The service was super friendly and nice. Our server, Laura was so sweet, friendly, and efficient. I ordered a bit off the menu (I'm high maintenance) and everything came out perfectly and was delicious. The coffee was great, the prices reasonable, and everything was quick. I sampled my partner's bacon and pancakes. Oh my goodness, they were so flavorful! It doesn't look like much on the outside of the restaurant but so worth the stop. read more

Extremely disappointed. I have come here with my husband on many occasions, planned my wedding here! I always get California Eggs Benedict. Today it was served with curdled hollandaise sauce!!!! Flipping disgusting!!! I asked the waitress to add Canadian Bacon, she says they can't do that!! Seriously why not??? My daughter was served egg substitute in stead of real eggs. The kitchen here is suffering and definitely needs to be restaffed. I wouldn't come back if they paid me to. Which is terrible because I crave my favorite dish here all the time. read more

I ordered a three egg omelette. It looked more like a 1 1/2 egg omelette. Only two choices of cheese I also ordered to go the cinnamon poppers I'm including a picture. Very small portion. Not very good read more

Was stopping in town from Lubbock to meet my boyfriend halfway and found this brunch spot. Overall it was really good. Their pancakes get a little pricey, but it's worth it! I ordered regular buttermilk and added chocolate chips to combat price. I currently have a pancake ranking going, and this place secured spot #3 out of 7. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars were because the eggs were okay. Good service for stopping in so close to closing. read more

first timer here in Abilene, and it wasn't what Yelp made it seem. The service was slow, and the manager did not once check on us due to the kitchen messing up our order twice in the back. Not even a curiosity discount, we will not be coming back again. I was very disappointed. read more

I agree with the average of three stars because the despite the environment being 4 stars and the food being about 4 stars as well the staff is about 2 stars. The hostess was rude to me and my partner, and she told us two completely different wait times. Total wait time was 33 minutes (estimated 10-20). Not to mention she sat two party's that showed up after us prior to us "because they were bigger than us". Rude and inefficient. The primary reason I will not return. After we were seated we weren't greeted for 5 minutes. And the food wasn't enough to compensate for the crap beginning. Cracker Barrel, Abilene Taphouse, and Abi Haus all have breakfast / brunch on Sunday. Check them out! read more

I was able to get 6 monster cinimon rolls for only $9 here. I really appreciated that they left the icing off.

What a great find!! The bacon wrapped mozzarella was the perfect way to start our late morning breakfast. I had the Texas Benedict with Texas hash. Perfect! The coffee was good and the service was Eggcellent! The atmosphere is cute and cozy. Thanks, Yelp!! read more

The Flipping Egg was Flipping Eggmazing!!! I am new to the area and have been looking for places to try and I am so glad I did. The food was nice and hot and very good. I had the Normal (2eggs, sausage or bacon, pick of bread (Biscuit, toast, pancake) and hash browns. My only complaint was the hash browns were a little salty. I will be back. The staff was very friendly and made sure you had everything you needed. read more

I'm not quite sure why this place only has an average of three stars, but our experience here was great. Wait staff was good. Food was the best breakfast I've had in Abilene since I moved here a year ago. Only complaint is I saw a sign saying they would start closing on Sundays. For a town that doesn't have much already, that's pretty disappointing. I hope they change(d) their minds. read more

This is a great place to have breakfast or even Lunch. The food is great plus the staff hrre is super friendl andthe price is also not to bad. read more

Worst service I have had in Abilene! We were there for close to two hours on a Friday at 10:00am. Finally had to ask what the status of our order was and the waitress FORGOT to put our ticket in. We had to go so she gets our food fast with major attitude and gets mad that we asked for our ticket and to-go boxes. No apology given. Such a sad operation. We will not be returning! read more

If I could give -10 I would!! Went today with family here in town for my husband's funeral services. We were told the wait was 30min. After waiting 45min we discovered we were taken off the list. They tried to tell us they called for us but we had family inside and outside and no one called. They said it would be another 45 min wait!!! The lady was so rude! I told her we had been waiting and that family was here for my husband's funeral. She made an inappropriate joke about my husband passing and told us we could go sit and the people's tables and tell them to leave. Never again will I go to this restaurant- it is the WORST!! read more

We decided to eat here and bypass the chain breakfast places and hopefully get some good breakfast. It was just fair, my fried eggs were over done and my hash browns and sausage were under done. My wife and daughter said theirs were okay also. Too bad because we were really looking forward to a good breakfast. I think I might try the IHOP across the highway next time? read more

This breakfast spot was such a wonderful surprise during our cross country trip. We've had a lot of breakfasts between Los Angeles to Abilene, TX and this was our favorite! The portions are perfect Goldilocks sizes - not too big and not too small. Everything tastes so fresh and homemade and everything is cooked to perfection. The pictures don't do the food justice. Also our server, Erin, like the food was perfect; so kind, polite and helpful but not overly sugary to where you feel she's being fake. If we ever have the chance to come back we definitely will! read more

