This place is AMAZING... the food is prepared on the spot, the waitresses are awesome, so polite and attentive.. my husband and I are very picky when it comes to places we eat, this place was recommended to us by a friend 2-3 years ago.. this is our breakfast place and we've tried every restaurant in the AV...my husband LOVES their Country Fried Steak!!!! I recommend this place to anyone who loves their breakfast... try it... trust me you WILL NOT be disappointed!!! read more

I've only been here once, but I will for sure be a repeat customer. I usually make it an attempt to try new dining establishments and not just venture into a franchise owned food hole. Typically, the lesser known places have better fare and Phebies is no exception to that. Clearly whoever is running the show in the kitchen, should be given an award because they know what they're doing. My breakfast was awesome. I like that I can get home fries instead of run of the mill hash browns. Not many places have that as an option. My omelette came out exactly as I ordered it and the biscuits and gravy? Some of, if not, the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had (sorry Grandma lol). read more

I'm not from Lancaster, and this place might be just what the locals expect and put up with, but it was a huge disappointment. The place was clean well lit, with friendly service and reasonable prices if he food had any quality , which is the reason ro 1 star. I recommend no one should eat here The chicken friend steak was thin rubbery and reminded me of a seriously freezer burned piece of meat. Gravy was bland and the hash browns were soggy, and over medium eggs were over easy. A professional chef with formal classroom training should know better. French toast was also a train wreck and the three friends I went with, are still suffering with stomach problems. The consensus was avoid among all 4 of us. read more

Great home style cooking in what otherwise a culinary dessert. I go there for breakfast. The home fries with peppers and onions are delicious. read more

I've been to Phebie's once! Once to be honest, and it left a lasting impression on me. For dinner, I had the Phebie's meatloaf and it was fantastic! I had a brief chat with the owner which surprisingly is of Honduran decent and graduated from Le Cordon Bleu. To be a straight shooter...a Hispanic woman that makes great American derived food!! Highly recommended will go back again :) read more

The lady serving was super rude !!!! Food was good but horrible service. Never coming here again

Wasn't too busy, great service, waitress was very helpful always made sure the drinks were full. The portions are plentiful and price are affordable. The corn beef hash was Okay but the the pancakes were delicious and fluffy....... So yelpers if you're on avenue K in Lancaster check it out read more

Upon a recommendation from a friend we tried this place out. It had a good old school or truck stop diner feel. The food was great but the coffee was s bit watered down. The pancakes taste like my grandma's pancakes made from scratch. I recommend this place. read more

We moved here almost 2 years ago and I have passed this place many times not thinking much until we heard how good it was and decided to stop in. The outside does not do it justice. Hours are only 6am to 2pm but the food is breakfast lunch and dinner served all day. The breakfast is amazing. We've only been twice but I know we have found a new regular spot. The pancakes are seriously amazing, the french toast also. The country potatoes are to die for. So fresh. The big country omelette is so good. The portions are big. The service is great. They make you feel like family. They are warm and welcoming even when its busy. The biscuits and gravy...oh man. My kids are very picky but clean their plates when we eat here which I've never seen them do. Please don't pass this place up! Give them a try and see for yourself. read more

I've been to Phebie's at least 10 times, and, I have yet to have a bad experience. I must admit, I have only been for breakfast, and only ordered breakfast, so I cannot provide a fair assessment of any menu items other than breakfast. Between the family, we've ordered just about everything on the breakfast menu and have not had to return any item to the kitchen - the restaurant and staff have met expectations. At times, when family come to visit, we've shown up with 10 people and the staff was extremely accommodating. My opinion is Phebie's is a breakfast treasure - we typically arrive to eat early in the morning (on weekends) to avoid the crowd and potential wait (there are about 15 tables with some extra seating at the bar - fills quick). read more

Used to be regulars here but the service has gotten bad and the prices seem to increase each time. Coffee should be free not $2+ our last visit the breakfast all tasted like it was cooked on a dirty grill. When we told our server she said, I told them the food tastes bad and to clean the grill. Didn't apologize to us or offer a discount for our next visit,, just walked away. An apology or a discount would have been nice and we'd return as customers, but our business didn't seem to matter to them so unfortunately we'll be taking our business and hard earned money elsewhere. Its a real shame because we used to enjoy going there read more

Service was bad. Food was okay. Took very long tome to get our breakfast. Waitress was indifferent and seemed bothered by customers. Will never go back. read more

I have visited about a dozen times and only once had issues with food quality. They took care of it. The potions are good, service is friendly. Order ahead if you are in a hurry. I enjoy this cafe. Patty melts, tuna melts and eggs benedict are my favorites. read more

Great place for breakfast. Fast and friendly service. Good varity of food on the menu.

