3 minutes after walking in the door my son had a server walking by spill an entire drink all over his sweatshirt, pants, socks and shoes. NO ONE said a word to him or offered to help. No apology, no offer of a towel. I had to ask where a bathroom was to go get cleaned off. His clothes were soaked. When this happened there were 3 employees standing by and not one of them had any concern. We will never be back. read more

I love this spot - it's so dang cute and it's often pretty busy but sometimes you can grab a spot at the bar. I highly recommend their lattes. So delish. I got the horchata latte and my sister got the vanilla latte. Both divine. read more

Heard great reviews and wanted to give it a try. Came for a friends birthday brunch. There's either street parking if you can find one or there's a nearby parking ramp at the medical center close by. Came inside and noticed it's busy. There's upstairs and downstairs. The bar is in the first floor. We had reservations in advanced. We were greeted and seated quickly upstairs. Surprising, it was roomier than we thought...which was nice. The stairs are a bit steep, if you can get past that. Otherwise, stay on floor level. We ordered Peach and Rose punch, Matcha Dream with oat milk, latte, and Hope Bloody to start with drinks. We then ordered Banana Churro Waffles, Bourbon Smoked Salmon Toast, Pimento Scrambled Eggs, and Fried Chicken Waffles. Overall, the food and drinks were delicious! Service was fast and friendly. Would like to come back and try other items from menu. read more

Service was a disaster, but the food is good if you're willing to deal with it. I had a reservation set for 1130 AM on Saturday (busy times). While I can understand a slight wait between being seated and ordering, we ended up waiting half an hour to be seated and another half an hour to order. Not a great experience here. read more

How can you not love this place?!? It honors hope in its name and beyond. Not to forget - the food & coffee! Walk in for lunch on Monday. Around 12:15pm. Busy but was seated at the bar (solo eating). Phenomenal service by the servers! Highly recommend. Can't wait to return. This is a great place and equally has a great cause. read more

I cannot express how *wonderful* this place is!! My old roommate suggested we try this place out and I was a bit hesitant as I usually hate to make the drive to St. Paul when a) he lives in Minneapolis and b) I am in Burnsville. However! This was so *so* worth the drive and I wold absolutely recommend visiting! My old roommate arrived before us and snagged a table on the patio right before it started to get busy, I think we arrived around 10 AM? He had already ordered us the Hope Mimosa Board and the Donut Basket so both arrived almost immediately after we had sat down. (I saw another review that mentioned they cannot serve alcohol on the patio, this must be new as when we visited in March we ordered two separate Mimosa Boards and a few other cocktails with our friends that joined late and had absolutely no issues.) Our server was absolutely fantastic, it was clear that they had majority (if not all) of the patio but were so great at handling all of the different tables. There was never a moment where we had any sort of complaint, or had to wait for anything, they were so attentive and wonderful in suggesting different items for us to try. The price point was a sweet spot and the menu was incredible! We have plans to come back here in the next month to try out some of the items we missed our first time around. A very special shoutout needs to go to the Giant Pickle Pretzel - if you are a pickle lover you NEED to try this!! It is 3 lbs of pickle pretzel goodness. We ended up taking a bunch home and it was just as good reheated. Other notable items from our visit (all we would recommend) included: Sea Salt Caramel, Nitro Cold Brew, Loaded Hash Browns, Cheddar Cheese French Toast, and Stuff Poblano. read more

I have wanted to try this place and met a friend for lunch after a free ballet performance at Landmark Center (that's prob another review - it was awesome). I originally wanted to just grab coffee (of which they have many options) but we saw the menu and decided we needed lunch. I LOVE breakfast, especially pancakes and opted for the wild blueberry pancakes. They were so good. There were 3 huge blueberry, multigrain pancakes. I asked for maple syrup and they gave me a side of that as well as the blueberry cream cheese syrup. The pancakes also had fresh blueberries sprinkled in on top. I didn't like the cream cheese syrup (waaay tooo sweet) but loved the maple syrup and fresh blueberries. I also got a latte and it was wonderful. My friend got some sort of Irish themed coffee that included green sprinkles and lucky charms - too cute! What a great stop. They took reservations so we were seated immediately (it was busy on a Tue even after 1:15pm). Loved this place. Service was fantastic. My friend parked on the street and I parked in the Science museum lot. We walked from Landmark Center. It was a wonderful afternoon. read more

Recommended for a brunch splurge with your friends or family. Large portions can be shared. Food is ready very quickly. The pillow pancakes are truly airy and the unique syrup is well matched. The Paul Bunyon coffee drink is perfect over ice. Parking is a bit challenging since it's all street parking so give yourself some time beforehand. read more

