauce on the side. Very little egg compared to the last time we went. Overall, just super.. meh. My chicken and waffles, on the other hand, was great. I loved the texture of the breading, loved the creamed corn sauce, loved the overall cohesiveness of each bite of waffle, chicken, corn, and arugula. Would definitely get this again! But probably not get the Mexican coffee or chilaquiles verdes on the next visit, if there is one. Also, one of his pet peeves is getting handed the check in the middle of our meal, when we're just halfway through.. and getting the receipt picked up before we're done eating. Service felt very transactional and we felt super rushed. read more
Wow, wow, wow incredibly disappointing. This is my edited review please look at the pictures to see how I was treated by the mangers son in my message box. I did take down the race of the person who took my order, I only said the race and description (not just his race) so they could know who to retrain. DONT LET UNTRAINED PEOPLE ANSWER THE PHONE! Here is why: 1- It took so long to take my order I drove to the restaurant before I got off the phone (10 minutes to place a phone order) 2- I ordered a breakfast burrito with no egg due to sever allergy with ham, sausage, and bacon. I even said I'll pay extra for the meats. I asked for the eggs that come in the burrito to be on the side and to add Avocado. What did I get? A burrito with egg, only ham, no Avocado, and no eggs on the side $18 for the pictures below... 3- I ordered a side of fruit, what I didn't order was hair in my fruit. I am a Long haired blond and my husband is black. This hair is short and brown (seen on green melon). 4- when I came back for it to be refunded NO ONE KNEW HOW TO REFUND THE PURCHASE. They had to call up a server to help. Now, I asked for the manger because by this point I'm upset. They tell me there is no manager! How is there no manager on a Sunday morning at 8am at a breakfast spot. I asked to leave my phone number so we could talk about this and make things right but I was denied... hence the review. I have been an elite helper for 2 years now and this has been my first one star review in a year. That's saying som I am really disappointed because I go to the church right across the street and everyone has said good things... but I did not experience good food or good service. I'll I got was hunger pains before church service with no time to get something else. I am never coming back and I recommend that you steer clear of "Early Bird Cafe" read more
I have in the past looked for breakfast/brunch places on Yelp and this restaurant always came up in the search (for a great reason) I FINALLY after so many years have had the opportunity to try it and I will be coming here every time I want a good breakfast. The location is easy and so much parking available. The service is friendly and attentive and the food is top notch. There is something for everyone in my family and more. It can get super busy but if you go at the right time, then you're golden. Very open space, large restaurant with booths and chairs and ample seating. Everything things I have tried thus far has tasted great: omelets, waffles, steak, coffee and the mimosas. Can't wait to come back! read more

Great place for brunch. Nice clean cafe located in the stater bros mall. Came as a party for 2. Ordered Benedict sampler (10/10) and churro waffle (10/10). Seriously, the churro waffle is sooo good, honestly better than some churros I've had. Hash browns that came with the sampler were nicely seasoned with cheese, onions, and were nice and crispy on the outside. Mexican coffee is a must get. Basically coffee with a cinnamon stick. Dishes are a little pricey for what you get, but the flavors are on point. Service was fast because it was a weekday. Not sure how it is when it gets busy. Definitely will be back. read more

Haven't been here in years so it was like trying it for the first time since I don't remember anything. Got seated right away on a weekday during brunch time. Ordered the Serrano chicken sandwich which the waitress said was a new item and it was SO good - grilled, juicy chicken, fried Serrano pepper, crispy onions, melted cheese on brioche bread with a side of fries. However for $18.99 it was pricey for the size. Overall their menu is pretty pricey and that's not including their new egg fee for an extra $1.75 for current egg prices. In my opinion the restaurant should feel cleaner and a little more upscale for the prices but the food is at least good. read more

