Everyone that works there is amazing and the food is straight breakfast fire! Worth the wait to be seated on a weekend but if you can, hit it up on a weekday and just eat to your hearts content. read more

Secondly time going here and not disappointed! My husband and I were here on Tuesday this week while in the area for a medical appointment. We were here in the morning for breakfast. I ordered the breakfast burrito and he ordered the sausage gravy omelette. Highly recommend! Our server, DeMario, was awesome as well. Service was slow but the food out beats that! Prices are a bit elevated but you receive huge servings that are delicious. read more

Great menu, lots of options. No need to ala carte. Prices were fair. Table options were great and the hi back booths gave great privacy. Food was delicious, portions were great. Try the homemade jam, you won't be sorry. read more

I've heard so many good things about this place from more than 1 person, so I went and tried it a couple of years ago and was really not impressed. I felt it looked a little dirty to be honest and it was because the table felt sticky and so was the seat. Went back again to give it an honest try and again was not impressed but not just by the food and the way it was served (sloppy) but the place looked dirty. I don't mean just the floor, the seats felt grimy and sticky..... just won't be returning read more

Walked in this morning 10:05. It took be 10 minutes for waitress to come to our table and take out order. At 10 :45 we walked out.. no food... Poor service.. no explanation. Asked to talk to the manager, but he/ she was to busy in the kitchen to talk to us. Poached eggs take 1 minute... You can get breakfast food anywhere. read more

Great food and great service. I enjoy the employees and the breakfast atmosphere. Definitely a busy Sunday brunch spot but worth the wait!

We visited Red Geranium maybe 3-4 years ago for lunch and it was ok. The service was slow, place was kind of clean, waitresses were friendly and food was just ok. We decided to go again recently and found things had not changed much. We went for breakfast this time. We probably waited 5 minutes after we were seated for a waitress to come take our order. I will say, they were busy and only saw a few waitresses working so figured that was the problem. When one did come over, we put our order in while we had her there. She poured our coffee which was steaming hot, which was a huge plus as we usually find decaf coffee to be less than hot in a restaurant. She did come and refill our cups when they were empty, another plus. The food came quickly, but not really hot, warm at best. She forgot my strawberries on my waffle, but took it back and put them and whipped cream on top. The food tasted good even tho it was just warm. Even tho the dining room was full, it wasn't overly loud which was also a plus. I would go back again and hopefully the food will be warmer and tables a little cleaner. read more

I am sincerely puzzled how this cafe and receive low reviews. Just watching the plates being served to others made we wish I could live closer and patron this restaurant frequently. I was not disappointed with my breakfast or the service. Melissa was personable and kept checking in to make sure everything was going well. My beverages were being refilled despite the place was busy. I felt well care for and special. Customer service and food quality right down to fresh brewed iced tea and the homemade jams were exceptional!! Price points are reasonable and portion sizes are large. All the ingredients were fresh and tasty. In fact the portions are so big you might need a doggy bag. I called mine breakfast/lunch as it provided me two meals. I will not have to stop on my way trlabeling home as this provided plenty of food to call it breakfast/lunch. I am truly more than satisfied with my entire meal all levels imaginable. Thank you red geranium cafe and Melissa for such a WONDERFUL dining experience. read more

I have been wanting to try this place out for awhile now due to hearing all the great reviews on Yelp. I am not usually in the areas where their establishment is located, which is why it has taken me awhile to get here. I met with a friend here during the week. She has never been here either so we were both eager to try it out. I would say my experience was just average. Nothing to rave about and nothing too terrible to complain about either. The place is very plain jane in decor. We opted for a booth because the place is very open so the tables in the middle just seem very exposed to everyone. This wasn't something my friend wanted to experience. The waitress did a good job bustling around helping out all of her tables while keeping the coffee full. My food was in large proportion to the size, easily could take some home. My only dislike is that I got an omelette made with egg whites and it was pretty watery. Maybe because I had spinach in it, which can retain water - could have been cooked a little longer. It was decent anyway, but just a note. If this place was close to where I lived, I would go again. Definitely better than some others in town, but not a place I am going to drag people to. read more

Solid breakfast spot! Not to say I left craving any of their offerings, but they make super stuffed omelettes and decent pancakes that left me satisfied. After going to the nearby IHOP the next day, Red Geranium was superior despite my love for IHOP. The local IHOP line cooks are not on their game. They also serve this interesting sugar bread as a side. Super thick cut cinnamon bread they griddle and it has a thick layer of gooey sugar on the top crust. It was tasty and I have never seen anything like it. This place gets packed so go on an off peak time to be seated without a wait. read more

