This place is outstanding. I'm not a big breakfast eater. Never would I have expected a breakfast place to become one of my favorite spots in town. These days, I find myself hinting me and my girlfriend eat here every weekend morning. I got the pound cake French toast with scrambled eggs and bacon. Now, I'm not a stickler about my basic food, so to me, the eggs and bacon were just that: good eggs and good bacon. If you have a sweet tooth (as the kind waitress recommended the first time we visited), get the pound cake French toast before it goes off the menu. It was soft, buttery, flaky - simply the best French toast variation I've every had, and I've gotten that dish every time I've been there since. I sincerely hope it doesn't go away anytime soon, if ever. Word of advice: Use the waitlist feature. There's reviews here complaining that the restaurant is busy. Yeah, a breakfast place that is packed on weekend mornings shouldn't come as a shocker - especially if you have Yelp but didn't bother to use their waitlist feature. I always chock the busyness up to how good the food is and the energy of this place has. Give the staff a break. Again: Use the waitlist feature. read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Pound cake French Toast with strawberries with a side of bacon and scrambled eggs. Absolutely recommend this if you have a sweet tooth. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Morrisville, North Carolina

This ABE location makes me so happy. Many, many pleasant breakfasts here over the past several years, especially since management changed. Wasn't as big of a fan of the Travis era and before. It was very hit or miss with the General Managers, and that guy was a creeper, waaaay too close when talking to people. Way. Too. Close. And. Awkward. ....a.w.k.w.a.r.d. Adore the current team here, so sweet, kind and efficient in their service. The team here makes this restaurant. Always has. Down home hospitality, professional service, and sincere friendliness. I've tried ALL the menu items here, except the healthy ones, because WHY?!? Healthy people eating quinoa power bowls or whatever need to steer clear of me. This is comfort food! I'll lose weight later! I enjoy being fluffy, y'all. If it had butter, syrup, lemon curd, berry sauce, chocolate, hollandaise, caramel, blueberry sauce, whipped cream etc on it, I've tried it. If it was grilled, fried, griddled I've had it. If it had shrimp, perhaps not, but substitutions were made by the amazing & accommodating management team Greg & Kevin...because shrimp are ocean bugs. Have you seen their little legs moving quickly? Eeewww. I've had the regular coffee, the fancy coffee, the bloody mary, the mimosas, the mules...yup. Tasty. And water! I drank some water, dammit. It wasnt all alcoholic drinks. *wink* Clayton, Kevin, Brandon, Greg, Cathy, FRANK, can't forget Frank, and the kitchen team: SHOUT OUT TO THE KITCHEN TEAM! You guys rock! Thanks for dealing with all my modifications! Looking forward to visiting the team at the Asheville location in a few weeks too! Someone warm up my seat! I'm coming! read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Proof. I have consumed non-mimosa flavored things here occassionally. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Morrisville, North Carolina

"If you do not like what you eat here something is wrong with you" is what my friend said as we arrived at Another Broken Egg Cafe. She was so right as everything was amazing and this includes the service. To start I love that Yelp has the wait-list feature, so we were able to get on their list and check in while our table was getting ready. We did have to wait a few minutes when we arrived, but we were quickly sat and checked on by our waitress, who was so nice! She got our drinks started and checked on us every time she passed by. For drinks we got a pitcher of their peach bellinis, which serve four drinks for $30--not bad! Upon reviewing the menu for a little bit I decided on their Mardi Gras omelette which had similar ingredients to their shrimp and grits. I really feel like that was what I got as I ordered grits as my side. And wow, oh wow, the taste was just unparalleled compared to other scrambles and shrimp and grits that I have had in the past. The eggs were cooked to perfection and stuffed with tons of peppers, onions, shrimp, and sausage. Every bite just melted in my mouth and I just finished my leftovers as I type this! Now, we did wait about an hour for our food; which to us was not bad as there was a lot of people in the restaurant, the food is made from scratch, and their limited in their kitchen staff. The restaurant had a lot of wait staff, but the kitchen was just limited in their numbers. Again this was something explained to us and our waitress even stopped by and told us this; and to compensate she added additional prosecco to our drinks. We were so surprised to offer this as we were not upset at all. This was not the case of the people next to us that caused a crazy/rude scene. Everything stopped in the restaurant as they became extremely upset about the time and the quality of the food. The manager and several staff got involved and the people eventually left. I mention this because the staff handled everything very professionally even after the man complainer got in the mangers face and berated him with words--which is abuse. I felt bad about what occurred as this should happen to no one. Due to what occurred at the great service and food I will be back! It is difficult right now to find great service; so when you find it keep going there! read more

