    My friend loves the food here so we drove all the way from Jersey just for brunch! She thoroughly enjoyed her vegan pecan pie French toast. It was ok, maybe if the temperature of my meal (or even the temperature of the restaurant) was hotter I would've enjoyed it more. I had the "kitchen sink" and it was pretty tasty! I loved having everything all together. Good size portion too. Service was friendly and the food came out surprisingly quick.

    The Kitchen Sink
    Jess F.

    Classic brunch that's delicious and in huge portions makes Green Eggs a staple! Service is prompt and kind, and the ambiance is lively with pop music and several TV screens. The Kitchen Sink was a rich and delicious platter that sent our brunch cravings running for the hills. It has everything you need - eggs, potatoes, peppers, biscuit, and gravy. Top it off with Cholula and every bite is perfection! This was absolutely huge, we couldn't even finish it between two people. The red velvet pancakes, which we ordered in a kids size, were surprisingly not too sweet! They're more of a deep chocolate flavor than sugary, but the cream and strawberries on top contribute to the sweet side. There's also syrup you can drizzle on top. The kids size was giant as well, I can't imagine how large the regular order would be! Green Eggs has everything you could need for brunch and more, and I can't wait to come back again!

    We love green eggs cafe. The Rittenhouse location is perfect for brunch prior to a stroll at the Rittenhouse farmer's market. Our go to order options are kitchen sink, breakfast burrito and breakfast enchiladas. Their breakfast drinks are delicious as well. Love the Bloody Mary. They're still cash only so definitely carry cash or use their atm indoors.

    Pb&j latte

    Where do I even start? We had a bit of a wait but the wait was worth it. They do have an accessibility ramp, which a member of our party used. I ordered the PB&j latte as well as the short rib Benedict. My brunch dates ordered the French toast dishes and they turned out great. My Benedict was delicious and went well with the potatoes. The French toast was fluffy with a lot of flavor. The blueberries being in season along with lemon gave it a great bright flavor. Since the portions were so large, I split the Benedict with them and had some of the french toast. The creme brulee french toast was a major win as well. This place gets very busy but service is great and the food is absolutely worth the wait. Very cool diner vibes and also very clean. There's tables in the back and the front. You're able to see a lot of the action in the kitchen if you're in the back. I enjoy that they have options for pretty much everyone so that people can dine and eat what they want.

    Green Eggs Cafe is of our favorite breakfast/brunch spots in the city. They have limited menu and seasonal specials that they execute brilliantly. My standard goto order is Kitchen sink skillet that comes with biscuit and gravy and some delicious small sized potatoes and cheese. The skillet is nice and tasty and has never disappointed me. We also ordered kid's French toast sticks which was nice but a bit on the oily side. The beverages that we ordered were flavorful and strong. The beverage portion was on the smaller side though. My only issue is that even today they are cash only place which is nostalgic at times but almost all the other times very irritating as we now need to arrange for cash. Service is nice and polite. There may be rush and waiting so be prepared. Casual ambiance !

    Shrimp & Grits
    Kathryn W.

    Standard brunch spot in Philly that is good for walk ins! I ordered the shrimp and grits which was cheesy and tasty, although was a pretty generic take on it. The portions were very large which was great. I've had the tofu scramble before which is okay as well. Overall a great spot for a quick brunch but nothing unique about the food.

    French toast flight
    Paige S.

    YUM!!! Everything we ordered came perfectly. We enjoyed the presentation of the dishes and the decadent flavor options. If you are like me and have an extreme sweet tooth, this spot is for you. The French toast all sounded heavenly so we opted for the flight to maximize our flavors. The breakfast enchiladas also had a lot of food with a good amount of sauces and I loved the guacamole and bean sauces. Our lattes were sweet but not too sweet so it provided a nice balance to our sweet and savory meal.

    Latte
    Kristine S.

