Found this place via Yelp, having recently moved to the area from out of state we were keen to locate a good "go to for breakfast". We found it! Ordered the Egg Sandwich and my wife had the Nicks Omelet. We both had coffee. We sat on the outdoor patio, as inside was a little jammed, it was a beautiful morning out there. Coffee was quickly served up and flowed freely for our entire visit. Breakfast arrived within 10 minutes and was HUGE....especially the wife's omelet! Everything was very tasty, perfectly cooked and she took probably 2/3rds of it home! The bill was very reasonable, the staff were great, the food was exceptional... We WILL be back read more

After spotting this place right off Bagdad Road and reading through some Yelp Elite reviews, we decided to give it a try. We were greeted warmly and seated right away, which is always a great start. Our waitress was attentive and brought out waters quickly. The menu is very reasonably priced, which is a nice bonus these days. I ordered the biscuits and gravy ($6.99), and my son went with bacon and eggs, hashbrowns, and a biscuit. He felt his plate leaned a bit on the greasy side, and after trying his bacon, I'd agree it was slightly undercooked for my taste. That said, the biscuits and gravy were the star of the table. Absolutely delicious and something I'd come back for. The only small downside was that it felt a little chilly inside. Overall, friendly service, great prices, and a standout dish make this a solid spot worth read more

Lisa is a very sweet and professional server. I think she is a newer member of the team as I had not met her before yesterday. It was very good to see that many of the same servers are still there and have been from the beginning. I went at the perfect time in between breakfast and lunch. It happened to be very convenient as my doctor is in the same shopping center, and I had a fasting lab draw so came over for coffee and a late breakfast afterwards. Nick has good seating capacity, especially considering it is a breakfast and lunch restaurant. When he is not back in the kitchen Nick is out and about. I saw him talking with customers that were obviously routine, as well as checking on how customer meals were tasting to them. Up until 11 AM Nick has a $9.99 breakfast menu-kind of like an early bird special. Although I was only about three minutes away from 11 AM I requested to order off that menu and they were happy to accommodate. There are numerous choices and combinations that include just about everything on the regular breakfast menu perhaps in a bit of a smaller quantity. The breakfast I ordered was perfect for me. One egg over easy, one strip of bacon and one plump sausage, hashbrowns, and rye toast. To be quite honest, I could not even finish all of that! My breakfast arrived within minutes of ordering it. It was hot and fresh- I know from being a short order cook in my own home that if you're well organized, it's not difficult to get breakfast out fairly quickly. I also treated myself to a mocha extra hot. When it was delivered, Lisa advised if I needed a warm-up, she'd be happy to microwave it for me as sometimes their machine is just not as hot as customers want. I didn't find that necessary. I did feel that the mocha was not very sweet- I could've added sweetener or sugar along with additional creams that are always kept on the table. My hashbrowns were crispy and once I started eating them, it was hard to stop. My Overeasy Egg was done to perfection and generally, they do not salt and pepper as they allow you to do it at the table since it's such a preference thing among egg eaters. There's quite a mix of clientele, but it's quite evident that seniors love this place, including myself!! The link sausage was plump and juicy and quite delicious-a far cry from the links that are overdone and quite dry. The toast comes buttered, but you can always ask for more and they give you a couple of individual jellies. I always choose rye toast, but they have wheat and white available as well. I was not rushed at all and felt very comfortable, even though I was dining by myself. Lisa came by to check on me frequently enough to meet my needs. When she delivered the check, she told me there was no hurry whatsoever to take my time and that she would be my cashier. I found myself dining for about $20 including tax and tip. In today's economy, I feel like that's a steal!!!! Everyone there is so friendly, the food is great-- as is the atmosphere. They have specials every day and they always have new items listed on the whiteboard that's out by the door. I'll have to return and do a full review on lunch, but please be aware you can get either during their business hours, which end at 3 PM. Come on over to Leander and turn west on Crystal Falls Parkway (from 183 or 183A-Nick's Breakfast &Coffee will be on the right before you reach Bagdad Road. read more

My friends and I have been coming to Nick's since it opens. The restaurant is very clean and it's not loud like many of the others in the area. There are soft booths and window shades that dampen the sound. Wait staff are super nice and the kitchen staff are quick getting your food made and out. I go to order is the #3 that comes with eggs, 4 pieces of bacon, potato pancakes served with sour cream and apple sauce, and toast. Nick's continues to be on "My Keepers List" read more

