My husband and I were in the area for a little getaway, and we HAD to find a good breakfast place - it's our favorite meal to go out to. This little spot stepped up to the plate, since it was only 5mins from where we were staying. We got there on a weekday morning around 930/10am. There were only 3 other parties there, I guess people have jobs or something. Anyway, we sat and were immediately served coffee and water - nice. I got a veggie scramble and he got some pancakes. We were served some of the most ENORMOUS portions I have ever seen. I got bacon and toast with my 8 eggs + veggies and finished half of everything. He demolished his pancakes but had to nap right after, natch. It was good food for cheap, which I will never complain about. Definitely worth popping into if you are in the area. read more

The best family place just look at these pancakes!!!! Great specials try the apple cranberry walnut pancakes or "Benny" eggs Benedict!!!! Check out my nieces in the photos Silvana read more

Love this great breakfast/lunch place! The staff is so friendly, you feel like you're part of the family. Their eggs Benedict is always a favorite of mine. Breakfast burritos and soups are wonderful, especially their crab bisque. This is my go to breakfast place and I love trying new dishes. Their specials are always on the wall so you can try something different. It's a small place so I recommend coming earlier for breakfast or just allow time to wait, it's never a long wait. You can sit in your car if need be and not miss your spot. I've brought family and friends here and we will be coming back again together!! read more

Cozy restaurant, great service and food. Have enjoyed many breakfasts at the location.

Tom catered so many events for me this past year. He did my bridal shower, rehearsal dinner and even my wedding! He is a great guy and let's you customize nearly anything and add whatever you want to your own menu. The best part is that he is extremely affordable! My family and I plan to use him again and again in the future. He is creative, responsive, kind and great at what he does. Thanks Tom!! - Alyssa & Lucas read more

My husband and I frequently dine here for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and we have NEVER had a bad meal. Along with their fabulous dining food, Chef Tom catered our wedding on 10/14/17 and went ABOVE and BEYOND! We cannot possibly say enough wonderful things about Chef Tom and his crew. I could go on and on and on about how perfect they help make our day. From the first moment we met with Chef Tom, he made us feel comfortable and confident that TW Howell's was the right pick. From a completely customized menu, then a sudden change of heart and total menu change, dealing with rentals, other vendors, set up before the wedding, we are SO appreciative of the love and care that Chef Tom puts into his craft. During our wedding weekend, I was in constant contact with Chef Tom and even during a table crisis, he kept me calm and reassured that everything would work out perfectly, and it did! Chef Tom and his crew helped set up, break down, and of course, serve the best wedding meal. Everything was homemade, fresh, and delicious! People are still telling us how much they enjoyed our wedding food! Chef Tom & his crew made sure that my husband & I were well fed and taken care of throughout the day and it made a HUGE difference! We were served appetizers before the ceremony, during cocktail hour servers made sure to find us, and our dinner was made and kept warm for us! There are so many more things I could write but the overall feeling we have towards Chef Tom & TW Howell's is pure joy! We love this establishment and highly recommend them whether it be eating a meal or catering a special event. We love them!! read more

Setting: cozy atmosphere setting. Service: service kinda slow only had two waitresses tending to the whole restaurant though, friendly older staff Food: ordered the breakfast burrito with blueberry waffles. Burrito was perfect size for one person. The waffle was a little fluffy for my taste. Coffee tasted Linda bitter read more

This place is fantastic. Pancakes were cooked perfectly. The wait staff was super efficient and attentive. My coffee cup never went empty! In some of the smaller cafe type restaurants, you often find they are short on staff but not at Howell's. Going back again soon to try their famous grilled oatmeal I hear they have a different type every week Update: was there this Saturday and it was awful. Pancakes flatter than a manhole cover and rubbery. My wife's eggs Benedict were cold and the ham was supposed to be Canadian bacon but was a cut up ham steak. Yikes I don't know what happened here but they need to fix it. Should have known something was a miss when we got a table quickly and there was only 2 other tables occupied read more

