Consistency is key and Connie's doesn't disappoint!! Always great food and service!! Have never had a bad experience!

Connie's is one of my favorite local breakfast spots! I literally go there almost every Saturday morning... it's not very big place, so sometimes you do have to wait for a table to be seated (but it's breakfast, so the turnover time is pretty quick). If you're going on a Saturday or Sunday morning, I'd recommend going bright and early (around 8AM) or a little later (after 10:30AM) to avoid the crowd. As far as the food, it's just your standard breakfast menu, and they do also have a lunch menu as well with sandwiches, etc. I usually stick with eggs, bacon, and toast, so nothing too crazy. The coffee is hit-or-miss, but usually more of a miss, unfortunately. The food is very good though! Overall the staff is generally nice, though sometimes it seems like they're a little overwhelmed and the service is a little slow. Still, I would recommend Connie's as a solid breakfast spot! read more

Connie's Kitchen - Eggs over easy with bacon and wheat toast (also comes with home fries but I usually skip those just because it's too much food for me) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

Had a great first experience at Connie's kitchen. We had Brooklyn as our waitress and she was great! I will definitely be back soon.

Connie's is one of our go to breakfast spots. They often have a little wait for seats but that is to be expected at a good breakfast spot. But wait is never too long as the service is fast and friendly. The staff is always kind and very helpful. Today I tried the breakfast special of sausage gravy and biscuits. I am very picky about my sausage and I was pleasantly surprised with the great flavor. Out good was delivered quick and the staff checked in on us often. It's a small breakfast/lunch spot so it's always packed but that a good sign that the food is good in my opinion! read more

The food wasn't terrible. It was fair. Staff were friendly- no issue there. What I found unpardonable was the portion of home fries that came with the omelette. It was about a tablespoons worth. The tiny portion stood out to the point I actually asked the server if my tiny itsy bitsy portion was normal and the server said, and I'll quote, "our home fires are homemade so we don't give too much out" What? The food wasn't bad but not so good I could suffer this "jip" read more

Connie's Kitchen - Itsy bitsy teaspoon size portion of home fries because they're homemade - A breakfast plate features a folded yellow omelette, roasted home fries with potatoes and meat, and a lemon wedge, set on a white dish. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

Great little local place. Very cool menu items. Homie feel to it. The service is great.

First time we stopped in for breakfast but won't be the last. This is a great little place. I really like the decor and the staff are all very friendly. We ordered the cranberry french toast and a dish similar to eggs benedict (but without the hollandaise) - I've completely forgotten what it was called. Both were very good. The French toast was sliced like regular sliced bread. I prefer the thicker kind, so I'll probably try the Texas toast version next time. The eggs benedict like dish was also pretty good and the spinach that was in it was a nice fresh touch. Can't wait to explore the rest of the menu. read more

Although Connie's Kitchen definitely has their regulars who you can spot pretty easily if you pay attention, I still think that this diner is underrated and a hidden gym. Tucked away on the right side of a small plaza (Darsch's Discount Liquor is easier to spot from the road), the seating area is comfortable with typical "mom and pop shop" decor on the walls. The food is consistently good regardless of what you choose while also being reasonably priced. I am personally a fan of a more savory breakfast, often going for the eggs florentine or Mexican omelette and a cup of coffee. I will add that FOR diner coffee, it is not bad at all and I enjoyed my refills. All the workers are incredibly kind whether they're working the biting winters or humid summers. A great place for a long breakfast all year round. read more

Connie's Kitchen - Ya basic - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

Exceptional packaging with the toast wrapped and placed underneath the plate. Us old buggers don't eat as much so this was enough for us. Home fries are well-seasoned and stay on the grill to get cooked Maine style. Great meal. Already have been back to get Connie's Garage-too much for us with the pancakes. read more

Connie's Kitchen - Cheese, mushroom and broccoli omelet with the best home fries in the area. Very well packaged. - A breakfast plate featuring a mushroom and broccoli omelet alongside roasted home fries, served on a paper plate with a colorful geometric pattern. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

I'm surprised by the low reviews for this place. Especially Jason's review below... what do you expect for a plain waffle and a gluten free sandwich?! Haha. Kind of a plain choice where I wouldn't expect the order to be amazing... Why not try a special? They're very good when I've had them. When I have gone here the last few times, I have had the cinnamon pancakes (3) good size pancakes that I almost can't finish, the Nutella and cream french toast (special) and most recently the breakfasts breakfast burrito which was really good and huge. The burrito had egg, sausage, bacon, home fries, cheese, and salsa which I asked for on the side. A couple other people in our party got the special which had an omelette stuffed with their homemade chili and they said it was excellent. In the past they've had the eggs and hash and I can say that the hash is delicious but they're always running out! Minus a star for that. The people are friendly and welcoming, and if you have a special request, like if you want them to make one of their breakfasts a little bit different than they have it listed, they will do it. I always go here for breakfast when I'm in the area which is about 2 to 3 times a month now. read more

