Morning Glory Cafe

This restaurant was highly recommended to us and we are glad we listened. Sure, it's busy on a Sunday morning. It's also one of the best breakfast spots we've ever been to! The blueberry cheesecake stuffed French toast was awesome! Check this place out. You'll be glad you did.

Nice place to have a sit down breakfast, but if you don’t get there early, expect to wait for a table. They do have an outdoor patio where you can also enjoy your breakfast. We found the food good but pricey , so isn’t a place you could go to often

2 stars for the food, the Lemon Ricotta French toast and Sourdough pancakes were pretty good. However we won't be returning, and I'll explain why. After we first got seated after about a 20 minute wait (and there's also no parking anywhere aside from 6 spots) we took 2 available spots at the bar. Shortly after we sat down, one of the workers (I'm not sure if this was one of the owners, but he was working the floor and the register) walked by me, grabbed my hot tea that I brought in, without saying a word, and chucked it in the garbage. At this point, I wasn't sure if it was an accident, or intentional, but I said "excuse me, that was my drink". When I finally got his attention, he looked over and was like "oh, well we don't allow any outside drinks". Which is understandable, but it's extremely rude to grab anything that belongs to a customer without saying anything. Also, there's no signage anywhere saying this. He could have easily said "Hey we don't allow any outside beverages" which would have been fine and I would have taken it back to the car. Anyway, I proceed to ask him to grab my drink back out because he was like "Oh you still want it?" Like bro, this drink was still full. Anyhow there was no apology, which makes me think he either did it intentionally or absentmindedly and didn't want to admit any fault. This should be customer service 101, you don't grab anything from a customer without asking. So for this reason alone, we won't be returning and in all honesty, we probably should have walked out of the restaurant. But we had already waited 20 minutes and didn't want to bother finding another place. But the staff could use a lesson in treating customers better.

Best breakfast in town. Small, quaint local business with unique menu items. Best Huevos Rancheros around packed with flavor. You can pair with a bloody Mary, mimosa or other libations. They have crepes, stuffed French toast and many other menu choices. There's a wait on weekends and they're only open Th-M until 1.

The food was absolutely delicious, and even though the place was packed, the staff handled the rush effortlessly—making sure everyone was served promptly and with care. Only small issue was the AC blowing directly onto me as I sat at the bar.

Morning Glory is a wonderful little brunch spot whose success in a small town with a big event (The Oregon Shakespeare Festival) overwhelms it. No reservations so you can wait in excess of an hour. Not quite enough servers or kitchen so you end up waiting awhile - they try so hard - just a victim of their ow success. The food is awesome though. I love the pancakes but so many great dishes.

This restaurant is absolutely adorable and the food was delicious. We ordered the pulled pork Verde special and sweet crepes of the day (strawberry rhubarb). Both were mouthwatering and my crepes were so large I couldn't even finish despite really wanting to. The murals and decor were right up my alley. I love that the booths have super high backs and allow for a little bit of a quieter space. The waitstaff was wonderful and it was easy to park behind the building.

After a day of walking around, seeing the sights of Ashland OR, you tend to wake up hungry the next morning. We were told to try The Morning Glory Cafe, in the town. Arrived on a Thursday mid morning. Quick tip - parking in the back of the restaurant is limited! Anyway, went inside and we could tell this place deserved the praise it was getting. The smells of coffee, panckakes, omelets - wow, made us even more hungry! We were greeted pretty quickly and after a short 10 min wait, got a nice table outside. Our server gave us some menus and quickly took our “drink” order - a latte for my wife and a nice homemade Chai tea for me. They were a bit busy (to be expected) and after a little while give our order - which was difficult. They have so many unusual and tasty items - very hard to choose! We went with 2 House Specialties - Huevos Rancheros and the Sourdough Sandwich. The Hueovos was a big plate with a black bean mix, some corn tortillas, 2 over easy eggs covered in a saucy pico de gallo and melted cheese. The flavors were great - not overpowering but deep taste. The black beans combined with that sauce stole the show! The Sourdough Sandwich was tasty. A few fried eggs, some nice ham, a thick slice of tomato and melted cheddar cheese. Ir was good. The side that came with it was great! Creamy Au Gratin potatoes made with Gruyère cheese! We could have made a meal of those ;-) Next time (and we will be back) - we will try the pancakes and an omelet - the all sounded great and in looking at other tables - looked fantastic. Highly recommended!

