Wow! Been visiting Flagler for 8 years. This time we brought another couple. She lived here for 2 years a few years back, and this was her go to. I had no idea this place was here, as we usually stay further out from the downtown/pier area. My friend said this was her favorite spot in Flagler. It was soooo good. We came in around 11:30 so we chose lunch. I had the pastrami sandwich and it was definitely on point! The portions were generous, the staff was very kind and efficient. The chili cheese dog is so enormous and loaded with toppings, it's a fork and knife deal. My husband loved it. Our friends had the bacon cheeseburger and the Monte Cristo sandwich. They both loved their meals as well! I know it sounds strange, but the have applesauce as a choice of one of your sides. My husband tried it, and he loved it. It wasn't really like what comes from a jar, it was more like large chunks of roasted apples. I was surprised it looked like it was made in house. The restaurant was clean and cute inside. The prices were very reasonable (definitely not "beach" prices). Give this nice place a try! read more

Wow I always love this place! Such a great menu. Great and quick service. I try not to be in a hurry and they always fill my coffee and I enjoy my morning there. Cute diner. It's like you see on tv but with a menu that has more range. read more

Many friends recommended Friends cafe saying it was a must in Flagler Beach. I really wasn't impressed, the service was good but the food just wasn't there. My burger was decent but my wife's Reuben was basically a sauerkraut sandwich with very thin bread. The restaurant itself has its own charm with license plates everywhere and sports banners but definitely needs a little TLC and dusting. read more

More than two thumbs up... this place is everything you'd want in a local mom-and-pop breakfast spot! As a Pennsylvanian, it felt like home with cream chipped beef, scrapple, and all the Philadelphia sports memorabilia--it was like dining in a Delco favorite. The servers were so friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast was both delicious and plentiful. I love this place! Go BIRDS Go PHILS read more

My husband and I decided to check out Friends Cafe for breakfast. Their sign says "Come in as strangers leave as Friends". Unfortunately very misleading, we came in, seated ourselves we were brought menus but were not greeted. The lady asked what do you want to drink? My husband ordered a coffee, I just had water. Another lady came and asked what we wanted to order. I ordered sausage and cheese omelette which came with home fries. My husband ordered the Belgian waffle with 2 eggs over easy and bacon. Our food was brought out, it was ok. My omelette wasn't a true omelette it was 2 halves of cooked eggs put together with cheese in the middle. My husband said nothing special about his waffle. We had no idea that our bill was put on table under a plate when our food was brought out. We did enjoy looking at all the different license plates on the walls. Happy we checked it out but nothing there as far as food or service would want us to come back. read more

Best Breakfast Place in Flagler County!!! Service more like a family vibe, not a business... You'll not find better... We go as often as u can get out if cooking myself read more

Tried visiting today, but left. We waited to be seated but were but were never even acknowledged. They were busy but a simple "hey I'll be right with you" would have sufficed. The waitress walked passed us a couple times, never said a word. The lady at the bar kept looking at us, never said a word. Then these other people came in, grabbed their own menus and sat themselves. There was no sign to seat yourself so if that's how it is, we weren't aware. Kinda ironic experience considering the establishment name. read more

Friends cafe was an amazing experience, the decor is nice, really liked the license plates from all over the world. My wife and I had fun picking them out. Saw one of the oldest plates, I think it was from 1914-ish. Staff were super friendly and patient with us ordering. The omelette was big and filling, though my wife and I added an extra egg for protein. The French toast was delicious. Definitely would recommend! read more

Breakfast at my favorite place finally with the hubby my dad and Big brother best breakfast in Flagler. This cute little place has to be one of my favorite places for breakfast. Anytime you go in the service is great and everyone remembers you by name. We've been here so much that I don't even have to have a menu and the waitress Mikey always knows what I want. Great food great service, great people read more

Good down home food. Friendly staff and overall good experience. Close to hotel and beach.

I wanted to love this place but my eggs in the eggs Benedict were seriously under cooked - cut into them and clear gooey egg white was there. My family's dishes were good though, no complaints there, and the hash was really good - nice and crispy on the edges. The sausage gravy is a little heavy on the pepper which my son enjoyed, but I thought dominates the dish too much. The eggs over medium were cooked like a normal 'over easy' - runny yolks but whites cooked. Maybe the cook just makes all the eggs a little on the raw side? It is a cute little spot and the prices are very reasonable, I would go back but I would order just basics and asked that the eggs be cooked a little more. read more

Not romantic, nor are there any nice views, except for the person across the table. Foods OK, not terribly expensive for a beach joint.

