    Biscuits
    Jason M.

    I was flying solo for breakfast and Daytrip came up near me. I am very happy it did. First off, the place is smallish so you will likely wait for a table (don't worry, it's not long and it's worth the time). Even though I was a solo they will allowed me to have a table if it opened so I didn't have to wait (I would have but it was a nice touch). The hostess was fantastic and so friendly...as was EVERYBODY! That vibe makes the customers relaxed and friendly as well. I struck up several conversations with my fellow patrons and it made the experience even better. But of course, if the food isn't on point it's all for naught. It is NOT all for naught! I ordered the corn beef hash American Platter with over easy eggs, grits, and biscuits with jelly. I'm not a big corn beef hash guy but it was recommended and I see why! The caramelized onions added just the right amount of flavor and the corn beef was so tender and flavorful . The eggs were perfect. The grits were creamy and the biscuits were soft and warm. They were so flaky like a good southern biscuit. It was also so good that one of the new friends seated next to me couldn't believe how fast I ate. I was enjoying it that much. When I was ready to leave (so I didn't clog up a table for the waiting people) I was offered a cup of coffee to go, which I happily accepted. The prices were reasonable and the experience was 5 star. I can see why there was a wait and why it was worth it. The next time I'm in the area I will be back and bring proper with me. Keep up the good work!

    The service here and the way the place is run is just phenomenal. This was our second visit and the first time we've come on a weekend when it's very busy, but they have the wait/seating down to an art. We did wait in our car but could easily hear our name called and were seated sooner than quoted. Both times we have been here our service was impeccable. It's a very large menu with lots of options. I will say the ONLY reason we didn't give 5 stars (I'd give it 4.5 if I could) is the food was just a lil too salty today for each of us. Not horribly, but noticeable. My son also felt his skillet was good but maybe needed a little more avocado for the value/price. He said with his coffee and skillet he spent over $21 and he was slightly disappointed in his value vs portion size. He was also disappointed he had to pay extra for salsa with his skillet. This was his Personal opinion- that it should come with it as he believed that it did. I, however, got the chicken fried steak breakfast and was very pleased with both portion size and the meal in general. My husband also enjoyed his migas scramble. He only wished it came with some tortillas. All In, this is a very cute throw back to old style diner breakfast and the service cannot be beat.

    What a cute spot for Grapevine! The classic diner vibes meet a fresh interior with nice colors and decor and very friendly staff. We didn't wait long for a table despite it being a Sunday, and we were very impressed by the coffee selection! No classic bad diner coffee here - they have a great variety of espresso based specialty coffee drinks, including seasonal options. The brown sugar shaken espresso was awesome! I had a classic breakfast, and the inclusion of pancakes is always welcome. Great breakfast food and portions. Loved it here!

    packed house! hope it is worth the wait.

    We arrived on a Saturday morning and noticed people standing outside in the parking lot, so we expected a long wait. Surprisingly, it was only about 20 minutes, which felt very reasonable for a busy Saturday. The service was excellent. Our waitress was extremely attentive and made some great recommendations. The food came out quickly and was good enough. The one thing that really surprised me was that there was no fresh orange juice. For a breakfast spot, I found that especially disappointing. A Zumex 04817 Cold Press Automatic Feed Citrus Juicer is certainly an investment, but at around $5,000, I think it could be a worthwhile addition and would really elevate the breakfast experience. We ended up just having coffee and water with our meal. Overall, a pleasant experience with very good service, but fresh orange juice would definitely make me more excited to return.

    Lovely breakfast/lunch spot in grapevine! The food was so good. We got the chicken biscuit, Reuben, and chicken fried steak skillet, all were delicious! We also got a few different lattes; they were good but a little bit too sweet (day tripper latte wasn't all the way mixed either). Our server was amazing and made great suggestions. I also want to shout out the hostess for getting us and everyone else who was waiting outside for a table in quickly. She made sure to update us frequently and she was very friendly. We will definitely be back!

    After traveling all morning this place was a blessing from the beginning to the end. 10/10 will stop here every time I'm in Dallas. I was greeted immediately walking in and was seated with a great server who gave great recommendations and made a perfect start to our trip here in Dallas.

