Honest place, great service. Hot honey biscuits with fried chicken is fantastic! Couldn't ask for more

Great small dinner, the outside of the cafe says Weiners diner and we were a little confused if it's the same place, it is. Food is great, feels like I was eating at home at my dad's so it was wonderful. The pancakes were great flavorful and tasty. The potato seasoning was delightful, different from anything I have tasted. Eggs and bacon were good. Loved this place would come eat again. read more

Highly recommend Saturday Morning Cafe (Werner's Diner)! From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The service was excellent from start to finish. I ordered the Shrimp & Grits which consisted of shrimp, bacon, tomato, garlic, butter, and Old Bay, served on a skillet sizzling hot. It was absolutely delicious! Every flavor blended together perfectly, the bacon was nice and crisp, and there was a generous amount of shrimp in every bite. My husband ordered the Saturday Morning Special, which came with two eggs, crispy bacon, perfectly seasoned home fries, and French toast topped with fresh strawberries. The home fries were cooked just right--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and seasoned perfectly. The French toast with fresh strawberries was the perfect finishing touch. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Great food, wonderful service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back whenever we visit Baltimore again! read more

The customer service was soooo nice!!! Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. I always love a good diner setting. I got tow orders of the Alabama loaded grits and it did not disappoint. The only thing I didn't like was the grits wasn't creamy enough. They kinda tasted if they was reheated. I would definitely get it again. read more

Food was amazing experience was even better. Love the family vibe also love that they are black owned.

First, the outside said "Werner's", 2nd, we walked in and were immediately greeted very rudely by a short older woman who said "there's tables in front of you if you want to wait go outside" so we of course left, as did the person in front of us and the one behind us. Disgusting. Grow up read more

Didn't give me what I ordered. Long wait time (40 minutes). Waitress was nice but focused on changing music before taking our check.

This spot was a great find! Casual and authentic southern breakfast flavors! We got the shrimp and grits which was delicious and arrived PIPING HOT! We also got the decadent honey butter biscuits and an egg white omlette. Everything came out quickly, was great sized portions, and was absolutely delicious! This is a definite spot to stop into for anyone visiting the area! read more

The food was good service was good. authentic food. Servers weren't 100% but it was ok

If you're ever downtown and craving a good breakfast, check out Saturday Morning Café, which recently relocated to the spot where Werner's used to be. We go there often on weekends, and it never disappoints! He always orders the pancakes and swears by them--no powdered sugar, no syrup--just as they come. And he's right; I've tried them, and they're delicious. As for me, I love the Baltimore Skillet. The portions are generous, and I always end up with leftovers. The ambiance is upbeat, with the smell of fresh coffee in the air and music playing in the background. You can hear people laughing and enjoying their meals, which gives the place such a friendly, welcoming energy. It's the kind of spot that makes you want to linger a little longer and soak it all in. The customer service is excellent--everyone checks in to make sure you have what you need and is happy to help. You might have a short wait, but that's only because the food is worth it. Definitely stop by and give them a try! read more

Definitely worth the hype on instagram that brought me to the place. Very hospitable staff that makes you feel like you're dining with friends of the family. The food came out piping hot and fresh. The salmon shrimp and grits was sizzling and super delicious. It has a home in the wall ambiance but the cuisine is anything but. You will not be disappointed. read more

Had the best breakfast of my life! The diner itself is cute and a fun diner feel. What made it stand out was the Sweet Baby Biscuits! I have never had a dish so perfect! I'm stuffed myself beyond what I should have because it tasted so freaking good! My server smiled when I ordered it because she knew it would change my life! Highly recommend! read more

After glancing over the menu last night, we decided to give this spot a try. From the moment we walked in, the host was very welcoming--we even chatted a little college football on the way to our table. The food did not disappoint. I had the Baltimore Skillet, which was fantastic in both preparation and taste, and my boys ordered the Saturday morning special, which they really enjoyed as well. Overall, a great experience, and we'll likely be back before our time in Baltimore is up. read more

Saturday Morning Cafe - Fish and Grits - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I ordered my meal through DoorDash and when I received it, it was fairly warm. I ordered the pancake platter with hash browns and bacon with an extra side of bacon. Honestly, I was disappointed with my meal. The hash browns had a weird aftertaste but they weren't even seasoned at all. Very bland with an oily, burnt aftertaste. The pancakes had the same burnt aftertaste. It's like they were both cooked on the same griddle using the same burnt oil. I love bacon like the next person but it was sooooo salty. And I like salty bacon but this was way too salty. When I get bacon and grits I always mix them. Which helped take away from all the salt on the bacon. The grits were surprisingly seasoned and I actually enjoyed the bacon with grits. Overall, I would not order this meal from here again. Maybe just the grits with bacon. Im definitely open to trying other things though since I heard some good things about the place. read more

They had good food while they were open. They did run out of items a lot. The bottomless mimosas were discontinued because they never had champagne. The servers weren't the friendliest all the time. read more

