Is it possible to fall in love with French toast?
Because that’s exactly what happened at Brekkie Café — and not just to us adults, but to our 10-year-old too, who declared, “This is the best French toast I’ve ever had.” And he’s right.
⭐ A Breakfast That’s Worth Every Penny
Yes, Brekkie is a bit pricier than your typical breakfast spot, but once the food arrives, it all makes sense. Everything — and I mean everything — was crafted with care, consistency, and quality ingredients. From the presentation to the very last bite, this was breakfast done right.
🍞 The French Toast — A Masterpiece
Fluffy on the inside, lightly crisped on the outside, served with a generous helping of butter and maple syrup — this dish alone earns a standing ovation.
🥓 Bacon & Sausage — Next-Level
The bacon was perfectly smoked, with just the right thickness and a great fat-to-meat ratio. But the breakfast sausage? In my opinion, the best I’ve ever had. Not over-spiced, just enough seasoning to highlight the flavor of the meat itself. Perfectly sized. Perfectly prepared.
🥔 Potatoes, Eggs & Coffee — Nothing Left Behind
Even the potatoes were a thoughtful touch — a beautiful mix of colors and types, all cooked to perfection. The eggs (sunny side up) had rich, orange yolks and were prepared with real skill.
Coffee? Delicious. I started with drip and cream on the side — smooth and satisfying. I later tried a latte, which wasn’t bad, but I found the milk overpowered the gentle bean profile. Honestly, the classic coffee with cream was the sweet spot. (If I could offer one gentle suggestion: maybe take another look at the milk or steaming process for the latte.)
☕ Service & Atmosphere
Heather, our server, was fantastic — kind, attentive, and made us feel at home, never rushed. Despite the full house, we waited only 5–10 minutes. The café itself is cozy, stylish, and welcoming. Plenty of parking, too.
