I have ate here once and the food was delicious. I had the omelette pancakes bacon and cheese grits; it was all awesome from the time the food was placed on table until the very last bite. Pancakes were sooo fluffy. The place was clean and the server Troy we had was amazing. And from the looks of it all the servers were nice and seemed happy providing awesome customer service. I will definitely come back and will definitely tell somebody else about this place. This place is a must to visit!

My first time ever going. I loved the atmosphere. Mixed with the elderly and a few younger people. The waitress actually recommended me from the gym how awesome is that and we never met until this day. I love it here definitely going back. Noted my go to spot. Oh and the price is outstanding very affordable for 2 or just yourself. Please take my word and go try them out. They're good folks...

First time coming here for breakfast. Drove from Lillington. Got there at the absolute busiest time and understood there would be a wait but it was well worth it! I was wanting some good pancakes and they delivered with a stack of the fluffiest and perfectly cooked pancakes. Probably the best I have ever had! Now the eggs, how can somewhere make the softest, melt in your mouth scrambled eggs ever? Well they did it! My son had the breakfast burger and said it was amazing as well. My wife had Mommas omelet with a side of hollandaise to put on top. Hands down the best hollandaise I have ever tasted! Now the service…. Our server was super sweet and our drinks never ran empty. She kept us updated on the status of our food and made sure everything was perfect when we received it. Unfortunately I failed to get any pictures as it looked so good I couldn’t do anything but dig right in. This was our first of many meals to be had at Mary Bills! Also, wanted to give a shout out to the manager who came and talked with us several times and made us feel like we are now a part of the Mary Bills family!

Went to Mary Bills for the first time after living in Fayetteville for over 10 years. I’m not big on breakfast but it my mom recommended this place. The place was packed when we arrived but it only took us like 5 minute wait before being seated. Once seated, our server was friendly and took her time to explain the menu. I ordered the corn beef hash with over easy eggs and toast. Portion sizes were enough for 2-3 people, I couldn’t finish it. I only ate like 1/3 of the plate. Place was busy but it didn’t take too long to get seated. The food took about 20 minutes to come. The server came and check if I needed anything in a timely manner. Definitely a place to check out.

Best mom n pops place feeling to it. It’s very hard to find a real good wholesome place to seat and eat delicious food. This place gives it both. Super friendly vibes.

The food is amazing. 5 stars. The service barely 3 stars. Nice lady. Just sub-par service Pro: - food. Everything is amazing. Especially if you get it hit. - location is convenient - restaurant is nice if you sit in the main floor. Bad if you get sat in the back. ‐ price is very reasonable Con: - service. Took me about 5-8 minutes to be offered a drink after being seated. I don't know if the server in charge of my section was coming from a break or not. Food was very fast, but brought by someone other than my server. Coffee refills were slow. I was on empty for a while before offered a refill. The times she did come she was very pleasant and polite, just not attentive. - the tables in my section were all dirty with leftovers. Took a while for those to be cleaned. Nothing against it. But unpleasant to look at while not being served. I was also sat at the back of the back. The food is amazing and anyone should definitely come just for that. The service is just hit or miss.

The eggs Benedict was great, but there is absolutely tuna in their crab cakes (which is fine, but not mentioned on the menu). They get you on the drinks, watery coffee $2.79, OJ $4. Great service, rustic atmosphere.

My daughter and I stayed in a hotel nearby on our drive to Florida. Cave was 7 miles from hotel so we were debating whether we wanted to get on the road or venture to Marybill's - glad we decided to go from breakfast! The food was amazing - some of the best eggs Benedict I have ever had.

For the past year, I've been reading and hearing that Marybill's is the place to go for breakfast. Upon arriving at the parking lot, you'll start to wonder where it is until you see the famous mural out back. The restaurant is in a very unassuming area. Once we stepped in, we had a short wait until we got seated. We were treated with kindness and respect by all the staff that we interacted with. My wife and I each had the Eggs Benedict, my dad had the corned beef hash, my mom got French toast, and our kids both had pancakes. I was not a fan of the biscuit that came with the Eggs Benedict. It was dry and had no flavor. It did not make up for an English muffin for me. My dad's corned beef hash was extra salty. I did not try my mom's French toast but the kid's pancakes did not taste good either. As far as the ambiance and service I liked the place, but as far as the taste of the food, I'll pass.

We had an excellent breakfast at this cute Fayetteville Cafe. Portions are large, and prices are low. I enjoyed a veggie omelet with grits. Service was friendly and efficient. I would be a regular if I lived locally.

The food was amazing, service took a hot minute but the people were great. Definitely recommend the Belgian waffle. Ambiance was good.

This is the best breakfast restaurant in Fayetteville!! The pancakes are outstanding and I always get the ribeye omelette with jalapeños added, grits and 1 pancake instead of toast togo and it's always HOT and perfect. I'm thinking about going this weekend.

