    Mixed berry french toast
    Leah M.

    The rating on Yelp convinced me and the one lowest rated review, I SHOULD HAVE PAID ATTENTION TO! This one review said the food was cold, same here. Let's start from the beginning. When I arrived one person was leaving, they were waiting on a party of 10, I WAS ALONE! The service was pleasant but slow. The restaurant is small, neat but nicely decorated. Cold food is a turn off to most but since this is a small business personally I will give its pass. I said nothing but, MOST PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE COLD FOOD! The French Toast was good and worth the price but there was no reason to serve cold food to the one person dining. On the other hand the coffee was hot and strong thankfully not bitter, it was good. The menu has a pretentious air for no reason. A Frou frou menu in a strip mall is a bit much, simple food with a twist is okay. The breakfast menu could be better as breakfast items are easy. I didn't see or hear about the chicken sausage everyone talked about. I'm happy with hiring choice of the young man (Steven?) it would be the only reason for my return.

    The service was great and the inside of the cafe is so quaint! My omelette was good, and the dessert and coffee were amazing

    Chicken Salad Sandwich
    Moira B.

    This is the cutest little cafe that we stopped in to for brunch recently. The service was very good and several of the menu items looked enticing. I had the chicken salad sandwich with a side salad. The salad was fresh and dressing delicious. The only reason not 5 stars is that the chicken salad was VERY salty. I love salty food but could see others finding this level of salt intolerable. Some other reviews look so good! I would love to come back and try more of the selection so I can update the review to 5 stars!

    We had brunch here this morning and everything was absolutely delicious. Not one complaint. The service was great. It's a small, comfortable, homey space. We will definitely be back. This was the best brunch we've had in a long time.

    Gouda fondue potatoes with mushrooms and bacon and eggs

    My daughter and three young grandsons and I had an absolutely wonderful brunch here this morning! My daughter got her usual breakfast - the fondue potatoes and eggs. She loves that dish. She ordered the grilled cheese and potatoes, French toast, and scrambled egg whites and potatoes for the boys. They really did a good job eating most of it all up. On typical outings with them, they barely touch their food so I was impressed on how quickly they gobbled this up. It was my first time there but I quickly settled on the corned beef Benedict. It was so good, and I loved that it came on a nice piece of sourdough - I never order Eggs Benedict because I don't really like English muffins that much. Anyway, this was really very good and I will likely order it again next time. It's a cute and quite small place, but the staff was very accommodating and efficient. Overall, it was a wonderful brunch and I can't wait to go there again sometime.

    Lemon Pound Cake French Toast & Breakfast Sandwich with Potatoes

    This cafe is a hole in the wall that I've driven past countless times in my life until I finally decided to stop in and I'm so glad I did! I've had the lemon pound cake French toast and it was amazing as well as the breakfast sandwich. I'd recommend getting the breakfast sandwich with bacon or sausage on it since it might give the sandwich the little piece I felt was missing. The cafe is tight on space and it appeared as though they had only one chef in the kitchen, however the staff was all nice and were able to seat us quickly on a Saturday for brunch. Additionally, the food got out to us relatively quickly despite the number of customers in the cafe. I'll definitely be returning here in the near future to try more!

    A special, the duck l'orange
    Melissa R.

    We love that this tiny restaurant is close by and while there are only about 10-12 tables, it's cozy and comfortable and is a BYOB, our favorite. Another plus is that the menu seems to be different from other restaurants with a variety of French dishes, and we appreciate that they are trying. Additionally, our server was warm and attentive. We started our meal with the roasted grape and arugula salad which was big enough to share. I decided to try the special which was the duck l'orange. I immediately had buyer's remorse as the portion was small and not very moist and had the skin on top. There were no sides except for the orange pieces and a bit of cabbage. Just an okay dish. My husband had the chicken and burrata. He had difficulty eating it as the stems were left on the grapes, and there were many little pieces that he kept having to pick off or spit out. We may give this local restaurant another try in the future, but we'll be careful how we order.

    We hosted a private event (30 people) here for a milestone birthday in March 2023. The food, service and ambiance were fantastic. The staff really worked collaboratively with us to customize a menu for the occasion. They are BYOB but helped with setting up the bar and had servers pouring the wine and after dinner drinks. Very reasonably priced especially considering the quality and quantity of food. Almost too much food quite frankly. The owner/manager is very easy to work with and is very knowledgeable about hosting mid-sized events. Highly recommend.

    Busy street corner but service was wonderful and it was nice to sit out in the sun. The French toast on challah bread was amazing. Perfectly fluffy with raspberries and fresh whipped cream - no regrets! Had a latte as well that was decent. Open for dine in and outdoor dining!

    mushroom gnocchi special

    Atypical presentations, good service, tasty food, pleasant atmosphere. We had the beet & fennel salad to share (which they kindly split onto two separate plates for us without even asking), the lamb kafta (basically a lamb burger with a tasty green sauce on top and crema underneath), goat ragu tagliatelle, and mushroom gnocchi. All very nice! I would have liked a couple slices of bread to soak up the sauces. For dessert, the chocolate pot de creme seemed a bit wrong as it was more like chocolate truffles, but it was good.

