I've always loved coming here with my husband this place has been part of our anniversary tradition for years. The food is great, and the staff has usually been so friendly and attentive. Stacy especially has always made us feel welcome. But today was honestly disappointing. When we politely asked our server, Maddy, for napkins, she rolled her eyes and walked off before we even finished talking. It caught me off guard and made me feel uncomfortable. When my husband mentioned it to the shift lead, Jennie, Maddy came back and tossed the napkins on the table in front of her. Jennie witnessed it and confirmed what she saw. The whole situation created such an awkward atmosphere that it completely changed the energy of our morning. They applied a small discount, but that didn't fix how embarrassed and upset I felt. This was supposed to be a special day for us, and instead, I left emotional and disappointed. It's really sad because we've always had great experiences here. One person's attitude shouldn't ruin what's otherwise a lovely restaurant, but unfortunately, it did today. read more

I used to go to this place religiously, my entire family loved this place. Not anymore with the last two times I've gone within the past months, I've had hair in my country fried steak gravy and in their ranch dressing on two different occasions. Totally not the same anymore, look at your food before you eat it. read more

I had high hopes for Breakfast Shack. Unfortunately, the food was just not great. I ordered an omelette and what came was most certainly a scramble. The toast was heavily smeared with margarine, not butter, which was extremely off putting. Hashbrowns weren't bad but had a ton of pepper in them, which I don't mind, but it was odd. Ingredients felt very cheap and cheese wasn't even melted on top of my "omelette". The ambiance was also a little odd. It's definitely country themed, with loud music playing with lyrics like "and the waitress left her number on my check with a heart around it". The service was outstanding, all of the waitresses were so exceptional and kind. I just wish the food matched the service! read more

Quaint local breakfast spot we found in the area. Shared the avocado toast which was very good. I also ordered the loco moco with spam- kahuna plate. The beef patty was nice with the smothered gravy however the rice used was more a rice pilaf, not a long grain rice so to me it was a faux loco moco. Still good but the rice pilaf stopped me from eating most of it. Otherwise great little spot with a ton of breakfast options on their menu. read more

We are from out-of-town and wanted to try food at this restaurant. Restaurant hours indicated it closes at 2 pm. We got there at 1:17 pm and doors were closed. You should just say closed at 1 pm!!! Very disappointed read more

Food: best brunch/breakfast place in loma linda/redlands area! This definitely beats Carolyn's cafe by 100%. I've come here multiple times, the most recent being today morning after my long night shift with my bf. He got southern comfort, which was alright. But I got egg benedict, both their Cali benedict and crab cake benedict are so delicious! Egg is perfectly poached everytime, hollandaise sauce is generous and rich and buttery, the crab cake is warm and well seasoned with good amount of crab on each bite. Their portion sizes are huge and I always end up taking the leftovers home Price: each benedict it around $14-18, other dishes also range around there. Given that big portion size and I end up eating their food for 2 meals, I'd say definitely worth the cost Ambiance: traditional American diner vibe, clean with rustic amd wooden interior designs. Bigger inside than I thought with many tables and bar area. Busy on weekend mornings but not crazy, I was always able to grab seats in 5-10 minutes Service: wow the waitresses are always so friendly, they have beautiful smiles. I realized one third way into my meal today that I had actually received a wrong order, which was fine since it tasted good anyway haha. But when I mentioned it to the waitress, she apologized and just gave me a whole new free meal with correct order! I got to keep the other meal still and took it for to go. This is some next level service that I have not experienced before, thank you so much Parking: there is ample street parking on each side of the road next to the restaurant, free without meter, never had issues finding a spot. One time when the place was really crowded, I walked 3minutes down the street from my parking to the restaurant, but no complaints here read more

We stopped here for breakfast on Labor Day after our weekend getaway to Big Bear Lake. Our party of six was promptly seated in an indoor/outdoor area with large open windows. I ordered the cinnamon roll bread pudding and it was delicious and filling! My daughter got the pancakes and eggs - the pancakes were huge!!! Service was decent and the decor was delightful! I appreciated the veterans discount. read more

Excellent food, great variety of food, family ambience and outstanding customer service.

