Got a moldy raspberry when I ordered side of fruits. And I thought this cafe was established? Why do they have to use someone else's cup and place their sticker over it? Hopefully Boston Market is getting a portion of the sale. read more

We've eaten here every weekend for the last 2 months. The Irish style home fries are amazing. I say this because they are crispier than you would expect and not overtly greasy/oily. As I slowly work my way through the menu i can say with confidence the breakfast, lunch, and drinks have not disappointed. The staff is friendly and the vibe is very familial. This establishment has been around forever and if you're in the area i would highly recommend stopping by. read more

CARNITAS OMELETTE. That's the review, I've been coming here for years and used to come at the crack of dawn just to get it before it sold out. Now I find out that it's a regular on the menu and I couldn't be happier!! I will make the drive everytime it's so worth it! We had the nicest host, Nina was so attentive and funny. Definitely made my experience all the better. Also a huge fan of the new decor the lights on the ceiling are such a nice touch! Can't wait for the next time! read more

A city of Orange Classic. We have eaten here multiple times over the years but hadn't gone in a while. The place was just like we remembered. Good food, good service, good people. It's glad to see things have stayed just as we thought. read more

We came here on Memorial Day for breakfast. The restaurant is located right off N Tustin with plenty of parking. You can sit anywhere you like. Service is on point. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the eggs Benedict with hash browns and my husband ordered two eggs scrambled, extra crispy hash browns, sausage patty and pancake. The eggs Benedict had way too much sauce and I went to the bathroom for an hour after eating it. Not sure what I ate that didn't agree with my stomach. My husband said his meal was okay too. I ate half of his sausage patty and it was under flavored. After todays meal, it confirmed that I do not like breakfast. We won't be returning or recommending based on our experience today. read more

Exceptional food and service. I had a breakfast scramble and it was perfection accompanied by fresh fruit and sourdough toast. Sat outside on a beautiful sunny day. read more

Small cafe that feels very much like eating with family. The pancakes are big and fluffy, I'd come back for the sourdough toast alone, and the servers were super nice and welcoming. I'd come back for Nina and her jokes alone! read more

wanted to get breakfast, and also wanted to try something new. This diner is hidden from the main street, and is tucked away in the middle of a mini strip mall. we got really lucky and found parking right in front, but i can see how it would be problematic if you go during the weekends... you may need to park on the street. We ended up getting an omelette, and two egg benedicts. Personally, i got the sausage eggs benedict with hashbrowns and it was really tasty. The other items were filling and great tasting as well. If you order an omelette, you also get a choice of carbs (toast, bagel, muffin, or pancakes.) They also have items for lunch such as sandwiches, salads and burgers. When we got there, it was fairly crowded. The seats inside were mainly taken, and there are a few seats outside as well. The people working there are friendly, but it seemed short staffed the day we went. read more

Great service and delicious food! We live in the neighborhood and this is our go to breakfast spot. The updated interior is beautiful, but we love that the items that made us fall in love with place are still on the menu. read more

By far one of my favorite places to grab breakfast! Great quality food and has an amazing ambiance! I love the fact there's never a long wait, even during the weekend! I would highly recommend the country fried steak or the eggs Benedict (portions are massive which is a plus). A big shout out to Maria for always providing outstanding service with a smile! Thank you for always being attentive and super friendly :) read more

Orange Cafe Bistro - Country fried steak and eggs Benedict! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Orange, California

Just had another amazing breakfast here! We are visiting from NorCal and have tried numerous breakfast places in the area: iHop, Huckleberry's, etc. None of them compare to the quality of the food and great, friendly service. Debbie is an awesome waitress who served us with friendly smiles and quick service. Best place in the area for breakfast by FAR! If you want a good, not-so-crowded breakfast spot with all-around great food and service, this place must be on your list! Love this place! read more

This is such a cute little cafe. It's definitely a little hidden, but it's a cool find. The parking lot is a bit small and it's shared with a 5-6 other stores. I got the carnitas omelette with fruit and home potatoes for my sides (14.99). The omelette was was interesting. Instead of having the omelette filling cooked in the egg it was just sandwiched in between the cooked egg. Nevertheless, it was still pretty good. It tasted a lot like home cooked eggs. The carnitas itself was pretty moist, but could use a little more flavor. I really liked the salsa verde they drizzled on top of the omelette though! The home potatoes were soft and yummy, but they felt a tad oily and needed a bit more seasoning as well. Overall: 8/10 Food: 7/10 Service: 9/10 Ambiance: 8/10 Price: $$, $14.99 for a decent portion size read more

Orange Cafe Bistro - Carnitas Omelette with home potatoes and fruit ($14.99) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Orange, California

New management. Prices are increased and don't match the quality. The younger male kept making errors with orders, checks, table service everyone looked grumpy and the owner waited on us and made no attempt to be friendly. We miss the relaxed vibe with the fabulous 3 servers that could run circles around the place and make you feel welcomed. That home touch is gone. It's very sad. read more

Hidden gem. Food is sooo delicious and service is super. Breakfast and lunch. Highly recommended

Just recently discovered this place and it is outstanding. I have eaten there twice and the service has been excellent both times with my coffee cup never reaching empty before being refilled multiple times. They have the best corn beef hash I have had in California and the second best I have encountered in all of my travels. Check it out. read more