We recently stopped by before going to the airport on a Sunday morning. I used the waitlist feature on Yelp, and we walked walked right in at about 9 a.m. A few minutes later, the line was around the corner, and our server told us it's like that every Sunday. Definitely use the Yelp waitlist! We liked the decor, the tables were all socially distanced, and all employees were wearing masks. Our food--the Hey Lucy omelet and the egg platter with sausage and potatoes came out quickly. My friend liked his omelet, and my eggs were cooked well. The best part for both us, though, was the side of crisp-on-the-outside, creamy-on-the-inside roasted potatoes. The other best part was our server, Kathy. She was friendly and efficient, and we never worried about getting to the airport on time. read more

Truthfully I have never had a bad experience here, until today. My friend and I spent a majority of our time here waiting. And we waited for quite a while. At one point it seemed like everyone on our side of the dining room was waiting for their food. It took almost 40 mins for the food to come out and it wasn't good at all. Actually it was cold. The server didn't check on us at all during our time here and we only saw him when we dropped the drinks off and when we got the food. We had to ask another server for our checks and she seemed a little bothered that we did. I'm not sure if they were just short staffed and overwhelmed. But truth be told it didn't even seem that busy. I'm not usually one to complain, but I do love coming here. Hopefully the next time will be different. read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Fish and grits with garlic bread - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Morrisville, North Carolina

I came here with the understanding that this is somewhat of a chain establishment and therefore had certain expectations. I didn't come here expecting mom and pop vibes or fancy brunch pics for social media. The service we received was fantastic and I liked a lot of the New Orleans inspired dishes. The waitress was happy to make a lot of accommodations for substitutions for our party that had allergies and restrictions and it made our experience more comfortable. She was great and I wish I could remember her name to give her a shoutout. The menu itself is maybe a little pricey for the area and the food was alright (again, I understand this is probably a chain establishment so I didn't have super high expectations). I'm not familiar with the prices of the area since I was a visitor but it seemed a little higher than what I expected or saw at other places. read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Shrimp 'N Grits with potato subbed for the grits - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Morrisville, North Carolina

For our first brunch in the Triangle, we had heard too many good things about Another Broken Egg Cafe to not make this our choice. Knowing that a weekend brunch at 11 am was probably going to be damn-near impossible to just walk up and wait less than 30 minutes, my wife found an online, advance check-in system. Our name was logged and we were advised that it would be approx. 15 mins so we headed to the restaurant quickly. Here's how it played out. FOOD: REALLY GOOD!! I ordered the lobster and brie omelette with a side of grits (added cheese), our son had the biscuit and gravy and we also sampled the powdered beignets. The omelette tasted amazing with real bits of lobster, melted brie and a tomato-hollandaise situated over egg-wrapped cream cheese inside. It was warm, flavorful and fantastic for the $17 price tag. The grits? Amazing!! This is how standard grits should taste anywhere and probably the best consistency I've had in awhile. The beignets were more on the dense side with the firmness and consistency of a pretzel but tastes like warm funnel cake. I would have preferred these to be slightly less fried and on the lighter side, but they tasted good. The sauce served is a honey / orange zest marmalade that my wife loved but I felt had too much citrus in. I loved the honey, just not the orange...just personal preference. Had this been an apple / honey marmalade, I bet it would have been incredible. Our son devoured his meal and loved everything he ate. The eggs here are prepared flawlessly and they offer a wide selection of unique dishes you can't find at just any brunch spot. My reasoning for not scoring 5 stars for the food, is due to my stomach being very upset for the rest of the day with constant belching and acid reflux. I think I ate 3 or 4 Tums throughout the rest of the evening and did not eat anything for the rest of the day. Maybe too much butter, grease or oil? I don't know what it was but it turned my stomach into a heated, aggravated liquid boiling mess. The highlight of this brunch was the salted caramel cold brew. Oh my goodness. Think of a White Russian with some caramel and light chocolate inside of a salt-rimmed jar. SCORE 4.1 STARS!! SERVICE: Flawless service with a smile. Prompt follow ups, refills and acknowledgements were all there. Amalya even let us use her as a hand model for the spiked coffee. You did well. SCORE: 5 STARS!! Note: We arrived within 10 minutes and had to wait an additional 30 mins after we checked in so you may not want to believe what the online estimated wait time is. SCORE: 2 STARS!! OVERALL SERVICE SCORE: 3.8 STARS!! OVERALL SCORE: Coming in short of 5 stars for the apocalyptic gastro war that occured, I would still try this place again in a heartbeat. The food tasted incredible...but maybe I'll order something different next time to see if it's the same result to my innards? 4.2 STARS!! read more