I had a quick trip to Ashland and this was my last stop before I left! I had a sourdough sandwhich which was very tasty and I also ordered a side of hashbrows! My partner had their special which was I believe pumpkin cheesecake pancakes. We both enjoyed our meal and I would hit this spot again. The server was very nice although it did take us a while to get our food but I'm assuming it's because the place was packed. The restaurant is like an old house and I really loved how it felt like I was having a meal in someone's home.

This place was rough. The parking with a nightmare but we managed to get in after circling around a few times. The staff was pleasant and that's the only reason I rated this so high. I love biscuits and gravy. We are out of town so not being familiar the first thing I do is look this up on yelp to see pictures so I could judge whether or not to order it. It looked fine (as in not from a can or bag or some awful bland "milk" gravy). What I got was something that was awful to look at and eqully awful to eat. I could not even identify the meat, I had to ask. I though it might be ham but when he said sausage I was floored. There was NO color on it and it felt like little pink blobs of fat. The flavor, texture and color were all wrong. I asked for the eggs to be cooked a soft scramble. They came out brown on the edges and overcooked. If you only do breakfast, know how to make eggs. The polenta was fine but it was filled with cheese which was not stated on the menu. I sent it back. Never again.

Nice, casual home cooked, fresh, tasty. Not quick, more like a place to linger. Very nice vibe/atmosphere. Not easily accessible for people with physical challenges. But very good coffee and nice outdoor space. Not particularly fast moving, so budget time. Oatmeal pancakes were excellent, with the fruit compote. Hash browns (extra crispy please) were very very good. I didn't try the Benedict but I heard it was good. Unfortunately, the tofu sausage was all but inedible. I like meat substitutes but the flavors/seasonings in this particular sausage did not appeal to me at all.

As good as it gets! I love the ambiance here, and the team is really friendly and helpful. We have made this a tradition, every time we are in Ashland helping a friend doing the 100 mile Ultra Trail run called "pine to Palm" my husband and I have made time to go here for breakfast during the weekend. It is a highlight! I love the food choices of savory and sweet, and tons of vegetarian options! And, their coffee drinks are really good too. This is one of my top 5 of all-favorite breakfast places in the world. It is a great treasure!

Oh buddy! This is THE brunch spot in Ashland! Located in South Ashland next to SOU, this is a local favorite. Ashland hosts numerous amazing brunch spots but Morning Glory stands out as having a perfect mix of cozy/ comfortable and unique brunch food. The ambiance reminds me of a kooky grandma kitchen where you feel so welcomed. Firstly, their drinks! I am a chai latte connoisseur- my friends and I have deemed that Morning Glory has the best chai latte in town. Bold statement that I fully attest to!! It is an added bonus that all their drinks come in a mismatch of fun mugs! Now their food! YUM!!! They are best known for their breakfast crepes and you truly cannot go wrong with them. Their crepes are the best of the best. I always order the au Gra crepe!! The bacon bits are otherworldly! If you have more of a sweet tooth, then the stuffed lemon ricotta French toast is 10/10. If you are a pro like me then I would recommend ordering your main dish as a crepe and then asking for a half order of lemon ricotta stuffed French toast to share with the table. That's the best mix of food right there! Morning Glory gets very busy on the weekends so I recommend either coming early or in a small group. Most of the time people come in larger families so you have a shorter wait (if any) when you are only a pair. Every time I have came as a pair I've barely waited. Amazing local brunch spot!!

