Joey's Café

Excellent food and service! Absolutely perfect breakfast. Hot, delicious, HUGE portions. The best chai tea latte I've ever had it - it puts Starbucks to shame. The meal was esthetically a work of art (see photo). The menu said two eggs, but it looked like five. Great French toast - better than I can make myself. Needless to say, I highly recommend Joey's Cafe!

They sell Green Eggs and Ham! Believe it or not! It’s an incredible dish too! They scramble pesto with eggs and give you a few slices of delicious ham and some fruit too! Loved it! Had an iced latte as well and it did not disappoint! Their chilaquiles are amazing too and not overly spicy! I highly recommend Joey’s! I enjoyed the service. Simple good service. The restaurant is a gem in WeHo which can often be over the top. People here seem to be chill. Grab a seat by the windows and watch the beautiful over the top people walk by! Great people watching! Speaking of over the top - the prices here aren’t. Food is great and reasonably priced here! The restaurant has a nice minimalist look to it. Meter parking.

The food was meh, nothing too crazy. Breakfast potatoes are different but not good different. I thought they needed a bit more on the grill. It was ok

Excellent brunch spot with a well designed menu. Joey's breakfast is a winner, can't go wrong with that. Attentive and professional staff. I had the crab cake benedict, which I wouldn't recommend because the hollandaise sauce was meh and the crab cakes could be better, but the roasted potatoes were really good. Will return for their other breakfast menu items, especially the omelettes!

Very nice place with comfy sitting inside plus tables outside. Staff was very nice and helpful with offering vegetarian alternatives. Breakfast was great. Would come again if we were from here

Excellent service and good was great. Waiter Pedro was very kind

Great breakfast / brunch spot in West Hollywood. Outdoor seating with attentive, fast, efficient service. Reasonably priced with a good selection of breakfast / brunch options. I had Florentine Benedict and added bacon, delicious. Went back the next day and had the breakfast quesadilla which was tasty and a perfect sized portion for me. Can't wait to go back the next time I'm in West Hollywood .Recommend . PS buttermilk pancakes good but nothing special, generic , possibly pancake mix .

It has such a nice atmosphere, and the interior design and architecture are amazing! There's indoor and outdoor seating as well, and it was super easy to find an area for two during brunch/ lunch hour! The service was soooo nice and quick!! And the presentation of the drinks was absolutely beautiful and so elegant with such a lovely, memorable flavor to match!! And we just HAD to take some sides to go!! It's really close to a lot of cool spots in WeHo, like thrift stores and clubs, so definitely a super fun, convenient spot to treat yourself when spending the day out!!

Another place that I've walked by hundreds of time but never been in. Finally, I stopped by as someone was waiting for me to finish my appointment. It's a cute little cafe with a decent amount of seating outside. It's off Santa Monica Blvd so it's a good place for people watching. They have a parking lot in the back with limited spaces as it share it with other businesses. Street parking is available in the neighborhood and metered parking. The restaurant itself isn't overly big but a decent size. Like mentioned, a good amount of seating outside which is covered with umbrellas. Inside, that's where it's more of a cafe vibe. You have the bar counter area and all the booths. A cool vintage vibe type of place. I didn't get anything to eat but just a drink. But the menu does look great. There's pretty much everything on the menu. Sandwiches, salads, breakfast and so on. A latte was also ordered which was said to be quite nice. Overall, just from the quick experience it was pretty chill and nice. Personally I like the outdoor versus inside as it's great for people watching and basically LA. You want to be outdoor enjoying the weather. I need to come back and actually try some things off the menu.

We always go to Joey's when we visit our daughter. The food is really good, the menu has something for everyone, the atmosphere is casual and comfortable, ambiance is so nice. This time we went for breakfast and had our dog with us. There was no problem having her on the patio. Pedro, our waiter, was attentive to us and our pup. Many staff members have been there for 20 years our more - that really says something for a dining establishment. I had a two-egg scramble with fruit that was so fresh delicious. Our daughter had lemon-ricotta pancakes that were SO GOOD! My husband had steak and eggs. We all left satisfied and, of course, we'll be back.

