A five star diner is hard to come by, especially when I come from an undisputed champ of diners, SE Michigan. This railroad inspired place is cozy, but welcoming, and full of great smells. Immediate service and palatable coffee is nice as it immediately sets a good mood. I'm ready to wait and receive my usual of eggs over easy, cooked to death hashbrowns, sausage, and rye toast. In just a few minutes I'm welcomed with a gorgeous platter filled with local ingredients. That's the biggest advantage of Green Bay, it is surrounded by historic union farming that generates outrageously amazing product. Nicolet is quality, quality, quality. Every bite was amazing and to my order. For diners, some would say this is the only one I need. I'm saying it's the only one I want. read more

Great spot for our breakfast! We had the Belgian waffles, corned beef hash, and coffee. All was excellent and Megan was a great server who took care of us! The diner atmosphere was classic and very clean. read more

This place was amazing! We walked in and got seated right away even though they were very busy. The service was great and the food came out fast. I had the smokehouse breakfast platter which me personally would never do BBQ for breakfast but man was I wrong. That platter was very tasty everything was perfectly smoked and cooked with perfection. My brother has the chicken and waffle he said he liked it a lot. The people that work at the place seems like a family that brought all their friends on board which made for a great experience. Everyone that was working seemed happy and seems like they have great communication. Their energy was amazing. read more

Food was much better than expected ... and Cassandra provided great service. Wife had corned beef hash, far better than most and certainly homemade. My biscuits and gravy was great; excellent flavor, just a little light on the sausage. I would assume the excellent grilled Polish Sausage than came with it made all the difference. Will certainly be back. read more

Food was great. The portions are not giant but they're big enough to be filling. Service was quick. Lively, clean, local dinner that is only minutes away from the stadium. Triangle-shaped parking lot across the railroad tracks makes it a little tricky to get out but I still appreciate that there's parking. I would come back here the next time I'm in the area. read more

The food was much better than what I had expected. The ambience is older school diner, but the food is great! I ordered what was probably the best French toast of my life with strawberries. My partner ordered an omelette, which he enjoyed and said the consistency was really good (not a fan of runny or dry). We were also pleased with the prices, and the immediate seating on a busy weekend morning. We had previously been quoted 1-2hr wait times at other local restaurants. My only complaint is that I had to ask for a beverage refill and that I had to ask for maple syrup. read more

Nicolet Restaurant - French Toast with Strawberry - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - De Pere, Wisconsin

Very busy place and weirdly one of the only places that was open on New Year's Day on a game day Sunday. We hunted all over town before stopping here. I'm not upset with the place. Service was great even though they were stacked up with people. Food was exactly what you'd expect from a cafe type place as it wasn't amazing but wasn't awful at all. If I was ever in the area again I'd go back. read more

Went here early on a Sunday morning and it didn't disappoint. I love the Nicolet hollandaise sauce but I didn't want traditional Benedict so I ordered fries to dip in. :). Bacon was perfect the English muffin was on point, not dry like some places. Hubby ordered the Benedict and he loved it, the ham was browned on edges perfectly. We always ask for extra crispy potatoes with cheese and onions. Always hot and delicious. read more

Great spot. I'm a little mad at myself for not finding this before today. I had the farmers feed (double) and it was perfect. The parking is before the restaurant, so when you see the parking lot, pull in! Nice booths. Great counter with fast quick service. Check it out, bread was homemade, thick sliced and fantastic. read more

Nicolet Restaurant - Farmers Farmer's Feed Double - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - De Pere, Wisconsin

Such a wonderful place to grab breakfast. Not only is the food exceptional, the service is even better. Everyone is so friendly and attentive. Haven't had a breakfast experience this good and authentic in a minute! read more

Food is basic, not very yummy. Very loud and service is plain. Not really impressed and would not return.

The best food ever, the service was amazing and the mood very nice. Very good ambiance.

Tattoos and Piercings I order breakfast to go and when I went to pick up my food I was treated very poorly by the owner! He would not acknowledge me and kept on calling others up to pay! Many arrived after me. When I was finally the last person standing he left and asked someone to see what I needed!! You see...I have dreadlocks and many facial piercings and tattoos! He didn't want me in his restaurant! I am a 65 year old grandmother, not a Hell's Angel Biker! SHAME ON HIM!! read more

I love coming here for breakfast! I'm a huge fan of the classic breakfast platter- two eggs; overeasy, hashbrowns; extra crispy, bacon; floppy, and sourdough toast. Pair that with a cup of coffee? Heaven on earth. There's a little upcharge for the sourdough but it's worth it. Good atmosphere and servers with a great work ethic. I also recommend their "farmers feed". It's hashbrowns tossed together with all the breakfast fixings, holindaise sauce is extra but a MUST HAVE! read more

We like Nicolet and come here often for breakfast, crepes, burgers, pot roast sandwiches, blueberry malts, etc. Not their fault, but they might want to toss all the creamers and jams at the table next to ours. They did everything but individually lick every one. Parents did nothing. read more

Nicolet Restaurant - Two kids individually handling every. Single. Jam. And. Creamer. Most have been on the floor multiple times. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - De Pere, Wisconsin

The only positive is the relatively quick service at the bar. The food is greasy and nothing special. Hashbrowns are quite bad. This place is meant for people over the age of 60 that enjoy poor quality, bland food. Go to Black Honey Hashery instead. It's just across the river. read more

Easily one of the best diners in the area. If not the best! Usually stop in when I an in the mood for brunch. Today I was intrigued by the Tuesday Special which was Pot Roast. So glad I deviated from my norm (not that their breakfast us not good). The Pot Roast was melt in your mouth great. Baby Carrots were sweet and buttery and of course included their famous Homemade Bread. My waitress was a sweet old lady that reminded me of my Grandmother. Only difference was my Grandmother would have offered me seconds after I finished my plate. No matter what you order make sure to get some of their bread... Or take a loaf home! read more

Their food is good but their hours are lacking. I usually turn to them for dinner & mostly they close too early.