Wowwie is this place packed on the weekends. I mean, that's how you know it's good right. I was lucky they were able to squeeze me at the bar since I was by myself. Sitting at the bar was a super cool experience and brought me back to my barista days:') Being at the bar and inside also let you to know how busy they truly were. It was loud (in a good way), there were servers running around, and the food was coming out fast and hot. I only had to wait 10 minutes for my food, which is super good considering how busy they were. But, while I was waiting for my food, I saw this tables drinks sitting there for a good 15 minutes before being served. As for the food, I got the Chicken Fried Steak ($14) and the fried steak had the perfect crispiness. The gravy on top was also chefs kiss. However, I asked for my eggs over hard and they gave me my eggs over easy. The hash browns also really sucked. They were undercooked and didn't even taste crispy. It wasn't just mine, I looked at the people near me and theirs was underdone too. But, the biscuit WAS TOO DIE FOR. Overall, loved the decor and atmosphere, food was okay (wouldn't come back for it, except for the biscuit), great service, and I recommend getting a cocktail, they have so many cool ones. read more

We sat on the patio on a beautiful overcast fall day. The food was delicious, and the service was super friendly. For Gluten free me, I got the loaded hashbrowns from the side dish menu. My second choice would have been a side of cheesy grits. Perfect meal sized portion for my belly. Not a lot of gluten free options, but plenty for the normies. I also got the pistachio cardamom coffee and it was super sugary. The menu didn't mention it was going to be sweet, I was disappointed in that read more

I was hoping to love this place, but left unimpressed and wishing I went elsewhere. It was I insanely busy when I arrived with my husband to meet some friends. It was pretty cold outside, but we opted to sit outside by a heater when we saw that inside everyone was smushed together as if we were not in the middle of a pandemic... There was a huge cluster of people at the host stand so I waited patiently just outside. As soon as they left I headed in but was surpassed by some entitled asshole rushing through the door. When I told him I was waiting he just shrugged and proceeded to cut me off. I wouldn't have even mentioned this, but I was even more put off when a server walking by who saw the exchange and decided to tell me there is no line and basically it was fine what he did, umm no, it's called common decency, manners, politeness...we need more of that in this world and people who understand this. Anyway, food was mediocre at best and service was inattentive, we had to ask for water twice and never got refills. Avocado toast was basically sliced pickle and guacamole with other sliced stuff, the chicken and waffles turned out to be be chicken tenders, seemed like a kids meal. I don't recommend this place. read more

Server was pretty unfriendly and said very little, had to be flagged down for a refill, etc, until it was time to make sure we knew to be out by the 60 minute mark. My fancy French toast was decent (and my specialty coffee was delicious!) but there are other places that do just as well and provide good, friendly service so I will nope out of another visit. read more

I have heard amazing things about hope breakfast bar and Finally made it in. This is street parking so be ready for that, but a solo worth it. The layout is super cute and I thought our waitress was outstanding. Now for the food. Everything seemed supersized! I looked at the menu and had a hard time picking just one thing. I landed on the breakfast sandwich. I will say that it was a little messy, but everything on it was awesome. The cheese was so melty, the pork shoulder bacon had so much flavor and what a fun added taste with pimento cheese. My boyfriend ordered the pillow pancakes, I may have stolen a couple bites and the flavor of those were amazing too plus they were light and fluffy as their names suggests. I also loved the variety of beverage options from non boozy to Boozy. The latte options had some really unique profiles and were also quite tasty. It will not take me long to make another trip here for a solid breakfast. read more

Holy cow this place is great!!! It's been on my list forever but I just came for the first time with a couple of friends who've come here regularly. This is a very inventive menu, so if you're looking for more of a rural main-street joint with familiar breakfast standards, this might not be your scene. But this food is GOOD. My main course was the Pimento Cheese Scramble. This is one of the cheesiest egg dishes I've ever had, and yet the cheese didn't dominate all of the other incredible flavors in this dish. It was fantastic, I absolutely loved it. On this visit my friends got the Cheddar Cheese French Toast and the Hope Chili Biscuit. All of these are unique, clever dishes, but not clever for the sake of cleverness - clever for the sake of deliciousness. The Cheddar French Toast came with tomato-basil soup which my experienced friend said is the best she's ever had. We also got a couple of cool "punch" beverages - Peach & Rose Punch - which I can confidently characterize as the fanciest lemonade I've ever had, SUPER yummy. I also spotted a really inviting-looking cinnamon bun on someone else's table and decided to have one for my dessert, and I have zero regrets about this. The exterior of the bun was pretty dry but inside was heavenly, and the swirl of cream cheese frosting was perfection. The only thing losing points about the food was that my dish came with very average hash browns & toast. I bet they could come up with a cooler potato side dish to go with that incredible egg entree. We came at 1pm on a Sunday in late winter. We knew there would be a wait, and we wound up being seated at the bar after waiting 45 minutes. Be prepared for that type of scenario on a weekend. Parking is also gnarly around there, so expect that if you're arriving that way. I can promise you not only that the long wait is worth it, but that it would be longer if the staff were not so professional. We spoke the most to Ari and Diane, and they were constantly hustling but never unable to be friendly and attentive. (Also, it probably exacerbated our wait that we were firmly in no-outdoor-seating season; they seem to have a lot of patio space when the weather allows for it.) I wish I hadn't waited so long to try this world class breakfast bar! read more

