Cute spot! Great music! Ideal for brunch with group of 4-6. Is smaller shop so realistically do not see it easily fitting a group of 10. Would recommend visit within hour or so of opening. Staff helpful and great at recommending dishes to try. Staff is younger being in a college town. Can you name all the different seasoning container arrayed through the space? Almost provide all the animals in a farm or wild forest if you spot them all. Be sure to ask about any fresh or daily sweets. Delicious end to a great meal! read more

Sleepy Opossum was a great stop for a simple but really satisfying breakfast. I ordered the basic breakfast with fried eggs, and they had a subtle hint of Cajun seasoning that gave them a really nice flavor. It was a small touch but made the dish stand out. The side salad was a fresh spring mix with a light vinaigrette that paired nicely with the meal. Service was friendly, attentive and made you feel at home. Definitely a cozy spot to start the day. read more

10 out of 10! I'm a foodie from FL visiting family here. First- love the decor! It reminds me of an eclectic eatery in Nashville. Gives off the home town but sophisticated kind of vibe! Each table comes with its matching ceramic salt & pepper shaker! Super cute. You also get a linen napkin and actual silverware. Please note though, you will only need to keep your parties to 4 max as there is limited space. Their website says 6, but that would be a tight squeeze. There is Opossums decor all over. Super cute theme! Secondly, the food was amazing. They do have a seasonal menu so check out their instagram for the updated one. We had the Breakky Sandwy & the smothered hash brown bowl. YUM! The biscuit was hand made, super fluffy, with seeds on top and tasted oh-so-good. The bacon wasn't overly salted and the cheese wasn't overpowering; the perfect blend along with the jam! The hashbrown bowl was also a delight! Everything you could want. The portion sizes were perfect for the price! Last, the service was top notch. We were seated and given waters immediately. Checked on regularly and at appropriate times. Overall- we will be coming back and recommending to our family to come check it out! read more

YUM AND YUM. We arrived right after opening and were seated immediately (but it filled up quick on a Sunday morning!!). Started off with the orange zest caramel latte and it was great: noticeable orange flavor, not overwhelmingly sweet, and served hot in a big campfire-style mug. We split the "super basic brekky" (biscuit, 2 fried eggs, 2 sausage patties, and a side of dressed greens) and the "bean gurlie" hashbrown bowl (hashbrown casserole, fried eggs, beans, onions, peppers, cheese. Also came with a side of dressed greens). Portions were filling and everything was DELICIOUS. The biscuit was our favorite part of the meal (tall, fluffy, amazing), but the sausage and the hashbrown casserole were close contenders. I'm not a huge greens person at breakfast, but whatever they dress them with was super tasty and I loved it. Decor gives thrifted grandma vibes in the most fun and curated way. Staff was very efficient and kind. We'll absolutely be back! read more

Sleepy Opossum Cafe - super basic brekky and bean gurlie bowl - Bakeries Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

Great little breakfast/brunch spot. Very "homey" interior with a comfortable feel to the room. I was getting takeout, so I didn't really get to experience the service much Food was great, I had a breakfast burrito and it was jam packed with eggs, sausage, and cheese. Good food, would definitely go back read more

I've been here a few time and the food combinations are slightly different for me. When it comes to breakfast I'm very basic, eggs, hashbrowns, bacon or sausage and cheese, so I found them to be slightly intimidating. I did branch out and try several different meals. I did enjoy them. The food is good. Sometimes the biscuits are a little hard, but that's not a deal breaker for me. You want to get there early because there is usually a wait. I wouldn't recommend large groups either. The staff is very polite and everything is made fresh read more

Sleepy Opossum serves, hands down, the best restaurant breakfast I've ever had. Everything on the plate tasted fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and full of flavor--the kind of food that makes you slow down and really enjoy the moment. Some have mentioned the service can be on the leisurely side, but to me, that's part of what makes this place special. It's not a rushed, grab-and-go kind of spot--it's a place where you can actually relax, sip your coffee, and soak up the cozy atmosphere while waiting for food that's clearly made with care. If you're looking for the perfect combination of incredible breakfast and a laid-back vibe, Sleepy Opossum is it. I'll definitely be back. read more

