    This is a busy place with a wide variety of food choices. A local establishment where people know each other, very friendly. The salad was big and delicious. The hamburger and French fries also good as well as the breakfast. The food was hot and served quickly. The waitress was very friendly. Something that I didn't like is the salad was served with another plate of food on top of the salad. The bottom of the plate isn't nice to have on your fresh food.

    Just tried the biscuits and gravy. And same as everything else -- absolutely delicious. The sausage was just sliced on top of the gravy but the flavors were terrific. And the gravy was smooth and not too heavy on the stomach. Of course the biscuits were as perfectly cooked as always.

    I got a suggestion from yelp to try Herby's kitchen so I did this morning. It was quite crowded at 10 am but were seated immediately. The menu has lots to choose from and I decided on the meat eaters omelette with crispy home fries and biscuit. The omelette was huge and stuffed with bacon ham and sausage. The home fries were very crispy like I asked for and were delicious however a little peppery. The biscuit was very flaky and tasted great. They seemed to have a problem bussing tables since several tables were still not bussed by the time we left. If you like big portions give this place a try.

    Breakfast. YES

    Nice spot!! Those who follow me know I love GRITS!!! Yes, they nailed it. The grits were so good there was no need of salt or butter add. I didn't like the waffle as it was not my type of batter but I think others would love it. The service was off the chain on a scale of excellent. My server was amazing. She checked in frequently to see how things were. She even asked if the grits were good!!! Loved it. Didn't have to ask for coffee refill, she asked. I love exceptional customer service. Did I mention the coffee was hot and fresh. For those who are COVID/pandemic/endemic cautious, there are no protocols. Overall a great spot and I highly recommend!!

    Came here on a lunch date and we both found it charming. I had heard good things about this relatively new place, mainly regarding the breakfast service, but both my husband and I wanted lunch, so we dined off that menu. We have definitely decided that we will be back for breakfast soon. (It only serves breakfast and lunch.) It's located off of E. Edgewood just a couple of doors down from Winn-Dixie and is very clean but frugal (smart) in design - shotgun style from the front to the back with tables on both sides, and a dividing wall on the far right with the register and then the kitchen. Almost diner-like in efficiency. Every person we encountered was incredibly pleasant and helpful. They seemed to have a lot of regulars there, greeting people by name, etc. But the waitress treated us just as kindly as she treated them, so it made us feel at home. You seat yourself, and there were plenty of seats to choose from, luckily, even though they were doing rather brisk service. Our orders were taken promptly. There were a couple of items that looked really good on the menu, but hubby chose the Meatball Hoagie and I the grilled chicken sandwich. His came with French fries, but I opted pay an up-charge and get the fried okra. Both orders arrived promptly and were piping hot. His Meatball Hoagie was a hit and he ate every bit. The fries were crispy and fluffy. My grilled chicken sandwich, while not as photogenic, was very tender and juicy, and I ate every bite. Those fried okra were perfect too. Crunchy outside and cooked to perfection inside. I ate it all. The price was right too. Granted, we could get slightly cheaper at a fast food place, but definitely NOT the quality or the excellent service. I highly recommend you check this out yourself if you are in the neighborhood.

    After picking up from FCA camp we went looking for something local and relatively quick and child friendly. We were very pleasantly surprised by this gem! We were greeted and seated quickly. The menu is a great size, not too big not too small. There is a variety of items and fit all our needs and wants. I got the meatloaf and two sides- Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes and gravy. The meatloaf was covered in sauce and that's my favorite part to go with my meatloaf. My sister got the adult grilled cheese- very cheesy, and the boys got spaghetti and meatballs and fries and chicken tenders and fries. Fries were perfectly cooked! For the 4 of us it was $25. Not only was the food so well priced but the price was just great! Try it out. I think you'll love it. We did do lunch, breakfast looked good as well! If we find ourselves in the area again, we would absolutely be back! Great family vibe!

    Let me start by saying I do not live in this area, but have been spending some time in the Lakeland area as of late and have been on the hunt for gems ... like Herby's Kitchen. My initial impression as we were walking toward Herby's Kitchen was that of a simple local diner. What a surprisingly awesome find it turned out to be. I had the Greek Style Hamburger, it's funny but I don't recall what other persons in our party ordered. Was not sure what to expect with my order, but I was thrilled with what I was served. Incredibly tasty, creative, and fresh (saying again fresh, not frozen, not out of a box, fresh). Imagine a melding of a Greek salad and a hamburger. Simply yummy. The service was friendly, neighborly in fact. We were welcomed as if we had been regulars since the day they opened their doors, which I have no idea when that was. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and uncrowded while sitting down. I do want to make a special mention about the art on the walls and photography in the restaurant ... they did this themselves, and it is fantastic. Compliments to the family photographer. The bottom line, we will be back and will drive across town to do so.