I brought my father to friends for breakfast, we ordered our food and when it was brought out to us, there was a hair in my food and a thumbprint in my father's omelet. The service was OK at best. I would not recommend friends restaurant to my friends. read more

I am so glad I checked with Yelp on this one. What a cute little gem. Very small town vibe. On our first try they must have been really busy because we waited a bit for someone to clean a table and then when we sat down we weren't sure who was serving us but that's okay. They were all friendly and the food was good and hot. The menu had a bit of everything on it. You will not be disappointed. read more

Such a friendly happy atmosphere as you walk in, It got friendlier as we continued to our table. The decor was walls were decked with fun license plates and car photos. I had the banana walnut pancakes and boy were they ever good The food portions were generous and tasted excellent. Waitstaff were nice, we loved it so much we went back for breakfast the next day. read more

Friends Cafe is a wonderful little eatery with a small town vibe and a wholesome feel. The staff is super-friendly and welcoming - although this was our first time in, we were treated like regulars during our visit. Come on in and seat yourself - don't be shy! Cristal was our server, and she was very friendly and talkative. We had some questions about the breakfast menu (which is quite extensive, by the way), and she was happy to answer them. Coffee and tea were in front of us very quickly after arriving, and our food only a few minutes later! Wow! The food was great, and our time spent here was very enjoyable. After our meal, we proceeded to the front and paid our bill - no fancy pay-at-the-table devices here! Very quaint, very charming - will be back! read more

Waitresses were anything but friendly. Mid meal she took my sweet tea and never brought it back. Scrambled eggs were mushy and to top it off I found a brown hair inside of my pancake. I'm glad I tried this place but will never go back. read more

This is a great local breakfast diner. One wall is decorated with law enforcement uniform patches. The staff is friendly and seems to know the locals well. Food was good. Price was reasonable. Need to have hot sauce available. I would definitely return for another delicious breakfast. read more

It seems like a nice restaurant we were seated right away, but we sat there for probably 10 to 15 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us and we had two little kids so ordering quickly was of the essence. When we were finally got our order, the food took forever to get there our waitress who served us was nice but everybody else acted like we were just a pain to be sitting in their restaurant.. the food was fine, but I would not recommend it because of the poor service-we didn't have silverware either and it took about 10 minutes to find silverware.. read more

Not sure about the fuss, this is just an OK breakfast joint. We've been maybe four times now, and to be honest, there are much better breakfast options. Just had the hamburger breakfast special, only ate maybe half. That said, the grits were excellent, so YMMV. Can't say we will be back. read more

Much better than your classic diner breakfast- pancakes, belgian waffles and eggs benedict. Big breakfast menu and the quality to back it up. Service top notch, when you get a coffee refill before the food arrives. read more

I had read that this cafe was rated Flagler Beach's best spot for breakfast, so I wanted to try it out for myself. It didn't disappoint! I had a great experience here and thought that the service and food was on point. I was especially impressed with how they worked a very busy room, while remaining professional and friendly with the customers they were serving. Kudos to them for being so efficient! We ordered the "The Mess" and "Loaded Philly Cheesesteak" omelets, which came out in no time! Both were fresh and very tasty. Note: I would have liked for the Philly cheesesteak omelet to be a bit more on the saltier side, but that's what the salt & pepper shakers on the table were for haha. read more

This little cafe is a gem here in Flagler. We discovered it Saturday morning but ended up eating there Sunday as well while we were in town. My husband and I both loved the crab cake Benedict! The ice tea was so fresh, my son ordered a breakfast burrito and loved it. If you want a really great breakfast I definitely suggest this cafe , you can't go wrong! Oh did I mention the bathroom was very clean?!! 5 stars all around! read more

Great local restaurant. Nothing fancy but good food, great staff and reasonable prices. Whole restaurant decorated with license plates. If you are from Philly area added bonus owner is an Eagles fan. We felt right at home.. Even had Hatfield scrapple which was excellent. Staff very friendly and welcoming and food was really good. read more

BEWARE of this place. You will be discriminated and treated poorly if you're poc. I had the worst experience with my family and felt so discriminated against. The two waitresses were absolute nightmares so much so that my husband who is usually a passive guy had to stand up for me for asking a simple question. I will never recommend this place to anyone I know. Place also smells really bad .. I'm from out of town and I've never experienced such horrible service in a place and we travel a lot. Shame on this business ! read more

Went here for the first time this morning for breakfast. Not really sure about going back. My meal literally had zero taste to it. I was very disappointed in the Hallendaise sauce on top, bc no taste at all. Like an ingredient was missing! Anyway, a lot of nice ppl and a thriving business, and that's great. And that's what counts. I'm just a foodie and just wasn't thrilled. read more
