Put our name on the waitlist around 11am on a Sunday, and the wait was about 45 minutes. It remained pretty accurate and were seated once we checked in. Had a nice cozy booth for the 4 of us. Decided to go with a full bottle/carafe of mimosa for 3 of us, while my other friend enjoyed a bloody mary. I LOVED the MIGAS breakfast. Service was really friendly and fast and efficient. Overall great brunch while visiting Austin for the weekend. read more

Definitely diner vibes! Cozy and cute. The service is very good--attentive and accomodating waiters and staff. We had the chicken and waffles, pancakes, and baked egg. All were delicious however the portions were pretty small. The baked egg came with two small slices of sourdough--definitely needed more bread. The chicken and waffles came with a very small waffle and it probably would've been better if the waffle was bigger than the chicken. The pancakes were slightly undercooked with batter oozing out. Overall was good but could be better. read more

This one was a bit rough. We came in for breakfast. We orders biscuits and gravy and a few ala cart items including the slab bacon grits and the sausage. We were impressed how quickly the food came out but it was clear everything had been sitting out under a salamander. Food was underwhelming. I will say the staff was super friendly and cheerful and was the highlight of the visit read more

We love phoebes! We have came here multiple times and it never disappoints. Fried green tomatoes are a must everytime! This time I had the shrimp and grit, it was pretty good, could use less corn or no corn at all IMO. However flavor is great and has a kick to it as well. Shrimp were a great size and cooked just right! My significant other had the baked eggs which he has gotten before and thoroughly enjoyed it. Only thing we would change is the cook on the egg but it's unable to be adjusted- it comes over reallllyyy easy. I tried the double buzz per our server Izzy's suggestion, it was really good and the ice cube was made of coffee so it doesn't water down the drink which is awesome , because Who likes a watered down drink? Izzy was a great server and didn't miss a beat. Food came out quickly as well which was perfect. I love this location for its downtown hipster charm however parking is not the best. Decor is modern with a touch of tx charm. read more

I absolutely loved this place. Traveling on business and was really craving a healthy breakfast. I ordered the Beet Mash, which has an incredible hash cooked of mushroom, onion, beets, perfectly seasoned, that are topped with spicy guacamole and an egg of your choosing. I opted to add goat cheese and it was beyond splendid. Server recommended brisket, too, as an add on. Coffee was great. Service exactly what I want in a diner: friendly and fun to talk to. read more

One of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Was not expecting that. Fresh eggs, insane bread, insane bacons. 15/10 rating

We had such a great brunch experience here! First of all, it was a busy Texas home gameday so it was fairly crowded and there was a waitlist on Yelp. We joined the waitlist, and Noe the hostess was so kind and helpful throughout the process on a busy day! We were seated within 30 minutes of joining the waitlist. Once seated, I was reminded of what a gluten friendly place this was! The fried green tomatoes appetizer is phenomenal and fully GF! They have dedicated fryers and things are well marked on the menu. My favorite item here is easily the Crab Cake Benny - eggs Benedict on a crab cake rather than an English muffin. Everything about it is perfection! As the cherry on top, their crab cakes are gluten free! Our waitress, Izzy, was super friendly and helpful with our large group and had great recommendations on food and drink to order. This was a great reminder of the great quality and service at this local Austin staple - I can't wait to go back! read more

Servers are so nice and welcoming! I was a single diner in a Sat afternoon, about an hour before close and no one treated me like I shouldn't have been there....you sometimes can get some strange interactions as a single diner, esp on a weekend. Anywho, server was great as was the food. I had the Sat special omelette which was spinach, short rib, cheese, onion and poblano (?) pepper with ranchero sauce. Delicious! Asparagus was also delicious! Nice char and well seasoned. My minor negatives were that the Nitro cold brew was really small for the price and people mopping floors as I'm eating was a) nice to see things getting well cleaned, but d) made me feel a little rushed. I'll be back! read more

