Went to my favorite spot in ox and was so excited. Emily was my server and she was so busy and did an amazing job taking care of those at the bar. I had my favorite item, a custom wrap with egg whites, bacon and avocado with original home fries and just as good as I remember! Patterson's is always the place to be and everyone is well taken care of! read more

Finally made it here after hearing about it for a while. It's solid, but nothing special -- classic diner-style breakfast, eggs any way you want them. Service is friendly and efficient, and the place is packed, so clearly it has a following. Just don't come in expecting anything beyond a reliable, average breakfast. read more

Patterson's Cafe - Your average looking avocado toast with eggs - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oxford, Ohio

Ive lived near this place since before it opened and today my wife and myself checked it out. I had the whole kitchen sink omelette and it was good, my wife had the California turkey club and she could only eat half. She liked it It's a standard cafe that serves breakfast, I'm not going to say anything super special about it but it was a nice place to eat. But we would go back to give it another try. read more

The $OJ is worth it to watch the juicer at the bar that instantly squeezes fresh clementines. The fresh made breakfasts divine! I had the Florentine Eggs Benedict with hashbrowns. My eggs were perfectly poached, just enough Holly sauce and I devoured every bite! Don't turn down a bar seat for watching all the drink action with seasoned veteran servers. Place is warm and homey, like you are in a well loved Grandparent's kitchen. read more

While in town for an event at Miami University, my group had breakfast here since it was so close to the hotel. We showed up when they opened (online says 8 am) and found people already seated and having drinks inside, so I guess they might open earlier? Regardless, we were seated quickly and instantly brought waters and offered coffee. Soon after we ordered, and it didn't take long for our meals to come out. Someone in my party got the Eggs Benedict, which he liked but found the potatoes on the side uncooked and under seasoned. Another from my group got the bagel and lox, which she was surprised by how tasty it was. I personally got "the works" omelette with bacon and Swiss as my meat and cheese of choice. The bacon was super tasty, but the omelette could've definitely used more cheese. It was also constructed weird, almost like all the "fillings" were just thrown on top and not truly incorporated in with the omelette. While it made it a bit messier to eat, it was still good. Overall we had a nice meal and would come back next time we're in the area. read more

Fast service to seating, first round of coffee was fast. After that service was sluggish. 2nd round of coffee was lukewarm and returned. Splenda packets added to table as it was "out", OJ arrived and was very tasty-excellent in my opinion. Fast bustling restaurant with a good atmosphere. Super busy on our Sunday morning. My Benedict Arnold with corned beef needs some rethinking. Thinly sliced corned beef seemed like a desire to cut costs over flavor. The hash potatoes were sub par, not hot, not really flavorful- though I did not return the dish. The French Toast Fruity Tooty was a hit. The biscuits & gravy 1/2 order was considered bland. Guest thought the sausage was unremarkable. They have too many items on the menu in my opinion and therefore to many to make very well. I would come back for the pancakes as they appeared huge but I needed some protein as I fly out today. Plus the fresh OJ was fresh and delicious. read more

As a party of five we were greeted with a very friendly and accommodating hostess. She quickly made seating for our group in an almost full dining room. Our waitress Emily was on our table in very short order and was very welcoming. Water was placed in front of us and coffee was fast and warm. Our food came out in a very comfortable time and was delicious. A big hurrah to the kitchen crew as everything was delicious. A great atmosphere to eat and relax read more

