Delicious food!! Well worth the wait, plus the service was awesome :) The menu had such a great variety, and everything we tried came out fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. You can tell the staff really cares about making sure guests enjoy their experience. Even though it was busy, our server was super friendly and attentive, always checking in without being overbearing. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a place I'd happily recommend to friends and definitely return to again soon! read more

Visiting Media for the weekend for my niece's graduation. I am so happy we stumbled upon this restaurant via Yelp. I put in the filter for local favorites and Bittersweet Kitchen came up. We had the strawberry fritters, mushroom, spinach, and feta omelette and tuna salad. Everything was delicious and the service was phenomenal. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Now I will say it's a little tight inside but the staff are amazing and the ambiance is welcoming. The food is beyond great with a garden fresh vibe , and my wife is gluten free because she has celiac so the menu and staff were great with this. read more

A friend in NJ loved this place so much we went twice in January! Food is always good and options and combinations are bang'in quality! Cider is good too, but I think the fair trade coffee wins for me! Can't order a wrong thing. I think their tomato soup is a winner and pairs well with their excellent grilled cheese. Ham & cheddar egg sandwich on pineapple bread is a surprising winner, and so is their Southern pileup (buttermilk biscuit topped with over-easy egg and American cheese, smothered with sausage gravy | served with breakfast potatoes. ) Another friend wanted to patronize this place with me last minute. I tried their French onion soup avocado toast and just a straight forward nice meal. Everything is freshly made, tastes good, and is a reasonable price. Can you ask for anything more? Okay, maybe a 2nd bathroom and more space would be really helpful for this popular quality, local establishment. read more

What a great woman owned and woman run business in Media. Not out there frequently but out there whatever I can. Their southern pileup is my favorite and I never deviate. My younger son still talks about their breakfast after being there once read more

10/10! One of favorite brunch spots in Philly. I liked my mean, especially the specialty homemade scone I got. Restaurant can be kids friendly as well. read more

The 20 minute wait for brunch was well worth every minute! My family were in town visiting colleges and daughter found this place. What a find! I had the mushroom bacon and cheese omelet and asked if they could give me a cheese other than blue cheese. Not a problem! And delicious. Perfectly prepared with fresh mushrooms and just right! The house made biscuits are huge, soft and sweet. I think they are covered with a honey butter after baking, but not sure. You can get honey butter for the biscuits if you like. The breakfast potatoes are large cut and very tasty. Diner 2 had the southern mess- I think that's what it was called. A split biscuit covered in delicious sausage gravy, over easy egg and cheese. I tasted the sausage gravy and it was very well seasoned. It's a lot of food along with potatoes and very very good, said Diner 2. Diner 3 had the other omelette special of the day- arugula and caramelized onions. She says it was great. She asked for fruit rather than potatoes and had a cup of beautifully sliced apples, strawberries and grapes. Looked fresh and she said it was great. Diner 4, looking at colleges, ordered the crème brûlée pancakes. Two huge pancakes with vanilla cream between and topped with caramelized sugar. How could this be bad? I would recommend this place and honestly, if she goes to school up that way, I would definitely be back. The menu hAs some beautiful breakfasts and lunches just waiting for me to come back to. read more

Bittersweet Kitchen - Huevos Rancheros - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Media, Pennsylvania

This is such a lovely spot in Media. They have indoor and outdoor seatings (both spaces are not too large), and their breakfast/brunch menu is so good! I had Huevos Rancheros, and my friend had Bittersweet Breakfast. Huevos Rancheros is packed with potatoes underneath the crispy tortillas, topped with eggs over easy, and sauce. It was so good, I finished the whole large servings! My friend said she always get the Bittersweet Breakfast esp for the biscuit. The service was good - efficient, friendly, and attentive. Location is good too. There are enough parking spots around the area so parking was not an issue. I highly recommend this place if you are in and around Media! read more

I am only visiting Media for a short time because I was here for my sister's wedding. My boyfriend and I came here to get some breakfast in the morning--we chose it based on the pictures online. Looks delicious!! When we came in, a very nice waitress sat us immediately. There were plenty of tables, and they really utilized the space that they had. The tables were close together, but not too close that you had to yell in order to have a conversation. There was some abstract art on the walls that did not really have anything to do with breakfast, but was cool nonetheless. Our waitress was very timely and took our orders quickly. We ordered and it came out within 20 minutes, which to me is perfect timing, because it gave me and my mans enough time to chat for a little before housing down what was probably the best breakfast combo I've had in a long time. The portions were perfect and there were lots of gluten free options. I left feeling perfectly satisfied and not too full after eating the whole thing. Not to mention it was DELICIOUS!!! I would have taken a picture but I was too busy indulging in such a yummy meal--it completely slipped my mind. This place was great, the staff were nice, and the food was delicious. Would DEFINITELY recommend to a friend, and will for sure be making another visit here next time I find myself in Media. 10/10 read more

Great food, friendly staff, good vegetarian options and a nice, kid-friendly brunch spot. My kiddos loved the pancakes and I had the stuffed French toast. We were there on a weekday and it was pretty crowded, so I bet it's busy on the weekends. Would definitely return! read more

I like the burgers a lot.The staff are kind of rude though. The overall experience is nice because the restaurant is in the heart of media.

