This was a great post night out brunch spot for my friend's bachelorette party. We came on a Saturday late morning, so outdoor seating was pretty packed, but we were seated inside pretty quickly. Most of our party got the breakfast burrito and enjoyed it. I went for their signature big breakfast with bacon, sausage, 2 eggs scrambled, potatoes, and a blueberry pancake. It was perfect hangover food. Our waitress was extremely friendly. Our group was happy with their food. It's a cute diner. My blueberry pancake was a bit undercooked, but I ate around it. They have free parking nearby and a gender neutral single bathroom stall. If you are looking for diner food after a fun night out, this is your spot. read more

Breakfast place for locals only in Boynton. Fantastic food at reasonable prices. Get here early as seating is limited and there can be a wait. read more

This place is great for what it is. As long as you enter with the mindset that you're going to a relaxed diner you will be satisfied! They have a variety of creative breakfast diner foods. Dedicating a portion of their menu to savory and another to sweet. All of the staff was extremely welcoming and attentive. It had a lovely beach side feel. Seating inside is a little bit dark, so we decided to sit outside, which was lovely for our toddler who had the satisfaction of watching two trains pass by during our meal . read more

I'm not sure how this place has the score it does because I was very underwhelmed. Starting with parking, tight space against the railroad tracks and industrial bays. Doesn't scream breakfast place! The first person who say out group made us feel very unwelcome. It was a weird vibe and we all felt it to the point we almost got up to leave. Then the second waitress was either hung over or just didn't want to be there. She was nice enough but totally out to lunch. We all ordered and our food came out timely. We were very close to train tracks and while the weather outside was beautiful, it was kind of ruined by the train. Not anyone's fault, just stating the ambiance. The food was average at best. Two of five of us had overdone eggs, one order on a bagel and they brought it out on a roll (they did take it away and fixed it then she was just sitting there waiting). The pancakes were good but a bit dense. No lock on the bathroom door, which makes for an uncomfortable feeling! And it could have used a cleaning. Overall, I don't think we will return. read more

The place was kinda dirty, the food was kinda ok, it was kinda pricey and the service was kinda unfriendly. I don't need to go back.

This is my second time here and I came back because the service and food was great. However I'm here for a second time and I am super disappointed. The service was horrible. One waitress seemed completely lost and forgetful. The other waitress never gave us what we asked for. I had to go inside and grab what we needed. No utensils were provided, we didn't get a refill for the longest. The food is amazing but they need to do something about their customer service. I saw a half empty bottle of vodka in the kitchen so I see why everyone was super forgetful. read more

Visiting from southern Illinois and in our travels we always seek out small independent restaurants. We found a real gem here. Very relaxed atmosphere. Tammy was very friendly and cheerful. Crab cake Benedict was very good. Chatted with some local folks. Sat outside and had a leisurely breakfast. read more

East Ocean Cafe - Check out the little trash cans on the table for your wrappers. Oh my, it's so cute. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boynton Beach, Florida

Decided to check this little spot out on an early Sunday morning. Limited seating, a few tables inside, 4 four tops and 1 eight top outside with umbrellas. There was a couple paying their bill so we waited 5 minutes for a table outside. Very low key place. Just a couple employees, but they do a good job of checking up on everyone. Menus on the table, so you don't have to wait on someone to bring them over. Mimosas were good, nice champagne to oj ratio. Cute location, easy parking. Salmon platter was good. The menu description said it came with feta, but it arrived sans feta. Just feels like the dish was very minimal. Not much salad, very few onions. Decent amount of fish though. Also ordered plate of eggs, sausage, French toast, and bacon with a side biscuit and gravy. I was told it was very filling. Service was friendly. read more

Proving that you don't need to have all the glitz and glamour or even a beach front or Ocean view to be one of the best breakfast spots in the area, EOC serves up delicious food with attentive, awesome service at reasonable prices. From the outside it looks like a hole in the wall or dive. But that's also part of its charm, much like reading the morning paper while having brunch as the Trirail or some train passes by on the tracks adjacent to the parking lot. Could you find a fancier place? Absolutely. Would you get the same good old mom and pop type of food. No way. And I say this as one half of a relatively food-snobby gay couple. It was a definite gem of a find. read more

