Mallery Street Cafe

Amazing breakfast/brunch place. Plates arrive hot and fast. Exceptional Eggs Benedict and also the Southwestern omelette are highly recommended as well as the biscuit and perfectly crispy potatoes. Present and helpful service but not overly so, just a wonderful way to greet the day. Highly recommended.

Our first visit for breakfast was awesome. It was very busy, but we only waited about ten minutes for a table. I ordered the eggs Benedict with potatoes, and my husband had a New York strip steak with eggs, a biscuit and fruit. It was all excellent, and the service was great too. Can’t wait to come back on our next trip

Fantastic Eggs Benedict and variations! The crab instead of ham is my favorite! Not sure why this place doesn’t show up in Google search for breakfast but it should! There’s a short wait for a table weekends but worth your patience.

Great local breakfast! I had the eggs McIntosh (with crab) and corned beef hash. The hash was cooked perfectly crispy and it was all delish. I tried the omelette and it was nice and fluffy. Highly recommend this local joint!

We Visited the restaurant on Saturday morning and I was crowded. We waited in the bar for about 20 minutes. Our food was okay. I loved the potatoes salad. One thing I did not like was they only have one bathroom for men and women so some people had to wait on line for using it.

Great place for breakfast!! We enjoyed a few breakfasts here during our annual February visit! First off they know how to cook eggs!! They know what over medium means! Next the coffee is always hot & fresh! Their bacon is AMAZING!! Nice & crispy!! And just tastes so good. Definitely not too salty, just excellent!! Their toasts are delicious, at least the wheat & white, that we had. I enjoyed a 3 egg omelet with spinach, tomato, onion & bacon. It was really good. The pancakes were very big and yummy! The breakfast potatoes are really good. Although a bit too salty. I guess my only critique is too much salt on the potatoes. And the service was top notch! The servers worked together as a cohesive team and communicated nicely with each other. Constantly checking on each other's tables. It was nice to see that. And the wait for your food order was minimal. I mean they are fast!

Great diner great prices! Loved the steak and eggs I had and the best part were the breakfast potatoes! Thanks for the southern hospitality and tasty meal! They also had free refills on juice, which is rare!

Just look at that chicken biscuit! We hit a few breakfast places around town during our vacation, and Mallery won the effort necessary to post a review. Coming back tomorrow for the Asparagus salad with salmon.

Crepes, pancakes, awesome biscuits, grits, fresh avocado! Great little breakfast place in Saint Simons Island! Best breakfast and lunch spot!

Good local spot to grab a home style breakfast. The staff is helpful and quick to get you your order. During busy weekends be patient as the wait is worth it. There is some outside seating (2 tables for four) with several booths and twice as many tables inside. Have fun in the Village area!

Very good food and service. A wide variety of breakfast options. Wait wasn't too long.

After Great ambiance but overall mediocre food at Echo and The Reserve, wr went the opposite route for brunch and went for quality local food with no view of the beach. :) Great meal. I had the Eggs McIntosh, a Benedict with crabmeat, and corned beef hash as the side (+$1). So good. I tired the potatoes and a bite of the shrimp and Scallop omelet and it was great. At our table we also ordered the ham omelet, eggs Florentine, Parfait, snd French toast sticks. Everyone loved their meals, highly recommend!

Nice spot for breakfast. Pleasant atmosphere that you can carry a conversation in. Seating both inside and outside patio. Tori and others took excellent care of us. I had traditional eggs, bacon, toast, and potatoes which was perfect. My wife had French toast sticks with candied pecans, bacon, her French toast sticks made my mouth water, they were delicious. They were generous with the candied pecans. The breakfast was relaxed and we did not feel any pressure to leave. One of our favorite places on St Simons Island.

I got to Mallery Street Cafe 15 minutes before they opened after reading most reviews. Snagged 1 of 2 patio tables. Service was immediate and prompt. I ordered a vanilla latte with the Bannana Foster Crepe and, based on the reviews, ordered a side of cooked spinach and corn beef hash. Mallerys gets super packed super fast and is a delicious spot close to most beach stays, making it a convenient place to do breakfast. My latte was perfect, and my meal was even better. It was the perfect size. The spinach was sautéed and seasoned perfectly. The cornbeef hash was a beautiful addition to the Banna Foster Crepe. And the crepe was light and sweet. Everything I had was the perfect little breakfast combination. Our server was uppity and attentive. I have nothing to complain about other than I am so sorry I did not take a picture. I recommend this place. Tips: Get there 10 to 15 minutes before they open. This is a quaint little local spot, so don't expect anything over the top. It's a coastal, casual breakfast joint with urgent service by the beach. It's as coastal and casual you can get by the beach in the south. It's perfect!

