Thank your yelpers couldn't have found this gem in a corner of a shopping plaza without you guys. This place is close to my house. I got the recommended crab cake Benedict (crab cake w/ egg placed between the English muffin) simply delicious. I ordered coconut macadamia French toast which was sweet but delicious. The coffee was Colombian roast, it was brewed to perfection Only thing that's a problem: The seating arrangement is packed, it's a very small location and it is very packed, felt a little rushed and service could have been better. read more

It was a pretty good experience, a table and booth still open and was served pretty quick considering one gal doing the work and several to wait on. Food good, place clean and everything went pretty well. Convenient location on my way home from appt. and errands. I'd consider returning. read more

0 stars if available. Waited for 10mins to be seated or speak with staff. No one greeted me or looked in my direction.

This place is awesome. The Banana Macadamia Nut French Toast is extremely delicious. Came the 2nd time and tried the Almond Encrusted French Toast which was just as delicious. Go early on Sundays, before 10am, they tend to get pretty busy. read more

The Breakfast Shack - Blueberry Almond FT, Eggs Florentine and Coconut Macadamia Nuts FT. This is breakfast heaven. - Diners Near Me - Boynton Beach, Florida

Small casual place that's friendly with great prices. Some great pancake, omelet, and french toast mixtures. I always try and get the specials on the board whic are a great value. So far have had the apple cinnamon pancakes and raisin cinnamon stuffed (cream cheese) french toast. Service isn't always perfect, but they are quick to oblige and make up for it :-) read more

Usually the small places to eat are my fav to have breakfast at. The food was very bland. The home fries tasted like air and looked a little dehydrated. My boyfriend's steak with his steak and eggs looked totally unappealing. He said it was terrible and was quite possibly top round. We won't be going back. read more

Horrible service Sat at the bar the bus boy brought me a water and a menu right away server never even acknowledge me ask me if I was ready to order , after 15 minutes of sitting at the bar right in front of them I left.If I could post zero stars I would I never even got to eat read more

Did not have the opportunity to taste the food because there was no hostess or waiter. Self-seated and no one came over.

The food was good. My husband really enjoyed the biscuits n gravy. I enjoyed the French toast but had a slight after taste of garlic. read more

Breakfast shack is located in a small strip mall on Boynton Beach Boulevard just west of Congress! I tried them at the advice of my fellow yelpers and as always yelpers do not disappoint. My favorite item of them all so far is the macadamia coconut crusted french toast. I don't typically even like french toast but I LOVE theirs! It is so full fresh coconut, lots of flavor and yummy!!! I order this in the 2/2/2 which is two eggs, two pancakes or french toast, and two pieces of bacon ( which again I chose the pepper bacon) for $8.49. Breakfast, has become my new favorite meal! Often times I will drink water but if you would like to add coffee it is $2.49 additionally. It is a very simple, small, clean establishment. In order to bring it to five stars, though, I would like to see improvement in service. While they are friendly, they don't usually check on you or your meal and oftentimes are chatting and/ or eating while someone is waiting on coffee refills. Tweak that and I will be happy to tweak my review to five stars! Fabulous find and great good as everything is cooked to order at your request :-) read more

With mixed reviews we were hesitant to go, but decided to see for ourselves. Huge portions, yummy, and friendly. Despite being short staffed, the Friday morning wait staff did their best keeping up with the demands for coffee. We sat at a table because most of the seat cushions at the booths are torn up and look univiting. We'd go back for sure. read more

Great food and service. Your chefs are to be commended. Your serving staff pleasant and attentive. Can't wait to go back. Thanks john

This is a fairly small place but too big for just one server. The poor woman was literally running around and still couldn't keep up. I asked for water twice and never got it the whole time we were there. Then, there's the food. Our coffee was cold. Hubs had corned beef hash and I had eggs Benedict. The eggs in both dishes were over cooked. The Hollandaise sauce was thick and tasteless. There's too many other good breakfast places in the area. Go somewhere else. read more

