Came in on a Saturday for brunch. Had the Breakfast Board...wow! Everything cooked perfectly. More protein than my wife and I could finish. Scrambled eggs were perfect...my wife normally hates scrambled eggs but these she ate way more than 1/2 of the portion. French toast fabulous. Avocado toast way too big lol. My new top choice for breakfast in No. County read more

Food is incredibly fresh, their french toast is amazing. It tastes like vanilla with no hint of eggs. The wait time is a bit long, around 20 minutes. read more

Good food, varied menu--Great for Breakfast OR Lunch. Everyone should fine something that strikes their fancy on the surprisingly thorough menu--a lot of choices for a small restaurant. The restaurant is somewhat small and busy at times, so be prepared to wait a few minutes. Service was a tiny bit spotty the morning we visited, but every table was filled, so it is understandable. The prices were a bit high, but I don't mind paying more for quality food. All of the menu items are home-made, made on-site. read more

First time customer and this place has amazing customer service and delicious food. I am a disabled veteran with a service dog and they made me feel at home. The bacon was hot and crispy and the pancake was fluffy with a delicious vanilla flavor. I will definitely be back and will bring my family. read more

First time to try this place and it did not disappoint. Even with Covid19 they still managed great service and excellent food. They have 7-8 tables outside in a shaded area and they are consistently wiping down surfaces., cleaning menus , credit card machine, tables. They were on top of this. The eggs Benedict were prepared perfectly. We also had the breakfast burrito which was quite hearty. The staff is very friendly and this is a great local gem. read more

My omelette was very oily, which isn't what you necessarily want. I can see they were going for a very trendy place but the food was subpar, and I feel like I've been to cheaper less trendy breakfast spots with better food. read more

We spent $50 on breakfast delivery and the food was awful. We threw it out after only a couple of bites. I'm not sure how hard it is for them to make pancakes, toast and omelettes but they should not be listed by Yelp as the #2 place for brunch in Oceanside. It shouldn't even be on the list! read more

Only discovered this place because I had a bit of time to wait for food and wanted to try this new breakfast place near me. Ordered a Mexican omlet which had plenty of chorizo and was quite good. Not able to eat inside because of the quarintine but it was a good portion even if I thought the price was a little high. Coffee was good too. read more

I stopped here for brunch very hungry and ordered the country benedict, which says on the menu is topped with crispy bacon and comes with two sides. After opening my food in the car I notice there is no bacon at all, anywhere. I didn't want to be annoying so I wasn't going to say anything or go back in. After a few bites of average food, I find everyone's worst nightmare, a hair that looks like a pube just sitting in my food. Almost threw up in my mouth. So I go in and ask to speak to the manager, the server returns telling me "no you can't speak to him but he'll refund you or you can order something else." Then a minute later the manager walks out from the back and brushes past me saying "they're working on it". I got a refund obviously, but was disappointed in the food, service and the lack of reception of criticism. Should've gone to McDonald's, tasted about the same. read more

The chilakiles were great 10/10 recommended. It brings a new twist to the classic recipe with the ham and steak combination, not to mention the salsa verde will make your tastebuds tingle (in a good way). The side fruit cup refreshingly balances out the whole dish. read more

I had a french toast breakfast, it was delicious. The service was great, very friendly. I will definitely be returning.

Ordered the egg rancheros. Disappointed with size of breakfast for the price point. Came with 2 side options. The fruit cup was size of dipping sauce with few pieces of pineapple and grapes. Waitress was inattentive and didn't provide silverware or napkins. She had no interest in making sure we were having good experience. We had to ask bus boy to provide the essentials to eat our breakfast. Definitely won't be back, I would advise to skip on this place. read more

Great service and great food! The breakfast board was the perfect and at to taste different things! read more

The food was amazing. The service was great until it was as time to pay they did not honor the Yelp coupons and gave a hard time about splitting the bills. After we came because of Yelp. I honestly don't know if we will come back. Food was good but the bait and switch left a bad taste. We are here for a soccer tournament for 6 days easy to say they lost a good amount of business as this is right by the hotel and fields read more

Wish I could give them zero stars. Each plate was covered in oil. I called asked for a refund and they refused to refund me. Don't waste ur time trying this place they don't care about their customers or the quality of their food. read more

