Omelet Shoppe - A Little Slice of Road-Trip Americana There isn't much in Beckley when it comes to very early breakfast before hiking New River Gorge NP, so we picked Omelet Shoppe mostly because it was a few blocks from the hotel and, honestly, how wrong can you go with eggs and bacon? Turns out: wonderfully right. This diner is pure road-trip gold, the kind of place where time slows down just enough for the coffee to taste better. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, greeting locals with hugs, warm questions about their families, and the kind of genuine familiarity that makes you wonder if you've accidentally walked into a reunion. And somehow, they made us feel like we were long-lost regulars too. It was all very wholesome and slightly magical. The food was simple, satisfying, exactly what breakfast should be when you're about to climb, wander, and sweat your way through a national park. So good, in fact, that we came back every single morning. Because why mess with perfection? A true little gem, comforting, unpretentious, and warm in all the right ways. read more

Came in when visiting family for the holidays as we wanted something simple and comforting. (This place feels and looks like a Waffle House if you know, you know.) Pros Quanity- My omelet, home fries, toast, and coffee were about $13, so very affordable for some greasy spoon- type breakfast. Cons Service- Our service was spotty, and not the warmest, but can be understandable. Taste- I may have gotten the wrong thing, but overall there wasn't a whole lot of flavor (until I added hot sauce...that helped). Speed- Came in about 8:30, and it was 1/4- 1/2 full, but still took about 35 minutes to get our food after ordering. Not the slowest, but could have been better. Overall could have been a worse experience, and if you are wanting some quick, simple, Waffle House- style food, this is a good place to check out! read more

Beckley Omelet Shoppe - Meat Lover Omelet w/ no cheese, home fries, and toast. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Beckley, West Virginia

Good food. Great service. Definitely recommend. Prices is just a little high or I would eat here more. lol For 2 eggs, ham, toast, and potatoes, 13 bucks. Then add the gravy and biscuits and a drink. 19 bucks is just too much. After tip 25.00 that's a lot for breakfast. read more

Giving 2 stars bc the hashbrown & biscuit was pretty good. But what isnt good is NOT telling people they're still paying for an egg when all they want is a dang sausage biscuit. If you want a sausage biscuit, you're getting charged for a sausage AND egg. And go ahead & get that side item bc you're getting charged for that too, even if you do not want it. Anyway, we probably wont be throwing our monies here again. Check out the amazing extra they threw in.... read more

Beckley Omelet Shoppe - It was awesome watching the bf pull this long hair out of his mouth - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Beckley, West Virginia

Yep, three stars is about all I can give. I'll start with the worst: The pancakes were awful... like rubber, and flat, they had no fluff to them whatsoever(way over mixed the batter?)... probably the worst pancakes I've had at any breakfast joint. Staff wasn't very friendly either, they did say welcome but the welcome is hard to believe when it comes with a frown or scowl. The only smile I got was after I took pictures of the menu and they handed me my to go order(realized I was going to leave a review maybe or just happy I was leaving, lol?). The most frustrating part for me was trying to place an order online... their full menu is not on there for some reason... that includes both menu link and order link. The only way to see their full menu is by going into the restaurant and looking at their physical menu. The good parts? The restaurant is laid out Waffle House style(which I like), where the cooks and waitstaff are on the same line, in the front of the house... so you can watch your order being made right in front of you, if you so choose. I ordered two Ollie's Platters, which comes with two eggs, choice of meat(ham, bacon or sausage), one side(wide selection of sides) and a waffle or 2 pancakes or 2 slices of French toast. My order was made to my specifications... scrambled eggs cooked well for one and over easy for the other, and crispy bacon and hash browns. Prices are average(maybe a little higher) for a breakfast place. Restaurant does get a lot of business and I'll probably go back at some point when I don't feel like cooking at home... unless I can find a better breakfast place to go to. read more

The food is very standard. We need a waffle house desperately in this area. The service at places like these is always great. The environment is always fun, especially late at night or early in the morning. read more

Double Down Cheesesteak is the best in Beckley! Service is great and the staff very efficient and friendly.

Stopped here for a late dinner on a ridiculously long road trip. We seated ourselves and were given sticky menus. That's not a complaint -- it wouldn't have felt like a 24 hour diner if they hadn't been. The menus were bright and easy to read which is much appreciated from someone who now needs readers. Waitress was super sweet. She wiped down the table and brought us big glasses of water and silverware. She kept our waters filled and even brought us extra ice without us asking. I ordered the Spanish omelet with hashbrowns and biscuit. Omelet was good with a generous helping of salsa on top and lots of American cheese. Hashbrowns were good but could have been a little crispier. Son ordered the chicken platter and enjoyed his two chicken breasts with sides. Prices were reasonable. Overall a great experience and restful stop on our journey. read more

A place which is always busy means it must be good and this place is no exception. The food is good and cooked to order. The staff is friendly and efficient. My meal was cooked exactly like I asked for it. read more

Great food. Always friendly and amazing service. It's our favorite place to eat in Beckley.