Sad to say it seems like this place has really gone downhill. My wife and I have been coming here for a long time, and today we noticed that they have a B from the health department. I looked up the reason as we sat there waiting for our food, and all of the issues seemed to have to do with temperatures in the kitchen. Ok. Things happen. But then we got our coffee, and it was lukewarm at best. Next came the food, and it all was barely above room temperature. Not that this is related to temperature issues in the kitchen, but one would think that if they're having those issues in the back, they'd want to address them in the front. The food was fine, but nothing was hot. On top of that, our waitress was not polite or accommodating, and we waited our entire meal for a refill of coffee which never came. Suffice it to say, we will likely not be coming back until we have heard for sure that things have changed. In a town with lots of breakfast options, a restaurant really needs to go above and beyond to stand out. Hoping things change here. :( read more

First time in the area and came across this jewel. The restaurant is clean and the service is great. We went on a Sunday morning and it was pretty packed. Even though it was packed, the employees were still very nice and friendly. For you Islanders out there, they have a Loco Moco plate and you can have Spam added for a little extra. I prefer a little bit more gravy but I will ask next time. The California Benedict was very good too. There's a small parking lot,but lots of street parking. There's a nice little self sustainable shop down the street with nice people there too, where you can stroll around while waiting for a table. Hey folks, please remember when visiting small businesses that we are not just customers but guests and please remember that manners matter. That's all I ask. Thank you all for your support of small businesses. read more

I come to this spot pretty often because the food and service are usually great. The staff has always been friendly, and it's one of those local places that feels comfortable and consistent. But during my last visit, I saw something that really didn't sit right with me. A couple at a nearby table asked their server for something simple, and the way she reacted came off rude and dismissive. You could feel how uncomfortable it made the whole table -- honestly, even a few people around seemed to notice. It's rare to see that kind of attitude here, which is why it stood out. I've always liked this place, but I hope management addresses situations like that. This restaurant has always had great people working here, and it would be a shame to let one person bring down the experience for everyone else. read more

Consistently good food. Service is friendly and prompt. Vegan/vegetarian options. Only down side is no seating /shade while you wait

Okay so I came here at 12:00 they told me I was going to be sat in 10/15 min which I don't mind it's literally 12:45 and I still haven't been sat yet mind you it was just myself... Sadly I waited my whole 1 hour lunch waiting to not get called or seated what a disappointment!!!!People in the front desk need to be more aware! read more

Found this breakfast restaurant after the wifey and I did our weekly stop by the Redlands Farmer's Market. Food was amazing I would like to add. Everything on the menu is worth the try. Portions are large compared to other places I have been to. My go to meal is the Meathead Tom-Omolette which is very delicious, while the wifey loves their steak and eggs with a side of biscuits and gravy. Our servers were the best. After coming here a few times our faces were known. Sometimes it's about a 30 min wait to be seated but definitely worth the wait. What's so different about this spot is the fact the service is fast, consistent and always ready ro refill your champagne glasses and and coffee. As for the restaurant layout, I love it. It reminds me of country diners that provides real down home ambiance. As for parking, you may have to park on the street or a parking lot adjacent to the restaurant. We will always be here for breakfast. Before I forget, they do support Veterans with a very nice discount. Semper Fi...... read more

Good food and service. Friendly staff! Good variety on the menu. Breakfast is the best

This place was busy when I went for breakfast which always makes me think it's gonna be good. I got the country fried steak smothered in their gravy and it was delicious! Huge portions and friendly service that was fast! Ambiance definitely gives old diner vibes and I love it. If I'm in the Redlands area, I'd definitely come here again for breakfast! read more

Service was great, very kind staff. Cute location, however the food just didn't do it for us. The biscuits and gravy were missing flavor. My eggs were good but I was given the smallest amount of country potatoes. read more

It was a perfect morning/ afternoon stop in for brunch to celebrate Dad! The wait was moderate (35mins) and we had a hiccup when they called our name but was quickly recovered and sat us to order promptly. Mimosas were a must and the most amazing bloody Mary's we were all ravenous so we ordered what was suggested. The breakfast burritos, one deep fried and covered with breakfast gravy and the mother clicker I think it was called. A tenderized chicken breast covered with the most amazing bread crumbs and the perfect amount of gravy covered it. The breakfast potatoes were perfect, biscuits and gravy were awesome. We can't wait to go back again. The food was so good and the waitresses were so nice. It was the perfect casual, southern feel place to fill your belly with the most scrumptious food ever. Well done!!! read more

