This is one of the sister restaurants to the Speedway and Crystal Creek Cafe. I love having a consistent breakfast diner in the area. The staff were very friendly and attentive even during a very busy morning rush. I ordered the two egg breakfast and they allowed me to substitute fruit for the hash browns. This was a nice change of pace so I didn't get too carb loaded. Great food, good portions, and great service. read more

Paid $18.50 for an eggs benedict that was, frankly, unedible. Just two crunchy, dry halves of English muffin topped with mediocre poached eggs and a trace of Hollondaise. Yuk. Pancakes were awesome though. But the Benedict just ticked me off so much I can't bring myself to give anything other than a 1 star. read more

We visited on a Monday, for lunch, with a party of four, and it was a very nice experience. We were seated right away, the place was just about full at 1115, although it thinned out a bit. It is pretty much an old style diner. The waitress stopped by and took orders. We had The Sweet & Spicy Chicken Sandwich, Prime Rib Dip, Monte Cristo, and the Hot Turkey Sandwich with soup. Everything was excellent and the portions were huge. The service was great, the waitress kept up with refills and checked on us often. Overall, an outstanding little diner. read more

Busy brunch spot. Plenty of free parking in the lot but this place gets busy so we made sure to stop by after 1pm so we could get seated and not wait over 30 minutes in line. We waited 5 minutes on a Saturday around 1:15pm. The staff seemed stressed but were still efficient. The restaurant itself is beautiful. I enjoyed the bar seating they had and the nice decor like the bike on the wall. For food I was sooo excited to try the Almond Crunch French Toast as thats why I had this place bookmarked. Sadly it was a bit disappointing. The French toast was a bit burnt on the bottom and lacked the nutmeg or any sweetness or flavor the menu states it will have. Almonds I know will be a French toast that is on the less sweet side however it tastes so bland like where is the brown sugar or nutmeg? No nutmeg or brown sugar detected. My eggs over medium were made perfectly though and the sausage was good. For the prices being high and the food being standard I and the person I dined with agreed IHop or Dennys would've been cheaper and better or about the same quality food. Family Pancake House Redmond is my preference in Redmond still and the best cafe diner I've been to. This place is alright but nothing special. read more

Nothing you can complain about - except maybe insane wait times. We waited for 90 minutes for a table of 2. Highly recommend Egg Benedict. 4 star for food because the vegetables omlette probably had no salt at all. You can customise pancakes - really recommend trying simple pancakes with pecan. It was a new experiment and loved it. Our server was really sweet - she made a mistake of getting omlette with bacon but she got us a replacement like within 5 mins. Also gave us $5 off from check. read more

Superb brunch spot in Redmond! This is a local chain and each restaurant is decorated with a different theme. Lots of families and groups at this spot, creating a lively atmosphere. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I always struggle to choose between sweet vs savory. I went with the Triple Fruit French toast this time, but there were so many other options to try! Service was great even though the restaurant was very busy. Note that they may add auto gratuity for larger groups! read more

Great little old achool diner place. Extremely friendly staff and good coffee. I love how they have a half omellete version which is nicer than the full omellete option. Veggie omellete was great and the pancakes were not bad! Would highly recommend! read more

I called multiple times after they opened seeking info about allergies and dietary restrictions. I called four times--only twice was the phone answered after several minutes of ringing. The first time the phone was answered, they immediately hung up. And then the second time the phone was answered, they were acting like they were so busy they couldn't be bothered. I had a simple question. Do you guys have protocols regarding allergies? Some restaurants have specific pans or utensils that they use for people who have allergies or dietary restrictions and so I was hoping that I'd still be able to come and eat and have my food cooked in a separate pan. I didn't want to drive all the way over if I couldn't have my allergies accommodated. While I didn't make it over to actually eat anything I was disappointed in their service and the lack of professionalism. I guess the food would've been trash anyways. read more

Classic breakfast/brunch/lunch diner a plaza a little bit north of Redmond city center. Typical American diner type of decor. Mid size interior divided into a few sections. Very busy on a Sunday. They have an online waitlist that you can use so you don't have to wait at the restaurant as long. Menu has the usual like pancakes, eggs, burgers, sandwiches etc. I got the classic egg benedict and picked the pancakes for the sides (hash browns being the other choice). You can get a half portion or full portion. Full portion gets you the two muffins with ham and runny poached egg on top, with a healthy slathering of hollandaise sauce. Their sauce was pretty good, and so was the ham. Pretty good egg benedicts overall. Got 3 pieces of buttermilk pancakes which were pretty fluffy. Comes with creamy butter, and syrup which is warm and very watery, but was sweet enough. My friend got a half portion of the corned beef scramble, and it tasted decent and good amount of food for the "half" portion". Overall bill including tips was about $50, which is typical these days in the area. read more

Village Square Cafe - classic egg benedicts with buttermilk pancakes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redmond, Washington