This spot has a lot of unique brunch items with hella big portions. I was super hungry before eating but was still not able to finish my food. My friend and I ordered the carnitas chilaquiles, duck confit hash, and brioche french toast to share. Everything tasted really good and standard for brunch food. I really recommend ordering the duck confit hash since they give a lot of duck meat and it's not a common item you find at most brunch places. The brioche french toast was another item I saw a lot of people ordering and it was warm and fluffy. It wasn't too sweet and I liked the addition of the nuts but didn't really like the applesauce pairing they put on one of the bread pieces. The servers are all really nice and friendly and the inside of the restaurant is really big so there's actually a good number of tables. I recommend putting your name down on the waitlist ahead of time so you don't have to wait too long as there is a bit of a wait on weekends. Would recommend and definitely would want to come back to try some of their other stuff. read more

Even the 30 plus minutes wait time didn't make me remove a star! Yeah, pretty much it was that good. Just look at the pictures I took! We wanted to eat breakfast after picking up our son to go to Disneyland and this popped up when we googled. Everything that we ordered came out soo good, regardless of the the wait time, which we didn't mind as long as the food's amazing!! It was a small restaurant but to our surprise, it's constantly packing people. We will definitely come back when we're in town! read more

Came for breakfast on a Monday morning around 9 am as a group of 4 and were seated right away. The menu has a lot of variety ranging from savory to sweet and the service was quick. For drinks, we got regular coffee, Mexican coffee (which came with a huge stick of cinnamon in it), and orange juice. For food, we got the spicy avocado toast, traditional eggs benedict, country chicken & waffle, and rib eye chilaquiles, which wasn't on the main menu but they had a little sign on the table promoting it so we decided to get it. The portions are quite large and we all really enjoyed the dishes. We finished almost everything except the chilaquiles because it was huge! The plate itself was even a lot bigger than the rest. Our total was about $105 before tip. For the amount of food we got, it was totally worth it. read more

This is my second time coming here and I swear my first time was a lot better. The prices are more expensive than I thought it was. But anyways I got the lomo saltado because of similar prices but this one has steaks. Service is pretty good for a Wednesday, checked on us a few times and refilled our water. The inside can get packed but there's a lot of tables that can be moved around. read more

As a bay area native, I take brunch very seriously. There's a huge culture of brunch up in the bay, and ever since I moved down to socal I've been disappointed in the brunch scene. I was so happy to finally find Early Bird, a fantastic restaurant that delivers a delicious and unique brunch in a cute and funky atmosphere! My partner & I ordered the smoked salmon waffle with has browns, the buttermilk chicken & waffle, and an iced coffee. Smoked salmon waffle: 5/5. I was afraid of the capers, but its actually blended into the cream cheese and I didn't taste it at all! The waffle was so delicious and the has browns were not your typical has browns. Upon closer inspection of these potatoes I found sweet grilled onions in them! No wonder they were so delicious. Buttermilk chicken & waffles: 5/5. Seriously, so damn good. The chicken was so juicy and crispy, and the sauce went amazing with the chicken and waffles. The waffles at Early Bird go so hard. They're thin and slightly sweet, and just go with everything. Iced coffee: 4/5. I'm a bit of a coffee snob (we make our own pour-overs and cold brews at home), but I just needed coffee. It was just okay. But 4 stars anyways and I'd still recommend their coffee, because FREE REFILLS! Order one & share with your partner ;) Even though I live in Irvine I will definitely be coming back to Fullerton just to have brunch at Early Bird. Definitely put your name on the waitlist on yelp if you come on a weekend, because they get very busy! But trust me when I say -- eating here will be worth-it! read more
Located in a shopping center with plenty of parking. Indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly, efficient service. Absolutely loved the smoked salmon waffle ($19.50) Thin. Sweet waffle. Fresh salmon, touch of dill. Loved the Benny Sampler ($22.50) Rancho and Pork Belly were awesome. Loved the spicy pickle on the Pork Belly. Traditional was a little salty I did not care for the Duck Confit Hash (It tasted burnt to me. It can get crowded on the weekend but will definitely be back read more
I had the pleasure to try this place out several weeks ago non the recommendation of my son. I ordered the Biscuit & Gravy with scrambled eggs and bacon. It was so delicious. The restaurant is clean and the staff are attentive. Our phenomenal waitress Gabby checked on us periodically to see if we needed anything else. I will definitely try this place again to try the other items on their menu. read more
We came here for the second time because of the waffles, they're thin and crispy and full of flavor! I got the churro waffles this time and they were SO good. My husband got the chicken and waffles and they were good but the only thing is that they drenched them with the gravy and that made the waffles kinda soggy. The Mexican coffee was delicious and it did not need any creamer or sugar. It's made to perfection! Service is friendly and we got seated right away since I joined the wait list before arriving. We also got our food relatively quickly. Ambiance is casual but overall it's a cute spot to get a delicious brunch! Overall I recommend coming here for a nice casual brunch! read more

