We Love Bakers kitchen it's definitely a saterday staple in my house!! BUTTER SYRUP ALL THE WAY!!!

Best breakfast in New Bern by a long shot, although there aren't many options for breakfast- I'd still go here! Service has always been good except for ONE time out of the 20+ times I've gone. The ambiance is just what you'd expect, I do prefer to sit upstairs as opposed to downstairs. Biscuits and gravy, as well as the cinnamon roll meal are my go tos! read more

Have never had any problems with food or service. It is good though so be prepared for a short wait.

Foood is sooooo good here. The butter syrup is amazing. The pancakes are great. It's cozy.

Food is good as always. Had a little hiccup with the wait-list but management immediately fixed the situation.

Every time I go, it is wonderful! Best chicken salad and meatloaf. Love the service too. Will return again and again.

When this place first open my food was basically made to order always hot and fresh. I feel like today when we ate there the food was good but it was basically done in 2 minutes my food was not hot more like something that had already been cooked and sitting in a warming tray. They were out of the sweet potato biscuits which is the main reason for coming. My waitress was super nice I just don't feel like it was worth the hour wait time like it used to be. I have nothing bad per say but it's just not what it was when it first opened. They set the bar really high when they first opened so I had higher expectations from this place! I would just say it's okay. read more

Very friendly staff, the food was great. I need to go back because I liked what I got and wouldn't ordered more but I couldn't eat another bite. The butter syrup is good as the other reviews said, but the Dutch potatoes were the hit for me. Definitely worth hitting if you're in the neighborhood. read more

This place was good. Wait was around 30 minutes but Saturday morning so it didn't matter much. Server was kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. Food was alright, nothing special and while other dishes were good, I definitely would not recommend the funfetti pancakes. The space is large and decorated nicely, which overall contributed to a solid Saturday morning brunch. read more

Food was not the best. Kid had a big eggshell in his scrambled eggs, coffee had a teaspoon full of grounds. Over 1.5 hr wait and 90 bill for mediocre food, not worth it. read more

Always a beloved breakfast stop when we are in New Bern. We've never made a trip and not visited the Baker's kitchen. I love the atmosphere, the food and they have extremely fast service. You can join the waitlist on yelp to get in line. I highly recommend doing this on weekends. The Dutch potato's are a must! You won't regret ordering them! read more

The food is amazing and the staff is always willing to help. The waitresses always remember you when you come in and ask if you're getting your usual whether it's a beverage or food. read more

Best breakfast food around. Idk how they make their grits but they are so creamy & good. & that Buffalo Mac & Cheese is top notch too.

Food is always delicious! The wait times can be long sometimes but if you add your name to the list via yelp ahead of time, it makes it so much easier! read more

I stopped here for lunch after flying into New Bern on a Thursday afternoon. There was about a 5 minute wait for a table for one and based on what I've read, waiting here is not unusual. I was seated and quickly greeted by a friendly waitress who took my order. I opted for the meatlovers omelet with wheat toast and because I was eyeing up the food of the customer next to me, a side of sweet potato fries. The omelet was delicious! Very thin egg layers which was actually nice and super heavy on the meat which was OK by me! The fries were so so good, especially with the butter syrup to dip them in. My only slight complaint was the toast was under toasted and needed more butter. But that wasn't enough to dock a star from this meal. The prices were reasonable, the service was spot on, the place was clean, and everyone was friendly. If you are looking for a local family friendly location to eat between 7-2, this is it! read more

Amazing food and service! We always hit it when we are in New Bern. The wait can be long.

The food is top notch i had grits for the first time and they were great with butter.

We go once a week. The mimosas are great. And those Dutch potatoes, ohhhh the potatoes!!!!