I was in Oregon, visiting a friend, and decided to check out this breakfast joint. There's about 5 parking spots in the back of the restaurant. We parked in a neighborhood nearby and walked about a 3 minute walk. Be sure to check the signs, just to be safe! There was no wait on a Saturday morning around 9 a.m., surprisingly. It started getting busy after 10:30 am. The fireplace was on, which felt nice in the chilly morning. There's indoor and outdoor seating, but we chose to be seated inside. The atmosphere of the cafe is cute. It's very welcoming! Workers were enthusiastic and friendly. They were quick to check up on us and answer any questions we had. I ordered the lemon ricotta French toast. My friend got the apple gouda chicken sausage omelet. We decided to share half our food so we could enjoy both dishes. The portions are big here! The French toast was heaven. Every bite was pure joy, especially with the lemon butter. Surprisingly, the French toast wasn't too sweet. The apple chicken sausage omelet was delicious. I enjoyed the sausage and kale, especially. I did end up taking half of my food home, though, since it was too much for me. This is a great breakfast place to check out if you're in Ashland, Oregon! The food and service are outstanding here!

Really nice brunch spot. I had the chorizo scramble and added avocado. It was very tasty and good portion. I had some left for the next day. Also had a seasonal lemonade, can't remember the flavor but it was good, I mean you can't go wrong with flavored lemonade. The place definitely gets packed even on a weekday so just know you might have a wait but as I was alone I was able to immediately sit at their little bar. The service was good and pretty quick despite them being packed. I'll definitely be back because they have a pretty good looking menu. They also had some nice outdoor seating for those who want to enjoy the fresh air.

Absolutely delicious breakfast!!! A MUST try! They make sweet and savory crepes. They make the most amazing pumpkin oatmeal pancakes with an almond flavored butter, so you don't really need the syrup. We also had the chorizo scramble which was also very tasty. They are typically very busy so go there intending to wait about 15 to 30 minutes. It is worth the wait! The only downside, which I am not counting against them, is the parking. They have a one way drive to their small parking area so the likelihood of having to park about a 3 minute walk away is likely.

We loved our brunch at Morning Glory. My husband and I were visiting Ashland for the Shakespeare Festival, and we looked up good breakfasts spots near our hotel. This is a quaint little cafe that looks like a refurbished home. There are pretty, colorful murals on all the walls inside and some outside, too. We were seated inside. The host and the waiter were both friendly. We were served coffee quickly, and we were given a few minutes to decide on our food. They have a good menu. A lot of crepe options, but there are savory dishes as well. My husband ordered the crepe wrap which was kind of like a breakfast burrito but instead of being wrapped in a tortilla, a crepe. I ordered the bacon Belgian waffles which were served with walnut butter and maple syrup. Both dishes we ordered were awesome! Really yummy flavors, good presentation, and nicely executed creative offerings! I'm glad we tried some of the more unique items on the menu. We had never tried anything else quite like it before. Really delicious, good service, and quaint small-town cafe atmosphere. I think we'll definitely stop here again next time we're in Ashland.

This is a cute, bright and cheery cafe weigh friendly servers. We were here in a Monday morning where they had a steady flow of customers. The coffee is good quality from a local roaster, but it's pretty dark. We ordered a chicken sausage omelette with mushrooms and substituted spinach for kale. Very nice! My husband had 2 pancakes and bacon. The pancakes were pretty good, but they are big and he'll just get one next time. The bacon was very good. Food came out quick, hot and with a smile.

It was the morning of our thesis defense so some of us came to eat through our anxiety...LOLLL! I ordered the crepe wrap with chicken sausage...oh so good! When the server came, she said the kitchen was short staffed and it'd be a while, but it was all good. Morning Glory was how I discovered Rogue Valley Roasters, because it's the coffee they server. I love sitting outside on the patio. Everything came out eventually and we really didn't have to wait too long. Great place to start the day!

My husband and I were on a road trip and this place was a breakfast pit stop. Absolutely loved everything about it! Everything was fresh and felt homemade, from the muffins to the OJ. We both ordered the smoked salmon scramble and savoured every bite. Portions were huge. I ordered my scramble with a side of pancakes with marionberry compote (highly recommend!!); each bite was bursting with berry flavour. My husband got his with a side of hashbrowns which were crispy and plentiful. Inside is cozy eclectic decor. Not a lot of parking in the lot, but plenty of free street parking around the corner from the restaurant. Service was super prompt and kind. Would definitely come back next time we're in the area.