Having been to many brunch places I would land Early Bird in the middle. Pricey, not too unique, okay service, and good food. I would give them a 3.5/5 but I always round up :) Early Bird is like diner breakfast but a bit elevated. They have all of your classics like omelets, waffles, eggs benedict, etc. with just a little more. For the quality and what you get, I definitely think it's on the pricer side. That being said I got the lomo saltado ($18.50) and it was pretty tasty. Imagine a hash but instead of potatoes, they were fries! My friends got the frank floyd benedict, carnitas chilaquiles, and the h.w and they equally enjoyed it. We all agree that it's good, but definitely not near the top of our brunch lists. We came on a Saturday afternoon (~12pm) and luckily didn't have to wait for a table! We did have to wait sometime for our food and to order though. In addition, our server forgot our items a few times. Nonetheless, everyone was very nice. Would I go back... no, but if you're looking for a new brunch place to try I would check this place out. read more

As this restaurant is close to my workplace, I come here pretty often for lunch. Most times, I order steaks. Their steak is very well cooked (I always order medium), not too heavy, and perfectly salty, so you don't really need to add more sauce. I also recommend their waffles, especially the Dutch waffle. The waffle is a bit thin and flaky, and the homemade whipped cream and blueberry comforts are perfectly balanced without being too sweet. read more
Disclaimer: First time here, the day after Christmas. We entered the queue at 10:15am. Got seated outside at 11;00am. It's definitely packed and appears to be short staffed. About a dozen of people standing outside waiting. Service 2/5. A server came to our table at 11:10 and took our order. Got our food at 11:27. Finding a server walking around was more difficult than it should be. Many of them tend to avoid eye contact with adjacent tables. It's obvious, they seem overworked. Probably waiting on more tables than they normally do. Asking for simple things like utensils and condiments should be easy. But we had to take it from another empty table. Bussers don't seem happy when they are asked questions that should have went to the servers. The food was delicious 4/5. No doubt about it. I feel bad for the workers. They shouldn't have opened so many tables for seating if they only have a few servers. We saw several groups of people walking out from the inside frustrated and ranting to the people outside. This review is for the management. The service was slow and you can tell the staff is unhappy about limited staff. It's not the servers fault that they have to serve many tables. If you can maintain a good customer service rapport with each table. Then close some tables so that each server can be more attentive. Don't fall for the money grab, it only hurts business for the long run. read more

