Omelette and blueberry pancakes
Alli B.

Waited about an hour on a Friday for a table of 7. Pancakes were amazing and definitely the standout here. The Salvador bahli omelette was also really good. Cute homely restaurant!

Quickest service ever! The vibe was fun, lively, and colorful. You can tell this restaurant has been a staple for many many years. The food was pretty good and simple. Would recommend this to anyone stopping by for a quick reliable meal

Can't believe it took me this long to try Uncle Will's! We went on a Tuesday morning and were seated right away. The menu has so many options, it was so hard to choose an entree! My friends got the banana nut pancakes and I got the Van Goat omelette. Need to go back again soon!

Cinnamon bun French Toast

We love Uncle Will's for breakfast at the beach. You should love the cutesy pig-laden decor. It can get noisy when it's crowded because of the lively atmosphere. We have had eggs, omelets, pancakes, and French toast at different times we've visited. The food is always delicious. Your coffee will never run dry -- and it's good! This time, I had pumpkin pecan pancakes with watermelon on the side. I got a 1/4 a melon! Delicious and sweet, pancakes were laden with pecans. They don't cheat you. The service is friendly. They take cards now, including contactless. I highly recommend Uncle Wills, and I think you should come early or later to beat the crowd.

Pigcasso omelette with Side of fruit and Toast

Uncle Will's was fabulous and provided us a 5-star breakfast experience. For a party of 9, they were very accommodating in giving us Sunday morning reservations before hand. And, glad we had those reservations, because the place was packed. The menu is extensive, with so many breakfast options and large portion sizes. I like the fact you have the option of selecting french toast or pancakes with your omelet, instead of the basic toast. I'm always torn between a sweet or savory start to the day. This way I had both! Their fresh squeezed OJ is also very good. The interior is bright and cheery and has a "pig theme". Service was very quick and friendly, even though every table in the house was full.

Uncle Will's is the best breakfast experience on LBI. Pancakes are amazing with a ton of different varieties. There are also plenty of other breakfast options to choose from. Even though it's a popular spot, the staff is very good about getting your party seated in a very reasonable amount of time. Best of all, kids love it when the pig comes to visit their table!

Wifey's strawberry french toast

Damn this place gets packed, but it was well worth the wait (1.5 hr). They take your phone number so we took the opportunity to explore despite it raining like a mofo that day. We went down to some of the gift shops to pick up sweaters and miscellaneous LBI apparel. Got the call and told em we'd be right back over in five minutes. They gladly held the table which we definitely appreciated! Had a chance to try the short rib benedict and red neck benedict. I thi k I prefer the redneck, but both were very good. I was very happy with the well done potatoes that I requested! Great spot for brunch and awesome service.

Hands down the best place!! We have been coming for years and won't stop! Great food, service and staff!

Veggie burger Benedict with potato salad
Cynthia F.

Very friendly service. Easy online ordering and curbside pickup. Online ordering shuts down at 1:00PM daily, and I had the distinction of placing one of my orders at 12:59PM. That impressed them. I called several times at 1:10PM and they took my order by phone. We were disappointed that they closed at 1:30PM every day in late September/early October. I probably would have ordered more often had they been open for dinner. My favorite menu item is the HUGE Veggie Benedict. I could never finish the entire portion. HUGE (what seemed like homemade) garden veggie burger on very delicious 7-grain toasted bread, roasted red peppers, melted Havarti cheese, and 2 poached eggs. A generous amount of every ingredient. The veggie burger is also available a la carte as a "side," towards the end of the menu, and I ordered that a few times. Quite a few times, I ordered the 4 oz nova lox, which was consistently fresh and high quality. None of the stringy stuff that poor quality lox sometimes has. I like avocado toast topped with lox, so I ordered their avocado toast several times and added the lox myself. I think sliced tomato is available as a side with avocado toast, and that goes well with the lox. I tried the crumb cake and it was good. More crumbs than cake. Lots of cinnamon. Yummy.

Awesome bfast place. Egg Combo: omelet w/ spinach, mushrooms, and onions, chocolate chip pancakes, hash browns, sausage gravy.....I ate until I was stuffed. So good! Eggs were fluffy, pancakes the perfect texture, perfect potatoes. Solid cup of coffee. Go there, eat, thank me.

