This cool little spot is right next door to Martha Greens Dough'Lectibles, so we decided to give it a try. It is a breakfast/lunch spot so just know that they close at 2:30. I opted for breakfast while the mister decided he wanted lunch. Ham Eggs Benedict with home fries for me and a turkey sandwich with onion rings for him. Home fries were really good and so were the onion rings. Eggs Benedict was alright, and the turkey sandwich was decent. Our server was friendly and seemed to know quite a few patrons . The ambiance was my favorite thing. It's quaint and homey. I will definitely come back because I want to try the French toast. read more

Great service and great food! The bakery has an excellent selection of sweets, and the prices are very fair for the quality you receive. Located in the heart of Old Town Redlands, the atmosphere is charming and traditional, with beautiful brick-lined surroundings and colorful flowers that make the experience even more enjoyable. What stood out most today was the sense of community and kindness. I especially want to thank our veterans and active military members for their service and sacrifice. There was a lot of good karma and positive energy around today, and it made the visit feel even more special. If you're looking for delicious food, tasty bakery treats, reasonable prices, and a welcoming atmosphere, this is definitely a place worth visiting! read more

Diane and I returned here for lunch after a doctor's appointment. And this time I followed through to try a Southwest Meat Lover's Skillet with Home Fries, ham, sausage, cheese and eggs. It was both tasty and filling, and I washed everything down with a perfectly ripe slice of orange in my Iced Tea. Buttered Sourdough Toast with homemade Apricot Jelly enhanced the repast. Diane ordered Cinnamon French Toast with bacon and crispy Hash Browns, and especially liked the Hash Browns. Portions were large, and service responsive. read more

I came here for the bakery. Everything looked so good, I couldn't decide. I ended up purchasing 2 large cookies to go. I ordered (1) S'mores cookie and (1) Twix cookie. The s'mores cookie was my favorite. It was so moist and all the flavors together tasted like a s'mores treat. Each cookie costed $3.75. If I'm ever in the area, I will stop by again! read more

The Eating Room - Taken 2/12/2026 - American Near Me - Redlands, California

If this business still shows as unclaimed and sitting at three stars, I'm honestly surprised. While service can occasionally slow down during peak hours, my overall experience with the food has been consistently enjoyable. They offer some unique menu items you won't find everywhere--like the sinful French toast--which makes it stand out from the typical breakfast options. The location is another plus. It's tucked close to downtown Redlands, so it's easy to take a nice walk and explore local shops after your meal. I'd definitely recommend this spot to friends and family, especially if other popular breakfast places in the area are packed. It's a reliable choice with some fun twists on the usual breakfast fare. read more

Always great food and service!! I could eat the walnut-currant bread all day!! Celebrating my sister's birthday with brunch- we all loved it!! read more

Waited to be seated for 30 min when told it would be 20 ok not a big deal but my husband had to ask them about our table - then after being asked they wanted to seat us in a small table near the entrance where we would be bumping elbows with others passing by- we asked to be seated in a booth and ok they were accommodating but with a bit of an attitude. When the waitress came by asking for our beverage orders I could tell she was already annoyed, we get it you're busy, but nonetheless you work in customer service. We ordered our food and honestly the food was not what I expected . I ordered the ham eggs Benedict and it fell short of what an eggs Benedict should be . The English muffin was soaked in bland hollandaise Sauce, the ham was a steak ham thick and no tasted the potatoes were probably the only good thing on this plate. My husband ordered a meat lovers skillet which was also pretty bland with a Side of toast- now I'm really trying to give this place the benefit of the doubt but when I tell you this toast was burnt- I couldn't believe it, I'm not sure if this is all the time or if the waitress was upset, but serving burnt toast, like you can't just mess that up- any who I was really disappointed with this place. Service and food. read more

The Eating Room - Burnt toast - American Near Me - Redlands, California

My fave breakfast/brunch place to go to. Have been here many many times and it's truly the coziest spot. Service is as excellent as the food. Love the ambiance and truly a hallmark of what makes Redlands such a hidden gem! read more