Wow where do I start? When we got there we didn't have to wait and were seated in the front area and away from the door. However as more people came in and there was a wait for seating people would hold open and the inside set of doors and the cold air would fill the room. At this point we were always cold from the winter temps blasting in. Then comes our server who seemed to be a dud with no personality who also seamed to ghost us at times. She did finally take our order after bringing our drinks except for my wife's diet. She blamed the bar and said, those came from the bar. My wife asked again and then I asked again then it finally showed up. Next comes refills on the diet and coffee which we had to ask for. Our order came out and was hot but not quite right since some of the orders were written down incorrectly. That all was straightened out fairly quick. I got the meat lovers omelette as did my son and I thought it was really boring and almost flavorless. Probably because it seemed very dry. Then comes the shocking discovery of the tip to the whipped cream dispenser buried in the whipped cream on top of my daughter in laws pancakes. (Photo attached) My son asked the manager to come over and she did. She was very apologetic and asked if we wanted it remade or if my DIL wanted something else. She said no and I asked that it be taken off of our bill and the manager agreed and said that she was going to do that anyway. My DIL then decided that she wanted something to go since the rest of us were nearly finished eating. She ordered a sandwich. Now one would think they would comp that meal to go since they were the reason she didn't get to eat with the rest of the family but no it was on our bill. I didn't say anything about it except to my wife and we left. I had been to this restaurant before and so have my son and his wife who stop by more than us because they live close. Typically it is good but we always feel like a they are rushing us out to turn over the tables. Today is more than likely my last visit. read more

Patterson's Cafe - Whip cream dispenser tip - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oxford, Ohio

This is THE destination for a fantastic brunch. It's clean, bright, comfortable, with cheerful and very well-trained staff, and the food is out of this world. Such a great selection of Benedicts, brunch plates including Monte Cristo sandwich and chicken & waffles, all kinds of breakfast meat options, full bar, plus burgers and sammies too if you're more inclined to the lunch mode. They know how to make a great over easy egg, the butter provided is soft, and their house blend coffee is rich and delicious without a trace of bitter. It gets busy, obviously, so be prepared for a potential wait which will have to be out of doors or in your car. Not to worry, they'll find you. I have found the wait times to be accurate. So glad I had a chance to get back here today. I won't wait so long for next time when I plan to finally get the chicken & waffle! Patterson's- love it. Come early, come often. read more

Patterson's Cafe - Irish Breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oxford, Ohio

I stopped in at Patterson's Cafe yesterday just a little after noon. There was a line at the door of people that were waiting for a table. This was a Saturday. I had read the reviews before I stopped to eat and I had read that they had problems with service and also the hostess not telling you what was going on. I saw none of this yesterday. When the hostess came to my name she recognized that it was me she walked over to me and said I have this table ready or you can sit at the bar. This table was a two top and I was by myself. I chose to sit at the bar. This was my first time in Patterson's Cafe and I was there because I had a $25 gift certificate I had been given. I believe the bartender's name was Lily and she is the one who took my order. To start I ordered the Irish Coffee for a starter, it had Jameson Irish whiskey, kahlua, coffee, and whipped cream. This was an excellent way to start my meal. I ordered the Patterson's Irish Burger. Instead of a bun there was the boxty. The Irish Boxty is a potato pancake. Next time I would order a hamburger with a bun instead I wasn't a big fan of the potato pancake but the burger was delicious. Overall I had a very good meal and I had excellent service. I will stop here again the next time that I am in Oxford. read more

My pancake and sausage were only cooked on one side and the potatoes were cold and crunchy. It was an $18 breakfast that I barely ate. They were busy, but if this is what they have to do to get food out fast, it's not worth it. We were seated at the bar and the server watched us the whole time. She didn't say anything, didn't offer to replace the food, she didn't even ask us how our meal was , she simply brought us the check because she knew I wasn't eating it. read more

Came here after our drive from Chicago and before our game at McKie Field. Comfortable, inviting spot. Great food selection. I got the New Yorker (eggs Benedict with salmon). It was good. Not mind blowing and I like my hash browns crispy and these were not. But it was much better than any fast food place we would've gone to. read more

A really nice cafe. Small is better sometimes. Friendly service. Definitely will visit again. read more

