    Eggs Benedict

    Eggcellent is one of our favorite places to eat at in Lewes. We are here so much I am sure the owner knows us! Always good, fast, friendly service. This time I had a lox Benedict. Tasty and filling! Of course we will be back.

    Sunny side up egg with home fries, bacon and ham

    The service was great, very informative and attentive. Food was delicious and the portions are very generous. We had the build your egg which I chose sunny side up, with bacon , ham and home fries. I didn't go wrong, we also tried their pancakes quite fluffy and the French toast with banana slices and creamy sauce.

    Spinach salad with chicken.

    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.

    This place was adorable! Limited seating so get there early. The food was fresh and delicious and the coffees were great! We'll be back for sure.

    Stylish spot for breakfast! No fuss and fairly good options overall. More gluten free options would be great. Had some friends in town and we decided to go here. Everyone was very satisfied with their orders, my gluten free self included. Would absolutely come back here!

    Lox Egg Benedict.

    Eggcellent service. Eggcellent food. Lox Egg Benedict and Norwegian Bagel Sammy was amazing. We camp at Cape Henlopen every year and just found this place. We will return for more eggceptional food. Service couldn't have been better. They were extremely accommodating of our party of six.

    French toast

    Nice restaurant in town. Good service. Meals arrived quickly and were really tasty. Large portions, good value. The Strawberry French toast was more than I could eat in one sitting, so I took it home.

    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.

    Eggcellent is a quaint spot for breakfast best suited to small parties
    Courtney K.

    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.

    BLT sandwich
    Brittany Anne O.

    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.

    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.

    We ate there the other night with a friend. It is not as good as the old buttery. I have lived in…read morelewes for 16 years. I have tried the various replacements of the old buttery. None are as good as the original. The escargot were very de pod of garlic. Even trying to taste the for garlic it only tasted of parsley. This is a basic fail! Sorry nice half the year in France. I have never had escargot served this way. The chef is supposedly from nice. I had the hangar steak. And frites. It was good to excellent and $45. A little pricey for a hangar steak but it was copious and I took it home. So I guess that gets a good to excellent but expensive. My two colleagues both hotter short ribs. They were moist and small and surrounded by celeriac purée. The wine was expensive at $16 a glass. So $48 for three large glasses. All in all an ok meal but it cost over $200. I say go get a steak at rare or 1776 or harvest tides. Service was excellent. Ambiance was charming.

    We had such an amazing dinner here following our engagement photos last night. The service was…read moreimpeccable, and the vibes of the restaurant were just DARLING. They focus on "whimsical dining" here and it just really shows as a through line through the whole dining experience. We started dinner with two cocktails, they made my extra dirty gin martini beautifully! And it was ice ice cold. My fiancé had their Hoagie-hattan and he really enjoyed it! We had the cheese platter and escargot for our appetizers, the escargot was definitely the star here. So garlicky and warm. Absolutely delicious. I had the lobster ravioli and he had the short ribs. Both were absolutely DELICIOUS. The ribs were fork tender and the ravioli were packed with seafood flavor. Definitely a must try in downtown Lewes!
