It's pretty rustic inside, nothing fancy with mismatched tables and chairs. Walks are covered in owls. All kinds of owls. And they are for sale! Have merch as well. Menu is big and had many options. Wife got the French toast while I got the Owls 66, chicken fried chicken patty, eggs, potatoes and biscuits and gravy. Came with a slice of apple pie. Chicken patty was ok, not great, potato was good, biscuits and gravy delicious! Apple pie came with cream but they forgot to bring it and took forever to get it French toast was good. Wife loved it. We bought 2 owls off the wall, felt bad cause they had to ask a table of 8 to move so they could get it down. Was a nice time, food was good. Spent like 40 on food and 75 on owls!! read more

We visited The Toasted Owl this morning, and our experience was a mix of truly wonderful moments and one frustrating one. I want to start with the positives, because they deserve to be recognized. First and foremost, our server Parker was outstanding. From the moment he greeted us, he was kind, attentive, and genuinely warm. Our little one had brought along his Spider-Man toy, and Parker leaned in and told him he was actually Peter Parker, working undercover as a server. Our little was completely starstruck. Parker was also incredibly patient as our little guy practiced ordering politely on his own, and when it came time to pay, Parker let him tap the card and cracked one of the best server jokes we've ever heard. Moments like that turn a regular breakfast into a memory. Parker, thank you for the amazing service and for being so, so kind to our family. The food and drinks were equally excellent. Everything came out fresh, delicious, and exactly as ordered, so huge compliments to the back of the house. Unfortunately, the rest of our experience didn't match that standard. The Toasted Owl is well known for being dog friendly, so we brought our pup along to enjoy the fall weather. It was about 50 degrees when we arrived around 8:30 to 9 a.m., and some overnight rain had left the patio tables a bit damp. That was no problem for us. We were happy to help wipe down our table and chairs, and we were fine sitting on a slightly damp seat for a moment. Since we had our dog, the patio was our only option. While we were choosing a table in the sun, I said something simple like, "Whatever table is easiest for you all, we'll be happy at." The other patio server (white gentleman, beard, bald, leg tattoos) responded with a snarky, "If you sat inside, that would be easiest." We were annoyed but brushed it off, since the hostesses and the other servers helping out were all incredibly nice. It didn't stop there. As the morning went on, more families arrived with dogs and asked to sit outside, which is exactly what this restaurant advertises. With every single group, we had to listen to this server complain. He made sure everyone on the patio knew he was unhappy, even though every person he complained to was a paying customer. It made it hard to enjoy the breakfast we were paying for and the lovely experience Parker was giving us. Customer service is the heart of a restaurant like this, and this server's attitude stood in stark contrast to the rest of the staff. The Toasted Owl has something special in employees like Parker, and I hope management takes a close look at how their patio is being run, because one person's behavior nearly overshadowed an otherwise fantastic visit. This would be a 5 star review if we did not have to hear this gentleman's non stop complaints during breakfast. I feel for the families that were stuck with his service, if we were one of those families, this review would by far be a 1 star. read more

Service was great, food was good quality. My daughter LOVED the cinnamon roll. It was so soft and the icing was very rich. My coffee got topped off no less than 4 times during breakfast, our server was so nice and very attentive. Like everyone else says, the bacon is thick and top notch flavor. It came out soft, so if you like crunchy bacon make sure to order it that way. The brioche French toast was good. The pancakes were also good (and large). The pancake had a hint of vanilla. The decor inside was eclectic with all of the owl figurines and cookie jars and antique furniture. read more

Cute and quirky spot for a flagstaff brunch. The owl decor is all for sale, which is so much fun. The food is pretty standard brunch food, but their green chili is sooooo good (don't skip out on this but beware, it is spicy). Their cinnamon roll is soft and sweet. Service can be spotty. When we went, we sat at our table for over 20 minutes before someone even came over to say hi. HOWEVER, once we alerted someone, they expedited our food and were super apologetic. Overall, nice staff, eclectic decor, and pretty good food. read more

