The service was quick and friendly. Food quality is true Southern at its best! Biscuits and Gravy were amazing! Coffee and OJ were fresh! Eggs, sausage and hash browns cooked to perfection! Highly recommend this place! read more

A great find! We have been wanting a little cafe like this and wished we had found it sooner. The food is fairly priced and they have a great menu. The food isn't amazing but it's very good and does the job. The service is wonderful. Everyone is so nice and friendly. The food took a little while but we didn't mind. I loved that they offered gluten free bread! read more

Scrambles Cafe - Gluten free turkey sandwich - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ocala, Florida

The cafe is very popular especially on a Sunday after church. The food is good, no frills, diner-style. Staff are friendly and this place has lots of regulars, it seemed like everyone was on a first name basis. We were traveling with a very hungry child and when searching for kid-friendly options in Ocala, this was one of the few that did not have health department violations so seemed an easy decision, even if it was a little out of our way. The challenge was the wait time. We only waited 15 minutes to be seated but we waited 40 minutes to get our food (pancakes, quiche, and a burger). Our son made sure the whole restaurant knew how hungry he was. Our waitress kindly brought out a basket of crackers which he proceeded to devour. I also supplemented with snacks from my purse. But she did not give us any updates or apologize for the wait. We almost walked out, but then our food arrived. The food was okay, but very basic. For example, side salad was just ice berg with a slice of tomato and some red onion. Nothing wrong, just nothing fancy. I would only recommend coming here if you are not hungry and can afford to wait. read more

this server or waitress named kim tooker was so nasty to everyone and took so long and was just being rude to everyone i love the restaurant but just ask for a different waitress. read more

Oh my gosh. I don't know where to start..This place Scrambles Cafe is the very best breakfast place we've ever been to.. the service was excellent right from the beginning getting greeted by the Manager Bob, who is a sweet, humble guy and funny. Our waitress Laura was very good, fun too and an excellent waitress.. there is plenty to choose from on the menu and the food was very very good, and great prices.. it's not a big place but it has a BIG HEART!!! Go here for breakfast or lunch, as they are only open til 2pm I promise you will not be disappointed. We are going back very soon!!!!!! Tell Bob that Barbie and Danny told you about this great place. read more

The place is nice and clean with a good atmosphere. The service was excellent our waitress name was Melody and she was very kind and helpful. They do have a variety of meals in the menu, but unfortunately not too many options for food allergies. read more

Food is always good. employees are nice. The problem is whenever you place a to go order, they say it'll be ready at, let's say 11 AM. You get there at 11 AM and literally wait 30 to 45 minutes. Every time. Just be honest and tell me when it's gonna be ready. read more

After an early doctors appointment, we decided to eat at Scrambles Cafe off of Mericamp on Ocala's southeast side (where we rarely dine). Shortly after 9 am, we were seated right away. I won't lie, first thing I saw was a fine layer of dust right at my eye level on the ledge along side the wall partition. Not what I expected to see, but... Our server, Brandie, was pretty busy, but she touched base a couple times letting us know she would be with us soon. She got our drinks quickly and circled back to get our orders shortly after. My partner got the fruit crepes (they ran out and waiting for more was part of the delay) and a blueberry muffin. She enjoyed the crepes and really loved the muffin, that our server said were made in-house. I had the scramble piled high: two eggs and sausage on an open faced biscuit, buried in sausage gravy. My side were the fried potatoes - hands down the BEST fried potatoes I've had in a very long time. Overall, a delicious breakfast. read more

Place was great. service was on point and pretty good. Food tasted good and tasted a little like home. Bacon was great. I had the blueberry french toast special and I was not happy with only getting 2 pieces of small toast sticks. When I hear french toast I assume 2 full size pieces. Not 1/3 of a piece of toast. so I got 2/3 a single piece of toast. The flavor was great and different. Wife approved pancakes. and she is a pancake snob as her mother is as well. I could not believe how busy it was at 9am on a weekday. Wednesday. It might have been the church event next door. But I will go back since I cant get to the breakfast station that is 35-40 mins of driving each way. Keke's is a little better but the price her was better. Keke's gives you larger portions. It is family owned and a great small location. Was kind of loud as well. read more

Nice little Diner. Came here for breakfast, we were seated right away upon entering however it did take awhile for our server to great us and take our drink order. Ordered the Breakfast Sampler and Set a Good "Eggsample" , once we placed our order food came out quickly and hot. Our orders were exactly what we ordered with nothing missing and nothing wrong. Food is good and what you expect from Diners serving Breakfast and Lunch. Would definitely return!! read more

Wish I could rate this place better, but it 2nd time here and it fails to meet even all but the most minimal expectations, best think I can say is the coffee was decent. Its clear the place has a low end food supplier and doesn't pay the chef enough to care, even thought the prices are significantly higher than the other local diners with a similar menu. read more

Food is always excellent and the staff, many of whom are a family, are superb. Be ready for a little wait, the crowds indicate this restaurant's preference read more

Scrambles is the best, their food is really good and very reasonable and the staff there are very friendly and very nice!!!!!!! I would recommend it to everybody!!!!!!!! read more

Haven't been here for a year. Used to be my go to for breakfast. Decided to go today and was surprised by the renovation and new management. Food was very good and the service was excellent. Actually other than the management and the new booths and menus it's still a pleasant experience for breakfast or brunch. Still has a couple of wait staff who as usual gave a friendly hello. This is and always has been a real nice neighborhood type cafe. Try it. I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