First of all I have to say if you're familiar with and like Waffle Houses then you'll really like Beckley Omelet Shoppe because they are basically carbon copies of each other ( same layout, same menu, same size ) We ordered the Waffle Breakfast & the Cheesesteak Omelet. Both were excellent with nice sized portions. In my opinion even better than Waffle house Waffles. The service we received was above average & the prices were more than fair ( 2 meals, 2 drinks with 2 small add ons ) for $ 27.20. read more

Hashbrowns were swimming in oil, and the side salad was stale iceberg lettuce. However, others in my group enjoyed their lunch.

Florentine Omelet was delicious! Meat lovers omelet was stuffed with deliciousness Service is great! read more

I'm not giving 5-Stars for the food, but for the Institution. The Omelet Shoppe is a Beckley landmark. Generations of locals and I-64 travelers (like my wife and I) have dined here. My wife and I wish to thank and hope God's blessings on all the staff for sacrificing their Christmas Holiday to serve us weary travelers on Christmas night. Now the food is not gourmet. It is great comfort food served fast and hot in a Mom & Pop-owned "Waffle House"-style joint. Our waitress never let our coffee mugs go empty. BTW, she made a fresh pot of decaf coffee specifically for us. She was warm & charming as we thanked her for sacrificing her Holiday. I had the Country Boy Omelet: sausage, hashbrowns, onions and cheese covered in milk sausage gravy. I asked for the biscuit as a side which was covered in more milk sausage gravy!! I'm a milk sausage gravy nut, this entire order was heaven for me. My wife had the Western Omelet: Ham, onions, bell peppers, and cheese with a spicey salsa on the side. I ate the spicey salsa atop my sliced tomatoes. She loved her omelet regardless. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming and friendly to everyone entering within. These Mom & Pop restaurants are becoming rarer. Enjoy while this great place is still around. read more

Very good breakfasts. Omelet was nicely fluffy. Service was excellent, coffee refills without asking. Price is very reasonable.

Definite hole in the wall, but don't pass it by. My dad and I went here for breakfast before a day of hiking--we wanted a local spot and decided not to be scared away by the reviews. Sometimes the shabby spots are the best. Now "the best" is certainty a stretch here--it was mostly good. Coffee was strong, service was friendly. My potatoes were well done as I asked and honestly delicious. Biscuit and eggs were average. Bacon was pretty gross, though, as it was thin, greasy, and basically dissolved in my mouth. Diners shouldn't have bad bacon. Overall, I'd say give it a shot--just skip the bacon. read more

An absolute must stop. My biscuit skillet was absolutely amazing, and I've never had better service in my life. Imagine eating at Waffle House, but good. read more

Dirty bathroom. Good corn beef hash. Less than Waffle House. Drive to Bob Evans which is 1/2 mile away.

The premier roadside breakfast joint in the world. Great service and spot on short order cookin! I've loved this place since I was a kid!

Had to take a star away...been coming here for years and came the other evening and food was great...came late after a show tonight and place was dirty and unbussed tables and had to ask for everything. Menus,silverware etc..service was not as good and food was so greasy you couldn't eat it..swimming in grease! Forgot to bring sides till I had ate and my friend had already ate theirs as well..seemed to be very mediocre all around. I been coming here close to 30 years easy and never had bad food..only once before I can remember bad service. read more

I was pleasantly surprised. The veggie omelette was delicious. Had a side of sweet ham that was so tasty. Excellent coffee. Service was with a smile. Very clean. Don't judge a book by its cover! read more

Let me start buy saying the food was not horrible! The frys where way over cooked and the sandwich was soggy and no pickles.With that being said I've been ordering to go orders from here for several years, but last night I noticed the price was a bit high. So I looked at my receipt and on it I found two new surcharges! Covid-19 surcharge and takeout surcharge! Some may agree with this but I do not ! Buy the time I paid taxes and both surcharges it was an extra $3.30 ! read more

Food was good waitresses were friendly. When you walk in it is self seating, we will definitely revisit.

