Neighborhood Cafe - Eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

The good: great food, staff, and ambiance! The bad: we've been to this restaurant several times but we've decided not to go back. The reason is simple: we're tired of paying $2.50 for an extra biscuit! We go there for their biscuits and gravy but the order only comes with 1 biscuit and when we ask for another biscuit- it becomes like an episode of Seinfeld! Instead of being the "soup Nazi's", the are the "Biscuit Nazi's"! read more

Great service, delicious food and perfect family, friendly atmosphere. My favorites are their Eggs Benedict and French Dip. read more

Neighborhood Cafe is a must-visit! This was our second time eating here while on vacation, and it was just as good as we remembered--maybe even better! It's the perfect down-home breakfast spot. Definitely a local favorite (everyone seemed to know each other!), but we were welcomed with open arms. The atmosphere is friendly, the service is kind, and the food is absolutely delicious. I had bacon, eggs, hash browns, and grits--all cooked to perfection. My husband had eggs, bacon, hash brown casserole, and blueberry pancakes. Every bite was amazing! We'll be back every year for sure. Thanks for making us feel like part of the neighborhood! read more

We tried the Neighborhood Cafe today. We loved it! Friendly staff, excellent coffee, great food! A pleasant experience. Would highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Never have had a bad meal hear. And that is a lot of meals! Breakfast is the best, and lunch is just as delish. Their lunch specials are the bomb. Down home atmosphere, and the servers have been there long term, which says it all. read more

I was really excited to try this place as I'm new to the area and it came recommended by my coworkers, but I ended up being very disappointed. I got an omelette but the omelette itself was maybe 1mm thick? 1.5mm if I'm being generous. I swapped cheeses and was charged $3 for a minuscule amount of cheese and wasn't told there'd be an upcharge. None of it felt like restaurant quality. The service was mediocre and was never offered a refill on my drink. I'm just saddened by the poor quality of food and the overall experience. I hate to say it but the IHOP in town is better :( read more

Great breakfast, been going for years!love everything about it! Service always great!

Food was good but for 3 and one being a kid, we spent $50 on breakfast without a tip. I would've been happy with Waffle House food just the same. Service was good. Seems to be more of a local joint. read more

Four of us went and the staff were very friendly! I ordered the ribeye and eggs which were cooked perfectly and tasted phenomenal. We also ordered the lumberjack breakfast and the western omelet, both of which got rave reviews. Clean bathrooms and restaurant as well - all around a great breakfast joint with excellent food! read more

This is my sons favorite place for an omelet. It's super thin prepared on a griddle. You can clearly taste all the flavors. Definitely recommend read more

Neighborhood Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

Average but local favorite place to eat. Back for my 3rd time as this place is not too far from the church we attend. We arrived around 9:30 and were able to get in. As different churches were let out the customers coming here had a wait by the time we left. Usually pancakes, waffles or breakfast sandwiches and scrambled/easy over eggs have been ordered in the past, with success. This time all 4 of us ordered omelet's. #1. Loaded omelet $13.49. I'm thinking this is a 2 egg omelet as the egg part was so thin you could hardly taste the egg. Not even sure how they were able to fill it with so much filling without it breaking apart. Inside was green pepper, onion, ham, bacon, sausage, tomato, American cheese and hash browns. Biscuit and and cheesy grits were chicken for the sides. The omelet was full and tasted with all the ingredients. On the first bite a cold chunk of sausage was a surprise but the remainder of the omelet was warm. Cheese grits were pretty tasteless. Salt, butter and hot sausage was added to help but it did not really help. It tastes more like a cream of wheat than grits. The biscuit was ok. #2 Veggie omelet $11.59. This omelet has green peppers, onions, tomato and mushrooms with cheddar cheese. It was pretty skimpy. A biscuit and home fries were the sides picked. Nothing special here. #3 under the Supersized omelettes a ham and cheese was ordered. The omelet did take up more space on the plate. But it was skimpy inside also with a chunk of cheese in one bite and that was the cheese for the whole ham and cheese omelette. A side of biscuit and hash browns with hash browns which were pretty generic. #4 also under the Supersized Omelettes for $11.49 but not sure why because it looked like the first two was ordered the Polish Omelet. This omelet has green pepper, onion, polish sausage and cheddar cheese inside and like the other omelets, except the loaded omelet, was pretty skimpy. All 4 of us agreed that the omelets were not that good and will not order again. Customer service was excellent which helped to bump this to a 3 review. We will still go back here but just not order the omelets. read more