Debbie is amazing! The food is wonderful. Made from scratch. A definite destination when near Atlantic city. read more

Ate here once and it was a nice little place for breakfast. Good food and not too expensive. However, my boyfriend and I ordered from here yesterday and got extremely sick from it. Don't get me wrong, the food tasted good, but it did not sit well at all. read more

Waitress was very rude. Food was horrible burnt eggs ( how does a breakfast place not know how to cook eggs) all the food tasted like it came off a dirty grill. Very dissapointed this place used to be decent. read more

Excellent food and service. My wife had a flounder sandwich special that was huge and delicious! The food is always spectacular here. read more

Wow! What a delightful place. It has a very homey feel, plenty of locals, clean and the food is awesome. We had corn beef hash skillet and eggs Benedict with Canadian bacon. Delicious. The best hollandaise sauce and the poached eggs on both dishes were perfect. We will be back for more. So glad to have found a local spot like this! read more

Love love love this place. The owner and staff have become a second family. Must try the specials board, you won't be disappointed.

I love my breakfast food, so this place seem like a cool spot to get my breakfast fix. This is a tiny spot, but luckily they have outside seating. My fiance and I decided to sit putside since it was so nice out. Our waitress was extremely nice and willing to chat with us. I decided on the cereal french toast and a side of scrapple. The french toast was great, and I think it was encrusted with Apple Jacks. My scrapple was forgotten about, but got it promptly when I made our waitress aware. Great breakfast spot that you should try if you want something good! read more

This is a tiny place with big food. Great breakfast spot. Good friendly service and you leave satisfied. Hardest part is figuring out what to eat. read more

Overpiced. Better food from Aunt Jemima frozen food. Waaay salty sausage. With 2 waitresses in a small place, and off peak 3 tables total ,ran by my ice tea empty multiple times without offering a refill until I asked. Somewhat dirty (grimy s&p shaker, dirty spoon,dirty ketchup bottle). While there may not be alot of choices nearby do yourself a favor and pass this mess,so bad I thought we were on a hidden camera show read more

This used to be our go to place for a great breakfast, but I'm sad to say we will not be returning. Today the food there was subpar. My BLT sandwich had 2 slices of bacon on the entire sandwich. The service which previously was great, was pathetic. Literally had to get up and go to the counter and get our refills or ask our waitress for anything. Sad to see this place take such a drive. I had heard from others that it gone down hill, I just didn't believe them, they were absolutely right. Looks like we'll be searching for a new place after 6 years of going here. read more

Cute, little local dinner. Only open til 2. I had the french toast combo (eggs and bacon) not much to complain about...I do wish, however that I ordered the fresh squeezed OJ rather than regular. read more

At the recommendation of a friend we took some other friends to TW Howells. Not only did we enjoy our breakfast, but the family-like atmosphere was very enjoyable. I took the time to read the story on the back of the menu of how they came to open the restaurant and that made it even better. Rarely can I not finish a meal, but to my wife's surprise I didn't because of the size. read more

The crab cakes were so delicious! Food was quick and hot! Service was good too! Kid friendly and the perfect place to grab a kid friendly meal.! Glad we found it while visiting from out of town read more

Sat at the counter. Warm and friendly! Huge portions. Great stop. Very near a shrine that is cool.

I like this place I've been there a few times and would definitely go back again. Food is really simple but the portions are huge. Very friendly service for which I give it an extra star otherwise I'd just do three. read more

Wonderful food, great service from awesome people! Their prices are very reasonable, and the amount of food served is crazy! Plan on taking a doggie bag because Chef Tom's idea of a serving is like a serving for the family! Just went last night to their Dinner, and couldn't have been more pleased! I'd put their Seafood Combo up against any 5 Star Restaurant that I've ever been to! The rating would only give me 5 star option, but my personal rating would have been higher. Count on me as a life time Customer! One of Atlantic County's greatest secret ( except for locals who know better! ) read more

Food is delicious, they always have unique specials, and the staff is super friendly! It's a small, cute, inviting place for breakfast or lunch, and I will definitely be returning many times in the future. read more

