In Austin and find yourself downtown? Check out this cleanly, spacious, diner. What a treat! The hubs and I split the Brisket Benny with a side of fruit. Holy moly what a treat smoky flavored huge hunks of bbq brisket over a homemade biscuit, topped by a nicely cooked egg with just the right amount of hollandaise sauce. Great flavors and fresh. Would we come back? Heck yah! Very friendly staff. Kelly, our sever, was awesome recommended the shrimp n grits- they just sounded too spicy for me. If only he would have provided the winning lottery numbers...I told him I'd split the wins with him. Thanks Kelly for an awesome experience!! read more

Wow! Such great service here, real Texas hospitality. I opted for the chicken Fried Steak which was phenomenal! Its my typical goto breakfast order and it exceeded my expectations. Definitely in my top 3. Order some cocktails along with our meal and they were fruity and delightful. Loved the food and vibes, definitely coming back on my next trip to Austin. read more

I would have given this place a 5 star if the servers and host were more friendly. They just seem to do the average. I was alone and usually servers will talk to me but this one was just doing the job and no more. She wasn't busy or I would have understood no small talk, but not the case. The host took me 10 feet from host stand and basically tossed the menus on the table. Geesh Thankfully the food was good. read more

I enjoyed the nice and service here on Friday for brunch. The wait wasn't very long and we were sat at a nice area of the restaurant. The food was tasty though we were surprised by the portions. The side of bacon was only one slice for around $7, the shrimp and grits didn't include many grits, the non refillable drinks were very small, and the French toast was tasty but quite large. I will definitely dine here again because the food was good and the service was great. read more

The servers are always so sweet and kind. Great food and overall good vibe definitely recommend Phoebe's diner.

Great portions, good coffee and the food was good. Very busy, but the staff is friendly and efficient. They move things fast so you don't feel like you're waiting forever. read more

This place was bomb dot com! The food is delicious! Please try the cheeky monkey! Their drinks were amazing! Service is outstanding. We went on a Saturday around 11:30am...no wait, although it started getting pretty busy as we left. Restaurant is very clean, simple decor. It is a little pricey considering it's just breakfast...our check was almost $80. Would go back regardless, food was amazing! read more

I found this breakfast place on Yelp, and heard it got packed on weekends, but glad we went on a Wednesday morning. It was close to where we were staying. The lady who greeted us, and became our waitress (sorry, forgot her name) was always smiling and very polite! My husband does usually like "Benny" (as he does not like poached eggs), but got him to try the "Brisket benny' and she allowed him to switch to "over medium" eggs. I then got the "Pulled pork benny", with eggs done the same way. And we HAD to try (as read on Yelp),the "Cheeky Monkey" (which is basically a Scotch egg, then in a bowl with OMG gravy sauce". This Sausage/egg ball was best thing we ate! I took a bite of his benny, and like his better. The brisket was moist and the biscuit was good. On mine, I liked the pulled pork (and she said it was going to be "sweet" due to Carolina sauce". But, what made it "over sweet", was actually the corn bread..it was sweet, and unfortunately, very dry. I just ate the egg, sauce, and pulled pork. I will give them "cudos" to the gravy, as stated above, and the Hollandaise sauce (which most restaurants mess up) on both bennys were outstanding! read more

Out of towners stumbling around a bit hung over and looking for some food medicine. Chicken fried steak was very good. Krispy exterior and well seasoned. Served with tasty asparagus and bland (needed salt) potatoes. Cheeky Monkey - yes! Square biscuits (good not great) savory gravy (almost perfect). Overall we would highly recommend. Thanks Austin. read more

Came here on a weekday morning in search of a breakfast place for a visiting out-of-town guest. The food was good and service was friendly. They have a yelp check in for the waitlist which I liked, but there was no one in line so we were seated immediately. I ordered the brisket burrito which was good, but incredibly rich. I couldn't finish it and would likely order something different next time. Prices were a little high, but on par with it being downtown. We did have to drive a bit to find parking, but there are plenty of side streets so it wasn't too bad. The only complaint I have is the giant fan. We were seated directly underneath it and it was freezing making it really unpleasant to enjoy our breakfast as we just wanted to leave quickly because it was so cold. We did ask for it to be turned down, which it appeared to be, but it was still incredibly cold with the AC on and huge fan on overhead. read more