I never shut up about this place. Being an Oxford local I visit often! I will say they have always been busy, but WORTH the wait. We sat up at the bar and loved watching the freshly squeezed orange juice machine. Both the bartenders were very attentive and managed customers and server tickets efficiently. The menu has many options for both lunch and dinner. When you go you MUST try the orange juice, although their bloody mary's are amazing as well read more

Great service and great food. Awesome atmosphere. I had the breakfast quesadilla and it was great!!! Salsa was good, the guac was bland

Great eggs Benedict but home fries were not hot and a little stale. They have nice menu with varied choices. They make a good cup of coffee and we love their fresh squeezed orange juice. Server was very pleasant read more

The food here... so mediocre. It's just not that great and god it leaves you feeling like crap too. The best thing here is the eggs benedict, it's pretty solid. The breakfast bowl which they're supposedly known for is pretty gross, somehow has no flavor. Steinkeller is a better option for brunch. The staff is clearly stressed with the amount of people so the service is not the best. Honestly if there were more brunch options in Oxford this place wouldn't be overrun every weekend. read more

There are not many options here in Oxford and Patterson's cafe knows it. They offer mediocre food, cheat you on serving size, awful service with the price tag of a 5 star review restaurant. Ordered 3 eggs and bacon, and the egg portion looked like one egg made flat so it will look like more food. The bacon was the cheapest bacon ever!!!! For 3 pieces of bacon they charged $6 STOP IT. When I asked the server about the eggs she rolled her eyes. What a joke!! Don't ever come here!!! Drive the extra 20 min to get something decent. Lesson learned! Patterson's cafe you are not worth the convenience. I will be your new self proclaimed marketing client to ensure you start treating your costumers the right way! If Yelp had half or stars I will give you half of one star!!! Seriously DO NOT COME HERE!! read more

Cute diner that has all your classic breakfast dishes. Not a lot of vegan options but they did give me toast and avocado.... which was very $ IMHO. Kids were happy and it's the perfect spot to take your college kids for a weekend breakfast when visiting Miami read more

Best breakfast and Service. The veggie quesadilla was great. My son had the chicken waffle sandwich and loved it. Glad I found them on Yelp on our visit to seeing Miami U. read more

Disappointing restaurant. Taste, presentation, and value for price all fell short here. Obvious this restaurant doesn't have much competition and can provide a lackluster experience. Nice service, but will not be returning for the food. read more

Best breakfast place in Oxford. Big portions and the menu has many options including lunch items.

Go to breakfast/brunch spot in Oxford. Omelettes are always delicious, as is the breakfast bowl, bagel with lox, and pretty much everything we have tried. The only downside is the wait time, but some things are worth the wait--and Patterson's definitely fits that bill. read more

Do not recommend if attending with a service animal. Was denied entrance when shown official documents for ESA... for a army veteran.

Not how I remember the place. My fruit was a joke.i had oatmeal. The brownsugar was too hard to get my spoon into. My son only ate half of his breakfast which is unusual for him. read more

Nice spot in Oxford that is a staple. Food and service has always been good, and during the school year this place can get busy. My co workers and I come here a lot, and I've taken my trainees here for a congratulatory meal. Breakfast items are usually my go to, and my friends like their burgers, bisque/soups and salads too. I've really enjoyed their breakfast bowl, and potato cakes. They also have fresh squeezed for a nice beverage. read more

Good spot for breakfast. Usually a wait on weekends, but there are no other options in OxVegas. Food is good, coffee is good, service is good. A little on the pricey side, but everything is now. I recommend. read more

An absolute favorite brunch spot. Great for parents or to go with your friends!! the quesadillas are amazing and depending on the size of your party and how many people there are they're either super quick or take forever (we went with a large group once and saw many people who came after us get served before us). Overall I'd recommend it but get there early!! read more