Showed up after a 5k race ready to really stuff our faces, found that they were understaffed and couldn't open their patio, which was unfortunate because our group had a dog with us. They eventually compromised and allowed us to order 'to go' and sit on their patio to eat it, but didn't make it easy in any way. My blackened mahi benedict had great flavors - I really enjoyed the dry rub on the fish - but overcooked the fish to the point where it may as well have been fish jerky. Breaking my poached egg over it helped a little. The accompanying grits were utterly flavorless - I had to take them home and stir butter and salt into them in order for them to be edible. I think the best dish on the table was probably my friend's lobster brie omelette - if you're in the mood for something that rich, it blended the flavors nicely and provided plenty of lobster. My partner's apple fritter French Toast made me remember what French toast is - stale bread - because that's what it tasted like. However, the sausage he ordered with it was obviously homemade, with another cool unique spice mix that was totally different from the one on my fish, but equally good. read more

Best omelet I have had in years. Service was excellent. Staff was super friendly!!! Awesome place!!!

Love this place but be prepared for a wait. Even if you get on the list before you leave your house. The line is long on the weekends because it is good. Don't get the alcohol pitchers. It's more ice than anything. But their brunch cocktails are tasty. I love the uniqueness of the food. So far everything I've had is good from the omelettes to the creative pancakes. Love the lobster Brie omelette! Service is hit or miss. Sometimes they are understaffed. Even in the kitchen so your food may take awhile. It's worth it though. read more

Had a friend in town from NY city and thought she might enjoy Another Broken Egg Cafe. When we arrived they opened the door and welcomed us and already she said "wow, that doesn't happen back home!" Nice touch guys. :-) The inside is clean, warm and welcoming. Our server was attentive without checking in too often since we were busy catching up. There are a lot of options here - I got the huevos rancheros. Yum! The flour tortilla was crispy and delicious, topped with beans and cheese, salsa and I added chorizo. If you want to go the sweet route rather than savory, the menu boasts of blackberry stuffed French toast and lemon blueberry goat cheese pancakes - maybe next time! I was a little surprised no lattes or cappuccinos, like specialty coffee drinks but their coffee was quite good. It wasn't my absolute favorite but next to one of the yummiest breakfast entrees ever, it works. Fair priced if not a tad higher than some similar spots. I will definitely return to this or other locations. I came at a slow time but I imagine it gets packed being in a strip mall. Lots of parking though. read more

Amanda, the new bartender is rude, condescending, and obnoxious. She gets overwhelmed too easily for a busy brunch place.

I ordered the Strawberry Pound Cake French Toast because I was under the impression it would be French Toast that tastes like pound cake. Nope. I wound up eating pound cake slices dipped in French Toast batter for breakfast. Would be a nice dessert, but it was a super heavy breakfast. Still rating it 5 stars because honestly it was still really good. Ordered another time(Carrot Pancakes and Bacon; beignets) and yet again they delivered, especially with the pancakes. Everything is delicious and I highly recommend the beignets! read more

This is a regular brunch haunt for me and my family. The food is great and the servers friendly. Only 4 stars because everything takes forever. 15 mins+ for a Bloody Mary at brunch and 20+ mins for food is a bit excessive - especially with an hour or more wait every weekend. If they would fix the service speed they could cut the line in half or better! read more

