One of the best places I've had breakfast. Great food, excellent service in a cute part of town. I know this restaurant is part of chain but it doesn't feel that way. The menu has some standard things and some really unique items particularly if you're trying to eat healthy. All of it, awesome. I came here with a group of eight - everyone ordered a different thing. And it all looked and tasted SO good. read more

Every bite of the cinnamon French toast was bland , I should have tried an omelette because the French toast definitely wasn't worth it. I think I'd rather stick to big bad breakfast. read more

There's always a line out front, especially for Sat/Sun brunch, so we finally got to see what all the "fuss" was about. Sunday 9:30AM and had a ~20min wait, not too bad I guess. For starters, had the beignets. It was small bit size pieces and came with a citrus-honey sauce. It wasn't quite Cafe du Monde, but not too bad. I had the Bacado Omellette (bacon and avocado w/monterey jack omelet). I could see little green bits resembling avocados, but the bacon and cheese simply overpowered it, rendering it to be a simple garnish. Wifey had the Crabcakes Cavallo (benedict style with crabcakes). Eggs were poached just right (firm but runny); however, a little too much hollandaise. It was just ok, but nothing spectacular. All in all, it was simply "ok". Atmosphere was nice, with a real welcoming feel. But to have lines running out the door and around the corner, a little over-rated to say the least. read more

To start off I use to love going to Another Broken Egg. Mostly for the mimosas. However, after what I experienced today. I will never be back. After awaiting 25+ minutes for food to arrive during early hours with only 11 people being in the business, some of which were already eating, our food was dropped. It took 10 minutes for someone other than our waiter to come over and halfway explain what happened. It took another 20 minutes for food to arrive. I definitely understand that mistakes happen but the issue was the general manager Michelle was not accommodating and even condescending in the way she poke to us. As a professional I expected more from the general manager Michelle and waiter William and the way they treated their customers. We had to call for someone to come to the table to get service and food was mediocre. This business does not take responsibility for the mistakes they make and for that reason I will not be back and will spread the word. Our ticket was over $100 and we expected better service. Less than 4% was taken off a $100+ ticket. It was insulting. Communication is the key and today the team at Another Broken Egg did not reach expectations. read more

Staff was friendly and attentive 5 stars for them. Beignets were good 3-4 stars. Coffee avg at best 2-3 stars...I'm a coffee snob. Biscuits and gravy was ok...when they cook it better at a hospital...that's a problem to me. Chorizo avocado omelette...can't remember the name was ok. It's like Denny's... food is good, you can do it at home....but if you're lazy go there. I just can't compare it to anything around here because this is my first time at a breakfast place in this area. However compared to wonderful restaurants in LA SF Indy NY DC Orlando...it's a 3. read more

Awesome Food especially the shrimp and grits. Be prepared to wait but it's worth the time!!!

I've been coming to this location for atleast 5 years now. About a year and a half ago, my husband and I came for brunch. It wasn't real busy at the time and I had ordered salmon avocado toast with other sides (as plain avocado toast isn't exactly on the menu, so I requested grilled chicken). Wellll... when the toast came out, there was a thin layer of green stuff.. it literally looked as if green butter had been lightly spread throughout. My husband asked for a side of avocado toast and explained how it was a bit silly even calling my meal "avocado toast" considering the minuscule amounts of avocado "spread." 2 small slices of avocado were brought out. After almost 35 mins of waiting for food we decided to speak to the manager.. as we were dissatisfied with quality of food and amount of time to receive it (as I said.. it wasn't really busy). We never complain!!!! We usually eat our meals the way they come because we've both worked in bar/restaurant industry. Manager comes out, argues with us and explains that's how "avocado toast" is served. He then proceeded to print ticket defensively saying "your order was put in system at this time and you received it within 16 minutes." REMIND YOU: we showed him the time on my phone saying table was ready and food was placed 40 mins after so waitress clearly forgot to place order in mannerly time. Long story short, manager did poor job at handling situation and basically said we were wrong. My husband hasn't gone back since.. he refuses. Well today I met girl friends for my 2nd time since terrible experience and I must say it was AWFUL!! My friend ordered cold brew then waitress says they are out of cold brew.. that's okay.. things happen and places sale out!! She orders different beverage and TWENTY THREE minutes later, my mimosa and her blood Mary appear (I did check with server to ensure she placed order after 17 mins). As we order food, my other friend wanted crab cake Benedict and shortly after, waitress returns to say "oh I forgot to mention we're out of the crab cakes"... like why not tell us everything you're out of as we sit down?! Food comes out and my Monterey Jack omelette has about 4 pieces of chicken and NO AVOCADO! It also took 10 mins (after requesting) to get water refills. I'm not one to complain but this location has been extremely disappointing the past 2/3 times. Will NOT be back.. it's unfortunate because it's always been my go to brunch spot and now I wouldn't recommend to anyone. read more

