    Delicious and unique coffee place with delicious ice cream and boozey treats! The cafe is Rock and Roll themed and has decor that celebrates music and retro pop culture. The kids can get tasty ice cream and mom and dad can treat themselves to a "naughty" dessert. Staff are super welcoming and are able to offer suggestions of their favorites! There is a cooler with wine, beer and non alcoholic drinks. They have fresh baked goods too! We grabbed some bagels for the next day. It's a great spot!

    Such a great new coffee cafe and more! The coffee is wonderful, as well as the breakfast sandwich's Very comfortable atmosphere/seating too. Definitely gonna be a regular here! Cassie the owner and her crew will take good care of you. Look forward to stopping in for an afternoon boozy coffee or cold beer

    16 oz latte $5.00

    First time trying this place with a friend. Highly recommend!!! Cozy environment, the gal that took our order was fun and helpful. I got a 16 oz latte and egg, bacon, mozzarella cheese, pesto & tomato on sourdough bread. Yum! The menu is designed to build your own breakfast sandwich exactly how you want it. A lot of choices to mix and match once you pick your main sandwich type and bread type. Each addition add on is $1.00. I substituted mozzarella for the cheddar so no additional charge there. Oh, and if you want to be adventurous, you can add a scoop of ice cream to your coffee! Next time :)

    Staff was wonderful, the place is so cute and cozy. I could sit there for hours. The quality of the ice cream and coffee is extremely good! The negatives I experienced were with the food. My bacon egg and cheese sandwich was burnt and tasted like charcoal, inedible. The avocado toast was good but I paid $10 for this (pic shown). They forgot the egg and..... $10 for this? I would return for drinks but never again for food.

At some point, my mom had to get up to find someone to take our order, which is not a great start. Service thereafter was neither terrible nor outstanding. But she was polite and prompt, and seemed to get our order right. 3/5 for service. My niece ordered the French toast with eggs, a fruit cup, and sausage. My mom ordered an omelette with grits, and my dad ordered the chicken biscuit sandwich with loaded breakfast potatoes. For my meal, I had a waffle, a fruit cup, and some breakfast potatoes. My mom and I got the pineapple mimosas. They didn't have a ton of vegetarian options, but this definitely worked out just fine. I do still hope that they will add more vegetarian options to the menu, including keeping a little plant-based sausage or bacon on hand. The pineapple mimosa was very delicious and came in a nice, ample glass. The waffle was good. I personally like my waffles a bit crisper, and this one was a bit softer, but it still tasted great. The breakfast potatoes were perfectly cooked. Lovely and crispy on the outside, well seasoned and perfect with ketchup. The fruit cup was also delicious, nice and fresh. Overall, it seemed like everybody enjoyed their meal. 4/5 food The space itself seemed pretty clean, and the booths were nice. Even though the decor was not my personal style, the ambience was still nice overall. 4/5 ambiance Overall, pretty good experience. I'm sure we'll be back.

    I would like to start with the presentation of the food - It definitely looked beautiful. Although…read moreit did present beautifully, it didn't necessarily taste the best. Shrimp & Grits - The grits had absolutely no flavor (highly recommend using more than water to make them). I assumed the lobster cream sauce was meant to mask the absence of flavor, but since there are more grits than sauce it is hard to go un-noticed. - This was sent back in exchange for an All -American w. Cin-a-bun pancakes. All-American - The cin-a-bun pancake did taste very good. The bacon was bacon. The eggs were good. The homefries were kinda dry as if they may have been sitting for a while. Nashville Chicken Sandwich- The sandwich had potential to taste great. The chicken was nice and thick, but i believe all of the hto sauce may have been poured on just one side of the sandwich. - one side was a plain chicken sandwich which was tolerable. While the other side of the sandwich was extremely hot ! The french fries tasted very good! Classic Burger - Tasted good. Fries were good. The Server we had was somewhat attentive. She was not rude. Just did not see her much. This place is slightly loud- the energy is definitely upbeat. Overall, I dont have it on my list to return - slight underwhelmed.