There is usually a wait at this particular chain but today there wasn't. I was happy about that. There is seating near the front of the business if you have to wait. You have the option of sitting outside or inside at booths or tables. The hostess asked my preference before being seated. The business is a nice size with lots of seating. Our sever came over fairly quickly and took our drink orders, gave his name, & said to let him know if there were any questions. He was friendly & checked on us a few times during our visit. When it was time to take our order the sever took my friend's order & then walked away & started assisting other customers. I guess our server thought that the person ordered for both of us. Our server did apologize for his mistake. There was a little wait for our food even though it wasn't really busy. I got the veggie omelet with cheese, tomatoes, & spinach. The omelet was also good & was a large portion. It also came with a plain English muffin. The muffin wasn't that good this time. I thought that butter was served on it when I ordered it before. I added a little jelly to try & make it taste a little better. I substituted the fruit for potatoes. The potatoes were good & seasoned well. We also asked for to-go waters but they were never brought out. I would return but maybe try something else or another location. read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Veggie omelet with English muffins & potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Morrisville, North Carolina

My luck in the Durham area in the last 2 weeks has not been good. This is primarily a breakfast and brunch restaurant but they stink at eggs. I mean, egg is in the name of the place so you should know how to cook them. Was here with my daughter and wife and we all split the Salmon scramble that had salmon, spinach and capers. The eggs were cold and wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy over cooked. They were brown and crusty (in egg speak, burnt). The salmon was also over cooked. We also ordered the Cinnamon roll french toast. It was actually good but it came with scrambled eggs that were also cold and over cooked. The service was marginal at best. The bartender took our order even though we weren't at the bar. Right off the bat he seemed bothered we didn't order alcoholic drinks. We had just sat down and ordered water and we're starting to look at the menu and he asked if we were ready to order. We said we needed a few min but it was 15 before he came back. Also, the floor was nasty throughout the restaurant. They might break eggs here but don't know how to cook them. read more

This place was packed on a Sunday with nearly a one hour wait at noon Very good coffee as well as bloody Mary's and the Mimosa's were also a very good pour Pretty good selections of mimosas as well with your standard orange juice and other enhanced variations The menu also offered several gluten-free options which we took advantage of The menu featured a wide range of egg-based dishes from crab or salmon Benedict's to a pretty ambitious omelette offering as well we enjoyed a variety of the main entrées and all of us we're very happy with our selections The service was good and the coffee cups never went below half which was very important for our crew! Only downside's were that we had to request the hot sauce and one of our party was missing 2/3 of their breakfast when the rest of us were plated I would recommend this place if you're in the area and looking for an enhanced breakfast menu If you're looking for basic diner this place can fit the bill as well as for the gourmet version of diner classics Total for two people with bloody Mary's is likely going to be mid 40s read more

Let me start by saying the food here is Ah-Mazing! But the wait to receive our food was ridiculous! we joined the waitlist and once it was time for us to be seated we were seated right away and we were then greeted by a waiter who took our drinks. after she took our drink order she left us to decide on what we wanted to eat. when she returned she took our order and told us the food will be right out. That was a lie though she kept checking in periodically letting us know the food will be right out but it was never coming "right out". It actually took us over an hour to receive our food. it was so bad that we had to delay our appointment at the nail salon in order for us to even eat which was a huge inconvenience for us. So bad to the point we were given a discount for the inconvenience. thankfully the food was actually very good. if it wasn't for the long extensive wait time I would have given them five stars but I'll be nice and give them at least an average score of three stars. My boyfriend had the cinnamon roll french toast and a had the lobster grits with cheese which was delicious. I would recommend maybe hiring more chefs/staff members to prevent long wait times otherwise the food was great. read more

Another Broken Egg offers many good brunch options with complimentary beignets with orange marmalade as you wait for your food! We came here early on a Sunday morning in a party of five and were seated right away. I ordered a cappuccino (which came in a cute cauldron-like mug) and the Lobster and Brie Omelette with country potatoes. The omelette was filled with brie and sautéed lobster meat and topped with champagne butter sauce, diced tomatoes and green onions. It was very good but heavy because of all the dairy, so it lasted two meals for me. I'm excited to go back and try one of the spiked lattes or mimosas in the future! Update: Been back for weekday lunches and there weren't complimentary beignets these other times. read more
