As someone born and raised on the Capitol Heights/Seat Pleasant line (literally--the street I lived on kept getting rezoned), I'm a little embarrassed to admit this was my first time trying White Corner. It's one of those staple spots where if you haven't been, people will definitely question where you're really from. I ordered takeout on a Monday: * Half smoke with sunny side up eggs and French toast for me * Turkey bacon sandwich with home fries for bae * Scrambled eggs, corned beef hash, and home fries for my father The food was ready quickly and affordable--which is rare these days. When my partner walked in with a vanilla wafers box, I was confused... until I opened it and saw everything served on paper plates, wrapped in foil. It gave full-on "you better not mess up grandma's dishes" energy--and I loved it. That first bite of the half smoke brought me straight back to my childhood. It tasted just like the kind my grandpa used to send my mom from Savannah, GA. No frills, no fancy presentation, just real food made with love. The portion sizes weren't oversized, but you get exactly what's described on the menu. If you have a bigger appetite, I'd recommend adding a side. Still, it's a solid, classic breakfast that doesn't break the bank. This is the kind of spot that makes you feel like home--simple, satisfying, and rooted in the community. I'm already plotting my next order. read more

. This place is a classic in the community but im disappointed stopped in Saturday morning & first thing is no bags & no takeout containers . Food was on a plate in a box .I ordered French toast, potatoes & eckrich sausage. I got bread slices smashed made into French toast I guess , hot dog as my sausage & potatoes was red like ketchup was already mixed & very soggy. Y'all fell off bad . close down & reopen once y'all got it together. Need a new cook yesterday read more

I love it here. The food is amazing and the customer service is great! I definitely recommend this place to anyone who looking for home cooked meals. read more

This is my go to place for home cooked breakfast. You don't have to wait long for your food or if you call ahead of time it's ready for you to pick it up. You can't dine in, you have to take your food to go. The staff is friendly, as I have been going here for years. The parking is street parking but it's not hard to find parking. I really like how quick I get my food. I always get pancakes, bacon, home fries, and eckridge sausage and it is amazing every time. If you want home cooked breakfast, come here. read more

White Corner - The outside of the restaurant - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

I FINALLY caught this little spot while it was open and decided to check it out. It was flowing with customers there for the breakfast only menu. The open concept allows you to see literally everything. The staff was polite and food is made to go on a paper plate, wrapped with foil. I don't know why I found this to be cute lol I ordered the veggie omelet with home fries. The omelet was good but lacked seasoning and I didn't ask for cheese (I will next time). The home fries were sweet... Not sure what that was about but I'd go back. I asked an employee about their business hours and was told they are open Mon - Sat 630A-130P. read more

Food is always good, especially the breakfast sandwiches. I wish they were open on Sundays and still had sit-in dining seating but that hasn't been since Covid. Family owned for a long time. Hightly recommended. read more

A gem for "Comfort Food". This is the kind of breakfast spot where the aroma of warmed bread instantly whets your appetite. Simple, homestyle goodness served up in a no-frills, carry-out setting. read more

This place always hittin and stickin!! Old lingo I got from my auntie when something is on point! Same owners, same recipes, same spot, same good prices, same fast service!! You can call ahead or order when you get there, takeout only, let me tell you them pancakes, scrapple, steak, eggs with cheese, grits with cheese, even the regular toast is good!! They put the butter on for you while the toast is hot! Trust me this place has never disappointed me in the last 25+ years! read more

A solid hole in the wall type of breakfast spot. Food is always warm and good. Could use some salt, but maybe that is personal preference.

Food is always great here! I get my food and it's just as I ask it for. It is well done and to perfection most of the time when I do go to eat here. It is always what a person ways and how the food should be fully prepared and cooked! read more

first approach of you're not used to it being the area its in is a bit "sketchy". you walk up && there are some ol g's sitting out front. then you go inside && its all fenced. you are greeted by the women in the back askin what you like then you just wait. we waited outside because it was nice out && just to admire old dc. ita steady busy the entire time! folks coming in && out or picking up togo orders. the food us bomb! plus its quick ! i did learn that next time i need to ask for salt && pepper on my omelette. will be going back for sure! read more

Very good food reasonable rates No indoor seating anymore Very nice staff and face service read more

I love this hole in the wall breakfast place . The food is good to my soul because it's authentic . It reminds me of Saturday and Sunday mornings waking up in my grandparents home with the smell of breakfast . This place is also convenient . It's 2 blocks from my office . Ever since the pandemic you will have to wait in line, order, grab and go. The indoor dining is eliminated but that's okay. I can eat my breakfast right in my office . The parking is challenging because every is coming for breakfast . I give this place 4 stars ONLY because my Boujie tale prefers croissants over toast . Lol If White Corner had croissants, I would give them 5 stars . This is the best hole in the wall " hood" spot I've ever been too ! read more

