Thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast and experience. The breakfast was served hot and fresh and tasted amazing. It had special seasonings which made it unique. Our conversations with the staff were equally enjoyable. I would recommend to anyone.

What can you say, it's another Another Broken Egg! The food is always great and the drinks are too. Services was good and the waiting line app was helpful. I recommend the bloody Mary because it has the world's greatest meat... BACON!

Despite my original negative review, I've grown to accept and appreciate this place. It's baby friendly. I've taken my toddler there a few times, and the staff and patrons are generally quite understanding. Who knew punk rock, tattooed, tribal earring types were so baby friendly.Another Broken Egg Cafe.

One of my best breakfast experiences ever.The place was pleasant and the staff attentive.I was pleased none of the staff wore nametags.The food I ordered was very good.I thoroughly enjoyed the strong coffee and the sensible coffee cup size.I liked the simplicity of the decor and the separation of the different eating area.I ate at the bar. The stool was comfortable and the bar was well designed for eating a meal.The restaurant was well located in a pleasant shopping and eating area. Was easy to find and easy to exit.

Superb as always. Ordered Southwest scramble with city grits (has smoked Gouda cheese, bacon and chives), Vegetarian omlette, eggs Benedict and traditional breakfast with a pancake on the side. Everything was fresh, hot and delicious. They have a huge selection.

I was visiting my daughter in Orange Beach, AL this past weekend and she took me to this coffee shop for breakfast, first I got to say the place is adorable and cozy. It has a good vive and at the same time is super busy. I love it, its a small place but there food and drinks are delicious and its a place to visit if your in town.

Hands down, the best food I’ve ever eaten! The biscuits and gravy are to die for and the bananas foster pancakes 🤤🤤 it is so worth the money! We got two mimosas, beignets, French toast, pancakes, and eggs and a breakfast meat for $55. And I would have gladly payed more! It is a must eat if you are in the Gulf shores area

This is some of the best breakfast I've had... Ever, I think. I got the Creole Shrimp Benedict and it was amazing. I just wish I had more room for it. I could have easily split it with someone else. Their fruit was excellent as well, and I don't think the prices are outrageous.I will make this place our designation for breakfast every time in Orange Beach! Bonus points for being the cleanest place with the most COVID precautions of anywhere we've seen here.

I had the Special Sweet potatoe waffle w/cinnamon butter and pecans. Tasted like a wheat waffle and the Special butter didn't melt on.my waffle. Bacon is heavily smoked brand and crispy. Husband had biscuits and gravy, w/potatoes chunks and sausages. Left half of it uneaten. Just not top notch for the price. Going back to The Diner by the beach in Golf Shores. Service was good and staff was friendly.

I was very excited to go to Another Broken Egg Cafe on my last day at the beach. The Yelp sign outside the restaurant said to check in online. The app informed us that there was a 35 minute wait and 10 parties were ahead of us. After 30 mns we noticed we had not moved up on the list. I spoke to the host and he informed me that we needed to come inside to "activate" our Yelp reservation. I asked if there was a sign stating that we needed to do this and he said no. I then asked if we could be moved up the list since we had been waiting 30 plus minutes and he said no, and other people were waiting too. I asked to speak with a manager and she gave me the same information as the host and stated they would put up a sign so people knew to come in after checking in on yelp. I have visited this restaurant before and really enjoyed the food and service. I'm dissapointed the service was so poor this time. We did not Not the way eat at the restaurant and chose to eat elsewhere.

Homemade sausage is, all by itself, worth checking out. Hash browns were on point and crispy. Sausage gravy was 2 thumbs up. This was my first visit but I wouldn't hesitate to return. Excellent service as well.

We were told that it was going to be a 45min wait but it wasn't that long. Our waiter was super nice and always checked back with us. Our food came out quickly as well. The food was good. I had the crawfish bowl.Once we were seated we noticed why they give the long wait time. They are practicing social distancing and have all guests spread apart for added safety which was good!

Overall very good. I would rate it 5 but for me the food was a little on the heavier side. Probably because we are in South and I'm just not used to it.It all had good flavor. I had biscuits and gravy plate. Uniquely made dishes.The beignets are delicious.Service was great and very friendly. Server was Jennifer, very nice.People are very nice hear. Everyone likes the food.

Food was delicious and generous portions and service was wonderful from Summer aka Bacon. Hubby had the tomatillo bloody Mary and I had the salted caramel iced Irish coffee. Mine was better than his. He commented it was different but good. Give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed.

One of my first trips I took without telling my mom was to Orange County, and I fell in love with the city ever since. I have no shame being a tourist over there, but I also like finding the parks, local coffee shops, and art that is familiar with the locals.

The pancakes had an undone, doughy consistency, the sausage was way over seasoned, and area we sat at had a weird smell. You could tell the waitress that's served us was green but she was nice. Overall, poor experience.

Friendly and attentive staff. Tasty food. Recommend for a quick bite. Parking in the back. They have a variety of options on the menu, it is a kosher dairy restaurant so there's no meat. Been here several times and it's always been great.

What a pleasant experience! We were passing through town and googled this place. We were seated promptly and our waitress Lori overheard us saying we were first timers, which netted us some free warm beignets with powdered sugar. Delicious. I ordered the cinnamon roll French toast. It was a big portion with fresh blueberries, huge blackberries, and strawberries on top with whipped cream and a delicious syrup. The wife got biscuits and gravy and she couldn’t finish because of the large portion. She loved them nonetheless. Then the manager came over and gave us some coupons for the next visit. The waitress checked on us the perfect amount of times as well. It was a bit pricier than usual but worth it.