I went to check out Orange Cafe with a friend. Their food was quite tasty. I had the eggs, with home fries, and the pancake while my friend had the country fried steak. My favorite were the home fries, I recommend those instead of the hash browns. They come with sautéed onions and peppers. My friend said the country fried steak was good. The gravy is on the sweeter side and she prefers it to be more savory but she still enjoyed it. We also both had vanilla cappuccinos which were good as well. They do come with a lot of whipped cream, so if that's not your thing, ask them to skip it. I will say that the service wasn't great. I got their before my friend and no one greeted me, and it looked like it was a self-seating situation which is fine but I sat at a table that had been used. It still had the bill and tip on the table. I sat there for about 5 minutes without being acknowledged so I went up to the front and asked if I needed to order there or if someone would come and take my order. She mentioned the kitchen was backed up and she would have someone come clean the table. I understood completely as I know many small businesses are understaffed right now. She came and cleaned the table after I said something and I grabbed my own menus. However, my friend finally got there and we sat there for another 10 minutes without someone coming by. Two other parties sat themselves after we got there and they took their drink orders before us. So I went up to the front again, and I politely asked if someone could come take our order. I felt like she felt a little annoyed with me at this point but I had to speak up because other people were getting their orders in and we had been there for some time without someone at least taking our drink orders. She sent a man to take our order after that, and thereafter the service was pretty quick. Other than feeling a little uncomfortable with the service, the food was good and I'll likely give this place another try. read more

Cute little Cafe! The staff was friendly. I had gotten scrambled eggs with vegetables and a side of hasbrowns while my man had gotten a breakfast burrito. The breakfast burrito had eggs, vegetables and Hashbrown. Overall, everything was pretty good. Might stop by if we are in the area again. read more

Just had a really great breakfast here this morning. The breakfast selections were a nice variety of choices, and prepared perfectly. it was our first time here and the owner Sean was very welcoming and took the time to talk to us, which you don't get very often. We will be back! read more

This place is tiny, and loud. We stopped in for a Sunday brunch before hopping into the car for the drive home. There were about three other parties ahead of us, which meant we had a 30 minute wait for a table. It wasn't terrible, and we made friends with a guy and his dog while we waited. I kind of feel like they were short-staffed the day we went. There was one waitress and one lady who seemed like the manager for the whole restaurant. I mentioned that the place is tiny, but they were still doing a booming business and every one of their dozen or so tables were filled. I want to give the waitress a pass because she was so busy, but she didn't seem to have a problem serving the tables around us at all. For my meal, I went with the Country Scramble (basically a deconstructed omelet with sausage, topped with sausage gravy), wheat toast and a side of hash browns. My husband opted for the Country Benedict, which came with eggs and a side; he chose the cottage cheese. The food was okay, but not worth the wait. The sausage gravy was a bit bland, and the eggs were overcooked to the point of rubbery-ness. The hash browns were some of the best I've had in a while...but if the one thing I'm praising is a side, something's wrong. My husband did love his Benny, but couldn't bring himself to eat the cottage cheese side. It was super watery (you can see that in the picture), and he said it had an off taste. But, he loved his main, and only complained about a side that they probably have in bulk. Opposite of my experience, but it counts. The coffee wasn't all that great, and we didn't get refills on our water or the coffee, but by the time we got around to really needing it, we were done. I doubt we'll be back. read more

This is a great place for breakfast, it doesn't dissapoint. I usually get something basic like the two eggs any style, but this time I got the gourmet omelette. It was pretty good! I am a sucker for avocado on omelettes. Their coffee is typical diner coffee, kind of week so that's the only thing I don't like. The service is always great and the wait staff is very friendly. They just added shade to their outdoor seating area by installing a divider between the tables and the parking lot, so now it's much more pleasant to sit outside. read more

Solid breakfast spot. Not anything exceptional, but the food is good. It's small and quaint, and where the locals go every weekend.

This review is not based on the food but based on the change of management: My husband and I moved away from orange in 2020. We LOVED coming to orange cafe. They were the "mom and pop" breakfast place we would go to often. Food was delicious, environment was old school and traditional, and the staff was amazing (they knew ALL the regulars, young and old). We recently visited again this past week and it made me sad that they no longer are under the same management. Orange cafe didn't need to become "hip". It didn't need to start serving alcohol or change its Route 66 vive. It didn't need to be playing loud music in the morning. Shoot, the menu didn't need to change :( Upon arriving, we just noticed something was off. Sitting inside and looking around just made me think orange cafe doesn't know what it wants to be. The transition is like they wanted to add "young" on top of the old restaurant that it was. Anyways, sad to see it change. The food has changed. It didn't taste the same. The vibe is different. Don't think we'll come back. But I'm sure if you've never been here, eh, you might enjoy it. read more

My friends and I met here for brunch and were very pleased with the food and service. Nina was a great server, and the gentleman serving coffee refills was attentive and fun. My Florentine scramble with pancake side was just what I wanted. Everything was well-cooked and seasoned. We'll be back. read more

Service,food and ambience perfect. Just the parking lot it's small. But can park by the street

Maybe the best blueberry pancakes I've ever had lots of locals and great hospitality, too!

Great food, even better service. Very homey environment with fast service. They are not shy with the portions here. My boyfriend was stuck between breakfast burrito and the meat lover scramble, so the waitress combined the too for him. Loved how they were able to accommodate his cravings! Very cool. 10/10 recommend :) read more