Signs...that you are about to enjoy a good breakfast: 1) When you open the front door and find the place packed with locals - on a Friday morning. (But do disregard the handprints all over the glass door as you enter. Can we get somebody with some Windex and paper towels over here?) 2) You get a friendly greeting and a "sit anywhere" from a staff member the moment you walk in. 3) The menu is not foodie-oriented or overly inventive - but the items are a solid representation of classic American breakfast fare - without the cute names or high prices. I asked for strong coffee and got it. Unfortunately this pot might have spent a bit more time on the old Bunn warmer than it should have. It was late morning, so this is a forgivable oversight. My eggs were perfect; but the biscuits & gravy could use a little tweaking. The flavor was spot on; but the thermal temperature of the dish needed to be dialed up a bit - I like my food hot. The biscuits were not readily visible under the enormous pool of delicious gravy; and required extrication A shame to waste such tasty sauce on thin, flat biscuits. How about some big fluffy biscuits next time? The hash browns, however, were heavenly. A golden crusted nest of grated potatoes that were so light they would have probably floated off the plate had I not devoured them so quickly. So - the interior of the place is a bit shabby, but the food is good. The price is right. You should go. read more

The Red Geranium in Wyoming is my wife's and my go-to place for Saturday morning breakfast, and sometimes lunch after church. I have had almost everything on the menu and some of the specials. The biscuits and gravy are the best I've had in 30 years, seriously. Eggs and meats are done right and the Creole Chicken Benedict, currently on the specials menu, is worth the price of admission. I love the Pig Pile, a mess of tator tots, meat, eggs, and sausage gravy. If you don't think you can go for that, there are many others to choose from. Not a fan of the omlette, I prefer something fluffier, but make another choice, there are many. Have I mentioned burgers and sandwiches? Those are tasty too with chips, fries, or onion rings. Pepsi products and special coffees complete the menu. Oh, and the wait staff? They're great but if Kate is your server you have been upgraded to first class without being charged. We prefer the Byron Center Avenue location because it's not as noisy and the food is just a touch better, bit that's my opinion and I can't give you anyone else's. Go, enjoy, and tip well-- you won't be disappointed. read more

Red Geranium Cafe - Creole Chicken Benedict with home fries, absolutely fabulous. - Cafes Near Me - Wyoming, Michigan

For greasy spoon breakfast spots this is as good as it gets around our house. Never had a bad meal or bad service here in about 4 to 5 trips. You might have to wait for a table, but turn over is quick and if you are impatient they'll give you a cup of coffee while you wait. Open till about 2pm but never had lunch only breakfast. Bacon and hashbrowns sides are always cooked to perfection, just the way I order them. Amount of whipped cream on waffles will knock your socks off so be ready for it. I like to support local businesses that do it right. Nothing flashy in here just great food and great service, what else do you need? See you here for breakfast on the weekends. read more

Small cafe in strip mall location. We visited about 10am on a Saturday and there was a small line, but we were seated in just a few minutes. Enormous portions , selection is great and the breakfast among the best diner food I've had. Truly a hidden gem. read more

Yummy! Great food, good prices. Able to split meals. Bc the portions are generous. We'll be back

I have enjoyed their food every time I've gone here. Has a lot of skillet and omelette options to choose from! read more

This place seemed like it would be ok. They have a big breakfast and lunch menu. I like breakfast, but this wasn't anything special. The service itself was ok but it took way too long to get three breakfast dishes out. Our food came out fine, however my eggs tasted like onions for some weird reason. Overall I wouldn't really recommend it and I don't think I would go back. read more

I was told by my client that this was a good lunch restaurant for "American food." I hadn't realized that included using "American cheese" instead of cheddar. Over all, the food was decent, but nothing I'd drive out of the way for. The menu is very predictable for these kinds of places: breakfast all day, club sandwiches, Rueben, tuna salad, wraps, basic burgers, etc. I was in and out faster than any other place I've eaten at recently and I'll keep that in mind if I'm in a hurry, but not wanting fast food. read more

There service is horrible and food has went way down. We waited over 30 min for our food and it was cold. Had to send back.

Used the yelp app this Sunday to find a restaurant for breakfast. Although we have lived in the area over 2 years, we hadn't heard of the Red Geranium. What an awesome find. Breakfast was fantastic, the service was quick and very friendly. We will be back again and again. read more

My husband and I decided to take our kids out for breakfast on a holiday weekend. We drove to multiple locations that had at least a 30-60 minute wait. As a last resort we headed to the Red Geranium. There was a line, but not as long as the others, so we decided to take our chances. 15 minutes later we were seated at a table. I was so impressed with how fast the turnover was, without making people feel rushed. I got the Eggs Benedict, my husband got one of the skillets, and my kids each got a giant pancake. Everything was excellent. The portions were big, but not so big that we couldn't finish our meals. My kids are already planning what they will have on our next visit. Overall, the food was excellent without breaking the bank. read more

Ate breakfast here with my family, not a large party, a total of 4 people. We had to wait quite some time. It also took some time for our waitress to come to our table to get our orders. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered a skillet, and it was delicious and very filling. Highly recommend. Other than the slowish service, this restaurant was really good and I highly recommend. read more

