Delish! Worth veering off I-44 for breakfast/lunch. Food was hot and delicious. Extremely kind staff. Clean and unique little place. Kids LOVED it and Wifey loved it even more. Pancakes are big and fluffy. Bacon is not soggy but not burned crisp. My daughter ordered an iced coffee and it was worth it. Impressive presentation and 'extremely yummy' according to her. Don't come during slammed business times if you're starving. There can be quite a wait. BUT WORTH IT YALL!! read more

First the good; neat place, nice waitstaff, and a good location and now the disappointing parts. I stopped for breakfast, and it wasn't good. The hashbrowns were from a frozen package and too well done and dry. The sausage was good but overcooked. The eggs were fine. The biscuits and gravy were both "store bought" and not good store bought. They were the real miss. I expected something different from the previous reviews and what I got was basically what I could have had at IHOP and not prepared as well. Again, nice people and there was a crowd so maybe I just came on a bad day, or they do better at lunch but I wouldn't go back. read more

This is an adorable diner with a classic diner atmosphere. They even have old school brown coffee mugs lol. I drive by this place often, but I'm not a morning person and they're usually closed by the time I'm thinking about food. Today I stopped in for some togo breakfast and was greeted by the lovely Jennifer who was super helpful and so so nice. I ordered the all meat skillet with the biscuit on the side. It took less than 5 minutes to get my food and it was delicious. Just the food I was hoping for this morning; the eggs were cooked perfectly and the hash browns were crispy. I hope to be able to try their lunch soon. read more

Daughter wanted a good old fashioned traditional breakfast so where else do you go but the place that was voted the best in four states. I opted for pancakes which were HUGE. Two was more then enough. The pancakes came with heated syrup and lots of butter. I also chose a side of bacon which came with 4 slices. Husband and daughter had cooked to order eggs, hash browns, toast and bacon. All of us enjoyed our breakfast and it was just what we were looking for. Now if I could get it without all those calories.... Parking was easy with adjacent lot and service was good. read more

Stopped in for breakfast with my daughter and wife while in town watching some basketball. Cool looking location - outside is not much, but the inside and the tables may it look like an old time diner. Waitress was very friendly and our food came very quickly after we ordered it - still steaming hot. I had the bacon, eggs, hash browns and toast. I ordered extra crispy hash browns -- they were perfectly cooked for my tastes. My daughter got the same thing and thought it was very good. My wife got the pancakes with bacon. Pancakes were good and fluffy. Drinks are large - I had orange juice and my daughter had chocolate milk. All and all a good diner for a traditional American breakfast. read more

My husband picked this out because of the stellar Yelp reviews. We were pretty excited and it seemed busy enough which is a good sign. I checked in on Yelp when we were seated and was surprised to discover a coupon pop up for a free coffee with purchase. When I asked out server about it she was pretty snippy and said they don't honor that stuff and they're not on Yelp. Ok, that's fine but you don't have to be rude...I'm only inquiring. I've never had a business turn down a discount that's popped up on this app especially something as minute as a free coffee (I only drank one cup). Anyways, we ordered the basic eggs, bacon, hash browns, etc. It came out fast which is great but this was one of the blandest meals I've ever had. They literally threw frozen hash browns on the griddle and cracked an egg. I almost never have to add salt as I season my food as I cook and I had to add so much salt and pepper for any sort of flavor whatsoever. It was so disappointing. I don't know what the five star reviews are about as this was basic truck stop food. read more