Our first time to Phoebe's, we were afraid the wait might be long , so we got on the waitlist. Unfortunately our time expired by the time we figured out parking. They were very kind and accommodating. As soon as we got there, we were seated right by the bar. The place was bright and fun. Super friendly server helped us with drinks and our order. There's lots to choose from. We had the brisket burrito and the badass bacon and eggs. Each was served with hash brown casserole and flavorful salsa. Everything was delicious. I am excited to one day go back and try something else. read more

Delicious and cute breakfast spot downtown. Had visitors for SXSW and brought them here for Sunday brunch. It was pretty busy so opted to sit at the bar without a wait. I immediately ordered the 04 platter because it had bbq brisket. Also got the fried chicken and biscuit and fried green tomatoes and cornbread. Order came out pretty fast. The platter had lots of variety of food including a fat piece of brisket that was juicy and tender, a tasty sausage with great snap, and ham which I honestly wasn't a big fan of. Also cake with eggs. The chicken biscuit was great and also ordered gravy to to go with it which was awesome. Thick and flavorful. Biscuit was perfect and not too dry and chicken was breaded perfectly. The fried green tomatoes were a nice accompaniment and thence cornbread was nice and fully and warm. All in all a great brunch experience! read more

Y'all, there was a wait Tuesday afternoon for lunch. This is the HOT spot. The vibes are great - friendly staff (shoutout to Ryan & Kira) and the food is delicious. I got the Smoked Beet Hash, side of Buttermilk biscuit (2 pieces per order) and a juice - got the Beet Orange and Blood Orange freshly squeezed juices! The biscuits are also made in house. Everything is yummy. I'm like drooling. I'm grateful there's a BBQ dish for a vegetarian! And, you can change the egg to be cooked any style. The decor is fun, they've got a variety of seating options from booth to diner counter to individual tables. It's a spot fit for both groups and solo parties alike. read more

Super busy diner/brunch spot on the weekend. We waited 40 mins on a Saturday morning at around 11am, a hack is to put your name on the Yelp waitlist before you actually get there to get ahead. I really like Phoebe's - their food is wholesome and has a variety of ingredients. They are not a "healthy" brunch place by anymeans but there are a less heavy options if youre looking for them. You can also do sides of eggs/avocadoes/etc. if what you want is not on the menu. I had the chorizo hash both time (very flavorful and can be spicy), bf loves the biscuits and the banana foster french toast was tasty but intensely decadent. Overall a great place to eat, and you might walk out with a food coma lol read more

Good place, got there before the crowd. The parking was horrible and a bit confusing especially if you're not used to Austin. The service was ok. The waitress was nice but she only came by like once to check on us and I didn't even get to get a refill. The place inside is pretty nice. The food was good. Not super amazing but good for me to eat, get full and not feel gross afterwards. read more

Trendy and light atmosphere, TVs for news and such if you want, but seating not focusing on that is great for a chatty brunch! Food quality is excellent and portions are decent (it seems like you could definitely get 2-3 dishes to share for a table of 4. Especially if you get the hot cornbread appetizer!) Hot cornbread appetizer comes with three topping options: Apple butter, some kind of pepper jam (my fav) and a whipped butter (delicious with either other as a creamy combo). Definitely not your dry, cold, crumbly cornbread you may get elsewhere. I was surprised to see something other than cold brew coffee as a "Nitro-" something! Nitro-chata (horchata) was smooth and delicious. Migas - not what I expected (no tortilla strips in the eggs) but I was pleasantly surprised with the tortilla/masa "hush puppies) which added that much needed earthy flavor and chewy/crunchy texture to the soft scrambled egg, hatch chile, onion mixture. Brisket Benedict - what a portion! Tasty, but a lot unless you're starving (and maybe you're close, no judgement here if you finish it all!). The hash brown casserole is a MUST HAVE. Server was attentive and friendly. It was pretty empty at 9AM on a Monday morning. Parking can be iffy, so walking (if possible) or taking a ride share/cab is probably wise. All around good experience. read more