They are only open for dinner on the weekends so this was our first time. Usually, this is a solid stop for breakfast for our household. We had the mussels in garlic & white wine sauce as well as the chicken marsala. Excellent dinner for an amazing price!!!!!!!!! Extremely affordable! And let me just say, the glass of wine was an extremely generous pour Betty was our server, she was excellent and just so sunny! We will definitely be going back!!! read more

Very cute, low key breakfast/lunch spot in Boynton near the railroad tracks serving up no frills traditional menu items. It was a beautiful day to sit outdoors and we were lucky enough to find a covered table quickly. However we were slow to be served, which was ok as it took me a while to find something that caught my interest. I settled on the quiche of the day, a side of corned beef hash, and home fries. Hubs got the traditional breakfast with a coconut pancake. I usually do a good job of choosing my meal but not today. The quiche of the day was some mushroom, bacon, spinach combo but I didn't really taste anything but a sweet crust and grease. The corned beef hash (the canned variety) was good and went well with the home fries. My husband's meal on the other hand looked far more appetizing, and filling...and was. His coconut pancake was huge and very tasty. He cleaned his plate so the rest of it must have been good too. Prices are more affordable than other areas on the east side. I would give our experience an overall 3.5 read more

I kick myself for not coming here sooner. I have walked and driven by this cafe many times and never have stopped in to see what the hype is all about. We got there after noon on a Sunday and they were busy. Luckily, the four of us only had to wait about 10 minutes for a table outside. The menu offers breakfast and lunch and I went for the monti cristo sandwich. Two pieces of French toast with ham, turkey, and swiss cheese packed in between and a side of jelly and French fries. Hallelujah for a fantastic lunch :) The spot is perfect for people watching and our lovely server kept a smile on our faces the whole time. They got customers in and out with their food and didn't rush anybody. What a great place to have some damn delicious food! read more

Nice Lil breakfast spot ..... six tables inside & about eight tables outside .... One waitress so she's constantly running around; mind you it was a Wednesday.... The place inside is clean but definitely dated but very comfy & cozy ... The coffee is delicious and the food was super fresh; we had the eggs over easy with corn beef hash well down & the most delicious rye bread .... We shared a short stack of chocolate chip pancakes which were also super fluffy & delicious... The service is definitely a Lil slow about 35 to 40 minutes from the time we ordered till it hit our table ... the coffee kept coming so that was a good thing ... Our waitress constantly checked in on us as she flew by to make sure all was good ... So, as long as your not in a rush and have plenty of time this was a good breakfast experience.. We would definitely return again & refer family & friends ... Thanks, Greg D & family read more

Food very good, but service....not so much!!! Interesting place, right next to the railroad tracks. Actually, very cool location!! Toast looked like very thin, hand-sliced bread. Breakfast very tasty & fresh. As I said before, service not good. You'll lady wasn't very attentive at all. Would go back once more to see if service improves. read more

Food is great, tasty and large. Love the pancakes and breakfast. We sit in the outdoors watching the trains go by

Cute place near the intercostal and Brightline railway friendly service and really tasty breakfast.

I hadn't been here in a few years, and boy was I happy to come back! We came for breakfast and right off the bat my husband and I were agreeing that this was the best diner coffee we've ever had. We got the Benedict and the ocean special with French toast. Everything was amazing, especially the extra crispy home fries! The food was clean and while we ate every crumb on our plate we didn't feel bloated or like the food had a ton of grease like an average diner. To top it all of Leia our server was so kind and personable. Over all we loved it and will certainly be back! read more

Iced coffee done right! Best breakfast in the neighborhood! Everyone friendly (customers included) and helpful. While service is a bit sporadic, it's worth it. French toast, pancakes and potatoes (with or without onions) are amazing. Spinach feta omelet perfectly cooked. Even in the summer there is a breeze! And the tiki umbrellas keep you in the shade. Cute shops and things to do, right by the new library and city hall. read more

We were over charged! Before I ordered the pancakes I asked if we ordered two different types would it still be the same price. Waitress said yes. Pancakes are $8, comes with two, plus $1.50 each for specialty which we got. That's $11. They charged us $6.50 each. BTW, They don't have pancakes by themselves on the menu. The waitress called the owner and the owner said the bill was correct even the the menu stated otherwise. You can see the menu and bill in the pics. The food was good but I feel sorry for the people working for this owner. We tipped $2 less. Now the owner can explain to the waitress why this was ok. read more

