Love. Usually when I visit trendy looking food places, their product lack both quality & originality at a good price. AKA they're disappointing & suck. Martha's is built different. The small, hole-in-the-wall space makes it feel like you've been a local for years on your first visit. Plus the retro tv is sick. Gotta get the egg, cheese, & sausage sandwich w/ the homemade fries & sunshine sauce - trust. read more

Martha On The Fly - Ambiance - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Very delicious start to the day! Ordered online right before they opened and had our food by 9:20. Super tiny spot but they were speedy with making our order and it's super cute. I had the sausage sandwich and added tomato jam, and my bf got the sandwich with baloney and onions. It was my first time and I loved my sandwich, portions are HUMONGOUS, I was really hungry and only ate half. Sausage was flavorful, plenty of cheese, really good bread and the egg patty is really tasty and good texture. My bf enjoyed his but said he likes the sausage sandwich better, he'd been before. We both agreed the tomato jam was a bit too sweet and we'd have liked a little less of it, but yummy still! The cornmeal fries are the star of the show. Holy YUM these were so good, we each got an order and I'm glad we did cause sharing wouldn't have been enough. The sauce that came with was delicious, and they were so crisp on the outside but soft and flavorful. Would come back for these alone read more

This place is so cute! We sat at the counter and had our breakfast. The person who took our order was super friendly and the staff made sure we had everything we needed! I had the Pearl, which was a mushroom sausage. Not my fave! I think I will go with meat next time, but the flavor was good so I did eat it! My spouse got the bacon sandwich and loved it. We shared the cornmeal fries and they were really yummy. Highly recommend! read more

Really small place - you'll blink if you miss it. But don't miss it. Loving the tunes they have on while I'm here as well, rocking some 80s, followed by Pitbull. My Cold brew coffee was good. Service was friendly and fast. The Betty sandwich was delicious!! And it's a good size for the price. Don't miss this place and go get a great breakfast sandwich. read more

It was our first time in and we enjoyed the funky, fun atmosphere. Just 4 stools at the breakfast bar and a couple of two seater tables out front so most of their business is carryout and they were busy! The server was friendly and helpful - she really knew the products. I had the Pearl which is a breakfast sandwich with a mushroom burger patty - it was very tasty though I had to finish with a fork and knife because of the avocado spread and special sauce. My friend had the Betty and really enjoyed it. We shared the potato cake which was good sized for sharing. read more

I've heard a lot of great things about this place and finally had the chance to try them out when I was in the area for a Cavs game. I ordered the Betty (bacon, egg, American cheese, and signature sauce) while my fiancé ordered the Doris (sausage). For $12, you get a huuuuge breakfast sandwich on a brioche bun. It was so tasty! The bread wasn't dry at all. I highly recommend! read more

I have heard so much about this cute little place & finally had the time to go! This was my first time so I stuck with the good old classic Jane sandwich! It was so big but delicious! The egg patty was the most perfect thing I've seen and the sunshine sauce was delicious! The staff was also so so nice, the nicest people I have encountered in a while! Haha I can't wait to come back and try a different sandwich and those cornmeal fries are CALLING my name!! read more

A must try on a beautiful day outside. I love the idea of this place, I just wish they had more seating. I can't imagine eating here in the dead of winter and not living in the area. I'd hate to have to drive home before eating and the food not being as fresh. The service was great and we didn't have to wait too long to get our food. About 15-20 minutes. The portions are massive and I like that everything is homemade. People rave about their cornmeal fries but as a person with texture issues I wasn't a fan of the mushy inside. Overall worth stopping in. Maybe I just haven't found the right items for me yet. read more