A Perfect Breakfast Spot - and Our Third Visit! We had such a fantastic breakfast experience at this coffee shop -- it's actually our third time here today, and that says it all! I built my own omelet with mushrooms, spinach, and feta -- it was fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. The coffee was smooth and delicious, with friendly refills offered without even asking. The fruit on the side was fresh and added a nice touch. A standout was the egg sandwich -- it looked so good in the photo my friend took, and somehow tasted even better. Everything we tried was clearly made with care. The staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive every time we came in, and the atmosphere is cozy and relaxed -- the kind of place you instantly feel comfortable in. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food, great service, and a place you'll want to keep coming back to -- clearly, we couldn't stay away!

I've been eating here for years and it's pretty consistent. Minus one or two times, I've pretty much have had a positive experience here. Today I had breakfast with two friends. We each had something different and we all loved our food. See pictures. The breakfast portions are generous, fresh, and flavorful. I generally just order breakfast items when I'm here regardless of the time of day. Today's breakfast was delicious as always and very filling. You definitely get your money's worth at Joey's. The three of us left pleased. The service is generally fast, attentive, and always friendly. They have both indoor and outdoor dining. There are two outdoor patios. Weekends are generally busy. Free parking behind the building during business hours.

Very nice spot. Simple, effective, and comfortable. Decent selection; got a smoothie and it was very tasty. Street parking in the area is typically spotty as befits West Hollywood. Service seemed friendly!

I've been here twice and the food is not memorable. Which isn't a bad thing. I got the free eggs and ham and the ham was a bit chewier than I'm expecting like it tasted really processed. The eggs were decent since it was mixed in with some pesto and the potatoes were done well. If you're nearby I would recommend checking it out but the food isn't to rave home about but it's also not bad. Service is also quick but can be slow if you sit outside where they may not see you outside.

Solid little diner in WeHo. One of the only ones open on a Sunday morning at 8am (surprisingly). Menu has a good range of options with something for everyone, herbivores to carnivores

The cutest little diner in WeHo! I came with friends for a late lunch, the portions were huge! Great value for the price and our server was so kind and attentive. He messed up the bill when we split it, but he fixed it right away. Will definitely come back!

Came in to have a place to sit and also low key price compare to Gelsons. Can't believe Gelsons charges for a full price meal for grocery deli food. I couldn't find anything less than fifteen bucks for lunch there, so was like I may as well sit down and have something while I wait for Crossroads to tell me my clothes aren't good enough to buy. Good prompt service and their prices are typical for the area. I just had coffee this time around but not opposed to coming back. They're only open til lunch and close early. If I didn't just get a text message saying I'm cut from work today I would've had something.

We had a really delicious breakfast on this rainy Saturday morning. I would say it's one of the better breakfast options in West Hollywood. It's a true classic diner that has a lot of indoor and outdoor seating. They have a large free parking lot behind the restaurant so parking is really easy. Service was a bit slow for us today, but the food items arrived fairly quickly after ordering once we were able to. They have a fairly large menu filled with all the classic diner options. Today I chose the Crab Cake Benedict and was really satisfied with it. The cake had a great crab flavor to them and were really crispy. I added avocado, which I would highly recommend doing with this dish. I wish they would have hashbrowns as an option because the breakfast potatoes aren't nearly as good but that is a personal preference. The portion sizes are fairly large here so you will not leave hungry. I would recommend to anyone searching for a great breakfast or brunch option in West Hollywood. I plan to be back in the future to try more items.

I'm really disappointed in this cafe because it's in my neighborhood and there are very limited options within walking distance. As you can see in the photo, the French toast was completely burnt and inedible, and the eggs scrambled that I got was swimming in oil -- just completely unappetizing, the whole thing. I didn't go back to return it because I have a baby and he had just fallen asleep when I got home, so I didn't want to disturb him. I had to throw the whole thing away. Wish I had a better experience. Not sure if this was a one-off or just how they are, but it's never busy so that's not a good sign.