It was great a cheap. The potatoes were properly cooked (i know this sounds weird but in most places when you get egg and potatoes the potatoes are not done well). Service was great, the coffee was good and the atmosphere had a very homey vibe, you can tell that people were regulars and developed relationships. read more

Woke up this morning and wanting a good breakfast but did not want the usual... then I remembered this Cinnamon Roll I had a couple of years back at this local joint on Ocean Ave near Federal in Boynton Beach. We got there and found a nice table outside... the table umbrellas look like little Tiki Huts....Which makes it a local joint : ) My wife got the bacon cheddar broccoli quiche that came with breakfast potatoes... it came with cheese crusted on outside which we thought was different but the result was great. Potatoes were cooked well also. I got the French Toast made with Ciabatta bread. Also a winner my plate was clean at the end and still had enough room for that warm Cinnamon Roll with Bacon on top... yes I said Bacon on top. Service was great got refills of my coffee without out a wait... tables turned quickly. At the table next to us was a family and the dad got a egg sandwich on what looked like a big ole kaiser bun.... next time that is what I am going to try. Had no negatives to write about... so it was great way to start my Saturday. read more

Out of town friends were visiting and that was enough of a reason to try this place out. Normally the area will have some sort of craft exhibits happening but on this Saturday morning the place was pretty quiet. We were welcomed and then seated at a round iron table. Since I was a little chilly we sat in the sun and proceeded to get further warmed with mimosas. I saw quiche so I ordered quiche and let the others debate in confusion on what brunch items they will have. Presentation wasn't all that great but Ioved having my food first while others watched me eat. Quiche was great - nothing special about the home fries with taste. But they also weren't cooked evenly with some solid hard sections in the bites. Once the rest of the food appeared it looked like a buffet on our table. While the street side dining service was awesome, the food, while plentiful, was just average. read more

Love the location and the laid back vibe. Plus love the owner. So nice and her great personality shows in her staff always happy.

We were the only ones in here on a Friday morning, some of the best home fries I've ever had. The monte cristo was great and we loved the mom and pop atmosphere. Perfect, great priced food for an expensive area. Would come back for sure, made us feel at home read more

We've been eating here for several years with excellent food and service. However, our latest visit was not good. There weren't very many customers especially for a Saturday but our service was slow. 3 requests for lemons, got our food and had to wait for silverware. My omelet lacked flavor and had a greasy taste to it. Our server was not very friendly and seemed out of it until, of course, our bill came. Because we are locals, we'll give it another shot and hope both the service and food is better. 2 stars for this visit. read more

Great little spot , we ride by here twice a week on our bike ride . First time we grabbed breakfast and it is a great value with great food and friendly service. The cinnamon roll with gooey topping is sweeeet and so good. LOVE that I can order home fries without onions. Thank you for that! We will be back . This place checked all the boxes and everything was just as one would expect. Thanks for the great food and service. Fruit in the parfait was fresh and huge. read more

East Ocean Cafe - First time, looks yummy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boynton Beach, Florida

We where looking forward to trying this local brunch place out after reading thru all the Yelp reviews and I have to say it wasn't what we expected. This place has been around forever, nice little patio with umbrellas everywhere, on the inside a small interior wall mounted air conditioner and a thousand wall fans blowing hot air all over. The waitress a cute little thing that was dressed as If she just rolled outa bed with her oversized tie dye sweats and lumberjack top who have zero shits helped seat us. A helpful young man got us drinks and then took our order. There wasnt to many people there but our order took 20-mins for some reason? I ordered Eggs Benedict and home frys and my boo ordered waffles which she was looking forward to having. The good: eggs where cooked perfectly with a nice hollandaise sauce. The Bad: The home fries tasted frozen and not reheated properly had that soggy feel and tasted slightly freezer burnt. The waffles seemed store bought and also came out flimsy and tasted not like one would expect from a homemade waffle. I asked the kid do you make these in house and he said yes but told me the freeze then and reheat after? And then told me they make the potatoes to order which I was sure wasnt the case. The people at ocean cafe are extremely lucky kiki's isnt closer cause they would put this place out of business in a second. And a message to them guys you need to go thru all ur doing and remake yourselves into what u aspire to be cause reheating frozen food store bought or poorly made isnt a good thing. Good luck read more