Connie's Kitchen - Nutella and cream stuffed french toast.. Delicious.. I've been wanting to see this on the special board again!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

This quaint restaurant is a 10! We stopped for breakfast And ordered the homemade hash and grits. Best corn beef hash ever! Grits with cheddar And piping hot . Waitresses very friendly and Accommodating. I live 39 miles away but I will Be back. If you are in the area you must stop! You will be happy you did! Kudos to the cook! read more

Delicious and great service. Food was yummy. Pancakes are a go to and our server was so sweet.

As a last minute decision, my husband and I stopped in for breakfast after dropping our dog off to be groomed at The Muddy Puppy. The staff was very nice and they knew a lot of their customers by name. The atmosphere made it feel cozy, and like home. The food is very reasonably priced and very good! We ordered off of their breakfast menu, but the lunch menu looked just as delicious. They also had daily specials to order from. Even though this was our first time there, we were treated the same as the other customers who frequent the restaurant. I'm glad we finally stopped in and tried it out! read more

Great food! Nice staff! I had the special breakfast sandwich. Pumpkin spice bagel with egg, cheese, and maple bacon. To die for!!!

Really good- our new breakfast spot. Home fries on point and service is great. Very pleased with what we got and how quick it was. Can't wait to come back and try more! read more

On a suggestion from a friend, my son and I decided to try a different restaurant for breakfast, rather than the usual place across town. Connie's Kitchen is a bit smaller than my usual breakfast joint, but there was plenty of seating available when we arrived. The gal who was serving us was bright & cheerful on this cold morning after Thanksgiving. Upon being seated she asked if we wanted coffee and/or juice for starters. Coffee was a definite! It was really good coffee. We both requested grapefruit juice and she said they don't carry it. I had a glass of orange juice instead. A half star off for no grapefruit juice. The menu is not a stretch. It offers nothing out of the ordinary, covering basic breakfast items. Not a bad thing, but it does not make a standout dining experience. I opted for a ham, cheddar, mushroom omelette that was very well prepared, light and fluffy, with plenty of the filling items. Instead of potatoes, I chose the fresh fruit cup. A nice alternative that they offer! The wheat toast was......well......wheat toast. Nothing special. My son had two eggs, over easy, with home fries and breakfast sausages that were pretty much what you'd expect. The choice was links or patty. No optional Vermont sausage was available like my usual breakfast restaurant offers. Another half star knocked off. Overall, it was an average diner, serving an average breakfast. Nothing bad, except for the lack of the two noted items. Service was very good. Despite the fact that this place is a tad closer, and easier to get to for me, I think I'll remain a customer of my usual little restaurant for breakfast. read more

Great food. Great atmosphere. Friendly servers, cooks and customers! It's very close to the 15. Will definitely come back next time we are in the area! I wish I checked the specials menu because the pumpkin pecan French toast sounded amazing. read more

This is a good place to eat if you want a good, cheap meal. I discovered this place shortly before moving away from CT. If I were to move back to the Wallingford, CT area I would definitely return here. It is a seat yourself type of place, the staff is extremely friendly and the service has always been fantastic. The food has always been quickly delivered and is consistently well-prepared and delicious. read more

Connie's Kitchen - Christine's Garage. 2 eggs, 2 slices of bacon, 2 sausages, home fries and 2 slices of French toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

I came here for the first time last week and had the veggie omelette with home fries and rye toast. It was very well seasoned and would love to come back in the future. read more

Tried this place with a friend for brunch! Great service , awesome menu and delicious food. Definitely a new favorite!

All I can say is WOW. The best thing here is their homemade hash. All of the food in these pictures are really good and the price is extremely fair. I will definitely be back again. Definitely a must try if your in the area! read more

Great spot for solid breakfast staples with killer coffee and super friendly service. Reasonable prices, good selection and delicious homemade food. Almond joy pancakes were super tasty! read more

Just had a black bean wrap and it was so good. The only reason I'm giving this four stars even though the wait staff was very friendly, is because I tried the monkey pancakes too and those were really sweet. I feel like the bananas and the chocolate chips were all in the same spots, just something to keep in mind but again it could've been my taste buds. I'm picky when it comes to bananas. The home fries were good but they could've used a bit of salt but it's a good place to stop in for lunch or breakfast read more

