    Excellent!! Enjoyed the Eggs Nissa and Lamb Omelette. Smoothie- spinach, pineapple & banana...super fresh! Hot chai was delicious and made from scratch!!

    Chicken and Waffles

    Hidden gem - delicious! I got the chicken and waffles...the best chicken and waffles I've ever had. My friend got the corned beef skillet and loved it as well. Service was good and ambience is casual. We will be back!

    The food, service, and overall vibe was spectacular. Definitely the best breakfast I've had in a long time.

    I've been following them on IG for a while and I finally got to go today--woohoo! We loved it! The service was excellent; Gizelle took care of us and she was super friendly, fast, and attentive. The place is small but very cute, with great beachy vibes. The food deserves a special mention. My picky eater ordered a hash brown and a chocolate chip waffle. It was honestly the first hash brown I've ever had that was cooked to perfection--not greasy, not cold, and not undercooked. Amazing! The waffle was huge, fluffy, and delicious. She ate almost all of it My dish deserves its own paragraph... OMG. The avocado toast actually had real avocado. Not just a thin spread--nope. It was basically a whole avocado, perfectly seasoned and full of flavor, topped with a poached egg that took it to the next level. If you get the chance, don't miss it. It's the perfect spot for breakfast or an amazing brunch.

    Have been here 3-4 times and everything I've tried was amazing!! Love their drink selection too.. the smoothie and mango lassi 10/10 I was hesitant to get the chicken tikka masala but it turned out to be really good. Service has been great as well Definitely check this place out for a brunch or lunch :)

    New ownership and they are on the way to success! Warm and welcoming, this place offers some interesting menu items and old school charm. I had a Chai Latte to go along with my order of Shrimp and Grits. The shrimp were a nice size, plentiful with a nice sauce over the smooth Cheddar grits. Lots more to try here ... we will be back!

    We have been wanting to come here for some time, but never quite got around to it. The old owners sold about a year ago. The new owners have been here about a year and are still tweaking the menu. Brazilian and German, but long time U.S. residents, she said. We found a place to park not too far away on a side street. It was raining heavily, but cozy inside. We got the last open table when we arrived. The breakfast and brunch options looked great, but I was focused on the Indian dishes. I decided to get the one with shrimp. The dish I ordered is (now) called butter shrimp. They are planning to change the name for the new menu as it's not the mild plain dish you'd expect. It's spicy with lots of different mushrooms and peppers and onions. Hearty. Spicy enough to make my nose run and my eyes tear. Even after removing several small jalapeño pepper slices and a pile of cilantro that topped it off. But I loved it. A half dozen large shrimp swimming in a thick delicious sauce. On a separate plate was the rice -- that kind with those little vermicelli noodle pieces in it; Some naan bread -- that was more like roti and thicker than naan. And some vegetables -- sautéed green beans and steamed white cauliflower pieces. Both of which I added to my sauce. There was a small container of a cold cilantro dressing that I was not sure what to do with. My husband chose the shrimp and grits brunch item. Cheesy grits topped with a half dozen shrimp with a drizzle of sauce and a large bacon piece. Plus a perfectly cooked poached egg. He really liked it. For drinks, he had a hot chai latte. Very good, he said. And I had a decaf iced cold brew. Perfect for calming my spice. We can't wait to come back and try more of their menu options. This one's a keeper.

    "What an absolute gem of a restaurant! From the fantastic breakfast and lunch menus to the outstanding service--which is a rare find in today's hustle and bustle--everything was perfect. As an expat from England, I've tried my fair share, and this is hands-down the best English breakfast in South Florida. It is easily the best-kept secret in Lake Worth Beach!"

    Western Omelette

    Food was amazing. Service was not so great. Very friendly BUT with all the speciality things they do (fancy coffees-fresh OJ) they need to have a person doing those for their servers because your table service lacks. Only got 1 cup of coffee, she never offered a refill and took us forever to get a box to go. Cool Ambiance

    Chicken & Waffles
    Jasmine S.