Looks like it used to was some other sort of breakfast establishment that has been repurposed for omeletting but the menu and decor still speak of waffler times. Needed some breakfasts and an omelette sounded good so, with minor misgivings, here I am. Wasn't exactly sure what I wanted but eggs and sausage gravy were important but nothing real biscuity since I was going to on the road all day... country boy omelette fit the bill: sausage, hash browns, cheese, and onion inside w/ sausage gravy outside plus grits, toast, hot coffee, and iced water. Eggs were fluffy but firm with a whole 'nother small plate breakfast inside. Sausage gravy smooth and lightly peppered with bits throughout. The whole thing came together nicely and could be eaten with a spoon. Big bowl of grits had a nice firm texture, no grit, no soup, just little bits of corns. BTW: toast comes buttered, need to ask for dry next time. read more

Great service. Crowded but flowed smoothly. Great food. Our waitress was absolutely amazing and our food was awesome. This place was packed but they got the food out quick. Everyone was very nice. read more

We usually eat here twice per week. Watch your ticket because they offer specials like free drink with purchase of a sandwich. Look your ticket over because we got home and discovered we had been charged. Tuesday is half price omelets and their omelets are great. We had disturbing experience yesterday because the cook was more interested in being on her phone. Half my food was on my husband's plate and half his on my plate. Food did not come out all at once so food is getting cold. And it was slow time of day. Their coffee is always fresh and hot. We are going to give them a break for awhile and maybe try again in few months. read more

Use to be a favorite place to eat but, not anymore. Service is slow and no longer as friendly, our order was up & the ditzy waitress was busy flirting. Got my Philly cheese steak sandwich ,barely had enough steak to be a steak sandwich. The bacon they have now is not bacon, it's like a pork by product.. read more

Omelet Shoppe is always on point! The kindest waitresses and great food. It's always a good feeling being there

Anything that is open when my cravings hit is okay with me. I wasn't expecting much at 6:30 a.m. from a place that looked like a downgraded IHOP, but I was hungry and it looked like it would be easy on my pocket. Our server was nice and kept coming by to refill our coffee and water. Don't get that a lot at establishments like this. I ordered the mushroom omelet with cheese and my coworker got the corned beef hash and scrambled eggs. Sitting by the counter lets you see your food being prepared. I already knew the majority of the items on the menu wouldn't be fresh and I've worked in a restaurant before. I know how it is. I still couldn't help but laugh when I saw the cartons of liquid egg being poured into pans coated in butter. Felt like a diner back at home. I didn't understand what other Yelpers meant when they said the ingredients would be inside the omelet, but then I received mine and it all made sense. They cook the egg, place the mushrooms and cheese on the inside, and fold the egg over. That's it. Not quite an omelet, but it tasted alright. Coworker's corned beef hash was very very greasy, but she ate it and said it was good. If we ever get the munchies in the middle of the night, we'll be back... Beckley doesn't have much else. read more

It was great. The place was jumping @ 12:30 am. Our waitress was amazing. The food was good the bathroom was clean!

Was busy on a Saturday morning to be expected but the service was still very good. I was asked many times if I needed anything. The sausage gravy skillet with hash browns and eggs on top was phenomenal. read more

Lots of food for the price. Service was good. Clean place but typical Waffle House type food nothing more.

An egg-cellent place to get some great food. I was there during the late breakfast rush, with all the tables full and the counter. Still they were able to get me my food fast and correct. The cooks were working as a team and all of my meal came together at the same time, so my eggs and hash browns were both still hot off the grill when given to me by server Janey. read more

Omg, this place is old fashioned cooking done right! The waitress told us their sausage gravy was "an eleven" and she wasn't exaggerating. Best I've had in a restaurant ever. read more

Traveling from Ohio to NC, we stopped by The Omlette Shoppe to have lunch. Entering, there were 6 sitting at the bar and 3 at a table. Standing at the door one of the patrons said to seat ourselves and the server would be by. We went to the first table and that was dirty. Went to the second table and that was dirty, and finally sat at the third table. There were 2 waitresses on duty. We waited while one waitress took 5 minutes to restock styrofoam cups, never looking up. The other waitress was walking through the dining room but never stopped by. The stocking waitress after finishing went to her tables to check on refills. Again never acknowledging us. The other waitress went to a table that sat 10 minutes after we sat and took the order of her regular friend. We have no been sitting at our table without even an acknowledgement or hello. I made eye contact with one of the cooks hoping he would send someone our way , but turned away. After 20 minutes sitting, we got up to leave. One of the regular at the bar said"You folks haven't eaten yet". I replied " Hell, we haven't even been served yet". I can understand if it was busy, but it was not. The waitresses chose to be lazy, and did not want to serve any longer. Avoid this Place ! read more

My husband, son and I stopped here one morning for breakfast and we were impressed by the food and wait staff. My son only ever eats super crispy not burnt bacon and this place was the only place that got it right! My omelette was loaded with ham, cheese and potatoes and flavor and was husband couldn't stop saying how great the hash was! We loved the juke box! Someone started playing 'take me home, country roads' the whole place started to sing! Great experience! I'm giving the four stars because as some of the other reviewers stated, they do have flies flying around...wasn't too happy about that. read more
