Amazing service from Raul! He was efficient and patient at the same time. He didn't rush us and came back multiple times to check on us - always with kind words and a smile. Kudos as well to the kitchen staff. Our food was there almost before we closed our menus! read more

Great job serving us , Raul! Attentive and super friendly. Enjoyed having him as our server

We had a lovely brunch at Bill's Café. This location is great. It has a lot of parking available and plenty of outdoor + indoor seating as well. The servers are very attentive and the food comes out super fast. I would say I like this location a lot better than the one on Lincoln for sure (because there is never any parking at the other one lol.) We were helped by a very nice server named Jose Cruz. He was very attentive and provided fast + efficient service. Thank you. :) For food I decided to order the Nutella French Toast. Wow I've never tried the Nutella French toast before but it was delicious! It was also plated nicely and had a great moderate size portion. My friend also loved their dish and said it was a good portion size as well and very filling. This place is perfect for a casual breakfast/brunch experience. One thing I will say is the sausage we ordered was awful. BLEH. lol. It tasted like a vegan/vegetarian sausage instead of real meat to be honest. Everything else was very good, but I would highly suggest skipping the sausage. :) read more

I had a wonderful experience at Bill's Cafe! The food was delicious and came out quickly, but what really made our visit stand out was the excellent customer service. Raul provided outstanding service--he was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. He checked in at the right times and made us feel genuinely welcomed. Thank you, Raul, for making our breakfast experience even better. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

Bill's Cafe is such reliable place for brunch :) I came in for a Sunday brunch and the wait wasn't too bad, probably about 20 minutes. I got the mimosa flight which is just all right imo. I think the highlight here is the food. I got the mini eggs benedict (4/5) and it was great and the hash browns were cooked perfectly. The baked cinnamon roll (5/5) was sweet just like how I want and was a little crispy. It came with syrup but honestly it doesn't really need it. So glad I got this! The servers were very attentive and checked in on us frequently. Will for sure come back again :) read more

Went here for a late brunch date with my boyfriend and had a great time! Always a go-to brunch spot for family and friends, and never disappoints. Since we came a bit later in the day (around 12:30pm), it was not that busy despite being a Saturday. There was no waitlist, and we were seated immediately. Parking was also very easy. Our server was very polite and was very attentive! My boyfriend had their skillet and some buttermilk pancakes. He found them delicious. I had the French toast with a side of scramble eggs. The French toast was fluffy and sweet, I'd totally get it again. Overall a great experience! read more

I've been coming to Bill's Cafe weekly for a while now, and the consistency keeps me returning. The food is always good, and I really enjoy their fitness meals -- fresh berries, lighter options, and nothing that leaves you feeling guilty after breakfast. It's a great way to start the day. Service is consistently great, even when they're busy. Definitely get on the Toast waitlist because weekends can get packed. The patio is a bit cold in the winter, but the inside is cozy and comfortable. They turn tables quickly, and the bottomless coffee is always flowing. A reliable, friendly breakfast spot that never disappoints. read more

Raul is a great server. Food was authentic and flavorful. I'd recommend this place! Service is great. Great job all around. read more

Bill's Cafe - Chorizo con huevos. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - San Jose, California

This place used to be my favorite spot for breakfast, but then other breakfast spots started opening up and since I like trying new places, I don't go here as often anymore. However, once in a while I'll crave a crab cakes benefit and will come here because theirs is the best (you really can't go wrong with it here!). I also like their bread pudding French toast and corned beef hash Benedict. The wait here can get pretty long around 11am, so I usually try to get here before then on weekends. read more

Such a yummy experience here at Bill's Cafe! Was visiting some friends and they were very excited to take me to their old high school breakfast spot! Let me just say it was a great experience and I cannot wait to come back. The prices were decent especially for the quality of food. You pay for the convenience of not worrying about cooking and receiving amazing service from the staff. The staff kept checking in on us and they were super interactive. I felt supported and did not feel overwhelmed by them checking in multiple times. The place seemed to have a busy crowd, but my friend said this was the norm due to it being a great spot to enjoy delicious food! Indoor and outdoor seating available. Definitely check this spot out! read more

Solid brunch! One of my first meals back in the bay and I finally got to check off Bills. Came here on a Monday and was seated right away around 11am. I got the bills skillet which was delicious. I'm a sucker for skillets, just something about potatoes with meat and cheese haha. The vegetables weren't overcooked and mushy, lots of ham, and eggs were cooked perfectly. I got a pancake upgrade which I probably could've done without, was a little dry. Otherwise, hands down my new favorite brunch spot! Will be back again! read more

Our server Jose Cruz was a great server! He sat us promptly and was very attentive at all time.

