Loved this so much, we went back for a second day! Chicken and waffles, egg platters, delicious grits and all the breakfast staples you need. A fun eclectic breakfast bar vibe with a huge appreciative nod to our military, this place was great. Thanks to the staff for the courtesy and friendly service!

Eggs Benedict with Shrimp Cakes, home fries, blueberry pancakes

Staff were really friendly! A husband and wife duo run the place and they were absolutely delightful as well as the rest of the staff! The inside was very nice and the food was AMAZING. They also offer a 10% discount to military and first responders. If I'm ever in Daytona again I will definitely be back!

Loved Monkey Morning Cafe! We were in the Daytona area for a military ball and happened to find this gem of a breakfast/lunch spot! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was fun, and the service and employees were amazing! Overall great experience! We enjoyed it so much we went back the second morning! If you are in the area, you should definitely check out the Monkey Morning Cafe! 10 out of 10!

Rye Toast, over easy eggs, Bacon, Home Fries, Mimosas
Carmen M.

Very casual! Food was Great! Mimosas were huge for only seven dollars. You can pick your choice of either orange juice, cranberry or pineapple or mix them like I did with pineapple and cranberry juice very friendly. We walked in with our Philly Eagles Jerseys on and the hostess tells me that their kitchen manager Angel is a big Waglea fan! They even played the Eagles song on and there were a few Bords fans! Angel came out and yelled "Go Birds" as we replied as well! We had a very fun time here. Can't wait to go back but this time for lunch so we can tried the Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich! Go Birds!!

Can't Decide

Popped in for a quick bite and really glad we did. Love that the owners were on site and working right along with their staff, how cool is that!! My wife got the Chicken & Waffle with a side egg and side of fruit. The egg was perfectly over medium. The fruit was fresh and still had snap but whoever cut the pineapple needs to learn what the core looks like and to chuck it, even the waitress was a bit shocked and said yeah that's obviously core. The waffle had a good crunch but was just slightly doughy inside, another few seconds in the iron would've been perfect. The chicken was supposed to be 2 tenders but was a breast instead, a little rubbery and the breading was too salty. She said we can eat here again but she knows what she won't order. I got the Can't Decide and chose bacon, biscuit & gravy to go with the egg. Egg was perfectly over medium, bacon wonderfully crisp, hash browns crisp and the pull they used wasn't too old and the gravy was smooth with no clumps and perfectly peppered. The biscuit was "off" (LOL, I'm not sure how else to word it) it was like it was 2 super thin biscuits one on top of the other instead of 1 fluffy one. Couldn't totally see the separation due to gravy quantity but could kinda tell on my fork and could definitely tell on my tongue. Whatever it was the one on top had a nice crispy outer and both were that perfect mix of flour and salt. Upon leaving my wife looked at the receipt and got fairly teed. Thev online menu shows free refills for sweet tea and $1 refills on juice. We each had a refill and paid full price. We hope when you visit that the owner is there and Kokomo comes on the radio. LOL it was breakfast and a sing along. For the atmosphere and the service we will return here at some point. We'll just keep a super close eye on the check and the wife will make a different choice. All in all though, decent food, great people, check it out

If you're in Daytona Beach and love wings, you absolutely have to try Bethune Grill. The wings come…read moreout hot, fresh, perfectly crispy, and the sauces are incredibly sticky, flavorful, and addictive. Every bite is packed with flavor -- the kind of wings that make you keep reaching back into the basket without even thinking about it. They're seriously irresistible, and you'll definitely find yourself coming back for more. Bethune Grill also participates in the annual Battle of the Bros Chicken Wing Festival, which is an awesome event if you're a wing fan. Dozens of wing spots come together and serve unlimited wings so you can try flavors from all over. If you're planning to be in Daytona, I highly recommend checking it out. The 2026 festival will be held at the Tanger Outlets in July, and it's a must-visit event for anyone who loves great food. And before you go, make sure you stop by Bethune Grill -- if you're ready to try some of the best wings in Florida, this is the place to start. Prices are pretty affordable. Check their website for their full menu and pricing.

We saw this place on TikTok and decided to visit while in Daytona Beach…read more The service was amazing, very hospitable people! Food on the other hand was very disappointing! Our order: Sister and bil: 2 -12 piece honey wing combos (no drinks included Sister rated wings 7.5/10 BIL rated wings 7/10 fries 4/10 ranch 0/10 Our order: 10 piece mix reg fried and buffalo: fried wings lacked seasoning 0/10 and buffalo was just regular buffalo wings 4/10 Fries hard/lacked any seasoning 2/10 10 piece honey and buffalo wings 7/10 honey and 4/10 buffalo 3pc buffalo tender: 3.5/10 just a frozen precooked tender fried and drowned in buffalo sauce with a side of horrible ranch 0/10 Pork chop sandwich: 2.5/10 unseasoned, overcooked for a thin cut pork chop, ranch added to container for the sandwich vs any other condiments. Everyone agreed the honey wings saved the day! Overall, the prices are good, the place is busy which is a great thing, there is a sitting area if you want to dine in but it seems more of a grab and go as a space saver Many reviews stated it's worthy of driving a distance for. This may be true, everyone's pallets are different. We came, we tried it, we wouldn't go back.