I visited Baker's kitchen for breakfast around 9:45 AM, it was my first time . I was put on a waiting list and I was sat within 10 minutes of waiting. Once I got seated I got a server who was very assertive & nasty to me. Her disposition was off and when I asked questions, I felt like it was a "problem" or a burden from her reaction to simply do her job and answer them to the best of her ability. Once the order was place it took less than 15 minutes for the food to come out which threw me off completely, just for the eggs to look like they have been fried in some grease instead of scrambled , the bacon was hard as HELL and tasted disgusting and the only decent thing was the cinnamon toast crunch pancake, which after a while was soggy as FUCK . I couldn't even tell you the servers name because she didn't give it to me, NEVER GO highly do not recommend. read more

The food's always amazing. Everything I order there has always been great. Great first thing to order here is the chicken and waffles.

We arrived when they opened at 7:00. Margaret was our server and was so pleasant! The atmosphere was comfortable and had a country feel to it. It is spacious inside. My coffee was piping hot and very good. Breakfast choices were plentiful. I ordered the Farmers Wife. It was a wonderful meal! The butter syrup is what they are known for and it was good on the French toast. I highly recommend and would go back. read more

Bakers kitchen is just as amazing as I remember it. We were stationed at Cherry Point over 4 years ago and just got back and the first place we wanted to go for breakfast was here. It was delicious. The Dutch potatoes are to die for and the French toast was amazing. Our waitress took great care of us and even though the waitlist was long when we got there it moved quickly. Can't wait to go back. read more

Tasty food. Be sure to put your spot in line on the yelp app and go to Surf Wind Fire across the street while you wait.

Delicious food! Friendly professional service! Very nice roomy restaurant! Went on Mother's Day, so it was very busy, but they got us in and seated, and everything was exactly as it should be ! read more

Hopped in the line over 40 min ago have been second for 15 min and they just told us 15 more min service needs to be better to prioritize those who have been on the wait list longer not smaller parties read more

Was in New Bern recently and looked up breakfast places on Yelp, yes I use Yelp when visiting new places, and came across Baker's Kitchen. It is located in the historic area a couple blocks up from the waterfront. We were able to park a couple of stores down on the street for free and I went in to get some baked goods for the ride home. It was just past 2:00 and they close at 2, but were happy to let me get some to go things. Now it is not often that I see something new at a bakery and yet it happened here, a cornbread cookie. Never seen one never heard of one before so I had to get one and both the Mrs. and myself were happy I did. Delicious as well as the other things we bought. Great baked goods seem harder and harder to find as time goes on but not here. Enjoy read more

Don't bother with checking in online. We checked in online and the waited inside for two hours to be seated before we were informed that even though we had checked in online we still needed to have the hostess add our name to the list when we walked in. There is no signs posted stating this and when you check in online it stays "You are all checked in". This negates the point of checking in online and has never been a thing any other time we have ate here. We normally check in online walk in have our name called and be seated. We have been eating at bakers for years and this is a first. But just a word of caution if you plan on checking in online. read more

Thanksgiving day, I met my son there at 11, to be told that they are closing at 11. POST it online!! We both drove over an hour, and then had no where to go for Thanksgiving! Thanks for ruining a holiday get together! read more

Not much has changed since my last review, this is still our family's favorite place to go for a traditional breakfast, brunch, or lunch in the New Bern area. All the baked goods are very fresh as you'd expect being that they are made fresh daily right on premises. The food is home cooked and inviting. The smells alone are enough to pull you in. Do expect a short wait on most weekends for sure. This time I went outside the box for what this places serves because I was craving some fried seafood. Well, just so happens they do that pretty well. Though my portion wasn't some massive thing, I definitely left satisfied by the very plump and perfectly breaded shrimp. The squash casserole and cole slaw that I chose for sides were also very tasty. The slaw was not mayo heavy, just how I like it. No complaints for anyone else at the table either, this will continue to be our go to place! read more

A great spot in New Bern for breakfast or lunch! I arrived very close to closing time at 2pm, they were no longer taking any table parties. I ordered to go, then I mentioned I was an hour from where I'd end up eating. They quickly offered a table and I was able to eat my fresh delicious meal. I had the southern hamburger plate. Great flavor and perfectly prepared. Also had a side of okra. Piping hot and delicious. The server was attentive and kind. Very clean and neatly kept dining area. Will return with friends! Cant wait to try the breakfast. I grabbed a red velvet Oreo pastry to go. Again delicious! read more