This is a clean, pleasant , friendly, place to have a great breakfast. If you want quality at a fair price, this is your place. Your coffee will never go empty with constant refills during your visit. The eggs were cooked to order, thick bacon crisp no grease, and home fries fresh cut. This is located in a strip center but let that keep you away... the inside is clean, warm, & comfortable. read more

Try it out there tall stack of pancakes today. Everything looks good here. Full House looks like everyone's enjoying themselves Probably need to get here early because there's always a crowd for breakfast. read more

This is a tiny place with 7 booths, a counter that seats 4 and 2 long tables that seat 8 as long as you don't mind sitting with other people. Waste of chairs since two seats in the middle of each table were empty and there was a wait. I got the sampler, bacon was under done and sausage was a little burnt but good. Eggs medium were perfect. Service is very slow and took 30 minutes to get our meals. $25 for the meal and $7.50 of that was 2 ice teas and a coffee for $2.50 each, which was a bit much and surprise since drinks aren't listed on the menu, so was kind of a gotcha moment for us. Overall was just OK but would have been a good value without the drink prices. We keep trying different places for breakfast but nobody beats The Diner on gateway which has great food at reasonable price coupled with fast service. Not sure if we would go back, but may give it another try. read more

Swung by for breakfast on a trip back down South. Tucked away in the corner of a shopping center it is still pretty easy to locate from the main street if you know the address. The inside has kind of an unpretentious Hawaiian Luau vibe. The menu itself boasts a couple of slightly unique offerings, with far better quality than your average IHOP. I went with an almond french toast, which came out golden brown and completely coated with crunchy nuts. My dining partner was also kind enough to share his coconut macadamia french toast which I think I actually liked even better. The combination of textures was incredibly tasty. The biggest negative of the meal was probably the fake maple syrup. Otherwise though it was definitely a solid choice for a morning meal. I wouldn't go out of my way to seek out their breakfast, but it is probably one of the better options in the area. read more

I think I may have come to a different Breakfast Shack than some of the previous reviewers...I'm getting teased relentlessly about how I should never pick the breakfast spot again because of how terrible this place was. My first thought when walking in here was "Cute little place!" as we waited for them to wipe down the booth we would be sitting in. Drink order: Orange juice and iced tea, coffee and water please. OJ and coffee appeared later, no sign of iced tea or water. Actually, this is pretty much how it went with the water. And everything else: "Everything good?" "Sure, but could I get that glass of water, please?" "Yes, coming right up." ....... ....... ....... .................................... "Are you ready to order?" "Yes, home fries, fruit, and the vegetarian sausage, please." "Breakfast sandwich with eggs over medium and hash browns, please. Oh and the water when you can." "OK!" ....... ....... "Were those eggs for the sandwich scrambled? I can't understand my own handwriting." "No, over medium, please. And can I please get a glass of water?" "Sure!" ....... ....... ....... .................................... "More coffee for you?" "Sure, thank you! Could I also please get a glass of water?" "No problem" *pours the slightest little drip of coffee into his mug* ....... ....... ....... .................................... "Here's your food!" "Thank you, can you please grab me a glass of water when you get a chance?" "Yep" ....... *munching on frozen and barely cooked hash brown patty* ....... *eating saltiest home fries ever* ....... "Soooo...I guess no water for you, huh? Here, I just remembered I have some in my purse." "Thanks, honey" ....... "How can you eat those home fries? They're like covered in salt!!!" ....... *munching on frozen veg sausage and the two pieces of strawberry atop a few pieces of canteloupe* ....... etc.................................... After that, I decided to try and ask them for water when they brought the check and it FINALLY came!!! All in all, the place is cute but the food and service were definitely sub par. I can't say that there is anything that would bring me back. read more

This place is perfect spot to have breakfast! The service was outstanding, clean and the food was off the charts! I love the pumpkin pancakes and crave it ever week! Highly recommend the breakfast shack! Thank you read more

