I was in the area for work and looking for a relatively local place. Another Broken Egg is a chain, yes, but only in the sense that they have other locations in Texas. This trait is both an upside to the local vibe and quality, but a detriment that it is so far from where I live. Because I would definitely be a regular. There were lots of folks waiting on this Saturday morning as I had time to kill before flying home, after visiting the area for work. But, the host station handled everything well, quickly acknowledged people coming in, communicated clearly, and added folks to a text-based notification system. I opted to wait for the bar area and it proved to be faster. The bar staff were phenomenal, friendly, energetic and perfectly attentive. It's a modern cafe in a "strip mall" shopping area in a sense, but still, worth visiting. For the food, I had the coffee. OMG great Colombian coffee, so good. I drank it black - it needed no help. Adding cream or sugar would be an insult. And it was served in a beautiful stoneware mug. I ended up buying one as a souvenir ($23 at the time of this post). I also had the lobster brie omelette. I wasn't 100% on it by the name, but wow - it was amazing. The lobster was just right, it blended with the brie very well, and the eggs and other additions made a beautiful omelette ensemble that hit the spot. read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Lobster brie omlette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

Another Broken Egg Café has the kind of menu that wants you to believe you're about to have a polished, indulgent brunch -- the sort of thing Austin does extremely well when a kitchen actually commits to balance and intention. On this visit, the ideas were there, but the execution felt like it took the morning off. The Lobster & Brie Omelette sounded like it was aiming for a little coastal glamour, the kind of dish that should feel light, silky, and just a touch celebratory. Instead, the Brie came in like it had something to prove. It sat on top in a thick, molten sheet that never melted into the eggs -- it just smothered them. Pair that with cream cheese inside, and the whole thing leaned dense and sticky on the palate. The lobster was tender, but it didn't stand a chance under all that dairy. In Austin, where chefs know how to let a star ingredient breathe, this felt more like "we had Brie, so we used Brie" than any real culinary intention. The gumbo missed the mark in a different way. The first spoonful tasted thin, like the roux never fully committed. It didn't have that slow‑built depth or warmth that makes gumbo feel like it's been tended to. The seafood didn't bring much character because the base wasn't there to support it. Honestly, the focaccia on the side had more personality than the gumbo itself -- and that's not the hierarchy you want. Service was warm and the space pleasant, but the food felt like ambition without follow‑through. In a city where brunch is practically a competitive sport and where balance, technique, and restraint are the norm -- these dishes needed more refinement and a clearer sense of flavor priorities. With a little more intention, they could be far more compelling than they were on this visit. Tell me this, Yelp fam... what is your fav brunch spot?

Yum! Tasty spot for brunch!! We loved the beignets and delicious sugar filled breakfast items. The biscuits are massive and buttery. Great place for down home flavor. Would have loved to see espresso drinks on the menu. Beignets took a while to come out but were worth the wait. Service was friendly but not over the top. read more

I recently stopped by A Broken Egg Cafe for brunch, and overall it was a really enjoyable experience. As soon as I walked in, the atmosphere stood out--it was warm, nicely decorated, and had that relaxed brunch vibe that makes you want to sit and stay awhile. Our waitress, Shayla, truly made the visit special. Her customer service was top-notch--she was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond by bringing us complimentary biscuit beignets while we were still deciding what to order. Those were absolutely fantastic--light, sweet, and a great way to start the meal. For my main dish, I ordered the eggs Benedict. It was good, but not the most flavorful in my opinion. That said, it was only my second time trying eggs Benedict, so my expectations might not be fully dialed in yet. I also had a side of buttermilk pancakes, and those definitely stole the show--soft, fluffy, and everything you'd want in a perfect pancake, the breakfast potatoes on the side were also a great addition to my meal who doesn't love potatoes. Overall, I had a great experience. The service especially stood out and really elevated the visit. I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu in search of that full 5-star feeling. For now, I'd give it 4.5 stars, mainly thanks to the excellent service. read more

Great choice for brunch! Lots of good options on their menu but the one that stuck out to us was the cinnamon roll french toast! That was actually the deciding factor on why we chose Another Broken Egg Cafe. Wasn't too busy on a Friday morning around 11ish AM and was a pretty full restaurant. The service was good & the food came out pretty fast. We ordered the french toast (a la carte) mentioned earlier [$13.49] & Eggs Benedict [$14.99] but we subbed the english muffin for the biscuit cause I wanted to try it. The biscuit was really fluffy and good. Love a good biscuit! The hollandaise was not really hollandaise. It's not the yellow sauce we know and love. It tasted more like light gravy which we were surprised by BUT didn't hate. I actually really enjoyed it as it was a new twist on the classic Eggs Benny. Mmm the french toast was the best I've had in a while. Definitely didn't need syrup, maybe it already had some, IDK. It came w/whipped cream and some fresh berries that complimented the sweetness of the french toast! Chef's Kiss! The restaurant was clean and there was plenty of parking in the square full of restaurants. It only got four stars because there was nothing really that blew me away where it warrants a 5/5 rating. With that said, I'd definitely be back if I was in the area again. read more

