Cute little spot for breakfast! We stopped in for breakfast while in town and got seated right away, but it was a weekday. I imagine it's busy on weekends. Our server was great and we both got eggs Benedict which was delicious, along with crispy wedge potatoes. Fast and friendly service and great food.
Time - Sunday morning 8AM Place - Eggy's on 14th Street Us - two seniors I was quite impressed by the variety on the menu which always makes decisions difficult. My wife, on the other hand, always gets a short stack, no matter we go. The service was prompt and friendly. The food came to the table quickly, and hot. I had the Cinnamon Bun pancakes, half order, which was a good portion size. A full serving would have been enough for two. Definitely a go to spot if I am back in town for breakfast.
We got the Denver omelette. Huge portion. Omelette was ok. A little more cheese would have been nice, it was kinda dry. Two eggs with meat. It was good. Standard, hard to mess up. Country benedict was probably the best dish. Biscuits were fluffy. It was two biscuits cut in half. Two pieces had sausage patties with gravy and the other two pieces had poached eggs and gravy. Eggs cooked perfect and gravy had nice flavor. Same potatoes came with all dishes. They were not great. They were fried, very crispy and greasy. They needed seasoning as well. They weren't our favorite. I could see parking being a little tricky since alot of people who live around the area park on the street. We came at 7:30am and got one of the last spots by the restaurant and we were one of two tables sat inside. Service was good. Our waitress was kind.
I had a great experience at Eggy's last week. I visited on Friday in the early afternoon, so there was no wait. I was quickly greeted by my server and ordered the Midwestern Skillet, which came with a pancake on the side. The menu had a large variety and I changed my mind several times before landing on my final answer. The skillet was huge and delicious. I loved the flavors and appreciated the restaurant accommodating my request for no mushrooms. The pancake was also very tasty--light and fluffy. I would definitely return to Eggy's upon a future trip to the area!
"Diner" is the appropriate description here. The service was timely and coffee hot. The bustle of the mostly full room was comforting, and manageable (volume). We were seated quickly, offered our choice of beverage shortly thereafter and submitted our order within minutes. The food arrived within a reasonable period of time and service was consistent and attentive despite the full room. Our food was fairly tasty but I've definitely had better corned beef hash before - probably won't order that again, but I'd definitely come back and try some off the other offerings. I love the non-franchise, local and unique vibe -- high recommend.
Eggy's is someplace I have visited a few times now. My boyfriend and I come here occasionally for breakfast. We were seated immediately and the restaurant is always nice and clean and the staff is always friendly. Our drinks were okay. Nothing super special but definitely not bad. What I'd expect for a more casual breakfast place. Our food came out quickly and looked great! I felt as if the biscuits and gravy could definitely use a little more seasoning and whenever i order sunny side up eggs, they are always under done. They tend to always be liquid on top when I eat them here which always makes me feel a little bit weird about eating all of them. However, my boyfriend LOVES their Benedict! He had no complaints and we mostly come here just so he can have that. Their side of bacon was not many pieces for the price but that's how it is at majority of restaurants so i wasn't too upset. Overall, Eggys is not my favorite breakfast restaurant but it isn't bad.
This place is by far the best breakfast in Minneapolis! An amazing variety of food options and great service! The food was absolutely delicious! It was so good we came back the next day for breakfast!
A MUST VISIT!! I'm an early bird and was able to find Eggy's Diner open at 7am on Saturday. The minute I walked in with my friends we were seated right away. Our waitress was so sweet and quick. Since we were a group of 4 we ordered Eggy's Burrito $15 (IT'S HUGE AND WE COULDN'T FINISH IT , extremely tastyyyyyyy) Eggy's Breakfast Sandwich $12.75 (really tasty and swapped the bacon with turkey sausage) Stuffed French Toast $13 (the filling was citrus mascarpone which was exceptional) Avocado Toast $11 (had mix feelings about this because there was barley any avocados- would not recommend this dish -very simple ) Caramel Lattes $5.50 (latte $4.75 + caramel syrup $0.75) - tasted different than a usual latte but would not order it again. Overall the place is a vibe, quick and delicious! Definitely coming here again when I visit Minneapolis again!
I have a high expectations when it comes to a breakfast joints. This place checked all the boxes. The service was good, could be improved. Really nice staff. Coffee was hot and it had the right taste. Not that smoky taste you feel in your breath. I got a breakfast burrito and a pancake. My wife got a breakfast sandwich. The burrito was off the charts. It was F ing delicious. Most diners go cheap on the pancake quality, but not this place. And you can't forget the massive big potatoes that came on the side. The only thing I regret is I wasn't hungry enough. I need to starve myself for my next visit.
Amazing food and service the place itself was very welcoming. I loved the decor and quick service
We were in town for a concert, and based on the reviews, this place seemed like a good choice. First impressions of the place, the restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. Typical urban retro look. The hostess was not welcoming or friendly. Front of the house first impressions are important. She didn't even welcome us or smile. The waitress was very nice and friendly, though. The coffee was good but a bit acidic. I don't know if it was Collectivo coffee, but I am assuming it was because of the signage on the wall. Overall, food was mediocre. Pancakes were flat. Chocolate chip pancakes didn't have the chips folded in the batter. Just melted on top. Biscuits and gravy side was okay. I never had it with green onions before. Green onions were overpowering. The sausage was way too sweet. It must have been maple and brown sugar. Overall, it wasn't one of my favorite places food wise, plus it was pretty pricey. 3 pancake meals, 3 sides, and 2 drinks totaled around $67 without tip.
Eggys was delicious and our service was impeccable, but there was a big issue. The entire restaurant had no bread or bananas. We were not notified prior to being seated, so we could have gone to our back up option. Instead we ordered our coffees and then when the server was ready, we were told there was no bread or bananas. Half our party was not content whatsoever, while the other half was okay, considering they didn't need bread or bananas. For a total of 7 adults and 2 kids I paid about $160+ Would we go back, maybe half the party, but with more decent options around the corner, Eggys is probably a big pass. Cheers to actual food that's stated on the menu Yelpers xx
I thoroughly enjoyed Eggy Benedict and freshly made coffee. The service was slow due to under staffing on the day of our visit (early morning hours). My husband likes his Chilaquiles. Very friendly atmosphere.