I was very excited to try this place but I left a little disappointed. I ordered a Lavander Vanilla Latte and a Pimento cheese scramble. The coffee was pretty good but my food wasn't. I was expecting a healthier meal. My toast seemed to be dipped in butter, my hash browns were covered in oil and the amount of cream cheese in the scrambled eggs was a bit much for my taste. I would come back for the coffee. read more

Lexi our server was very good. My chicken fried steak and my wife's avocado toast were amazing.

This place is truly perfect for a first date. I went with my partner and a couple of friends this past weekend and we are constantly wowed by everything in the menu. Expect to pay a little more than you usually would for breakfast but the quality is through the roof. I had the mini monkey pancakes for $10 and they are to die for with bananas, peanut butter syrup, and chocolate combing over the top in the best way. The pancakes themselves are fluffy and great too. My partner got their egg salad sandwich for $12 and loaded up their hashbrowns for an additional $2. I would fully recommend loading the hashbrowns, the bacon, green onion, and cheese added over the top was so indulgent and delicious, definitely worth the up charge. The sandwich itself was fresh and delicious too with way more egg salad than expected. Their pork belly dishes are also phenomenal which we've tried in past visits and their cocktail and coffee list is huge and creative as well. I had the pistachio martini which came with a deliciously sweet pistachio rim. Expect to pay $6+ for a nice coffee and $10+ for a cocktail. They have great mocktail and shot options as well! I was impressed the server made it up the stairs without spilling a drop! The place itself is in a beautiful old firehouse and the inside has quirky art and prayer cards on the tables. It really has a quaint feel to it and the service is usually friendly and fast. The only things to be aware of is there isn't very close available free parking, expect to circle the block or park a few blocks off. Additionally, this is not a hidden gem, everyone knows about it so expect to wait a long while for a table or reserve one ahead of time. I would say reservations are 100% necessary on weekends. The place is a bit crowded and loud so if you prefer a quiet place this isn't for you. Lastly, for some reason everytime we've been, the hostess has been incredibly grouchy even if we had reservations. However, the servers and great kitchen more than make up for this place's shortcoming. A must try. read more

Hope Breakfast Bar - St. Paul - Pistachio Martini - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

Cute place with a very cool menu of different foods and coffee drinks! We sat outside on their patio so I wasn't able to see the inside. Patio seating allows dogs! Street parking around the block can be difficult to find, so beware! I tried the biscuits and gravy and my friend tried the pimento cheese scramble. Both picks were good and tasted great. Biscuits and gravy were standard, biscuits were thick, fluffy, and buttery. The seasoned hashbrowns that came with it were crispy and flavorful, but a tad bit bitter. The pimento cheese scramble was fluffy and had a bit of a kick to it. I would definitely try this for something different than your regular go-to brunch item and skip the biscuits and gravy unless you try one of their other biscuit items. Would come back to try other food items! read more

Hope Breakfast Bar - St. Paul - Biscuits & Gravy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

Hope lives up to the hype! We came on Minnesota's nice spring Saturday to grab brunch and catch up. I got the banana milk latte, and my friend got the banana bread latte. Both of us loved them, but I preferred hers (I tend to like things sweeter, and the banana milk latte was more basic but still really good). For food, she got the pimento scramble and I got the biscuits and gravy with loaded hash browns. She raved about the pimento scramble, and it's one of the most popular items on the menu. It looked really good! The biscuits and gravy was among the best I've had in the cities. The biscuit was SO soft and fluffy, but didn't collapse under the flavorful gravy. I love that it was sausage gravy, but also had fresh mushrooms in it. I got my eggs poached and they were PERFECT. The loaded hash browns were exceptional. The only thing bringing it down a star is the service. We were sat at the bar, and it took a while (20+ minutes) to have someone come over so that we could place an order. Once we did, though, things clipped along pretty fast. read more

