Nutella French Toast, Hashbrowns, Toast, Carbonara Chilaquiles
Vanessa W.

My boyfriend and I came here on a Sunday around 12:20 PM. It was busy, but we got seated in about 20 minutes. The place is really cute and I loved the murals. It was definitely crowded and loud, but that didn't bother me. He ordered the Nutella French Toast and I got the Carbonara Chilaquiles. The portions were huge--honestly a little too huge for him. I kept stealing bites of the plantains, which were probably my favorite thing we had. The hash browns were really good too. The food took a little while to come out, and my chilaquiles were a bit cold when I got them. They still tasted good, but I think I would have enjoyed them more if they had been hot. Overall, it was okay. I think I expected to be more impressed than I was. I'd give it another try on a slower day and maybe order something different, but it wasn't a place that immediately made me want to come back. My boyfriend wasn't really a fan, though.

Margarita flight at 9AM!! Also got the Churro French toast, chilaquiles, and the pork-rind sandwich. It is super colorful in here and positive uplifting energy as soon as you walk in the building! Great vibes here.

I went to madres brunch in uptown Whittier couple times now. I enjoy the food I usually get the chilaquiles "the green ones are my favorite". Also tried the birria sandwich, parfait and pancakes. The coffee is a hit and miss I feel like I haven't found one that I really like. The hot chocolate is so good!! Location is not that big but they do have several tables. The only thing is that sometimes they do take a little long to take out the food but I understand they are busy for the most part.

Delish food. American food, as well as, Mexican foods with a delightful fresh spin. Love their mimosa flights. Everything we've had here is do yum: green chilaquiles , breakfast sandwich, waffles with fresh fruit, Madres chilaquiles and other items. 10/10 food and drink experience Good for large parties, too.

We had a great time. The restaurant is perfect for catching up over a meal and drink during the day. It was lively and busy but the staff were attentive and checked up on us often. We did feel like it was time to ago after eating, but it comes with the territory of a busy brunch place. The food was good here and the mimosas had nice and different flavors if you're feeling adventurous.

Came to Madres Brunch in Whittier with my family after a friend highly recommended it, and I have to say -- they were absolutely right! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the great energy and positive vibes. The atmosphere is welcoming, lively, and just puts you in a good mood right away. The service was awesome -- friendly, attentive, and on point the entire time. And the food? Excellent. My compliments to the chef! Everything we ordered was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The variety on the menu is impressive -- honestly, it made me want to order more than one plate because everything looked so good. If you're in the Whittier area, do yourself a favor and stop by. I guarantee you won't regret it. Highly recommended!

Great service! Great food! Variety of options that you won't even know what to get! Everything is really good! Drinks are also really good. Ambiance is great! 10/10!

The girlies wanted brunch. I hadn't been to this spot since it had been changed from it's former ownership and I was pleasantly surprised at how cute it was! We each ordered our dishes - I got the chilaquiles which were delicious! We got our mimosa flights and had a great time! Everyone enjoyed their food, and we will be back soon!

I was here to celebrate my daughter promoting from elementary. It's been a place I been wanting to go but was worried....it was all hype. Let me tell you it's not. Service amazing all the servers were friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I had the madre's chilaquiles and they were delicious. The sauce is home made has a little kick to it. Presentation is beautiful but taste matches it. My kids loved the experience and my hubby enjoyed his meal too!! Cleaned his plate ...glad I got a picture before. Definitely recommend to celebrate or have a nice meal. Then you can go shopping or go to the movies next door.

Steak and eggs
Elizabeth V.

Steak and eggs was okay, steak needs more flavor. Potatoes were great. & the coffee was delicious

Beautiful abundant oatmeal!
Melinda B.

Madres was really cute. The mole chilaquiles had nice flavor however they were a little dry. I like a saucy chilaquile. We also ordered the oatmeal and that was gorgeous! Oh my gosh, so many yummy topping like nuts and fruits. The staff were very nice and attentive. Over all, I do recommend this restaurant. Perhaps for me, I'll request extra sauce on my chilaquiles to suit my taste.

Mole Chilaquiles
Diana M.

Took myself on a breakfast date and found Madres Brunch on Yelp! The restaurant was good mom and pop. I would definitely come back to try other options on the menu. It was my first time and the restaurant is in a good location with parking in front and behind. I ordered the mole chilaquiles which were flavorful with a small little kick of spice. The service took a bit long to order which I would recommend being patient. Overall I had a good experience and worth checking out if you're craving chilaquiles.

