It had been a while since I'd been back, mostly because the road has a way of swallowing whole months at a time. This used to be the kind of breakfast joint you could count on: familiar faces, hot coffee, a little local flavor, no pretense. Now? It feels like something essential has gone missing. The neighborhood soul has been traded in for a scattered, food-service-by-the-box energy. Not disastrous, exactly--just tired. The wait staff seemed checked out, the food landed with a shrug, and the whole place had that faint air of a once-loved room no one is quite taking care of anymore. Did ownership change? Did the standards slip? Hard to say, but something definitely did. The price is still fair, which counts for something. The quality, though, is riding the edge of marginal. We'll give it another shot in a month or so, because everyone has an off day and I'd like to believe that's all this was. I hope so. read more

Great service and delicious food. Very lively place to spend with friends and family. Even with a wait, we do not mind because line goes swiftly. Cannot wait to return. read more

I really enjoyed having brunch at this location. The staff were very nice. We had a patient waitress who didn't mind coming back a few times because we weren't ready to order yet. That's what happens when you start your table chat before you look at the menu! I ordered the spicy wings and waffle with a side of eggs. The wings were close to being fried too much but they took them out right before they got dry. My friend has to send hers back to remake the chicken because her wings were dry. The waitress didn't have any problem with remaking her order. I really like the sauce that went with the chicken it was sweet and savory! The waffle I asked for crisp outside and fluffy inside and they made it perfectly. Me and my friend stayed talking for a while after we ate and no one came to try and rush us off the table. The staff still came by often to refill our coffee and water. We appreciated that because we had a lot to catch up on. I really enjoyed it here and will come again. read more

Wow! I'm so thankful that I gave Pelican Grill another chance after a bad experience three years ago. They are now under new ownership/management and made a 180 degree turnaround. We received a friendly welcome upon arrival, were attended quickly and our food was delicious. During the holidays, my mom was visiting from San Antonio. Before she left, I took her to P.G. for her first time. Because she is an excellent cook, she is very particular about her food. She thoroughly enjoyed her delicious breakfast and hot coffee at Pelican Grill. When mom is happy, I am happy! We now live in Seabrook and are thankful to have this family friendly, unpretentious and cozy little place conveniently located near our home. read more

Wow Pelican I am SHOCKED.. how things have fallen!! I moved away for a few and Just returned .. This is the worst service I have seen in years and y'all used to be on point, on your game .... Service is so slow.... I just popped in for a breakfast taco.... Employee standing up on the inside of the counter, eating, trying to serve people with food in their mouth ! A cup of coffee to go is $3.75 coffee, this is my $7 taco It's great to be home, sorry guys I won't be back !! read more

Had decided to try somewhere else besides are usually chains to support local businesses. Pros: - Was sat immediately. Cons: - Place didn't seem too busy. - Waited for 8 minutes, and no server or anyone ever came to our table. - Servers were at the bar chatting. Left after no one ever came and even greeted us, so we left without talking to anyone besides the hostess. read more

I was greeted with huge smiles and hellos from the very friendly staff as I entered the restaurant. Atmosphere is laid back. This place is only open for breakfast and lunch, but the menu has many options to satisfy any cravings. I had the Crab Cake Eggs Benedict. Everything was cooked perfectly. And the crab cake was full of flavor. I opted for the side of fruit as you can tell from the picture is fresh. The service I received was great. More smiles and she met my needs quickly. This place is definitely a must do for this area. read more

Great local find, we went for breakfast this morning and tried the chicken and waffles and the eagle nest. The chicken waffles were subpar but the eagle's nest was delicious. The service was fantastic. I think we had one waitress and three others coming by to help with refills and to check on us. read more

We were attending a wedding nearby and this was the closest breakfast place we found to our hotel. We are so glad we decided to stop by. Our waitress was so sweet, she gave us some great recommendations on what to order. I decided to order the veggie omelette and a biscuit. My friend ordered some pancakes. Everything is as soo good. The place was quiet and very clean. Will definitely stop by again when I'm on that side of town. read more

This place was amazing. The food was not greasy.

Just what i needed this morning. Food was perfectly seasoned and no long wait for anything. Small cozy breakfast spot! And the pancake was so good that i forgot to take a pic!