First time visiting this place. Was very delicious and inviting. Servers were very friendly and patient. Prices were a bit pricier than expected but everything seemed reasonable proportions and tasty. Definitely will go again! read more
10/6/2023 I have been here many times, yet I pretty much always end up ordering the same thing. Classic Eggs Benedict - This was good, but the hollandaise sauce lacked a bit. Buttery, but not creamy enough and did not have that lemony tang. It's not the usual hollandaise sauce I love from Early Bird. The eggs were poached well - gooey egg yolk - however when I broke into the yolk, extra water came out too, which was a bit unappetizing. There were lots of delicious ham that had that perfect amount of saltiness. Enjoyed the hashbrowns which I requested for extra crispy. It was pretty good and had a good seasoning. Interior of the potatoes was a bit watery and did not have that mashed potato pillowy texture. But the extra crispiness of the outer layer saved these hashbrowns and I enjoyed it overall. The egg muffins were toasted perfectly with a beautiful brown buttery crisp. What a lovely crispy texture! The side of baked tomato with breadcrumbs was a delicious accompaniment to the whole dish. Had that tomatoey tang, medium soft texture and it was seasoned well. Ordered OJ as well, which was good with no pulp. A nice cool cup of juicy orange juice. Waffle Special - Pumpkin Cheesecake A thinner waffle that's not a Belgian waffle. It is thin and crispy on the outside, which brought that crunchy texture. Pumpkin puree inside, which reminded me of pumpkin pie. There was a spiced, buttery caramel sauce, that brought the whole dish together. Wish I had more of that sauce over the pumpkin puree. The downside of this pumpkin puree did make a soggy waffle in some parts. The freshly whipped cream was well done and was delicious! Overall very enjoyable and enjoyed it more than the eggs benedict and hashbrowns. Customer Service - Everything was good. My second order of the waffle special was a bit late, after I reminded my server that I was waiting for the order. I was okay with that, since I wasn't in a rush. But overall great service! The front-of-house was very kind too and her smiles really helped bring a warmth to the whole dining experience. It's hard to find good customer service anywhere, so I appreciate this! Ambiance - Family-friendly diner vibes. The restaurant has a warm vibe. However, the restaurant was super loud and noisy. They turned up the music, yet it doesn't drown out the loud talking from fellow diners. Also, it was two-thirds packed. Would not recommend if you want some quiet. I did go right at the start of lunch rush hour. read more

Do you guys take reservations?
Sorry we dont but you can always use Yelp to add your name to the waitlist and then that way you can wait at home until your table is almost next. If you add your name on yelp, you’ll be able to see at all times how many parties are ahead of you
Is there bottomless Mimosa's? If so, how much and what days/hours?
I didn't see that on the menu, but they do have a mimosa flight of 3 different flavors.
Is there a kids menu that I could order from?
Is there outdoor seating still available?
yes, but some of the tables are under the sun without any shade
The address doesn't seem to be right? It's taking me to the hospital!
It's on the corner of BASTANCHURY & BREA BLVD In the stater bros parking lot next to the beagle shop
Do they deliver? I see delivery is listed as an option on yelps more info section but can't find a way to order?
Yes on their website but the last 6 times I've gone here, they say their online ordering system isn't working (even though it will let you place an order). So I would advise against it and call to place an order instead.
Why would nobody be answering the phone when it's already your business hours? I called 10x from 7:33 thru 7:48, and it just goes to vm!
Probably because they are busy serving customers that are already there... and they don't have a secretary or receptionist.... ??
Are they open? I see reviews from a few weeks ago but when I call in for order pick up no one ever answers the phone? I've tried checking elsewhere to see if there is any information about their operating hours due to COVID-19.
Yes we are 7:30-2pm and Saturday and Sunday until 2:30pm. We are open for “to-go” orders only and we are also partnered with UberEats as well. Sorry for the late reply.
Are there non-dairy options?
Yes. As far as almond milk and soy milk. I want to say I remember there being food options but I didn't specifically order any food with that option we just asked for the butter on the side.
Are they accepting reservations for Mother's Day?
No, they closed their waitlist
Do they have an option for bottomless mimosas on Sundays?
No we don’t, but we have a mimosa flight that comes w 3 different flavored mimosas!
Do they take reservations on the weekends?
I have never tried, but on the weekends I will put my name on a waitlist through yelp it is so helpful! It tells you how many people are in front of you and if you live close you can check in from home and get there and be seated very quickly
Do they have gluten free options if so what?
They do you have to ask your server
