Best Service of any of the Toast / Famous Toastery Locations My wife loves the Davidson location which is still a Toast and the second one they opened. My problem here has always been the service and the extraordinary long wait times, both to get a table and then once you're seated, the wait thereafter. We walked into this location at 11:00 am after Church and they were in full swing. Parking lot was packed and people were waiting for people to leave to grab a parking spot. Walked in with trepidation. The waiting area was packed as was the rest of the restaurant and patio area. My wife asked how long a wait and was told 15- 20 minutes. Based on experience, my answer was I have to see it to believe it. Had a seat in the waiting area and had a complimentary cup of coffee and 10 minutes later our name was called. Talk about a pleasant shock. We were promptly seated, menus presented along with the complimentary corn bread, and beverage orders for our teas taken. This chain is having fun with the 2016 Presidential Elections. At least some one has a sense of humor. When we ate at the Famous Toastery at University City, I had the Trumplet which is an Omelet stuffed with meatloaf. This time at this location, I ordered the Bernie Scramble with is Scrambled Eggs with Salmon, Cream Cheese and Capers along with Sauted Vegetables as a side. Great variation on Lox and Bagles and it was very creative and more importantly, very tasty. My wife was more traditional and had the Meatloaf with Mashed Potatoes which is one of her favorites. Needless to say, we both enjoyed our meal. Still can not say enough about how well this restaurant is run. Even with restaurants with reputations for excellent service, good customer flow management, this one is one of the best I have ever seen. Excellent Restaurant and we will be back. Christmas is coming up which means many trips to Concord Mills and this is a very viable dining option. read more

My spouse and I stopped by here on a Saturday morning and as to be expected, it was pretty busy. We had to wait around 20 minutes for a table which wasn't an issue. Our waiter was nice and attentive. For us the food was average for the price. It didn't feel worth $10-$15 range even tho the size was great. Overall it was fine. I had the chocolate chip pancakes with bacon and my husband had the stuff French toast. read more

I was a little hesitant to come here with the three star rating, but I was pleasantly surprised. Came here for brunch with some of my old college roommates. We were seated immediately as the place was not packed. The waiters were very friendly and checked up us multiple times throughout our meal. Waters were filled very promptly and the food was very good. I ended up ordered the turkey burger special with home fries. I was expecting a dry turkey patty but was surprised the patty was cooked just right. The burger was topped with tomato, lettuce, and avocado. The avocado was a smart addition because with turkey being a leaner meat, the avocado's creaminess really helped balance the burger. Definitely would recommend this place for breakfast or brunch! read more

I came here today with my boyfriend to eat breakfast. He ordered an omelette that was delicious and I ordered pancakes that I thought could've been made a little better. I am truly thankful for the manager: Mianca. She checked on me and made sure that I was happy with each part of my meal after the corrections. I know I might've been annoying, but she always came to the table with a smile ready to make my experience the best. I am truly appreciative and will definitely be back! Great job to the servers and management. read more

Stood at the counter for 5 minutes before being told to seat ourselves anywhere we wanted (maybe there should be a sign). Ordered orange juice that had something black floating at the top. Understanding that it's fresh squeezed, this looked like a gnat. I sent it back for water instead. But the kicker was my potatoes coming to the table cold. For the price of the food, there should be an expectation that at least the food will not be cold. The server was nice. read more

Food was great but service was amazing waitstaff worked as a team- which made the experience great for family with small kids. Flight of mimosas was a nice twist on breakfast, but the shrimp and grits were on point. read more

The Famous Toastery was amazing! This place has some great food. Wish we had one in my state! They have so many options to choose from I didn't even know what to get but I was very content with what I got. Definitely recommend you give this place a try! read more

Famous Toastery - Breakfast Pizza - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Concord, North Carolina