My wife already reviewed this place but I want to add my two cents. Avoid the Flippin Egg at all costs. We watched as tables who were seated around the same time as us received their food, ate, paid and left. Meanwhile, our food was nowhere to be found after approximately 45 minutes. I politely informed our waiter that we would take our check because the food had taken too long. I guess that was enough of a catalyst that a few minutes later he rushed out with our food. Whether by thoughtlessness or laziness I strongly suspect our food wasn't even started until I asked for the check, after which they hastily cooked it in an effort to appease us. However, by this point it was too little too late and I stated as such to our waiter (in kinder terms). Apparently in an effort to provide the most negative customer service experience possible, they chose to charge us for the food. You know... just in case we ever had the urge to give the place a second chance. It was such an offensive gesture that I am sure I have never experienced anything like it from a restaurant. A more accurate name for it would be "Flippin Eggs & F**kin Customers." I would rather attack my own face with a claw hammer than give them my business again. Go to Cracker Barrel; it's fast and the food is consistently good. Avoid the Flippin Egg. It is one of the worst businesses I have ever encountered. I can only assume its loyal customers are either deeply benighted or suffering from stockholm syndrome. However, just because other people patronize this dump doesn't mean they're right and it doesn't mean that you should. Save yourself a lot of frustration by going elsewhere, even if that means going to a chain. P.S. The coffee is watered down swill. They serve it with non dairy dreamer that is so unhealthy that they might as well give you cigarettes too. read more

I am just baffled at how delicious their gluten free pancakes were. I have been gluten intolerant for a while and gluten free pancakes are usually thick and dense, but the pancakes here were fluffy and just fantastic. They also have many other options for people who need to be gluten free. Eggs were cooked perfectly. Bacon was nice and crispy. I love all of it. read more

I have no idea why this place doesn't have a better score. The food is amazing and their pancakes are on point (especially their cinnamon roll ones). I'll be going there for a third time in less than a week. The service is a little slow and the only reason it didn't get 5 stars. Highly recommend, blows IHOP out of the water! ***update*** I now understand understand why it has only 2-3 stars. The service has gone so low no stars would be a good option. The coffee was luke warm and had a lot of coffee grinds. The syrup was like water and when we asked about it the waitress said most were like that. It's obvious they are watering down products to save money. When we were ready to check out it took 20 mins to get some one to get the bill and another 15 to come back. We were given the wrong bill which delayed things another 15 mins. We won't be coming back . They had a military discount which she couldn't figure out how to give, so we didn't get it. Horrible. The one star is generous and is only because the pancakes are delicious. read more

My wife and I ate breakfast here for the first time on 1/6/2018. We ordered Pancakes, Eggs and Patty Sausage. The Eggs were OK. The sausage had a strange taste and texture. The pancakes were undercooked, they were like paste in the center. Overall, the food was awful! Also, We were sitting by the kitchen door where the waiters and waitresses gathered and was subjected to listening to conversations about "Dollar Shave Club", New Movies and how one of them would "Like To Do the actor Will Smith" I would recommend driving to Whataburger , about a half mile farther down the service road, and spending 30-40% less on good food. read more

Awesome breakfast in Abilene. I had the Eggs Benedict and they were perfectly cooked. I've tried almost everything on the menu and all of it was Delicious! Do you want to know why everything is So Good? Everything on the menu is made from Scratch! Not one or two things, EVERYTHING is made from Scratch. The main reason everything is so good is the Owner cooks everything on the menu the way She would want to eat it. No cutting corners here with pre-packaged goods. Hollandaise is made from Scratch. Best Eggs Bennie I've ever had especially in Abilene! Thank you Tammy, Tree, Ariel, Ian and Anyone I've missed. Y'all are the Best! read more

We like the Flipping Egg for breakfast but they also serve lunch. The Texas Hash and the variety of pancakes (including sweet potato and gluten-free) are unique. My personal recommendation are the sweet cream pancakes. Love there handmade fried cheese sticks! Potions aren't huge but I don't leave still hungry. read more

As my wife put it; "The Flipping Egg is flipping awful!!" Poor service, terrible food, and overall lack of concern about either. We waited to be served for about ten minutes and when the waitress came she acted annoyed and even gave us grief when we asked questions. That was the best part of the visit!!! The worst? The food was overcooked, or under cooked, not accurate, dry, and runny...I mean how is it possible to be this bad!!!! Bacon's in Hurst (?), IHOP, McDonalds, and even my cats make a better breakfast than this trash! AVOID!!! read more

MAJOR concern is only saw one of staff wearing a mask. It is irresponsible of others not to do so. Mgmt should enforce measures to protect employees and customers. Although service and food is really good, we will not go back. read more

