After moving to the area a year ago, this spot has been on bae and I's list for a minute. On this hot 90 degree day, it was the perfect place to hole in and enjoy a nice meal with a break from the scorching sun. It's a very pleasant and clean environment with a very friendly and attentive wait staff. As most diner's (I'd consider this a diner even though they call themselves a coffee shop lol) the menu was super extensive. With an all day breakfast option, you're left pondering your decision for a while. But judging by what we got and the tables next to us, you truly can't go wrong. Our food came out in about 15 minutes, was piping hot and fresh and portions were pretty hefty. (So hefty a table nearby shared a platter. If we didn't have different pallets today I would have recommended us to do the same) I settled on a bacon cheeseburger club which came with a pickle and coleslaw. I chose onion rings over french fries. Bae got a omelette with steak, peppers and onions, a side of home fries and buttery toast. He also got French toast which was offered an option of adding fruit or protein. He settled on plain. Everything was incredibly delicious and tasty. We're already planning to return lol read more

The new owners are amazing and the food is delicious. The service is great and they make you feel like they want you there. I get a lot of deliveries from here and everything is packed really well. They even wrap the coffee with plastic wrap so it won't spill. That goes a huge way with me because in a lot of places the coffee spills and then u don't get 3/4 of it and it's very irritating. The ambiance is great like any other diner, It's a small place but it doesn't matter cause you don't need a big place to make great food. You should def order delivery if your around the kings bridge and Jerome area read more

This place is a staple in the area. I came in after work starving, it's small and intimate. I ordered a turkey burger with onion rings. It was massive and delicious! I will be coming in more often to try other menu items. The owner was behind the counter he was genuinely a nice guy read more

Nicky's Coffee Shop - Turkey burger deluxe with onion rings - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bronx, New York

Good spot for breakfast. I came on a Saturday morning and it was busy, The food took a bit long to be brought to us, but like I said, it's was busy. Prices are great for the amount of food you get. The menu has a lot to offer which I think is good too. The food itself was good. Pretty basic diner food. I loved my breakfast. I got the pancake deluxe with two eggs and bacon. The pancakes were big! So like I said, good portion of food for the price. Definitely a good to spot around the area. It's not the biggest place , so plan ahead and get prepared to wait if you come in one of those busy days. But good ambiance over all! read more

Cash only Small diner with booths and counter seating. Large menu of options. I went in for breakfast and had a western omelette, home fries and toast. Quick service when I sat down and food was quick to be delivered. Food was typical diner fare so was t exceptional but just what I was expecting and plenty to fill me up. Owner knew regulars and asked about kids and family. read more

Maybe small location but real big on service and food. Great spot been going here since I was 10

This spot never disappoints , everything is well priced , the quality of the food for the price is excellent. Owner is very nice and presentable. The girl working there has a history of messing up orders but they make up for it every time so it ain't a big deal read more

Not much to say, it's a diner. Their food is good. I work at the hospital a few blocks away and my colleagues and I frequently order from them. By the way, the food comes so fast. My go to faves: Greek salad with crispy chicken, crispy chicken wrap with sweet potato fries/regular fries, and chicken and waffle. I've heard their veggie burger is tasty but I've not personally tried it. read more

DISGUSTING OWNER very rude I tried to abide by the rules and was having a private con to myself when the owner decided to put his opinion in what I was going through although I wasn't talking to him nor anyone in his establishment, and was talking at a low whisper. I spent money so that I can use the bathroom and he proceeded to belittle my purchase and tell me "I should fuck off" The people in this here are rude and do not care about the customers also the rice pudding I purchased (so I could use the bathroom), for 4.35 was DISGUSTING. read more

Good food. Great customer service. Also quick delivery service. Good prices. Clean and food is fresh.