I'm not a huge fan of chain restaurants but this one gets it right. While I come for the delicious omelettes I'm obsessed with the cookie dough waffle. It use to be seasonal but it looks like it's coming to stay (fingers crossed). I love to try new things so the apple fritter French toast was a must and who doesn't love loaded grits? While the service was excellent the communication from table to kitchen could use some work. The potatoes came hot and fresh but they were not seasoned as stated on the menu. Stick to basic things if you want you food hot and fresh, otherwise you could end up waiting a bit and your food will be cold. Overall this is always my breakfast vibe. Great music, delicious food, good service, all at a reasonable price. read more

This restaurant is close to one of my work locations and I often come with colleagues for brunch/early lunch. They can get pretty busy but we always manage to get seated without too much of a wait. The menu is primarily comfort food with some healthy choices as well (salads, half sandwiches, etc.). I think overall the food is good and is comparable to a regional or local chain type of deal. Think Denny's but better. I guess what I am saying is it's a good place for office dwellers to hit up. I will definitely keep going back with co-workers. The food they serve satisfies if that makes sense. It's a very clean establishment and the bathrooms are near spotless. read more

Ambiance: modern and moderate noise for weekend brunch. Lots of families dining out and about, but tables not necessarily elbow to elbow. Service: pretty good for a busy morning. Still smiling and attentive to our additional requests Food: limited season soft shell crab was awesome! Mayo based sauce went well but wasn't overpowering or drenched in oil. The light sprinkle of veggies/scallions also helped cut the overall heft of the meal. Potatoes were alright, 3/5. Felt they weren't that fresh and were kinda dry. Kids French toast plate was pretty good portion. Most people including us left with leftovers. read more

We've been told by many that Another Broken Egg Cafe would be a strong contender for a go to chain breakfast spot. We've also been told the Tooth Fairy was real. Now we just think people are liars. Another Broken Egg is a name fitting for just another boring experience. Parking was easy to find, although the spaces are pretty small. We put ourselves on the waitlist and waited close to 10 minutes before we were able to be seated. The restaurant doesn't really have any inspiring decor, at least nothing gimmicky like other spots. The service was pretty slow for a half full restaurant on a Sunday afternoon. Bathrooms were moderately clean as well. As for the food, it was largely uninspiring, even for breakfast. We ordered the French toast with sides of bacon and eggs and the supreme omelette with a side of potatoes and toast. The French toast was very average, something you could find an equal pretty much anywhere. Bacon was very much the same, eggs are just eggs. For the supreme omelette every bite was different, some good some really bad. The bites with mushroom were notably not good as the texture just felt off. All around a big swing in a miss with the most redeeming thing being the size of the plates we ordered. By the end of our trip to Another Broken Egg Cafe we felt very underwhelmed by things, particularly the food which is pretty important considering it's a restaurant. This is by no means a bad restaurant but certainly one we would not recommend going to. read more

Definitely not just another broken egg cafe. Not only is the food salivating, but they also have excellent service. There's gonna be a long wait on the weekends, so best to join the waitlist here on Yelp before arriving. I did and got a table within 5 minutes from walking in. Just make sure you walk in within 10 minutes of your estimate wait time. The options are plenty and all make it difficult to decide. They serve Simply juices, and it's one of my favorites, so I got the Apple. Then once I saw chorizo on the menu, I had to order the Southwest Scrambler served with flour tortillas. I chose the potatoes as my side and they came loaded with bacon and cheese. Everything was mmm mm mmm good! read more

Visited on a Sunday for brunch. You can check waitlist times and place your name online via Google etc. Wait times were 20-30min. Atmosphere, prices and service were very nice. I was just not a big fan of the food. Coffee tasted bitter, hamburger patty was the thinnest I've seen, the cinnamon roll French toast had too much going on. I was excited to try someplace new, but will have to skip this one. Again this is solely for the food, everything else was fine. read more

Came bright and early midweek for a work team breakfast celebrating a birthday. The bartender got us started with some coffees and just good conversation then when everyone arrived we got sat a table. We all ordered different things and everything looked great, the potato's were a bit salty but if you like your potatoes on the saltier side then it's just right. I ordered the Lucy omelette, realized after I finished my English muffins never came with it, but the grits and omelette itself were both very good. Our server was kind and courteous. We all agreed we'd dine again. read more

For a place with 'egg' in the title, the egg dishes were not great. I got an omelette and my friend got an egg scramble. We both thought our dishes were just okay. However, the biscuit beignets were tasty. They were more hard than I would've like them to be, but they were good nonetheless. Shoutout to our server Carolina! She was super sweet. In fact, she gave us the biscuit beignets for free since we were first time visitors. Thank you, Carolina!! With that said, I would go back, but I would try something different. The pancakes look amazing! read more

This is a great breakfast/brunch restaurant! Interior is clean, food is delicious, portions are big, and prices are pretty good! I ordered the Southwest Scrambler, and it's kind of like Migas and it tasted really delicious! They give guacamole, which is always a blessing! The portion size was huge, and I was full when I finished it all. The server was really nice and patient because my friends and I were new and didn't know what to order but we were also talking a lot. The interior has a rustic vibe, but it's clean, which I really appreciate. From what my friend told me, it gets really busy in the weekend, so going during the weekday may be your best bet to try this great restaurant! read more

Great atmosphere and staff. Too bad we were just passing through. Would like one close by us!