    We dined Friday, May 27, 2021. It being lunchtime My wife and I ordered the Greek hamburger which were terrific; we really love the olives and pepperoncini on the burger with the feta and the special mayonnaise. One of the best burgers I've ever had. My granddaughter decided to have a late breakfast; the breakfast menu is available until they close at 2:30. She really liked her scrambled eggs with cheese hash browns and the biscuit she said was the best one she's had. Service was quick and accurate, and staff were very friendly. The restaurant is very clean. Servers are no longer taking pandemic precautions beyond normal sanitation. Herby's continues to impress. It is now a go to lunch and breakfast spot for its good quality food and friendly service.

If you can find a way to get here though you absolutely should. I've been here a couple times and had people bring me things from here and I'm always very happy. My favorite thing I ever had here was a chocolate peanut butter pie, which was mind blowingly good. However, everything I've had from here has been pretty spectacular. I highly recommend the cookies here. I really love cookies, but their brown butter cookie is incredible. The pastries are really good too. I really enjoy the glazed croissant and I recently had a lemon twist that was very good. Finally, the sandwiches that I've had from here are both really good as well. I've only had the breakfast sandwiches, but I enjoyed the hot honey sausage biscuit and the bacon breakfast sandwich. 5 stars.

    The corned beef with cabbage sandwich was pretty good. The strawberry dessert muffin (or whatever…read moreit was called ) was a masterpiece of a dessert. The strawberry icing actually tasted like strawberries in the most amazing way possible. My only real criticism : The line system was a bit confusing and it seemed like online orders were priority over people that were actually there. At least that's how it appeared. Other than that WE WILL BE BACK!

The bacon was so overcooked as to be dry sticks that shattered into tiny bits when you tried to eat the sandwich. The fries were allegedly hand cut, but looked & tasted like (cold) seasoned frozen steak fries. The FSKB chicken salad croissant was just a soggy mess. And the eggs Benedict featured "Canadian Bacon", which is a US marketing term for round slices of bacon, not Back Bacon or Peameal Bacon that is actually served in Canada. Overpriced & not worth a second try.

The vibe is awesome with brick walls, tasteful decor, and pleasant music, and just what I look for in a local coffee shop. Prices are fairly reasonable with many drink and food options. Although there was a bit of line when I visited, it moved quickly and staff was efficient in getting ordered items out to guests. I went with a white mocha frappe (5/5), asking for it to be made less sweet. It's not something I ordinarily see on the menu at local coffee shops, so was delighted at how good it was, with just the right amount of sweetness to it. It's shame that there's nothing like it at coffee shops close to where I live, as it's something that'd be in my regular rotation of caffeinated drinks I'd order. As my friends and I enjoyed our experience here, I'd definitely return to Black & Brew, and would recommend them to others looking for a quality coffee shop in Lakeland.

The standout for me was the Holiday Ham breakfast sandwich, and it absolutely lived up to its name. Built on a flaky buttermilk biscuit, it layers a light, fluffy egg soufflé with thinly sliced ham, praline bacon that adds just the right touch of sweetness, and a cranberry orange jam that ties everything together with a bright, unexpected pop. Every bite tasted thoughtful and seasonal without being overcomplicated--comfort food elevated. I paired it with Jennie's Dolce seasonal espresso drink, and it was so good I immediately wanted another. Even more impressive? The second one tasted just as perfect as the first--a small detail that says a lot about their consistency and care behind the bar. The coffee shop ambience immediately stands out, with a relaxed yet polished vibe that makes it just as ideal for a casual morning as it is for catching up on work or meeting friends. Service was warm and efficient, and you can tell this place has become a staple in the downtown community. If you appreciate creative twists on classic breakfast favorites and expertly crafted coffee drinks, Black & Brew is well worth the stop. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

I started off with the fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn casserole, macaroni and cheese, chicken and dumpling soup and a soft sweet roll. And that was just plate number one. I'm not gonna go over every single thing I ate, but let's just say I truly think that this place is a must go to for dinner, lunch or breakfast. We enjoyed our dinner so much tonight that we are actually going back again tomorrow to do this again. The menu rotates and changes daily so there's plenty of food options and it is all you can eat. So my advice is simple. Go to this restaurant and go hungry and be ready to meet some really nice people and have a really good time.