I have to honestly say... I was not expecting this. I read some of the reviews and thought I'd like this place enough, but not enough to care... man was I wrong. We stopped in here for brunch while visiting family in Joplin based on the reviews I read on Yelp. When we pulled into the parking lot we really didn't think much of it... I mean, it's obviously a greasy spoon type of place, but the outside exuded the very 70's truck-stop diner you would expect to see in the middle of nowhere on Route 66. Whoever Norma is, she certainly is not a decorator. The outside blended it's way into the very dated interior. But I'll be honest, this review has nothing to do with the elderly yet plushy booth we sat in. The food here. O-M-G. If you are coming here expecting it to be some sort of light-fare fine dining experience you are in the wrong city. This is heavy, greasy, cooked with lard kind of food ladies and gentlemen. The butter on the toast has the flavor of grease and the consistency of oil, the eggs drip fat, and the skillet of food that I ordered was without a doubt the heaviest thing I have ever eaten in my entire life.. and I loved every freakin second of it. I got the Gyro Skillet (with Tzatziki on the side), the sister got the veggie skillet, the fiance got french toast with strawberries slathered all over them. What came out of the kitchen looked nothing like the pics in the menu... they were HUGE. The skillet was a mound of meat and veggies swimming in sizzling grease with two eggs haphazardly thrown on top and two piece of toast on the side. It was a real struggle to get it all down due to quantity, but I knew it wouldn't keep in the fridge (it would have congealed into one solid mass). When we finished up we totaled out, sealed our unbelievably good breakfasts for under $9 a person including drinks, and waddled our much heavier selves to the car. Norma's is a MUST if you are in Joplin and you don't care about fitting into your outfit the next day. The food is amazing, the service was great, and the price is fair! read more

Looking for a new and fun place to meet up for this latest trip, we stumbled across The Bruncheonette in Yelp. Sooooo thankful we did. It's located at the northern edge of downtown Joplin on main street. It's a small quaint place with both on and off-street parking. We could tell immediately that we'd made a popular choice based upon the large number of cars and folks waiting to get a seat. The hostess welcomed us just outside the front door and us we'd be seated shortly. She was great and very nice to chat with. We had to wait outside a short bit before we were escorted inside. The space and seating is limited for sure. There are tables as well as some bar-style seating along the edges of the restaurant. The environment was busy, fun and lively. Our granddaughter loved all the action. The person who escorted us in then actually took the extra time to explain their menu and options, which are posted on boards above the checkout counter. The menu is limited and made up of a combo of traditional lunch/brunch items. But they are all done with a unique and delicious flair. Sort of a twist on the traditional bunch options. All of us enjoyed our meals. We had breakfast street tacos, a salmon cake eggs Benedict special, French toast, the fruit plate and a pancake. All of the portions were good sized, ingredients fresh and tasted great. They even went the extra step to bring our granddaughter some fried cheese to munch on. Very kind. I also got a laugh out of the fun pictures in the bathroom as well. Hilarious. The restaurants location allowed us to enjoy a stroll around the downtown area afterward brunch.

My wife had the avocado toast. She said it was really good. Service was great and it's a neat atmosphere. It was a little loud because it's so busy. So if you want quiet, this isn't your place. My only complaint other than the over cooked eggs is the price. First, the menu prices are not updated. My meal said it was $19.00. In reality, it was $22.00. So it's pricy. Not really worth it for an every week place to eat in my opinion. I will probably only eat here on special occasions in the future. We spent just under $50.00 without tip. We had water to drink and I had a coffee. There are plenty of other places in Joplin with food priced more reasonably and that is just as good. It's definitely worth trying, just know it's pricy.

Our waitress, Aimee, provided warm, friendly service and was especially kind to our senior mom, which we truly appreciated. We'll definitely be back on our next visit!

I had the chocolate chip pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, and what I believe are home fries. The pancakes were huge, which I was very happy about. The lighting is amazing, and all the paintings on the wall match the atmosphere perfectly. I will definitely be coming here more often.

I live in town and eat here weekly. I can't say enough good things about this place. Is it five…read morestar food...no. Is it really good, yes! I haven't eaten anything here I don't like. Their breakfast is as good as it gets when it comes to cafe food. Their meatloaf is some of the best I've had to be honest. I love their homemade hot rolls they serve with the meatloaf. The hamburger steak is one of my favorites. Their green beans are ok. Probably their weakest side. Their country potatoes are among my favorites. The service is always good. The ladies there work hard and know their customers. It's loud when full of customers, but hey..at least they are busy. It's always clean and they are friendly. Obviously I love this place. If you want great cafe food, then just eat here. Oh, give their baked goods a try. You'll thank me later. :-)

You had a big variety of choices. If I would do it over again I outrace pancake or French toast. Don't get me wrong the biscuits and gravy were very good, I just needed something sweet after the awesome home style breakfast. Would definitely come back.