The service was awesome. We were there on a busy Saturday morning. The restaurant was loud because it was packed. No wait though. I ordered some sides as my meal. I asked for one over easy fried egg. It came out with a hard yoke. I asked for another one. The second was perfect. And I'm picky about my eggs. I also ordered the loaded hash browns from the sides. They were fantastic. Hope is a great place. We love that you can write down your hopes and dreams and they the card says the staff will pray for you at their staff meetings. That's pretty awesome. The food was delicious! read more

What amazing weather this past weekend & so glad I got to spend it at my favorite brunch spot for such a great cause! First time I have ever eaten pink pancakes and probably the best tasting pancakes I have ever had Hope Breakfast Bar and their own Chef Brian Ingram are supporting the American Cancer Society! For the month of October, Hope Breakfast Bar is donating 100% of the proceeds from sales of three special pink menu items to the American Cancer Society to help fight breast cancer. I have eaten brunch at Hope breakfast bar a few times now and the food and drinks have always been top notch! Parking can get a little tricky as there is only street parking. I would also highly recommend making a reservation as weekends get super busy and there will be a long wait for a table without one. If you do have to wait I recommend walking next door to Cafe Astoria and grabbing a coffee off of their secret menu while you wait! In the warmer weather they have a lot of extra seating outside in between two buildings in a closed off street. Not the cutest patio but anytime I can have brunch outside is a win read more

I was looking forward to trying this place! Their menu sounds delish and pictures of food looked great. Upon arrival, I found it really hard to find a parking spot. I finally found one a couple blocks away. They only had outdoor seating available but it was shaded and nice. Inside doesn't seem to have air conditioning and is very small. I was kinda bummed they didn't have a kids menu but the waitress said they could make some things 'kid sized' for less money. One son ordered the pancakes and loved them. Another ordered the eggs, bacon and hashbrowns and loved that too. I ordered the veggie bagel sandwich. The bagel itself was tasty but way to firm to eat as a Sandwich. I probably wouldn't order it again. The coffee was a pricey $6 for just a standard cup and wasn't that great. Wouldn't get that again. I'd probably get a coffee or latte at Astoria across the street first? Hashbrowns were delicious! A little spendy but would come back to try something new. Overall, nice experience. Very quaint and cool decor. read more

We had reservations for 2:15pm on a sunny Sunday. Very friendly greeters and were seated on time. We had the Hope Bloody and Espresso Martini. The bloody was very spicy and the tomato mix was kind if thick. If you like VERY spicy, go for it. My Espresso Martini was delicious! We ordered fried chicken and waffles, one boneless and the other bone in southern style. Both delicious but different chicken. The setup was good. The avocado jalapeno cream cheese spread was fresh and pretty good, again very spicy. Lots of avocado so that calmed the hotness down a bit. The loaded hash browns were pretty tasty, the cheese a little overdone but yummy. Lastly, was the Hawaiian Bowl, fresh and awesome, would get again. Server was great, atmosphere was like a cafe, little noisy because tables pretty close. Prices reasonable. read more

I am obsessed with this restaurant! Definitely one of my favorite brunch spots in the cities and worth the drive to Saint Paul, haha! The service was also great even though they were extremely busy. I went with some friends after the TC marathon so we ordered a bunch of food! Collectively we had the southern fried chicken and waffles, Hawaiian bowl, biscuits and gravy, avocado toast, and donut basket. I personally ordered the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was a mix between sausage and mushroom and had so much good flavor to it! The biscuit was super moist but pretty crumbly. So if you're looking for a more sturdy biscuit, this isn't for you. The plate came with two eggs any way you like and hash browns. I opted for the fully loaded hash browns that were topped with cheese, bacon and onions. Amazing! I think the absolute favorite dish, according to the entire table, was the southern fried chicken and waffle. Holy cow this dish was everything. The chicken was bone in and topped with gravy and maple syrup for the perfect sweet and savory combo. I'm absolutely going back to try each and every dish on this menu. Also, don't forget to ask your server to spike your coffee beverage ;) read more

She even sent us home with extra chocolate sauce for our pancakes! read more

An amazing brunch spot that I'll definitely be coming back to! This was my first time here, but the staff were friendly, and the menu was unique but delicious. We ordered the breakfast sandwich (4.5/5) and the pork belly & biscuit (4/5). The breakfast sandwich had a variety of textures, with the soft bagel, creaminess from the cheese and cream cheese, and bite from the flavorful but not overly-greasy bacon. The hashbrowns on the side had a sprinkle of cajun seasoning but weren't as flavorful nor crispy as I usually prefer. The pork belly & biscuit was an unexpected combination -- I haven't had pork belly as juicy and tender as this before, and the mustard vinagrette was slightly sweet and not overly sour. I felt very comfortable dining with the COVID precautions put into place. They had plenty of distanced outdoor seating set out. read more