If these pictures look sparse, it's because the food they contained was almost immediately demolished. We got the Jane (a classic breakfast sandwich with an egg patty), and a custom sandwich with the mushroom sausage patty, tomato jam, and caramelized onions. The buns were perfectly light and fluffy, and I highly recommend adding tomato jam to whatever you get. I also tried cornmeal fries for the first time, and thought they were great: soft on the inside with a filling most comparable to grits, and crispy on the outside. The space is indeed small (but very cutely decorated) with four seats inside and some limited outdoor seating. They text you when your order is ready and you just come pick it up. We lucked into the spots inside, and I have to shout out the service--the staff made me feel like I was at a sit down restaurant with their attentiveness. Would return any time I'm in Tremont! read more

long story short: great breakfast sandwich We went on a busy Sunday morning & were slightly overwhelmed by the amount of people crammed in the tiny storefront. The people behind the counter were kind & efficient. We placed our order & took a walk around the block, as they would text us when the food was ready. We got a Betty, a Doris, & the fries. Everything was delicious- hot & well-flavored & very filling. I would definitely come back for these breakfast sandwiches! read more

While small, the storefront is welcoming and has a classic look. The food is beyond words. You will be full the entire day, in the best way. You cannot go wrong picking a sandwich. Adding the Avocado Mash or the Apple Jam only enhances the flavors. A truly perfect grab n' go breakfast sandwich experience. read more

It's a 4 seat spot inside Predominately take out. It's small. However, the flavor is BIG. WORTH EVERY PENNY AND CALORIE. I'm not a big Sammie person... the breakfast Sammie, just got added to the rotation. They also have HOMEMADE PIE, yes that's right HOMEMADE PIE. I saw 2 cooling in the window, I begged, maybe leaked a tear, and tried to bribe my way into a slice. The pie had to cool. If it's half as good as the Sammie... well, imma just buy a bigger size pants... I will definitely be back read more

This was my second time trying Martha on the fly and I have to say its one of the best if not thee best breakfast sandwiches Ive ever had. I got the betty this time and added sausage and caramelized onions. It was so good! The cornmeal fries with sauce were good too. I dont think it's cheap, but Its worth it to me. Around $14 per sandwich depending on what you get on it. Online ordering and pickup is super easy. Its small but cute inside. Now everytime I go to the area I have to stop here! read more

When visiting the Cleveland area for the first time, I heard about Martha's online. I love a breakfast sandwich so I was excited to try it out. When we got there we did not realize the building was so small, but we got lucky and were able to sit at two of the barstools at the counter. The server immediately recognized we were new and offered her help with the menu. I got the Betty, that's basically just egg and bacon. The sandwich was HUGE and the brioche bun it comes on is made in house. The egg patty itself was super thick and the bacon had great flavor. I wasn't a major fan of the sunshine sauce it comes with, but my partner loved it. I would compare it to a butter or aioli. The star of the show, for us, was the fries. They're a mix of grits and cornmeal and fried into logs. I have been thinking about them for 3 weeks now. Seriously, make sure to he them. Great food, great service, and I'll absolutely go back (or maybe just order to go) when I'm back in town. read more

service was awesome!! the most personable and genuine staff i have ever encountered. she was taking orders, handing out orders, making coffee and still made a point to connect with every single person that came in. she was fantastic and great at her job!!! for the food, it was pretty good, different than any other breakfast i've ever had, but it was good! Loved the vintage style look and the concept of the restaurant. read more

I'm not quite sure how to properly word how good this place is. We were in town for work for 7 days and this is where I got breakfast 3 of the days because we loved it so much! The cornmeal fries were something different, but good! Very crispy, and the sauce is great. Definitely a different texture, but in a good way. I got the Doris add bacon each time and it was delicious. The signature square egg is perfectly fluffy, the sausage was good, and the bacon is super thick and delicious. The bun was fluffy and soft as well. The sandwich was so filling as well. I also got a cinnamon roll once to try and it was good! The icing has lemon in it, so if you don't like lemon then it isn't for you. It was a good size/ not huge but not small. We also got a slice of the chocolate peanut butter pie to have one night for dinner and it was so good! Didn't get a picture because I forgot. Shout out to their packaging as well- it's all so nice and high quality. I am from California, so I am sad to leave Martha behind! Definitely grab a sandwich, you won't regret it! read more

Wow, I'm so excited we tried Martha's!! My husband and I were staying at an AirBnb nearby and decided to walk down to Martha's for some breakfast. What a great decision! The inside is really small, but don't let that dissuade you. The counter is manned by a staff of some of the most friendly people I've ever met! The menu consists of a set of absolutely delicious breakfast sandwiches, complemented by hand brown disks and other small bites. We ordered the "Doris" (pork smash party with egg and cheese) and the "Agnes" (shaved steak with egg and cheese). I opted to add the caramelized onions and avocado to my Agnes and it was insanely good! The inside of the tiny restaurant does have a counter to eat at and is impeccably clean and well kept and very cute. I highly recommend stopping by! Pro tip: ADD the caramelized onions, you won't regret it! read more