Just spent $99.00 at this place. As we were about to leave, a big tub of dirty dishes, half empty glasses, etc., fell behind us and food, broken glass and liquids went everywhere- water, half drank soda cups, etc. My socks/shoes were soaked with the water/soda during this incident to the point I had to go change out them out. I had to grab a couple of big napkins to wipe everything off my legs. I asked to see the manager just to have a convo but I was told there wasn't one and I was directed to a young lady. Right off the bat she presented attitude, said accidents happen and she gets spilled on all the time. Then she asked me if I had kids as if that has to do with the situation. It appeared I was bothering her asking if I could be even semi compensated for the big nasty backwash mess in my shoes and on my legs. She told me to never come back. I've been here 13 years and will not be back. Some management and people skills are needed at this place. This young lady probably shouldn't be in a customer facing position.

I can't believe in all my years we've never eaten here. Definitely our new favorite breakfast place on the island! They have indoor and a few outdoor seating options (we got lucky and got outside seating). They were quite busy but must have a wonderful system because their wait times were not long. They sat you and got out food in a quick manor. I got the 2 egg breakfast and their bacon was the best I've had in a long time. My friends tried omelets, eggs Benedict and sausage and egg biscuit! We LOVED the biscuits. Service was great, food was phenomenal and a clean facility! We'll be back in a couple months.

Everything about this establishment is gross including the owner Lance Sr. Don't contribute. Food was cold, service was poor, dirty tables and cutlery and to top it off the owner is rude and uses foul language to guest.

I have to be honest it was an ok breakfast, but it wasn't as good as the reviews I looked at before I went for breakfast. I got the standard breakfast of scrambled eggs, potato and biscuit. I was really disappointed that I asked the server if the hash was premade or homemade and she said it's pre-made, but they add potatoes and other things to make it better. Unfortunately, it was just the plain old caned CBH. The eggs were a bit over cooked so they were ok. I liked the biscuit, it was grilled with butter and that was the best thing I had. The potatoes were good, but I don't really use much salt and they had a bit too much for my taste. Their salads looked great as they were being brought out, other items looked very good like the omelettes I saw.

This is the BEST breakfast place on the island. The only problem is that they aren't open earlier. Order the Crab McIntosh next time you drop in for breakfast, brunch, or lunch -- you definitely will not be disappointed!

My husband and I had breakfast here every day of our vacation because it was just so wonderful! We had the same waitress every morning and she was so sweet and adorable!!! Will definitely return during our next visit to SSI! (Also the French toast is the BOMB!!!)

Very busy popular place so plan on a wait. But it was not long. Most ordered Breakfast and all plates were cleaned. I ordered the shrimp / scallop crepes. They were okay. Never saw scallops in them. Seemed a little pricey.

This is a great restaurant for breakfast, very friendly staff and amazing food. Pick the breakfast potatoes as side and biscuit, and ask for the biscuit to be griddled is way better !

Excellent service and the food is always top shelf. We always have at least one breakfast or lunch there...before we leave the island

3.5 stars. My husband and I had breakfast one weekday morning at Mallery Street Cafe while vacationing in SSI. It wasn't crowded when we visited and we were seated immediately. We each had an omelet. I had the coastal with shrimp, scallops, and white cheddar, and my husband had the southern with ham, onions, green peppers, and cheddar. For our sides, I had the grits, and my husband had the potatoes. My husband also got a side of corned beef hash. Their omelets are huge, and are probably made with four eggs. Both were filled perfectly, and tasted very good. I never would have thought shrimp and scallops would be good in an omelet, but I had to give it a try. It was a little simple and bland, but still very good. The grits were a thicker consistency, and didn't need any additions (like butter or salt). The potatoes were flavorful and super crispy, and appeared as if they were deep fried. Yum! The corned beef was a huge portion, and would also have worked well topped with two fried eggs. Their coffee was nice and moderately strong. Service was friendly and efficient. Their music was a delightful mix of easy listening tunes. We enjoyed our meal, and definitely would return.

We have eaten breakfast three or four times each year and the food and service were good. But not today. We were told to sit anywhere as usual. A family of 4 came in after us, another man came in and yet another man. They all got waited on before us. And it ain't because they were that busy. Sorry just was not sufficient. The girl was sarcastic. We came right down the way to Palmers and their food was good. Now who is sorry.

Great food and great service. Best Eggs Benedict anywhere. Our go to for breakfast when at St Simons.

The best eggs benedict. The service is quick on a hopping Saturday. I love the cafe feeling.