I love checking out local diner eats when I travel, so when I saw this place I knew it was it. I got the Eggy's combo, which came with pancakes, eggs, and sausage patties (my absolute favorite way to eat breakfast sausages). Everything tasted great, and the eggs with cheese were cooked perfectly. The pancakes were a good size and it did not take long for me to get my order which I really appreciate it. Definitely recommend this place to check out if you're in the Minneapolis area for a solid local breakfast spot. read more

Went to Eggy's for a work breakfast during the week and it wasn't busy at all. I loved how bright and open the space is! We started with two coffees and chatted for a bit. Although it wasn't busy, service was pretty slow. When we ordered our food it was out in less than 3 minutes. That concerned me a bit and I assumed food is cooked prior and then reheated. The French toast and American skillet was okay. I could tell it wasn't made fresh, but it wasn't the worst meal ever. Our server was super sweet and helpful when she came to check on us. This spot is located near Loring park which parking is a little tricky. Not sure I would put this on my list to go out of your way to visit, unless you're in the area. read more

I've rated this place 4-stars in the past, but I'm dropping that to 3-stars now. Loud rap music is not what I want to hear at Noon on a Sunday. Many of the tables were not cleaned off when we were there. Just in general, the quality of the staff, service, atmosphere, and food seems to be slipping. read more
I haven't been to Eggy's since the pandemic, but I was excited to come back! From what I could tell, the menu hadn't changed. I've had their Eggy's Benedict too many times to count, so I figured it was time to try something new. They lost 1 star because of how crowded the place was. There were too many tables in the place. You literally are touching shoulders with the table next to you. Not to mention, our table was right next to the front door. So we were hit with cold waves of air every time the door opened. It was unpleasant. But the food and service were excellent. Food: New York French Toast: 5/5. Honestly, I just wanted to have a plate of plain french toast. This seemed the closest fit. Surprisingly, it wasn't too sweet. I would order this dish again. Chilaquiles: 5/5. Can't go wrong with this dish. Turtle Pancakes: 4/5. I thought these were a little too sweet. But if you have a sweet tooth, it's the perfect dish for you! read more
It's fine. That is what we said about everything. Not bad, not great...fine. Which is fine I guess. Bloody Mary was fine. The pickles were nice and spicy. Maybe one of the only places to not include a chaser/snit in MN. French toast was fine. Eggs were fine. Potatoes were fine. Service was fine. Ambiance was fine. Parking is a bit of a pain. Likely won't return as there are so many other fantastic breakfast/brunch places. read more
Food 3/5 - The grilled chicken Cobb was okay but I would recommend sticking to the breakfast items on the menu. Ambiance/ Service 1/5 - We had a server named Elizabeth C. and it was just an overall unpleasant experience. I always give people the benefit of the doubt but she was pretty rude and standoffish. Insisted on giving us our bill right after we got our food. It wasn't even busy. We thought maybe a staffing change, nope, she was cutting up with other customers and still waiting tables for other people. Very odd interaction! read more

Great service and great breakfast with a good menu. We stopped here for our last breakfast in the city and I had an amazing veggie skillet. My fiancé ordered the Irish Skillet and it was delicious. They had a really cute outdoor patio area for anyone who wants to enjoy the weather outside. Great service and really fast! read more

This was my favorite breakfast place when I lived in Loring Park. Sadly with the pandemic, the quality and service was not the same anymore. I used to take my friends when they are in town here. They are very short-staffed, I think both servers and kitchen. It was very empty on a Saturday morning when we arrived. Usually they are very busy during the weekend, about 45-1 hour wait. We got Eggy's Benedict, Eggy's Combo, Eggy's Crepe, and The Verb. Eggy's Benedict: very good, sweet & savory from pulled pork and waffle. Eggy's Combo: comes with eggs, sausage, bacon and pancakes. Pancakes were a bit dry and crunch, not very fluffy. Eggy's Crepe: was so so, crepes were a bit burn. The Verb: Didn't come with avocado even though it said so on the menu, and veggies were not evenly distributed in the omelet OJ: good, fresh squeezed It took a while for the food to come out despite the empty restaurant. Understand that they are short staffed, so the wait was ok. But quality of food should still be consistent. Was excited to come back here when i was in the twin cities, but i left a bit disappointed with the experience. read more