The ambiance is very cute and the service was good. I got the Vegan Breakfast with a pancake and my husband got the chilaquiles. The vegan bacon tasted a little funky, and I've been vegan for almost 10 years so I'm aware of what it's supposed to taste like. Everything else on my plate was delicious. As for the chilaquiles, my husband couldn't eat more than 1/3 of it. It was made incorrectly and very mushy. The staff just said sorry and made us pay for it, which is fine, but didn't offer to sub or deduct the cost? Maybe we need to try something else next time, but overall, our first experience wasn't the greatest. read more

Healthy options, great staff! Parking is limited but not hard to find! Street parking is cheap, and there are plenty of spaces around the restaurant. Staff is extremely friendly! I had quick service, found a hair in my food, and the staff apologized sincerely for the occurrence and got me a new plate of food expeditiously. The food was excellent and came in big portions. I had the Owls nest, healthy veggies with a kick to it! I'd highly recommend, and I had a coffee that was average but great! The restaurant is beautiful. The toasted owl and their ode to Owls is felt from the design of their restaurant, to their merch, cups, bathrooms all of it. I love when a restaurant carries a theme that is meaningful and fun and they do it right here. This establishment is definitely worth your time. I hope you enjoy it! read more

Service: Our server Beatrice was great, she needs a raise. ASAP! She was very attentive and checked on us often. We were seated by the door, so I really appreciated hearing the gentleman at front that they could wait, but it would have to be outside for a fire regulation. Didn't want people hovering while were eating. Ambiance: Heavy on the owl! It is cute restaurant. Reminds me a lot of Asheville, NC vibe. Food: Great breakfast. The potatoes were the absolute best! read more

This is a quirky place with very good food! They have both indoor and a great patio seating. They offer a large menu of both breakfast and lunch options. We enjoyed both the grilled cheese sandwich and the grilled veggie wrap. Both were served fresh and flavorful, with very good fries. The service is friendly, but, can be a little slow when they are really busy, but, worth it. We will definitely return to try other selections on their menu. read more

I'm going to admit straight out of the gate that I should have taken more photos of this eclectic and awesome eatery!

The service is excellent. And the food. Oh myyyyyyy. I asked our server for a recommendation and she did not lead me astray. Get yourself the prosciutto and Brie sandwich; you won't regret it!

We came here for brunch for a friend's birthday celebration and it was a great start to the day. The outside waiting area was open and refreshing. We were seated within about 20 minutes of arriving and our waiter was with us quickly. We liked the expansive menu with several drink options that were perfect for brunch. I particularly liked the cinnamon screech owl, it reminded me of an alcoholic chai. I got the and roasted potatoes with toast. The potatoes were fantastic! Loved them! Overall we really enjoyed our visit and would come back again. Great spot for brunch with friends. read more

The service is always great but the food is extremely mid. I ordered the eggs Benedict, cinnamon roll and water. $30... the English muffin was so stiff I couldn't cut it with my butter knife.

Loved this spot! My friends and I came in on a weekday for lunch and had no trouble getting a table outside. You really can't go wrong sitting inside either because the decor is super fun.

We came as a group of four girls on a busy Saturday afternoon and waited a short while before getting seated at their community table inside with a few other folks. We ordered french toast to share for starters and were told that there would be a $3 per plate charge for us to get plates to split it. When we told them we each planned to order our own meals as well, they forwent (that's a fun word I rarely use...) the extra charge which we appreciated. The french toast ended up being our least favorite part of the meal. It was somewhat hard and lacked flavor. I prefer soggy custard-like french toast. The potatoes were crisped to perfection, though I wished they were a little smaller. I also got the breakfast tacos with black beans and vegan chorizo, which was good but nothing I would crave again. I drank a pineapple mimosa, which was a nice big size and well balanced. read more