Thanks to Yelp for pointing our group to this nice cafe near the Univ Miami campus. Although it specializes in breakfast/brunch, we found plenty to choose from. We pulled up to the convenient parking of this corner located shop. The east side of the restaurant has outdoor seating with umbrella tables. Inside, there was plenty of seating along the front windows as well as along the east wall near the bar area. It was nice, so we let them know how many were in our party at the check in desk and we were given a table outside which suited us fine! I ordered a mixed fruit smoothie with a yogurt base (they had other flavors and you could substitute banana for the yogurt which my friend did.) Both got excellent reviews for flavor! We ate around noon, so some of our group decided to go with brunch items like "the Works" omelet or the Benny Burger which is basically eggs benedict, with bacon, and a burger cooked to order. That got rave reviews. The portions here are really generous. My wife ordered a BBQ burger (she got a to go box) and I ordered the crab cake sandwich which was quite different from what I've had elsewhere. The bun was soft and tasty. It was served with leaf lettuce and a tomato slice and had tartar sauce on the side. I can't remember ever having crab cakes on a sandwich before, so tomato and lettuce were a new experience for me while eating this meal. It was good, maybe not my favorite combo, but I'll give them credit for trying something different. Prices weren't cheap, but the food we ordered wasn't something you can just mindlessly crank out, so I think the prices were fair for the quality we received. Everyone agreed that it was a really good choice for a place to dine. Service was good and paid attention without being intrusive. Review #3795 read more

First visit to Patterson's - we will be back. I had the Big Breakfast burrito and half order of Biscuits & Sausage gravy. The biscuits were amazing- fluffy center baked to perfection. I could've smothered the Sausage gravy over anything. It was very good. Daughter #1 got the HUGE Peanut butter & chocolate chip stuffed pancakes. A+. The bride had the Power Quesadilla. Also an A+. read more

this place is a go to. perhaps because it is the one of few decent places to eat in the oxford area haha! have gotten takeout and eaten in several times, all been good experiences. my favorite thing to get is the veggie omelette. staff is very friendly. I really appreciate how they offer gluten free bread. only knocking off one star for prices being high and for my order being wrong once on a takeout. I ordered a turkey sandwich but there was no turkey, only bacon haha. I am looking forward to trying more menu items! read more

Ordered the breakfast bowl and I just have to say it was awful. The hash browns were cold and under cooked. The eggs were pulverized I couldn't tell if they were scrabbled or ran thru a blender. The gravy doesn't even classify as grave, tasted more like corn starch than anything. The biscuit was cooked in a muffin tin and so dense it was more like a hard dumpling. The bacon tasted like bacon bits out of a bag and overall salt content was enough to raise anyones blood pressure. But the coffee was good. When our server asked if everything tasted ok, I replied no and he literally ran away. read more

Surprise!!! Traveling home from Cincinnati and took the path less followed. Ended up here and was very happy we did. Very active, clean and charming place. Great service, and the food was fantastic. Had an omelette of my own design. Turned out perfect. The hollandaise sauce was among the best I've ever had. Certainly worth the route we took today. read more

The best brunch in Oxford! Delicious blueberry pancakes, mimosas, eggs Benedict. The wait is worth it!

A popular brunch spot, and for good reason--the food and homemade coffee are always great. I would recommend coming here early, as the restaurant tends to be packed after 9:00 am. Service is good despite the crowds, and the atmosphere is very inviting. A nice little casual café! read more

What a great find! Stopped in for brunch with my daughter. They were fairly busy but we got seated right away. She ordered an omelette and ate the entire thing so it must have been amazing! (Being 10 and all) I ordered the breakfast quesadilla and it was really good. I couldn't finish it all. Guacamole was extra but it was really good and a good touch!

We love Patterson Cafe. It's one of our favorite restaurants in Oxford. Their pancakes are always huge and delicious, and I had their crab cake special one day which were to die for! The serving sizes are big enough to take some home for later. I love how they always ask if you want coffee to go before you leave. The service has always been a delight, and quick. There's enough windows for great lighting and to watch the cars go by which is great for my little ones. I'm always a fan of restaurants that have a kids menu with crayons to keep them busy. read more