Went for breakfast on a Sunday morning as first timers here. They are so welcoming! So sweet to my daughter. They only have canned soda (not a big deal) but I prefer fountain. My husband had the salmon Benedict, he said it was very good. Not much salmon on it but still tasted really good. I got the sourdough sandwich, It was not toasted on the bread, just had melted butter on it. So I wasn't a huge fan, I got bacon on it, it wasn't a bad tasting sandwich but I did not like there was 4 slices of cheese (one on each piece of bread) so that's all you could really taste. The avocado and hashbrowns were bomb! They were so good. This place is such a cute little diner, we will go back but maybe will try something different read more

Some coworkers and I came here on our lunch break. The restaurant is very casual, kind of exactly what you would expect from a seaside diner (although Pelican Grill is not located near the water). Our server was friendly. She took our order (5 people) without writing down anything, so that caused some of us to have some anxiety. She ended up getting one of my coworker's sides wrong, but the problem was quickly fixed. My chicken fried steak was pretty good. The steak itself is kind of nondescript--basic but good. The mashed potatoes were, I think, the best thing on the plate. Very flavorful. The salad is a little weird to come with a chicken fried steak but I guess I'm not complaining about some greenery with the heavy steak and gravy. I would've liked a soda, but they only have soda from a can (I prefer fountain). Their menus were also really sticky. I'm not sure if I'll be back here. I live across the water so I'm more of a Skipper's person. Pelican is not bad, but not great enough for me to drive to this side of the water. read more

Awesome food!awesome service , crispy hashbrown , the egg benedict with avacado was awesome as well, perfectly poached eggs with light hollandaise. We were in the area and wanted a quick brunch wanting a waterview but quickly decided to go to the Pelican due to reviews and parking situation elsewhere, such a welcome change in comparison to the innerloop dining experience. Its has small time family restaurant feel, packed to the brim and the quality , price and service says it all. their french toast looked good as well , seemed to have a wide array of selection from classics to southern dishes . will come back again if in the area for some chicken fried chicken and french toast. read more

My boyfriend and I ordered from DoorDash, so I'm unable to comment on the restaurant. I got the country fried steak, and it was to die for. The sausage gravy is top tier. He got the blueberry crunch pancakes, and they were perfect in every way. We have to go inside for brunch one day. Perfect meals and we basically licked the plates clean. read more

The Driller is certainly plentiful, with two strips of bacon, two sausage patties, three eggs any style, toast and a side of your choice (Hash Browns, Home Fried, Grits, Salad, Sliced Tomato, Fruits or Sliced Avocado). I went with hash browns. Although the pancakes were very pretty to look at, and had a lot of flavor, I just found them to be too thick and doughy. Overall, nothing about the meal was great, it was a typical greasy spoon breakfast; on the other hand, nothing about the meal was bad either. That said, I don't eat Egg Benedict which so many rave about at this place, so if you do, it certainly might be worth a try. read more

Nice little local spot next to the bay.. well across the street. The place was clean and spacious. Staff is really nice and friendly. Service and food were excellent. I came in for breakfast and I couldn't have asked for more. I got the southern breakfast plate and it was perfect portions for me. They open at 7 for breakfast and they also have a lunch menu. I'm looking forward to going back try that. So if you're on Nasa Road 1 in the Seabrook area stop by for a bite to eat read more

Best breakfast place ever! Being gluten free I asked for my ham Eggs Benedict to be served on spinach. It was so delicious. Other people in my party raved about the crab cake Benedict. I added honey to the creamy grits and I was in gluten free heaven. Great service too! read more