Home away from home! Nicks has been a staple in our weekend routine since we moved to Leander last year. The servers are consistently sweet and accommodating, Nick the owner is always there to greet the guests and the food never disappoints. The food always needs a little salt and pepper for our liking but to me that's to accommodate anyone that comes in to dine. Our food always comes out quick and tastes fresh! We get plain coffee when we come and it never stops flowing the entire time we're eating. Skip the big chain breakfast spots and try nicks's! read more

Nick's is one of our go-to neighborhood breakfast/brunch spots. We were sad to see Guy's Italian restaurant go bye-bye, but Nick's is a great replacement for not only breakfast, brunch, and lunch. I usually order one of their skillets, and I always take home half of it for either lunch or for breakfast for dinner. We also ordered the corned beef hash, and it arrived with plenty of corned beef, and you could easily bring half home. I like that they also offer cafe lattes and cappuccino coffee options. They do have inexpensive breakfast options if you are going light. Every time we visit, we are always greeted as regulars (we are not), and service is always friendly and professional. The atmosphere reminds me of an ole school diner. If you are in the Cedar Park Leander area, do support Nick's! read more

This is a wonderful café in Leander. I've enjoyed breakfasts and lunch here, both in restaurant and to-go. Biscuits and gravy come with a large serving of gravy (yay!). Eggs have been cooked just right, French toast cooked to perfection. The BLT has a generous serving of bacon and fresh lettuce and tomatoes. Finally, the baklava is delicious! Ten out of ten! Service here is terrific. Servers don't hover, but are always on top of your needs. One thing to note: the rewards program is tied to credit card payments. So if you use cash, your account won't get credited. read more

We came to Nick's Breakfast and Coffee on a Sunday morning with our 4-month-old and luckily arrived just before the rush, so we didn't have to wait for a table. Our waitress (I didn't catch her name, but she had several piercings) was absolutely fabulous--attentive, friendly, and made the experience that much better. Full 5 stars for her! My husband ordered the Meat Lovers Skillet and enjoyed it. I had the Eggs Benedict with a side of biscuits and gravy. The biscuits and gravy were good, but unfortunately the Eggs Benedict missed the mark. The hollandaise sauce had no flavor at all--it tasted like it hadn't been seasoned, and I'm not sure if it wasn't made from scratch or just prepared without salt. Everything else, though, was solid and enjoyable. Overall, it was a pleasant breakfast spot with great service. read more

Nick's Breakfast Spot -- The Beautiful, Greasy Heart of a Real Diner Nick's isn't important because it's trendy. It's important because it exists--unchanged, unapologetic, and full of character. This is the kind of diner you'd expect to see in a Tarantino movie: a little rough around the edges, humming with stories, charisma dripping from the vinyl booths and coffee cups that have seen things. The menu is enormous. Alarmingly so. Normally, that's a red flag--the culinary equivalent of "we do everything, just not very well." And yet, somehow, Nick's pulls it off. I've yet to have a bad dish. Not a "meh," not a "could be better," just solid, honest food that shows up and does its job really well. This place feeds you like it cares about your future. Every plate is large enough to power you through an entire day, and you will have leftovers. The best part? They taste just as good--sometimes better--later. That's diner sorcery. Breakfast is the undeniable star. The French toast plate arrives looking like someone stacked twenty pounds of Texas toast, baptized it in powdered sugar, and surrounded it with eggs and bacon like loyal bodyguards. It's beautiful in a way only breakfast can be. And all of this--all of it--for under $15.00. In today's economy, that's practically an act of rebellion. The pricing is fair, almost generous, especially compared to other breakfast spots charging boutique prices for portion sizes that require a magnifying glass. I like supporting Nick's. As much as I enjoy places like First Watch, this is where I go now--because it's local, it's better, and it feels real. Nick's doesn't try to impress you. It just feeds you well, sends you home happy, and somehow becomes part of your routine before you realize it. That's not glitz. That's legacy. read more

The service was excellent once again. The food is fresh and cooked well. I got rye toast this time and it was the Jewish one verse marble which I prefer. Lots of crisp bacon and hashbrowns. The restaurant is clean with both indoor and outdoor seating. This morning was a little cool but this afternoon it will be warmer. So a great place to have breakfast if you are in the area. read more

First, I always appreciate the option for outdoor seating, which this place has. I appreciate that you can order breakfast while they are open. I am a breakfast all day kinda gal. Haha. The place is fairly cute and has plenty of seating. I ordered the country skillet and enjoyed it once it cooled down, it was very hot. The eggs were cooked perfectly, exactly as I wanted them cooked. The prices are decent. They have both Vanilla and Hazelnut flavored creamers here, which is another big win here. The server we had was friendly. read more

Alright, I can't deny, I woke up this morning thinking of breakfast here at Nicks. I absolutely love their value breakfast menu for $9.49. Today I enjoyed 1 egg, 2 hotcakes, 1 bacon and one of their delicious breakfast sausage. Service is always top notch, clean tables and endless coffee.