My friend asked if I was hungry and he knows that I love breakfast food so he was like we'll stop here for breakfast. Upon walking up I was praying that the food was as good as the other Yelp reviews and was pleasantly surprised. The reviews didn't disappoint...my main meal option is french toast, cheese eggs and bacon w/ a fruit punch...it's so good, I can go meatless! My friend always opts for 2 turkey sausage with cheese sandwiches...he tears them up, lol I have tried their pancakes and was not impressed, so I'll stick with the French toast, but judge for yourself! I do wish they had salmon cakes though...maybe I'll suggest it the next time I'm there. read more

Real good, cheap and quick breakfast. Something to grab on the way to work in the AM.

This is going to be one of those places that not too many people will go to because certain people may consider it to be in a "sketchy" area. I am still trying to figure out what that means as some people seem to lock up and are at a loss for words when I ask them to define what makes a neighborhood "sketchy". Anyway. I decided to try this place out one morning since it was only about five minutes from where I worked when my job took me to the Federal Center in Washington DC. It is actually one of a few places in this area that serves up really good food (Pimentos, Seafood Market Deli) in the Coral Hills/Penn Branch/Benning Ridge neighborhoods. I decided to go with takeout on this day. As I waited in the place looking at the menu you can either go with one of their numbered specials or choose your own combinations. I could tell that there were the usual locals in here as many people were coming in and the cashier was calling out their orders or just saying "the same" to them. I decide to go with one of their meals and added a side of scrapple to it. In the end I had eggs, a half smoke, French toast, home style potatoes, and scrapple. Yes, I am sure your arteries are hardening as mines were that day. Still it was so good. Even though I took it to go it was still warm once I got to my destination. There is always a heavy rotation of customers so so your food will always come out hot and just cooked. This place will not win any awards on presentation but what it lacks on appearance it makes up on that local neighborhood store good food and appeal. Prices are very reasonable and you can even pick up the newest movie releases from the lady in the corner. A good breakfast spot in this area of DC to try out. It is almost an experience in itself. Parking can be tight as it is all street parking in a mixture of houses and businesses. read more

My food was over priced for the quality I got. I went on 5/20/2022,The grits were good and the corned beef hash was ok. The fried potatoes had an off putting sweet taste, I don't know what it was but I couldn't eat it after 2 bites. I ordered the t-bone and it was grey, seemed like it was steamed and so thin. I've never had a steak like that. I told them I also couldn't eat eggs and if I could substitute the potatoes for the eggs. The man who took my order said yes. I also order a side of corned beef hash and when I go to pay the LADY at the front charged me extra for the corned beef stating I can only get one or the other with my meal. No matter what I said and told her to ask the man she wouldn't and I realized after I paid when I went to look at the menu to see why it was so high. She wouldn't give me my money back and continued to argue with me until I walked out! This places food is not worth it at all and here's a picture of my GREY STEAK SMFH! The texture of the steak was horrible and under seasoned and not seared at all, more like boiled or steamed! read more

White Corner - T-bone steak that's grey, steamed and not seasoned. It's so thin and nasty the texture is off - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

Been eating at this spot since the 90s. If you from out of town and want a authentic DC experience then look no further. Great spot for a no frills breakfast that sticks to your ribs. Do not be concerned with the area, because it is completely safe and filled with working class people who want to eat well. Again, a good breakfast spot if you in DC and dont want to go to a chain. read more

I HAVE FOUND MY BREAKFAST SPOT! White Corner Restaurant has been around for about 28 years. This neighborhood gem serves up a nice selection of delicious breakfast and some lunch items (such as egg platters, omelette platters, hot cakes/french toasts, sides, sandwiches, and beverages), focusing on making most from scratch and in-house and offering a no-nonsense, tasty meal. The hubs and I came here for brunch, and we ordered: a Golden Brown Buttermilk plate with two eggs and sausage (the buttermilk pancakes were fluffy and tasty, definitely a nice golden brown, served with a nice pat of melted butter, and nice bottle of sweet syrup to squeeze to your heart's content; the eggs were the most delicious and the most fluffiest eggs ever - we chose the scrambled style, and it was so creamy and delicious, and I highly suggest in adding in the cheese!!!; the sausage links were super tasty - deliciously grilled and had a nice snap - YUM!); French Toast with two eggs and bacon (the French Toast were battered perfectly and wasn't overly sweet; came with a nice pat of melted butter and great with the syrup; the eggs, we opted for scrambled, and again, super delicious! Bacon was super crisp and yummy!); a side of home fries (made in-house, I usually like mine extra crispy, but these were definitely different than what I'm used to - it tasted like it was a mix with sweet potatoes - a little sweet and more of a healthier version!); and, a cup of their Fruit Punch (not too sweet and refreshing). There were counter seating and some booth seating, and you can even do carry-out orders. The place itself is small and is no frills and dive-y - LOVE IT! The owners, Mr. and Mrs. Jeon, are both super sweet and were really welcoming :D The place was totally hopping, and you can tell that this is a favorite among the locals. Can't wait to get my breakfast on again and again and again at White Corner - check this place out! You won't be disappointed :D :D :D +super delicious breakfasts :D +super sweet owners and staff :D +limited free street parking on Southern read more