I rarely leave negative reviews but the experience was disappointing from start to finish. The woman at the register was rude and made us feel unwelcome from the moment we arrived. The food portions were surprisingly small for the price, making the meal feel over priced. On top of that, we felt rushed throughout out the visit. Before we had even finished eating, staff came by asking if we were done, which made it difficult to relax and enjoy our meal. Customer service is a big part of the dining experience and unfortunately it fell short here. The one exception was the gentleman who brought us our drinks. He was friendly, courteous, and the only one who made us feel like a valued customer. The best part of the morning was the company that I was with. I hope management (Martha Green) takes customer feedback back seriously and makes improvements to both service and overall guest experience. read more

Arrived with reservations for party of 11 for brunch. We we're quickly sat, with quick drink and meal orders. But then it took well over an hour for our food to come out with only pieces of meals at first. The waitress seemed overloaded and did not remember who remembered which plate. Some of the food had to be remade because it was cold by the time the rest of the food came out. It seemed like a busy day with a lot of larger groups. read more

Made it to The Eating Room just in time (they stop seating in the restaurant at 2:30 pm). It was a weekday near closing so there was a lot of space, and we were able to get a booth. Our friendly and attentive server was Amber. We got the corned beef hash and Frisco burger. They were so good! Potato wedges were super crispy. Service was great, too. While waiting we got some cookies in the attached bakery. The Swedish Oatmeal is my fave. Also got a Dubai chocolate chip and an oatmeal raisin. Pro tip: if the display shelf is empty, ask if they have some in the back. The bakery servers are also really friendly and helpful. read more

My husband and I went in mid afternoon just to have a dessert, the place was pretty empty but it took awhile for someone to come to take our order. It's very strange that you're not greeted, you seat yourself, menus and silverware on the table, kinda do-it-yourself hospitality?! We ordered carrot cake and coffee, the girl went to the bakery and brought back a cold carrot cake wrapped in plastic wrap. We had to unwrap it, cut it and serve it ourself. I thought that was weird. Upon leaving we noticed the Health Dept card in the window with a C rating!! Looked it up and this place has many serious violations with the warning that food borne illness is possible. WONT BE BACK!! So sad because it really looks like the place is going downhill, used to be great. read more

We were just passing through Redlands and googled places to eat. We found this little gem. Great atmosphere, great service and great food. They have a cute little bread and pastry store connected to it. We bought some homemade banana nut bread and sourdough bread with a olive spread. Wow delicious. We ate at the restaurant I got the eggs Benedict and it was the BEST I have ever had. My dad got the Rueben Sandwich and he loved it. My husband got the sinful bread pudding and WOW amazing. I would highly recommend this cute little place. We will definitely be back when we head down south again. read more

I have visited this restaurant many times it's mediocre.Today I came in.They are serving all the food on plastic.Now plates and cuts.So I thought that was a little weird.I asked the manager about it, which I got a very nasty attitude.When I asked then I asked for a cup of coffee to go.And you think that I had asked her to jump off a cliff. She brought the smallest cup.I don't even know what they brings such a small cup. I highly recommend you go somewhere else.The staff years pretty rude, including the manager who was in charge read more

This is our favorite place!! The food is just good southern comfort menu foods. And, everything is always cooked nicely!! Never had a bad meal yet... out of approx 20! The service is friendly, and timely... Ally, Chelsa, Katie, Lauren, Mark and more. And omg that bakery!! read more

Unique environment. Has a sit down dining area and a bakery. Friendly staff. Clean environment. Good food.

