2-Egg Breakfast with home fries and bacon.
Josh L.

An all-time Monterey favorite for breakfast, I had their 2-egg special with home fries and bacon. the staff are always pleasant and know all the regulars. We put our name down on the list and didn't have to wait long to get seated. If you are in the mood for a great breakfast, the Breakfast Club is a must go-to! Good for large groups or singles at the bar.

Waitress greeted us right away and they have coffee outside while you wait! We didn't have to wait long, even with the place being packed! Server was on us right away and had menus at our table! Servers came by a couple of times to check to see if we were ready to order! SO many great options! The biscuits and spicy gravy was off the hook! I actually had it on the side of my steak and eggs! I was TOTALLY happy with just the biscuits and gravy! But everything was great! Coffee was strong and the place was really nice! Had that old school diner charm! All of the servers were attentive and friendly and everyone had a smile! They LOOKED like they wanted to be there, and they all hustled! Great spot for breakfast if you're in the area! We'll be back!

All searches for a breakfast/brunch place led us here. We were staying in Monterey, and when looking for recommendations this place kept popping up. There's ample parking in the plaza, so it should not be a concern. We went on a weekday morning, so it wasn't crowded but the looking at how at the familiarity between the staff and some of the customers, it seemed like a local favorite. The staff was very sweet, and place seemed very chirpy, the place reminded of a good old diner. All the staff was very sweet. We got the Quintals omelette, and it was my first time trying refried beans in an omelette and it was definitely something we'd try again. We also got French toast with fresh fruits and it was delicious too.

18.00+ tax/tip?  Really...  Yeah, I'm good.  Rather eat at Denny's  For that price

$18 plus tax and tip This will cost you maybe $5.89 To make groceries And cook it at your house This is why restaurants are going out of business I won't go there again

Stop by for breakfast on our way to Monterey. We decided to stop here instead of one in Morgan Hill as we wanted to be closer to our destination. We pick Breakfast club as we thought the omelet would be same as other location. Place was busy for a Wednesday. GF got the veggie omelet added ham and cheese and I got ribeye steak as I been craving steak and eggs. Omelet we like the stuff mix in with the egg then fried. Not just fold it all in. Might as well had the veggies on the side. It was ok but disappointed as we were expecting it to be like the other location. I got the steak as I asked server if it was good and she said super good and huge So was excited only to be very disappointed. I asked for medium and it was over cook probably because it was super thin. My pancake did make up for it. Went for pancake in stead of toast. Also first cup of coffee was not hot.

Tuna Melt and Chicken and Waffles
Andy V.

This place was busy busy. We waited not too long, but got sat in a corner so our service was real slow. Took forever to even ask for napkins and silverware. The Tuna Melt was basic and the fries tasted like they came straight out of a bag from Walmarts frozen section. My son got Chicken and Waffles which wasn't bad, but the hash he got was basic and the bacon was hard as a rock. I couldn't believe they even brought it out to us like that. The pricing seems standard like other breakfast places, but is definitely not worth it for the quality that we got.

Split eggs benedict & cinnamon roll pancake
Alesia i.

We shared a smoked salmon eggs benedict & a single cinnamon roll pancake. (FYI they charge a $1 for split plates) can't go wrong w/the Breakfast Club. Thankfully we didn't have to wait long to be seated. Definitely one of my go to breakfast spots in town!

Hot tea selections
Alicia S.

Service was quite friendly. The server was accommodating to our special requests. The food was prepared as we liked it. Bacon was crispy and the omelette was a good size. The whole place was subtly decorated in 250 year patriotic theme from the carnations on the tables to the banners on the windows.

Cookie monster latte

We have been to the Breakfast Club in San Jose and Morgan Hill. This one is the OG and has been here for 36 years. Owners and staff are amazing. Food was top tier! Quality ingredients. Their selection of lattes was fabulous. Drinks are incredible! We recommend 1,0

Very yummy Pancakes with Fresh Fruit
Em C.