Have been across the street from the downtown location for a week and am so impressed with the service, turnaround time and the taste of the food. I can walk in at the lunch rush and order, eat and be out of there in 40 minutes. I've tried the fried chicken sandwich and the fried shrimp poboy and both were top of the charts! Love the batter on the fried chicken. I'm from the south and they know how to make fried chicken. Their tots are always crunchy too! Had the fried shrimp poboy today and loved that it was on Gambino's bread - which is essential to a delicious poboy! Being from Louisiana, I very much loved their version. They have pickled cucumbers in there that is a nice crunch too. And definitely add the jalapeño remoulade -gives it a nice punch! The decor is gorgeous and tastefully done too! read more

This was our second visit to Phoebe's. This morning I had the relleno breakfast. OMG...it was so delicious. The relleno had a crispy, crunchy shell that was stuffed with perfectly scrambled eggs and a delicious tomato based sauce on the side. My husband ordered everything a la cart and ate every bite. The coffee was strong, black and hot. The server was attentive and friendly. Such a cute place. Yes, we will be back. read more

Holy smokes this place is tasty. I had friends in town and this had good reviews so we decided to try it and it did not disappoint. You can easily make reservations here. We also didn't wait very long when we checked in early. They do have a good amount of seating and seating out side. The outside seating has heaters and it was actually warm. The wait staff was very friendly and our server was great! She was very informative of the menu, gave suggestions, and helped us decide. We had mimosas and all tried something different for food plus an order of cornbread to start. Three options for the cornbread, sweet and salty butter, apple butter, and salsa. I got the burrito and wow was it good.! It was quite large and enough for two meals for me and it was very flavorful. The potato mash that comes with it was super good too, with onions and cheese, etc wow! Found my new fav brunch spot! read more

Food was very good! Found this place on Yelp and I'm glad that I did. I ordered the chicken biscuit with grits instead of potatoes and a side of slab bacon. The breading on the chicken was so flavorful! The biscuit had like a bacon flavor, it was good. The bacon was thick and good. Our server was very good and attentive. I enjoyed my experience and I'm sure you will as well. If your looking for a good brunch place, this is it. read more

So, I had just arrived in Austin, and while at the airport I searched Yelp for best lunch and Phoebe's came up. The first location I went to had over 1k reviews, but parking was bad and it was next to a gas station (not that I'm opposed to the location, parking was just bad), so I was directed to this downtown location. Parking here was also a challenge, but I lucked up and found a spot on the next block. I was greeted and seated right away, I could smell the deliciousness from outside. Although their special, the Crab Omelette sounded amazing, I'm from Maryland and am suspicious of crab if I'm not near the water. I ordered the most amazing Bananas Foster French Toast and a side of bacon (I had to try it). Omg, the French Toast is actually banana nut bread, prepared like French Toast, so absolutely surprising and delicious. The bacon was like eating a piece of ham and it was absolutely amazing. I also had a yummy cocktail. The staff was great, friendly and they were helpful with suggestions. Halle was amazing!! The variety on the menu was perfect. read more

Came here for lunch for lunch yesterday with my boyfriend and had a really nice time. Our server was super sweet and gave great recommendations. We got the crispy brussel sprouts which were very good and had came with some aioli sauce which I loved. I got the brisket burrito and enjoyed it but wasn't crazy about it. It had a lottt of cheese and I wasn't sure how I felt about the hash brown casserole being in there. I didn't try my boyfriend's burger but it looked great and I enjoyed some of the tater tots. Overall, I would definitely come back and next time I might try the French toast because it looked actually insane. read more

Went on a Tuesday morning so it was nice and easy to get in. We were sat right away and drink orders taken right away. Few minutes later we received our drinks and ordered food. Within 5-6 minutes our food arrived! I ordered the Badass Bacon & Eggs! I've never had Slab bacon but it was great! Thick and cooked perfectly, eggs were just what I asked for, and wheat toast was toasty. Plate was also Served with hash brown casserole and smoked tomato salsa! My coworker got a bunch of ala-cart items and he tore them up! Nice little diner feel, wonderful staff, and great food! Would definitely go back if in the area! Make sure not to park in front, you'll get a ticket or towed as the parking is for the government building next door! read more