The place was really nice, decent food, nice decor. The service was very kind, defensively worth a stop.

Great food! Quick friendly service. Very comfortable atmosphere. Consistently delivers a wonderful experience.

Joey's Cafe is a gem! Went here unexpectedly after our initial reservation elsewhere got cancelled. There is seating indoors and outdoors, and it was fairly busy for a Saturday afternoon. The service was good, as the servers were attentive, but also gave us some time to browse the menu at our leisure. The ambiance was busy and diner-like, with some tables and some booths. Food was good! The iced matcha latte and chai latte were yummy, and we got to take them to-go too, which was nice, because they were actually bigger than expected (which is a nice surprise). Joey's Breakfast was a good portion, and I loved the whipped butter on the side. I also appreciated having the fruit addition and the options for the side of meat and bread. Overall, this was an unexpected meal, but so happy that we got to try it and we will definitely come back!

I love this place! They have Indoor and outdoor seating for everyone to enjoy. It's hands down my favorite spot to go meet friends for lunch or breakfast. It's a shame that their hours are so limited now. Highly recommend the steak chesadilla! It's so good and always hits the spot. It's a must visit if you are in West Hollywood.

Met up on Saturday afternoon with my friends from the desert at their suggestion. I had not been to West Hollywood in ages and reveled in all the changes. Joeys is on a corner of Santa Monica Blvd next to a "Crossroads" store. They had several tables available outside and inside. You can also sit on a swiveling barstool at the counter if that suits your fancy! It wasn't too busy at 2:30pm so we were able to grab a nice big table outside. The service was good. *Plenty of free refills on our lemonade, ice tea and my Arnold Palmer!!! Great view to watch everyone pass by. (Which I love to do). The salmon salad and protein salad were good. Big servings here at reasonable prices. They are known for their breakfast and lunch. Conveniently located across from another one of my fav places! Hamburger Mary's!!! Best drag bingo in town. *plenty of meter parking *limited parking on side streets. READ THE SIGNS CAREFULLY to avoid a ticket. *there is a parking lot behind Joeys if you can grab a space. They share it with Crossroads.

On the plus side, there was no wait at all on a Saturday at prime brunch time! Then I guess I could see why. I stopped in at Joey's because a friend was eating there so I just joined for a coffee and a pastry. I asked for a dirty chai with soy milk, which came out to $7.95. It was huge and gross. I also got a croissant to go with it, which looked and tasted like a 3 day old Costco croissant. Oddly, it was cut in half and toasted so it was dry and tasteless. Everything about this place is below par and expensive. To top it all off, we got the bill and after taking a look to split our tab, realized that the subtotal was $2 off the itemized cost and did not match what we were charged.

Our go to sunday brunch after church in West Hollywood. All of the staffs are consistent in providing exceptional service, the food is awesome!

A place I'm going to return to try the omelette and pancakes . They look so delicious when I saw it pass by and I want to give it a try when I'm there next time. However today I've tried the chicken Finger followed by a California Burger and Turkey Club . It was massively big but for the price I can see why now but it was delicious the French fries were fresh! You have the option to sit inside or out . Perfect since summer is here ! There was no waiting since I went early In the day and the service was amazing they were fast, is like they read the room if anyone wants something. Lots of regulars come here by the looks of it ! I'm looking forward to trying it again!

Joey's has large portions and the friendliest staff! I always get the lemon ricotta pancakes

Joey's is my favorite little neighborhood diner. It's a perfect place for that All American breakfast that feels like it's made with love. T They have fantastic smoothies with all kinds of fruit flavors and in combinations of fruit flavors. I just love it. Having a salad there @ midday is also quite good. Their salads are both hearty and tasty for sure. From the outside you'd never know that there's so much delicious goodness to be found inside, because it really is a rather unassuming place, but as I said, as far as a neighborhood diner, it's my favorite neighborhood. P.S. To be clear, remember that the "neighborhood" that I'm referring to is West Hollywood and so know that the bar is high.

