Super cute inside and friendly staff. The kitchen still needs to iron out some things. We ordered biscuits and gravy, breakfast bowl and a pancake. The biscuits and gravy were decent, breakfast bowl is funky. Potatoes are too big to be bite sized, but it's in a bowl so really awkward to navigate and each with other items. Eggs were way over cooked. We ended up actually sending the pancake back because it was super eggy tasting and the batter had fallen and was flat. Really rooting for this place though! Hope it continues to improve and iron some of the kinks out. read more

Super cute love the vibe and it's next to a great bookstore with lots of unique gifts. The service was amazing, our server had really good energy and she was patient as we chatted away taking our time to order.i had the egg sandwich with a side of avacado no meat. The potatoes were perfect and my chai was just what i needed ! I will be back ! read more

Since the bookstore is right next door waiting for your table can be fun. Homemade food always good.

People are nice and place is cute. Food is subpar. Almond pancake was mealy and bland. They kindly cooked it more for me because I thought that could help, but it did not. Rest of the table reported average food on their plates. read more

Fun atmosphere with a vintage throwback vibe. Great staff and food outdoor patio available. It's worth the wait.

Excellent breakfast/lunch place with separate vegan/vegetarian menu as well as a full menu for the rest of us! Jordan, our server, was very good. I had the chorizo omelette which had some nice zip but was enormous! He had the sausage, biscuits and gravy which all tasted homemade. Potatoes and toast very good. Some nice bar selections that help you get past the owl decor (which is actually kinda cute). Be sure to walk off your meal at excellent next door bookstore. read more

The Toasted Owl Cafe - Absolutely delicious! Especially love the potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The coffee was a little too "toasted" to stomach. The staff was nice but a little too ready to kick us out after we paid. I wasn't done with my meal but was taken as soon as we paid. Will be going to Flag next time. Food was also mid at best. read more

Came for brunch, there was about a 20 min wait on a Saturday at 12 pm but we put our names down and went to the bookstore next door and it was perfect. A lot of vegan-friendly options, cute atmosphere read more

Amazing options for gluten free or vegan diets. Perfect for families with free parking, friendly staff and a kids menu that will actually entertain the whole family. Gluten free buns and toast are available. The turkey havarti party did not disappoint! Oh, and I want to buy all the owls! read more

The place is charming and rustic. Reminds of being in Prescott with casual and cozy with no loud music. People were having quiet conversations. The wait staff were very pleasant and friendly. They didn't bother you often. They would walk by and if you needed anything I would ask The front are windows but covered with shade from the trees. It is right behind Newton's Prime Rib. I had pancakes and they are very good. You can order just one or two. I ordered two and I said I would like a co Tao er to put one away. He put it in the container. Nice. It's been a issue with me. My friend has the egg scramble. Her eggs were perfect. She chose sour dough toast. You have a nice selection the potatoes looked delicious. Nice browned potatoes. Go and enjoy. Don't wait. It is clean and if you like owls you will enjoy looking at the owls covering the walls. Dress is casual. read more

Was looking for a new brunch spot to try to catch up with a friend and this place did not disappoint!! Went in on a Saturday morning around 10am and was told by the sweet hostess that it would be a 15 minute wait for a party of two, which was no problem at all. After 5 minutes or so, I got a text that my table was ready and was sat at a nice table inside. Our server came and greeted us and got us our waters and our drinks order. The menu was full of so many yummy sounding meals, I couldn't decide. Ended up choosing the Spanish omelette with a side of a pancake instead of toast and it was absolutely to die for! The potatoes were seasoned and soft. The omelette was filled with lots of chorizo, cheese, veggies, and that slightly spicy green chile sauce on top. Now the pancake was huge and warm, plus the addition of butter and the warmed maple syrup made it even better! Took some of it home since it was so much food. Loved everything about this place, from the cute owl decor, great service, and delicious food. Will most definitely be back to try more of the menu! Plus there is a cute bookstore next store to check out ! read more

Food was great and such a cute location. Lots of menu options. Our waiter was very attentive

This is a unique restaurant. I have eaten at the locations in Flagstaff and Phoenix and enjoyed both breakfasts and lunches. The food is good quality and delicious. The restaurant can get a bit busy on the weekend. But, that's probably because it's good. Right? read more

Great Place for Brunch Great way to start the day. If you're looking for great service, delicious food you have to try this place. Nothing fancy, but really good comfort food. On this visit we shared beakfast tamales, a breakfast burrito, pancakes and potatoes and everything was fresh, well seasoned, made to order, and served pipping hot. I really enjoyed the tamales and pancakes. The pancakes are huge and the homemade strawberry preserves was the perfect pairing. If you're in the area give this place a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