Went in for a quick drink at the new bar. Asked server for a styrofoam cup for my drink because the regular glass was too heavy for me due to my physical handicap. The server then said very snarkily "no, that's illegal" and very rudely walked off before I had a chance to give a response explaining why I needed a styrofoam cup. My dad had to step in and get me a styrofoam cup. The staff here is clearly not trained to deal with people with disabilities.

Wow! Come here for an amazing breakfast! Great food and wonderful service! We will come back!

After an hour wait. Both omelets were extremely dry. Wait staff was very rude. Will not be back

Great down to earth breakfast. Benedict selections were great and the side of potatoes is massive. Everything cooked to perfection, fast service, quaint little breakfast spot. The coffee kept coming, too, and after the drive we had it was needed. Regret not taking photos but was starving and food was great so didn't even think about it until we cleaned our plates.

Awesome service. Great food-pet friendly. Terrific place.go go go -do not hesitate It will not disappoint!

We have a vacation home in St. Simons that we pretty much come to year round. This is our go to for brunch. If we're going to brunch then we are going to Mallery Street Cafe. It's my husbands favorite spot for breakfast that we've ever been to like ever! He always gets the steak and eggs. We've brought family and friends here when they visit as well!

What a wonderful little cafe. Interesting menu. Not mundane at all. Local feel. The grits were delicious which is saying ALOT coming from me. I'm a huge grits snob and always have to "doctor up" the grits. I had the monte Christo chicken biscuit. Very good!

Great local breakfast spot! In the summer time there may be a wait, so get there early. The seafood omelette is to die for

This is a very nice quaint diner with a small town feel. The food was very good and cooked as ordered, the eggs florentine were great. The staff were very personable and prompt without being overwhelming .

A #goto #local #regular #favorite #hotspot where the #chef #owner Lance Williams takes great pride in his work and the food is always some of the #yummiest on the island. Whether it's their breakfast #eggsbenedict or #chickenpiccata #montecristo #asparagussalad #chickenromano #lunch or #breakfast here is always a true pleasure. The atmosphere is not fancy with lots of #local art for sale on the walls, small tables (they'll try to group together for larger parties) and a few small ones outside where your fur friends are welcome since another local celebrity Lynn Klimp has her #islanddog shop next door you're just a few short blocks to the water and #pier #village from here. Saturday's and Sundays there's always a wait in this location some timing is key. #enjoy #foodnetwork #hungry #yummy

Old school local, no frills, diner vibes breakfast spot. Everything you'd think of to order for breakfast. The 3 egg shrimp and scallop omelette was good. Potatoes tasty, a little salty. The sausage started being cooked 24 hours in advance ;-). Still, friendly kids serving, lively inside, passable enough. Will return to give the various Benedict's and Florentines a go. Oh, order a griddled biscuit. That's 4 stars+...

Stopped by here early on a Saturday on our way to the beach. Food and service was really good. My wife had to get one of her favorites with her eggs, the corned beef hash. She really enjoyed the hash and the grits with her eggs. I ordered eggs, sausage, and breakfast potatoes. Eggs were perfect and the potatoes were good. They have four tables outside so it is pet friendly. Great place to start your day.

Oh how I wish we could give ratings down to the half star because the food was by far a 4 star, however the service was definitely closer to a 3 star. My group felt the friendliest moments were upon arriving where we were greeted with a warm hello, and when we left when we were told to have a nice day. In between the servers didn't seem very interested in going beyond taking our order and dropping our food and that was about it. I dined for brunch with two girlfriends on a Saturday morning (around 11). I ordered the two eggs mcintosh which is eggs benedict with real crab meat. I would definitely recommend this dish if you enjoy crab. I was moderately hungry and two eggs were the perfect amount. For my side I had the grits and added cheese. They were good but I added a little bit of salt. My friends ordered the northern omelette and the southern omelette. One of them had the potatoes and enjoyed that as a side option. For our sweet fix we shared a crepe with berries. They give you the option to have it served hot or cold. We opted for cold but later decided it would've been better served warm. I think the crepe would've tasted more fresh had it been served warm. They are fairly small so I would call ahead and make sure there isn't a wait or if there is it won't impact your schedule.

Came by here for brunch one morning during our visit and had a coffee with eggs Benedict and grits. The eggs on my Benedict were cooked perfectly and the taste was delightful. My wife had an omelet that she enjoyed. Service was friendly and enjoyable.

Very enjoyable dining experience. We had Eggs Benedict for breakfast and will definitely go back!

I visited a Mallery's every morning for breakfast. I was never disappointed. The eggs Benedict were delicious. Friendly service and fresh food

Food was awesome they ran out of some food but service was great and they had good salad and an amazing club sandwich.

Great food, great people. Fastest service on the island. My wife and I eat here about three times a week, wonderful food and service.