Food A+ Service A+ Location A+ Prices A+ Atmosphere A+ Parking B+ I was first introduced to Famous Toastery when it was just "Toast" in Davidson. Breakfast is good any time of the day & I will gladly eat a huge breakfast & may or may not eat the rest of the day. I am sad to say I have never ate at their locations for any other reason except breakfast. This trip, I had the "build your own omelet" with mushrooms, onions, sausage, & mozzarella cheese. My side was grits & toast. Our waitress was fantastic. Very attentive and friendly. We didn't have to wait too long for our food to arrive. Everything was delicious. Breakfast menu has something for everyone. I hate that I don't go here enough to try different items! Prices are reasonable. Parking can be tricky. I think my only complaint is that they did away with the shredded hash browns. read more

I ordered their stuffed french toast, and the stuffing appeared to be moldy. I would rate this with a 0 if I could. read more

Famous Toastery - Scrambled eggs with ham, sautéed spinach and potatoes with mushrooms, peppers and spinach - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Concord, North Carolina

The locations definitely vary. If I was to give a five start it would be for the one in university as they have a better menu and the service never fails me. As for the one in concord, I've only been once and won't be back. The manager was very nice and did compensate us for the inconvenience but how long we waited for our food and the menu being different from the one in university is the reasons I won't be back. read more

Not a good place for black people or people of color. A white couple that came in after my family (interracial couples w/ children) & requested to sit at the bar because they couldn't wait, was seated at a table before us. Secondly, the waitresses were very unattractive to my family and other black families that hat raised their hands to get a waitresses attention, but white families, the waitresses were constantly at their tables making sure they were taken care of. after receiving our order, my daughter's drink was missing, when I inquired about the drink & asked for more coffee, there was attitude. She brought my daughter's milk, but forgot our coffee. Raising my hand again to get attention, the waitresses kept walking by as if they didn't want to serve us until I said something. I had to also ask for utensils to eat. If interracial couples or people with color are not welcomed, then just say it!! read more

Absolutely a WOW breakfast place. Normally I am not a breakfast gal because of the basicness of dishes. But this place blows it out of the park with how creative the menu is. I had the famous hash, and the corned beef with crispy crispy mashed red potatoes was out of this world. You also get your choice of eggs with hollandaise on top. Oh and your choice of toast! They have sourdough which gets brownie points because it's rare restaurants carry sourdough. My partner got the southwest omelette and they loved it so much that I didn't even get to try a bite. We also spilt the strawberry cream cheese stuffed French toast. I probably could have done without the cream cheese, but that's a personal preference. It didn't take away from the dish at all. It's actually great to help make it savory. OH! Best part is their freaking maple syrup is in a glass bottle and is kept warm-- that's so unheard of! I wish I lived here so I could come back and try the rest of the menu, but sadly I live on the west coast. Absolutely a must try. PS-- the music playlist on a Sunday was fire! It was all throw backs from the 80's and early early 90's. read more

Famous Toastery - Famous Hash, Southwestern Omelet, and Stuffed French Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Concord, North Carolina

Had to wait 15 minutes to be served than it took 45 mins to get the food. Our server was rude and not helpful. Will not be coming back.

First let me say I do like FT but not at this location on Concord Mills Blvd. It is dirty the table sticky, menu greasy...please don't read this part if your about to eat but the bathroom floor look like it had not been cleaned in months, stink and someone must had done #2 and everything still there stained from over a period of time, and of course that included the smell. The place was not busy it was a Tues morning. The waitress was very kind and great! The FT in Huntersville (near HT Rose Commons) to me is much better in re to food & cleanliness. read more