Breakfast tacos were crispy and everything they needed to be the star of the show for me was the crispy breakfast potatoes dipped in a sour cream, it was Bussin (as the kids say ). read more
Pretty sure your results may vary. Let's start with why they got this stellar review. I was spotting for a different Diner and they had just moved. I saw Eggys and thought hey... Chicago? So I stopped in. The wait person Sat me down in ten seconds. Places my order in two minutes. Received it in seven mn. Now to be fair... I came in at 10:30 AM when it was not very busy at all. The food was really good. Not greasy. I mean it tasted like what I make for my kids. And they had varieties of hot sauce. I ordered eggs over easy. Pancakes. Sausage. Bacon and coffee. The coffee is mediocre. Everything else was awesome. read more

I've ate at Eggy's probably three times now. My taste meter tells me this is a very standard breakfast spot, I guess I expected more out of it due to the hype of it. It is good. This place is ideal for those with a normal appetite. They offer sweet, salty and simple meals that anyone can enjoy. No big servings here. As a Mexican, their chilaquiles weren't my favorite and they don't compete with my expectation of what chilaquiles should taste like. Their salsa was tomato sauce, not a salsa. However, it's a tasty dish. read more
Presentation was wonderful, the food itself was good. I felt like there was so much that the flavors weren't balancing quite right in the Cobb salad. The cinnamon roll pancakes were good but you definitely need a sweet tooth to truly enjoy the dish. Staff was kind and the ambiance was okay, it felt a little too crowded because the tables were so close together. read more
If it wasn't for the two pesky flies hanging around the table, this place might have gotten an extra star. Despite the flies, the food was very good for breakfast and I enjoyed the coffee as well. My Greek omelette needed more feta, but still was very good and the highlight was the unusual potatoes served here. They were like smashed potatoes. read more
Do not ever go here. You will never, ever want to leave. The food is absolutely first-rate, the service excellent! Enjoyed a skillet/dish of their Corned Beef Hash, added extra eggs and I was in heaven. They make their own Corned Beef, so it's delicious. The home-fries are a nice compliment but I'm still a hash brown guy. Bottomless coffee, they leave a carafe on the table. Yum. Oh, and there's a parking garage next door, Eggy's validates for 90 minutes. read more

We've been excited to try this place for awhile. Our attempt each week to secure a reservation on a Sunday kept falling short. Here's the real reason. They don't take reservations on the weekend during 'prime' hours but that's not super clear on their website. So we just went. Noonish on a Sunday. Our timing was good and the wait was barely a blink. Street parking, so practice the winter parallel parking - good smells as we entered! So many choices. Difficult to make a decision, but also felt like there were no wrong ones. Opted for the savory - pulled pork nachos and country Benedict. Both were average. We thought the sausage could have been upgraded from the standard patty to a local co-partnership and the scrambled egg had a weird (off-putting) fake butter flavor. Service was superb - she kept the coffee flowing! Bathrooms were clean. Carded at the door + and payment via QR Code + Only other thought/recommendation would be to mock-mimosas and other non-alcoholic beverages (beyond coffee) for teetotalers. read more

If I could this a negative number I would. Elizabeth was the nastiest manager I've ever had the displeasure of interacting with. Our food was not up to par with standard sodium consumption laws. I had a salt mine on my plate. Don't even get me started on the OJ(not the killer). I've had better juice for less than what I was robbed at this Mid-stablishment. Worst $10 spent. My friend didn't even finish his plate, only for him to get yelled at by Elizabeth (manager) about how he should've said something earlier. Its not our job to detect the salt content in our food. A couple other friends of ours didn't even eat. The "crepe" could be considered an omelette with the amount of eggs that were in it. The yogurt was warm. On top of that, she wouldn't let us leave the restaurant. All we wanted was to pay and go, She sent the waiters and cooks to us to speak to them and tell them how they failed at their job. This was either a form of humiliating them, or an attempt to manipulate us. She sent the Spanish speaking staff to speak to us. Almost as if she was assuming we didn't speak good English. She made one of the servers cry due to this and made a whole scene at the restaurant. Not only do I not recommend eating here, I would also stay away from working at an abusive workplace where the manager banters at the customer. Like it or not, we gave you business, paid and were still treated like garbage. read more
Helllo Ok i gave Eggy's 4 stars! I would love to give it more but can't. It is a cute little restaurant down by Loring Park. The staff id friendly but served a little different. You are sat at your table and then go up to the bar to order. So really no wait staff. The seating is very tight as well. If you don't mind feeling like others are at your table then you will be fine. The food!!! I has a Gyro egg skillet! Yum Yum. And my wife had very good gluten free pancakes with strawberries and a lemon sauce. Great place just wish it was not that tight and a little slow. Staff was nice though!! read more
