I had high hopes for The Breakfast Spot, but this was hands down one of the most frustrating dining experiences I've had in a long time. From the moment you pull into the parking lot, it's complete chaos, cars double parked everywhere with no organization. Walking inside doesn't get any better. The place is overcrowded with DoorDash and Grubhub drivers just standing around, and there's no clear system for who's waiting, who's ordered, or where to go. You literally have to ask a dozen people just to figure out where the line starts. After finally placing our order, we were told it would be a 30-40 minute wait. That turned into an hour... then an hour and a half... then nearly two hours, with zero communication or updates. We even went back in after an hour, only to be told our food still wasn't ready, but were offered a tiny spoon of water ice as if that somehow made up for it. Then, after waiting even longer, we were finally told they were out of beef bacon, the main ingredient in both of our sandwiches, and asked if we wanted a substitute. At that point, absolutely not. We canceled the order. To make matters worse, instead of issuing a proper refund, we were told to "monitor our bank account" and come back if the charge doesn't fall off. That's unacceptable. At least the receipt says voided but I already know where I'll be on Wednesday read more

Met up with friends for lunch and this will not be my last visit. You place your order at the counter and then have a seat at a table or the counter. I ordered the fish & grits. Be prepared to wait for your food as it is cooked to order! Trust me...it is well worth the wait. Best cheese grits I've ever had (sooo savory!) and it came with 3 large portions of fried whiting. I washed it down with hibiscus tea. I only ate 1 portion of the fish and not even half of the grits and I'm stuffed! I can't wait to come back!!! read more

Let's say I decided to take a drive on Juneteenth and finally try this place out. Lol jokes on me because they were swamped with in house and online orders. The wait was 2hrs and believe it or not I decided to wait. I ordered the Stay Focused breakfast sandwich which consists of 2 thick pieces of French toast and in between I had the scrambled eggs with cheddar and spicy beef sausages. The sandwich itself is dusted with powdered sugar and topped with syrup. I'm not going to lie the sandwich was worth the wait and I would have loved to dine in and indulged in the sandwich. By the time I received my order it was after 2 and they had several more orders to go but I didn't want to prolong staying there and technically they close at 2. I had the opportunity to taste some peach water ice while waiting and it was delicious. I loved the art on the wall and I will definitely revisit in the future. read more

I wanted to rate this place a little higher and even though I rated it low I think it does have potential to be better and I will try them again. Decorated well inside and always greeted upon entering. Made a to go order over the phone. Food was already bagged and sealed but when I got home no utensils or syrup. Eggs and bacon were cooked as they should be. Potatoes were good and soft but they were greasy. But what really killed my mood was these overcooked or undercooked French toast slabs of bread. Try something else next time read more

Parking lot available. Came on Mother's Day; no wait, no reservations and not packed at all. Immediately greeted by friendly and engaging staff member. She informed us we could sit anywhere and provided us with menus and told us what the specials were. She even told us what people typically order and the comments. She mentioned that the fish and grits were always complemented but did admit she hasn't tried it since she doesn't eat seafood. Food came out hot, and ready to eat. The eggs and grits were seasoned so well, I couldn't stop eating. I received 3 big pieces of fish that were seasoned so well, had me thinking my granny was on the kitchen. Everything was so good. The pancakes were thick, tasty and not too dough. While there, business started picking up with to-go ordered being picked up and being coming in for table service. There was ample seating, and a TV for entertainment. Lastly, they even have to-go dinner platters that were reasonably priced. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

Killer sandwiches: it's new jersey. ready fast, food was hot, and it's your typical breakfast sandwich shop atmosphere, you can't go wrong!

I'm very confused because on IG they are showing wings, mac n cheese, candied yams and fried shrimp. For some reason, these things are not listed online, only breakfast. Maybe I have to physically go inside the establishment to order those items. Just a little tid bit, please put these things online for ordering. read more

I've been here 3 times. The food hasn't disappointed yet. I always enjoy my food. My issues are the prices. I feel like they add on extra fees. It's small inside it can probably seat 30 people. Also it takes very long to get food. I will go back because the food is great. read more

My son and I stopped in for breakfast. We ate inside and had an incredible breakfast!! Honestly the best pancakes I've ever had. I ordered a bagel sandwich and it was elevated with an herb butter on top. Very good. Yes, it did take a while - maybe 30 minutes. And we were the only ones in the store. There were take out orders though. The only thing I did not like was that even though we wanted to eat in, everything was served in take out containers. Would definitely go back, but I guess only takeout since it's just not geared toward dine in read more

Food was amazing! Atmosphere was amazing! Portion size was amazing. If I could give one critique it would be in the form of advice. Utilize your CAP X. Plates and silverware for a "real" dining experience would be worth the cost and return on investment. 4.98 out of 5 stars for me!!! read more

Ordered my takeout at 11:17am. I was told 30mins for my food to be ready, I'm currently still waiting for it. It is 12:15pm. The excuse was that there were "a lot of door dash orders & dine in orders". If you aren't prepared to wait a ridiculously long time for mediocre food, don't come here! I always try to support black businesses but...... read more