The best!!!! Friendly staff and quick service. Always a nice hometown family place! Usually pretty busy especially on sundays but worth the wait! read more

My friend and I popped in for lunch and it was semi busy but well staffed. Our waitress was friendly and quick. The atmosphere is very much like an old diner and come hungry because the portions are large and cheap. I got the farmers feed which is scrambled eggs, hash browns, peppers, onions and cheese with 2 slices of super thick cut toast and it was $7.99. I was stuffed but it was so good. If I'm back in the area I'll definitely eat there again. read more

Nicolet is a staple to De Pere for all from broke college kids to hungover young adults to families to seniors. The prices are the BEST you will find anywhere for the quality and quantity. It's your typical diner atmosphere with super friendly staff, rotating specials, and a tasty selection of sweet treats. It doesn't have anything fancy but it doesn't need it. Farmers Feed is a must. During the week you can usually ask for any of the ingredients to be taken out but on the weekend it's their normal mix with mushrooms, onions, sausage, bacon and cheese. I hit this place up every time I visit Green Bay / De Pere. read more

Great service, good food, quick and cheap. What more do you need for a quick breakfast bite?

Wow! As a foodie you would think what can be special about a three egg breakfast, but my breakfast was fantastic! I ordered the "Big Mans Breakfast" which had three FARM FRESH EGGS, two meats which were a slice of ham and a polish sausage link sliced in half and grilled with a crust, american potatoes with cheese and onions, and rye toast that was made here at the bakery. Along with all this my table of four, split a whole order of biscuits and gravy which were the best I've ever had( I've had many). To go with maybe the best breakfast I've ever had, the service was fantastic. You don't finds gems like this too often. To boot the pricing was cheap! read more

Nicolet Restaurant - Amazing breakfast! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - De Pere, Wisconsin

Best breakfast place in the area. Farmer's Feed is a local favorite. The Sunnyvale Eggs Benedict is amazing!

We were visiting from out of town and stopped in before the Packers game on Sunday around 11:00. Our group of 5 was seated within minutes, and our waitress was sweet and attentive. The menu was pretty extensive--classic diner food options which is exactly what we were looking for. Portions were generous and the food was good! We'd be back if we lived in town! read more

The waitress was incredibly friendly and patient with our 6 year old. The food was delicious. I had the salmon Caesar salad and the fish was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. It was a cute little diner setting, with cool diner quirks such as unique coffee mugs and super bendy straws. Overall a great lunch stop! read more

Breakfast = Nicolet. I will honestly eat at Nicolet for breakfast 4/5 times when I take a 7/8 day trip back to DePere. Its that good. Double Farmers Feed is the best. I've tried to recreate it in my own kitchen but can't. There needs to be a wikileak on this recipe. The thick cut toast is delish with a little slab of butter and their homemade jam (comes with the beloved Farmer's Feed). Staff is always friendly, and even though things can get congested (on weekend mornings around 9:30 for example), they are always doing their best to seat you quickly and get your order back to the kitchen. And you will be pleasantly surprised with how fast that steaming plate of breakfast goodness makes its way to your table. And the prices are very reasonable. I wish they expanded to the SF Bay Area. read more

Visits: One When: Saturday 7/14/12 6:30am Company: Me Cuisine: Classic Wisconsin diner Vibe: Classic Wisconsin diner. Friendly, caring but not intrusive. I felt very welcomed, despite never having been here before and not being a "local." Volume: Comfortable. Groups of folks out for breakfast, chatting, laughing, having a good time. Guys eating alone at the counter. Decor: Historic photos on walls of De Pere train depot this replaced 8 years ago in a building which on the outside truly looks like a restored train depot. The west parking lot straddles two sets of train tracks, one of which you cross to get to the restaurant. Long counter seats about 20, lots of 2 person and 4 person booths, a big ("capacity 48" per the sign) room off to the side with tables. Big pastry case next to the cash register. Community newspaper shared at the counter. Service: Excellent. Middle aged moms and grandmas (at least at 0630 on a Saturday) who really care that you are getting a great meal. I found absolutely nothing "pressuring" about the waitress. Drinks: I had water. They have drip coffee. No espresso, but I think espresso would ruin the character of this place. Food: Based on previous Yelp reviews I ordered a single (they have single, double and triple portions) of the "Farmer's Feed" (scrambled eggs, green peppers, green onions, mushrooms, cheese, bacon, sausage, ham and hash browns), asking that they hold the meat. I was told they can hold the meat on M-F, but not on weekends. That being said, it was delicious, a wonderful medley, but even the single portion was huge (see my picture). I also ordered a side of American fries. The American fries were also delicious, thicker than most (1/4 to 1/2 inch thick), likely boiled or baked first then fried to perfection, just short of black, soooo good. Total: $7.15 Overall: Highly recommend. The hours are really good, as they open at 0530 Monday-Saturday. If you want to eat healthy here, get the oatmeal. That being said, even the American fries were not particularly greasy. Truly a slice of northeastern Wisconsin, absolutely nothing pretentious about this place. read more
