Random call from friends fir a mimosa and breaky
Patti C.

Surprise call to join friends for breakfast at our old stomping ground! Never disappoint here with fresh hot food, good portions, lots of options and friendly service. Fun casual beachy atmosphere is relaxing and a great place to catch up with friends.

Had such a great time at Beach Diner! The menu was extensive, and the food was even better. Everything came out super quick, and the beachy atmosphere really topped it off. Highly recommend!

Decor

Great breakfast spot! I really liked the vibe of this place, super homey and beachy. Our coffee cups stayed filled and our server was very friendly.

Absolutely delicious. Went on Mother's Day and there was no wait! It's a very cute and small place but very welcoming! The server was extremely helpful and attentive during our time there. I ordered Eggs on the Bayou and it was absolutely fantastic! Super flavorful! Definitely recommend!

Breakfast burrito and Fresh Fruit
Alli R.

Great, friendly service. Delicious options for sweet or savory breakfast and lunch available. Our table shared a bowl of fruit and it was fresh and tasty. The tuna & tabouli sandwich was so good and the french fries were fresh and crispy. Would love to come back. Cute, family friendly beach diner atmosphere - the name says it

Breakfast burrito

If you're looking for a solid brunch spot with good food and fair prices, beach diner is the place for you! We had a reservation for 8 people on a Sunday morning and it was definitely packed! The menu has tons of options, so I ended up going with a breakfast burrito. The burrito, in itself, only comes with eggs, cheese, and either sausage or bacon. I wanted something more fun so I had them add onions, pepper, mushrooms, and avacados. It also came with house fries which were basically roasted potatoes with onions. The potatoes were very bland on their own. Thankfully I had hot sauce to add some flavor to them otherwise I would not have eaten them. The burrito was a decent size, cut in half, so person for 1 person. The flavors were pretty good, but again, the hot sauce saved the day. I've had better brunch places but given the variety, price, and quantity of food, I would give it a 4/5!

I really liked Beach Diner. When I stepped in, I was immediately greeted. The interior and patio areas were spotlessly clean with a bright cutesy eye-pleasing décor. The atmosphere is super casual and laid back. You can't help but can't help but feel comfortable eating at Beach Diner. I had their egg Benedict which was perfectly prepared which was a steal at $8.48, while my Beloved enjoyed their "Eggs on the Bayou" with crabmeat and Hollandaise sauce. Everything was nicely prepared, and professionally served, and the coffee was of course bottomless.

Woke up early and wanted to grab some breakfast before driving away from our beach vacation. The only place open was the Beach Diner so we decided to give it a try. I wasn't really expecting much but my expectations were sorely way misplaced. We got a friendly greeting from the host Chris. He provided some great suggestions and promptly placed our order. The much needed coffee was delivered first and fast. What I really enjoyed was the coffee wasn't anything fancy. It was just a damn good cup of joe. I ordered the steak with pouched eggs on top. The ribeye was cooked perfectly and so were the eggs. When I sliced into them the beautiful yolk just flowed out and covered my steak. It was delicious. As a bonus I also got their pancakes which smelled of vanilla but tasted like a cloud dipped in syrup. Highly recommend trying them for breakfast.

I've passed by Beach Diner a million times and finally got to try them this week. I got up early and saw the sunrise at the beach. My friend and I decided to stop in for breakfast. We arrived at 7:30 AM and it wasn't too crowded as it was a Wednesday. We were told to pick a seat so we found a cozy booth by a window. We were greeted promptly by our server requesting our drink order and she gave us menus. The service was friendly and our food came out in what felt like five minutes. Very fast! I ordered the veggie omelette with Swiss cheese and fruit on the side. The omelet was delicious and the fruit was fresh and sweet. I only ate half the omelet and all the fruit and I was satisfied. The diner has been in Atlantic Beach for 30 years and now I see why. If you are looking for a great breakfast and with a charming atmosphere (remodeled) stop by Beach Diner!

I can't believe it's been years since John and I ate here! We had been for breakfast numerous times and I thought we had dinner once- but maybe it was lunch since the hours are beach diner short. I had a couple birthdays and family gatherings camping at Hanna Park and this is an easy place to hit up breakfast and always good. There is good reason they are always packed. We had a table within a few minutes and were so grateful not to get the tiny 2 person booth that I swear they should only seat skinny people there! We've been crammed into that booth before- we laughed about it remembering. I was having a clumsy morning and when we were making our way to our table I saw a server in the aisle and thought I would be smart and move to the other aisle to avoid him only to crash into another server who spun around to leave from taking an order. Brick wall- we grabbed hold of one another so neither of us actually fell and John caught me from behind too. Great... I was just saying the night before that I have social anxiety... the person didn't believe me either! Onto breakfast- I confess I did not love my biscuits and gravy, but I know I love their waffles, omelets and pancakes. John ordered a breakfast platter that came with eggs, homefries, a pork chop and a biscuit and I did snag a few of his delicious homefries. The eggs were cooked perfectly- my biscuit was a little hard on the outside and I felt like the gravy was canned. No worries- I will order better next time. I am not dinging any stars because I know I love other dishes and John's breakfast was great! We need to go again soon!