I came here during the WeHo Pride Parade last week, and even with how busy it was, I really enjoyed it. The service was fast and the atmosphere was great. The servers were really nice despite being slammed with parade-goers coming in and out. I decided to stop by again today where it's less busy. It was very homey and the food was great. I would recommend coming here on a less busy day, but overall a 10/10

"Fruit or Potatoes?" Man, Joey's is OUR SPOT. We've been going there for years, after hikes, after colonoscopies (true story), and to catch up with old friends... I absolutely adore our morning server who always asks his perfectly pitched and crafted catchphrase: "Fruit... or potatoes?" - Hearing it is like hearing your favorite actor say that line from that movie. I may be obsessed. BUT the food is great. Nothing trying to be overly fancy or overly gluten carb vegan pronoun free. Just good ol' fashioned delicious, great portion breakfast.

Service was okay. Food was honestly not the best and I hated that! Their Caesar salad had carrots and cabbage in it which isn't authentic Caesar. I had the burger (7/10 - felt really bloated after). The fries I could tell were either frozen or cold before hand. Wanted to like this place but I didn't sadly

I visited this spot on the very last day of outdoor dining before the new pandemic restrictions kicked in. They make a fantastic "Joey's Cobb Salad" that I used to order all the time. I'm happy to say it's just as good as ever. Especially if you like bacon! Normally, with an outside table you get a great view of Santa Monica Blvd. and all the happenings and things going around there. The take out is also easy and convenient. I always seem to be able to find parking on the street but there's a free indoor city lot nearby on Flores.

Neighborhood place for all day dining but went here for brunch/breakfast. Friendly staff, a tad bit slow but i think that's just them being casual not like terribly tardy or anything. Food portions are good, not too greasy, old school interiors but have indoor and outdoor seating. Parking in the street. Liked that they had turkey beef and chicken options instead of bacon so that's a win!

While staying with a friend down the street from Joey's Café we would often come here for lunch/dinner meal. Coming in, this place truly fits the NYC scene I loved the vibe of this spot. Our waiter Jerry was the greatest waiter on the planet. He was very attentive as soon as we walked in the door. Jerry made sure to get our drinks to the table while we were still deciding on what to order, and always refilled our ice teas without having to ask him. We ordered many items but our favorites were the French Onion Burger, Chinese Chicken Salad, Caesar Salad, and Beef Strongnoff. Jerry made sure our food was made to order and everything was hot. Definitely recommend this place if you're in the area.

There's a reason why we never stopped here for dinner after living in the area for 6 years. The penne Arrabiata was a bowl full of mush. Tasted like a store bought jar sauce and was over salted. The soup of the day was a corn tortilla soup and we didn't even go for a second spoonful. Tasted like it was made a week before, the cilantro in the soup was so wilted and the amount of salt that was added was just not ingestible. The only fresh thing in the soup was the chopped avocado's. The quinoa, kale & chicken salad was okay till we mixed the dressing into it...eewhh So disappointing as we do buy their breakfast sandwiches here on a regular basis and it tastes okay.

We've had their breakfast several times and it's decent. However, today I decided to try their entree salad for lunch and was a little dissatisfied. Considering it was a little over $16, the chicken was extremely dry, so much so that I couldn't finish it. The tuna salad had no seasoning or very little. The balsamic vinaigrette was generic and nothing exciting. This may have been more acceptable if it were just a side salad, but for an entree salad they have to do better. It definitely looked better than it tasted, unfortunately!

A full Los Angeles, hearty breakfast... but even at halcyon, dead hours, you're order might carry-on longer than anticipated. So be prepared to wait upwards of 15-30 minutes. I ordered an egg-bacon sandwich with rustic, small/red roasted-potatoes (dinner-style), but without the rosemary. It had an idyllic/pan-skillet type of crusted garnish. The Egg/bacon sandwich had a very grainy, thicker slice. More generous portions than its competitors. Half a sandwich will do the job. I am a fan, minus the wait time.

Now I have a place to go for Breakfast for my monthly trips to LA. The Breakfast Quesadilla is excellent!!