Great food but bad service! Mom was visiting and wanted some good breakfast. Took her to Phebie's hoping this time the older heavy set lady would be a bit nicer. I asked for a second set of utensils and she gave me a dirty look and slammed the utensils on the table. Clearly my parents noticed. When we left they said "the foods good but that lady needs to retire" Gave her a good tip and that's my last visit there. Sucks read more

I've been to phebie's cafe multiple times now and have had nothing but good experiences, so I don't understand why there's some bad reviews on here about this place... My food and my service has been great even when the place was busy. I'd say the best thing I've ordered off of the dinner menu is the fettucini alfredo! Definitely one of my new favorite restaurants in the AV read more

I have food sensitivities and they were very accommodating with my gluten and dairy intolerances. I had the Denver omelet minus the dairy and the potatoes. All was def. homemade and delicious. Kept my coffee full at all times! read more

Food was pretty good the only thing is that my home fries had a slight rancid taste and there were "floaties" in the water... the service was fine and all the other food was good... But due to these things I probably won't be eating here again. read more

My family and I love coming here for a good breakfast. Service is wonderful and we always leave happy. Haven't been disappointed once with any dish we order. read more

This is a great place with a number of interesting menu items that shows it's not just another bland run of the mill AV breakfast/lunch place. I had the Mexican Skillet. It was really good. I like going to restaurants. Most have tasteless salsa, even Mexican places. This salsa was spicy with a delicious amount of cilantro. The food had real flavors. I immediately texted my wife that I found our new breakfast place. The other reviewers must really be out lunch. This place is a jewel. read more

My mom and I LOVE this place. It has a relaxed atmosphere and delicious home cookin! Also, Kasey is the best waitress!!

Was a little worried about the reviews, but after my experience I can safely say most of these negative reviews had no idea what they're talking about. First time I went there I had the smoked ham and eggs, and I was hooked the moment I took the first bite. To say the service and food quality is fantastic would be an understatement. I honestly didn't expect this humble eatery to outperform many of its competitors but it just goes to show that looks can definitely be deceiving. I definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a hearty breakfast with great customer service. read more

I only went one time, but I loved it! I'm planning to go again this weekend. Excellent food and service! What more could you ask for?

I come here with the fam to enjoy good conversation, friendly service, and tasty heaping portions. Try their Eggs Benedict; you won't be disappointed. read more

Very generous portions. Love the fact that you can have pancakes instead of toast with your meal. KC is a fun waitress, and remembers what you like to eat. I'm gluten free and not had any problems with what I've had. Hubby and I share a breakfast, hence the pancakes vs toast and order 2 extra eggs. There's never been an extra plate charge. read more

From out of town. Was worried about reviews. Was good breakfast joint. My Californian omelette was really good. Home fries could use a bit more seasoning but service was good. Better than average food and a nice break from fast food. read more

I have been a customer of Karen's kitchen and returned under the new owners and it has been a drastic change IN THE FOOD.. It's delicious and you can taste the freshness. I have had a good experience with the servers from the week and weekend. And all honesty if I attended le cordon blue I would brag about it too I spent all that money so why not?!? Business is business so what ever is keeping them going is good for me. Go in with an open mind and stop complaining read more

Loved this place so much I went back 2 days later. It's my new favorite breakfast joint!

nice small place not loud at all mostly older clientele, really good eggs benedict..

Went 1 time. It was OK but nothing special. Waitress was good. Place was clean.

long time customer of karens kitchen and now phebie's cafe has my business... i have really enjoyed the lunch specials when chef martha cooks up recipes with that touch of le cordon bleu! expect good old traditional breakfasts and lunch folks until they start opening for dinner as i have it on good authority this will be happening soon at which time chef martha will release her le cordon bleu on us! i can't wait! yum, yum, yum! read more

I love this place!! their food is good and plenty of it!! They are friendly, funny and we have never had bad service! Now, I would like to see them put an outdoor patio...I think that would be wonderful....it does get busy there!! But, we have never had a bad experience there..... read more

I have only been there once for breakfast with a friend My chicken fried steak was very good. The home fries with onion were perfect My friend had corn beef hash and eggs nothing special but not bad. The biscuits and gravy were huge and tasty I'm a retried Electrician that traveled all over LA .to different job sites You might say I have a few coffee shops under my belt Phebie's works for me I.m going back this morning read more