The toasted owl is a fun, quirky restaurant that should definitely be checked out! The restaurant has a lively atmosphere and attentive servers. If you do get a little claustrophobic or overwhelmed with noise, I would recommend coming a little later (it slowed down around 1:30pm on a sunday). The theme for the restaurant is owls, and they do not let you forget! Everything in the café is for sale, so if you fall in love with something on the wall just let your server know! My party of 3 sat at the bar due to how busy it was, and we didn't feel forgotten by our server... which tends to happen when you sit at the bar at other places. She was extremely nice and our drinks and food were brought out promptly. I ordered a ruben with pastrami. The pastrami was delicious, it wasn't too salty or greasy. The ratio of saurkraut, dressing, cheese, pastrami, and bread was perfect and the sandwhich didn't feel heavy. The other people in my party ordered a BLAT and a BBQ Western Burger. They both loved their food as well and had absoloutly no complaints. The lunch entrees come with a side of fries and they were fantastic, I would come back just for their fries. I would definitely check out this restaurant next time you are in flagstaff so that you can enjoy their unique vibe and great food! Although we ended up having a great experience, I wanted to mention the horrible experience we had with the hostess. My party of 3 (women) walked in and were followed by a party of 5. The hostess made eye contact with us and then promptly ignored us 3 and turned automatically to the man in the party of 5 behind us and asked how many he had in his party in order to put them on the waitlist. He said 5 and even signaled who was in his party (not us). Even though it was a little rude of the hostess and a bit frustrating for her to just skip over us, we would have just ignored it and gotten over it.... except, the other woman at the desk realized what happened and in order to "make things right" she tried to put us on the waitlist. The hostess overheard her and rudely snapped at her, the poor woman then just apologized to us and said that the other girl was the hostess and could help us in a minute. The other woman reacted as if this was something that is a common occurance with this hostess. As soon as the hostess was done with putting the party of 5 on the list, she turned to us. I was the one who spoke with her and had her add us to the waitlist. She was still beyond rude, she was rolling her eyes persistently at me and had a not so friendly tone...it almost was like she had an extremely personal issue with my party? When I was giving her my phone number for the waitlist she had me repeat it about 10 times, I had pronounced the numbers extremely clearly, slowly, and loud enough to be heard each time. She added us to the waitlist and told us how long the wait was and then physically gave the hand signal to shoo us off. We stepped outside to wait for our table and were about to have the "what the heck just happened conversation" when in less than minute, a different staff member who was around the hostess desk when we checked in came out and asked if we would be okay with sitting at the bar. She was extremely nice and our experience went up from there. I wanted to mention this because the hostess is the face of the restaurant, she is the first person that anyone interacts with when they walk in those doors and she sets the tone for their experience. If this is how she normally acts, which given the reaction of her coworker seems likely, then she shouldn't be a hostess at all. The only reason why we didn't leave was because one of our party members use to live in Flagstaff and had been here multiple times. Anyone who has never been to the Toasted Owl, probably would have left and missed this experience. I had an extremely hard time deciding on how many stars to give this review, I am still giving The Toasted Owl Cafe a 5 star review because I don't think that the other staff members or any other part of my experience deserves any less... but if I were to rate only off of the first impression we got, which was the hostess. Then I would have rated it a 1 star with a "beware of this restaurant" review. read more

We enjoyed our breakfast. We got seated indoors right away (12:30 on a Friday). Turns out though that a group of six young women were seated behind us and their conversation was lively. We asked to move closer to the front door area. It was much better. And no shade to the young women, they were just catching up and having fun. Plus, the acoustics indoors is quite live. Our server Kayce B was super nice. She brought us waters and coffees right away. We'd already looked at reviews and knew we were splitting a Giant Cinnamon Roll and Breakfast Tacos with Roasted Potatoes. We placed our order and the Giant Cinnamon Roll came out right away. It was sweet and tasty but it was not giant (see pic). Eat the cinnamon roll as soon as it's placed as it turns hard after about 10 minutes. The meal came soon after. It was a lot of food and we're happy we split it. We had scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, ham and ham in our taco. They were served hot and with a cup of salsa on the side. The tacos were real tasty. The roasted potatoes were amazing. So happy they were oven roasted and not deep fried. They were perfectly cooked. Nice and creamy inside and seasoned well too. We have no plans to return to Flagstaff (been here a few times) but we recommend you give The Toasted Owl a try. read more