I'm not really sure what to say about this place. It's just a typical really good little diner. This location is top notch in their cleaning. The food is always fresh and delicious, the staff is helpful and friendly enough, and the vibes are just classic American eating. The outdoor seating is shaded and covered from any rain, a solid option if you want it. As a really good diner, you can expect it to be wildly busy during the weekend breakfast and lunch hours. Worth a bit of a wait, but be prepared and don't arrive already hangry. The Thai coffee is sooo sweet and delicious. The regular coffee is fine. The crispy Brussel sprouts never disappoint. I'm told the chicken fried steak is good too. Highly recommend you make a trip to Phoebe's. read more

Great place for brunch! We sat out on the patio (very small, but nice) since it was pretty loud and crowded inside on a Saturday morning. Our server was fantastic- she went over and beyond for us. The food was tasty and not overly priced (like many brunch places in Austin now). I would definitely return back! read more

Breakfast burrito and shrimp and grits were both delicious. Shrimp and grits was a little spicy. Great service and vibe.

5 stars for the grits, burrata omelet, banana foster French toast, and extra thick sliced bacon! They offer a few BOGO deals on UberEats. I opted for the BOGO cafe du monde (iced coffee) which was perfect on a hot summers day in Austin. read more

Food was mediocre and eggs not cooked properly. Server was talking on phone while serving us. Not sure how they got the high ratings. read more

Popular place with a Texas twist so it has a more unique menu than the standard diner. Service was friendly and prices are pretty decent. I got the fried chicken and grits. The grits were pretty good but not as creamy delicious as the cheesy grits I had the day before. The fried chicken was more like a schnitzel since they use chicken breast, lightly battered, and it was on the dry side. It was salty and tasted fine but not something I'd get again. We got there earlyish and didn't have any waits but when we left there were a lot of people waiting so go early if you can. read more

Met a dear friend for brunch last week at phoebe's across from the jail on 11th. Cute place, great energy and good vibes! Everyone in there was working and the environment was conducive! read more

One of the reasons we went to Phoebe's was that it was walking distance from our timeshare. Plus, it had some interesting items on the menu. I had the Cheeky Monkey and it was different and SO GOOD! The waiter, who was terrific, told us it was their version of a Scotch egg. Had no ideal what that was, but it was delish! It was plenty big for my breakfast and with an egg, sausage, potatoes and gravy all wrapped up in one dish, I didn't need anything else. Very clean, very cute place. I highly recommend. read more

Picked this place for breakfast after reading other reviews. I must say we were very impressed from the time we walked in until the time we left. Nice atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, and a great menu. We ordered the deep fried French toast with bananas, migas, and the brisket Benny. Everyone enjoyed their meals! The breakfast Brent was definitely a hit if you want to mix breakfast with barbecue! Will definitely be back and would recommend for anyone who wants try a great breakfast spot! read more

Food and service were great. The hash was a bowl of goodness. So many delicious options something for everyone.

What a cool vibe. Parking was virtually impossible (we got very lucky with a spot in the lot, but if you're hangry, beware you may need to circle. Is it worth circling for? Yes! While many other breakfast spots in this area are downtown with even more impossible (and expensive) parking, this spot is so humble and unassuming, in the more hipster and artsy part of Austin. We sat outside in the covered patio area and it was absolutely lovely. I ordered the "badass bacon & eggs" and was not disappointed. I've been places that claim to have slab bacon but it's really just thicker cut. This comes with THICK bacon with great flavor. Eggs and toast are eggs and toast, but I've never had anything like the hash brown casserole before or again. If I lived in Austin, I would probably live here... at least until 3pm. Service was great. My coffee cup stayed full. Definitely check this place out if you can't decide on somewhere for breakfast. read more

The Chicken Biscuit was sooooo good, we had a food coma after this meal. The chicken was juicy and perfectly seasoned, the biscuit was different from others I've had in a good way. The gravy also adds a little extra flavor, highly recommend. We also got the Vietnamese Coffee but could've skipped on it, the coffee itself tasted burnt. But the Nitro Horchata Cold Brew was amazong! read more

I wonder how I've never reviewed Phoebe's Diner before, but this is truly one of my favorite brunch spots in the entire city. You'll definitely leave with a food coma, but it's the best way to spend a weekend morning. My favorite must-order is their cheeky monkey. If you like soft boiled eggs, this is something you have to get too. The sauce and how they cook it is so delicious. They also have really good coffee, so you should definitely get an iced coffee or Vietnamese coffee. read more