    Looked at menu and thought it would be a great place for brunch. Didn't realize they had multiple locations, located near to one another but all worked out well. The chicken sandwich was mediocre and probably should have gone with one of the interesting breakfast items. Coffee drink with cinnamon whip cream was amazing. The service was good but to be honest was uncomfortable with a service charged added to bill as we did not know if this went to serve. Percent was 18 percent and given early statement did not want to leave a couple of dollars. Receipt also had suggested tip printed which suggested to us service charge did not go to wait staff. Additionally, this is a cash only place. While the food was OK it worked out to be an expensive brunch experience. Would love to try other items but given Service Charge probably won't be back

    Apple Pie French Toast, mimosas

    Great Place to eat, has a lot to offer on their breakfast. Menu was really hard to choose what to eat. They have a great drink menu as well. They have mimosa pitchers as well. Only thing you would really need to know when you get there is you have to have cash. They do have ATM at the front of the building before you go back to get served to be able to pull out money to eat but just know you do need cash Otherwise, the place is very clean and they have a lot of seating to offer.

    Green Eggs Café holds a special place for us, as it was the spot for one of our first few dates, and recently our last meal before getting married! The food was genuinely really good, and the service was great, making the experience memorable. The major drawbacks, however, are related to payment transparency. I was frustrated by the mandatory service charge tacked onto the bill, which is separate from the standard tip and gratuity. Additionally, be aware that the restaurant is cash only, which can be quite inconvenient if you aren't prepared. While the food and staff are fantastic, the payment policies detract from the overall enjoyment.

    Definitely want to get there a bit before open or might have to wait some. Also recommend looking at menu ahead of time if you get overwhelmed by a menu with so many good options.

    Walked in and was seated immediately. Please be warned this is CASH ONLY!!! There is an atm on site but again it's CASH ONLY!! An 18 percent charge is added on bills over 50 dollars. Our serve Damien was amazing. My friend's mimosa was not right the first time and the manager herself came over and made sure it was correct. The manager continued to check on us during our time which was amazing. She's very hands on Now to the food! Large and I mean large portions. A day later and I still have enough food for two. I got the braised ribs egg rolls , red celery pancakes and home fries! To drink the blueberry lemonade. All delicious. My friend is vegan and I loved that they have so many vegan options. I would highly recommend getting a plate to share it's so much food! Every thing was wonderful and highly recommend. Walking distance from a lot of attractions.

    Pernil Benedict
    Jennifer G.

    This is the second time I've eaten here, and it was a lovely experience again. Our waitress was absolutely lovely (unfortunately, I didn't catch her name); I requested hot water to drink during our meal, and she also gave me an extra cup of hot water to go when we left because it was cold outside. I got a strawberry matcha, which was great; the strawberries were very sweet, and our waitress also gave me a boba straw because the strawberry pieces kept getting stuck in the regular straw. I ordered the Pernil Benedict from the special's menus and it was delicious. The meat was very soft while the rice cake was crispy, and textures and flavors worked well together. I also like the openness and the good amount of natural light that this cafe gets. I'm excited to come back :) This place is cash-only.

    This was the perfect place to stop by after a long bike ride by the river! It was super busy right…read morearound breakfast time, so the wait was slightly long. This was fine though because the staff will bring your food out if you are dining nearby, and the view outside was beautiful. There were plenty of tables and space for a high volume of diners, and once our food came out, we saw how big the portion was! Our burritos were gigantic, easily lasting two meals for me, and filled with fantastic ingredients. I especially loved the inclusion of sweet potato, wish there was more! The staff were also incredibly friendly, stopping to make conversation and ensuring we had everything we needed. I will definitely stop by again to try the rest of their giant menu and sweet treats!

    I got extended exposure to Cosmic Cafe following a recent weekend working in Lloyd Hall for a race…read more They have an excellent menu including breakfast and lunch options. I recommend the ham sandwich. You can customize everything and most dishes come with a small side. As a runner and frequent Lloyd Hall visitor, I also appreciate the cold water container outside the shop free for use by all. There have been plenty of hot summer days where I refilled my bottle without having to get in line or even thank anyone - so I'm thanking them here!