Leaving a less than stellar review is never my go to. However, if the owners see it, I hope they improve because this place shows potential. So here goes some honest feedback... To start, they seated our party of three at an 8-top when there was a 4-top available...which was odd. We asked to be moved to a smaller table and they were kind enough to move us. We fixed the wobble at the new table with a folded napkin and were in business. Service after we were moved to a new table (a 6-top, though 4-top was still available) went down. Food came out lukewarm which was disappointing. Would've tasted great if it was hot. I usually have more patience with this when a restaurant is busy. It was not. Maybe it was the servers first day on the job? While decor is meant to be rustic and outdoor feeling, it felt more on the dingy side. This place needs to amp up their overall game if they want to survive. Between the mediocre service, cost of food, and dingy atmosphere the $86 price tag for 3 people isn't worth me visiting again. Again, there's potential. Overall though waaaaayy too expensive! People come to these places for ambiance, excellent food, and amazing service. It helps them overlook the price tag. I call it the "dive trifecta". Check prices before you go, because if they are still over $10 a plate you are better off at Denny's or IHOP. read more

This was by our hotel and tried it out. The decor was interesting which was all owls and everything was for sale. Service was okay, not crowded but we had to ask for refills and interesting enough the owner walked by us many times and didn't once say anything to us but chatted with her employee's, that rubbed me the wrong way since it's a small restaurant. The food was unique but delicious. We went on a weekday so it wasn't crowded but they say it gets crowded quickly. read more

The food was good. My issue is with the restaurant's billing practices. Customers generally tip a percentage of the check to compensate their server. I normally tip 20-25% for typical service and more when the service is exceptional. What customers are not clearly told is that Flagstaff requires the restaurant to pay its employees the applicable minimum wage. I have no problem with the employees being paid that wage. What I do have a problem with is this: the menu lists the food at one price, and then the restaurant adds a mandatory 7% "Flagstaff Service" fee to the bill to offset the cost of paying that required wage. So, after the mandatory 7% fee and my customary 25% tip, I effectively paid an additional 32% above the menu prices. I would have tipped our server regardless. Servers work hard, and good service deserves recognition. But customers should be told clearly and upfront about mandatory additional charges so they can make an informed decision about both the actual cost of the meal and the gratuity they choose to leave. We were visiting Flagstaff on vacation, so this probably won't affect me again. But future customers may want to know about the additional charge before they order. read more

We showed up around 8:30 for breakfast and were seated outside at a small table. The patio area is nice next to the small garden and there were umbrellas available. I had high hopes for this place, but after waiting for 20 minutes and no one came to our table we almost went elsewhere. A server came over and apologized, saying no one told her that we'd been seated and we were out of sight. They weren't even busy yet, maybe two or three tables seated total. We ordered a hot coffee and mimosa (iced coffee is with vanilla creamer pods), and two plates of the Two Egg Breakfast. Drinks arrived first of course, then food followed about 15 minutes later. Our server has been more attentive since our rough beginning. Unfortunately we were underwhelmed by the plates, though it came out as ordered. Perhaps another dish would have had different results. Wasn't the best experience, especially after starting with a bad taste in our mouth. Don't think we will be going back... read more

This place is my favorite kind of weird. Quirky, unique, comfy and fabulous. Service is top notch. You get care and attention from everyone in the place. And it's evident they enjoy working there and working together . The decor is so much fun and there is so much to see. And according to the sign, it's all for sale. One of their fabulous vintage light fixtures nearly came home with me. Extensive menu with something for everyone. Solid and delicious coffee. The food was made with much care, perfectly seasoned and came out quickly and piping hot. The potatoes and cinnamon roll will rock your world.