Who doesn't like classic diner bites and bottomless drinks? Recently stopped in to indulge in a burger and their bottomless sips offer. For 20 bucks you can choose from maitais, margaritas and lemon drops. I chose lemon drops! To my surprise you could get flavors. Of course I went with strawberry. Deliciously boozy, the bottomless drinks are available to diners who purchase for 2 hrs. Don't sleep on this thinking the drinks are watered down, they are not! While here I decided to nosh on their classic burger with cheese and bacon. The burger was perfectly cooked and juicy. Bonus on the burger, the fried onions. I thought it would come with standard fried onions but, no...the fried onions were onion ring style. Hmm. Hmm. Sorry! No pics of the burger because my stomach was more important. Lol! Definitely stopping in again! *fun fact: Werner's is a popular place for film and television. It's been on such shows as The Wire and House of Cards. SYOY! read more

Saturday Morning Cafe - Unlimited lemon drops...strawberry flavor - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

My husband and I decided to visit Werner's Diner and Pub, one of Baltimore's well-known spots, after seeing it on Instagram. The aesthetics definitely gave off classic diner vibes. We ordered the French toast platter with turkey bacon and home fries, crab cake egg rolls, and chicken & waffles. The French toast was top tier--the buttery brioche bread was delicious. The home fries were seasoned well too. However, the chicken & waffles were our least favorite. The chicken lacked flavor, and the waffle tasted more like dough than a true waffle. The crab cake egg rolls could have also used more seasoning. We enjoyed $5 mimosas, and if we had arrived earlier, we would've tried the unlimited lemon drops or margaritas for 2 hours. Overall, I would dine here again and explore their dinner options next time. read more

Too salty. Very disappointing for both of us. The coffee was old too. Bad taste in our mouths

Werner's is a low key spot in the heart of downtown. I love how it is a true diner. The vibe is really cute and I love the all day breakfast/brunch option. We came for the happy hour but be warned that parking and traffic was a doozy. I had a smash burger and quick drink. The burger was tasty. It could have had more sauce but they gave me some on the side no problem. Overall, it was cool. I wouldn't not go back but it wasn't anything to write home about. read more

So this is not my idea of a smash burger as I am used to them being literally smashed these burgers were thick but still juicy so I got over it . The service is very questionable sometimes you get an attentive server and sometimes they completely ignore you . I don't think it's worth gambling that just to get food read more

Saturday Morning Cafe - "Smash burger" French Fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

We arrived around 7:50 AM on a Saturday because Google said they opened at 7:30. They had their lights off and chairs up and when we peeked inside, the kitchen staff said they were not open until 8 AM. We sat at their outside tables to wait, and watched as the servers trickled in around 8:10-8:30 AM. But, when we got a server, she was GREAT. She took our order without a notepad and gave us phenomenal service. The food was good, but not particularly memorable. I shared a standard egg plate with one of my kids, and she refused to eat the eggs because they had sprinkled parsley on them. The bacon was crispy and delicious. It was nice to sit outside under the umbrellas! read more

We had great breakfast there and it was wonderful place. Nestled in a cozy corner, this charming little spot serves up some of the best breakfast dishes. From the moment I sat down, the friendly staff made me feel like family. I had the Seafood benedict, and it was delicious. The salmon was perfectly smoked, the eggs were just the right level of runny, and the hollandaise sauce was smooth and buttery. The chicken and waffle was really great. The coffee was spot on, too. They offer a variety of blends, so there's something for everyone, whether you like a bold espresso or a creamy cappuccino. read more

Ambiance - hot mess inside Food - eggs Benedict came out without meat The French toast was supposed to have fresh fruit and it was served with nothing. Waited for ketchup syrup and the meat to come. No napkins and served with plastic dishes. Service was really terrible. Took an hour to get our food. Unfortunate as we were wanted to support this business. read more

Saturday Morning Cafe - Omelet and potatoes. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

So my next adventure lead me to Werner's cause I had been told countless times it has one of the best Rueben's in Baltimore. Parking was surprising good giving how midday downtown can be. The place has an amazing rich history cause most of the famous cop shows that were filmed in Baltimore have used this place. It's a self seating place so I didn't encounter any wait. Plus you can scan the barcode to order & pay so it no wait for the waiter. My food was out in a matter of minutes nice & hot. The Rueben was absolutely delicious easily one of the best ones I've ever had. This place has gained a new customer cause the sandwich was so good it makes me want to give a few more things on the menu a try. read more

They tried..., but that's it.... The hostess I would say, tried the most. We waited over 30 min to get a table. I heard them be dishonest with many customers, including us about the wait time. When we asked he said 10 min they are getting the table ready. It wasn't ready for quite some time. When we were finally sat it took a very long time for the waitress to serve us. She wasn't friendly, she was bland, had no smile & was there just to take an order. It looked like everyone was dirty lien they themselves were back in the kitchen throwing flour. I felt like I was at Waffle House or something. The food was nothing to write home about. The entire meal was bland. The grits were probably the best but the fish had no seasoning. With the abundance of good eats in Baltimore I can't say I'd be back. If the service was on point I would gave reconsidered this point. read more

