Gab & Eat GOOD:…read more Wonderful local, Carnegie business. A fun diner vibe with amazing breakfast, vibrant staff and fair prices BAD: Nothing much, they close early (230ish) and pot coffee is on the expense side (2.99) But they do grind their beans and I enjoyed a cup to go. Gab & Eat is right up my alley. I love diners, especially quirky places with top notch breakfast. Gab & Eat is all that and more. The staff clearly enjoys their jobs and the locals. If you sit at the counter you get to watch the skilled cooking action. As a Carnegie visitor, I went 2x - a tell right there. Day one was a great omelet, day 2 a superb bagel sandwich. My servers were great and friendly. If you're in the neighborhood, starting your day here is a wise move.

I ended up swapping to a Fat Heads Bumble Berry as the beam me up was too sweet for me. I ordered the Smack and it was very filling, had to get a to go box for the other half. Everything else came out great as well. If you got a hankering for some grilled cheeses, this is the place to be!

After a recent visit here - my 7 yr old niece loudly proclaimed: "The Yard was a bust."…read more And unfortunately she was right. We came here with my three young nieces. From the moment we stepped inside - my brother warned me that this spot is usually understaffed - so we may need to wait a little for a table. No worries. We got comfortable at their low seated waiting couches. I personally could have easily stayed there for the whole duration - and I think my nieces could have as well. We brought out some of their art supplies and they quickly began their masterpieces. About 15-20 minutes later - a staff member said our table was ready. We made our way over to our hightop table - which conveniently also had an elevated booth set-up. It was a nice set-up for young kids, especially ones intent on finishing homemade cards. The Yard even had some crayons and playful coloring placemats for kids to draw on. Score! My brother placed an order for some pretzel sticks, some orders of tomato soup and some grilled cheeses. My nieces had huge grins on their faces as they imagined their upcoming meals. After about 25 minutes or so after our order was taken, - the pretzels came out. They looked and smelled fantastic. They were great for holding over my nieces' growing appetites. My nieces enjoyed them thoroughly. That's when things stalled. We waited for over an hour with no additional food coming out. I noticed that there was another family beside our table with a young baby - that had also been waiting a long time. I could see the concerned looks on their faces - as their table grew restless and hungry. You could tell that they were eager to eat, go home and put their baby to bed. My nieces began to to get antsy and began to whine about how hungry they were. My brother said that we would wait about 15 minutes more and if we had no update or food - we'd ask about the status of it. And so we waited. No one came over to us - so I went to the bar - and asked about the status of the food - explaining that we had three younger children with us, that were beginning to get hangry. The bartender said that one of their chefs had gone home sick earlier in the day - and that they were short-staffed in the kitchen. She said that she would check on our order and let us know its status. She never came back over to us. We waited for about 20 minutes longer. Nobody came over. I totally understand how things can get busy, how places can be understaffed, and that things come up - but I think that The Yard could have handled the situation more proactively. They should have let us know from the very beginning that they were understaffed and that there would be a wait for food. We likely would have gone elsewhere. Since my nieces had to be back home promptly for bed - we ended up paying for the pretzels and my nieces' drinks - and left. My brother explained the situation to their staff before we departed. From my time here - I believe The Yard would be a solid spot for a family friendly meal - but only when they're well staffed. If you come here hungry - I'd recommend confirming with the staff - before you are seated - how long the estimated wait for your table and your food may be. Trust.

Not surprisingly, when we entered it was packed. The small dining area had many tables packed in and there was also seating at the counter. We grabbed the last two seat at the counter and were promptly greeted by the friendly and accommodating staff. You could tell there were a bunch of regulars here. Servers knew their names and their orders (or at least their drinks). If this was closer to where I lived, I could totally see it as a place we would frequent. They have a menu that features both breakfast and lunch (but it was pretty clear where they shine is breakfast items). They have all the staples. Pancakes, eggs, omelets. But they also have creative options like scramble bowls. In addition to their menu, they also have a specials board. I opted to order the Polish scramble that had eggs, pierogi, onions, cheese and polish sausage. It was delicious! My daughter ordered a pancake and an omelet. Portions were large, service was fairly quick (especially considering how busy they were) and most importantly, the food was delicious. If you are in the area (or even if you like making trips to check out wonderful family owned places) this one is definitely worth a visit!