I would give this place 4.5/5 if I could. They got very busy after we were seated, so breakfast on a Saturday morning took longer than we wanted, but it was fine. I ordered the Fab spicy melt, which wasn't too spicy, a bit oily, but delicious and a generous serving size. My husband enjoyed his salmon eggs bennie, and my son made his own omelet. Plenty of good coffee being offered, too. There were many sweet options on the menu, so maybe that will be next time. The place itself is pleasant, spacious and has decent natural light. There is also outdoor seating, but I did not see cafe heaters for those crisp mornings. Overall a good spot to pop in for a solid breakfast/brunch. read more

Could've made better food at home. Ate half the meal since I was so hungry but couldn't finish it since it was so bland( I always finish). Had high hopes for this place but was let down big time. Just go to iHop. read more

I Went for breakfast for the first time. First, please stop playing loud music. I am here to eat and talk to my fellow diners the music is loud and interferes with talking to each other. Secondly, closer your front door and put an OPEN sign on it. Flies were on our food and buzzing our heads cons. A real turn off!! I won't be back. read more

We love supporting our Oceanside locals. We came to The Breakfast Mug cause its new in the area. The food is delicious, fresh and served with a smile. The portions are decent, you will get full. Come and check out this great breakfast and lunch restaurant. read more

I came here last Sunday to try this place for the 1st time. We were told the wait would be about 25-30min but it was actually an hour. Our waitress seemed decent and things were ok things but went downhill quickly. We were seated outside close by a larger party. I'm confused why they were yelling and playing games why they were yelling like they were at a bar during breakfast. Back to the waitress- She said they can make any scramble from an omelette. So I got that with pancakes asking for extra butter/Syrup. This girl comes back with the omelette and says "oops they made a mistake" and continued to give me the omelette I didn't ask for. I asked her nicely to please correct my order because I didn't want it. We had to ask for butter and syrup several times from our server. It was such a nightmare she had an attitude because she messed up. She never came back and checked on us, she spoke to and checked on every table around us. Worst customer service. Don't get me started on the home fries that weren't cooked. I don't even know how they had the nerve to send out potatoes that aren't even cooked. Food was so nasty. When I got up to find the waitress to get out check she said "my manager took care of it have a nice day" with an attitude. We'll never go back and never recommend to anyone. read more

I love this place! I have only had it a couple times since it's a bit of a drive for me, but the eggs benedict here is amazing! The also have really good Mexican hot chocolate! Definitely can't wait to try more of their menu. read more

We were waiting for almost 10 minutes to be seated no one acknowledged us nor made an attempt to even talk to us about wait time. We have been here before and it is always the same story, terrible service. read more

This is my new go-to breakfast/brunch/lunch destination and I can't say enough good things about it (almost hate to because I'd like the keep this little gem all to myself but, hey, they really deserve the kudos). I LOVE going out for a really good, fresh, well cooked breakfast and this place delivers in spades. The menu has some imagination and class, the ingredients are top notch, and beautifully cooked. Seriously, I had the best vegetable omelette that I have ever eaten here - I didn't know vegetables could taste like that. The fruit bowl? Full of ripe mango slices, sweet blackberries and blueberries. The selection changes with the season, I'm sure, but still...they're choosing to serve the good stuff. The cherry on top is the staff. They are on the top of their game and make eating there a real delight. read more

Good food and service. Will return. Wife loved the huevos rancheros. Highly recommend!

Very cold environment and no welcoming feeling. Breakfast potatoes weren't cooked and barely had spent any time in a pan. Server never came to check if everything ok. When I did ask for water because the Mexican Eggs were beyond spicy (which I let her know) no show of concern or wanting to make me, the customer, satisfied. And I am normally a very low maintenance customer having been a server myself many years ago. Never offered a refill on my coffee. Overall experience: very disappointed. I won't go back. read more

First time eating here we both ordered breakfast, service was excellent, food was fresh so overall great experience

Came here earlier this morning and let me say, I might have just found a new place to come to. Fantastic service, and good food, our server was attentive to our needs and constantly came by to refill our coffees and check up on us. Will come back here again. read more