What a find! Tucked into a little strip mall is an absolute gem of a breakfast eatery. The food is delicious and the portion sizes are huge; no one could dare shake a finger at the outstanding value. Service here is consistently fast and attentive, even when they're slamming busy after a Sunday-after-church rush they still manage to give outstanding service without the typical 30-45 minute wait! Even at their busiest the longest I've ever waited to be seated was 10 minutes. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great breakfast spot, it's worth going back to on a weekly basis! read more

My new favorite breakfast spot! My boyfriend and I just moved to Grandville and discovered this place and we are now both addicted. So good!!! read more

Food here is alright, but the service is absolutely terrible. The restaurant is just woefully understaffed. There's regularly empty tables, with a crowd of people backed in the doorway. When they added on to their space, they should have added more people or just made the new space a waiting area. read more

Great place for the price. Good breakfast. Love to take the family there on Sunday's for breakfast or lunch. Can be very busy.

Good breakfast value!! Not a bad wait, and the coffee was good. Service was excellent

If you have ever been to a monster truck rally, you have experienced the noise level and this popular resturant. Potatoes flying, eggs frying and a wait staff that has to be part psychic. Besides the fact the manager spilled coffee on my GREY slacks, I thought it was a rather good breakfast. Their eggs really do taste better than the ones I make at home(....??) but they don't pay much attention to the bacon which was part not done and part burnt. It was, after a fashion, edible. Nice bagel, and a great waitress so I would go back. Grand Rapids has frequented this restaurant in various locations and at various times since the 70's, so I am willing to revisit them at some point in the future. I will however, turn my hearing aids off. And be sure my napkin is covering my pants. read more

Always the best choice for breakfast. Good food, great people, just wish the customers werent so rude.

The best breakfast around. Reasonable prices, large variety, good food. Always busy on weekend mornings, but worth the wait - there's a good reason for the wait. They also do to-go orders if you don't have time to wait. I've had a variety of menu items such as the Belgian waffle, omelets, and skillets. Highly recommend anything. read more

Of the many years I've frequented Michigan St location, and this one , this is the first I've had a bad experience. The wait staff tried to move us to the " new area " which I found cold and bland, no atmosphere, no 'glad your here ' feeling. just blaaahh! Also, you have taken away the cafe experience of watching the line cooks do their work ( one of the fun things of coming here) you have installed a wall, how tacky! Then a TV screen at the "so called bar" that is so large I need to sit back 10' , plus I don't like looking at a wall 5' from me. We chose to sit in the "older area" which seemed to piss off the wait staff since our waitress was already overwhelmed with orders because other patrons had chose to sit in the "old area" which feels very cramped now that you installed " the Wall" between the kitchen and the patrons. So the atmosphere has gone because of bad design decisions,BLECH! And further on as I bitch, our waitress was very stressed & "itchy" ( however she received a generous tip) . Our food was cold ,the sw omelet -- chorizo was..where? Too many spuds ,no flavor. The American fries w/ onion ? cold........Grrrrrrrrrrrrr. Also I used a coupon to get this delectable breakfast as purchase one and get one free, both Coooold! Hesitant to tell the poor stressed waitress we choked down the grub as much as we could and left . Sincerely, Mark Levandoski a faithful patron who cares:) read more

Great staff, amazing food. Went for brunch on a Saturday morning and was highly impressed, will return!

If you visit on a weekend morning, plan on waiting for a bit but it is worth it. We've always had friendly service and great food.

The biscuits & gravy are to die for! Don't judge but I usually get that and the Florence Benedict. I need to try the rest of their menu. They do have pretty cheap deals for the early birds. read more

Yum. Skillets and omelets are very filling and delicious. I'm on a very restrictive nutrition plan due to a medical condition - our server was very helpful, answered my questions, suggested substitutions, and wasn't bothered with my food issues. Just passing thru so not likely to be back, but it would be a go-to if I lived here. read more

Stopped here for breakfast thinking it was more of a quick sandwich-type shop (or pre-made stuff) and pleasantly found it is a full-scale diner. It was fairly busy and seemed to have a handful of regulars which was a good sign. I sat at the "bar" up front (not sure what else to call it) and enjoyed watching the cook do his thing while I waited and ate. I got chocolate chip pancakes and eggs and bacon. The price was great for how much I got, the pancakes were huge, I had two and would have been fine with just one. The service was good and so was the food, exactly what you want from a place like this. read more

Cute litte mom n pop style diner in Mayberry...... it's a busy place but the wait is not that long.. maybe 10-15 minutes.. Good food.. decent service. Bacon was waaaay too crispy. almost burnt. read more

Used to be a great place to eat- but sadly has gone downhill. The past 2 visits have been very very slow service. In addition, orders are wrong and the toast is typically burnt. They need to stop focusing on filling coffee cups and how to keep staff motivated to show up and work. We need more quality breakfast places in this area! read more

It was very good and they let us try the special toast for free because we had not been there before. Would go back if in the area again!

Great diner. Service is always great and food comes out quickly. Hash browns crispy and delicious. Menu has a good number of options with some good specials. Never had a sandwich there, but all the breakfast items I've had are very good. read more