This diner looks like the old diners from the movies. Plenty of tables with mismatched coffee mugs. I was seated in a back area against the wall and noticed they were setting up for a big party to come on. My waitress was very friendly and attentive. She made sure to get my order in before the large group. I ordered the skillet with ham, bacon, mushrooms and bell peppers. My food came out quickly and was hot. I was happy about the fast service because I had to head to a meeting. Honestly, I couldn't taste any of the toppings. The potatoes were well seasoned but the veggies and meat were non existent. The English muffin was a bit burned too. I wouldn't order the skillet again but I may stop in for breakfast the next time I'm in the area because it is located so close to my meeting. read more

Scrambles Cafe - Potato skillet with ham, bacon, mushrooms and green peppers. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Food is good but they are light on the potatoes. Everyone at the table got small portions of anything that was made from a potatoes . We all love the food but disappointed in the potatoes portions Light on the spicy fries Light on French fries Light on the hash browns Light on the grill potatoes . Almost 5 stars read more

Everything was great. The service was attentive. Sarah was the best. She made spot on suggestions. I enjoyed the homemade pancakes and biscuits, but way to much food to eat it all. My husband had the country ham and really enjoyed it. He said it wasn't too salty which is usually the case. It's a tad bit off the beaten path, but nice experience. read more

Just recently visited twice, both times the breakfast food was delicious and service was solid. The house potatoes were well seasoned and crispy both times. the only thing i was not blown away by was the pancakes and french toast but I am more of eggs, meat, and potatoes guy anyways so I am a big fan of scrambles cafe. read more

I had a great workout at Planet Fitness and was looking to reward myself so ordered the Mushroom Swiss Smash Burger with Tater Tots. It was simply the best I ever had no question about it. Our great server said they buy the beef locally with no antibiotics etc and was so worth it. read more

Food was very good. Our server was very sweet and checked on us several times. Food was fast and came hot.

It hard to describe our experience. Seated promptly. After that everything went down hill. Took 15 minutes before we were asked if we wanted anything to drink. 10 minutes later came our coffee and Ice Tea. At that time we placed our food order. I took over 50 minutes for our food to come out while other tables that came in after were served. We should have paid for our drinks and left. We felt like we were being ignored. As most of the people seemed regulars. Our food was cold and we both only ate portions of our food. It might be a nice place if you're a regular but not if you're not. I rarely give this kind of review but this was a terrible experience. Sorry read more

Great breakfast spot! Had breakfast with friends on Saturday morning and enjoyed it very much. This is a welcoming location and the servers are very friendly and attentive. Their biscuits looked amazing; unfortunately I didn't order one but had creamed chipped beef over toast, two eggs and potatoes. Everything was delicious. Good coffee as well. Nice place to have a pleasant breakfast. read more

Great little mom and pop vibe which was just what I was looking for with my trip to Ocala. Hot fresh coffee and the French toast was delish. My favorite part for this southern girl was the grits prepared to perfection! The menu gives a nice variety for anyone's tastebuds to leave happy! read more

Food and options were good still looking for a great eggs Benedict place in ocala but eggs came over cooked for my preference but the service was amazing read more

Popular with young & older people. It took several minutes to get a waitress, when we did, really liked their coffee (not a fan of alot Ocala places) This was more brunch hour & they were still busy. Egg Benedict was great, eggs perfect. Hubs had the CF steak & it was so tender, you could cut with a fork. DELICIOUS & tender. This will be our go to breakfast spot on this side of town. read more

Everything is always wonderful and the service is too notch. I love their pancakes, can only eat 1, they are huge, the omelets are also great. read more

I don't understand how this place has good reviews. I can't understand how. The food is not good and the service is even worse. The ambiance is good if you know the cranky waitress and then she'll be nice and give you at best D+ service. I guess if you're regulars you may get better food and service but I'd avoid it at all costs. The younger waitress for the people next to us seemed to be a lot nicer but unfortunately we didn't get her. The biscuits and gravy, dry as a bone and tasteless. Eggs, they couldn't cook any eggs right, so I can't judge them correctly. Coffee was watery. Overall not worth the hassle or terrible food. read more

Great, Great food. Wonderful Service and great Ambiance. Best Breakfast in Ocala. Drove from Tampa area just to eat at Scrambles.

Great food. Extras that other restaurants don't have...raisin toast, V-8 juice, etc. Grilled potatoes are delicious. Good service. We've been coming here for years. read more

Best breakfast place in the area and great service! Well worth the wait for a table. I've never had a bad experience, love this place.

Nice restaurant and the servers were very accommodating. They kept our coffees full and it was great coffee and fresh. The breakfast meats were delicious. We'll be back. I am a French toast fanatic/waffle fanatic. The French toast was tasteless to me. I did not detect vanilla or cinnamon in the custard. The homemade bread was the only redeeming factor. It provided the right texture. Also, my food was not hot. I am the queen of 2nd chances/redemption. Lol. So, we will be back and I hope to give this place a 5-star review next time. Although this place was bustling with activity and we had to get on a "waitlist", we only had to wait about 12-15 mins on a busy Saturday before Mother's Day (5/11/24). The whole team was amazing! Oh and the bathrooms were clean. That's important. read more