Been going here for so long but I realized I never wrote a review. The service here is amazing--the server was very attentive. I ordered the crab Benedict, and although it looked small at first, it ended up being really filling. You can also taste the butter they used to make your hash-brown, but I'm also a big fan of their crunchy potatoes. I just love the cozy diner vibes, and they've got the AC blasting, which is perfect. read more

Dunno, does Bill's ever serve a bad meal? I've been here so many times and I haven't seen it if so. We love going here for brunch and when we need a hearty one at that. Even with crowds, they manage to seat you pretty quickly. Service is super fast and they always get my eggs juuuust right. Portions are generous and won't leave you wanting. Love the feeling of sitting outside under the roof there where we can enjoy some fresh air (though the inside is cozy and fine, too.) Bill's - just keep doing what you're doing. We love it! read more

Bill's is an excellent breakfast spot with amazing food and an even better atmosphere. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and came out perfectly. Go for the Chilaquiles The drinks were fantastic, and having a full bar is a huge plus perfect for coffee, mimosas, or a great breakfast cocktail. We grabbed the espresso Martinis Our server Yolanda truly made the experience. She was friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish, making sure everything was perfect without ever feeling rushed. Her positive energy and great service really stood out. Between the great food, awesome drinks, and outstanding service, Bill's easily earns five stars. We'll definitely be back and asking for Yolanda again! read more

I had a great experience at Bill's Cafe, and a big part of that was our server, Jose Cruz. He was attentive without being overbearing, kept everything moving smoothly, and made sure we had exactly what we needed the entire time. Jose had a great attitude--friendly, professional, and genuinely seemed to care about the experience. Our drinks stayed full, the food came out on time, and he checked in at all the right moments. It's the kind of service that makes you actually want to come back. If you get seated in his section, you're in good hands. read more

Great food, great service (super on top of things with the drinks and coffee, food came out very quickly too), we got a table very quickly for 8 people! The Dubai chocolate pancake was surprisingly good, not too dry at all! Perfect sweetness. The Cordon Bleu Omelette special was delicious. And I love the fact they do mini breakfast of all the different breakfast so you can do a half portion, so perfect! Also love their salsa! We always come here when we want a good breakfast, it's really a staple in South San Jose read more

Great breakfast & brunch place. I had my fur baby with me so it was a plus that they were dog friendly and had outdoor patio area. Plenty of seating. We got there about 1045am or so and it was already packed. The staff were friendly and checked in on us. The French toast was thick and tasted ok. The toast got a little hard and dry so I had to drench it with syrup to keep it moist. The potato's and bacon were good and the Belgian waffle tasted great. Overall and great breakfast place. read more

A Tried-and-True Breakfast Favorite!! If you're after a no-nonsense breakfast that hits the spot every time, this place delivers. The menu sticks to the classics--fluffy pancakes, crispy bacon, perfectly cooked eggs--and that's exactly why we keep coming back. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the coffee is always hot. It's not fancy, but it doesn't need to be. Go tos: 1. Country fried steak 2. Corn been hash It's the kind of place where the staff remembers your order and the vibe is warm and familiar. A simple, satisfying way to start your day. read more

Raul is a great server . He is very attentive and always checks on us to see if we need any more food. The servers was great. The food got here fast and overall a good time. read more

What a treat! My colleague and I recently had brunch here, and it was the perfect reward for a little dog-sitting. We were so hungry we went all out, ordering a bunch of dishes: the huevos rancheros, eggs Benedict, and French toast. Everything was cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious. The portions were generous, and the quality was top-notch. I did notice that some of the typical sides are now sold as add-ons, which is a sign of the times with inflation, but it didn't take away from the great food. We were lucky to snag a table outside with my colleague's dog, and it was great that the cafe is so pet-friendly. The staff were welcoming, and the outdoor seating was ideal. If you're looking for a great spot for a delicious brunch with a pet-friendly atmosphere, Bill's Cafe is definitely the place to go. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! read more

Bills Cafe, nothing else needs to be said. I just wanted to comment on the service we had today. We come to Bills at least once a month. Today we had a party of 8 and our server Yolanda was incredibly attentive to us even though we had a large party. Bills is always busy and the service is always five star. But today was beyond 5 stars! read more

Chilaquiles is my favorite breakfast dish. Whenever I go out for breakfast that is the dish I order. Most times I'm very disappointed. I think it's because I compare the dish to my grandmothers authentic dish. Let me tell you, hands down Bills cafe on Cottle Road is the real deal if you want delicious Chilaquiles. Amazing. I wish I could rate it . I now only come to Bills on Cottle Rd when I'm missing Ma's Chilaquiles! Thank you chef! I also want to mention the great service from all the staff making us feel like family. Thank you Raul and George for the great service. read more

Great food and great service. Thank you Jose Cruz for being a great and patient waiter!

Jose Cruz was the best! Very attentive and nice. Food came fast and met all my needs. Delicious food was served.

Food was good, but the waiter RAFAEL WAS VERY RUDE, CANT WAIT FOR ME TO FINISH MY ORDER, rushing me. So when i asked for my toast and fruits , instead of listening, he tried to take my food and about to change it for no reason, good thing Raul told him to leave my food. Yolanda and Raul fix the problem- Enrique Victoria read more