Wow, what a great spot! I came here to get breakfast before my gig. Best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Unique egg patty with perfectly cooked bacon, a Hollandaise-esque sauce, and cheese with two soft buns. The servers were super friendly and let me enjoy my order at the counter, even though I intended it for pick up. The ambiance is small, so if you're going to eat here, be prepared to eat outside or on the go, as space is extremely limited. Overall, 10/10 recommend! read more

Perfect 10/10 Black Friday breakfast! Sat at the counter and was warmly welcomed. Great vintage vibe- felt like I stepped back in time. The Doris sausage and egg sandwich as amazing- my partner had the griddled steak sandwich and his brother had the baloney.

Martha On The Fly is definitely one of the best breakfast sandwich options in Cleveland. Always hot and fresh with good flavors. I initially went in for one of their egg sandwiches, but they had a breakfast burrito special on the menu, so I decided to try it out. All the components were really tasty. The meat was juicy and flavorful and the breakfast potatoes on the inside were cooked crispy outside, soft inside. I think the salsa that they provided on the side was needed complimented the burrito well. It provided an extra kick of flavor. I always seem to get breakfast here, but they have other offerings. read more

Here on a musical RoadTrip. We stayed in Tremont which is a fabulous neighborhood with great options for food. We found Martha via internet search and we definitely scored. The eggs are made in such a way it's like biting into a custard cake with out all that sugary dessert taste. It's real egg flavor. The buns are soft and tasty. One of the best breakfast sandwiches ever. Location is small no indoor seating. A few chairs outside. Worst part is the local bees that will buzz you and your food. But they don't hurt so bee kind. read more

Love this cute little space and the indulgent breakfast fare that they offer! Inside has four bar-counter style seats and outdoors there are a couple of small tables (and some larger picnic bench style seating on the nearby street corner). Most folks simply took their meals to-go, but we sat inside to experience the hustle-n-bustle vibe of the place. Given it was our first time here, we went a bit overboard with the food ordering...next time we may just get a singular sandwich and a potato side and split them both as the portions are gigantic and filling. For this maiden voyage, we ordered two breakfast sandwiches (the Betty and the Pearl) along with a potato crispie, a cinnamon roll and two regular drip coffees. All items are made-to-order, so there was a bit of a wait for the food to be ready. Coffees were poured and delivered, then all the food items arrived at once. We rolled up our sleeves and dug in! The potato crispie was like a giant hash brown patty served with their signature sunshine sauce (like a mild hollandaise)...would have preferred a bit more seasoning on the patty. The Betty breakfast sandwich was served on a bun with thick-cut bacon, a fried egg, melted American cheese and sunshine sauce. It was gooey, messy and delicious! The Pearl sandwich was even better, served with a mushroom "sausage" patty, egg patty and avocado spread. Between the mushrooms and the avocado it had a wonderfully creamy texture and flavor. Their cinnamon roll had a unique icing flavored with orange and vanilla, but was served cold (definitely needs to be warmed up). If you are near downtown and in need of a filling meal in a seriously chill vibe (either to eat in or takeaway) then this is the spot for you. So glad we finally made it here...it will not be our last visit!!! read more

Stop what you're doing and go there now. Breakfast sandwiches are INCREDIBLE and service is super friendly!