I'm so sad this place isn't closer to where I live!! I was in town for a week for work and I came here twice because it was too good to not come back. I ordered one of the omelettes on the specials menu which was artichoke bacon and mozzarella. It was perfectly cooked and the bacon stayed ridiculously crisp even in the hot omelette. The potatoes were crispy and the side salad was very well dressed. The staff is very friendly and it's like walking into someone's home and having them cook for you. Definitely will be back if I'm in the area again. read more

Took my 88 yr old Mother out for lunch. We had a Cuban sandwich and an omelette. Both were excellent. We topped it off with apple cinnamon fritters. Amazing. I'll be back for sure. read more

Came here with a friend. It's a small intimate type of place. Was greeted with a smile as soon as we walked in. Big plus! Then the waitress came over and explained the specials for the day. She made the accommodations that I needed graciously. Brought us French toast with berry's & whipped cream. It was delicious! They have decaf tea & coffee. HUGE plus for me. I love quaint little places that are nice to their customers and have delicious food to boot. Will definitely come back!! read more

Made a little pit stop for brunch on our way to PHL airport on a Wednesday. There didn't appear to be any outdoor seating on the weekdays and the place was busy but never crowded. No "full" waitress service on the weekdays - order at the front and wait to be seated. Couldn't help but order the Cheese Steak Omelette ($10) while in Philly. Loved the little touch of added beef on top of the omelette and the gooey melted cheese on the inside. Omelette accompaniments were crispy potatoes and a homemade biscuit that paired very well with strawberry jam! Affordable prices and delicious food. Metered street parking wasn't difficult to find on a weekday but I imagine it would be a nightmare during prime time on the weekends. read more

Bittersweet Kitchen - Cheesy Grits, Breakfast Enchilada, Cheesesteak Omelette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Media, Pennsylvania

Super cute with a great staff. Came to PA for a visit and were searching high and low for the classic biscuits and gravy. Found this place had them so off we went. The staff is great, super helpful, and attentive. I had the bacon, potatoes, and eggs and my partner got the longed for biscuits and gravy. We both agree the potatoes were a bit sweet. The rest for me perfect. The biscuits and gravy were not what we are use to. It was good, just not the classic taste. If you're in the area, I suggest a visit. read more

Good food, good service, friendly staff. Tried out this place for breakfast on a Sunday morning, was happy with our choice. Wife and I put our name in, always a good sign when there are people waiting outside. Quoted 30 mins, host asked for my cell, and within 30 mins, got a call from Michelle our table was ready. Took the 30 min wait to walk along State Street. Service was spot on, food was tasty, price was good. I had the special, a cheesesteak omelette, with a side of bacon. Wife had a Grilled Cheese combo, which had a grilled cheese (sourdough bread, cheese, pesto) and a tomato soup, ordered a side of cheesy grits too. All the food was tasty, no salt/pepper needed, ripped it up. Recommended if you are in the area. read more

The restaurant is named bittersweet, but the staff is very sweet. It is a very small café on a beautiful block of small town media Pennsylvania. We waited 15 minutes, but was told it would be a 30 minute wait. I only got eggs and turkey bacon, which was fine. The fruit cup of apples grapes and bananas was delightful as I dislike fruit cups with a bunch of melons. I find the restaurant to be very family especially little children friendly. I love the bathroom. The wallpaper is all recipes from a cookbook. The bright orange consul in the bathroom was just pretty and antique. Jamire had the food and stated it was average. He got very French toast. I cut my daughters pancakes, and I thought that they would be gross. I could not taste of myself as I am cutting back the calories. So the food was just OK but the service was phenomenal. read more

Small cafe, limited seating; food is good, well presented - a bit of a wait, not terrible; friendly staff; sit down only

My partner and I come here all the time. It makes for such an intimate morning date. We enjoy the location, the friendly staff, and accommodating menu. The artwork in the restaurant creates a lovely environment. He really likes the coffee and always finds something new and exciting to try off the menu. I stick to the classic pancakes and side of house potatoes because they're just so good! read more

I've had this place a few times where I feel like it's fair to write a review. Let me start with their biscuits. They have the BEST biscuits ever!! They are unlike any biscuit I've ever had before. No exaggeration what so ever. The biscuits are a little crispy on the outside, fluffy as a cloud on the inside, and flavorful with a tad bit of sweetness--yet they are not sweet. I recommend getting the honey butter with it to make your day brighter. Now that I am done writing a novel just about the biscuits, I usually get the "bittersweet" breakfast; which comes with eggs, potatoes, and their heavenly biscuits. It's a simple yet delicious breakfast like somebody's mama made for you. In my opinion, that's the best type of breakfast. Ohhh, the salad dressing that they use on their mixed greens is to die for. I totally recommend getting a side to try it. It's perfectly sweet yet savory--it's just perfect. I am telling you, this place mastered their sweet to savory ratio. It's impressive in my opinion because they are pretty consistent with the flavours. Last but not least, their staff and owner are very kind and welcoming. Every time we went there we were greeted with kindness. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for good food and a welcoming atmosphere. read more

Always on point and great food for your buck. Will always be one of my favorites and go too

Such a cute place with really good food! My daughter and I had an early morning appointment in Media and wanted breakfast after. We stumbled upon Bittersweet. Brightly lit, cheery space with big windows and a cozy feel. The breakfast was delicious. I stuck with my usual for breakfast ...eggs over easy. This came with a delicious house made biscuit that melted in my mouth. The potatoes were really good (peppers and onions added) and the sausage was also house made and tasty. My daughter ordered the challah stuffed French toast... delicious challah with salted caramel and warm bananas with sweet cream. I had a few bites of this and was kind of blown away. It was delicious. The batter on the French toast was so good and the challah was nicely toasted on the outside with a warm fluffy center. Many times I find these types of orders cloyingly sweet... but not this! It was just right with the salt slightly shining through the caramel. This was a very sweet find. If I need breakfast again in Media, this is my place. read more