The food was OK, pancakes were tough. The waitress was super nice. Place was not decorated very well and it was cold and lifeless. The prices definitely don't match the meal or the place too expensive. read more

The menu is large and will have something for everyone. I love their pancakes and omelets! The service is always quick and friendly. Even when they are busy. The ambiance has a country home feel. I always stop in when I am in town!! read more

Highly recommend for a great breakfast experience! We stayed on Okaloosa island so this was a little further out but well worth the trip. We were seated as soon as we arrived, the service is great! Everyone was warm and welcoming. This is a laid back, family friendly environment! Kids are welcomed, they had color sheets and a Mickey pancake option on the kids menu. I ordered the eggs benedict and my husband had the corn beef hash and both were delicious. The hollandaise sauce was SO good! We will definitely visit again when we are in the area! read more

the french toast is to die for. soft and tasty! I wish I could remember our servers name because she went above and beyond and was super friendly and helpful. the building was a little strange, looked like a bank or something from the outside but as soon as you walk in the doors you're in a whole different ambiance. no complaints whatsoever on any of our food- they had some unique options that you don't find at many run-of-the-milk breakfast places. would def return! read more

Neighborhood Cafe - a breakfast of eggs, bacon, toast, and coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

When you're looking for a hearty breakfast, a warm welcome, and a spot that serves breakfast and lunch, this is your place! They have a huge menu, a counter to sit at, and many booths/tables. No matter if you want an omelet, corned beef hash, a club sandwich, or biscuits and gravy, this is your go-to place! Servers are always friendly and the place is clean. My only reason for giving it 4 instead of 5 stars is I think their prices are a bit high and with so many things as a la carte, you can spend upwards of $40 on breakfast. read more

The service was great from the moment we walked in the door! The food was delicious as well! Recommend!

First time visitors for this decorative little cafe , and we really enjoyed our visit . We felt welcomed from the moment we walked in. The server was very attentive, and kept our coffee full the entire time . We tried the garbage omelette per the server's recommendation. It did not disappoint! We also tried the strawberry stuffed French toast . It was delicious read more

We visited on a Monday morning. From the outside of the restaurant is a nondescript exterior, but once you go in you'll see a cute interior of vintage kitchen decor/memorabilia and beautiful wooden booths. Our server was polite and attentive. We had the blueberry stuffed French toast, garbage omelette with biscuit and hash brown casserole, and the kids Mickey pancake with a side of bacon. The pancake seemed a little overdone and not fluffy, but it was shaped liked Mickey.The rest of our food was delicious! No military discount offered. read more

Place was very clean and not to busy! Customer service was amazing and friendly! The food was good and hot! They brew me a fresh pot of decaffeinating coffee! Thank you ladies so much! read more

Neighborhood Cafe - Cup of decaf coffee! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

Cute little place, has some charm and like a diner feel, with cute things on the wall. Service was great and pretty quick, while still allowing us to engage in conversation without feeling rushed. I got the country fried steak w sides and that was delicious. My husband got French toast with sausage & hash browns, sausage was pretty over cooked, but he liked everything else. We will definitely be back since other items on the menu caught our eye. It is kind of pricey though, so just fyi read more