A great, down-to-earth brunch place in quiet Leander! I managed to make it out here with my BF who had been dying to go since it opened. We came by on a Sunday for a late breakfast, and didn't have to wait too long for a seat even though there was a busy crowd that morning! They offer cappuccinos which is nice, but my cup seemed to hold onto a bitter flavor. The portions are LARGE, so come with an appetite or expect to have a good amount of food leftover. The food was flavorful and delicious overall! I especially liked the crispiness of the hashbrowns. The staff were friendly and attentive as well. Next time I'm hungry and north of Austin, I don't mind visiting Nick's again! read more

Food - 4.5 Stars Service - 5 Stars Atmosphere - 4 Stars While I haven't tried them for lunch, this is a great place for breakfast! We have tried the French Toast, Pancakes, Gyro Omelet, Eggs, Bacon, and Sausage, and were not disappointed in any of them. We have found the service to be excellent, but they do get busy so the servers can get a bit overwhelmed (have a little patience, people!). On one visit, even "Mr. Nick" came out of the kitchen, walked over to our table (other tables, too), and asked how we were doing. A couple of things to be aware of........ 1. When they get busy, parking can be a bit limited, though never not available. You may just have to walk a little further. 2. Depending on what time you get there, there can be a fairly substantial wait for a table. 3. This is a "family" restaurant, so there are kids. Some parents do a great job watching their kids, some not so much. It's a little bit the luck of the draw as to whether you encounter well-behaved children and adults, or whether you are seated near an unruly bunch that were never taught manners, and obviously belong in a barn. read more

After reading reviews saying it got busy, we decided to go early (7am). We're early risers and the place we use to go to opens later so it is nice to have an early rising dine in cafe open. It was a nice surprise to see some familiar faces from another cafe we also visit. We ordered the meat lover skillet and the corn beef omelet. Husband was very satisfied with his skillet, generous portion that came with a choice of side. The omelet was with egg white (optional) that was cooked perfectly. I wasn't thrilled with the thin beef slices, I imagined more chunks of fresh corned beef but it was edible and with a side of French toast. Our first time experience was A+. Service was excellent, the food came out within 10 minutes after ordered, and piping hot. Overall, generously portioned, comparable prices, good food, they open early and location is convenient for us. We'll definitely be back to try other menu items, thank you! read more

The food here is wonderful. The Gyro breakfast plate #17 was perfect. Coffee excellent. We were a 3 top sitting outside. When the bill came however, we were charged for 4 coffees. I mentioned it to our server and she laughed it off as I handed her my card. She did not take it off. While I highly recommend coming here for breakfast, watch your back on the coffee count. One star for that. read more

I don't think we'll be back. It's changed. New cook? Probably. It was great. Went a couple weeks ago. I ordered a reuben. They actually soaked the rye in grease. And the thousand island was on the side. Who does these things? A cook that never made a rueben before. Meanwhile, one table over, a lady was picking stuff out of her pancakes. Really. Not a place I need to patronize. Maybe in a 6 months. Let them get trained again. (sigh) read more

I hate to have to give a bad review because the food here is very good, but I order to go usually and this is the 3rd time in a row that my order was wrong. I shouldn't have to double check my order before I leave. This isn't McDonalds. I simply ordered 2 potato and egg and cheese tacos. When I get to work to eat them, there are no potatoes. And I repeated my order twice. It was a simple order that yet once again was wrong. I am not sure I will ever order to go there again. Very frustrating. read more

Nick's Breakfast and Coffee is exactly what you'd expect from a classic, no-frills diner -- quick, simple, and easy on the wallet. I stopped in for a bite with a coworker and couldn't believe the prices. You don't see full breakfasts in the $5-$7 range anymore -- it felt like stepping back into the 90s in the best way. The food was straightforward and satisfying -- nothing fancy, but it hits the spot for what it is. The coffee was hot, fresh, and constantly refilled, which is all you can ask for from a spot like this. It's not trying to be gourmet, and that's exactly the charm. If you want a solid, affordable breakfast with friendly service and a little nostalgia, Nick's delivers. read more

Wow! Fantastic little diner scene! Great service and the food was awesome! Make sure to try the potato pancakes!!