We love Phoebe's! Expert tip is to always join the waitlist before going/check the waitlist. It can be busy place, so make sure to consider that before heading that way. Food is delicious. We've also had the famous cheeky monkey (not pictured, but plenty of photos in reviews) and it was really delicious and unique! Our brunch was really delicious overall. The ambience is busy and certainly diner-istic. A fun breakfast spot. read more

Such a fabulous diner experience! We put in our name and, since we had a party of 6, we knew we'd have to wait for a bit. We took a walk down to the river and made it back a few minutes before our table was ready. The diner was busy but we were seated right away and our server came out quickly with waters and took our drink and food order. I ordered the fried chicken with goat cheese grits, wow, it was incredible. The spicy maple syrup pulled the whole dish together nicely. It was the perfect sweet and savory combination! The chicken was spiced and breaded perfectly and the onions and jalapeños added the right spice level. We Also ordered a deep fried French toast to share. It was like a trip to the fair - airy, light, sweet goodness topped with homemade whipped cream. Everything was so good and the service was helpful and sweet! Highly recommend! read more

We are visiting from Vegas and found Phoebe's Diner on Yelp of course. Mom and Son breakfast date and boy this didn't disappoint! Wow!! We had the Brussel sprouts to start and they were INCREDIBLE! Best I've ever had! I had brisket Benny and my son had the migos with chorizo. Everything was incredible, great flavor, great comfort food for sure! Our waitress, wow. Mary was the best waitress I've ever encountered. I told my Son if I were in the restaurant business she would be hired as my waitress training director because she's MAGIC! A beautiful soul indeed! Great energy! Thank you Mary!! We will definitely be back! read more

What a great old style diner, in Austin! service, food, and ambiance were all the besto.

Great service and suggestions. I wish I remember their name. Everything we got was awesome - Texas style (brisket) Benedict, fried green tomatoes app and shrimp and grits Cool ambiance and well priced read more

Craving a classic American breakfast? Give this place a try. Got the Phoebe's Benedict with avocado instead of ham (vegetarian-friendly!) and it was delicious. Perfectly savory buttermilk biscuits topped with eggs, hollandaise and avocado and served with hash brown casserole. Perfect burst of flavors in every bite! We also got a stack of buttermilk blueberry flapjacks to share with banana on top and they were deliciously rich and just the right amount of sweet (without the syrup) Service was as quick as can be expected with weekend crowds, our waitress did need to be flagged down a couple times but nothing to complain about for sure. Went here for Sunday brunch with some friends and this place was packed, expect a wait time of about 15-20 minutes on weekends! Family-friendly spot with some outdoor seating and they take drink orders while you wait -- overall, a solid weekend brunch spot for those post-Saturday shenanigans. read more

The food was awful and made us both sick. We got the "biscuits" and gravy. The biscuits were rock hard and not sure it what it was made of. We got the eggs and bacon with side of "hash browns". Not sure what slop the hash browns were but they were mush and tasted like dish soap. We threw the entire $50 order in the trash and both felt very sick even after only a couple bites of food. read more

I recently had breakfast at Phoebe's Diner in Austin, Texas, and it was a delightful experience. The decor is retro-inspired, with vibrant colors and funky details, giving the place a fun and lively vibe. We ordered the cornbread biscuits which come with 3 sides of jam and compote, all were flavorful and delicious and the muffins were so warm and fluffy. I ordered the baratta and pesto omelette which was delicious, I cleaned the plate. The cold brew coffee was very smooth and flavorful as well. I also tried the crab cake Benedict which I didn't love so much, it comes with crawfish and it makes the dish too fishy in my opinion. Overall a great spot for breakfast, everyone in our party really enjoyed their meal! Service was about all that was lacking, our waitress wasn't the friendliest or very attentive but it was fine. read more

I wanted a basic bacon and eggs type breakfast. It looked like Phoebes was my place. Food was ok. The thick bacon was not as crispy as I had hoped. I sat at the bar and there were plenty of staff/servers. However, I didn't think anyone was attentive as they should be. Lots of discussions about the previous nights activities among workers and lots of phone checking. I'm not sure what they think they might miss if they don't look at their phone every minute or two but that's just me. I would say that when you're looking at your phone you're not noticing that my coffee is low or that I'm finished eating and you can bring me the bill. I know this issue is at most service industries now but I don't t have to accept it as the new normal. If I have to get your attention to ask for something you're not attentive enough. I'll try Phoebes again and hope it's better service. read more