I'll preface this by saying I work in healthcare and know how the service industry works so I come from a place of fuuullll understanding of how this works. I'd say I do not come from a space of entitlement at all. Service was horrible from the start. I entered to check in and was passed by sooo many workers. It was busy so I tried to understand. Here I am standing for a while with so many workers who saw me, looked at me, but did not pay mind to at least acknowledge my presence and say hey we'll be with you in a minute. I checked in and I guess it's true when people call out "the gen z stare". The host walked quickly behind the counter with a blank stare and asked "how many ". Good morning to you as well! I definitely did not want to spend my time eating at a place with bad vibes. Never coming back to this place again. I'd rather support a small business food spot with people who are actually willing to invest in the Redlands community. Went to hate burger instead and the worker there was a delight. read more

Honestly was kind of expecting more given that the eating room decor and furniture are absolutely gorgeous. I seem to remember that the food was a little more special than it used to be. I confess I had not visited in many years. They have a killer bakery... read more

We've been coming here for years and have always loved the bakery. I've lived in Redlands my entire life and love supporting the local businesses. We decided to come for a late breakfast, which I had done recently and was greatly disappointed so I thought I'd give it another chance. This place used to be so much better and we'd eat here pretty often. But the last few visits have been horrible. It was busy so we waited about 20 min for a table which was understandable. After being seated we ordered our drinks but then didn't see a server for what seemed like 20 minutes. After our food order was taken, my coffee was only offered to be refilled once, and it took over AN HOUR for our food to be brought to the table. When it arrived it was cold and none of us wanted to eat anymore due to sitting there for an hour basically being ignored. Our server Allison seemed nice but was not attentive at all and barely came to check on us. I understand it can get busy in restaurants, but they seemed to have a lot of staff so I'm not sure why we waited over an hour for cold food. We were there for about 2 hours for a disappointing meal and frustrated kids. read more

I joined my mother and stepdad for a lunch here on 10/27 for the first time. They are regular customers here so I expected the service to be quite warm and hospitable. From the moment we entered we were told by the hostess (who was wearing try that in a small town tee shirt) to take any table with a menu. We asked if we could wait for a booth that needed to be cleared she seemed visibly annoyed and told to us to wait in the hallway which we did. We went to the bakery and ended up buying a cookie. By the time we were done we saw the table had been cleaned. We headed to the table and the same girl yelled at us from the cash register to stop because there were no menus on the table yet and we had to wait until there were menus on the table and for us to go back to the hallway to wait. She had a major attitude which instantly made me feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome. I was in disbelief and my mom said she wasn't usually like that. Finally we saw them put menus down on the table and I asked her if it was ok if we sat down now and she said yes with a huge attitude and just stared at me. I was wondering what I had done to offend her? The actual server was so nice and kind and took care of us. She obviously knew my parents and treated us like regulars. The food was great and there were a lot of great vegan options which I greatly appreciated. This is the only reason the review is getting more than 1 star. My mom had surprised me with a small vegan chocolate cake as an early birthday present. We were very excited to eat the cake when we got home. When we finally cut into the cake it was filled with so much buttercream that it was unstable and hard to cut. The cake was in no way shape or form chocolate. It was very clearly a yellow cake it was supposed to be chocolate with raspberry and neither of those flavors were there. It was a yellow cake with buttercream frosting. This cake was $40 for 5 slices. I told my mom to call the bakery and let them know that they had messed up. When she did she was gaslighted and told that was "their" chocolate cake, there was absolutely no offer to correct the situation and the bakery manager was quite defensive. There was no chocolate anywhere in this cake. I was so disappointed start to finish on how we were treated especially how often and loyal my mom and stepdad are with eating here. I was also disappointed how much we paid for this experience between lunch and the cake well over $100. I can safely say I will never return to this restaurant or recommend it. Lastly how they treated my mom was inexcusable and she deserves either a full refund for that cake or an offer to remake it correctly. read more

My friend and I checked in with the cashier (as the sign said to do), who pointed out a table that was empty where we could sit, were greeted by the blonde waitress who returned several minutes later to take our orders. While she was visible in the restaurant the whole time we were there, in an hour and a half, the waitress NEVER returned to our table. The food took around 35 minutes to arrive (it was delivered by someone else) and after another hour, I had to get up, go to the cashier and ASK for a take-out box AND the check. Never going there again. And by-the-way, I believe it was the owner, in her green apron, sitting at the next table. read more