Love this place for breakfast in my early 30s, can get all the bloody mary's I can handle ;) with a wonderful breakfast spread. Their food is simply delicious. read more

Breakfast options are great, especially if you have either a sweet tooth or on a health kick. My family started with breakfast appetizers beignets and a large cinnamon roll. The pastries were a great start and my family continued with the sweet tooth route with various types of French toast, I went a little more savory with scrambled eggs, spinach, baked bacon and cheese grits. I was pleased with how well balanced everything was seasoned including the grits. Nice brunch-like atmosphere and very attentive wait staff, great job Brad! read more

The reviews on Yelp drove us to check out Another Broken Egg, while on vacation, and it did not disappoint. The food was fantastic! The location was cute & the coffee was plentiful. Both my husband and I really enjoyed the food. The service was a tad slow, or rather, our server seemed confused. He was consistently asking and re-asking questions we had answered clearly. I am not sure if he was new or what, but he was very scattered. But all of our service needs were met, and we enjoyed breakfast immensely. read more

Came here for Sunday brunch. Waited forever. The host kept telling everyone the same time 30 minutes, which was inaccurate. We waited about 50-55 minutes. Once we were seated, honestly we were so hungry anything would have tasted good. In hindsight, I'd say the breakfast food were pretty good - 4 stars. It is typical brunch fare. My girlfriend loved the mugs they had. If you have the time, it's good food. If you are hungry, bring a snack or stay away. read more

This is probably the best breakfast place i have been to in birmingham. The food is amazing, the service was decent. Yes there is a little wait but, just wait the food is so damn good you will enjoy. read more

The food was delicious. The prices were reasonable. The atmosphere was pleasant. Looking for a place to brunch in bham? this is a good option. My guest and I shared the skinny omelet and then a more traditional meat and cheese omelet and both were great. the giant cinnamon roll with cream cheese icing and a mimosa topped off with a citrus vodka shot made for quite the finisher. needless to say, we left full and happy. the only drawbacks were the wait and the parking, which obviously worsen together. The earlier you can arrive, the better off you are to avoid the late rising or post church crowd. Overall, a good experience. read more

This restaurant is more rustic and not as creative with their food choices. I expected a variety of breakfast items but there were just meats, waffles, and pancakes (no hash browns but they did have home fries). I was impressed about how fast we were seated on Easter morning however I was not impressed by the menu. read more

Great find!! Plenty of food, not just your ho-hum recipes. The Bloody Mary was very delish! Definitely recommend the pancakes and the biscuit and gravy! The City Grits...YUMMO!!! Can't wait to go back and try another omelet or even a Benedict! Beignets were great also... I could go in and on!!! read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mountain Brook, Alabama

Come early since the lines are long. The wait is utterly worth it though. We loved the atmosphere and we received great service. Our waitress was sweet and outgoing. We loved the beignets and absolutely had trouble trying to decide what we wanted off the menu. Everything looked mouthwatering. Was really surprised that this was a chain! I had the Bacquezo Omelette and my husband had the Stan's #1 Omelette. Both were great. We also loved the beignets - we devoured those. Now that I know it's a chain, I'll be seeking out its sister restaurant in our area. Yum! read more

Had the french toast and bacon and everything was really good and you get a ton of food. Check it out.

My favorite breakfast/brunch place in town. Everything I've had here is good. Their cinnamon rolls are ginormous & delicious! Not typically great service, but the food makes up for it. read more

While there's nothing wrong with the breakfast/brunch food, I expect better from a place that specializes in breakfast.