Wow, where do I begin with what I can only describe was a perfect breakfast and great way to kick off a fun day of exploring Springfield... All of the food was totally on point. The service was super friendly. I love the aesthetic, including the decor, the mismatch tables, the bright interior, the wallpaper in the hallway, the art on the walls, and even the adorable Salt and pepper shakers. Can I come back ASAP? If this restaurant was in the town I lived I would come here all the time. read more

Sleepy Opossum Cafe - Was so good! - Bakeries Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

Very cute cafe. Love the tables and decor, there was a lot of thought put into this cafe. The food tastes wonderful, some of the best biscuits and gravy I have had. My husband had the burrito and when he finally came up for air from eating he managed to say, "this is wonderful" and quickly resumed. The service was a little slow, however this restaurant has only been open for a week. We will definitely be coming back. Side note, the lattes are a must. read more

Cute as can be. I love the concept. The food, however, was horrid. Pesto had too much garlic and rendered it inedible. Everything was overcooked and dried out. The culinary crime as the over easy eggs. The yolks were broken and hard! Maybe it was a bad day. It was really busy. read more

Found this place on Google but had a hard time figuring out where it really was. It is in the same building as The Royal music hall. I was not impressed with the service or the food, but I did like the atmosphere. You walk up to the counter to order. They were out of quiche so I ordered Ala carte. When our food came out we had to remind the waitress that we hadn't received our coffees. Our food was decent but seemed to take a long time to get it. I liked being able to sit out on the patio and enjoying the nice weather. read more

I am shocked at the behavior of our waitress. The food was fine. But when my husband went to pay the bill at the cash register, he had to ASK for his change. You don't make customers do that, they should have given him all his money without prompt, and then he would tip if he felt like it. But when he asked for his change, they asked how much he wanted back, as if they were expecting to keep some of it as a tip. When he said he wanted all of his change back, they firmly grasped it making it awkward and hard for my husband to pull the cash from her hand. He's a kind person and ended up leaving her a tip on the table even after that exchange, but we were appalled by that behavior. If that's how they treat polite customers, I'd rather not give them business. We did nothing to be treated that way. Go somewhere with respectful staff instead. read more

Dani's Flour Pot Bakery is one of the best breakfast and brunch places in Springfield, MO. Dani is super passionate about good food, sourcing local ingredients, and providing seasonal items. She serves a variety of breakfast items like breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, quiche, biscuits and gravy, hashbrown casserole, as well as homemade pop tarts, cookies, pastries, cinnamon rolls, cakes and pie. My go-to's at Dani's are the quiche (hashbrown crust instead of pie crust) made with eggs, meat, and produce from local farms, and the Hummingbird Cake (banana cake, buttercream frosting, and bruleed brown sugar topping). Nestled inside The Royal, Dani's Flour Pot Bakery is super adorable with a touch of vintage vibes from Dani. Whenever you go, you'll likely see Dani bustling around the kitchen and her super friendly staff. Make sure you say "Hi" and get to know them. They're all really great! read more

Place was closed on the day we went, all sites including their facebook page showed their hours, but it was all closed up when we arrived. 2 other couples showed up while we were there saying they thought it was open too. No true review available. All I would say is call ahead to verify they're open if you decide to go. read more

This was their 1st day open at this location so a few kinks. The food was absolutely on point. Made from scratch biscuits and gravy. Hubby had something called a purrito I took a bite and it was fantastic. Will definitely be back. read more

The kitchen closes 30m prior to close time on the listing just so you know! We came for breakfast but it was 1235. Online it states they close at 1, but with closing the kitchen 30 min before closing they do not serve anything after 1230. The place is absolutely beautiful and we will be back much earlier next time! read more

Just a hole in the wall. Little round tables, no actual table for a party of four. I ordered the potato casserole and sausage gravy and biscuit. The biscuit was a burnt on the bottom, sausage gravy was OK. Potato casserole was cold and had a taste I could not recall. My wife had a breakfast taco, the menu said it came with greens. In this part of the world I have never heard any one eating the green top of carrots. You had to get your own water out of a glass crock, in little plastic glasses, that might of held 6 ounces and no ice. I gave it one star, there was no lower rating. read more