These people have treated me oddly for years. I've had injuries that have made my speech, appearance and mannerisms challenging, and I've caught some of them snickering and laughing at me out of the corner of my eye. Now I'm finding rocks in my food. Not cool.

Great spot for breakfast. I've seen how busy Joey's can get on the weekends, so I guess that's why I've always avoided it. I finally had breakfast with a friend here during the week. It was a slow Wednesday morning. Service was very fast and friendly. I had the Breakfast burrito with a side of fruit. Highly recommend the burrito! While it could have been 2 separate meals, my fat self ate it all in one sitting. Opps! Private parking behind the restaurant. This is hard to find in West Hollywood. Metered parking along Santa Monica Blvd.

Ordered an avocado bacon cheese omelette. Came without avocado, was beyond dry (way over cooked), and the rye toast was not toasted but was so stale it was inedible. So disappointing. The lemonade was ok, and the service was good. Also thought the red potatoes were ok but needed seasoning. We saw a decent amount of customers so we gave it a try. Big mistake.

The food was pretty bad. Had the fired chicken sandwich and an egg breakfast sandwich. Service wasn't great either.

Cute little cafe spot! IT gives diner vibes with the booths. My partner and I got an omelette and a smoothie. The omelette was large and had a lot to it. The service of the place was great! Super friendly people. I recommend trying this place!

Great Burger, Amazing Customer service , Love the French fries all in all Great Spot to Have lunch Thank You

Food is good and portions a large so make sure you are HUNGRY. Great service and friendly staff.

HAIR IN FOOD This just sucks that I have to write this review. Joey's Cafe has always been a go-to neighborhood brunch spot. Today, I ordered pick-up (two Joey's Breakfasts), drove and got the food, and then while we were eating my husband found a long black hair on his sliced banana. That's the moment where you just stare at each other and don't know what to do - keep eating? Throw it all away? I scooped up the banana with a napkin and decided to just return to Joey's to show the staff. When I got there I made sure to reveal the hair as quietly and discreetly as possible - out of respect because sure, these things happen. The guy at the counter however....told me there was NOTHING HE COULD DO ABOUT IT because the manager left for the day. And then he said that it was strange since the cook DOES NOT HAVE LONG HAIR. Are you freaking kidding me?! I drove all the way back to the restaurant hoping to just get a simple refund and then this crap? I asked the guy to call the manager then, but he did not want to do that. He said I could come back the next morning and I'm like - no I'm not coming back AGAIN. Look, this wasn't my hair or my husband's. It must have come from the restaurant. 100%. This is just not the way to handle these situations because now here is my freaking 1 star review on Yelp.

really solid breakfast and very efficient and personable service. Not cheap, but good quality food.

Really cute and BRIGHT interior that makes you want to sit and just enjoy living in West Hollywood. The bar has a very New York or Boston type feel where you're compelled to just relax and sip on a cup of joe or espresso if you're like me. I definitely would come back here for the ambiance but hope that the service would be a bit improved. I found the waiters to not be friendly or very attentive (e.g. no one asked a single time if I wanted a refill). When I would say "thank you" to the staff, I not once received any acknowledgment. For a cozy space, I didn't find the people cozy at all. Food was just ok. I ordered the eggs benedict with potatoes. I found the potatoes to be slightly undercooked and the hollandaise sauce not very savory. Thinking that I just didn't order one of their strong dishes. I wanna come back to give this place another shot. People seem to love their coffee and I would adore sitting at the coffee bar with a newspaper.

After being back in West Hollywood for a few year I decided it was time to give Joey's another try. I like the atmosphere and love that it is pet-friendly on the patio. It is located in the middle of WeHo, giving it an ideal location. As far as the food, I was skeptical because of the three-star review here on yelp, and comments from my friends. I decided to go with the Tuna Sandwich to get a feel for the taste. I ordered the tuna with a side of fries. When my order was placed my friend and I noticed how attentive our server was, and the option on the menu. When my sandwich came out, I loved the presentation. Now for the taste of the food..meh, just ok. I really felt the sandwich could have used some seasoning it was very bland. However it came with a lot of fries to offset it. Well, it was not a bad dish; I do not think I would order it again if I were to visit. Overall, Joey's is ok, but nothing great there are far better places to eat in the area.

