Restaurant was extremely clean. All the restaurant staff were efficient and friendly. Food came out quickly and was delicious!

Nice cute cafe that is open for breakfast and brunch. We had our dog and were seated in the side alley which was covered. That was nice as it was very windy outside. Coffee is good. Crab omelet was nice. I liked my Lox sandwich was well only wished it had more capers.. French toast was delicious and generous portion. The home fried felt under cooked and not to our liking. Rest everything was nice. Service was prompt and friendly. I recommend this place of you are in the area. read more

So full disclosure, I'm not really a "breakfast guy." My mornings usually consist of 2-3 cups of coffee. Only exception is when I'm back home in NYC, I'll have a local BEC (Bacon/Egg/Cheese) on a kaiser roll or an everything bagel + cream cheese since you know...bagels in the DMV are MID. So, it's some surprising that I rate Eggcellent a solid 4, as I rarely visit restaurants for breakfast. Located in Downtown Lewes, DE, I agree with some of the other reviewers who describe this joint as an "elevated diner." The interior dining room is teeny tiny; like shoe box size. Best bet for a table is the enclosed outdoor patio, which is where we sat. There were three of us, and in addition to our entrees, two of us ordered mimosas, while I had black coffee. I tried a sip of the mimosa. It was fine...a bit too sweet as the Orange Juice tasted like concentrate and not fresh...but fine just the same. Entrees arrived within 10 minutes of placing orders. My meat lovers omelette was good. A heaping portion of ham and sausage were folded into the fluffy egg mixture. The home fries could've been more crispy and were a tad underseasoned. The hot sauce and table S&P provided additional flavor. Classic dish of eggs, home fries, and sausage patties was quite satisfying. The sausage was the size of a hockey puck and tasted really good, especially with the slight char from the flattop grill. The bagel with cream cheese and lox was probably the best thing at the table. A toasted bagel was topped with generous amounts of smoke salmon, capers, and slivers of shaved red onion. I tried a piece, and realized I should've ordered this. Service was as expected. Staff would routinely stop by to check on us, and kept water glasses filled, as welll as my essential cup of morning java. We had an enjoyable experience, albeit felt a bit rushed towards the end of the meal. But I understand, since there was a constant wait for tables, and as a business, there is the need to turnover customers to make way for new seatings. For three adults, entrees with beverages, tax and tip was a bit over $75. read more

This is a cute spot for brunch in downtown Lewes. My wife, two sons, and I ate in the enclosed outdoor patio as the main restaurant was crowded. My wife enjoyed an omelette with home fries. One of my sons had a salad with chicken. My younger son and I had the artisanal sandwich (chicken with avocado and brioche). To be honest, it was kind of meh. I would stick with traditional items (like the omelette). For the location and service, it's a nice place to dine. read more

A decent choice for breakfast in Lewes. Nothing was bad, mind you; just... not anything particularly outstanding either. Service was fine. I had an omelet, and my wife had crab Benedict. My omelet came with a small smattering of hash browns and a piece of toast with one of those small plastic thingies of grape jelly to spread. Coffee was okay. For the price, I might have thought the portions would be a bit bigger. Glad we tried it, but IMO there are also better options about. read more

Fine stop in Lewes for an elevated diner-like experience. We stopped in for a midday weekend meal. Seated immediately, great service. Kind of a sticky vibe overall. Portions were enormous, we should have ordered just one entree for two people but we got both an omelet and french toast and were absolutely stuffed. They put granola on their french toast which was kind of weird, it was a little stale, wouldn't recommend it. Overall a fine choice if you're in town for the day. read more

5/5 ambiance 5/5 service 3/5 food Really cute spot in Lewes. Lowkey, diner ambiance. Food was mediocre. The granola didn't pair well with the French toast and was stale. There's a lot of potential in this dish, could consider topping with toasted pecans, whipped cream or mousse, and caramel drizzle - remove the granola and raisins. read more

Came here for brunch on a weekday and was pleasantly surprised to see the restaurant busy with patrons. There were several specials on the menu that were seasonal and available for purchase. Since it was fall I ordered the pumpkin pancakes. The cakes were light and fluffy with a subtle pumpkin flavor. I could have gone for a bit more spice, but I enjoyed them nonetheless. We also ordered a BLT which came out with crispy bacon and a generous serving of avocado. The service was quick and friendly and we enjoyed sitting outside because the weather was mild for November. There were lots of beverages to choose from -- coffee, tea, and chilled drinks. A great spot for breakfast or a relaxing lunch. read more

Bottom Line: Quaint spot for pairs or small parties to have breakfast or lunch. My husband and I had a Sunday morning breakfast at Eggcellent on Market Street. We enjoyed the quaint atmosphere, whimsical artwork, attentive service and variety of breakfast options. My husband enjoyed a huge omelette full of veggies and I branched out form my normal high-protein breakfast for French Toast. The French Toast had whipped creamer, fresh berries, granola and cinnamon on it so it was surely a decadent treat. We washed all of that deliciousness down with black coffee. We visited Eggcellent on a Sunday morning in March about 8am and I was surprised that it wasn't very busy. I suspect the crowds come later. Hopefully those crowds come in parties of two or four because Eggcellent is rather small and probably only seats about 45 people between a few tables on the front porch, a back patio (I think) and the tables inside. In other words, I wouldn't bring my rowdy friends here for breakfast but I certainly enjoyed Eggcellent for a peaceful and delicious start to the day and I'd be happy to return. read more

