A great place for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Parking lot is big. We were seated quickly. The hostess was very nice. Our server was friendly and professional. She gave us time to look at the menu and also gave us time to sit and chat after the meal. The menu has a good variety for breakfast and lunch. I had the lemon ricotta pancakes. It came with lemon curd and strawberries. They were delicious. My friend had the fall special with a pumpkin pancakes, eggs and sausage. She also thought it was delicious! The server offered tea refills too. The space is open with a semi open kitchen. It is similar to an old school diner.

Okaaay, listen up--First Watch just changed my whole fall vibe. I went in for brunch and got the pumpkin spice pancakes, and I swear to God they were like autumn hugging me in the mouth. Soft, fluffy, all warm and cozy, with that perfect spice that makes you wanna throw on Uggs and scream "it's pumpkin season, baby!" The place itself is mad cute--bright, chill, and def not like the Shore house after a night out. The staff was on point, super nice, and kept my coffee cup full like they knew I needed it to survive. Between the vibes, the food, and those pumpkin spice pancakes, First Watch is officially my new obsession. Like, I might move in. GTL? Nah, it's PSL now--Pumpkin Spice Life.

I really liked this place up until now, I couldn't believe what happened to me on this round: Ordered one coffee, which back in the day they give a jug per cup to continue pouring into, we got charged 3 coffees... Omelette came out looking like a pancake sandwiching undercooked veggies. The sun-dried tomatoes looked a bit genetically modified.. I don't know but the eggs tasted like card board and was hard to chew. Asked for a different order but also got the different order wrong. Maybe it was just a bad day for someone. Completely understand. I'll still come back and check it out in the future, hopefully it'll be better then.

Steak hash with ciabatta roll (seasonal)
Michelle L.

Overall, I am a fan of First Watch. I do think they are a little overpriced at times, but they do brunch well and the portions are done well. This location is no exception. Visiting from Florida, this place seemed smaller than the ones in Orlando, seating wise. They were just as busy as Orlando locations as well, but since it was a rainy day, all the outdoor seating was not being utilized. Our party of 4 was seated with not much of a wait, and the server was attentive and friendly. I ordered the seasonal steak hash and my fiance ordered some potatoes and toast. The steak hash was just enough food and quite delicious. It came with this ciabatta roll that was toasted with cheese that I was not much a fan of. I would've preferred some toast. My fiance got a hefty amount of potatoes for his side order and I snacked on some. He said the server could've stopped by a little more to see how we doing, but the place was quite busy.

Million dollar breakfast sandwich And honey bacon Brussels hash
Amelia C.

Very busy on a Tuesday for brunch. We ordered the seasonal entrees: Million dollar breakfast sandwich and honey bacon Brussels hash. I enjoyed my breakfast sandwich a lot. The honey balanced out the salty flavors. The arugula in the sandwich helped cut some of the fat. I liked that I kept the bacon on the side. My sandwich came with either potatoes, salad or toast. The potatoes were cooked and seasoned perfectly.

Chocolate chip pancake
Kelli M.

My son and I played hooky and went for breakfast. We both have some food allergies and had to make some changes. I asked to make own breakfast sandwich and was told we couldn't but then she remembered that they did serve English muffins so she let us. We asked for his potatoes with no onions but it came with onions so he didn't eat them. He loved the pancake though. I had the eggs Benedict. It wasn't creamy and was very lemony. I guess if you prefer it light you may prefer it that way but I prefer it less lemony and more creamy and I wasn't a fan of the ham they used at all. I would go back to try something else on the menu though.

Chris M.

Sandwich was good. I'd hope so for a $14.00 egg sandwich. Got the side-eye when I didn't tip on takeout. But $.50 for packaging supplies on top? Spend it wisely because it's the last penny you'll get from me.

Million dollar potatoes
Jessica P.

What a delightful find. On a road trip we made a special side trip due to reviews & it was fantastic. Clean place, quick service and perfectly seasoned food. Large selection and all five menu items did not disappoint. The portions are large and even though my eyes were bigger than my stomach I managed to finish every last bite.

Lavender Haze and Farmhouse Hash
Ren H.

The lavender haze drink was a unique drink. It tasted like flowers, and was really good! The breakfast hash was good as well. It's very busy inside, but still spacious enough. Service was good too.

Tri-fecta, BLTE, and million dollar bacon
Jenny V.

Think we found our new favorite brunch spot! We really enjoyed our food and were excited to finally come here after months of driving past it. Parking is definitely a pain and there are limited spots. We got to the restaurant around 11ish and there was a 45min wait for a party of two. Will most likely come at a less busier time however food came out fairly quick and our waiter was friendly. Restaurant is clean and perfect to come with friends and family. Everything we ordered was sooooo good however our favorites were the million dollar bacon and million dollar potatoes. If you're looking so go elsewhere than your typical diner, I think you'll love coming here!