Carolynn G.

Cute vibes. Came for breakfast on a Sunday and we were seated immediately. Upon leaving, there was a crowd waiting outside to be seated so they seem to get real busy after 12pm. I love the variety drink options from coffee flights to mimosa flights. I opted for their special of the day which was the Ferrer Roche Latte and it was so good! As for the food, it was mainly sweet breakfast options. We got to try the french toast, waffles, and chilaquiles. They did mess up on one of our orders but they made it right and removed it from the tab. Overall, the service was quick and they were welcoming. Cute breakfast/brunch spot for the family or even a girls brunch.

I used to love coming here for their delicious Honeycomb Crepes on Thursday morning…read more Disappointed to see the limited days now. Hopefully they will change this in the future.

Popping Yolk Café in Hacienda Heights is in the same plaza as Grab a Crab. You can't miss them…read more They are in the corner of the plaza with a bright yellow building. There is plenty of parking in the plaza. This is a fairly casual brunch. They assign you a table, give you menus, but you'll have to order and pay at the front. Not much service after you order and they drop off your food. My boyfriend has their Classic Breakfast ($18.20) and I had their Kimchi Butter Fried Chicken Benedict ($19.20). The food took a while to come out, and they came out pretty spread apart. I noticed with the other tables how one person would be halfway through by the time the other person's food came. My boyfriend's food came out before mines and I told him to eat first but he wanted to wait for me. Both of the meal came with a side salad and potatoes. I was most look forward to the salad but I was disappointed with how overly dressed and sour it was. Very imbalanced. I've been to other Popping Yolk cafes so I know it isn't meant to be this sour. Their plating also makes all the dressing leak onto the rest of the meal. Depending on what you get it can make it soggy and/or change the intended flavor profile. My boyfriend really likes their potatoes here. It's nice and crispy. It can make you full. They overly salted my potatoes so I didn't want much of it either. As for my kimchi butter fried chicken benedict... Mhmm... as a new item I HOPE they are still working through it. They put a kimchi layer directly onto the English muffin making it soggy immediately... Even on the first bite it was already soggy. By the time I was onto the second half, I just removed the muffin because it was inedible. The tasty was good. I liked the flavor combination but the execution was the big issue. The sauce and everything just made the fried chicken soft and soggy too. I want crispiness when I hear fried chicken. Oh yeah! My boyfriend also got a Pepsi ($3.25). On their menu it says the sodas are refillable. The whole time we were there I didn't see staff checking on anyone's refillable drinks. If you're expecting the refill, you might be disappointed. The experience is very casual and lackluster but the pricing is definitely on the high side. I'm not a fan.

One of my favorite breakfast spots in Whittier! Met up with…read moremy cousin to catch up over breakfast, and Toast was the perfect choice. We got there without the usual long wait, which was a nice surprise! I ordered the Cali Toast with country potatoes and a Rose Latte, and everything was so good. The Cali Toast is one of my go to orders, and the Rose Latte is definitely worth trying if you're in the mood for something a little different. We sat outside, and the patio has such a relaxing vibe, perfect for lingering over coffee and good conversation. I've been coming here for years, and it's one of those places I always find myself coming back to. Great food, friendly service, and consistently a solid breakfast spot. If you're local and haven't been yet, you're missing out!

There is an ample lot in a shared strip mall. Plenty of parking for breakfast at open on a Sunday…read more They got fairly busy right at/after open. There is more outdoor seating on the covered patio than indoor seating. Both seating areas are nice. The lady who seated us was very friendly and pretty attentive and especially considering she wad handling a lot of other tables. Both the house eggs Benedict and house French toast were good. Was expecting crispy bacon on the benny considering the description, but the only difference from classic seemed to be the avocado. The benny egg and muffin were both collected well, especially the eggs they did a great job on those. Wife didn't like the flavor of the hollandaise sauce, but thought it was fine. She liked the French toast much better. You did not need syrup as the butter cream and chocolate sauce were plenty sweet on their own. Half serving is probably ok for one person, full was nice to share. The bathroom was clean, large, and single person--great for a pit stop before you head out! The mason jar waters were cool. Overall, nice local joint for a peaceful weekend or vacation breakfast. Definitely recommend giving them a try. Will be back sometime.