White Corner - Bacon and egg omelette with plastic that was found. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

I give them four stars even though it's not an extravagant experience, but the food is consistently tasty, they have excellent customer service as well and prices are on point, I just suggest that if you want grits get them on the side and when you go try to go early, the closer to closing the less quality, I went after one o'clock and for the first time my eggs had shells in them and were not cooked to order but overall this is my go to for a simple good breakfast. read more

Been going here since i was a little girl breakfast is always good here. I love everything

I am so upset with myself, I lived on 46th st back in the day for about 3 years of my life and never once paid attention to white corner. Pimento, liquor store, the men who be grillin in the vacant lot, even the former HOBO shop, but never white corner. I mean I literally drive past this place all the time and had no idea it was an actual establishment. As we said growin up "gimme neck, no fitty." So anyway, I intentionally came to white corner one morning after several twitter recommendations and for the first time I saw it open. It does not look inviting at all on the outside, but warm environment inside for sure. The staff is pleasant and it kind of reminds me of a barbershop. Ya know a bunch of people, especially men, hanging around talking trash and someone selling CD's. .......................Yall...........I came in during a Trump, Dallas versus Redskins, and "one drop rule" debate. I don't know how the heck people were able to merge those three topics in one conversation, but it happened. *cringes* Anyway, they bootleg as a mug giving us carryout in costco type boxes w/ paper plates wrapped in foil like we leaving a potluck lmao. I aint mad at them, cut them cost boo. Oh, the food. It was good, I'd go back. It's fast, inexpensive, and better than your Mickey d's, ihop type options for sure. read more

Clean place, friendly staff, good food, short wait. I can't say more. I rode pass this place numerous times and finally decided to stop by. The place is very clean despite how the outside may look. I got my food really quick and it was good. read more

This place is usually crowded and hard to get a seat especially because of the size of the place and limited seating area. But it's a very popular spot and you have to find street parking first. It's like a mom and pop breakfast spot. Food was good. French toast eggs bacon and sausage were ordered. Took a little while because of the many people in there ordering but the taste of the food and reasonable prices was worth it for a quick breakfast. read more

I used to love this place, Even started to take my granddaughter there. However two unsanitary events changed all that. Kim , one of the cooks dropped a sandwich on the floor. She picked it up, wrapped it in wax paper, and placed it in the box for customer pick up. I called her by name when I saw that happen. She looked at me, smiled and put one finger in front of her lips. Simulating don't say anything. Months later Kim was coughing openly in the cooking area . Then she bent over and coughed on the toppings, i.e. onion, tomato, and pickle slices. That was it for me. read more

Breakfast is probably the meal I do best at home, so it's RARE that I ever purchase breakfast, much less, leave out of my own house to get some. Anyhow, I got really lazy one morning and didn't have any breakfast food in my house. White Corner has been on my list to try. Hole in the wall place, but decent. Very informal...I couldn't even find the register. A very chill environment. I got sausage, 2 scrambled eggs, and pancakes. Everything was cooked well, textbook, I'd say. I should have asked for cheese eggs and black pepper. I definitely enjoyed my meal, but my socks were not knocked off. It probably has more to do with the breakfast ceiling than their actual performance. Value wise, it's good to know that I have a quality breakfast diner nearby. read more

This is my new favorite breakfast spot! I've been ordering the pancake platter with bacon and scrambled eggs with cheese. I also normally order my husband a bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich.

I had the opportunity to eat at White Corner this past weekend for breakfast. I haven't been to this restaurant in 30 years and even though the owners are not the same, the food sure is. Great home style american cooking coming off a highly seasoned grill. The restaurant was packed and the owners Gene and his wife are hard working folks who clearly know how to keep their customers happy. I had a BLT with hash browns and boy did that bring back memories...I should have ordered two since I don't get to this part of town often. If you are anywhere nearby, go, you won't be sorry. read more

I've been going to this place since I was 15 and I'm 31 now and everything is still the same. The place is small but that brings the customers closer together. I love the french toast platter and the eggs are always soft and fluffy. There's no better place for breakfast than White Corner. Highly recommend over any place I've ever been to in my life. And don't forget to try the fruit punch/ lemonade mix.... Guaranteed to wake you up! read more