I really wanted to like this place I ordered the breakfast combo, eggs bacon and pancake. $17, it came out cold. Biscuits and gravy was really good. The biscuit literally melted in your mouth. Service was just OK, we didn't have a warm welcome, felt very sterile and forced. The ambiance and wooden chair's were uncomfortable. Go to Ihop instead read more

Came to Martha greens eating room for the first time and I had the worst experience ever with the most horrific service. Was sat down to a table with No utensils for over 30 min and the food took over 1 hr to come to our table our server has had the worst attitude I will never come back to this establishment read more

They have a C rating. That C is also for the lack of C-easoning. And long wait times. How is a place like this still going in 2026?

I've been coming here for over a decade so, overall I would recommend this and will continue to eat here. The food is always good and the menu has a lot of variety. I appreciate that they serve breakfast the entire time they're open. We usually have either great service or just okay. This last time our server really didn't check on us often, even though she went to tables around us. Other servers did offer refills every time they passed us however. Parking can be tight on the street, but the structure across the way is always a great option. They've remodeled the decor within the last few years, and they've definitely packed in more tables to accommodate the busy times. Always stop at the bakery on your way out. read more

We used to love this place! We dont know what happened!!??!! All the cute decore is gone.. The giant papermache tree gone, even the restrooms that had Chicks and Cocks painted on the doors are now all gone.. We came for the ambiance.. They used to have cool specialties lie the summer strawberry salad that was so beautifully arranged with sliced strawberries around the rim of the plate.. Now you get cheap cubed apples and cranberries, mixed together & thrown in a bowl.. Even cakes that were days old with Cracked frosting in the case that looked horrifying... The whole time I sat there at this disgusting round table that was splintered cracked and had big gouges in the wood, I felt a little sick.. My heart just ached and I felt so sad and I will not be back.. We had to chase down other workers besides our waitress just to get steak sauce! The whole thing was just bad and it is not the same place it used to be : ( read more

A slow food venue with kitschy ambiance. If you like waiting to be seated then sitting and waiting for your order to be taken, then it's the place for you! Diner food is ok, but if you want better quality and service, try Caprice around the corner. read more

I am shocked at the 1 and 2 star reviews, we have been there at least 4 times now, and have not had bad service or bad food. The staff is very attentive. It's a staple when we travel down the 38, hopefully caltran will get the road open so we can get back there read more

........First we stopped by the bakery......we picked up a couple of chocolate macaroons, some peanut butter cookies and a new flavor for US peanut butter and jelly ..... The young lady that took care of us, was very pleasant, she made eye contact and made us feel welcome. .....She engaged us in conversation about our day And asked if we put our name in for lunch... Im sorry I can't remember her name.....All the cookies were Delicious!!! Then they called us for lunch but we decided to share a breakfast quesadilla it was wonderful.... ..It was a tomato and herb tortilla with fluffy scrambled eggs and cheese and we added avocado.......So good! The waitress and staff did an excellent job of taking care of us and everyone around us ....... great service and food! read more

Today was my first visit. Chelsa was our server. It was my mother and myself. This was a really terrible experience... the service was awful, our drinks sat empty, we did not feel like we were valued as customers. The clam chowder tasted burnt, so did not get eaten. The server didn't ask how our food was, we had to flag a different server down to get tea. Some things are worth doing just a bit better. read more

I give this a 5 for unique and rustic ambience as it's a cool set up and place for such a long-standing restaurant. The food was ok at best, comparable to a local Denny's or IHOP. I had the eggs, sausage and waffles. Service wasn't good. There was a mistake in the order but no apology for the server. We didn't have the smiliest server. The cashier asked how everything was and I said "okay" and she was not pleased nor did she follow up on that. The place was packed so I'm sure there's some greatness in there that I hadn't experienced on this particular visit. Nevertheless I'd rather eat sugarless hospital jello than to ever come back here again. read more

Love your little diner but my friend bought a cake for a wedding one time And they said it was not very good Js