    Had the delicious roast pork/cole slaw/honey mustard sandwich. The only improvement I'd suggest…read morewould be to drain the pork more before putting it in the sandwich because the roll got soggy very quickly. Other than that, the sandwich was certainly one I would order again. Simple decor, welcoming staff, very comfortable whether you are alone or with a couple others, and outstanding service. Prices are fair.

When…read moreI swing back into town, whether for a quick few days or a leisurely couple of weeks, Rivalry is my absolute go-to. It's the perfect backdrop for reuniting with old friends over laughs and stories, or bumping into locals I haven't seen since my younger (more rowdier) days. The vibe is warm, welcoming, and quintessentially Media - right at the Orange Street corner of the iconic Media Courthouse. Jeez, jury duty must suddenly feel like a blessing when you can pop over for a midday lunch break! Now, let's talk food - Does Rivalry deliver! Their fresh hand made crab cakes are the best this side of Maryland: juicy, flavorful lumps of crab with just the right crisp, no filler nonsense. Paired with their other tasty dishes - think fresh salads, hearty sandwiches, and soups that never miss - every item on the menu is a hit. I've yet to try something that didn't leave me with a smile. The portions are generous, the service is friendly, and the prices feel like a steal for the quality. Make no mistake ALL made fresh. If you're in or near Media, do yourself a favor and make Rivalry your next stop. Whether you're a local, a visitor, or just fulfilling your civic duty nearby , this spot turns any occasion into a memorable one. Five stars all the way - can't wait for my next visit!

The service is amazing and…read morethe love the workers have for this place is palpable, they always make sure we have everything we need. Feels like a cute hole-in-the-wall place inside. I love the Omelettes, they're definitely above average, they come with fried potatoes and perfectly toasted/buttered bread. I love putting the omelette on top of the bread, so good! The perfect amount of food and I clean my plate everytime. Although, not enough for leftovers. I've gotten the 14 Hour Pork Butt Omelette and the Kennett Square Omelette. Both were delicious! My boyfriend and family have had the Huevos Rancheros--which looked amazing and I was told it was delicious. Looked like a lot of food too, so if you want something more filling and hearty, I'd get that over the omelettes. They've also had the breakfast sandwiches, which looked like a steal for the price and very good as well. The coffee, hot chocolate and tea is great too, and fairly priced! I get a drink every time, and they make sure you have refills, sugar, honey, whatever you want with it. Overall I recommend this place as a pretty good option if you're in Media!

    Today was a happy accident. Originally the search was for a place that we had assumed was in…read moreNewtown Square, but was actually in Newtown; much too far to go to for an impromptu breakfast unless we were prepared for a small trip. However, this is the circumstances that led me to Rolling Stars. Not knowing what to expect whatsoever, except that I read that they served bagels, I was blown away by the offerings and the quality of everything they have, and will definitely be coming back to try some other menu items in the near future! Not only do they make almost everything from scratch, homemade here, with the bagels obviously being their signature item, everything is fresh, bold and wonderful. They even have a daily soup that is prepared by hand, that is available all day long, even for breakfast. If you've read any of my other reviews, you know that this is a game changer for me. Their coffee drinks are very good, and while not the best I have had, they are fun, tasty and they will make special additions simply if you've ask. In my case I ordered a simple cappuccino but they added little heart sprinkles for Valentine's Day since it is upcoming, even though the drink doesn't have them. The biggest problem I had was trying to decide what to actually choose from the menu because I was faced with way too many options that I wanted. I ultimately went with "the Bella", a portobello sandwich, which comes on your choice of bread, or any of their bagels, of which I chose the egg everything. Within a few bites I knew that this was easily within the top three bagel sandwiches I had ever had, and I am very critical of bagels and have had a TON of bagels and bagel sandwiches, coming from a kosher deli family. I also had the soup of the day which was a brilliant chicken noodle with awesome large macaroni elbows that just totally kicked it up. In our entire visit we only encountered one thing that was bothersome and it wasn't with my food but with our table's, and this was likely due to expectations. The jalapeño cheddar bagel is simply a plain bagel with a slice of cheddar and diced jalapeños on top. Now it was still outstandingly delicious, but I feel like we were under the impression it would be cooked into the dough and the entirety of the bagel. This wasn't the case and I can't knock them for it because it was still fantastic; aesthetics be damned! You should definitely visit here if you have not been here yet, and I can guarantee you will be coming back again and again. I cannot wait to go back, and I didn't even touch on the crazy awesome bagel chips that come with nearly everything!
