    Solid pancakes, best if you order just one so the edges crisp up. Potato platter has nice flavor and they come by for endless coffee refills.

    Omelette and pancakes

    Billy's cafe is a good little diner if you're looking for a cheap but yummy option. The overall ambiance is lackluster but the food was fine. I would go back if we are in a pinch but it's not something I would seek out.

    Small old school feel. Excellent breakfasts. Staff was friendly without being overbearing. Food was prepared after order and done in a reasonable amount of time. Cash or local check only. They do have an ATM if you need. Good solid feel good food.

    Billy's is great. Easy, fast, bomb pancakes, syrup. Everybody is laid back, easy going. It's easy and reliable.

    People that give Billy's a bad rating, are the ones that are expecting, idk a Ritz Carlton, high class place I guess?? Let me break it down for you. Billy's is the local, small town, breakfast place. Where the elderly life long friends come in to discuss current affairs, life, reminiscing about the past, have a few cups of coffee and hang out. Complete family atmosphere. Great pancakes and syrup! Easy, quick, reliable. Can get in and out within 20min even if they're packed on Sunday morning after church. I've never had a bad meal here. Well one, lunch. My dad didn't like it. So never ordered lunch again. Breakfast is 100x better than IHOP, VI Can't expect high class when you come here. It's like going to Grandma's house for brunch. Laid back.

    Early Bird menu
    Bill M.

    Stopped for breakfast on my day off. Got here early enough for the Early Bird menu. Got the #6, 2 eggs, hash browns, toast & drink for $4.85 Homey - dinner feel to the place. A lot of regulars and they're all friendly. You can join in the banter going on between the tables, or keep to yourself. If the waitress is busy they'll grab the coffee pot and go around doing refills. Just the kind of place I love to be at. The scrambled eggs were good, and so where the hash browns. But just like other people commented, the hash browns were tooooo greasy. The waitress was competent and friendly, and handled the regulars banter with ease. Just remember - NO credit cards.

    First off the place is cash or check only. It is a small mom and pop kind of place. Breakfast and lunch menu, reasonably priced I had the chicken fried steak omelet and pancakes, pretty good stuff. This is not a yogurt and granola kind of place. No fruit. Not a healthy breakfast but tasty. This factor dropped it to a three.

We said first available seats, which ended up being at the end of the bar. More about that later... I ordered the vegan standard and hubs ordered the banana bread French toast. The server was friendly and the food came out in a timely manner, considering the place was packed. Regarding the vegan standard, it seems they have cut back on the amount of tofu scramble and increased the amount of hashbrowns, which was a little bit disappointing. As usual it was very tasty though! I tried a bite of the hubs French toast and it was VERY unique and tasty! II will be getting that next time. I was disappointed to hear that they haven't brought back the vegan biscuits and gravy, but maybe once again they will! So the food was great but our experience, not so much, based on where we were sitting. I feel like they should not even use the last spot at the bar to seat a patron. Right next to where I was sitting is the place they bring the clean silverware to dry it off, then they would toss it into the silverware holder. The noise was very annoying and they did nothing to try to even be quiet about it. The other thing about that location is the register is pretty much right in your face, like 15 inches directly in front of me and someone was pretty much there the whole time. Other areas of the bar wouldn't be quite so bad, but next time we will wait longer to get a table or sit at the bar top that looks outside instead of at all the workers doing their thing and talking to each other. Other than the location of where we sat this visit, this is still one of our top spots for a yummy vegan breakfast, and we will be back!

Our waitress was polite but mostly absent, no energy and was sitting chatting with coworkers for an extended period of time without checking on us. She didn't come to refill our drinks until all of us had finished eating and we were waiting on our check, so at that point refill wasn't really needed because we were leaving. The food was all clean ingredients but with an unfortunately serious lack of any flavor. I ordered the Avocado Toast which was supposed to have a Chipotle Mayo, couldn't taste it or find it, bread was cold and didn't taste like it was remotely toasted. No seasoning on any part of the dish which was underwhelming. Definitely not worth buying this when this could be made easily at home and taste the exact same, if not better. There are other things on the menu I'd be interested in trying so if I do have a chance to try this place again and have a different experience I will absolutely update my review. This isn't a bad establishment by any means but definitely room for improvement.

The vanilla latte was made iced with oat milk and it was just sweet enough, something about the espresso beans just made it all blend together so well!! The chai was house made and it was SO great, like Christmas in a mug, just phenomenal. The food is different from other breakfast spots around Omaha. The croque miss was the breakfast sandwich special and it blew all other sandwiches out of the water. Thick bread, Dijon mustard, ham, and topped with 2 eggs! WOWOWOWOWOOWOW!! It was so complex and the flavors blended so well together! The only thing I wish there was more of was ham, just one more slice would have been great! The brioche French toast was thick, fluffy, and sweet. I loved the cranberries on top, another dish with great complementing flavors.

After a couple of minutes, I went back up to the counter and asked if they had already started making it, because I wanted to change my order. The kitchen was open, so I said to the cook, "Don't worry about it if you've already started. I know my indecision can impact people, and I don't want to be a problem." He looked at me and said, "No, it's totally fine. Would you like some veggies on the side?" "Yes, that would be amazing," I said, and walked back to my table... and burst into tears. It wasn't just what he said. It was the kind energy in his eyes. I felt someone who took pride in what he was making, and who genuinely wanted people to be happy. I found myself asking, why am I crying? Because in a world where so many people in power feel disconnected, where corporations can make us feel like numbers, being genuinely cared for in a small café reminded me how much I love humans. Most people have love in their hearts and are trying to share it in their own small ways. As the world cracks, these simple things are more meaningful than ever.

They were fairly busy, and honestly our food took a bit to come out, but I am still giving a five due to the overall experience and quality of service. Our server Melannie was fantastic and always present. We did the bottomless mimosa deal (3 out of 4 of us) and she was always coming around asking us what flavor we wanted next when our current was still half full to make sure we got our moneys worth. The champagne might not be the fanciest, but for $20 bottomless mimosas I'll take it. They have fun flavors in addition to the basic ones like strawberry, mango, etc. which adds an element of fun. For food--there were several things I was eyeballing but landed on the spicy chorizo Benny. It was really good, eggs cooked perfect, and came with hashbrowns. Another at our table got the poutine which also looked yummy. I'd say the food portion could have included a bread/toast option, however If brunching in Omaha i'd return to try several things on the menu. The vibe inside is chill, would be more fun sitting outside once the weather warms up. Since I was the one that booked the reservation, the tab got a bit confusing. At first they were taking it off my total, then the server said that hold would come off so I paid for my meal/drinks there. I did end up getting double charged (for both the reservation hold and my meal) which was cleared up with a quick phone call to their establishment---apparently it is a new process they are trying. I do understand though why they wouldn't want to just deduct the hold as then people that don't know how to tip wouldn't tip on the total, which hurts the server.