I found it by coincidence as we were searching for a homestyle breakfast spot and it did not disappoint. I ended up finding the yelp page and added myself to the waitlist which worked perfectly for us. Upon arrival, we were told that it would be about a 5-10min wait even though we were still 8th or 9th in line. After we were seated, we ordered the Fried Green Tomatoes! Truly a must! Guava Lemonade and Blood Orange Juice were ordered in the meanwhile. We ordered 3 separate items: One was a skillet type dish Chile Relleno (it's a HUGE portion) - i added the chorizo and it added more flavor. Fried Chicken & Grits All 3 items were definitely well served for their price points and were delicious. I'm curious to try out additional items from their menu, so I will definitely return! read more

Absolutely recommend Phoebe's!! We came on a Saturday , waited like 15 minutes. It was live though for sure, consistent traffic which is great news. Ordered the Double Buzz and 2 of these will get you right. The coffee ice cube is genius of course so your drink doesn't get watered down. The Fried Chicken biscuit was the BEST thing on the table & you HAAVE to get a side of the sage sausage gravy it was DELICIOUS! So much flavor and a gravy done RIGHT! I really enjoyed the buttermilk flapjacks & the badass bacon + eggs was perfect! The thick cut bacon that's how you bacon ! Bananas fosters French toast was tasty and table shared it. It was sweet but really good Deep fried French toast was also good , really fluffy but I preferred the pancakes. Definitely a must have for a breakfast spot read more

Service was horrible and food was not good at all. VERY OVERPRICED!!! Save yourself the money

The service was fast & friendly! Waitress was the best! ( Akia) probably spelled wrong. The biggest meat omelette we've ever had!

I came in a large group. The staff was incredibly attentive, patient, and accommodating. Our server was great and did a good job handling our tables. This restaurant isn't ideal for a large group as it is a bit of a smaller restaurant but the staff was gracious enough to make it work. The service was 5 star. My food... 3 stars. I ordered the brisket benny. The brisket was fatty and not very flavorful. The hashbrown casserole was very okay. Overall, the food was average but the service was phenomenal. Some of the people at my table enjoyed their food so maybe I ordered the wrong thing. I'd be open to trying Phoebe's again to see if I like the next dish better. read more

While in Austin we have to be cautious where we eat. My husband is allergic to gluten. A lot of places have limited options if any. We were pleasantly surprised at their selection of gluten free items that our server (Janna) ( I apologize if misspelled!) pointed out to us. We had the best service and the food was awesome! Phoebe's has a great vibe and atmosphere. Our compliments to the staff, especially Janna, you guys made our morning! We felt welcomed and well feed as we left. Thank you! Warren and Larry read more

The atmosphere was nice, just note that there is not a dedicated parking lot for this location. We arrived at noon on a Friday and were able to be seated right away. My husband enjoyed the cold brew. The food was absolutely amazing!!! The chicken was well seasoned and juicy. The biscuit was the perfect consistency. The pepper jam and sausage gravy were perfect additions. The French toast was much bigger than in the pictures so I made the mistake of ordering a side egg and bacon. Loved it!!! This place is definitely being put on our list of breakfast spots in Austin. read more

We are passing through town and I always use Yelp to find the best spots to eat. This spot came up as locally owned and rated very high so we decided to give it a try. This particular location does not have parking which is a bummer so 2 to 3 dollars for a couple of hours of parking is not bad. Also upon entry, the host was a bit smug. She wasn't terribly friendly, but she sat us right away. The waiter, on the other hand was as friendly as they come! I forgot his name but he made great recommendations and our food came out within 10 minutes. I originally ordered the shrimp and grits but failed to see that it contained chorizo so I had to send it back and settle for the fried chicken and grits. Both dishes that we had, below were amazing! My six-year-old devoured everything. No crumbs left behind! read more