Vicious biscuit is an amazing place to indulge in flavorful food in Neptune Beach…read more I recently tried this place on my short trip to Jacksonville and was very glad it was on the way to my hotel in Jax beach. They offer a variety of different biscuits with chicken and other proteins and also have a pretty robust menu with other options. I was impressed immediately with the service as I explained it was my first time visiting and they staff went out of their way to make recommendations! This establishment offers breakfast cocktails, a butter/jam bar and amazing vibes! The portions are huge and the prices match the quality. A must stop if you find yourself in Neptune beach

The acoustics make conversation difficult. Vicious Biscuit - jalapeno biscuit - Thick, pasty. Chicken - good crisp and not dry. Gravy - lacked seasoning and didnt have any maple drizzle:-( Fried Green 'Mater - thick cut and just the right amount of fry on them so they aren't squishy. Breading was light and well-balanced. The shredded pimento cheese spread was top-notch. It was creamy, rich, and flavorful. It sets this side apart from the others. They also have full-size pickled okra that rocks. Chai latte - thin, light, refreshing with an cinnamon accent, borders on a horchata, then the chai pops up. Overall, the visit was pleasant with solid food, but not so amazing that I would drive out of my way to come here again. I have had worse and I have had better.

On arrival my friends were easily assisted and provided a spot outside upon request for four of us for brunch. Server, Michelle, made sure all could be set up quickly- balloons and cake. She was exceptional. Quick service, very thorough, super friendly- but not just that, very personable. Answered all our questions and made great suggestions. Appetizers were Buffalo cauliflower (not on brunch menu) and spinach dip. Both were wonderful- great flavor and portion size was large. Meals; Two Short Rib Benedict's- Large serving, we each ate half. Good amount of meat on 2 pieces of seasoned toast with eggs and a side of home fries. Two salads- one goat cheese and one fig. One plain and one with shrimp. Super tasty. Started off with a bottle of champagne for mimosas. When time for our cake, Michelle was quick to action and bring plates and utensils. She felt like part of the celebration over just being our server. Really haven't had this level of service or genuine personality at any restaurant before- not even for upscale nights out. We will be back.

When I saw this food truck parked out near the front of my neighborhood I got "eggcited" because I…read morelove eggs. And before I get too far into this I want to say the food was good. The flavors were nice and everything was prepared well. However, and this may be just my opinion but, if you're going to call your food truck "The Fried Egg" perhaps eggs should be a part of the make up of most of you menu items. Given the current menu options I think a better name for this truck would be "The Fried Egg is a $1 add-on option." I mentioned to the young lady taking my order that it surprised me that, given the name of the truck, I would have to pay an up charge for an egg. She relayed my sentiments to the cook, who may have been the manager or owner. Nevertheless, I ordered the Classic Smash Burger and did ask for the fried egg add-on. The food was prepared really quickly and the burger looked perfect. However, the young lady informed me that unfortunately they only had 4 eggs left and that they all fell and broke on the floor before my burger was ready. So she handed me a $1 bill as a refund. Obviously disappointed (and skeptical of the story) I accepted the refund and went on my way. The short of it is that while I was eggstremly disappointed by the lack of eggs, the burger was quite good and the fries were wonderful. I would have given this experience 4 stars, I can overlook the name thing, but not being able to have any eggs from The Fried Egg food truck left me somewhat disappointed.

This was my second time getting a burger at The Fried Egg. It was a perfect smash burger and the…read morefries were equally as good. Fast fresh food and friendly service!

The wait was around 20-30 mins and we were seated on the patio, the place was packed and super busy, so it's a bit loud to try to have conversation. The staff were great and the menu had a great vegan section too. It was a bit cold on the patio, so we started with some hot lattes which was decent. Also got pancakes & bacons, vegan mexicali wrap and size of haus fried (potatoes cubes). Portion size was huge, we could only finish half the food. Everything was delicious & if you get the vegan mexicali wrap, 100% would recommend trying with the hot sauce with it. Food and staff were great, but I am not sure if it was worth 20-30 mins wait and the hassle of parking. Would definitely go back but will not be a regular place for us!