Breakfast? Lunch? Dinner? It's all yours anytime of the day. We opted for breakfast (although they…read moreare known for their wings). The young man who was our server was very friendly and helpful. The decor was seaside diner. Ordered at our table...a large western style omelette, fluffy and full of the extras, a French Toast egg sandwich (clean plate club), a plate with a pancake, over easy eggs, home fries and toast, all cooked perfectly. I had the triple decker grilled cheese with bacon and tomato (I think it was called the Happy Waitress), so good, bacon perfect. Recommended!

Stopped in at Chicken & Egg while in LBI with some friends. I ordered the Redneck Benedict, which…read moresounded like a fun twist on a classic, but it ended up being just okay. The flavors were a little bland and the chicken was cut too thick, which made it less enjoyable to eat. The home fries that came with it were also disappointing -- they seemed reheated rather than freshly made, and just didn't have that crisp, flavorful kick you hope for at a breakfast spot. My friends had different dishes, but their reactions were similar -- nothing terrible, but nothing memorable either. We all left feeling like the food was a little underwhelming overall. The bathroom was serviceable but not especially clean, and while the service was fine, it wasn't anything that stood out as particularly attentive or warm. On the positive side, the decor was pleasant and gave the place a nice atmosphere. Honestly, that was probably the highlight of the experience for me. If Yelp allowed half-star ratings, I'd give it a 3.5 just for the vibe. All in all, Chicken & Egg isn't a bad place, but it didn't really impress. With so many options around, it's not somewhere I'd rush back to, but I wouldn't call it a total miss either -- more middle of the road.

Good experience at Station 117. I like both of their spaces. Inside is a light and airy "lifesaving…read morestation" and they have a really nice outdoor dining area and bar. Spaghetti Beach Haven was tasty but light on the protein. 3 shrimp and the crab was an ounce at most. Really enjoyed the garlic toast! Good selection of draft beer. Service was friendly and efficient. Although at night they should ask servers to leave their baseball hats at home.

This was a large wood panel spot with lots of seating including outdoors. There was a good-sized…read morebar present too. The menu was limited, but still a nice variety of options. The service was friendly while the food came out fast. For a starter, a dozen oysters were ordered. The oyster on the day I attended were from Chincoteague. They were extremely large and came out well chilled. These were tasty and appeared very fresh. For an entrée, I had the grilled swordfish. It came with an avocado shrimp salad and haricot verts. There was also an herb butter present on the fish. The piece of fish was on the smaller end but cooked ideally. The flavor was alright. The butter was tasted, but not enough seasoning was present on the fish. It tasted a little bland. The two sides also lacked in quantity. The avocado shrimp was also just decent. I also tried a crab cake, which was rather large. Again, this was not bad. Three more items I tried were scallop risotto, coconut rice and the old beach haven spaghetti. Yet again, all three were okay, but the spaghetti definitely was the preferred choice. The scallops were not cooked the best and was plain too as well as the coconut rice. Will I go back? Possibly.

Once again Blue Water Cafe was everything I expect it to be. Came here again on our annual outing…read morewith the family. Weather has been crappy here all week so we were able to get a table immediately. I love that it's BYOB here both to save a little money and to bring wine we know we're going to love. We were seated at the same table as last year (odd coincidence) and started looking over the menu when they brought over an ice bucket for our wine (a nice Italian rosé). For appetizers my daughter and I both got a bowl (you heard me, a bowl) of the best clam chowder I've had on the Island, the rest of the crowd had wedge salads or house salads. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the best clam chowder I've had here...not even close. This year I went with the seafood scampi special - shrimp, crab, and scallops over angel hair. Wifey had the stuffed shrimp special, my son had the salmon picatta, daughter had the shrimp pomodoro, and her fiancé had the grilled salmon. Five meals of perfection. Just the right serving size, excellent flavors, great service. Keep in mind they don't take reservations so on a normal night we would have waited. Also, limited parking so pay attention to the signs on the streets. This is a great place to eat, but it can get a little loud inside. 100% recommend! P.s. my son lost his ear buds here tonight, but when he called they had already found them and put them aside for him. We just stopped by on the way back from Bay Village and picked them up.

Omg wow. Everything was amazing. Personal standouts were the blue crab dip, graham slam gelato and…read morethe meatloaf. Phenomenal food and beautiful restaurant, our service was great too! The salmon was delicious too and veggies were fresh. Lots of outdoor seating as well as a great patio while you wait for a table where you can also order a drink.
