YUM. Their potatoes that come with almost every meal are GREAT. I used to always get the eggs florentine and it would never disappoint! I started getting their version of pork roll, egg, and cheese on a croissant and that too is awesome. My sister also gets an omlette and then asks them to put it in a wrap. She's always pleasantly satisfied with how it turns out! Their coffee is also great and the aesthetic is super cool. Definitely worth going! read more

I am so picky about my breakfast and this place does not disappoint. I have passed this going into seaside for two years now and have always wanted to stop. Weekends seem busy but we came on a Friday around 10 in the off-season and there was no wait. First off the women at the counter were beyond pleasant and so attentive and very sweet. They really made the experience top notch. I got the eggs bennies with sausage instead of ham and OMG! Eggs were cooked perfect and sausage and hollandaise was so good, potatoes were cubed not hashed and were perfection. I also couldn't resist a short stack of blueberry pancakes and seriously they were some of the best I have had in a long time. I took most of those home but the cake part was flavorful and the price couldn't be beat. I don't have any pics of what I ate because it was that good and I was starving. Just trust me this place doesn't disappoint. Will definitely be back! read more

Just stopped in for take out. Staff was super nice. Food was ready in a timely fashion and very tasty too.

food was not good. found pubic hair in out eggs not food do not recommend don't go here

It was delicious but the French toast was soggy and had no flavor. Pancakes were excellent. Benedict was outstanding!

Found this place on our way to seaside heights and decided to try it. The food is great and good portions! The staff is very friendly and food comes out fast so no need to wait. Definitely will be coming back here! read more

Yummm best egg benedict with homefries I've had here in Jersey so far !! Unfortunately I live 2 hours away but when I am down here defiantly will be my go to spot !! My husband had the 2 egg breakfast with a side of bacon. Also the best bacon I've had as well . Crispy and juicy !! Service was fast, excellent and the interior is cool & unique . Wish I had more room to try the pumpkin pancakes(seasonal) , Next time ! read more

Got the fast break omelette and requested salad instead of their home fries and toast. I was charged extra for the request and literally got two pieces of small ass lettuce as my salad. If you want big portions I wouldn't go here. I live in toms river and if you're looking for a good breakfast place, C & G's is a million times better. If I could give two and a half stars I would. I'm all for supporting small businesses and family owned restaurants but in this case I would even prefer IHOP over Fast Break. My breakfast experience is a priority and if I don't leave with a hearty smile, full stomach, and a nice bout of energy, I take it very personally. UPDATE: the owner went out of her way to contact me which shows how much she really cares about her restaurant as well as her customers. I may have written this review during an emotion-driven state. While my opinion is bias (obviously) I really appreciate the owner taking the time out of her day to contact me. I recommend you guys to try this place out yourselves and make your own executive decision. I'm sure the restaurant is great and there are probably a lot of savory foods on the menu that I have yet to try, it just isn't my #1 choice in breakfast restaurants. read more

Great place to eat. Consistent with good meals and smiling energetic service. The food is clean and bright, and taste delicious. I have had both breakfast and lunch and both were excellent. I love good coffee also and it's always fresh, hot, and tasty. read more

I got the "healthy human" and my husband got the "big". Both of us enjoyed these meals. They were brought out fairly quick as well. The music was good. Our waiter was extremely nice and helpful as well. 10/10 would recommend to a friend read more

Long time frequent customer of this homey, hip diner. Impeccable countertop service. I personally recommend the homemade corned beef hash omelet. Along with their fresh squeezed oj and always fresh coffee, any breakfast or lunch dish is worth a try here. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for years and I'm so glad I did. Delicious breakfast and AMAZING service from Tatiana who was kind, funny, charming, and extremely attentive. 5 Star experience all around and I will certainly return. Thank you Tatiana for a great start to the day. read more

Best breakfast in area. I cross the bridge to get here, it's that good! Friendly atmosphere and great service. Always pleasant and consistent. read more

I like the service better than the food. That isn't to say the food is bad but I have been to many other breakfast spots that I am eager to go to and really enjoy. This place is friendly and the food is good but it's standard. read more

Best pancakes in New Jersey (if not the rest of the universe)! It is the tragedy of Ocean County that there are few restaurants worth going to. Thank goodness for Fast Break! The food is delicious and well-priced. Again, the pancakes are second to none; they are fluffy, heavenly, and never dry (I would say "moist", but I know that sends people into fits of rage). Another wonderful thing about this place is the decor which is funky and clever, curated to feel like home. Fast Break has a lot of heart and soul, and it is evident by the friendly staff, delectable food, and colorful interior. read more

One of my favorite places to eat the staff is great everyone is so friendly and they have freshly squeezed oj

Highly recommend the cinnamon raisin challah French toast. And so happy to find a place that serves scrapple that is thin and crispy. Yum

This is a pretty cool little breakfast stop. The food was cheap and good. read more

This has become my favorite breakfast nook. The place has been there since I was a kid, although passed around in owners, the present crew has got it going. The food is good, decent portions and prices are good. The draw here besides the food is the service, very friendly and its sincere. Not just fake smiles and you can tell they have a loyal clientele, Nothing fancy, but the design is a 70's retro design and hey ...its just cool ! One of the few places that still makes home fries like mom, dam their good, my only suggestion is a bigger portion of them. I wish they bottled their fresh squeezed OJ , Id buy them! Its that good!. I Have not tried lunch there yet, but i've seen other people eating lunch and the burgers and sandwiches look good. read more