    I love exploring breakfast spots around the Dallas metroplex and I'll have to confess the past few weekends I've shamelessly spent all my allotted weekend brunch time-slots on this place because I just don't wanna go anywhere else. We came here on a whim and boy am I grateful. This place really blows everything/everyone out of the water. Everything we ordered was sooo good, came out piping hot, and got to us very quickly. I can't recommend just one thing (because everything was so good) so I suggest that you just pick something that sounds good to you and you're pretty much guaranteed an amazing meal. I can't remember the last time I gave a 5 star review wishing I could give them more. Call ahead and get on the waitlist because weekends are usually busy!

    Chicken fried steak
    Brandy E.

    We were very impressed. Everyone greets you when you walk in. The staff is so nice and friendly even other waitstaff will stop by your table and ask if you need more coffee or drinks. My husband never ran out of tea which is a job it self! Larry was our waiter and he is the best! I had the chicken fried steak with fried potatoes, eggs, and fruit. Is was hand breaded, so tender, tasty and huge! I cut half of it off and gave it to my husband. He loved it too. He said his biscuits were light and fluffy. He said breakfast was wonderful and it was the best breakfast he had in a long time and that's saying a lot! He is a nit picker and always complains and he loves this place. I highly recommend coming here.

    The remodeled interior is adorable, with 70s‑style retro tables and chairs blended nicely with modern walls, flooring, and booth colors. All the staff were very friendly, and when we were unsure what to order, they asked about our preferences and recommended dishes that suited us perfectly. My husband chose the migas, and I had the smoked‑salmon scrambled eggs. Both were delicious and very satisfying. Other breakfast diners on the same street feel overpriced, but this place offers fair and reasonable pricing, which we really appreciated.

    It's still a fairly new place, but we just tried it for the first time! It's a breakfast/ lunch only restaurant. The menu has a lot of good selections, however, I was surprised to see they don't offer omelettes. A very friendly place where we were greeted to seated immediately. Larry took care of us, did a great job. Pricing was in line with this type of place, but a little high for what I feel breakfast should cost. I got the All-Star skillet, at the cost of $17. It was two eggs, chopped bacon, sausage with onions and green peppers. However, it was about 50% small cube pieces of potato. I felt like there was way too much potatoes, and not enough of everything else, especially for $17! However, the presentation and flavor was good. My wife got the biscuits with gravy, which she said was excellent. Mine came with two large pancakes, which were also very good... served with hot syrup! There are windows on two sides, making it well lit. Everything looked brand new and clean! Definitely a small diner atmosphere. We liked it, however, we did not feel that it was anything which set it apart from many other places like this in Grapevine. As I was disappointment with my skillet dinner, that will likely not encourage me to come back. However, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try them!

    Veggie scramble, one biscuit with cream gravy, fruit bowl
    Denise H.

    This place is like your personal chef cooked breakfast for you! The food is fantastic and the service is top notch! My first trip here but friends and family have raved about it. Of course I wanted to try it all but that wasn't possible. Deliciousness- veggie scramble, eggs Benedict, perfect potatoes, best ever biscuits, and a light, fluffy waffle were soooooo good. Thank goodness my partner in crime was with me so I could try everything! Mackenzie was delightful in helping us with choices and service. Owners Jenna and Geno (sp?) are the nicest people. Can't wait to go back!

    Blt with double bacon (worth it)
    Andrew C.

    Now this was a pleasant surprise. I grew up down the street and waffle way has always been here. Pretty strange walking in and it being gone. But this place? Amazing. The food, service and unsweet tea were great. The biscuits were some of the best I've ever had. Also the chicken was fried to perfection. They have a massive menu so you're bound to get what will satisfy your brunch needs. Can't wait to make it back!

    Laurel Canyon Benedict
    Rich J.

    We had driven by this place a couple of times, but didn't hear much about it until a friend recently recommended it. We went in for breakfast today. Our server Jillian was excellent. We had the biscuits & gravy and the Laurel Canyon Benedict and both were very good. The coffee is superb! The new decor is a huge upgrade from the previous restaurant. The owners are actively involved in the day-to-day operations. They seem to have a really good thing going. Keep up the great work!!