Coffee, crepes and eggs Benedict were all good. Service was decent. Definitely some locals In there. Menu isn't huge but it's ok and serves the purpose. Overall a good, not stellar, experience but could still recommend and would try again.

It was our first time having breakfast at Mallery, it was great! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Coffee and tea was right on the table after we ordered them. Great selection of breakfast items. The food was prepared very efficiently and arrived on the table at a hot temperature. Excellent! We enjoyed our breakfast. Definitely a local spot to recommend to friends and family!

Waiting is part of Sunday morning brunch/brekky. It can be done irritably, or it can be done with grace and elan. It cannot not be done. There is sort of a contest on Sunday mornings to out non-chalant one another. Like all is well, hale and hearty! About half ooze booze from their pores. I parked next to a giant live oak with a face carved into it. A tree spirit. A tree spirit that looks for eternity at a Dairy Queen that is across the street. A perpetually out of reach Oreo Blizzard. That might be hell. Anyway, a ramshackle looking middle-aged woman paced up and down the sidewalk outside of the Mallery Street Cafe cursing loudly. Not just the impolite GD that might pepper an Irritable Brunch Waiting Person's conversation, but full blown MF and other odd combinations that made me think the tree spirit might be malevolent and had invaded her body. Nonchalance culture requires a witness to such to turn away, to tighten the circle, to ignore. Then the woman marched into the cafe, unbidden, and sat down with a bewildered party that just stared at her as she plopped down in their midst. I lip read a man ask, "Who are you?" The woman shot up and exited without so much as a howdy-doo, passing my little party, cursing, and loudly proclaiming, "This is BS, I can't do it anymore." Who doesn't like a little intrigue, melodrama, and rumination on the current status of treatment for the mentally ill with their Coastal Omelette? Which, I'm happy to report after my nonchalant wait, was super tasty and gathered up all the seafaring tidbits I was hoping for--crab, scallops, maybe some shrimp. The breakfast taters were good too. Kudos to the staff for managing the feigned nonchalance of the Sunday Morning Brunch People as we waited--especially those who might happen to have walked past the malevolent Tree Spirit.

Eh seeing the reviews I was excited to grab a bite to eat. Food: unseasoned, not the best, had tastier food at McDonald's Covid: bad!! If you're trying to be safe this isn't the place for you. All waitresses pull down their masks when making coffee and drinks (pulling them up when they turn back towards the tables) none of the cooks wear masks in the back. If you get food to take out but wipe everything down completely. Or better yet stay away. Menu options: not that many choices

Excellent service, outdoor seating was a plus, and the portion sizes were astronomical. The food was tasty and fresh and we all left full-y satisfied! We'll definitely visit again on our next trip to SSI.

Decent breakfast. Very busy, Sunday morning. Had to wait about 20-25 minutes for a table. All tables filled immediately when doors opened. Will eat here again

2nd time here. Had a little wait, but oh so worth it. I got the pancakes and biscuits with gravy. All fresh made and hot. This is definitely my breakfast place now that I have moved to Brunswick

Mallery Street Café is a great place for breakfast, brunch, or lunch right in the heart of the shopping area of St Simons Island. Super friendly service and a homey atmosphere. The breakfast choices include a nice selection of benedicts, omelets, and all the morning favorites. We love how you can choose to order just one, two, or three eggs benedicts with a variety of toppings. I went with the crab meat benedict and it was delicious. The crab was fresh and tender and the perfectly lightly poached eggs blended with the hollandaise sauce beautifully. I was torn between grits, which came highly recommended by the regulars, and the breakfast potatoes. I ultimately went with the potatoes and could not have been more pleased. The biscuits and gravy also had rave reviews from my husband, so it appears you cannot go wrong with any choice you make at Mallery Street Cafe.

Great coffee to go and the waitress was so quick and friendly! Will definitely come back!

Great gem! Hole in the wall diamond on SSI. Great atmosphere, staff, and food. We had the eggs Benedict, amazing! Coffee was great! Staff was kind and helpful!

Quick service & great food. Went on a weekend when they had outdoor seating. We brought our dogs and really enjoyed our meal. My boyfriend loved his biscuit bacon, egg & cheese. The biscuit was huge & fluffy. We plan to go back when we visit.

Great service snd selection at Mallery Street Cafe. Had a fantastic omelette with shrimp spinach & cheese. Meal came with a fresh biscuit and killer grits. I'll be back!

Stopped by here for breakfast while visiting SSI. The breakfast was very good. I ate the Crab Benedict and the fiancé had the French toast. The crab Benedict was well flavored with a good portion of fresh crab. As a side, I chose the potatoes which were cooked and seasoned well.