This place was so good and what really made it great was the staff. After waiting at another place for almost an hour in Monterey, my friends and I decided to come here instead. We signed up and waited along with a vast number of people. While we did have to wait a little more they asked if we wanted to sit outside, a lot people hesitated cause it was chilly n windy but their outside tent had heating and the wind was blocked. We joked with our server not to forgot us since we were outside, and she reassured us that they wouldn't. And they deliver. Staff were incredibly attentive, always checking in on us, dropping coffees and drinks and handing us these large creamers (that made me laugh). Everyone of the staff that was attending other tables outside always checked in. They were wonderful :) As for the food, it's legit. Out of all the food I had that weekend it was hands down the best. And the prices were perfect after being in Monterey and Carmel. My friends n I split a pancake that was hella good on its own with no syrup, topped with berries. I got a chile verde omelet that just hit right. Legit the best I've had as well. Pork was tender and the verde sauce was delish. I would def drive down here just to eat here again.

Inside
Harold S.

I thought this was a pretty traditional breakfast type place. They have all the usual offerings for breakfast and the setting is clean and comfortable inside. Service was also good. I thought the prices were a little high, but not terribly so. I ordered the Traditional French Toast which goes for $13.95. They gave me three large slices of french toast. Most other places typically cut the slices in half and give you six pieces, but honestly that's just to make you think you are getting a larger serving. The french toast was good and I have no complaints.

Stopped by The Breakfast Club while visiting Monterey Bay and loved it. The vibe was fun and laid-back, and the service was friendly from the start. I had a mimosa and an omelet, and both hit the spot. The omelet was fresh, cooked well, and had plenty of filling. The mimosa was crisp and just the right start to a relaxing brunch. One of my favorite little touches was the cute coffee cups with the café's name on them which was such a fun detail that made it feel special. Overall, this is a great place for breakfast or brunch if you're in the area. Good food, good drinks, and a nice way to start the day.

Seaside Joe's Scramble
Michelle C.

One of my favorite places to go! There are a lot of choices. Inside has a lot of tables, we went on a sunday morning and were seated quickly. The staff were super nice! Definitely a place that can get loud, when we went, it was pretty low key :)

We booked through the hotel group department and they were able to offer us a really great rate and some additional perks like complimentary parking. It did take me a few times of reaching out before I was able to successfully connect with someone from the group department however once I was able to make contact they followed through pretty quickly. We had a few hiccups upon arrival with distribution of our guest bags and check in but otherwise everything went over smoothly, the guests really enjoyed the property and loved the experience of roasting s'mores. The breakfast buffet is really great. The rooms are a little dated but still comfortable and clean. We used a suite for the meeting space and it worked perfectly. The staff was super accommodating by bringing us a microwave and ensuring we had extra chairs. One thing is that the lighting in the suite is very low so for meetings I would recommend bringing additional light sources so that the room is conducive to a daytime meeting. Thank you to the staff for an overall positive experience and I would recommend this location for others looking to do a retreat or 2-day meeting with someone caveats.

Based on previous yelp photos I decided to try the Cappuccino and I am glad I did. Made with LavAzza coffee I felt like I was in Italy again. My husband and I decided to share the combo plate. Scrambled eggs, potatoes, chicken sausage and a homemade biscuit. The salsa that it comes with is amazing so don't skip it. The portion was large and plenty for two people. The food was fresh, and flavorful. While the food was great, I think what makes this an amazing spot is the team. Each person was attentive, very friendly and made sure everyone had what they needed. I think we discovered a new spot and plan to be back. Oh and I love that they have a sign out front about providing a sandwich even if you can't afford one.

The meat was in cubes with veggies & a white sauce. Given that information, it had no flavor. The sauce was watery & barely added anything to the dish. Similarly, the chicken pot pie was incredibly creamy with not enough seasoning to balance it out. -Service/Staff: Despite being sat by the entryway, staff barely checked in on us to see if we needed anything. On multiple occasions, they checked on other groups around us, but not us. This was slightly upsetting as we felt invisible. -Overall: This place was just average. Nothing was particularly stand out about the food & the staff wasn't attentive during our visit. We were hopeful as it had great reviews.
