    Cinnamon roll waffle
    Signe S.

    Such a great little diner! Breakfast is my favorite meal and I'm always looking for local diners. The staff was incredibly friendly and obviously enjoy their jobs. It made the whole atmosphere very comfortable. The food was delicious. My husband had a cinnamon waffle with cream cheese glaze that broke my gluten free heart. The smell was divine, and he said it tasted as great as it smelled. I would go back, weekly.

    Best club I've ever had!  Amazing!
    Melissa Joy M.

    Seriously doesn't look like much, but the food is amazing! I had the club, which was made with thick ham and turkey, perfectly cooked bacon, and fresh l&t! My husband had the chicken fried steak - yum! Service was excellent! As busy as they were, we never wanted for anything and never had to ask for a drink refill! Spot on place for breakfast!

    Was in the need for breakfast, so got out my handy Yelp App and found Dolly's Café, gave the address to my brother and off we went! It was a Wednesday morning and not too busy. It's a cute little café and they are doing well with covid precautions with seating spaced out and booths have privacy curtains. After checking out the menu I went with the Dolly Scramble, it was diced ham and scrambled eggs mixed with hash browns, peppers, onions, mushrooms topped with sour cream. It was just what I was craving that morning. And it came with a choice of toast or a homemade biscuit, so I went with the biscuit and raspberry jam. The biscuit was so tender and paired well with the raspberry jam! This is a delish breakfast at Dolly's Café, look forward to coming back next time I'm in town!

    Dorothy's Special #2

    Had a very nice first visit to Dolly's today. Recommend by family and friends for quite some time and just never got around to trying it. Jessica was our server and she was excellent. She kept drinks filled and was overall very attentive. She also made us feel like family. It's a small place with a handful of countertop stools and about 10 booths. Nicely appointed inside with comfortable booth seating. Both of our meals, the Uncle Jacks Omelette & Dorothy's Special, were very good. High quality and plenty of food to get your day going. Everything about this was excellent except the price. Breakfast set us back over $30 without tip so that's the only reason for a loss of star. Great food, excellent service, but pricey.

    Got bumped out of the Yelp event at Browne's Bistro, sulked for awhile and then headed out for Dolly's! Upon entering, I immediately noted the intimate space and booths and feared my obesity would be a problem. However, the booth we chose was plenty comfortable and we settled in for breakfast. My wife had a half-order on the biscuits and gravy and I chowed down on the "Hearty" breakfast (see photo). The service was very friendly and the food was lip-smacking good. We tag teamed the food and left no survivors! The wait staff was very attentive and the food and coffee perfect! Next stop, LUNCH!!

    Perhaps the best breakfast spot in the area! I love their French Toast and Eggs Benedict. Prices are reasonable for the portions and service is friendly and fast. Only con I could think of is that this place is rather small for a restaurant and not ideal for big groups and may be challenging for those in a wheelchair.

    Loved my breakfast!!! Everything was homemade especially the strawberry jam!!!!!  I'd love to come back for lunch.
    Sandy C.

    The food at the cafe was excellent. I got the hash browns and eggs with a side of bacon. The biscuit came with homemade strawberry jam! The service was great as well - very helpful and friendly! We'd love to stay for lunch too!!

    This place is permanently closed. Walked across town to see the for sale sign and an empty parking lot. Bummer, it looked amazing.

    Menu as of 8/16/21

    Second time going here. Prices have increased $5-6 from just 8 months ago! They do a ton of delivery/to-go orders with door dash, Uber eats, etc. so even though there were only 4-5 tables seated it took over 30 minutes for the two of us to get our food. Probably won't come back. I believe the pandemic has shifted their focus online and the increase in prices is a tough bite to swallow. Happy they're surviving but I was hopeful for more with the cute diner it is. Maybe if they kept online prices raised but return their in person menu to January prices?

No one asked if we'd made a reservation. I eventually asked a server at the bar if we should seat ourselves because we'd been standing there for so long. No, someone will help you soon. A host walked up. He was eating something. When he got to the host stand, he finished his food, took a big drink and wiped his hands before making eye contact with us. He said the wait would be 15 minutes. We sat down in the lobby. We were seated at a community table. The couple to our right finished their meal, paid the bill and left. Their seats were bussed. This all happened before our server greeted us. We ordered coffee. We waited. And waited. I scanned the restaurant for our server - or any server- to ask about our drinks and place our food order. No one else approached the table. Still no coffee. It had been 30 minutes. We decided to leave. The host realized we were leaving. He offered to find our server, pay for our meal, seat us somewhere else. He practically chased us out of the restaurant. I appreciated the sentiment but it was too little, too late and my teenage daughter was super uncomfortable with his approach. I was excited to eat at House of Brunch. I won't be back.

    What a fun experience! A must in Spokane…read more This restaurant is inside of an old dining car and has been in business since 1931! The inside as shown in my picture is very charming and old timey. Allow time to wait for a table unless you are just one or two like I was and able to grab a seat at the bar. I was able to sit immediately. The staff is very amiable and the hostess made the recommendation that I try the Caprese Benedict, which had fried tomatoes in place of bread, fresh basil and blood orange balsamic drizzle. They offer the option of one or two Benedict, which is nice if you aren't super hungry. They also give the option to smother the hashbrowns and cheese, which I obviously opted into. The menu is absolutely massive though, so if Benedict's or even breakfast aren't your jam, you should be able to find something that suits your fancy. Also worth noting that they offer a very wide variety of gourmet flavors of house-made juices (7 or 8) for mimosas, like honeydew melon mint which I tried as a soda with soda water since I was driving.

    Popular Brunch Spot offering Seasonal Mimosas and Flavorful fare. We went on a Friday around noon…read moreand didn't have to wait for a table. Started off with a Perfect Peach & Huckleberry Lemonade Mimosas that were divine! Everything on the menu sounded amazing so we ultimately decided on the chicken and biscuit with country gravy, the Honey Gochujang chicken sandwich with fries and the verde Hash with eggs on the side. The chicken and biscuit was a winner but be prepared for the food coma afterwards- worth every bite! Their fried chicken is perfectly seasoned and moist. I'm glad we shared the chicken sandwich because it would have been too much , too sweet, on its own. I was Expecting to get more heat but it was mostly sweet- could have used more of a tangy slaw and house dill pickles for texture and acidity. The title with Honey in it should have tipped me off. The Verde Hash was the best hash I've ever had and a generous portion. The use of roasted poblano peppers, red peppers, carnitas and potatoes was taken to next level with the feta cheese on top! Great flavor profile and big enough portion to share. I can't forget to mention the delightful server who patiently gave suggestions and went out of her way to make our first Bruncheonette Experience memorable. Tip- put extra time on your parking meter because you're going to need to take a walk after your meal.

The burrito flavors were pretty good, but wish it came with more tots since we didn't have the tortilla to go with it. It was definitely enough (maybe a little too much) for two people to share. Would absolutely have wanted to try more items! The host and waitress were both super friendly and our waitress was the perfect amount of checking in (at the right times), asking correct questions, and noticing our needs. She was so excellent!!