No matter how exquisite the food may be, there is nothing worse than driving for miles and not have decent parking. No parking, no business, three strikes zero stars if possible. Update 7-2-24 from the owner: " The extent of a restaurant's accommodations is to cook food you're too lazy to make yourself. Have you tried a Denny's? Their parking lot is great. So many spaces, you'll love it." Update 7-2-24 from the owner: Saw this and thought of you!

Food was good! A little of a wait for our food. Great Coffee Blend. Clean - Atmosphere wonderful- friendly. I wish they had more gluten free items, but all and all good food.

I've been anticipating eating here for months, specially because of the reviews I read. Unfortunately the food was underwhelming. I ordered the crepe with smoked salmon and capers. For $16.95 I expected better than this. The crepe was hard (overcooked) so I picked it up and ate it. Nothing spilled out of the other end because there wasn't much in there to begin with. As for the flavor, well, take a look inside and see for yourself. There were hardly any capers and not much of the dill cream cheese. So taste was meh. Oh yes, and parking IS a nightmare. My husband and I parked 3 blocks away for this less than mediocre meal.

Great space friendly staff. Delicious food. Huevos Rancheros and crepe special. Yummy

We went to Morning Glory based on rave Yelp reviews. And they did not disappoint. The service was friendly and the food was delicious. Such a cool vibe too. We loved it.

This place is out of this world! We have tried most of the menu on our recent trip to Ashland and have too many favorites to list. The lemon raspberry stuffed French toast is heavenly. The crepes are all delicious and filling. The omelettes are next level with creative ingredients and perfect execution. My daughter had to be talked out of having the biscuits and gravy four straight days. They even talked me into trying polenta and kale dish and I practically licked the sauce from my plate (though it is quite rich if that isn't your thing). Really, order anything - you'll be happy!

My husband and I ate here during a road trip through Oregon and so glad we did. Ambiance is cozy and quaint with outdoor seating (too windy the day we were there). Service is quick and attentive. Food was good. The Au Gra Crepe was outstanding...truly cravable. Although not listed on the menu, you can get a half order of the lemon ricotta stuffed french toast which was still too much for the two of us to finish along with our main dish but was delicious to try. Husband didn't love the biscuit eggs benedict as the biscuits fell apart but it was tasty all the same. I would go back in a heartbeat if we are ever in Ashland again.

New owners! Some of the original omelettes are back, like the rock shrimp omelette; always a favorite. Service and style are still excellent. The patio remains open when the weather is warmer.

Did not stop. No parking here whatsoever. Looked for ten minutes for a legal spot to park on a Saturday morning. Yellow no parking along every street. Would be great if this is the place to go, if there was better access. Proprietor should offer suggestion for others.. don't come with an RV. We are in a pickup. Bummed.

Lovely breakfast/brunch place right in the middle of town. Great menu and coffee! Service was efficient and helpful. The stuffed French toast is amazing!

There was a short wait, 15 minutes, and the service was sparse, but the food and drink is worth it.

Great service and interesting yummy menu. Cute atmosphere. Busy place so come early and don't be in a huge hurry to get in. You will enjoy your meal and your time here

After having lived in Ashland for 3 years I figured I had to try Morning Glory to see what all the excitement was about. I cannot believe I have gone this long without trying it! It is without a doubt the best breakfast place that Ashland has to offer that I have tried! Their menu mostly consists of Crepes, omelets, and a few other choices as well. Some of the key winners was the pancakes, with their lemon butter it was a delicious and original. I'd say it's the cherry on top but it made the pancakes what they were! The savory crepe of the day was steak and potatoes which was super yummy as well! Delicious coffee to top it off and super fast service. Can't wait to go back!