Today, we walked into the Breakfast shack, the lady at the register was very so rude, and very unbecoming of hostess. I can't begin to explain how bad the customer service was, but I will never return, and highly advise others to go somewhere else more friendly. read more

If you want ungodly portions and a typical 2000 calorie american breakfast, then Breakfast Shack is your place to be. The waits get long on weekends and the food is good, sweet and simple. The country fried steak and gravy was heavenly. Just salt on salt and savory on savory. And each bite as good as the next. The fried steak itself was actually decent quality unlike many other country fried steaks you might find at some random breakfast place. The portions are generous so you could easily make 2 meals out of everything here. If you want pancakes with your breakfast, you should be warned that they're the size of car tires. They're huge and soak up syrup like a parched houseplant in the middle of the desert. Are they the best pancakes ever? Not yet, but they're pretty freaking big. So all in all, this is a solid breakfast spot with good prices, just be prepared for a wait if you come on the weekend read more

After a couple of visits spread far apart, I'm very satisfied with this operation. Expect a wait list. It's quite popular. On both occasions, I was with my father, and we got the same table. I'd love to try a sandwich or something different, but so far, it's been early mornings for breakfast. Parking in the lot is tight, and I recommend parking on the street. The wait wasn't bad on either trip and the staff are all fun and have good attitudes. The menu itself is pretty deep if you look at it too long. I've found I keep changing my mind as I read the descriptions, then narrow it down to three. Then flip a coin. No coin involved, but you get the idea. My first time I got the pastrami benedict, with country potatoes (includes onions and bell peppers). I found everything perfectly cooked but thought yellow mustard might be a better choice than spicy brown. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. Corned Beef Hash sounded good to Dad that first time. However, Dad got the regular benedict this time, and it came with three eggs! 'Cause odd numbers look better. My expansion took me to the so-called Kickin' Chicken and Biscuits, which features Cajun spiced chicken tenders and their scrumptious Biscuits and Gravy. About those biscuits... fresh, moist (how many times have you had hardtack at other restaurants?), and amazing gravy. 5* a few dashes of hotsauce made the chicken really kick. Dad enjoyed his eggs, and the sauce looked excellent. Maybe his potatoes were a tad overcooked? Coffee is really good here, and a big mug usually does me right, no refill to date. Prices are moderate, but they deliver in both quantity and quality. read more

Breakfast Shack - California eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redlands, California

Been eating here since they opened. Today we split a sandwich since the portions are large. Well we asked for an extra plate. That's going to cost you an extra $2. I guess soap to wash it has gotten extremely costly. I guess if you look somewhere on the menu it states extra plates are two dollars more. Would have been nice if the waitress could have at least told us of the extra charge. We only got the plate for the convenience of splitting the meal. That will be the last time for a while for a visit back to Breakfast shack. read more

Upon entry we were greeted with a smile and everything seemed fine. Once sat we ordered coffee and asked for a minute to look over the menu. When they brought our coffee I had asked for two glasses of water, which was never brought to the table til a while after we had gotten our food. After placing our order it took quite a while, the restaurant didn't seem busy enough to grant such slow service and throughout our meal we seen our waitress that was also the hostess chatting and laughing with another table. Customers that had finished were leaving while new ones waited at the door to be seated. After waiting 30-45 minutes for our food, a different server had brought another table's order. We then had to wait an extra 15 minutes to receive our order. The food was honestly quite mediocre and cold. The rice for the Moco Loco seemed like prepackaged microwave rice and very bland. The beef patty was the best part of the dish and even then it wasn't seasoned. My mother had ordered a bagel sandwich with country potatoes. The potatoes were cold and seemed like they were made the day before. We then waited a little over 5 minutes to get any help, which the busboy was kind enough to take the plate back and warm the food, most likely microwaved because the potatoes were then dry and the complimentary orange slice was hot. This was then when we asked the same busboy for our waters and he kindly brought us the glasses. We then enjoyed our meal, at least tried to with what we were given. We were then never checked on by our server or any of the others walking by to ask for a refill on coffee or water. Overall the visit was not great and the food was mediocre at best and definitely not worth the price we were charged. read more