Although I haven't been here in a while, I used to work right around the corner. Breakfast is phenomenal here. Love the grandpa's hash skillet. awesome, hearty, super filling. just amazing. I get with poached eggs and it is heaven. Also love the crab bisque. so much crab! they are very flexible and will make whatever you want. One day I was in the mood for a shrimp po boy. not on the menu, but they were more than happy to cook one up for me. I used to get them to cater breakfast for my office. If I recall, I would spend about $110 and the amount of food for that $ was amazing. pancakes, bacon, sausage, homefries, toast. Just a ton of food. I had maybe 13 people in the office and all ate their fill, with food left over. I have to get back there, because it is a great place. read more

Cute little place Excellent food & Very friendly staff,great atmosphere! I ordered the eggs Benedict with the sweet crab leg meat & it was delicious, my husband had pancakes with his order which I tried & loved! They have the most delicious pancakes! I will be ordering those next time! Love it & will be returning. read more

Food was delicious the service was great! Small and cozy neighborhood atmosphere. Prices were good and the portions were huge!! We will be back!! read more

Gave it a try for breakfast with my wife and wasnt a fan. Pancakes were undercooked and mushy. Price was average certainly not cheap. My wife ordered the "fresh squeezed daily" orange juice, which was very clearly not fresh squeezed but rather a not from concentrate oj like tropicana. Dont get me wrong i love trop. , but thats not from concentrate, not fresh squeezed daily. When i feel deceived as a consumer even if its over a glass of oj it just bugs me. read more

Love this place! The servers Ann Marie and Debbie are the best. Their specials are to die for and change weekly. They are set to reopen the bar formally know as the Avenue in Egg Harbor City as Howells Pub. I can't wait. Their catering is also amazing. I can't say enough good things about this business. Come and see for yourself. read more

I was really excited for this place because it has great prices and good star rating. When I got there I thought it was super quaint. I loved how small it is! But when I got inside the waitress was too into a conversation with what I thought was a customer and then realized was a coworker to say hello. She did start to get silverware for me but didn't say hi. The food was okay nothing too special. But I didn't get checked on once to see if I needed anything. read more

Super yummy breakfast and close to Stockton university!!! Staff was very pleasant and the food came out quick and was delicious

Excellent Breakfast spot. Cannot go wrong with any menu choice unless you eat like a bird. Friendly atmosphere, great service, good prices and exceptional breakfast offerings. I'm sure lunch is served with the same high standards, just have never tried it. read more

dozen tables (2 and 4 tops) and half dozen counter spots, clean, attractive, quiet and full of friendly regulars...'please seat yourself', coffee delivered with cream dish resting on top to keep hot, morning's paper offered..all nice touches, lump crab benedict double the price of every other entree and delicious...potatoes real, large, with skins, coffee acceptable with ez refills...omelettes are four eggs and all eyed portions on other tables generous...nice variety of specials on blackboard and breakfast served ALL day, no silly cut-offs..whole dish arrived just warm when it should have been hot, but overall positive impression warrants a hasty return... read more

Great spot for breakfast and lunch. Pancakes are ridiculously good. They're also open for dinner on the weekends.

Amazing breakfast and friendly service! I will definitely be coming back! They even had a little coffee stand outside for those waiting for a table. read more

I have eaten breakfast here many times and the food is always fresh and tasty but I did not learn until recently that they also do catering I ordered a tray of chicken parm for an event and it was delicious! Highly recommend and I am looking to trying their lunch and dinners.! read more

Passed this place a million times and after seeing the reviews on Yelp decided to give it a try. Great breakfast! Had the breakfast quesadilla, they gladly made it with turkey sausage instead of pork. Tasty, enormous portion. No need for lunch. Will definitely be back. read more

Tom and his staff are the absolute best! They do the most wonderful catering .Please use him for weddings and parties you will be more then happy! read more

Ordered a sandwich tray for a holiday party. The turkey and roast beef were so over cooked, the sandwiches fell apart. Very disappointed. Will not do that again. read more
