Go to brunch spot in the Mercer County area! Order the Tiramisu pancakes when available!

Lamb gyro & avocado toast
LaLah J.

2nd timer here. Enjoyed the meal and brunch vibes with my mom. First time trying the Saratoga water. The servers were super friendly and helpful in deciding a meal. The wifi password is their number on the receipt

Mocha caramel Iced Coffee
Amandalynn W.

AMAZING!!! This brunch was SO Delicious! The food came out in less than 10 minutes. The coffee was ginormous. I shared it with my fiancé and it felt like we were sharing an old fashion milk shake lol the vibes were immaculate, there's cozy indoor seating and umbrella covered outdoor seating. The service was wonderful. 10/10 overall experience, would recommend, WILL be back again!!

Okay I usually don't give 5 stars for brunch places but what put it over the top is how clean and nice this place is. My only negative is that it's a bit tight inside and it's not a big place. If it were me I would take away one of the tables to give the other tables space. The food was good as you can expect for breakfast which is what my family and I got. Tip: Make a reservation or you might not get a seat. This place stays busy from open to close

Croissant French toast wouldn't get Benedict again. People were really nice and the ambiance was cuter pretty big portions

Uhm hello! Let these pictures serve as my review. Probably the best breakfast/brunch I've had. Small place. Make a reservation or you'll be waiting. Place was great. Friendly staff. Food was great. These guys need a bigger location

Chicken BLT sandwich
Aleksandar K.

Local spot with nice patio (beware of bees!!!) but overall Food/drinks: Sausage and gravy Benedict 3.5/5: good gravy and sausage sauce which was filling but will probably try some of their different Benedict options next time Chicken BLT 3/5: good portion and the truffle fries size was nice but the chicken was a bit bland/ dry for my liking Matcha latte 3/5: standard matcha latte

Can Iced Coffee
Domine S.

I highly recommend this place! It's not very large but the food is delicious! The drinks are different & the coffee is good! I had the cannoli French toast & I'm in love! It was perfection ! Our waitress was kind & effective, everyone was ready to help and the food came out EXPEDITIOUSLY!

Deprina G.

Nice little spot with outdoor seating. It was ok. I haven't been back since we went. This review has been in my drafts. We live in Ewing and always try to explore other areas. I would say check it out for your self. The waffle just was nasty to me. You know how it should have a lil hint of vanilla or sweetness -something! But it didn't. The stuff we ordered I could make myself at home 10x better. The location and atmosphere is nice so may just go hang out with friends and drink

Pork Tostadas
Melisa P.

This place is a great spot for breakfast! The food is delicious, the staff is friendly and it's a very cute place! Food always comes out so quickly. Highly recommend going here for brunch with some friends or family! I got the pork tostadas last time and they were flavorful and a very generous portion. Would order again!

Overnight Chai Oats with honey, coconut, and fresh fruit

This place is PHENOMENAL! Such friendly staff and amazing food. They always have fun new items on the specialty menu and even their regular menu is filled with fun and delicious breakfasts! The cinnamon roll pancakes are a MUST. They come with whipped icing on top. To Die For!! This place does get crazy busy so definitely recommend a reservation. The perfect place to take people and create new memories!

Lemon RIcotta Donuts.
Emma G.

The reputation is deserved. After a mediocre dinner the night before, my top tier chums and I needed a comeback for breakfast. I noticed this highly rated establishment not too far from our Airbnb, and that was that. Cafe Seventy Two is on a pretty busy thoroughfare and easy to spot. We stopped by shortly after they opened (that was also a consideration - we looked at a few places in Lambertville but we're unapologetic early birds so if you're not opening your restaurant before 9AM dot dot dot), secured both a parking spot right by the entrance and a table inside quickly. They did have a pleasant looking outdoor area in front too, but the siren song of air conditioning was too strong on this particular morning. I saw no reason to get cute, and went with my favorite breakfast entrée, the classic Eggs Benedict. Delicious and hit the spot in a way that only happens if you were a bit naughty the prior day with a few birthday cocktails. There was honestly nothing that truly set this apart from the myriad of Benedicts on brunch menus throughout the lands, but it didn't have to be particularly complicated - it was dictionary definition perfection. The home fries that accompanied the dish were excellent as well. At $13, the price point is competitive for the area (especially taking into consideration the Delaware River tourist traps just to the north). We also continued our breakfast tradition and strategically ordered something sweet to share. This time we selected an option from the specials menu, the lemon ricotta donut holes, which I believe came with a blueberry compote or close to it. Absolutely awesome. Optics-wise we were initially a little confused (I think we were all expecting something more yellow befitting the lemon designation), but once we bit into the donuts, everything made sense. I imagine the key to this item is not overcooking/frying (however donuts are magically prepared for us), and these definitely were not. The texture was excellent, and the compote paired perfectly. Unsurprisingly, the service was fantastic as well. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and everything we ordered came out in a timely fashion. We weren't in a rush, but we were still in and out of there pretty quickly. It was starting to fill up a bit as we left, so we may have also been the beneficiaries of an early mealtime. If you can't wait an extra hour or two to feast on the weekend (or even if you can), this is a strong recommend.

You can eat there but I chose not to. Nothing wrong with it. It's for a few tables and you can eat in. I opened it up. Smelled good and took a bit it was delicious. This sub was fantastic. Bread hearty but not too hard. Meat tender, peppers, lettuce and tomato just enough to complement the meat. Same with dressing. I got a small which was big but maybe I should have the medium. It was gone too soon. I'd get this again in a minute. It was so good! I'd travel for it. That's how good. If I'm ever around here again I'll try something else.

I stopped by my local Jersey Mike's this week -- which is something I do regularly. I ordered a viral sandwich that turned out a little messy, but that wasn't the issue. The same person who made my sandwich also rang me up -- without changing his gloves. He touched the register screen, bags, counters, and who knows what else, all with the same gloves he used to make my food. Then he went right back to preparing sandwiches... still no glove change. So I calmly walked over to the manager, who had already seemed pretty dismissive when I walked in. I could tell that he wasn't interested in any niceties with me, since he was saving them for the non-minority make that walked in after me. I said, "You may want to let him know that he needs to change his gloves." The manager asked, "Why?" I explained, "Because he made my sandwich, checked me out, touched the screen, and then went back to making sandwiches." His response? "Did he touch cash?" I replied, "Why does that matter? He's spreading germs." But it was clear he didn't care -- not one bit. That will be my last visit to that location. Period.

The bagels are actually a bit better than the former, with my preferred outer crispness and chewier texture within and less sweet dough than before.

EBS gives my favorite local bagelnosherie (Bagel Train in Yardley) a run for its money, and is less expensive. 5 Bagel Stars for these young entrepreneurs!

It had been sitting the whole time. Then I get home and open my sandwiches and the amount of bacon on them is actually laughable. (Image attached) this place is terrible. Would never recommend to anyone. How they have a decent rating is beyond me. 0/10 stars. Terrible bagels for Jersey standards. Also owner is response to comments is unprofessional and shows how they care for customers. Spend your money else where.