We went to The Flipping Egg for the first time the other day with my husband and my in-laws. They eat there frequently and raved about it, so we went with to try it out for ourselves. Our server wasn't very friendly, and acted like she was almost annoyed that she had to be there. She wasn't genuine when she spoke to us. Which was pretty disheartening. We ordered our drinks and our food. The food literally took like 45min to come out. Not sure why because there weren't that many people in there. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger, my husband ordered a cheeseburger. They came out with our burgers and they had no cheese, and no bacon. I politely asked for it, and they brought us out cold cheese slices. A few minutes later the bacon followed. When we were finished eating, the server just stood there with her hand held out in front of my husband's face without saying anything as he and my father in law were in mid-conversation. He finally asked her and she said to hand her the plates on the table. The service sucked. But the environment was pretty cool and the food was actually pretty good. So it's a shame that the service didn't match the food. Because if it did, we'd probably go back. But I highly doubt we will. read more

Only okay. It saddens me but I've had a better meal at IHOP. Let me rephrased that by saying the pancake here was way better than IHOP, or anywhere else. It was delicious! They knocked it out of the park. The Texas Hash Plate left a little to be desired. Nothing was wrong with it, it just didn't blow my mind. The menu said all ingredients were made from scratch but it was pretty bland and whatever. Also, I wanted bacon (of course) but they were out so I got sausage links which turned out to be cold in the middle. read more

First time visiting this location. Service was a little slow but overall was an enjoyable experience.

Very good and accommodating staff. The food is very good and I love local restaurants.

Wow! Our 1st time here and we are impressed with the taste of the food! Very clean and the staff is very friendly and kept our drinks replenished! We have found a breakfast favorite! Thanks from the family of four.. read more

Safe and delicious GLUTEN FREE food! While on a brief overnight visit to Abilene we searched for a safe place to eat breakfast that could accommodate our food allergy needs - a difficult job in an unfamiliar city - but we found this gem! Our food was great. We had Texas Hash, omelets, pancakes and bacon. Our waiter checked with the cooks twice to ensure that we received gluten free food. What a surprise to find out that they have an entirely separate area to prep and cook all the GF food free from contamination!! The GF pancakes were divine and not something we ever thought we'd be able to eat in a restaurant. Other reviews that say this is not restaurant quality food...you are right. It isn't frozen, pre-made, full of preservatives and just reheated to serve. It's made from scratch and tastes like my own personal chef prepared my meal!!! The waitstaff was warm and welcoming, even those who weren't waiting on us. We felt at home here. Thank you Flippin Egg...when in Abilene you are our "go to" restaurant!!! read more

Probably one of the best if not the best breakfast/brunch place in Abilene, Tx. I have tried all the main breakfast meals and I have to say pretty damn tasty. I recently tried the Texas Benedict with Texas Hash and omg Amazing. Go try them out if your in town. Highly recommended! read more

Visiting Abilene this weekend. This place wasn't far from the hotel. It was busy, NONE of the workers wearing masks, all condiments at the table. Large selection of pancakes, and other breakfast offerings. Hubby ordered the "triple " which is 3 eggs, 3 pieces of meat and 3 pancakes. I had French toast and bacon. We both had coffee, which was good, and an orange juice. Took about 20 mins to get food. Came out without butter for either dish. Server stated he would be right back with butter and coffee. 10 mins (literally) later we finally we able to get the attention of another server and she brought the butter and said our server would bring coffee. Didn't happen, had to ask again. When he finally brought the pot over he was like "I'm just gonna give you half a cup" we were both like- no full cup please. That ticked him off and he let us know about it. Im.not sure if they were rationing coffee or just wanted us out of there. Hubby's breakfast he classifies as average my French toast was nothing special. Cost---$30.87-- AMAZING. Should have done Dennys. read more

My wife and I had a very nice experience. Great omelette, very tasty (and spicy) hasbrowns, pretty good cinnamon roll. The staff was very pleasant especially our server. I didn't get her name but she was efficient and very friendly. Several posts mentioned the lack of covid rules but if you're really afraid of it maybe you should stay home. That's certainly what I'd do. Great place to eat and plenty of smiling faces! read more

The food is good. The service is really bad. Hate not leaving a good tip but owner will not allow lemon to be served with tea or water, charged us with a drink we didn't order and couldn't take it off because they don't do refunds, gave my husband a coke to go but she apologized and said she is not allowed to give a coffee to go. Only got 2 cups of coffee, couldn't get 3rd refill and paid $2.59 for the 2 cups of coffee. read more

Cute place service was amazing and food was great decor is outdated but works for the place

The food and the atmosphere were great. I agree about the service but it appears that they are at least trying. Sign out front days hiring and it was our waitress' first day. The owners/management really need to take these reviews to heart and fix some things. Seems like all the reviews on Yelp, Google, and Urbanspoon are the same. We were not a fan of the "sweet cream pancakes" bc they were to sweet for us. read more
