    Chilaquiles and Chicken & Waffles
    Artianna S.

    A friend and I tried out Union Street Cafe one weekday for brunch and really enjoyed it! The waitresses were extremely welcoming and attentive and made sure we had what we needed. I ordered the chilaquiles and my friend got chicken and waffles. The chilaquiles were delicious! (Be sure to not let it settle for too long or the tortillas start to get a little soggy). They were a little spicier than expected, but I enjoy spice. If you do not like spicy, I would not recommend. My friend enjoyed her chicken and waffles and felt the chicken was well seasoned and the waffle was tasty! Overall, it was a pleasant experience in downtown Concord and I would come back!

    I have been meaning to take a stroll in Downtown Concord and check out all the local shops. Finally got a chance to have a nice local breakfast. Service was nice, quick and friendly. I ordered scrambled eggs, toast and potatoes. My daughter had the blueberry pancakes that she enjoyed. Such a nice place to sit and relax with a strong cup of coffee. Sit by the window and just gaze out and relax!

    Came to union street Cafe on a Sunday morning, and it was the cutest little Cafe that has a few tables on the inside and nice outdoor seating as well. The café is small but airy at the same time which is nice! We were greeted immediately upon arriving and got to select our own seating. We sat by the window and it was a vibe. Our waitress was really sweet and offered a few recommendations since I had informed her that this was our first time coming. I did have to ask for a kids menu for my son though as it was not provided when we were seated. I'm happy I asked because there was a drastic difference in the prices! I ordered the biscuits and gravy (that includes an egg prepared how you like) which was suggested by our waitress, I wanted breakfast potatoes as well so ordered a side of those as well. My son ordered a waffle off the kids menu which only came with a drink so we had to order a side of bacon. For his drink, he got lemonade. Our food didn't take too long to come out, I overheard one of the other waitresses tell her table that the food is made fresh to order from scratch so, that's good to know. I was not impressed with the biscuits and gravy, it was a bit bland and that's probably because the biscuits are massive and in my opinion need way more gravy. The dish was not hot and the gravy was to thick so the consistency was off putting. The potatoes were piping hot and delicious, it was just way to much food... I hate reheated potatoes so when asked if I wanted a to go box for them, I declined. My son said his waffle was just okay, and made it a point to say he preferred waffle house waffles over this one. He ate it all though so, there's that! My waitress clearly seen that I had hardly touched my food and asked me if I wanted a to go box, I politely declined, but here's my issue, she didn't ask me if I was satisfied with my meal, I clearly was not but there was no inquiry as to why I barely touched my food and was not willing to take it with me. They missed the mark there. I did paid my tab through the QR code and they do ask via a survey on the web about your experience and I left my feedback there, but I'm disappointed that my waitress didn't care to ask. Also, my son didn't drink his lemonade because it was sickly sweet, I tried a sip and boy oh boy was it sweet, we tried diluting it with water and it was still to sweet, imagine how sweet something has to be for a child to reject it! Yes, I still tipped her. They have an interesting menu, so I'd be willing to come back and try something different!

    My daughter and I wanted to try something different and I've been wanting to explore more on my side of town, so we found Union Street Cafe. We were both immediately drawn to pictures of the Strawberry Crunch pancakes and wanted to try it. As soon as we entered, we were greeted and seated quickly. The atmosphere and vibes were amazing, music was a mixture of pop and R&B, and everyone was friendly. The menu had some great options so it was hard to choose but I ordered the Strawberry Crunch Pancakes, Jalapeño White Cheddar grits, bacon, and eggs. Everything was AMAZING!!!! I don't like spicy food and the grits was not spicy at all! As you see in the picture, I couldn't even eat all of this and took some home, but I would recommend everyone to at least visit very soon! I'm going back and plan on ordering lunch. I was able to look at someone else's table and the burger looked delicious and very filling!

    This place was so surprisingly tasty. The blueberry pancake was cooked to perfection. Though their menu is simple, the food looks and tastes amazing. The wait staff was very attentive and it didn't take long at all for my food to come after ordering. There is a ton of seating in here with a view of the street and great lighting to soak up some sun as you start your morning.

    The food was pretty good and fulfilling. The place is nice and clean. The staff were nice too. The food took a little less than 15 mins to come out. The potatoes were my favorite, definitely something to share. The waffles were good, not too sweet though. Overall everything was good and the ranch is also very good!!

    This was my first time going to this brunch breakfast area come to find out. It's around the corner from my job. I came here with my husband to have breakfast and it was pretty good. The French toast was the best with the fried chicken and the bacon, not a big fan of the grits or the chorizo with potatoes, but overall the food was pretty good.