Really good cheap breakfast. 5 eggs - $2.98. When I'm in low carb mode, I hit this place a lot. Service is quick and on point. the food comes out hot and quick. Perhaps the most aptly named place around - it's like a shack. Low on ambiance but high on good food. A hit with the locals...I see a lot of the same "regulars" here every time I go. Hungry and in the neighborhood - stop in...you won't be sorry. read more

I wish I had read the negative reviews before I went! There were so many good reviews featured I had high hopes. Terrible. So generic. Wish I didn't eat it. Thought I would be sick after. Long wait, not friendly. Never asked if we had everything we needed or did everything come out right. Just rushed out, dropped off food and left before we could ask if they had real maple syrup. Came back when we were done to drop off check and she barely made the statement "everything was good" a question. It seemed to me she was telling us it was good. It was not. read more

Nice surprise. Don't understand why it is not busier. Clean. Quiet. Full menu. Reasonable prices. Pleasant, good service.

I was searching Yelp for a spot in Boynton to have breakfast and up popped The Breakfast Shack. All the reviews stated great food so I had to give it a try. We walked in and were seated in a booth. The inside is pretty small and the servers are running around like chickens with their heads cut off. For all the running around they do, the service is really slow. But the food more than made up for it. I had the International omelette with home fries and rye toast, my hubby had the biscuits and gravy meal and my stepdad had the volcano omelette. We also had to try their buttermilk pancakes so we ordered a short stack. Let me tell you something about this tiny place in a stripmall....WOW. Everything was the perfect temperature, tasted awesome and the price can't be beat. The pancakes were light and fluffy and I wish I would have ordered the tall stack. I will revisit this hidden masterpiece in the near future for sure! read more

The perception: great reputation, waiting line outside and a packed restaurant. The reality: Costco frozen value pack hash browns, pancake mix from a box, a $2.99 glass of orange juice, again Costco croissants and a very attentive waitress that offered to change out our burnt dried out bacon ringlets. read more

It's a very small establishment but the food is worth the wait. Make sure you don't need to eat and run. They only had one cook but again food was great!!! read more

The only reason this place gets a star is because prices are bearable. Told the wait was a half hour for our group of four (fine and reasonable), turned out to be an hour, and there were multiple groups who got there after us and were seated before. Told the waitress/hostess (seriously, they had two non-cook staff for the entire place, which contributed to the awful wait), and simply said there's nothing she could do. Fine. We waited it out and eventually got seated. Strike 1. I ordered the Old Western omelette with hash browns. Hash browns were the frozen, fried kind that take 2 minutes cook. They sucked. I also could have made a better omelette myself...it was uninspiring. I ordered wheat bread with my omelette, and when it came out I was greeted with the waitress slamming my plate down and exclaiming, "We're out of wheat, so you get white" and promptly walked away. Not even asking if it was alright my order was incorrect. Strike 2. The waitress herself really took the cake. Totally rude, inconsiderate, and it took 20 minutes to get a refill on my water when the place was half full. Zero positive interaction with her. Strike 3. Go to a Denny's. Food is of the same quality with better staff that won't have you wait an hour without explanation. read more

I want to give them kudos because they carry vegetarian selections. They have veggie sausage on the menu. The food was good. They have a typical breakfast menu. We had to wait a long time for our food. The wait was apparently because a large order made it in front of ours. So we saw other people seated around the same time getting their food way before us. The waitress apologized and acknowledged it. Another thing I was not to crazy about was that we sat at the bar so actually saw what happens with the toast. The toast sits by the window where the food comes out and the waitresses pick through the slices. Then they serve food and get more. I just think its weird the toast is touched by so many people without gloves because while waiting they are touching other things such as their clothing. read more

Two words.... "The Volcano" with the home fries and rye toast. Found myself here on a Saturday morning hungry as hell. The place was packed but managed to find a seat at the counter. Service was fast and the menu varied. The volcano was a taste sensation, spicy smoked bacon plus ham and sausage then smothered in cheese... amazing. Great homemade home fries and the rye toast was freshly baked and sliced thick. Next time I'm close by and hungry I'll stop in. read more