I can't find the location on Yelp but I believe one is in Little Italy and the other is at the inner harbor. I was at the inner Harbor Location. It's was a bit interesting breakfast. The location seem overwhelmed since there's only two staff. My party ordered chicken and waffle (they didn't have chicken) but they got a refund. I got breakfast skillet which was quite good but I wish they'd give me more sausage. The potato was seasoned well and tasted great. I'll try their little Italy location next time! read more

Saturday Morning Cafe - Breakfast Skillet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

First of all, I had a lot of trouble finding the place, walked all around that little mall, asked three different people. They really need more signs on the waterfront so people walking up from there can find it. Not that I want them to get more business because their dining experience sucked. I guess because I was dining alone they put me in a corner table by the door and I felt rather neglected, it took a half and hour for my omelet to come out. I ordered the crab and shrimp omelet and they told me they didn't have any shrimp, and gave me a discount which was indeed nice. However, it took a good half hour, maybe more for my food to come out and when it did the omelet had hardly any crab meat in it. Also, all the food is served on disposable plastic plates, with disposable plastic utensils, the water comes in disposable plastic cups and the coffee comes in disposable cups as well This is all highly wasteful and bad for the planet and also doesn't enhance the dining experience. Icing on the cake was on the way out the door was locked for whatever reason and the guy had to unlock it for me and then it was spring loaded so hard that it swung back and smacked my wrist. No lasting injury, but it hurt and just made the experience that much more memorable from a bad standpoint. I'll not be back. read more

The food and service is horrid!!! It is nothing like the old Werner's and shouldn't be able to use the name. Last time I ate there about a month ago we were leaving and I stopped at family at the door from coming in and told them to please go somewhere else because they were about to have a horrible meal. read more

Saturday morning is a small little restaurant in Little Italy. It wasn't a super big establishment, but I enjoyed the food. I had a salmon BLT--the menu did say the salmon was teriyaki flavored but I didn't sense that. But it was still good. My friend has the breakfast burrito, but she said it lacked flavor. The service was not up to par--our server seemed as though she didn't want to be there. Never mentioned her name or offered water refills. We had to ask another server for a refill. She didn't move with a sense of urgency. read more

Saturday Morning Cafe - Salmon BLT - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I actually wasn't planning to eat here, but I was in the area and a little hungry. The interior seemed a bit dirty to me, but maybe I arrived just after a busy rush hour. I do believe the food is really good and the staff is friendly, though it might take some time to be seated, or perhaps that was just my experience. I would still come back to see if I have a different experience next time. I'd still recommend this spot, as it's affordable and offers good options on the menu. read more

Came here for breakfast on a Tuesday morning, and the place was empty at half-past-eight. Seemed a bit dark and disorganized. The staff were really nice, but several items were out on the menu, and they were almost out of milk for the coffee (the owner was apparently trying to organize a rush delivery of some more). Food was a bit inconsistent. The waffles the kids had were great, as were the omelette and hash browns. Crab Benedict, on the other hand was extremely salty and otherwise bland. And the eggs on the Benedicts were poached hard (maybe intentional, but not what I expect or prefer for that). On the other hand, a side of hard-boiled egg ordered for one of the kids was just perfect. Avocado toast was all right but soggy. I love good diner food and had heard good things about this one. Again, I want to reiterate that the staff were great. But management seems to not have it as together as they should. Possibly weekday breakfast isn't a focus, odd for a diner to be so empty at half-past-open on a weekday. read more

Y'all if you're in Baltimore, Saturday Morning Cafe is THE spot to check out. While visiting I ate here twice! Lol. The first time, I ordered the Baltimore Skillet, the second time I ordered the grits and shrimp. Both are really good and filling. The shrimp and grits are definitely my favorite. They're delivered to the table sizzling on a skillet! I've never had sizzling grits! This black owned, small business offers good service and everyone was very welcoming. The cafe isn't very big, but it's just enough space to accommodate its customers. Very homey feeling inside. I definitely want to eat here again. read more

I first heard of Saturday Morning Cafe a few weeks ago when I was in the area, however they were closed. In the mood for a decent breakfast on this fine Father's Day weekend, I decided to give them another shot & I'm glad I did. Let's get the hard part out of the way... The Bad: the service left a little to be desired. We had to ask for things like small plates, condiments, etc. I don't want to elaborate too much bc this isn't going to be a bad review, and my only reason for mentioning these minor details are bc if Saturday morning can tighten up, they can really be a staple in the community because... The Good: THE FOOD. I got the fish and grits and it was spectacular. Quite possibly the best fish & grits I've ordered out EVER. My Wife got the Chicken and Waffles & she was equally as thrilled. The biscuits & honey butter were really good too, but the flakiness of the biscuits and the powdered sugar makes a mess if you have a little one like my 17 mos old son, so the small details like napkins, plates, etc. would come in handy. Despite the minor hiccups, I'm giving Saturday Morning Cafe 5 stars bc the food was just that good & to top it off - it's black owned. I love everything about this establishment and will be back again and again. read more
