    Banana and bourbon caramel bread pudding French toast (4/2025)
    Raquel G.

    Our food was delicious! We got the banana and bourbon caramel bread pudding French toast, home fries, and the huge compassion burrito. The home fries were perfectly crispy, the pork belly bacon was thick and well done. There are about a dozen tables. It's a wide open room, basic diner look, some wall hangings that had their name printed. The service was quick and efficient. We loved our food and will definitely return to check out the other menu items!

    Breakfast sandwich with fried potatoes
    Kirby H.

    This place was really great! A friend of mine got the corned beef hash which you let me try and the corn beef was amazing as they do it in House. The home fries or potatoes or the star of the show on both this and the breakfast sandwich that my other friend got. These potatoes were deep-fried super crispy on the outside and tender and perfect on the inside. I probably would go to this restaurant for these fried potatoes alone! I got the corn beef for egg omelette with a side of chimichurri aïoli. I honestly liked the corned beef hash that my friend let me try better even though I had corn beef in my omelette. It just seemed a little bit, not as tender in the omelette And the omelette lacked flavor, but I did use their ketchup, salt and pepper. I believe their ketchup was homemade. All in all, a solid experience. Will definitely be back!

    Compassion Burrito

    I have been to Scratch a couple different times and I really do love having such a nice breakfast spot nearby that offers unique menu items and is filled with friendly people! If I could do half stars this place would for sure be a 4.5/5 stars. The food here is always nice and hot and very large portion sizes. their home fries are big chunks of crispy potatoes, and I LOVE THEM. I love that their menu has traditional and non-traditional breakfast items. It is a bit pricy but you definitely get a lot of food, the compassion burrito is MASSIVE. All the food was delish, I wish the pork belly was not so hard it was a bit too crispy but good flavor. I love that their ketchup and hot sauce is homemade, the verde sauce is definitely my favorite. The place is small so just expect a wait as they get busy, and it can get pretty loud in there with it being tiny. The workers are always very very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu which is helpful. Definitely drop in this place and give it a go, they have some awesome flavors and sweet and savory options, so you are sure to find something you like. I definitely recommend the chorizo hash, it is my favorite for sure and best flavor out of a dish I have had there but it is a bit spicy!

    Biscuits & Gravy and Tiramisu Pancakes (2 Pc)

    Scratch has been doing the damn thing for years. The tiramisu pancakes always exceed my expectations as due their homemade sausage patties. Service is great. Can be a little loud. Be sure to check their hours!

    If I lived here I would eat here every day and die fat and happy. First visit I got the Eggs Benedict. I'd commit a misdemeanor to have it again. Second visit I got the Jalapeño Bacon Jam breakfast sammy. I'd commit a felony for it. Third visit I got the Compassion Burrito...I know run an international crime organization to fund my lifestyle.

    Banana & Bourbon Caramel Pudding French Toast 2 Eggs Any Style

    Hidden gem brunch spot in Independence. Interior is a bit small but we were able to get a table with a 15 minute wait. They text you when a table is ready so you can walk around the area while you wait. The interior is modern farmhouse style decor and, as a bonus, there's a chalkboard with chalk you can draw on! The food was INCREDIBLE, save for the fact they don't offer poached eggs. But their over easy eggs were perfect, and the bread pudding French toast was a unique and delightful addition to breakfast. The cinnamon roll waffle and chicken breakfast tacos are great as well!

    Can't believe I've been a mile away from this place and never tried it. Amazing homemade food. Friendly staff. Cozy dining experience. This was a home run! At least someone in this town can hit one, as the Guardians seem to be in a funk right now... this place will at least make you feel better and full of amazing food! Run, don't walk here! French toast was amazing to look at as my friend had that and didn't share!

    Chicken Tacos
    Keith B.

    We stopped in on a Friday around noon on our way to Cleveland. I knew I was in for a great meal as soon as I walked in. Friendly hardworking staff, patrons that seem like regulars, and an open kitchen. I ordered the chicken tacos and wife ordered the steak and egg bagel (she loved it). I can't describe how good those tacos were. To be honest I was a little skeptical when they were 15 dollars. They were worth every penny. The time and care the kitchen puts into that food makes it worth it. I left full and happy!

    Breakfast Burrito
    Nick H.

    Some of the best breakfast I've had in a long time. Wait staff was phenomenal. Educated, witty, energetic, attentive. My service was just as good as the food. This burrito was tremendous. Has to be on some sort of list ... perhaps a national treasure? Race here immediately to get your fix. It's a perfect breakfast cafe.

    Biscuits and gravy!

    We will be back! Had a wonderful breakfast there! They have a sweet and savory menu. So hard to decide! We ordered the burrito and the biscuits and gravy. Both were delicious! The potatoes were the best I have had! Next time I'm ordering from the sweet side or getting the overnight oats! The service was great too! Thank you!!!

    Chicken salad - tasty!
    Jenn G.

    I first went to Scratch at its previous location around the corner and had a wonderful pancake. Then I lost track of it. So happy to see this place is still thriving. Are there at Noon on a Thursday and it was packed. And noisy! So it you enjoy being in a lively place, this is your spot. I do wonder if the 1:30p close keeps folks away. Even an extra half hour might be helpful. I was curious to see how a lunch item would taste, since they clearly focus on breakfast. My salad was SO full of flavor! Yum. Barely even needed dressing; the chicken was seasoned to perfection. Can't wait to visit again and get another huge pancake.

    Steak, eggs and potatoes.

    Amazing place, this is a place you have to try it's not very spacious but the wait was worth it. When they called it Scratch they weren't kidding....they make everything even the ketchup.

    See all