The food is obviously prepared with love! I have never been disappointed when dining at Marybill's Cafe!

Ate here today and will never go back. The owner lets customers make racial comments to wait staff and does nothing. I didn't even eat my food after I heard a "regular" say racial stuff to a waitress. This place only want white customers. I would rate them a negative rating but can't so I'll give it a 1 star. NEVER AGAIN!!! Do better Marybill's.

The food was soooo delicious and you must try the sourdough bread! It's a mini loaf and very tasty The place is always crowded which is a good sign! Friendly staff is a nice plus! Large portions and everything we tried was just wonderful

Today had a bad experience, sat down to be seated. It wasn't as busy as it usually is no server never came to help me. I watched four people come in after me get seated and serve, and no one never said anything to me when I brought it to someone's attention.Mia was rude. Call back to speak to the owner, I was told she was busy.

The food and service were both excellent. The bacon was cooked to perfection and the pancakes were fluffy and melted in your mouth. I thought the holiday decorations were cute. It is a definite, must come and then come back again and again.

Let me start by saying, the food here is pretty dang good! The first time we came in, we were seated super fast but they placed us next to a cash register that made a loud, high-pitched whirring noise. I don't usually ask to be moved but I knew immediately it was going to drive me nuts so I asked to move to a booth and they were very kind about it. They have hearty portions of classic breakfast items. We enjoy the atmosphere, which is cozy and a little quirky and the customer service is great. Haven't had a bad server yet. Shoutout to Nick, he's a great server, very friendly and diligent. My only complaint is that they aren't open on Sundays or Mondays, since those are the best days to go for breakfast!

This is a pretty well-known restaurant with the local Fayetteville folks. I could kick myself for not coming sooner. I will say that the décor and interior has seen better days, but it was worth it to try out this local gem. Husband and I came in on a Tuesday at around 10. The hostess seated us right away and cleaned the table for us as well. Our server was friendly and gave her opinion about some items on the menu. We learned that all items are made in house, except for the waffles. I went in for a two-egg breakfast (scrambled with cheese), and he ordered a pancake breakfast that came with one egg (over medium) and a choice of protein. We also got a biscuit with gravy to share. My eggs were exceptional, the sausage and hash browns were ok. The biscuit and gravy were phenomenal. Pancakes were really nice; his egg was cooked a perfect over medium. He said that the the coffee was tasty, and hot...just like our food when it came out. We weren't there very long because service is so quick, and the prices are really low for the portions you get as well. I will for sure be back to check out some of the lunch offerings!

They have this breakfast brunch meal that's called the thing. And it's got a little bit of everything! Gravy, hashbrowns, bacon, eggs all of it. It is my absolute favorite and if you haven't tried it, you should! And the wait staff treat you just like family. super cute and cozy inside. I love this little breakfast spot.

I was with a group of ten, but we had called ahead and they were ready for us when we got there. I ordered the crab cake eggs Benedict, which were fantastic! Most of the others also ordered breakfast items but some ordered salads or burgers. Only one lady who had ordered a burger was not pleased with her meal. (The burger was cold). I heard them offer her a new one, but don't know how it was resolved. Our server was somehow able to keep all the separate orders straight and remained cheerful and helpful throughout. This restaurant is not the classiest of places but it sure has good food!

Came here to eat and usually not bad even with the wait. Me and my fiancé waited over 30 minutes for food only to get a breakfast completely different than what we ordered. The waitress didn't apologize or even offer to send a manager over to make the situation right. Yet during the 30 minute wait she kept saying she would get the manager to take care of it!!!!! Needless to say before I would have gladly recommended them to a family or friend but now Please stay away!!!!!! Last time me and my family will be patronizing their establishment. Only giving them one star because I can't post my review otherwise. Smh

6 years later we're back and I'm happy to say it's just as good as last time. My wife had the same (pancakes, eggs and bacon, minus the grits). Loved it. I went for the Mikie which is turkey sausage, cheese and scrambled egg on a muffin. A little bit of hot sauce and loved it too. Great coffee and great service. Will there be a next time? Who knows!?

I like the total package! The food is great with a lunch special every day. Servers are efficient and friendly. Ambiance is not lacking either. Coupled with a laid back atmosphere, there is a feeling of family. Our mens' group meets there every week along with multiple others. Marie (the owner ), has done a fabulous job refreshing the decor and it is still ongoing. You owe it to yourself to stop in and try it out. I don't think you will be disappointed!

Small, hole in the wall diner but don't let that fool you. I always got mad when my boyfriend went without me because I love their food. Service was always great.

Stopped on our way home from vacation on a Saturday morning. Had a 20 minute wait. The restaurant has a homey feel and restroom was very clean. Coffee was good and the French toast and bacon were delicious. Our server was friendly and attentive. Would make this a regular spot if we were local.

