    Another great breakfast experience at TFE! We never miss a chance for breakfast here when in town. We did wait for about 15 minutes after our 1015 arrival but then got seated fasted and orders placed quickly. Food was out in 15 minutes tops even when busy. My Denver breakfast wrap and side of ham was amazing as it always is. My only gripe is that I had to pay $1.50 extra to have it made custom vs just holding the cheese (as I requested) from the menu set item as it was which was 50 cents more. How is it 50 cents more to hold off an item? Do note also, that OJ is $4.50 a tall glass and getting flavored hotcakes vs original is also a 4.50 upcharge. My kiddos 'normal' plate and OJ was over $20 lol! More than mine or my wife's plates! Just watch the upcharge prices as it adds up. The food however is absolutely amazing and the service is on point all the time. Great spot for delicious food in big portions!

    Our brunch was fantastic! Bobby Joe our server was excellent and always checking on us. The food was so good and the order was all correct and correctly cooked. I got over medium eggs and they were cooked perfect. Nice traditional cafe ambiance.

    Kristen was our waitress today after Christmas and an amazing one at that. So kind and sweet. I loved watching her with the older gentleman next to us. Great person keeping Abilenes small town and caring spirit alive.

    Service is not very consistent. Server took our order and never came back. Coffee cup sat empty. Food is less than desirable French toast tastes like dry toast smothered in powdered sugar. Food is cold.

    Great food, crazy high prices. Skip this place.

    Do you like average food that requires a long wait and most of your money? If so, this is your spot. The pancakes are great but cost $15 bucks plus another $4 for gluten free. Rip off. Skip this place and go to Cracker Barrel.

    Flipping Eggs does not disappoint. We went Aug 11th (sorry for late review) It was a brief wait for a table. We received our meal in a timely manner. We had breakfast skillets. Eggs, Texas Hash, bacon and cheese. It was a little more than I could handle. I had leftovers that evening. I have eaten there multiple times and look forward to returning. Thank you Flipping Egg staff!

    The service isn't the best but our waitress was accommodating one she did make it to us. The waffles were light and fluffy and tasted sweet without any syrup.

The interior is that frigid, lifeless faux fancy industrial aesthetic that chills your senses and has no character of its own. The menu is what you expect. Nothing special or original just benign takes on traditional fare, like Blackened Ribeyes. We were In Abilene because my family gathered to watch my nephew's football debut at Hardin-Simmons University. My wife ordered the Caesar Salad and Truffle fries. The salad was limp, and the dressing was tangy like it was mixed with Dijon mustard Her Truffle Fries had an okay flavor. The dipping sauces were good but nothing great but the nail in the coffin was the fries were cold. Not cold as in sitting in the warmer cold, we're talking OUT ON THE COUNTER FOR 10 MINUTES OR MORE COLD!! I got the Waygu Smash burger. The burger patties, pickles, and everything inside were good but it was served on a fancy bun that was also cold. Not sitting on the counter for 10 minutes cold, we're talking RIGHT OUT OF THE FRIDGE COLD. Fancy buns should be lightly toasted to make the dense bread bearable. It totally failed my bun to juiciness ratio, and to top it off my fries were also COLD. My daughter got the Ahi Tuna Ponzo. I didn't taste it because I was busy eating my cold bun, cold fries. Plus my wife's Dijon Caesar Salad because she despises mustard. But she seemed to like it, that's why this review is three stars instead of two. She said it was "Slightly nutty and the vinaigrette is sharp and fresh without being overwhelming the tuna is seasoned nicely and it's a fatty cut not fishy at all." Listen, you could say "if it's cold send it back. Make them fix it." But the truth is that it doesn't matter. They sent out two batches of cold truffle fries (my brother in law also ordered some), my cold fries, a fancy bun that was right out of the fridge, and Caesar dressing spiked with Dijon mustard. Sending it back just would have made the experience worse, like being in a chilly hell where all the heat has been stolen so all food is served COLD.

Anna was our waitress/server and she greeted us quickly with menus and took our drink orders. Back a few moments later and took our orders. I ordered scrambled eggs; I asked for them to be very cooked/not runny, hash browns and white toast dry with some jelly on the side. My husband ordered pancakes. She returned with our orders and everything was exactly as I ordered - I was pleasantly surprised. The eggs were perfect (seems like a small victory but when you are a little picky about your eggs ... it's a huge deal to me!) John's pancakes were quite large and filling so he was a happy man! Anna was very sweet and attentive to our needs ... checked on us regarding how the food was tasting to us, drink refills, did we need anything else. Plus the place had a great vibe ... almost the feeling of a small town, welcoming diner. You could tell there were many regulars as they came through the door, several were greeted by name. A fun (and filling) experience for us and we'll definitely be heading back to see them.