This place was a dive. First impression was that it was a tiny shack tucked away in a low rent plaza opening, first impression was proven right when I walked in the door. Food was okay. Felt like I was eating breakfast at mom's on a Sunday morning. The waffle I got felt like it was cooked on a $20 machine from Walmart. Nothing special about it, but it was still the same price as premium waffles at big league breakfast joints. The place felt pretty dirty too. Staff was very friendly. Service was super fast. Bathrooms were not the best, but were clean enough to do your business and they were decently sized (no standing in the toilet to shut the door for this guy). Parking and seating were awful. They do takeout so if I go back, this is the option. I took my girl because we heard they had gluten free options. They had gf pancakes and gf toast. Not many options if you ask me. Since I felt disappointed in the regular waffle, i can imagine how their pancakes/gf pancakes are. All in all, if you live in the area it is a great place to go when you do not feel like cooking, but if you are coming from a far, do not make a special trip. read more

Delicious delicious food in a nice clean small old fashioned looking diner. I'm a huge fan of the corned beef hash and eggs, it's made there onsite. The folks who work there are very nice as well. I will keep going back. read more

Perfect for a quick, standard breakfast while in the area for a wedding and Apple picking. Meets everyone's needs. Coffee not great. Why do so many breakfast places have bad coffee? Love the yellow and orange paint, cheery decor! read more

Excellent breakfast food. Easy to access off the highway. Try the pumpkin pancakes and Italian sausage. Coffee was yummy and hot too. Highly recommended. It was busy but good and quick, nonetheless. read more

Connie's Kitchen - Pumpkin pancakes- not too sweet and not too spicy. Just right. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

I went to Connie's kitchen for the first time this Sunday. I had a wonderful experience! The atmosphere was charming, the service was fantastic and the food was amazing! Their corned beef hash was literally the best I have ever eaten (and I'm a big hash fan). The pancakes were enormous and super fluffy. The eggs Benedict were superb. I was with 2 friends and we all left full, satisfied and with leftovers. Connie's is my new go to breakfast place read more

Great Breakfast! The best thing about this restaurant is that it is consistant. We have never had a bad breakfast and never had a bad experience and we have been patrons for quite a few years. The servers and staff are always pleasant and working hard and the owners are always working their butts off as well as the help. Well managed and it shows from the amount of business they do. We have been to other breakfast and lunch places in town and they don't rate in comparison. My wifes favorite is the oatmeal and my favorite is the corn beef hash with eggs over easy. You won't be disappointed. read more

It's like your favorite aunt cooked for you. Everything is fresh and tasty and the family that owns it is friendly and kind. Really nice quick breakfast or lunch place. read more

Food is good and the customer service is outstanding. Small family run locations are my favorite. Seems to be very clean and the corned beef is homemade...what more can you ask for! read more

The best part about this place is the atmosphere. It is bright and comfy. While they keep it very clean, the food is average and the prices are just a tad high for what it is (in my opinion). I've been there a few times and each time the service was significantly slower than it should have been. read more

It was are first time here. It is close to home so we wanted to give it a try. The waitress set the tone for me as soon as we sat down she was a waitress that just goes thru the motions not real sencere just going thru the motions. Menus are on the table. She gets us are coffee did not ask us if we are ready said she will be back to take our order she walked over and sat a counter and watched the TV. So we had to wait until she was ready. A big no no in my book. We the custmer have to wait for the waitress. Food was ok. Scambled egss were slightly runny, home fries are red potatoes unpeeled and very bland. To me that says to lazy to make homefries. Bacon was cooked good. They had orange marmalade for my toast. Over priced in my opinion. Might give it another shot. Will not be my first choice. read more

Awesome place for breakfast or lunch anytime. Everything here is made from scratch and to order so it may take a little longer on the weekends because it can be crowded. But it's worth the wait. The Staff is amazing and very friendly. You just need to ask them what's a FaDina ? read more

I love this place! I've been many times with friends and family, sampled many items on the menu. The food is consistently delicious. The waitstaff are kind and efficient. And the space is clean and comfy. I'll be there again soon! read more

I know everyone in town loves Ricks on five, but Connies kitchen has them beat. My husband and I got omelettes, one with home made meatloaf inside, the other with homemade corned beef hash inside. There are no canned hashes here. The home fries that came with our dishes were crispy and delicious and did not come from a bag or freezer...they were little red potatoes with skin still on. Lastly, the cinnamon raisin and cranberry toasts were griddle toasted with butter and just the right amount of sweet. We got jelly but never even touched it so we didn't ruin the bread. read more

I waited 45 minutes to get 2 eggs and one refill on my water. All in all the whole thing took an hour. I saw my waitress 3 times and one of those times she was asking me about a food order that wasn't mine. What a joke. Don't eat here. read more