This is my first time in New York & I had asked my husband I wanted iced coffee, this first caught my eye "Nickys Coffee Shop". Coffee was so good, coffee tasted fresh brewed! Later the week we were hungry he suggested to grab my iced coffee from here again & we were looking @ the menu, so we wanted to try the food! Was greeted & seated waitress was so nice. & the food was delicious! I would definitely recommend 11/10! read more

Nicky's Coffee Shop - French Toast Deluxe & Chicken & Waffles - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bronx, New York

so the establishment is a take on the traditional diner experience; with the ambience necessary for such. you step into this establishment and take two steps down into a nicky's dinner. you are greeted promptly and the the staff is rather agreeable; the issue is having to send my toast back because it was rather burned. i specifically asked it not well done when i ordered i suggest for them to make it light. well you could have thought i asked for a rib cage or a liver of the gentleman at the front, smh. i didn't want to create a unharmonious experience but i was propelled to not recommend this diner when the toast was finally ready an it was thrown in my direction without even a thank you come again. save you money and find a diner worth your time and will appreciate your patronage. i ordered homefries, eggs and toast.....the eggs was cafeteria made, the homefries were soggy an unappealing, an tasteless and the toast, well, i told u about that. read more

Food is always consistently good, service is great, good latte and cheap price but cash only.

Delicious food and coffee. The service is also very fast and the breakfast platters the best thing on the menu.

It's a diner, OK ...? lol It's fast & convienent. The burgers & french toast are my favorites. Both are excellent! By the way, five paragraph restaurant reviews that spend four paragraphs talking about the waiters are stupid. I don't interact with them that deeply: 1] I place my order. 2] I pay them. 3] I give a 20% tip. BingBangBoom, that's it. And easy with the complicated orders, OK? "Over-medium/hard brown eggs with light bran toast & lo-fat soy milk" they don't need. Just keep your order diner-centric. read more

Pretty good coffee shop in the Bronx on Bainbridge Avenue. I would come there for breakfast in the past alot when I still lived in the BX. -Corned Beef Hash (well done) with Scrambled Eggs is what I would normally order. Coffee is good as well. Nice mom and pop spot. read more

Best food when your high I swear it's made with nothing but love. I miss having Nicky's as a kid it was the best times in my life. Going to get breakfast from there before going to school. read more

Nice hot Monte Cristo sandwich for breakfast. That's how I roll (but on toast, not on a roll!). They seemed to have one server for the tables. I'd have appreciated one more, but I understand... i just had to wait a Lil bit longer than i liked for the check. Good experience though. read more

Well done little diamond in the rough. Family friendly and affordable simple tasty food Highly recommended read more

Smh my girl ordered from this establishment a couple days ago and what i received was not up to par. The home fries were soggy pieces of potatoes. Actually more like mash. The eggs seemed to be doused in pepper so the top was black. I don't know what or who was in the kitchen but they must've been feeling very lazy that morning. Shit Trash read more

I LOVE this place! Everything is affordable & comes with SO much food (which tastes amazing FYI). The staff is super friendly and welcoming. I absolutely recommend this place to everyone! read more

I order from here all the time and they're great! If you live nearby there is no delivery minimum so I oftentimes get a bacon egg and cheese. Its consistent, fast and reliable. read more

First time I've purchased food here, though I've worked in the neighborhood for ages. The other day, I ordered a well done steak sandwich from them - the result was smacking good! I also went for some home fries and sausages (I've been having a long craving for the same lately)... they provided me with a Yummy, and a large proportion plate!! The staff is courteous, very diligent, and the place has a homey feel. This certainly will be my favorite spot for home made takeouts! /rec read more

This is a cute little diner in the Bronx that has a friendly atmosphere, good, cheap food, and a "towny" type feel to it that is somehow charming. This restaurant is the textbook definition of DINER. Breakfast is available all day, the booths have that primary-color padding on them, the menus are printed and laminated with inexplicable water scenes on them. Your toast will come over-buttered, but in that way you expect from, and love about, diners. I went with four people and our bill (before tip) was less than $30. Can't beat that! There is also some fantastic people-watching going on here. If you're in the neighborhood and want a no-frills,typical diner experience that you remember from your high school days, this is the place to go! read more