Cafe Lift - So what does the Butterscotch Apple French Toast look like, you ask?

What a fortunate find! We left Philly and headed to South Jersey to land on this spot. From the…read morewait and the crowds, we knew this was the place to go. When we were finally seated we had a great waitress who shared her recommendations. We landed on the Eggs Benedict and the $19 BUTTERSCOTCH APPLE FRENCH TOAST, which is baked cinnamon & vanilla custard-soaked brioche, butterscotch apples; topped with brown butter oat streusel & Philly whip. Unbelievable. The place was loud and popping on a Sunday around noon. Not intimate, but a fun post-church gathering of hungry souls. Haddonfield itself is a cute little town with what appeared to be a lot of cute dining spots. We will definitely make this our pit stop on future NY - DC sojourns!

Café Lift was a solid and enjoyable brunch stop in downtown Haddonfield…read more We stopped in for a mid-morning brunch on a Monday and were seated right away. The space is clean, modern, and welcoming, and the staff was genuinely pleasant from the start. Julian, our server, greeted us promptly, got coffee on the table quickly, and kept everything moving smoothly. In addition to standard coffee, they offer craft espresso-bar style drinks, which is a nice touch whether you are there for breakfast or brunch. The restaurant also has outdoor seating, not ideal in December, but it would be great in warmer weather for people-watching along Haddonfield's main street. The menu has plenty of options, and I went with the fennel sausage frittata with roasted potatoes and bacon. It was hearty and well executed, the bacon was crisp, the potatoes were crunchy, and the portion was generous enough that I could not finish it. My wife ordered the green goddess roll, which she really enjoyed, though her potatoes came out cold while mine were hot, the only real miss of the visit. We also shared a bowl of lentil soup, which was perfect for a cool day and a nice surprise on a brunch menu. This spot works well for weekdays or weekends, breakfast or brunch, and it does get busy, so reservations are a good idea or be prepared to wait with a coffee. Pricing felt very reasonable for the area, and overall it was a good stop we would happily return to.

Mother's Day brunch at Sabrina's Café with my beautiful daughter We made sure to get there early…read morebecause if you know anything about this neighborhood gem, you know they don't take reservations. This wasn't my first time at Sabrina's, so I already knew the service would probably be a little different with the Mother's Day rush -- and understandably so. Overall, the food was still good! We started with their Blueberry Lavender Lemonade, made with blueberry and lavender, then garnished with fresh blueberries and lemon. It was so refreshing and honestly one of my favorite parts of the meal. For our entrées, I ordered the Shrimp & Grits and added salmon, while my daughter got the Teriyaki Salmon Bowl. For appetizers, we tried one of their "Heated Rivalry" May specials: Shane Hollander's Jambalaya Benedict. It came with shredded potato waffles, two poached eggs, fried shrimp, Creole sauce, smoked beef andouille sausage, pico de gallo, and green onions. Now listen... it looked AMAZING on the menu and had so much potential, but the taste was a little underwhelming for me. The dish came out room temperature, almost like it had been sitting for a while, and I really think it would've hit differently if it had been served hot -- especially the potato waffles. Still, I understand they were extremely busy and trying to accommodate everyone during the holiday rush. Sabrina's is definitely still a local favorite that I'll continue to support. Overall rating for this visit: 8/10

The service was great even though it was incredibly busy for Mother's Day. My dad loved the shrimp…read moreand grits and enjoyed that he received so many shrimp (7 or 8) that all had good size to it. The chicken and waffles were also excellent. My young son really enjoyed this. The fried buttermilk chicken was so on point that we ordered a second one as a side dish. Likewise the buttermilk chicken sandwich was great. I added bacon which was a good call. I would have liked the bacon a bit crispier and I think raw spinach rather than sautéd spinach would have helped the chicken stay crispier. We also order pancakes. The pancakes were super big. I'm talking dinner plate big. Unfortunately the taste did not live up to the big size. The texture was off putting and the flavor was strange. As for ambiance, it can get a bit loud since it is essentially and empty room with only a little decoration. They do have a small outside eating area which was quieter and could be quite nice on a day with comfy temperatures. All in all it was a good experience and we would go back again.

The milder cheese allowed the biscuit to steal the show, which it did. The biscuit was buttery and not dry. I enjoyed it! I also grabbed a pickle and cheddar scone while paying, as they looked really good. Ate it when I got home and honestly was shocked at how tasty it was and how the salty sweet balance worked out. This is a spot that I'll be coming back to.