It was a good, quick brunch. The service, however, could use some polishing for the price you're paying at Toast! Arrived at prime brunch service on Saturday and had a brief 10 minute wait for a table. We got seated and they took our orders quickly. First up, my Southwest Scramble was really good. I wasn't in a spicy mood so I subbed the Jalapeños for green onions and glad I did, it worked great with the rest of the scramble. Corn, tomatoes, onion, cheddar jack, cooked well. Sourdough toast was great but had to wait a while for someone to come by with butter, got a little cold. Their bacon is nice and thick, which gives it a nice crisp while still having a bit of meaty chew in the middle! Girlfriend was a bit under the weather and ordered a simple bowl of grits and two over-medium eggs. They arrived at the table and the second server at this point noticed they were over easy. She took them as is without fuss. Overall was happy with her meal. I've said this about the Davidson location and this one has the same issue: The "Every server is your server" works but communication is key! My cup was empty for much of my brunch, but then after I was almost done I had two servers ask what I was drinking. My original server brought me a soda, then the other brought me one. A third (who I believe was actually the hostess that seated us) then showed up with yet another soda.. I was a little confused as were they. The other issue is the fact that with this concept, no one really takes 'ownership' of individual tables. We were seated by the hostess, our drink and food orders were taken by one server, the food was brought out by another, our original server brought me one drink, two others brought out the other two, then someone else brought out the check. Usually at a sit-down restaurant someone at least says "Hi, how are you" or "Thanks, have a great day!" but this was not the case today. I don't always expect incredible service, but the prices at Famous Toastery warrant that expectation. I mean, $2.99 for a 'bowl' of plain grits that should really be called a 'cup' of grits. A small OJ is $4... Yeah, I would like just a little sliver of hospitality. I hope Saturday's visit was just a fluke, otherwise the Davidson location has this one beat on service. read more

I guess we made it here at the right time! We were taken in by a waiter with a nice smile and greeting. We were told any one with a black shirt ( waiter or waitress ) was there to serve, just ask. So I'm liking this place, right from the start. I'm new to these breakfast brunch places, they close so early but it's a new day. My wife and I both Chosed The bagel, lox and creamed cheese plate. It brought back memories of when . . . . The meal was very enjoyable, just a bit pricey. Their hours are 7am -3pm so I figure they are going to make up for closing before the 5:00pm crowd. We will definitely be coming back again! read more

The last three times we've been there has been a long wait with empty tables. Then the staff moves super SLOW. All these people waiting and they are shuffling there feet..literally. They need to train their staff on urgency and turnover. The food is over priced for what you get but was as expected. Also took a LONG TIME to get. read more

Amazing breakfast! I occasionally go here either with my mom or uncle and cousins, and it's always top tier. read more

Famous Toastery - French Toast, 2 Eggs, Breakfast Potatoes 10/10 - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Concord, North Carolina

Good food, a bit pricey but worth it. There is a wait but the servers are doing their best. I would definitely recommend.

The menu is interesting and not the same things you get at most breakfast restaurants. Loved the meal and the servers are wonderful.

I came here for Sunday brunch with my husband and expected the same experience that I had at the university location. I will say that the vibe is completely different. It's more modern than the down home feel of the university restaurant and I really liked the feel. We were seated within about 10 mins although it appeared as though we arrived right before the crowd. After being seated, Fallon waited on us, although multiple staff members periodically checked on us as they all serve all tables. I ordered the crab roll and pesto pasta salad. My husband ordered the chorizo, spinach, and feta cheese omelet with a side of grits that were AMAZING!! We weren't offered cornbread and apple butter at the university location but we had it at this location and it was excellent! I've never had that combination but can't wait to go back for more! The food was good and seasoned fairly well. I added more seasoning to my pasta salad but left feeling satisfy aha pleased with our experience!! I would recommend this restaurant because of it's reasonable prices, good food, and great service! read more

Great seating inside and outside. Service was average- nothing spectacular. The crab scramble was good- just eggs and crab meat. I added hot sauce to mine. My friend had the southwest scramble and it wasn't very flavorful at all. We had to add hot sauce to everything haha. The potatoes are perfect though! Overall, it was a lot of food. We couldn't finish it all. read more