    This was my 2nd visit to Lillie Pearl at their new location at 305 Brook Road. I absolutely love…read morethe new location. The decor and the ambiance are invigorating & soul soothing concurrently. On both occasions I ate in the upstairs dining area & I really enjoyed being able to look out their windows & observe the hustle & bustles of Broad Street while dining. The music that played in the background while we dined was the perfect aural companion to a down home Southern cuisine centered meal. As you know, I love when the music in the restaurant compliments the cuisine & Lillie Pearl's playlist is top notch. During our dining time, we ordered their Smoked Wings as our appetizer. The wings were perfectly seasoned & visually appealing. However, I found them to be a bit dry & overcooked for my taste. My dining companion, however, had no problem with the wings texture. She enjoyed them very much. For my main meal, I ordered their Wild Game Burger[a mixture of Waygu Beef, Bison & Wild Boar] with a side order of Fries. The burger was cooked perfectly. It was well seasoned & juicy. The fries were delicious. They were crispy and also perfectly seasoned. I could have eaten a whole plate of just the fries alone. I ordered a cocktail to complement my meal, the Sweetest Thing. It was bright, crisp & a perfect drink for my food. As for Customer Service, Our server was courteous & attentive & knowledgeable about any menu changes we needed to be aware of. Also of note for me was that I had a reservation I needed to change to an earlier time slot & the staff was able to accommodate my request expediently. I also appreciated the fact that they informed me in advance that they were still on the Lunch menu & not dinner as my initial reservations had requested. I find that type of honesty & transparency refreshing & is definitely one of the reasons I will ALWAYS be a loyal Lillie Pearl customer.

On to the meat and potatoes: Got seated quickly (had a res). Server (Caleb) was attentive, but not overbearing which was nice. Helped me out with ordering the brussel sprouts, suggesting them as a side instead of the appetizer (since it was just me) which was cool. Food: Phenomenal. Ordered the braised short ribs with a side of fried brussel sprouts. Short ribs were meaty, super tender, flavorful and plentiful. Served over mashed potatoes. With a (large) side of really good collard greens. The brussel sprouts were different from any other brussel sprout I've ever had. Very much had a "kung pao chicken" vibe to them (that's what Caleb called it, and he was right). Really really good. Only downmark is on the banana pudding. It was "good" don't get me wrong.....but it was super sweet and didn't have any real bananas or Nilla wafers in it. I would have been happy if the serving was 1/2 the size it was (because it was so sweet, couldn't eat the whole thing). Just came off as overly commercial. All in all a great meal, and a great start to a Saturday evening.

We booked a reservation and that seemed like a good idea, as it was quite full inside. We were seated in a corner booth in their dining room, directly across from the expansive wrap-around bar area. I noticed a cute little fireplace in the dining room too. All around, the vibe was perfect for a chill dinner. I ordered the Abita root beer ($5) to drink, which is always a good choice. One of my friends ordered a Sangria, which looked lovely, and she said it was good. I'd consider ordering that in the future. For food, I started with a small ceasar salad ($5). I loved the dressing on it so much, I wish I could've bottled it up! I would return JUST for that dressing. One of my friends ordered it for her meal and added salmon, and she also liked it. Another friend ordered the spinach salad and *loved* it. I ordered the blackened mahi with pimento grits and brussel sprouts for my entree ($30), the brussels subbed for the broccoli that originally came with the dish. Everything on the dish was delightful, and my leftovers warmed up well the next day too. We each ordered a different chocolate dessert, including the chocolate peanut butter pie, the chocolate pot de creme, and (myself) the brownie sundae. We all enjoyed them quite a bit. Prices were super reasonable, especially considering how much food we ordered. Everything was clearly high quality also. Can't wait to try more of their menu in the future!

Despite that, this ended up being one of the slowest breakfast experiences we've had. The "Gooey" "tear and share" item was nearly burnt and, ironically, very difficult to tear and share, even with a knife. Coffee was brought out promptly, which we appreciated, but it wasn't refilled until we were almost completely finished with the meal. I had just a couple bites left before finally getting a refill. Food overall was just okay. The Huevos Rancheros were fine but missing jalapeños, and my wife's Benedict was decent but had lite hollandaise sauce compared all the Benedict's we've had. For the price, this place doesn't deliver the level of quality or service you'd expect. Adding an automatic 20% tip on top of that just made the experience more frustrating, especially since the service felt in line with what you often see at places that auto-gratuity. Overall, not somewhere we'd return to.