Best breakfast place I ever been too very friendly great environment very quick nice staff very attentive very happy with this place I absolutely loved it

We arrived a bit early before opening on Sunday and we weren't the only ones. We were seated right away. We ordered hot chocolate and coffee for drinks and a basic breakfast and kids French toast. The food was good. I chose over medium eggs and the crispy polenta. We also ordered a kids side of fruit and it was a great bowl. The ambiance is cute and in an old house. We kind of were seated in a side part with no one else and were a bit easy to forget. We had to grab silverware, jam for toast and hot sauce. Just part of what happens when a bunch of tables arrive at once trying to beat the breakfast crowd.

FAMILIES BEWARE! Service was awful, not family friendly at all. We arrived early Sunday morning (30 minutes after open) with our two kids under 3 years old. We were seated immediately but food took 45 minutes to arrive. Our waiter passed by frequently and ignored our table, despite our visible anxiety. At the end of our rope, we asked for an update on timing. Our waiter more or less rolled his eyes -- clearly did not give two sh*ts about us. Food when it finally arrived was aggressively average. Don't bother with this place - try Bread Board instead. Prompt and friendly service, and way better food.

The food service and ambience are all incredible! If you are gluten-free or have any dietary issues, this is the place for you! The best lemon blueberry pancakes, I've ever eaten! And GF! Fresh blueberry and lingonberry syrups too. Yum.

My husband and I live in the California Bay Area, and overnighted in Shasta on a road trip to a ranch off 96 in Siskiyou County. At the last minute we decided to detour into Ashland between the two so we could have brunch here because it sounded too good to resist, and oh boy was it one of the best decisions we ever made. I will probably spend the rest of my life trying to reproduce the risotto and kale cakes and gorgonzola sauce at home, and the polenta had the perfect crispy outside and creamy fluffy interior that I can never nail in my own kitchen. [I've tried many times over the years!] My husband had an omelet with a side of pancakes and then an extra pancake to boot - I tasted it, and the fluffy texture in combination with the lemon butter was unbelievable. We would absolutely drive here from California again. Funny related note: on our first full day at our destination 2+ hours away, a staff member asked where we were from and how we'd traveled. My husband explained the drive and the Ashland detour, and the staff member immediately asked if the restaurant we had gone to was Morning Glory. He was thrilled when the answer was yes. People know!

If your approach to diet is: "everything and lots of it," then you're going to love Morning Glory. The portions are huge and the offerings are rich: waffles, pancakes, eggs, & crepes. Each dish seems to come with a saucy-side or involves a lot of cheese, or both. There are veggies and nuts too, but they seem are integrated into the cheesy, creamy sauciness. I have some dietary restrictions (low fat, low carb), so I would have appreciated a few lighter options on the menu. It's possible that I missed them. The servers were great. The food was tasty -- just too rich for me.

Delicious eggs benedict with wilted spinach added. Hearty and absolutely satisfying with the crisp hashbrown it had on the side. I also enjoyed their house coffee which was toasty and seemingly dark. Friend service and fast for a beautiful Saturday morning on their outdoor seating area.

Great food, good service, good vibe, definitely would go back. Gripes... parking lot is very small had to park around the corner. Water is warm. Flies inside are a bit annoying! The gripes were not enough to keep us away........we've gone twice in 3 days!!!

I don't even know if this place is still open. I reviewed it 14 years ago. I do remember liking it. But I did get the worst food poisoning of my entire life here. That night was miserable. I think it must have been the eggs. But I still like this place and would eat here again. I just won't be getting an egg dish. And it's been 13 years since I had that sick night so it's not like the years that followed when I became so careful what to eat as to never experience that again. I don't remember the experience just that I saw death being closer then I had felt and a part of me welcomed it so that the sickness would stop. I was afraid to throw up though and resisted that. If it were to happen now I would make myself sick as to get better. These things happen and I hope in 15 years they are still around and have grown.

First rate breakfast restaurant worth the short wait. Small parking lot so may just want to park on nearby streets. Expensive but worth it in an old timey way with a veteran service and kitchen team.