This Breakfast spot is AMAZING . The owner Tanesha (pray that's the correct spelling ) was so welcoming and aimed to make our FIRST experience wonderful. The portions were hearty and large enough to enjoy at home for another meal. We were even given a sample of the YUMMY FLAVORFUL fried fish to try. We will DEFINITELY be back. If you're not patient enough to wait a little while for GREAT food go somewhere else. But if you're in the business of supporting a small business owned by wonderful folks who make delicious food make your way to That Breakfast Spot right after church like we did and eat enough that you need to go home and take a nap! : ) read more

Here's what I do know, the young African American lady who works Saturday morning with a great smile, she needs a raise. I watched her do cashier, play busboy, waitress, handle the phone, handle doordash orders ANDDDDD she sets up a great playlist for music! I see a tip jar at the front but respectfully, she needs her own tip jar!! Yall have a real MVP right there, treat her right!! She sets the tone for crazy and busy Saturdays! The food is great but her customer service is everything and the last few weekends its been jam packed and she still been handling her business! read more

The staff was nice, but that was the only positive. I ordered chicken and grits with a side of sausage. The chicken was very dry, flavorless and not crispy. The spicy sausage was overcooked and shriveled. The grits were watery. The restaurant was freezing cold. I got there when they first opened. I was the only person there, so they weren't in a rush and had plenty of time to prepare the food. read more

Very rude people. We ordered a to good to go order set at 1:50 pm and the staff refused to give us the order. "Sorry, we have to feed our customers. Come back when we're closed." If that was the case, then why on earth did the restaurant have that time slot reserved? I will never buy anything from this place. read more

Wasn't tasty at all.. hair was in my food I really was looking forward to try the business I was disappointed

The first thing I was told was there was no chicken or no fish. I was the only one that was told that I should've left then but I didn't. My order was completely wrong. I ordered a sandwich on white bread, turkey bacon no egg. I got a sandwich on rye bread with egg and pork bacon we were sitting in. He packed our bag to go stapled it shut and handed it to us. We waited over an hour for my order to be wrong. I was assessing the space because I wanted to bring my work colleagues there they always ask me where's a good place to eat. I've sent so many people there since the day they open their doors I won't be back. read more

Staff is unprofessional. Lady behind the counter doesn't have her hair up ... in a restaurant!! Food took a hour. I wasted my Saturday morning. Staff member was making jokes saying "We gotta get Jessica out of here she claims she's been here for years." I don't find that the slightest bit okay in a restaurant setting. Food is all grease. Not worth it ! read more

It's so great to find a nice place to have breakfast nearby. My wife and I went and were pleasantly surprised. I had fish and grits and my wife had shrimp and grits, which we only ate half of in the restaurant and ate the rest for the next two days. We will be returning for other delicious things on their menu. read more

Poor customer service. Wrong hours online. Told to come back in an hour, we did. The got hit with stank attitude and told they're still not open when coming back like told to. Maybe whenever they get their stuff together we'll try it, but probably not. read more

The food was amazing! I got the Stay Focused (French toast, Turkey sausage, egg and cheese) sandwich. The only thing I didn't like was the syrup drizzled all on the outside of the bread. Next time I'll ask for syrup on the side. I prefer the syrup in between the bread. That won't stop me from coming back. There more for me to try there. I want to try the smoothies too. read more

The food was good & it's a nice place, but I was picking up an order for my mother and her order was incorrect. I was disappointed to be told that I needed to apologize to the cashier because my mother had expressed frustration over the phone. When I tried to explain that it wasn't me who was yelling, I was completely ignored. That experience left a bad impression. read more

Nice location. Nice size portions. People great! Weekends is usually a wait but worrh it!

Horrible!! I went there with my daughter and wife we just got back from Atlanta Georgia, and the owner ( tanisha) was super disrespectful. When we started ordering she had an additude and was shaking her head we ignored it at first, once we received the food, she didn't say enjoy or anything. And finally after 20 minutes into us eating she comes out from the back and says excuse me but can you guys hurry up because I close in an hour, we just paid for our food and left . Please do urself a favor don't eat here its shameful these are the types of black owned businesses that give us a bad name!! read more

Very clean, great friendly service. The food is very well seasoned. I got the French toast with 2 eggs and turkey bacon and peach cobbler banana pudding. read more

I decided to give this place a third try the second time I was there I waited over 45 minutes for easy to make breakfast stuff like French toast and eggs. I was just there last week and I decided to get a receipt upon looking at this receipt I realize that the 1399 mill that included 2 eggs I was also charged and additional egg surcharge which was a dollar per egg that is Unreal. To add a second slap in the face they also charged me a service charge I guess that was for the woman pushing the buttons on a cash register because she clearly told me they did not have a person to seat people. Out of my 1399 special and the person who I was with their meal also was with 2 eggs . The total amount I paid was $4 for The egg surcharge I feel like I was double billed or I overpaid for the price of eggs next time I will buy a whole carton of eggs for $5 and just make my own breakfast. read more

Only people in the restaurant and waited a hour for a single order of scrambled eggs and pancakes. When the order came out we got turkey bacon and french toast which was completely not what we ordered. Service was inexplicably slow and poor. read more