I love a good avocado toast and had been looking forward to trying the Phoenix toasted owl location! I ordered pickup online. It was ready just a couple minutes after the expected time, but it was pretty busy here. Also I love the location, right near some other cool places like changing hands! Looked cute inside here too. I got an avocado toast. For some reason I only ordered one meal and they only charged me for one meal but they gave me two! So now I have an avocado toast for later if I want haha. My only complaint was that the potatoes were ice cold, and I tried a bite as soon as I got them so it isn't like they got cold on the ride home. But otherwise everything else was good, do wish the toast they used for the avocado toast was a little thicker and crispier, but the toppings were extra fresh and yummy! Absolutely love that they have a vegan menu. I will be back to bring my husband for a breakfast date sometime! read more

The Toasted Owl Cafe - Avocado toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This little gem was DELICIOUS today! I had the almond pancakes with a side of sausage. And an elder mimosa. My friend had the veggie egg scramble with avocado and pomegranate mimosa and endless coffee. The coffee comes hot or cold. Our service was on point! I showed up first. It seemed full, but I got a table for 2. Everything is for sale, including the tables and chairs. It's a cute neighborhood gem in the corner of this outdoor mall with another restaurant. I'll be back for sure! The atmosphere and ambiance remind me of a farm to table restaurant in NorCal. The options are vegan friendly and health-conscious, and then there's the on full options. All DEELICIOUS! There's vegan protein options, galore. This is good, people! read more

Great service and cozy place. We enjoyed the decoration and atmosphere. I had a burrito and it was huge. More than I needed.

The biscuits and gravy were delicious and filling. Adding the eggs is necessary in my opinion. Eggs were cooked to order perfectly. I would order this again. Service was fast and friendly. Cute tchotchkes on the walls showing off their owl theme. I will definitely come back. read more

Awesome find for vegan / vegetarian/ gluten free options. An additional menu for "regular/ no diet considerations" food options. Our waitress was more than accommodating & very pleasant. We will be back. read more

The cafe is nooked in next door to Changing Hands Phoenix, which is in one of the green belts. The parking lot and front of the building were nice and shaded, it almost felt like I wasn't in the desert for a moment. While we waited to be seated we perused the books and purchased more books that will sit on my nightstand for all of 2024 before they get read. I love the open floor plan especially since we went on a day where it was not 100 degrees. Everything from the chairs to the owl decor is for sale. I took home an owl mason jar. My partner ordered a custom omelette which was fresh, tasty, and fluffy. The potatoes had a great garlic flavor, cooked to have a crisp outside and a mushy inside. I had the prosciutto and brie sandwich. To quote my least favorite spiky haired TV chef, "talk about a flavor bomb!" I subbed the ciabatta for sourdough because I felt with the fat in the brie the ciabatta would be too much. I think I made a wise choice for my tastebuds. The brie was silky and buttery. The prosciutto was prosciutto with a pungent saltiness contrasted against the sweetness of balsamic. I would come back a million times for that sandwich. My sweet potato tots were fresh and yummy, but I did think it needed just a little more salt. Overall I was super happy with our food and will definitely be going back tenfold. read more

This quirky decorated restaurant opened up in the empty space next to changing hands book store. Everything I saw on other tables looked delicious so it was hard to decide. They have a full breakfast and lunch menu. I got the fig, prosciutto and Brie sandwich with fries. The fries were perfectly seasoned! Highly recommend read more

I have no clue how this place gets a 4.6. The food for breakfast was ok at best, tons of items that are frozen and then cooked or fried. Not fresh. Food came wrong. The ambiance was nice and retro was very fun. The host was rude and condescending over the phone. Won't be returning. read more

The Toasted Owl is tucked behind/next door to Changing Hands Bookstore, possibly one of my favorite spots to hang out. The Owl will page you when your table is ready so if you are like me, this was a blessing :). As for The Owl and Sunday brunch, the food was just so-so. We shared an almond cake (eggy and almondy), a veggie omelette (nicely filled with veggies but cold, the potatoes were at least warmer) and a Happy Trails Salad (generously packed with dried blueberries, dried cherries, fresh strawberries and walnuts but the balsamic vinaigrette was oddly very salty at the end of the taste). Our server was busy with other tables and we didn't see her beyond drop off and check. Not a slam on that person, they appeared short staffed, a theme lately. I wouldn't rush back. read more

Epic food, get the green chili breakfast tamales! Decor is cute, it's a bit pricey but worth it because of creativity and ingredient quality. read more

Great food and great service. The Reuben and beet salad were fantastic!! Love the vintage decor and atmosphere!!

Our breakfast was delicious and served super fast. Love the decor, too. Was worth a short wait. Thank you.

We have been wanting to try the food here for a while. Now I know why they have a line outside the door. We were lucky to sneak in before the rush. We were seated in Jordan's section. Service was great. We tried the Bacon 'R' Sausage Scramble, breakfast bowl served on a plate, and buttermilk pancakes. All were very delicious. Very comfortable place with owls on the walls. If you want somewhere new to try, give them a chance. read more

I can't remember what entree I ordered but it was delicious. And the potatoes! I really didn't want to eat toast & potatoes in the same meal. Once I tried the potatoes, I had to eat all of them! Owner was kind & a class act as well. The service was good too. Great spot. read more