My husband and I came on a Saturday at around 11 and no line. We were even able to snag two seats at the counter to enjoy our sandwiches. We both got the Betty, but he added avocado. Staff were all very friendly. Our sandwiches came out quickly but were fresh. The sandwich was soooo good though. Loads of bacon, delicious sauce, American cheese with is nostalgic, soft buttery bun. It kept me full for 6 hours lol. Definitely recommend if you want an epic breakfast sandwich. read more

Expensive but delicious food mostly sold to go from a tiny old school diner. They have excellent environmentally friendly packaging. The cornmeal fries were ungodly good. Perfectly seasoned and not bland with an ideal fried outer crisp and inner softness! The cinnamon roll was odd. Not my thing. It was so chewy it was gummy like and had to be cut w a knife. It had hints of orange flavor. The icing was cream cheese flavor and just kinda wasn't my jam. The Pearl sandwich had a fat square egg patty, plenty of avocado, a mushroom patty, and cheese in addition to a strange citrus sort of tart sauce somewhere I could not identify. It was maybe the sunshine sauce? It was unusual and I did not want the citrus sort of bittersweet zing in the sandwich that was otherwise good. Shoulda just put mayo on there in my opinion. Not bad despite the weird flavor or sauce though the only thing I'd buy again here is an order of the delicious cornmeal fries! read more

I was out doing errands and purposely left home hungry in order to try out a breakfast place and I ended up here - excited to finally stop by when they're open. The interior is small with seating at the bar for about 3 people. This is a stop and go type of place. I got retro-vibes, helped by the tiny tv in the upper corner that was playing. I got thr Betty and it was delicious, simple but hearty and hit the spot. I also got the cornmeal fries because I was very curious and they were tasty. Definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

Friends, there is a reason Martha has 5 stars. That should be enough if a review for ya. I love breakfast. And sandwiches. After an event in Ohio City, I talked my husband into breakfast at Martha. First off, they were so nice. I also couldn't believe all the exquisite specials! Their normal menu is simple, but still lots to offer. We both went with a classic sandwich and we're not disappointed! Husband has quite an appetite and often at places like this, portions aren't enough for him. Not the case here! Nice big sandwiches with fluffy egg, delicious bun... and sunshine sauce? It's what dreams are made of. Plenty of thick bacon too! I also tried a potato crispy. I liked the crunch, but something about the sauces or apple or something wasn't for me. Will def try a different flavor next time. We enjoyed our Sammie's at a little table outside. What a great experience. Highly tecommend read more

It's nice to have a breakfast spot in Tremont that's open earlier in the day, a lot of other places may not open until 11AM on weekends. I love getting to support local and family owned businesses. The sandwiches are extremely filling. I do think they are slightly expensive but it's definitely enough food. Cornmeal fries were interesting, fun to try, but I still prefer regular fries. The sauces they offer are amazing!!! read more

A slice of diner heaven in Tremont. I never had the chance to check out Martha when they were doing their pop-ups, but no doubt their success is reflected in their ability to get a much coveted retail space in the heart of Tremont. Being Tremont, street parking is the name of the game and can be hit or miss. The storefront is pretty small and easy to miss as well - unless you look for the gaggle of people next to two tiny cyan sidewalk tables waiting outside for their food. If you spot an open seat at the larger picnic tables at the intersection of W 10th and Professor/Fairfield Ave, try to snag it early for when your food is ready. On a Sunday morning about an hour after opening, there was already one party at each of the sidewalk tables and several people waiting for their order. Inside, there's counter seating for four and barely enough room for 2 other people in front of the counter - hence why you'll be asked to wait outside for your food. COVID awareness, thank you! Everything is shiny and new, but with a strong retro vibe. Staff are very friendly and chill. One of them even chased me down the sidewalk as I was wandering and waiting to give me my Horchatte! Everyone is showing off plants these days, and you'll find a Conga line of mini plants lining the high windowsill. There are no menus posted on the wall, but you can find the full menu online (including the daily Fly By) or on a printed menu on the counter. If you don't know what you want yet, give the cashier your name and phone number to get the process rolling for text notifications. The food came more quickly than I expected, and best experienced hot. The Fly By Mortadella Pesto was so tender and juicy, and I'm not sure the bun would have survived the drive home. But what a delicious combo! The Lox Potato Crispy was also a unique spin on classic breakfast items and supremely tasty. Overall the food is on the heavier side and I'd recommend splitting a Crispy if you're planning on getting a sandwich as well since the portions are bigger than than the tiny menu and inside would suggest! You won't find a public restroom here, but there are multiple trashcans located at the intersection to toss your trash once you've licked the wrappers clean. Can't wait to return and try more of their revamped breakfast creations! read more