Cozy little cottage with magical breakfast food. The servers are stellar, not only are they attentive but they are personable and care that you're enjoying your meal and time at Morning Glory. It feels like you're having brunch at a dear friend's house. The food is delicious I can't wait to come back and try everything! This place is sunshine with pancakes

The crab omelette which used to be the best protein dish on the menu is no longer available. The food is mainly conventional and not sustainably grown or organic, so why are we paying high prices for an omelette I can make at home. Sadly, the Morning Glory is riding on its laurels. We will go elsewhere for a nourishing morning out!

So yum and servers were kind! Really enjoyed my time there in the bright morning. It's amazing

The best breakfast/brunch spot in Ashland. I went here three days in a row and tried a different dish each time and was NOT disappointed. Their chai latte is the bomb. Get there early but if you have to wait, it's worth it!

Great breakfast! Great service and a fun place to visit. Across the street from SOU. Will return!

Good food but don't try before noon. We arrived at 1015 and waited 45m for a table, then 15m for food. Don't come hungry. They will serve you coffee while you wait which is nice. I was a bit annoyed because there were tables waiting to pay and be cleared but they didn't have enough waitstaff to keep it turning over promptly, meanwhile the wait was super long. You get a website where you can check your place in line, but we waited 15m for a table in position 1 because they weren't being cleared. Don't try to park in the parking lot. It is very small. They should just let staff park there and not have guests park there. There are only 4 viable spots, so if you drive in it's hard to turn around, and several cars can stack up before figuring this out. We watched it happen every 10m while we waited. Food was good. Hot choc very good. I wanted more vegan options. Unfortunately the slow service means I probably would seek a shorter wait elsewhere, or just come at noon. At noon people were able to be seated immediately.

Such a cute place! Service was phenomenal and breakfast was solid! Give them a try! Huevos rancheros and Nutella crepes were a hit.

This is my favorite breakfast place in Ashland. The food is amazing. The setting is charming. The service is impeccable. But the most shocking part is the price. It is the same as every of other breakfast place around here and you get so much more. This is a win win kind of place.

From their friendly and accommodating staff (we got there about 30 min before closing and were still promptly seated!) to their delectable food, Morning Glory was an A++ brunch experience. Very glad I got to share this with my friend on her first visit to Oregon. Pro tip - get the tofu scramble with pancake substitute. Their lemon butter is just heavenly and their pancakes are the fluffiest I've ever had. Still amazing as leftovers, too

Fabulous breakfast in a delightful setting with warm friendly service. Blueberry sourdough pancakes hit the spot. AVP omelet was unique and delicious. Everything freshly prepared with reasonable timing. Will definitely return.

What a cute little establishment! I don't recommend using their tiny parking lot, which is usually full. Try finding street parking nearby which is a quick walk. I've had their avocado omelet, polenta, pancakes, and muffins countless times. They are delicious every time and the presentation is wonderful. Service is always impeccable. The team really seems to enjoy working there! The wait can be long at times, so be sure to arrive early. They have a texting system as well.

This is my favorite breakfast place anywhere. Fortunately, I had to go to Ashland a number of times over the last couple of years. We always made a specific attempt to breakfast at Morning Glory (and were bummed when they were closed, or we couldn't wait.). There's almost always a line, but that's because it's so good. Sometimes it can be a little slow too. Both are results of how good the food is!

I've only had the pleasure of eating breakfast at Morning Glory Cafe a couple of times. Although each time there was ling wait time for a table, the wait was worth it once breakfast was served. Their Monte Christo was the best rendition of this brunch staple I've ever had and is what I recommend to anyone who might find themselves dining there. The Strawberry Butter, made with fresh ripe beautiful strawberries every time, and served in a generous scoop in top of this salty and sweet delicacy, with real maple syrup, takes their Monte Christo over the top. The coffee is strong and the refills are frequent; they way I like them. I've never had a complaint about any if the service. I wish I were able to dine there more often. Cheers to Morning Glory for making my few trips to breakfast there memorable with that awesome dish.

This is an Ashland classic. Great food and great atmosphere. Lines can get long, but that happens when a place is this good.