My boyfriend and I went to Hope Breakfast Bar on a Sunday morning around 11 am. Sunday at 11 is a busy time to go to brunch and there is only street parking offered so we had to park a couple blocks away from the restaurant. We walked up to the restaurant and there was a line to put your name down to get a table. We put our names down for a table and we had to wait about 40 minutes. Luckily, it was a nice day out so we were able to walk around while waiting for the table. After receiving the notice that our table was ready we walked back to Hope Breakfast Bar and got seated at the bar. The entire restaurant was packed with customers and the bar seating was no exception. We did not have much personal space but luckily we were not bothered and we received service rather quickly. We each ordered a mimosa and got those pretty quick. Although, service needed to be fast as our seats only lasted 90 minutes. I ordered the breakfast sandwich and my boyfriend ordered the pork belly biscuit. Both meals were HUGE and incredibly rich! The breakfast sandwich was really messy and was slathered with flavored cream cheese. I personally enjoy a lighter breakfast so this was a bit much for me. My boyfriend really enjoyed his pork belly biscuit and loved the flavor. However, this meal was still very rich and he barely made a dent in his meal (which is RARE). The environment of this restaurant is really fun and decorated well! Given the amount of customers I was amazed at the great service. The food was just a bit too rich for a breakfast place. read more

Service is stellar but I have to be honest the food scene isnt a thing for Minnesota. When I came to Hope Breakfast Bar I figured I would get a very good breakfast but instead the grits werent hitting on nothing heck even the eggs were just bland.

The service was friendly and consistent- they never felt like they were overbearing and were helpful with suggestions and making decisions based on what we were in the mood for. The food was fantastic. I had the blackened cauliflower which hit the spot. Also, the menu options are incredible because there's a little something for every palette- including drink options. Also, the interior of this place is beautiful. It's tight but never overwhelming. It's just busy- and for good reason. read more

My group made a reservation for Saturday morning brunch outside last weekend. The reservation option is amazing, as many popular brunch places in the Twin Cities don't have such an option. I had wanted to try Hope Breakfast Bar for a longgg time and was so excited! It was their first day of patio season. Being the first day of patio season, I'm going to take that into consideration for my review. There were a lot of hiccups during our visit - forgotten drink orders, different wait staff coming to our table which seemed to throw communication off from the floor to the kitchen, and undercooked/overcooked food. I thought my Hawaiian bowl was tasty overall but the rice was crunchy/undercooked and the poached egg came out hard boiled. They brought me a new egg when I asked for it. Someone in my party ordered the pimento scramble and it had a weird burnt chunk of bacon (?) in it and he cannot eat red meat at all due to a health condition. The avocado toast and chicken fried steak were perfect. Drinks were ok (sangria and watermelon screw driver). I would like to go back because at the end of the day, we all got what we wanted (even with multiple fixes and re-orders) and I loved the outdoor patio and ability to make a reservation. I'm hoping that after working out some kinks, our next brunch service will be perfect! read more

Visited on 10/15/22. Dang, Hope does breakfast so so well. Definitely worth getting a reservation in advance, otherwise expect a wait. I think the biggest downside to Hope is parking, as there aren't many spots open to the public near here. Almost worth it driving down closer to Bad Weather Brewing/DeGidios and making the walk over from there vs. Parking in the closest neighborhood and worrying about getting ticketed. Honestly though? This place is worth the slight parking inconvenience. I ordered the Sea Salt Caramel Latte iced, which was very sweet but still delicious. Wouldn't necessarily recommend it if you don't like your coffee too sweet but if you are into sweet coffee drinks, this is the one for you. I ordered the Pimento Cheese Scramble, my sister got the Blackened Cauliflower & Fried Egg, and together we split the Carrot Cake baby cakes. Both my sister and I agreed after trying it that we likely wouldn't order the Cauliflower again, as there were just so many other better things on the menu. Like... the pimento cheese scramble! This scramble was next level. I admit I was wary because not too many ingredients were listed in the scramble but it is absolutely amazing. So smooth and cheesy. The stack of baby cakes with the carrot cake option were fantastic and came with an amazing cream cheese maple syrup on top. We actually saved the leftovers of these for our mom who immediately declared upon trying them stated up that she wanted to visit Hope Breakfast Bar as well. If you haven't yet been here, definitely try it-worth the hype. read more