I have been in Fayetteville for a few years now and always have heard how great this place is. Husband and I decided to give it a try yesterday for breakfast. Upon first glance of the menu, the prices are unbeatable (unless you frequent Waffle House a lot). The waitress was very attentive and polite. We ordered two eggs cooked to order with bacon, custard french toast and SOS. Everything was as ordered, hot and tasty. With a coffee, OJ and hot chocolate the price was about $28 before tip. Highly recommend for a good breakfast.

I would definitely recommend this place to anyone on any given day. As soon as we walked in we were seated immediately, and our waitress came around and took our order. I am not lying to you when I say it literally took just about 5-7 min to get all of our food. The taste of everything was like a home cooked meal, it was as if we were eating at the comfort of our own home. The hash browns were nice and crispy and the egg scramble I had was so flavorful that I did not need any additional sauce, salt or pepper. The coffee was not too strong nor too watery. The orange juice was a little too sweet for me but nonetheless it was still great. The French toast was just the right size and amount that there were no left overs. Not to mention the overall service and attentiveness of our waitress. I wish I remembered her name but she was very nice and made our experience even better than it already was. I highly recommend, we will definitely be back!

Food is usually great but this time everything was cold and small portions with no flavor in the grits. Service was horrible this time. I'm very disappointed. . Its gone downhill the past few times but this by far was the worst experience and I'm not sure ill be back.

This place.... What an amazing mom and pop shop! I just ordered takeout for my way out of Fayetteville on the road to NJ. The lady at the cashier desk was SO sweet. I ordered 3 eggs and bacon and received such a well-sized portion and also got a biscuit with it and hashbrowns! It was SO affordable!!! She told me my total and I was in disbelief. Definitely come eat here!

Great place. I have been stopping by for breakfast fairly regularly over the last couple months. I get Mary's Signature Omelette. No better way to start the day! Staff is always quick and courteous. I brought the family with me today for lunch and was surprised to see the crowd! Nevertheless, the MaryBill's team was able to provide the same high quality of service as they do when I show-up at 7:05 am. Food is good, and the prices are reasonable; highly recommend!

Really enjoyed this mom and pop shop! Went for breakfast Saturday morning. Not crowded, seated immediately. Had the Mary's specialty omelette, the little piggy omelette, and the western omelette, all were great. The Mary's special omelette was loaded with Turkey, as little too much for me, but probably perfect for the next person. The great were pretty amazing, didn't need to add anything to them and perfect texture. The toast was also great. Not sure how some make toast do much better than others, but this place had top notch buttery toast. The only thing I wasn't overly pleased with was the Belgian waffle. It wasn't a traditional Belgian waffle; small, cakey, and sugar coated, not really my thing. Overall I was very pleased and will absolutely be back.

Seated immediately. Hostess was very nice. Waitress came over and ran through the drink menu which was long . I laughed a bit . She was very "you ready to order " several times when we had only just sat down. This was our first trip here. She asked if it was separate checks and we said together and it felt like that changed her mood immediately. We ordered and food came pretty quickly. She refilled the coffee once but never checked in on how everything was or how we were doing . We needed more creme and had to flag her down for it. All in all it just felt uncomfortable here . We just moved here and probably won't be back

Been wanting to try this place for a while but each time we went by the lines were too long and we had not patience. Glad we finally made it in for breakfast. The dining area was great. A nice surprise walking in from the outside and given it is in a stip mall kind of area. We say in a booth off to the right looking out over the rest of the dinning area. Our server was right there getting us waters and our orders. So many things on the menu sounded good and it took a bit to choose one. I chose the 'This little piggy' with hash browns and English muffin. Stuffed with bacon, sausage, ham and cheddar cheese. The best thing was it was light on the eggs and heavy on the fillar !! delicious. The hash browns were probably my favorite though. Great gilled flavors. So good. Deb had biscuits and gravy. The gravy was so good! A nice portion size too. Very good choice for breakfast in the Fayetteville area. Looking forward to going back and trying their lunch !

To the woman who decided that my child in her stroller next to me is a fire hazard, I hope you have a horrible day. we were literally shunned to the back of the restraunt where they literally need a space heater to keep warm but hey! guess what? that's not a fire hazard. Where we were sitting was nowhere near the front door and infact not a fire hazard. if you didnt want to serve us thats all you had to say lady.

Best pancakes anywhere! I think they might add ricotta cheese to the mix. Whatever it is they are the best I've ever had bar none!

It was always full of people going in and out. We went inside, and it is much bigger than it looks from the outside. I ordered an old-fashioned breakfast. Cooked to profection. As for "The Thing" that is on the menu, my daughter said it was utterly amazing. We will be regulars there when in town. I can't wait to try the lunch menu items. Try it, you will be pleased.

Wow-what amazing food that is priced reasonably. The staff and food were amazing and this will be one of the better experiences at a restaurant you will experience. A must try!!!! Especially as almost 100% is made in house