3.5 Looking for a family-friendly experience? Neighborhood Cafe is where you can get one. On their website you'll find the statement: "Since opening May 1, 2005, we've treated every customer like they were a part of our family." Much to our pleasure, the greeting and attentiveness we received on our recent visit filled that statement perfectly. Our servers were efficient, congenial, and friendly. They checked back on us several times during our visit. 5 Star Service! Now, as for the food...In my family we have some great cooks including a professional chef, some really good cooks, and a few other family members who have trouble boiling water. Somewhere in between those boundaries is where we found the food/chef skills at Neighborhood Cafe. To our chagrin, our breakfast fare was just a run-of-the-mill, nothing special meal. The reviews I had read had gotten my hopes up, but the reality is that while the service is A+, the food is just C or average at best. The omelets my wife and I ordered (a Polish Sausage and Veggie and a Veggie and Cheese) were cooked as requested. And the home fries accompanying mine were very, very tasty. In fact, the seasonings of pepper, salt, and (likely) thyme were the most savory part of this meal. Sadly, those two things - eggs and potatoes - were the highlights. The grits were gritty, dry, and as bland as they possibly could be. The toast was slathered with margarine to the extent that my wife scrapped it off in blobs (check the pic.) My buttermilk biscuit was baked and browned nicely, flaky and tender. But there was a slight metal taste (perhaps the leavening?). I'm sure that could be masked with a good portion of gravy. Finally, presentation was sorely lacking: no flare, no garnishes, (except one small slice of Kielbasa on my omelet and a slice of mushroom on my wife's). That's a creative way to identify which is which, but is rather sparse in terms of presentation. And although both omelets were cooked successfully, for the most part, the taste was uninspiring - very little seasoning. So our trip to the neighborhood was not a trip to Grandma's or Cousin Rob's but rather one to an unnamed relative's house where they have a penchant for reheating store-bought breakfast items. I still recommend this place for fair prices and relatively consistent food - just don't expect anything fancy or dressed up. read more

Food was great. Priced on the high side for breakfast but everyone had plenty to eat. Omelets were very good along with the hash browns. The pancakes were rather flat but would go back. read more

Great food. Friendly, fast service. Ample portions. Stopped in with 2 friends on my way back to NY. Loved being able to have sweet tea with my breakfast. Both servers on shift checked on us multiple times. Great quality food. Pricing is a little higher than other places in the area, but upon receiving our food we saw the portions are larger than normal! read more

This is the local mom-and-pop restaurant that you think of when you reminisce of your hometown. Neighborhood Cafe is a breakfast/brunch spot to grab a cup of coffee and a plate of eggs, toast, and hashbrowns. They were previously located in the TJ Maxx strip mall in between the PetLand and Tropical Smoothie Cafe, however they have moved into the former bank at the entrance of the plaza. Their new location is spacious and bright, but it still captures the small town charm. The kitchen and seating areas are much larger and spread out, so the wait times have dropped significantly. The food is always served hot, the hashbrowns are crunchy, the ham with the bone in, the sunny-side up egg yolks are runny, and the toast is pre-buttered. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu whether it's the french toast, BLT, or their version of pigs in a blanket. read more

Great place for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Perfectly sized menu and plenty of seating. Especially considering it used to be a bank. Never had a bad item and the staff are great. My only wish is that they were open later so I could come by after work! Highly recommend the French dip sandwich! read more

Great service. Great staff. Quick turnaround on my meal. Everything was prepared as ordered.

Following all COVID guidelines which was nice to experience. Excellent breakfast spot! Friendly service and amazing food. The pancakes were delightful, blueberry and the chocolate chip. Hash browns were cooked spot on, crispy outside with a soft inside. read more

Frustrating place, doesn't seem competent, can't imagine what the food must taste like. I ordered ahead then when I got there they told me they won't put in the order until I get there. They had really cheap steaks, so that should be a good indication of the food quality. Update: seems someone "replied" yet didn't have the reading comprehension to actually address what I said. read more

Always friendly staff! Omelettes are amazing and there is a nice selection to choose from menu wise.

Good food and excellent service. The only problem is the coffee that tastes like it has been run through the same filter a few times. We go because it's a great place except for the coffee. read more

Great place for brunch. Came in around 11:30 and was immediately seated. Staff was incredibly friendly and gave recommendations. Food was delicious and filling. Will come back! read more