Came in for lunch today. Specifically wanted onion rings that look like the picture on the menu but when my onion rings arrived at the table, they were nothing like the ones that were in the picture. The waiter was great. He wanted to fix the issue by giving us fries instead, which was fine. Very nice of him, but let's just say they are way better for breakfast and they are for lunch in my opinion. read more

Only been here once but I want to go back again! This place has that lovely small town feeling. I could tell that there are "regulars" and I'd like to be one. The food is simple yet bursting with flavor!! We'll be back soon. When I went my son had a breakfast sandwich and I had pancakes. The pancakes were not overly sweet and actually a little tart which I loved. read more

This was a big surprise for a breakfast place. I had a doctor's appointment in the area and to beat traffic left early to sit and have breakfast. When I arrived a few people were seated and two of the staff took care of me. I ordered pork sausage links, scrambled eggs, potato cakes and pancakes. The food was delicious and when I finally left, the place was filling out. Highly recommended and when in the area, I will stop by. Nick's is a keeper. read more

Second time coming to Nick's... and I received the same great service I got the first time! On this visit I tried one of the M-F $8.99 breakfast specials 1egg, hashbrowns, toast, but since I don't eat pork I added some fruit instead. It came out very quickly and was very tasty. "Adrenaline" was my server and she was a delight. Everyone at Nick's greets you with a smile and wants to ensure you have everything you need for a great meal and wonderful experience. I sat outside this time to enjoy the sunshine and cool breeze. There are a couple nearby trees that provide shade depending on the time of day. And there's also a pretty large umbrella on the patio just in case. I'll return to Nick's for sure. read more

My husband found Nick's Breakfast and Coffee online. We are always excited to try a local place. We LOVE supporting local. We showed up about 1pm this Sunday and were sat immediately by a kind host. The menu has an exceptionally long list of items - this was my first clue. Typically when a restaurant has a large menu they don't have exceptional food. I hate to admit that I was right. My husband ordered the #1 and I ordered a fried egg burger. My husband said he was happy with his meal. He loved the eggs, ham, and sausage. He's not much for hash brown but I am. I dug right into his plate because he had a huge portion of hash brown. I was immediately underwhelmed because there was ZERO flavor. He let me try his eggs and I wasn't floored but they were better than the hash brown! As for my plate, the fried egg burger.... I don't recommend it. The burger, like the hash brown, was completely tasteless. It's like the cooks don't know what seasoning is... or even salt. The toppings for the burger came on the side and my onion just was not ready to be eaten so that made me sad. Maybe if I was starving I'd have thought of this place differently. I will say! This place has great portions. My burger was huge and I had quite a load of fries. My husband and I shared a pancake and this was probably my favorite part of the meal. Loaded up with butter and syrup it was just right. We haven't given up on Nick's! We'll be back and I hope I get something really worth eating next time. I hate to give it two stars but I truly can't give it 3. read more

A new breakfast spot that opened maybe a month or so ago. I decided to check it out and try it out since I had heard a lot of good things about it. The first thing I noticed was that there was a wait, but there wasn't an official wait to check in. I walked and was seated, but I was confused about who was there first. I just went with the flow because I was slightly confused. The wait staff was extra nice. We ordered our food, and he checked that we were well taken care of. He mentioned the reward system when he gave us the check and how to join. The restaurant itself is a decent size. They have multiple tables and booths. I got the chicken fried steak, and the food portion was pretty big. I did notice that my eggs and hash browns were not seasoned, and if they were, they were lacking. But I just added pepper and salt to it, and it was fine. The gravy was creamy and had good flavor. read more

Well, here's another 5-star review for Nick's. Calling all Leanderthals to support local and support Nick's! We stopped in for breakfast and could not be more pleased with our food and the excellent service. I had their corned beef hash egg Combo plate. I'm now good until dinner. The hash was one of the best I've had with chunks, yes chunks of corned beef, peppers, and onions. I opted for the bed of hash browns instead of grits. My eggs ordered over easy were over easy perfect. Plus one ordered the meat lovers skillet and it was a huge portion quoting her as her breakfast arrived "Could you just bring me a to-go box please"? Yes, half of the skillet is in the fridge. Service was fabulous from start to finish. Our coffee mugs were always full and we were offered coffee to go! We will be back for breakfast or lunch! Pro tip: They have breakfast specials if you are not famished and they are reasonably priced. read more

This was my mamas and my first time here! We got there around 9:45ish, and it was so busy, we love to see that at smaller businesses. We were greeted and sat at the bar within 10 minutes. It's a little noisy, as it would be at any breakfast spot. I think their was a mixup on which server would be serving us, so their was a little delay in ordering & checking out. The food was delicious and the plates are on the larger side, I couldn't finish mine! lol. The server made us aware she accidentally charged our card for a different table but then voided the ticket. It was $33 for 2 meals, a coffee and OJ! Great pricing. Overall everything was great, and I loved that it's close to home. read more