I have been enjoying lunches at the Eating Room for years. The food is very good, lots of choices for breakfast and lunch. Is such a pretty setting inside. It can get crowded so don't surprise if you have to wait a little while, it's worth the wait. They also have amazing bakery with everything you can imagine, all made in their kitchen. Great location, right in the downtown area. read more

I would give the $16 burger I ate 4 stars. It had good flavor and the ambiance was fun. The service, however, was 2 stars. We waited a long time to be seated, and once we were seated, the waitress took another 10 minutes to greet our table. When she finally greeted us, it was with a snarky attitude. She didn't even come back at the end of the meal to ask, *"How was everything?"* The kitchen staff brought some of our food, but when we flagged down a different waitress because ours was nowhere to be found, she snapped at us and acted like we'd asked for her firstborn child. When we went to pay, we noticed they had already added the gratuity to the bill. A gratuity is supposed to be a thank-you for good service, not an automatic addition. Maybe that's why the service was so terrible--our waitress didn't have to work for her tip. read more

Not going back, out of principle. My wife and I went with some friends, an older couple. They ordered coffee. 2 coffee drinks with refills and the charge was $17.00 for the coffee! Mind you, the servers come by frequently offering to top off the coffee. No mention of their intent to charge you full price for topping off the coffee. I was shocked to find out later how they were price gouging. Maybe I am just getting old, but most places I have ever been to never charged for refills. Their menu does not specify how they treat refills, so be warned. I emailed them later to question if the charge was accurate, no response. Hope this review helps the next person. read more

Good food, horrible service! Clearly, this business's namesake doesn't care about how her business is run. Maybe she isn't alive anymore. Who knows. What I will say is that good food should never justify astonishingly bad customer service. I have been patronizing Martha Green's for more than 20 years and can honestly say that, in the roughly half a dozen times I dined there, that I never encountered timely and polite customer service. I went there for the last time about a week ago with a longtime friend I was reuniting with. I mistakenly had the faith to believe things there may have changed, but nope! We had to wait about 20-25 minutes to get our order taken and about 40-45 minutes thereafter to get our food. Our waitress never refilled my coffee and operated like an automaton. I can't even recall a time where a waitress or host (do they even have one?) provided a friendly greeting when I walked into the place. The words "too busy" should not be in the vocabulary of a successful restaurant. Busy is a blessing, and proper adjustments should be made if that is the case to ensure quality service, along with quality food. If one part of the machine is missing, the machine breaks down, sooner or later. Clearly the owner doesn't even look at Yelp or other review sites to gauge customer satisfaction, for if she did she would do something about it. If she has, and has seen the plethora of negative reviews, most pertaining to poor service, and chose not to do anything about it, then she clearly doesn't care. Either way, I am done with this place. Redlands Public Market and the many new and great restaurants and bistros that have opened in Redlands and Yucaipa in recent years will be getting my business from now on. Drop Martha Green's Eating Room, but drop by its bakery once in awhile, as that still may be worth the visit. But avoid the dry cakes, as they are overrated, imho. But the cookies and brownies are awesome. And you're likely to at least get a "Hello!" and a "Thank you!" there. Surprisingly I have never had bad service at the bakery. Gratitude tends to go a long way. There, a positive note to end. read more

A friend had been wanting to bring me here for a while; we finally had the opportunity today. We walked in through the bakery entrance and decided we would purchase some treats after breakfast. The whole place looks tired and dingy and those string lights don't add anything to the ambience. Our waitress took our order and then disappeared until she brought out the food about 20-25 minutes later. We asked for a few more napkins, because apparently you only get one thin paper napkin per person when seated. She disappeared again and never returned with the napkins; after MANY minutes, my friend had to get up, flag down another wait person to bring the napkins and more coffee. The food was mediocre and they definitely need to have more than 3 people working the tables for the amount of customers that were there. I really don't get the appeal of the restaurant for my friend or anyone else but, I won't be returning. I hope the baked goods that we purchased aren't as bad as the breakfast experience. One and DONE! read more