If your claim to fame is "good food and friendly service" the staff should extend the friendly service part to their interactions on the phone. We called the morning of November 21 at 6:55. I understand they don't open until 7 but we figured if they answered they could take our order. Instead, when we asked to place an order we were met with a woman who said "we aren't open yet, you are going to need to give us 10-15 minutes". That is not friendly service. It's bizarre they would answer the phone if they and then say they won't take an order until 5-10 minutes after they open. When we did call at 7:10AM she took the order, but she still had an annoyed tone. Overall, we felt like unvalued customers. Unfortunately the less than stellar experience didn't stop here. The Avocado Eggs Benedict was not good. The egg was way over done, not runny at all and for some reason whoever prepared this thought that brown avocados was a good touch. The corned beef hash and the French toast just plain tasted bad. The tacos and the hash browns were ok. This was a really poor experience and we won't be back and I recommend you find somewhere else for your breakfast needs. McDonald's would've been a better bet than the Pelican Grill. Additionally, I reached out to the business via email and never received a response back. Clearly this business does not care about their customers whatsoever. read more

I've only ordered takeout before from here since it's so close to my apartment. Food has always been delicious. I decided to eat in and was very disappointed and unimpressed by the service. There were two servers there, a man and women. We mainly had the man and he was just very rude in a way. For example my mom asked what was the difference in size for their large and small portion and he said "one is large and one is small" like no shit. And he kept throwing stuff on our table rather than placing it down nicely. He also forgot some stuff we asked for, and actually gave my plate of food to the wrong table lol. The waitress on the other hand was very lovely. read more

Service is always good here, kinda of hard to mess up breakfast. Haven't ventured here for lunch yet.

Great food & Great price!! I've been here several times and the food is like your classic diner. My favorite part is being able to bring your own champagne. Ok not really... I actually always order the Eggs Benedict with crab cakes. read more

This was our favorite stop in the Kemah area. My kids begged us to take them here every morning for breakfast on our mini vacay.

We've been here a few times for breakfast and it's has been consistently good. French toast is amazing! Get here early as it gets busy, but the service is great and they move tables quickly. I believe it is veteran owned as well and I am happy to spend my money here. read more

The Pelican Breakfast & Lunch is cute, cozy, and a small restaurant that has been around for years. This restaurant is open seven days a week from 7:00am-2:00pm. The customer service was provided by one of the owners Christine. She was very polite. She provided me with the history of the restaurant and the meaning behind entree names listed on the menu. I ordered an entree named after her aunt, "Aunt Bebop's Favorite"! It's Three pieces of French toast served with two scrambled eggs, and bacon. All dishes are made when ordered so, it was fresh, hot and delicious! I definitely will return to this place again when I'm in Houston! read more

This place is a wonderful little find in Seabrook. Came here the morning after thanksgiving and had the best breakfast with the friendliest service. This is a super laid back little spot with great food , good coffee and fresh OJ. I was torn between the French toast and corned beef hash so I asked our server and she said he corned beef hash was "so good", so that's what I ordered. She was so right ! It was crispy and just full of flavor which went perfectly with the poached eggs and sour dough toast. We also had the pancakes and they were huge and fluffy with a little powdered sugar dusting .... this breakfast was filling and delicious ! Prices are totally fair too. The cafe is open for breakfast and lunch and isn't anything too fancy, but they have amazing food and service so I will be back for sure !! read more

The food was very good, and the service was excellent. They had many choices on the menu. We will be back.

It's a small eatery in a strip center. We went there for breakfast very limited seating. We were lucky to get there at a time they had a table large enough for our party of five. All of their breakfast dishes were amazing. Everybody enjoyed their food, don't be in a hurry when you go there the food takes a bit to come out but it is absolutely worth the wait!! read more

The positives. Very prompt, attentive and friendly service. Reasonably priced. A good selection to choose from. Cute salt n pepper shakers. (Keep em handy, you'll need them). Areas that need work. The coffee was weak. It was frequently "refreshed", but new pots didn't really improve the flavor. My wife ordered eggs Benedict with salmon. The egg was undercooked,with white as well as yolk running. And served with a side of "home fries". Essentially, boiled potatoes cut into small cubes and warmed in a skillet. Neither dish was served warm. Let alone hot. I ordered Mexican breakfast tacos. Onions, peppers grilled into eggs and served in soft tacos. Very tasty (even with a store bought salsa) and served hot. The hash browns were crisped, but very cold. And flavorless. Those cute salt and pepper shakers came in handy. Pelican Grill seems to be a local favorite. It could use a little sprucing up. We were treated warmly and quickly. Step up the grill to match the service and you'll have a winner. read more
