Fried green tomatoes
Rosy F.

Great and friendly staff. Large portions for breakfast. The funky monkey cakes (pancakes) and fried green tomatoes were phenomenal!

the breakfast menu
Pat M.

This is the 2nd Canopy Road Cafe that we've dined at in Tallahassee and each has been excellent! The first was on Apalachee and this one was at Capital Circle. We were there early on a Sunday morning and while it was already crowded, we didn't have a wait. The food was delicious! We started with a basket of biscuits, then had orders of omelettes and French Toast. Everything was prepared well and coffee and tea were excellent! It's pretty cool that these restaurants were started by FSU students. They obviously saw the need for breakfast spots and it looks like they now have 5 locations. Next time down here we need to visit another one!

It's ight for a quick bite. Well, our waiter was a little standoffish... he was there but not really. Someone else served us our food. Husband enjoyed his burrito. My skillet was good. I got bacon in it though and it was extremely fatty and I did not like that. Sourdough was good. Hot tea was good. Could use a little TLC and cleaning but it was a good spot.

Great service and atmosphere. The food considered healthier and also tasty. A cafe will visit again when in the area.

Buffalo Chicken Omelet
Emily G.

I came here a few weeks ago and I was SO impressed! This is the cutest breakfast cafe in Tallahassee! So why is this place so special?! 1. Awesome food- I ordered a Buffalo chicken omelet with home fries and a biscuit. The food came out quickly and tasted delicious! I was really impressed by the ability to have your omelet made with egg whites. Plus this omelet was filled with multiple cheeses which perfectly complimented the hot chicken. Home fries were crisped to perfection and the biscuit was equally create. 2. Creative menu-from the omelets to the pancakes, I want to try everything on this menu! Great job at making your food delicious but also fun! 3. Great space-there is both outside and inside seating. I always appreciate some outside seating during this COVID pandemic! Overall, this is a great place and I will definitely be coming back soon! Keep in mind when you come that the parking is very limited and the inside seating is a bit crammed if you are nervous about indoor seating, definitely opt for outside. But outside only consists of two person tables. Staff also wear masks, so that's a plus!

This is the third location of this local breakfast/lunch chain I've visited. The food is consistently creative, delicious and satisfying. This particular store lacks the ambiance of what I assume to be their original location, on Monroe, and seems a bit more crowded than the one on Apalachee Parkway, but the food and service are 100% on point. We were warmly greeted and immediately seated. The server did an awesome job, from start to finish. Great cup of local Lucky Goat coffee. I had the monte cristo with a fruit cup on the side side. There's no way I could eat it all, even though it was absolutely delicious. My wife had the breakfast burrito with a side of hash browns, which was also fantastic... and very filling. (Personally, I'd add jalapeños to the burrito, if I was to order it, but she was thrilled with it). Bottom-line, you can't go wrong with Canopy Road if you're in Tallahasee for breakfast or brunch and okay with non-alcoholic beverages, because that's the one thing they're lacking.

Menu is full of crazy delicious-sounding stuff!
Vicki R.

My first impression was "cute, diner vibe" but then I looked at the menu and specials and realized this is no typical diner! I ordered the Doc's Usual from the Healthy Side menu and it was fresh and delicious with egg white s and spinach, 2 turkey sausage patties, wheat toast, and delicious fresh fruit of pineapples, strawberries, and blueberries. My companion had an egg platter with 2 eggs, hash browns, bacon, and toast. I will definitely come back when I have time in the day to nap after a big breakfast meal to try one of their pancake breakfasts (Fat Elvis pancakes!!) or their Animal Cracker pancakes.

Summer salad

Met friends here for lunch and we enjoyed it! The service was fast and they had a large menu. Everything from breakfast to lunch to dessert pancakes. We tried a variety of their lunch options and everyone was pleased with their meals. The portions were plentiful and the food was fresh. Masks are required inside and all of the servers were wearing masks.

When we came in there was no table available. Server tried to prepare a table in room to the right. He failed to do that. Then we got seated in a middle of cafe. After 15 minutes we were asked to go sit at the booth table because they have a bigger party coming. We waited for a food for about an hour. In a mean time waitress kept coming to ask are we doing ok,.lol Our table was next to the bathroom and we heard waitress talking amongst themselves about what they found in one of the stalls. Then customers next to us were asked to stand up, as apparently their seat is a bench and staff is storing bleach bottles in those benches. So 2 older ladies had to get up so staff can retrieve bottle of bleach from under their seat. Food was nothing but mediocre and simple mocktail cost $14 at lunch time. Too bad that we had such a horrible experience. This place does look cute in a pictures.

If you're ordering the Pasta Huancaína, make room for a Lavender Haze to go with it. They just belong together.

Staff was kind and friendly. Patient with any questions. Started with the black bean cakes. They were a great portion and so delicious. Then shared a salad and a fish entree over jambalaya rice. Both were so delicious and fresh. The fish was so tender and juicy. The dressing on the salad was also delicious. Didn't have room for dessert but really enjoyed dinner here. Ambiance was nice and chill. Enjoyed their dog paintings on the wall. Can't wait to come back here in the future!

Of late we have had some success getting here during their lunch hours which has reminded me of just how good they are. The menu changes some pretty regularly so there are new ideas to try over time. There also are dishes that have stood the test of time that will always be present. The rainbow trout is one of those and you will never go wrong ordering that. Always delicious. Otherwise have at the several choices that may appeal to your taste. I doubt that you won't like it. The location is a converted mini market. I am remembering that the first restaurant conversion was a classic diner that was good for breakfast but Kool Beanz has been here for a long time and thriving. Some of the best seats in the house can actually be on a stool at the counter watching the chefs ply their trade. There's an additional large dining room at the end of the building and they have created a nice outdoor space as well. What may be hard to come by when they are busy is a parking space. Service has always been friendly and attentive. Prices are reasonable considering the creativity that is involved. You will pay more at dinner which is why we love to catch them at lunch.

The restaurant was spotless, and the staff at the front counter were friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. I also loved the patriotic atmosphere. The American flags and the seals representing all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces were a great touch and made the place feel unique. I ordered the double cheeseburger with pickles, grilled onions, ketchup, and mustard. I skipped the lettuce and tomato because of the recent Cyclosporiasis outbreak, which was just a personal preference. I also got an order of fries and their diet cola. Everything came out hot, just the way I like it. The burger was juicy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The fries, with their light breading, were crispy and just as impressive. While the meal was a little on the pricey side, the quality of the food made it worth every penny. Overall, I had a great experience and will definitely be coming back.