I don't know why I continue to give this place a chance! THE FOOD IS HORRIBLE every. Single. Time. Tasteless, unseasoned, COLD & overpriced. Huge waste of money when you end up eating only 2 or 3 bites! Had the Huevos Rancheros - YUCK!! My 6 year old took one bite of his burger and spit it out. They only gave him a handful of fries but that was the only thing he ate. NEVER EVER AGAIN! read more

Ava was amazing! We never ran out of mimosas and she was on point with service. Will be back! read more

I had high hopes for this place when looking at the menu online. I was unfortunately so disappointed. I got the Cali and it was underwhelming and under seasoned. I thought the potatoes were sweet potatoes because they were so sweet but to my surprise they were red potatoes. Two stars because atmosphere was nice, service was great. read more

Just ate here and after I finished my drink, I noticed a lipstick print on my glass. I am so disgusted. I asked for my meal to be free, but the manager on duty only took the drinks off as some type of "courtesy." He was very combative as well. I don't need any apologies when my health is involved. I've been dining at Famous Toastery for the past 2 years and ranted and raved about them even to family and friends just to have this disgusting experience. You never know what people may carry these days and as a restaurant, you must be mindful of such things, situations, and scenarios read more

After a morning out with family, we stopped for brunch. We were seated quickly and we had a nice time. Very little wait, good atmosphere, and good food. The selections made it difficult to choose, but I had the corned beef hash and it was outstanding. Add avocado to yours. When visiting fam in Charlotte, we will come back to Famous Toastery. read more

Twas a cool autumn morn when I wandered into the famous Toastery. Very good vibes right as I walked through the door. Great atmosphere, servers are very kind and the menu is very easy to navigate and not overwhelming. Upon sitting I was blessed with a complimentary warm basket of corn bread and a fresh apple spread. Wonderful place to connect with friends and family. 5 stars read more

Not sure what was going on this morning. I have always experienced good service, but I come with my mom and they ask me, with my older mom, to wait outside because only people who pick up food to go are seating. I can clearly see others who are waiting for tables seating and they were not willing to let my older mom seat. I stayed so I could prove the person seating was indeed waiting for a table and sure enough. Lady was white, we are Hispanic, hmmmm - very sad to be reminded you are not always welcome in places here in the Charlotte area. Be aware. read more

The food was amazing! Great prices and great service. After we sat down a major storm rolled through and the people on the patio were getting soaked, but the staff moved quickly to get everyone inside to enjoy their meals. They didn't miss a beat. Will definitely visit again when I'm in town! read more

Absolutely amazing. The people, the service, the wait, the food! We were told it would be a 50min wait, got in under 30. We had went there a previous time and the manager remembered us and even asked how our plans went and then told us to have a safe drive home [9hrs]. The food was amazing as well. My mate had a blah blah blah with potatoes [love] and I had the fall waffle with bacon. All the food was DELICIOUS. I highly recommend this place. If I could give it more stars I would! We will see yall next year! read more

Loved my Irish Kiss coffee but not my 'cakes or service, today..... food was basic....

We've eaten at this location twice but will not go back. On our first visit the food was just ok, second time the food was not good & cold. Both times it was overpriced. The restaurant was not busy so I don't know why they were unable to get the plates to us before it was cold. Will not go again. read more

Absolutely love Famous Toastery love there club sandwich but most of all there Mac and cheese and bacon chicken wrap!!

Got to say, it was pretty good. I always got mixed reviews from friends. The ones that said it's good but expensive were correct. I got the shrimp and grits which was delicious. I also ordered a side of their potato. Needed a bit of salt but they were also very good. Their sweet tea could use some more sugar in my opinion but I know a lot of people that don't like overly sweet sweet tea. All of the ladies I was there with also enjoyed their food but that were also all regulars there. I was the only newbie. They bring soft cornbread to the table with apple butter. Our waitress was nice and kept our drinks full. I'd recommend it for a fun brunch with the girls. Keep in mind that this location doesn't have alcohol. read more
