    My Eggs Benedict
    Melanie H.

    Beat the rush this morning and me and my friend were the first people in Uncle Bill's Pancake House. Gigi our waiter was a doll and the service was incredible. I ordered Kelly's Favorite which is Eggs Benedict and it was amazing. I recommend getting up early and going to Uncle Bill's for breakfast!

    We came in the "off season" and had the place almost to ourselves ... our server was extremely friendly and very attentive. The food arrived hot and fresh. Everyone in our party enjoyed their food. It's not the most economical place on the island but it's fresh and had a good taste.

    Delicious. Great service. Friendly atmosphere. Best pancakes ever! Everything excellent!

    This classic brunch spot was one of the only spots open on New Year's Day! There was a 20 minute wait but we got seated before that. They are very professional with taking names down. I got some eggs, potatoes and rye toast. It hit the spot and fulfilled my hunger. Some reviews mention it is crowded and the booths are small. I would agree, as someone who is a bit on the taller side, but I think without winter coats, it works! I think the place is just trying to optimize real estate.

    Visiting off season is risky since my usual breakfast spot is closed on a Tuesday. So here we are, forced to make difficult breakfast choices. First impression: bright and cheerful dining areas and very friendly staff. I can see how it can get quite noisy when it is with so many tables. Food was delicious and was well portioned for the price. I'm happy to return again.

    Good food and fast service. We have been to Uncle Bill's a few times and each time we have left happy. There are breakfast and lunch options with a few daily specials thrown in. The blueberry pancakes are a personal favorite and the serving size is huge. Additionally they have many egg options and sandwiches. The staff is friendly and happy to offer suggestions. Things to note: -credit cards accepted (pay at counter) -open for breakfast and lunch -during the summer time expect long lines -free Wi-Fi

    Amazing experience! Restaurant has a diner/homey feel and offers a lot of seating. The staff is super friendly, our server Melissa was fantastic! So sweet! Service was fast and food delicious. Buttermilk pancakes sooo delicious, scrambled eggs perfectly cooked and fluffy, bacon perfectly crisp yet not over cooked! I had the dollar delight, husband had scrambled egg whites, Turkey sausage and toast which he really enjoyed.

    It's not an Ocean City family vacation without multiple trips to Kessel's! During our week at the…read moreshore, we visited Kessel's three times: takeout on our first night, ice cream mid-week, and an early dine-in dinner before heading home. As always, each of our three experiences this July were fantastic, with our last shining the most. We typically do take-out on night number one, and like in years past, the food is always ready on time and prepared as ordered. We ordered an array of items including Cheesesteaks, Chicken Caesar Wrap, Burgers, Grilled Cheese, Fries, and Onion Rings. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The line stretched around the side of the building the night we stopped for ice cream, but it moved quickly. Staff efficiently took orders, prepared cones and sundaes, and kept the line moving despite the large crowd. While take-out is always great from Kessel's, I will always prefer dining in! You really can't beat the old-school diner vibes and decor, and the service is outstanding. Julia, our server, did an incredible job with our party of 7. She was highly attentive, frequently checked in, and really added to our experience. My Cheesesteak Hoagie with hot peppers may have been my favorite thing I've ordered from Kessel's to date, but it's hard to go wrong with anything on the menu. The burgers and wraps are also solid choices. I also ordered a fresh Peach Sundae and I highly recommend! Julia even made my sundae herself in addition to waiting tables, and it tasted every bit as good as it looked. Absolutely picture-worthy! Kessel's is a cash-only establishment, but for seven people--including sandwiches, burgers, wraps, multiple orders of fries, and a few desserts--the total was just over $100. That's an incredible value especially at the Jersey Shore. Kessel's will always be a staple of our family vacations and continues to be a highlight for our nieces. If you've yet to experience breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just an ice cream sundae from this adorable, little, retro-feeling diner, please pay them a visit. I think you'll be glad you did.

It is normal to find oneself with a peculiar sense of being without time, and being within a coca-cola controlled dimension between ours and that of our forebears. It is crucial that you ignore any compunction to run screaming out the front door and onto the streets of Ocean City. I assure you, they are not there. What you see through those windows is an illusion to illicit comfort in your mortal mind. In actuality you have been removed to an extra-temporal imposition of Americana-kitsch. Once you have reconciled this fact and cleansed yourself of any unclean thoughts you may proceed to your booth, where you will order one cheeseburger and one strawberry milkshake. It is important that you order only these two items, as ordering any others will upset the delicate harmonics that weave our world with it. You will enjoy them. You will Pay. Only now will you be returned to our reality. It is an archaic anti-theft measure, but it is an effective one. You will leave. Be safe.

    We live a couple blocks from The Grubb and wanted to like it so badly. I'd ordered sandwiches once…read morebefore a few weeks ago with no snags, so figured we'd try it again as a group. Unfortunately, after tonight we will never be going back, and I can't recommend it to anyone in good faith. The service we received was so so so disappointing. I would love for this place to improve and for this corner to find a home. At this rate, I just can't see it lasting until summer 2026. Summary below: - We ordered a few items for dinner, and received an estimate of 35-40 minutes. All good so far. - We show up after 40 minutes and nobody comes up to us at the counter for at least 5-6 minutes. Ok, fine. We tell them we're picking up and they go check on things. Keep in mind there are probably 4 people eating in this restaurant and no takeout line to speak of. - After a full hour they finally bring us a brown bag, and tell us it's all ready except for the chicken salad wrap we ordered, which they don't have on hand unfortunately. - "So when did you uncover this???" 10 minutes ago they say. Remember we've been here for 20. Would have been nice to know maybe when we ordered, or at least when we showed up 20 minutes ago?? - We say fine just grab us a Caesar salad, that should allow us to get out of here quickly. - After another 15 minutes (!) they finally bring us our Caesar salad. It has now been a total of 1:15 since our order. - After this ordeal they have the audacity to try to charge us an extra $15 on the bill!! When they tell me to swipe my card luckily I have the presence of mind to review things -- "um, this looks higher than I heard on the phone?" Sure enough, the total was incorrect and they tried to over-charge me. I really don't want to dump on The Grubb but it was just a sad sad experience and we were really so disappointed in the quality of service. It wasn't exactly overflowing with business on this night, and yet everyone seemed really overwhelmed and backed up (maybe understaffed or under-trained?). To make things worse, nobody was very apologetic or made much of an effort to make things right. We had such high hopes (the sandwiches are really great!) but after the worst takeout experience I've had on the island, I will never order from here again. :( - 6/21/2025

The Greek side salad was honestly one of the best I have had, the feta on top was generous and delicious, and the side pitas tied it all together nicely.

The atmosphere was so relaxing ! it truly felt like vacation mode. I ordered the avocado toast, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I asked for a side of feta to give it a little extra flavor, and it was the perfect addition. My fiancé ordered the chorizo omelet, which came with potatoes and toast. It had all the right flavors, and he also added a side of avocado, which paired perfectly with the meal. Our only suggestion would be to offer a crunchier bread option. I think my avocado toast would be even better on a toasted baguette or rustic artisan bread, and my fiancé agreed that he would have preferred his toast to be a little crispier. Overall, we loved both the food and the service. The staff were friendly, everything was fresh and flavorful, and the outdoor seating made for the perfect birthday breakfast. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in OCNJ!