Visited here for the first time and it was a very nice experience. Highly recommend this place for breakfast!

I had hoped to have found a 'new favorite' place but the food and service leaves much to be desired. The food has little to no actual flavor, (omelets, eggs Benedict, burgers), but I did love the Cobb salad. I drink ice tea but trying to get a refill is like pulling teeth and the staff are not terribly observant in that respect. If you want mediocre food with no flavor and questionable service, this is the place for you.

Really awesome breakfast (& they serve it all day long)! I got the Joey's and if you opt for it when you come...get the option of French toast! It's wonderful. Sidewalk dining is nice and shady too.

Joey's is a great, reasonable, not-pretentious dining place! We came around 9am on a Friday (with lattes from Conservatory across the street) because we were around the area and were hungry. There were only two other diners in the restaurant (makes sense). We just found a place to seat and someone brought us menus. I got the Oven Roasted Sun-dried Tomato Omelet with wheat bread and fruit and he got the Santa Fe Omelet. Both were delicious; my side of fruit was fresh and in big chunks and there was a generous amount of goat cheese in my omelet. The potatoes were also delicious and huge. They seem to like to cut things into big pieces. would def come again but it's not like THE BEST BREAKFAST I'VE EVER HAD

Huevos Rancheros There are some dishes I would order more than once: huevos rancheros, chiliquilles, breakfast quesdilla, greek scramble and Joey's breakfast special. Do not get the salmon salad. My husband likes the pancakes. One of my friends likes the salmon and egg thing. Another consistently orders the quesadilla with bacon. Ine of my friends always orders coffee. I tried it once and couldn't finish it. After breakfast I went accross the street and got a latte. So much better. There are two waiters, who are not always there unfortunately, that make ordering, paying, tipping and therefore dining, more enjoyable. I'm doing my best to give the benefit of the doubt to the three men who seem to be there almost every day. I don't understand why they can't act like they're glad we came, not because it's us but because they're happy to have people in there. restaurant. For some reason I want them ti greet the customers with a hello, welcome, how are you today? You know, to greet someone like you're proud to offer what you have. Too much to ask? Parking in back is usually full on weekends Be kind. We have no idea what's going on in their world.

We used to come to Joey's regularly about 15 years ago...but things changed and are different now. My hubby and I had a very important visit to the doctor this last thursday (10/20) and stopped by for breakfast. While we were waiting, a homeless man comes inside of the restaurant. He is mumbling to our table (he is slightly behind my line of sight), and then starts mumbling again....and again. My other half reached into his wallet to give him a buck to get him to go away, but he didn't want it. He wanted to have us BUY him breakfast. My other half put the dollar away. I looked at staff- one was staring right at the whole thing going down- and said quite loudly- "get this guy OUT of here!" No movement from staff. The server had picked up the phone and did nothing. I had hoped that my sense of urgency with calling him out would have done something, but there was NOTHING. I asked our server for the manager- and he told me that he was the manager on duty. He told me that business was tough, and he was on the call with a catering job that was coming up and he couldn't get away from the phone with that big ticket opportunity....I told him if that happens he could ask the customer on the phone to hold, that he had an incident in the dining room, and excuse himself. But instead, he chose to chase the 'potential' buck with a phone call instead of a paying customer in the house RIGHT THEN. He blamed it on lack of staff....having to be closed on some evenings/ no help/ etc. When I called out the other guy that watched but didn't move, the 'manager' just rolled his eyes like he couldnt expect anything more from him. There was no rally of the kitchen staff to get this guy out of the dining room (I counted 3 people behind the swinging doors). Had they all come out and confronted this guy, he would have been gone....but there was nothing. I did not feel safe there. And this was about 10am. What a freakin mess. No wonder business is in the sheeter- if this is how you treat them, I wouldn't be eating there either.

Joey's has been my favorite brunch place in LA for over a decade. Fantastic food, great service, healthy, good portions, and appropriate price.