Pretty much a breakfast joint on steroids, this comfortable restaurant offers every traditional morning meal and then some. Service is generally swift, efficient and friendly. If you order Eggs Benedict, be advised that it will come with tomato slices, which is not traditional, and slices of broiled ham, which is, but not enough Hollandaise. Just tell the waitress what you do or don't want and by all means enjoy the hash browns. I can't imagine ever being disappointed at Eggcellent. (Coastal hiway location) read more

This small café has a cozy outdoor seating area where we decided to sit. We were seated right away, and our waiter was very kind. We ordered avocado toast with two eggs and just the right amount of sliced potatoes on both dishes. I went with the veggie omelette with American cheese, which was cooked just right. Afterward, it's easy to walk around and explore the nearby shops. Parking is conveniently located about a five-minute walk away. read more

We did not have the 4.5 star experience this place rates on Yelp. We were promptly seated in the outdoor seating area with our party of 6 and ordered water, OJ, and coffee. Service was fine, waitress was attentive, and the food and drinks came out promptly. The pancakes looked good, and the breakfast burrito was reportedly tasty. But the omelettes were dry, the toast warmed bread, and the poached eggs were pretty much hard boiled. The home fries were decent, but overall a very disappointing experience given the glowing reviews. read more

Wow! This place is amazing. I had the Cafe Con Leche....SOOOO GOOD! I also had the Avocado toast and man it's elevated. We will be going back before we leave. My husband had the pancakes, eggs and bacon. All tasty. Great service and nice decors. Good vibes. read more

We have several favorite restaurants in lovely Lewes Delaware, but on this day decided to try someplace new for a light meal. It was around 12:30 PM on a spectacular June day when we decided to try out Eggcellent. Being a gorgeous day, we chose to eat at one of the two tables for 2 butressing the main entrance. We were promptly waited upon and served expeditiously. I had the avocado toast with eggs which was delicious. There were about a half dozen cute little sparrows peering down from the underside of the veranda. We had to wait a bit to receive our check, but being in beachvibe mode on a perfect day, we weren't in a rush. The food was quite tasty, and the portions more than adequate. I can't comment on the indoor ambience as we mad a decision to eat outdoors. There is what appears to be an enclosed porch where diners can enjoy their meal on the right side of the restaurant. We'll definitely return. (As an aside, and nothing to do with Eggcellent, parking meters ARE closely monitored and strictly enforced. We saw a meter "maid" with no sense of humor, knocking on a passenger's side window to tell an idling driver to " feed the meter if you're going to park here, or face a $40 ticket." Sheesh!) read more

Upon the recommendation of a fellow yelper, we came here for lunch. We opted to sit outside, which was in a covered tent with fans, which was appreciated with the heat and it helped to keep flies away. Everything came out so quickly! Our onion rings came out first, and they were perfect. I really liked how even thought you bit into it, the onion wouldn't all come out in a line, if you know what I mean. My favorite was the crab and asparagus omelette. The crab taste really came through and the asparagus was perfectly cooked--not too hard. read more

Really really really sad about this.. When I came here by myself it was truly cool.. it was a great experience, flavorful pancakes and pretty on point service! So naturally when my mom flew in from Texas and my kiddos came up from school, I immediately wanted to bring them here.. Boy was WRONG!! In the words of my fiancée and mother.. The ketchup has more flavor than the food. We ordered and it took over 45 mins for our food to arrive. This place is not busting at the seams with people waiting for food. Our server, may be the owner or GM.. I don't know but he seems more bothered that we are sitting here rather that being pleased to have us here this morning. He rushed us and while we were trying to modify our orders, he would look on to the next person. Didn't check in on us, didn't care to see if we needed anything else, didn't apologize for the food taking so long. (We didn't have a massive order)... The Crab Benedict didn't even have crab on it, it didn't have old bay and the hollandaise sauce was bland. My mom had to get salsa AND hot sauce to get any type of flavor. The pumpkin pancakes WERE NOT even pumpkin.. LITERALLY!! They were regular pancakes with some pumpkin spice sprinkled over the top (which is not what I had the first time I visited).. I am just genuinely sad that this place is an absolute thud for my family visiting. Horrible all around and not worth the money! The patio was nice but they also pile people on top of each other. Also, thanks for serving people who sat down 30 mins after us!! read more

I have a wonderful experience for breakfast at Eggcellent today. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the lox omelette with a side of home fries. My sister had the banana foster French toast. Both meals were delicious and satisfying. The food portions are large and the prices are good. We would definitely come back again to eventually sample their entire menu. The location is in a quaint historic neighborhood. It's a delightful place to eat before a leisurely walk around the neighborhood. read more

Super nice little place. It is tucked off the main street running through town and has both indoor and outdoor seating. Coming here for a late breakfast on a Sunday, I had the perfect meal of the Morning Burrito - Bacon, eggs, avocado and cheddar cheese in a tortilla grilled to perfection. It came with home fries, and they certainly looked like HOME fries that didn't come out a frozen bag. The portion size was almost too big, and it ended up being my meal for the day minus having a small dinner much later in the day. read more

One word - DELICIOUS. Arrived here on a Sunday day for brunch and found this place on Yelp. Parking is limited but it's places to park a little ways up, or on the connecting streets. The restaurant and small but the service was really great. They have inside, outdoor and patio seating with heaters there as well. The attached photos are what was ordered and we had to bring food home. We also ordered scrapple (not pictured) and it was cooked EXACTLY how I love it!

Caught just before the temp closure on New Year's day. Warm reception and prompt seating, nice variety of breakfast dishes on the menu to satisfy most cravings.