This place feels overrated. It's so popular you have to join a waiting list, but honestly, I didn't notice anything that sets it apart from other breakfast spots. The service was slow, and the food was just average. I asked for a coffee refill, the waitress came over, poured about a third of a cup, said 'Oops, we ran out,' brought us the check, and never came back with more. Disappointing experience overall. read more

I've been here 3 times now. The last time I went was for a large group brunch last month (June 2025). There were about 15-20 of us and I made a reservation in advance. We had to wait a bit to be seated but we were seated together. The staff was amazing! Our orders came out quickly and the servers were very attentive. I had a phenomenal experience and was blown away by the care we received. I had an iced raspberry chocolate cold brew and the peach cobbler pancake plate. The bourbon street pancakes are also delicious. Overall, I've enjoyed all the dishes I've tried here and the items are reasonably priced. read more

Great spot for brunch! Has plenty of options to choose from for breakfast, lunch, or both.

Came in for breakfast on a Saturday morning and was able to find a seat at the bar (first come first serve) so didn't have to wait for a table. Got a coffee and was so happy it was delicious (had 2.5 cups total during my breakfast) and loved the mug it came in. Got the hashbrown benedict with potatoes and a side of crispy bacon. Both were quite tasty, the benedict was a bit on the cooler side (not piping hot) so by the time I got to the second half was cold. Service was nice and prompt with little wait time between ordering and receiving the meal. Sitting at the bar provided great service for refills and checking in throughout the meal. read more

Cute place, service was good! Okay portions at a reasonable price. The chicken sausage was not good. The potatoes were fine!

We were really looking forward to going here because of all the great reviews, but I was unimpressed. I never write bad reviews but the hype is not real. Best thing we liked was the waffles, and the strawberry French toast. The chicken was super dry. I ordered the crab cake egg Benedict with gumbo on the side. The egg was almost hard boiled and the gumbo was super runny. The potatoes tasted like it was reheated then recooked. Our waiter gave us the check before my family still were eating half their meal. Definitely not coming here again. read more

I'll start with why I docked a star. No matter when you join their wait list, you will always be waiting longer. We went on Sunday around 12pm. Joined the waitlist in advance and was told it would be a 45 min wait. It took till 1:20 for us to be seated. That's frustrating. Outside of that, big fan of the place. Lots of fun drink options (boozy coffee included), lots of breakfast, brunch, and lunch items. And they have something for every one! read more

This brunch restaurant is so popular that it is impossible to go during peak hours without a decent wait. The first time we tried to come here, we got in line online in advance, but the wait time at the restaurant was still an hour. When we asked the hostess, we learned that the online feature does not actually put you in line, but it guarantees you a table before the restaurant closes. So basically, there is no point in this online feature unless you are fine with waiting a few hours. I ordered the apple fritter french toast, which came with eggs and my choice of side. I opted for the breakfast potatoes, which were very flavourful and densely seasoned. The french toast was very sweet, and I enjoyed it. I didn't need maple syrup as the apple sauce was strong and syrupy. My friend ordered the huevos rancheros, and he did not like the large tortilla chips as they were difficult to eat. His side of fruit was a good assortment. My biggest grievance about this restaurant is that the parking spaces are SO small. All the spaces are compact size, so if two regular-sized cars park next to each other, you can't even open the door. read more

Delicious! The wait wasn't too bad for a Saturday, just before noon. About 25 min for a table of two. The hostess, however, could stand for a refresher on greeting customers. She didn't. We stood waiting, with a line forming behind us and she was constantly walking back and forth without ever saying a word to anyone. Thankfully, another worker came and handled that part of the experience. So much on the menu sounded amazing. It was pretty hard to narrow down, but I spent my 25 min wait deciding on exactly what to order. Once we were called to a table, it took a sec for our waitress to find her way to us, but she was friendly & very helpful. The restaurant was busy, but I would say the food arrived in a timely manner. I wasn't paying too much attention to the clock though.. I was too busy checking out the food being delivered to other patrons. Everything looked & smelled mouthwatering.. I ordered the Lobster & Brie omelette with "City grits" & orange juice. Honestly, it was better than I expected. My companion ordered the shrimp & grits with a side of eggs & bacon. We both cleaned our plates & the orange juice tasted so fresh. I would absolutely give it another go! read more

I've come to learn I'm not the biggest brunch person.

The food was alright; I got hash brown eggs Benedict, and it was... well, sustenance. I got a Paloma which was also okay. Definitely not somewhere I would wait an hour for.