Gorgeous decor, friendly service and yummy food, a perfect win! This place tends to be packed so make sure to join the waitlist ahead of time. The staff is generally able to accommodate any food swaps/ dietary restrictions which is a huge win! I got the California omelette and swapped the bacon out for broccoli! Omelettes come with a side of either hashbrowns or pancakes. If you're going in a group, I recommend at least one person getting the pancake side to share for the table! Portions for the pancake sides are generous! Also kid-friendly and comes equipped with crayons and coloring sheets! read more

We came here on a Wednesday morning and were seated right away. It gets crowded and a bit loud, but not distracting. Pros: -so many good menu options not found in other restaurants -food tastes great Cons: -our server took a very long time to help us with taking our order, refilling coffee, and giving our bill -closes at 3pm read more

Best brunch place in town! They can split the day lates in two for sharing. Join in the line through their website to avoid the long wait. The only pancakes are so great! It comes with fresh fruit and whipped cream. Also love the corn hash. Everything is delicious! read more

I had brunch here recently and loved it. I can't believe we missed this place all these years. I got a California Omelet with Pancakes on the side. The pancakes were recommended by our server and were so good. The omelet was good too. read more

I've been coming here when I'm in town for ages. The interior of the place is a little bit bland and not as cozy as I would like it to be but the breakfast here is some spot-on diner eats that can't be beat in the local area. First impressions here are likely to be O.K. There's not a lot of character to the design of the place, which appears to be a strategy because the Village Square Cafe is part of a small local chain that all have the same kind of vibe. But food and service are perfect for getting some morning grub. I've tried every form of omelette here and they're all very good. I usually prefer the ranchero because I'm a sucker for anything southwest. This also probably explains why I also enjoy the Migas here too. Good prep, good ingredients, very tasty. Also, if you order a side of fruit here they don't pack it full of melons but instead give you bananas, strawberries and blueberries - it's a little thing but this small touch goes a long way. Just a really nice and comforting breakfast place all around. Recommended! read more

This was some of the worst service I've ever experienced. Took +15 minutes for our server to greet the two of us after we had to ask someone for our server. Also, she helped the table that was sat 5 minutes after us first. Throughout the entire time eating, she did not check up on us once...yet she checked on the tables around us multiple times. Then after we finished eating we had to ask someone for our check because she seemed to avoid us for some reason. She didn't even ask if the food tasted good either. I would like to add that she made eye contact with us multiple times. Anyways, everyone else was great, and the food was too but the service from our server was not. I won't name drop, but I definitely will not be coming back. read more

The diner whole place is very cozy and traditionally styled. Service was direct and minimal. Not super welcoming for a first-timer, but we can't complain too much. The menu is very nice and has many Mexican breakfast dishes which I love. We went for the classic, diner-type breakfast. The Biscuits with Sausage gravy were a 3/5. The biscuits were dry and the sausage links both in the gravy and on the side were a little bland but good meat quality. Eggs were cooked to request. As for the eggs benedict, we enjoyed it! The sauce was creamy and smooth but we'd have preferred it to be a runnier egg. The avocado and fruits were fresh. read more

This is hands down my favorite spot in the city of Seattle. It feels like a nice quiet diner. The wait staff was doing their best to handle the rush and I think they did an amazing job.

Went here for lunch on a Monday holiday and it was really busy. My friend knew it was a popular spot so he put us on the online waitlist so we were seated in about 5 minutes after we got there, he had put us on the waitlist 30 minutes prior. It was a fun diner and the service was very nice and very fast, the food portions were really large and everything was pretty good. I enjoyed it! read more

We had been here a couple of months back on a weekend and it was jam packed with a long wait, so we returned for lunch on a weekday. It was pretty full for a weekday, and it is no surprise because the ambiance, food and service are all stellar! We ordered the California Benedict's and they are by far the best I have tried! Our server was courteous and prompt. The restaurant is clean and has a pleasing vibe with a few bicycles mounted on the wall and a lovely wall painting of Redmond. All in all a great experience for which we will no doubt be returning! Two thumbs up! read more

When you're in Redmond for three days and you have breakfast at the same place There must be something going right. We had excellent service great selection on the menu for both lunch and breakfast. The menu has items for vegetarian. I did not see anything vegan on the menu if you would like fruit instead of hashbrowns just ask the right toast is excellent homemade pumpkin pancakes. They listed fresh pies on the menu. I did not try them because breakfast was so large on day one I ordered a full order on day two and three we ordered half orders for breakfast. The restaurant also has cinnamon rolls for large rolls with frosting on top freshly made. they look great. My coffee cup was always filled. They do have tea and hot chocolate on the menu. You can sit at the counter if you'd like, you may want to make a reservation on weekends because it can't be a 20 to 30 minute wait. There's no actual place to wait inside the restaurant and it's cold outside. You'd like to minimize your wait. Reservations are online you may be able to call in advance. Parking is easy centrally located. They have multiple locations but all with a different name same menu though. read more