Definitely hits the spot! My favorite are the potato sensation dishes which may not be on the menu.. But if you ask they can do it. Also, try the pepper infused vodka bloody Mary's.!!!! Coffee is also really good! read more

Great service! Great food great atmosphere! The service was impeccable all the servers and greeters were attentive. Food came out hot and timely. read more

We stopped here on a random drive by while on a road trip and i am glad we did. This is not your greasy spoon type joint, food was excellent and staff was very attentive. I have since learned that this is a chain and i look forward to stumbling on one again. read more

I had the shrimp, craw-fish and mushroom omelet with a cup of hot cocoa. It was delicious! Our waiter was amazing, making sure we were pleased with everything. I will definitely be returning for an evening soon! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants to frequent for brunch. Recently, I was lucky enough to be served by Amanda. From our chat, she just moved to the city and boy am I glad she did! She was very helpful, attentive and personable. My date and I hated to leave we enjoyed her presence so much. If you stop by, ask for our new friend Amanda! read more

Pretty good food but nothing exceptional. Nice area, but very slow service.

We stopped here for brunch one Sunday morning and were seated right away. We ordered omelets, I believe mine was the Chez fon. It was ok, the cheese was over powering and had a funky taste. We ordered a sweet potato pancake with brown sugar cinnamon, wow!! Simply amazing, that was the best part of our meal. read more

I always have a good experience at the location in Mountain Brook Village. I think it's overpriced, but the food has never disappointed me.

About the best OTM place for breakfast. The menu includes delicious items like Eggs Benedict. Imaginative but not fussy dishes. We've never had anything but a pleasant waiter. (Is "waitress" still a viable word?) The rooms, especially the front room, are cozy and comfortable. We often wait to get a table. It's so worth the wait. read more

Great food and service. The menu was excellent with so many good choices. We're definitely going back to try some of the other fare. So many great options. read more

Cute little restaurant that is surrounded by shops. The mimosa was good and strong and the Bloody Mary was very spicy. Everything we ordered was delicious especially the breakfast potatoes. Only negative was our waitress wasn't that attentive and it took a long time for our food to come out. read more

I had the lobster omelet and it was unforgettable! The omelet was filled with a light fluffy cream cheese which complimented the lobster and egg nicely. The lobster was sweet and tasty and the omelet was perfectly cooked. That with a cup if their wonderful coffee and put a fork in me bc I'm done!! Absolutely wonderful! read more

Best French toast! Cinnamon Roll French Toast is the best ever. Simply put.

This was a very nice Saturday morning breakfast and an excellent atmosphere. Eggs Benedict was a 5, Bananas Foster Belguim Waffle was a 5, Hot Coffee was a 5, and the Restrooms were a 5. The only reason this was not a 5 star restuarant overall was our breakfast had old blueberries on the fruit plate and cold home fries. We will return on our next visit to Birmingham and enjoyed our breakfast! read more

This place was really delicious. I highly recommend anything on the menu, and the wait staff was very nice as well. On a Monday morning you won't find many children here either, and one table beside us was doing an interview. read more

Absolute must go to for breakfast or brunch. My favorite is the Benedict Oscar, cooked absolute perfectly every time! I have been to the Mountain Brook location, Panama City and Destin, all supurb! They have the best Prach Bellinis and Bloody Marys I've ever had!! Great atmosphere and food! read more

Another great vacation find. We enjoyed breakfast on the patio. The menu is upscale with a good selection of breakfast and brunch items. The skinny omelet was delicious. This is a quaint cafe that provides a wonderful dining experience. read more

Good, but not the best breakfast restaurant. There is always a long wait and parking is a challenge.

I found there to be plenty of parking, sat right down, ordered the traditional with yummy bacon and was served quickly. The service, cleanliness and food were all delicious. Great stop. And the coffee was very good! Took one to go. read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mountain Brook, Alabama

Amazing breakfast spot! Went on a Friday morning. Was by myself but asked for a table. Not a fan of counter service as a rule. They had a table for me right away. Ordered the Bacquezo omelette. It's cream cheese filled bacon omelette covered in chorizo and green onions. Loved it. Not too spicy. The breakfast potatoes were boring little French fry squares. Stuck with the excellent omelette. read more

My husband and I went one a Sunday around noon. We were pleased to see the crowd left a free table outside, which was pretty comfortable in the shade. Unfortunately, the bugs were out of control though. Flies of some sort were constantly landing on our food and drinks. Not sure if there's away they could try to address this. When our beignets arrived, we were given a dirty plate. Finally, my monterrey omelet was good but my partner's biscuit had little gravy on it and my biscuit was undercooked and doughy. For the price, it was disappointing. read more