I live right down the street from The Breakfast Shack, but we somehow overlooked this place for over 2 years. HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?! If you're a fan of cheap and yummy breakfast, you will love the Breakfast Shack. This small hole in the wall diner serves up some quick and delicious breakfast options. My husband and I stop by here at least once or twice a month for a weekend breakfast for under $20. Try their pumpkin pancakes - they don't disappoint! There can be a wait on the weekends if you get there after 9am, but come a little early and you shouldn't have a problem. Enjoy! read more

Solid option for an easy meal in Boynton. I'd like to give them a 3.5, but Yelp doesn't provide that option. Hubby and I swung in here late this morning when I decided to take the day off from work. I ordered the Island Shrimp Wrap, he ordered the Crab Cake Benedict and we split the Coconut Macadamia Nut French Toast because the reviews and pics here looked SO GOOD! My Island Shrimp Wrap was too salty. It tasted like the seasoning that the shrimp was cooked in (jerk seasoning, maybe?) was just too thick and made it way too salty. My husband liked his Benedict and the French Toast was really good. The primary reason why I docked them a couple of stars was not just because of the salty shrimp. Our server listed off side options for my husband; he chose the hash browns, but what he received were hash brown patties (think McDonald's or Burger King breakfasts). Really? Patties? Everything else seemed cooked to order, but PATTIES?? That is really lame. Also, the television was a HUGE distraction. The Price is Right was on, and it was just too loud to a point where, of the 7 full booths, 4 were turning their heads to watch it. I just felt like it ruined the atmosphere. The Breakfast Shack has some cute, beachy, island decor on the walls, but the booths and the tables/chairs in the middle are nondescript and simple. I'd try this place again, and hope the television was turned off, would not order hash browns as a side, and would stay away from any shrimp dish. The service was A+ friendly, though! read more

Nasty! Walmart frozen food! Biscuits are frozen Hash browns are frozen and greasy! Toast was burn! Really like bread is that expensive nowadays you can just make a new piece of toast. Service sucks! Stay away! McDonald's has better breakfast than this place. read more

Tasty food, good service, i did not give it 5 stars because it's a little too crowded so i would not recommend this place to a claustrophobic. We ordered buttermilk pancakes and Banana Macadamia Pancakes and they were DELICIOUS! and the portions were good also, will be back for sure! read more

We went for breakfast I ordered banana macadamia nuts pancake and my hubby ordered plain french toast service was pretty quick the staff weren't friendly at all my pancake was really sweet really sweet i couldn't eat more than 2or3 portion of food is huge and the enviroment is nice and cozy. Overall is a good read more

The almond encrusted French toast was good, but definitely not worth the wait. We were told it would be a 30 minute wait, but 75 minutes later we still hadn't been seated. Once we had a table the service was awful - no refills even after asking several times and extremely unfriendly and rude servers. The hash browns and biscuits were definitely frozen and honestly, McDonalds' are better. Would not return. read more

We moved to BoyntonBeach in June and we fell in love with the restaurant, but as time passed they started declining, it's a very busy place and there's definitely staff and scheduling issues. On a Monday the restaurant is at full capacity with one server (not her fault in any way) they had no tea bags and took 15 minutes to bring coffee. After waiting over an hour and a half the table that came 15 minutes after was served their meal. We waited another few minutes and asked politely to bring the check for the coffees and apologized as I assumed at that point the food was already in process to find out it wasn't even started. Unfortunately we will never go back as I stated in the beginning the service has declined in just a few months. The food is good unfortunately it's not worth the wait. read more

Very slow service and mediocre food. Stopped for a quick breakfast and disappointing food finally arrived 45mins after ordering.

This was my first time here. I got him very nice greeting when I walked into the place. My timing was perfect. All the booths were taken but there were still some large tables available. And the counter was completely available which is where I sat. Reasonable prices at a large selection. By the time I was leaving.... They had a wait list. This is a very busy restaurant. Breakfast and lunch only. Definitely worth it. read more