    This would be my second review! It is still amazing! The only difference I see is that they changed the way they cooked their chicken and they increased the quantity of chicken! Definitely a better upgrade for the chicken and waffles. Shrimp and grits were good but personally for me, it had too much oils in it. Other than that it definitely was great to come back here! On top of that, the customer service is too notch!!!!

    So happy the quality has been maintained. My steak and eggs created a food coma, even with several cups of delicious coffee. Inside or outside seating. Great vibe. Even better service. Budget friendly for what you get.

    I love this place for breakfast, brunch and lunch. The owner is Brazilian and the food is incredible! I love how I don't have to worry about choose something different because every single thing in the menu is fantastic. The ambience, people and the music make me feel like home. The employees are polite, and very kind. My favorite there is the juices and the iced Vietnamese coffee. Thank you!

    We were in the neighborhood for an appointment at a dental lab and had about an hour to wait…read morebetween procedures. Not having had lunch we figured let's check a few local eateries. When I checked Howley's on yelp I was surprised that there were so many negative reviews. Howley's is managed by the Sub-Culture Group, and we dine regularly at Kapow in East Boca and Dada in Delray Beach, also managed by Sub-Culture. And while this is an entirely different type of food, I still wanted to take a chance and check them out. And we did and were pleased and more than satisfied. First, the decor is truly funky. I'm not sure if everything is from the 50's when they first opened, but it sure looked like it was. The restaurant was spotless, and the toilet was as well. The AC was strong which was appreciated. Artwork on the walls was not our style but must have been from a local artist. Ceiling fixtures were similar to what my parent's had in the late 60's. Jessica was our server and she was professional and positive in her attitude. Could not have asked for anything more. Decided to order a turkey club on rye bread ($15) with fries which were included and share it. Some of the reviews addressed how large their portions were and photos confirmed it. Jessica brought out the sandwich which was split in the kitchen with an ample amount of fries on each plate. The fries were delicious. Obviously freshly made and not sitting around, they were crisp without being overcooked. The turkey was described as fresh roasted sliced turkey and it sure was. Bacon was plentiful and crispy along with fresh lettuce and tomato. Mayo served on the side as requested. The sandwich was so large that I was only able to eat a half of my half, taking the rest home for the following day. Ordered a corn muffin and chocolate chip muffin to take home and each was fresh and delicious. ($5-$6) Howley's certainly warrants a visit if you are in the area and not seeking a trendy looking place which exists all over West Palm where the food may not be as good but the vibe is what is being sold with mediocre food. There was an on-site manager who visited our table to make sure all was good. I neglected to ask her name and apologize - she was welcoming and clearly on top of her managerial duties. Would I return? Sure would. And endorse fellow helpers to check them out.

    Howley's is a great local spot that has a wide variety of options. Today I ordered the New York…read morestrip steak with mashed potatoes and gravy, and the vegetable of the day was fresh green beans cooked with garlic and shallots. I also tried a cup of their chicken noodle soup, which I enjoyed. The steak was cooked perfectly and came with crispy onions on top. The mashed potatoes had a very nice texture, and you could tell that the gravy was homemade. The green beans were crisp and flavorful.

We were warmly greeted on entering. They were pretty busy the whole time we were there. You can tell they get a lot of "regulars". The menu is large: lots of breakfast and lunch options. With a huge blackboard on the wall with daily specials listed. Service was wonderful, also. Attentive and caring. My husband ordered the meatloaf dinner with mashed potatoes and broccoli. He got gravy on the side. I'm guessing he liked it as there was not a crumb left on his plate when done. I ordered the chicken pot pie from the daily specials board. It wasn't as expected, but quite good. The top "crust" of the "pie" (served in a long oval dish) was a few layers of filo dough. Underneath were a lot of nice chunks of white meat chicken, peas, and other veggies. All in a cream of chicken like sauce that was very good. Forgot to mention that the pot pie came with a cup of soup. There were three choices and I got the Greek lemon soup. It needed an extra squeeze of lemon and a dash of salt, but it was decent. For dessert, we wanted to try their coconut cake, but they were out. (They close at 3). We settled for sharing a slice of some warm apple pie with whipped cream on the side. The pie was good. Breakfast specials look great. And there are a lot of other lunch items I'd like to try here as well. This is a keeper.