    I liked this place a lot! The eggs were a tad hard for my liking and didn't have any seasoning though. Everything else was great. I'm a French 75 fan so their drink with the sweet tea take on a French 75 caught my eye. I'm glad I tried it too it was different but good. Service was quick and there was plenty of seating indoors and outdoors.

    We stopped by for breakfast and were so glad we did! We tried the jalapeño grits with collards, the egg scramble, and the French toast. all three were incredibly delicious and full of flavor. You can really tell everything is made to order. Our waitress, Kim, went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. We chose to sit outside to enjoy the nice weather -- aside from a few flies, it was the perfect way to start the day. Highly recommend this spot for its fresh, flavorful dishes and outstanding service!

    I've been exploring downtown Concord a lot lately and I always walk past this place but today I decided to swing by with the fam. We got there around 10:40 am (Saturday) and there were some seats available for our party of 3. We were seated very fast and given our menus. Andrea who was our server was very nice! I ended up ordering the ham, eggs and potatoes, my daughter ordered from the kids menu and had the ham and cheese sandwich w/ fruit and my girlfriend ordered the chicken and Waffles. We didn't have to wait long for our food to arrive , my daughter was kept occupied coloring on the paper menu for kids. My plate looked delicious! All the plates did actually. The ham was huge and I went to WORK on that thing. My girlfriend said the chicken was seasoned very good and my daughter tore up her ham and cheese sandwich. I already know imma be back.

    The food was so good. Just got back from Mexico and had to get the chilaquiles... these were excellent. Very similar flavor profile. Tasty regardless! Pancake was full of blueberries. My partner loved the chicken and waffle. OJ was good too. Highly recommend. Will definitely plan to go back. Waitress was great. Very kind and attentive. Good vibes!

    This is one of the few breakfast spots in the older downtown area of Concord. The area is being revitalized as many smaller downtowns are replicating to stimulate more business and activities after a dormant period. The place is clean, only 1 restroom in the back. Coffee is very good, nice aroma and texture. I ordered the scramble with wheat toast. It wasn't bad but needed a side of ham or bacon that I didn't think would be necessary. Service is very good and friendly. I believe I should have picked another entrée compared to my first selection. I will return back in the next few months and hopefully will upgrade my Yelp rating.

I ordered the Five and Dime Biscuit with the Peach Berry Lemonade. The biscuit comes with a chicken strip, bacon, egg (cooked how you want it), and either sausage(what I got) or mushroom gravy. Is it messy? Yes. Is it good though? Yes! The peach berry lemonade was a definite star for me because it didn't have actual berries at the bottom and it wasn't an overwhelming flavor from both the peach and berry. We also got the chicken and waffles and they were great as well. The churro latte was fine, it wasn't my favorite, but it was still good for what it was. All still a really good breakfast place to stop by whether you are in a rush or you want to sit down and converse.

Brought to our table after we had ordered it at the counter. The inside had a lot of seating options and they had an outdoor patio as well. The store was clean-ish. My star deduction comes from the pricing. It is HIGH for a chicken biscuit!! (As well as the beverages) I'm from Bojangles country and 12.00+ for a chicken biscuit even with egg and gravy on it hurts my heart. But I'll say it again, it was good. A regular soda is $3.49. I REFUSE!!!! to ever pay that. But for a special occasion or maybe a girls brunch where you only for yourself it's doable.

Apparently their specialty coffee is only served iced, so the only option is regular brew. I opted out since I can do that at home. I really enjoyed the Morning Meditation fresh squeezed juice during my last visit but this location was out of ingredients and I was unable to get it. Water it is. For my meal I ordered the Biscuits & Gravy with eggs. I love how the gravy is made with turkey sausage. As a non pork eater I struggle to find places that serve non pork gravy and was so glad they had turkey sausage based gravy that I could devour. It comes with their seasoned potatoes but based on the reviews I decided to swap for grits. The biscuits & gravy were my favorite part of the meal. I wish it came with 2 instead of a side. I got my eggs scrambled. It was ok, typical container eggs. Next time I'll try fried hard eggs so I can have a real egg. The grits... they gave me the hard part that's usually found stuck to the bottom of the pan. Some parts were regular after I scraped the hard parts out. No flavor, I definitely needed to add salt & pepper. I'll be back for sure but will probably try to get the biscuits & gravy w/o a side.

And their tip machine doubles the recommended amount so for my $9 mimosa it generates a +$3 tip at 18 % but it should have been under $2. Just wanted to point that out too. I won't be back.