Trying new places and when I went into this restaurant I tried the Cuban sandwich and it was delicious. I didn't know how it was going be for diner food, but I was impressed. I give it a ten. Excellent sandwich and the steak fries are on the money. read more

Very service and atmosphere made it that much more enjoyable. Took my mother here because it is one of her favorite spots. Got the tropical waffle, and it was amazing. Mom got Pumpkin pancakes, they were oh so soft and fluffy. Definitely will come back read more

Fast Break - Tropical Belgian waffle and pumpkin pancakes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

The place is okay. Food is really average but I had to lower to two stars because all of our meals (6) were closer to cold than warm or hot. When the diner is full, it is extremely noisy. If you have sensitive hearing, definitely not the place to go. They would benefit greatly from acoustic panels. Conveniently located on 37. Staff was really friendly. read more

My family loves this place! We highly recommend it! We stop at this establishment each time we go to Beach Island State Park and all we can say that their food is delicious- their French toast, omelettes, pancakes, Cuban sandwiches, chicken BLTs, sloppy joes, cheeseburgers; all is top notch. The service is always great and everybody who works there is super nice. If you are in the neighborhood and feeling hungry then you should definitely check this place out; trust me on this;) read more

Amazing food and amazing customer service. Everyone is very attentive and polite. The atmosphere is fun and relaxing and most of all you feel like you are at home. Food is AMAZING! When you need some good food. Come here read more

We went here because Shut Up and Eat had a really long wait. We're glad we did! The restaurant is really cute. It's big enough that you won't have to wait for too long even if there is a line. The staff is very friendly! Food is decently priced. Would go back! I had a veggie omelette in a wrap that had cream cheese in it! Chocolate chip pancakes which were yummy. And freshly squeezed orange juice which I don't think was actually fresh so that was a bit disappointing. Wish I had coffee instead! read more

I love this place, the food and staff! The orange juice is fresh squeezed. My favorite is the Eggs Florentine, but everything on the menu is great. read more

Excellent traditional breakfast food with a few extra surprises like the breakfast quesadilla or delicious omlettes. Friendly staff and nice dinner atmosphere. read more

This place gets very busy so you know the food is good! The only issue is that it's a very small diner and the hostess had a difficult time remembering who was still waiting and in what order. It just seemed unorganized and chaotic which was made worse by the tight space and morning rush. Still, good food. read more

Overpriced. I like the fresh squeezed OJ and the food was basic breakfast food but not much seating or atmosphere. I won't go back.

This is one of those places we had been meaning to try, but had other other "staple" breakfast places so we never got around to it. One day, our normal place wasn't accepting credit cards and we had no cash so we took the opportunity to try Fast Break. Now, Fast Break is our new go to place!! Prices are reasonable, service is great, and the food is delicious. I've had both breakfast and lunch and both have been out of this world. We've even brought family here from out of town, it's just that good! So definitely 100% recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable and delicious breakfast/lunch! read more

This place is super cute and I finally had an opportunity to go in and try it out. I have to say that in the 20 years I have lived in the area, I've never seen the place open but they assured me that they're definitely open everyday! So my mom and I came for breakfast one morning and I got the Happy Herman - so so good! It was a sausage, egg and cheese sandwich with breakfast potatoes inside and on the side. I never thought breakfast potatoes on a sandwich before now and I'm obsessed! I can't wait to go back!! read more

Always friendly. Food is fantastic and cheap. Service is fast. Aroma is fun. Expect a wait

I've come here three times. The first time was so-so service, but the food was great so i chose to go again. I love this place, they dont put much effort into the presentation but their food is amazing. The chile is to die for. I definitely recommend it as some thing to try during your stay at the Jersey shore read more

Great food, phenomenal service and very friendly staff. I will definitely be coming back.

Great laid back place to enjoy breakfast and lunch! Really welcoming and nice employees! Great food!

I stopped in on MDW and wow, talk about being overwhelmed! There was absolutely no system in there besides chaos! It seemed like there was a lot of new people, but still, the lack of training in prep for a holiday weekend couldn't have been any more obvious. We sat at the counter & must have waited close to 10 min before someone even looked in our direction to acknowledge us. The only reason this place got 2 stars was because of the 2 cooks who actually knew what they was doing! Meanwhile, waitstaff was preoccupied by their toaster more than customer service. As if the Egyptian decor in a 50s looking diner wasn't enough to make your head spin, just try watching the waitstaff. I'm all for supporting local business, but I will not be returning to this one. read more

Great food at a really good price. Try the Piggy Joe. It is a classic. It should be on the Guy Fieri show

This place was an amazing find for breakfast. At first the pics made me feel like it was a cramped cafeteria, but that's not the case at all. The walls are turquoise which made it bright and homely like a family breakfast. We picked our own table and got service right away. The menu was very fairly priced and once we tasted the food, we were definitely sold! They specialize in breakfast/lunch and it shows!! Great breakfast, service, and vibe. read more

Really good breakfast food and friendly attentive service. Its not a five star restaurant obviously but they do what they do at a 5 star level. We had 3 kids with us and the server brought their food faster because kids at a table in any restaurant is a disaster waiting to happen. We had breakfast quesadilla, veggie omelette, the pork dorky??? Sandwich a massive fruit cup andbchoc chip pancakes. All delicous and hot. Salsa for quesadilla was def homemade and delish. Will def go back read more
