Great food, friendly service and ambience, ALWAYS packed. Today I introduced a fellow retired airline captain to Skillets. Over the decades, both of us have been to countless breakfast places around the country. This one is in the top ten!!!! read more

Solid, wee diner in Windsor. Nothing complicated or fancy, just a chill place for simple food and just the loveliest service. I had scrambled eggs and cheese with breakfast sausage and toast. One thing I really appreciated is the sausage links were not greasy -- they came out dry. My friend got the chicken sandwich and enjoyed it. If I lived in this area, I could see myself going here for breakfast or a cup of coffee and a book just to get the day started or to take a break from work in the afternoon. Looking forward to the next time. read more

I've been wanting to try this breakfast spot and I finally did, I was over due for a skillet. The waitress was attentive and friendly. She brought me a menu and asked what would I like to drink? They were busy, lots of regulars dining for breakfast but I was excited to see the skillet I ordered come out quickly. This was great with the hash browns underneath the scrabble. This will be a come back trip for me. I loved it all including my English muffin. read more

When you are craving a good old homeschool diner breakfast this is where you should immediately go. It's warm and fuzzy and makes you feel good. Also, they just redid all the boots inside and they're very comfortable and attractive to look at! Very good homemade salsa! read more

Drove through the area with my brother-in-law who loves going to diners, so we decided to try the Skillets Cafe. It turned out to be an excellent choice. It is a cozy little restaurant with the classic diner vibe. It's lunch time, so we had lunch food rather than breakfast. We had a Cheeseburger, a Skillets Melt, and a Buttermilk Pancake. Everything was delicious and portions were generous. Even the sides such as Potato Salad and Fruits tasted great. The fruits were very fresh. Service was excellent: friendly and attentive. We were checked on frequently by more than one waitress; and all of them wore a big smile. They really knew how to make customers feel welcome and appreciated. read more

If you want to eat local for breakfast, Skillet's is the breakfast headquarters. Their waffles are the best. My husband gets the big traditional breakfast and has been delighted that they prepare his eggs exactly how he likes his eggs. Try the country potatoes they're the best. The wait staff are excellent, you always have a full cup of coffee. I disagree with those who say you can't screw up breakfast, I've had that experience, but NEVER at Skillets. read more

Skillets Cafe has a relaxed vibe to it and is an amazing place for both breakfast and lunch. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. We were warmly welcomed and the people here were the friendliest and nicest people ever! The service was excellent and the food came out quickly after ordering it. The food was delicious and made me wonder why I don't eat out more for breakfast! The portion sizes are generous, especially for the prices. We truly loved everything about our breakfast experience here from start to finish! Highly recommend and we will definitely be back! read more

We had breakfast here on a girls trip to Windsor. We were not disappointed. Their scrambles were amazing. The crunchy potatoes on the bottom were spot on. The mushrooms and cheese and egg and spinach. All made this a fantastic dish. I'd love to go back and try more things and you should go to. read more

Good service. Quick and friendly. Had the garden omelet - pretty tasty The country stack was really disappointing. Almost not sausage in the gravy. Gravy was watery and tasteless. Hash browns were good. Best thing was the Belgian waffle. So flavorful with a hint of vanilla. Would do back just for that. read more

Was able to be seated immediately around 8 am on a Thursday. There was only one server working but they hustled and made sure you are taken care of. This place is a more modern diner so it's fine just feels a little sterile. I decided to go with the breakfast tacos and they were good just nothing ground breaking here. The hashbrowns were fine I just thought they could have used some more flavor. But the thing that left me wanting more was the diner coffee. That traditional diner coffee that is like a nectar of the gods for weary travelers and the hungover alike, but this coffee... was too watered down and didn't smack me in the face with the traditional bold coffee diner experience. read more

This is a regular go-to spot for us. Outside dining area is nothing fancy, but the food and servers never disappoint. They have an extensive menu of breakfast items, burgers, wraps and salads. My favorite is the breakfast quesadilla, (scrambled eggs, cheese, ham, tomato) and hash browns. We also ordered the chorizo scramble with hash browns and wheat toast. The food is always excellent. The employees are efficient, hard working and pleasant. They are always busy, rain or shine. Plenty of parking shared with other businesses and Raleys. They close at 2:00 daily. read more

With all the amazing places to eat in Sonoma County it's hard to stand out but Skillets is right up there at the top with their delicious food! I like that they keep their menu simple and make sure everything they make is of high quality. The place is pretty small and they fill up fast so don't be surprised if you have to wait a little while to be seated! read more

My husband and I were on the way to Healdsburg and decided to stop in Windsor for some breakfast. I'd remembered seeing Skillets listed online a while back when we were searching for restaurants in the area so we decided to try it out. Skillets has a nice outdoor seating area where dogs are welcome, which I appreciated. We sat inside and were tended to right away. Our server was very friendly and nice, and brought us some water and coffee as soon as we asked for it. I ordered the Denver omelette and my husband decided on the breakfast burrito. Normally the burrito comes with bacon but my husband asked if he could have chorizo instead and they were happy to oblige. My omelette came with hashbrowns and toast. My omelette was perfectly cooked and was packed with the fillings. My hashbrowns were nice and crispy as I like them. My husband loved his burrito and was so full after just eating a half that he took the other half home. Everything was delicious and the service was wonderful. My only request next time would be a little bit stronger coffee. We're not in the Windsor area too often but Skillets will definitely remain at the top of our list for breakfast when we're nearby. read more

Wow! I can't say enough great things about Skillets...it came highly recommended from the locals, we came right in we're seated and greeted by a friendly waitress. She made me feel so comfortable and walked me thru the menu with great patience. I ended up getting the yummy American skillet and my husband LOVED the Southern skillet. I wish we lived nearby because we would be regulars! read more

I have become a fan, and this is my go to place for breakfast now. Simple "old America" breakfasts as I would look at it and I love it. A favorite for me is poached eggs (always perfect) with their hashbrowns (always crisp) and an English muffin. Yep, go to place in Windsor for sure. Get their early on the weekends, always a line and rightly so. read more

This was right across the street from my hotel and I was hungry. I popped in and boy was it busy! I ordered the florentine eggs Benedict and it did not disappoint. The spinach and tomato were perfectly placed on top but the bombshell that set this on fire? Green onions on top! Yes! I will never want this dish again without green onions. The butter they use tasted like a foodgasm on the English muffin. They were so fast too! This place gets poppin so get there early! read more

Food was terrible. I ordered the Avocado French toast and that was 19 dollars. This deserved to be 7 dollars. I wish I read carefully what was entailed, but they had a generic toast bread with poached eggs and globs of balsamic sauce. 1, please use a different bread. It tasted bad with what they were trying to do. 2, I don't like runny yoke eggs. So, they just made the look and taste of everything not pleasant. All the other foods looked like the prices needed to be cheaper. Moreover, my waiteress was a kind lady, but if customers aren't eating your food and just sitting, there obviously is something wrong. So, you should ask and not ignore. I don't want to knock down, but please use this to improve . read more

Our waitress was fabulous. Even though this restaurant allows you to give a tip of 5 percent, she was tipped 20-25 percent for the fine service. He didn't enjoy his French toast with eggs and sausages and said the food was bland. However, I had the best Mexican omelette ever. It was my first Mexican omelette to be honest but I didn't know that a good one tasted like a cheeseburger wrapped in eggs and topped with pickled jalapenos, tons of guacamole and diced tomato. The hash brown was bland but I would eat their Mexican omelette every week if I lived in Windsor. Great breakfast place. Definitely recommend the Mexican omelette! read more