Service was very good. I give them a 4.5 but can't do that in the app. The food was good but not a wow for me. I picked the huevos and I think it wasn't the best choice. It was just okay. Pancakes my wife ordered was good. I would come back and try something else the next time read more

Came to Village Square for the first time ever. Boy was it crowded. So expect to wait at least an hour when you arrive. I was able to sit with my niece and we had breakfast at the counter which actually saved us wait time. The food was good hometown breakfast cooking. Thick bacon, great fluffy pancakes. They didn't really have any like diet syrup or sugar-free jam, which is often a challenge for me since I am all allergic to sugar. But overall, we had a good time eating there and people watching. Service was average, I wouldn't say anything special or over attentive. I think we got forgotten, even though we were sitting at the counter. But think of more diner feel so if you're looking for great service, don't come here. But if you're looking for good breakfast this is a spot Check out. read more

I've tried nearly all the sister restaurants (Issaquah, Woodinville, Saw Mill, and this one), and I had my worst experience here. First off, the waitlist time was inconsistent. It said 65 minutes, but we ended up waiting over 1.5 hour. When we finally met the host, she told us we'd get seated in 2 minutes, but it took another 15. It felt pointless to join the waitlist when people who arrived after us were seated before us. The server kept saying "2 minutes" to everyone waiting, which created unrealistic expectations. We ordered an omelette, pancakes, and hash browns. We prefer to order one full dish and split it, rather than paying extra for a half portion. However, the server kept pushing us to get the split option for "better value." The pancakes were the highlight, and the food was good overall. Unfortunately, the poor service really detracted from our experience. I won't be returning to this location. After trying them all, my favorite remains the Issaquah Cafe, where the service and food were much better. read more

This is one of their handful of locations on the Eastside. All of the locations are consistent in their great customer service, and amazing food, which is delivered quickly. They offer breakfast and lunch, and there is something that everyone will enjoy. Everything I have had there is very good and there are many options for people that are gluten-free and dairy-free like myself. My favorite and the favorite of many of my friends is the scramble. You get a list of items to pick from in which will be scrambled in with eggs and hashbrowns. You can keep it at that or you can complete the meal with toast or pancakes. They do have gluten-free buckwheat pancakes!! But sadly they do not have gluten-free toast. Warning - this scramble is addicting!! Food is great! Service is great! So exoect a wait! (I rhymed!). read more

This is my wife and I's favorite breakfast/diner spot. Every time we go it's like a step into the past where you had a neighborhood diner in walking distance and it's so cozy and relaxing being there. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. I've had most of waffles and pancakes etc. but my favorite is the blueberry lemon pancakes--so good. Unlimited refreshes of coffee, and everything tastes great. read more

After checking the Yelp reviews, I decided to stop by here for brunch! We arrived around 10 and were seated quickly. While there was plenty of seating, I can see how this place gets crowded. I also liked how this place resembled a diner! For my meal, I decided to go with the make your own omelette and chose spinach, onions, chicken sausage and pepper jack cheese. It also came with it a side of toast (5 choices) and hash browns. Everything was very delicious and our food came out super quickly! I also didn't realize this place was a chain, and they have quite a few more in the area. read more

Visited this place for the first time today...it was a good experience. Lots of people there , food was yummy, service was just the right amount. Not too evasive but attentive enough to see if we needed something. Portions were large and you won't leave hungry. I recommend giving this place a try. If I am in Redmond again, I know I will. Most of the group I was with got the corn beef hash, and their plates were bare by the time they left. read more

One liner: delicious diner food with relaxed service and not pricey: $30 for two people. This is my favorite diner in the local area. It is a delightful way to start a weekend or a Sunday with comfort food, cozy ambience and a friendly staff. While everything on their menu is great, I specifically love their almond crunch french toast and the scrambles they have to offer. Their huevos rancheros is also a personal favorite. The potions are also quite big so I'd suggest getting the half potions if you're not particularly hungry. The service is a bit slow, or may be the right word is 'relaxed' so don't go if you're in a hurry. There is seating at the bar or inside booths and sometimes outdoor seating as well when the weather is good. Parking is never a problem since it's in redmond. :) PS: their coffee (brewed) is great too especially with hazelnut creamer! read more

Old school diner type spot with an expansive menu. Went around 11 AM on a Friday and got a table right away. I tried the corned beef hash half order with a biscuit and gravy ($17 after tax and tip - maybe they charged me for the full on accident?). The biscuit was large and fluffy and the gravy was hearty and savoury. It definitely was a stick-to-my-ribs type of meal. The corned beef was chunked and the hash was pretty oily. Portions are great and the staff is also attentive/kind. read more
