The 16 Best Restaurants & Hotels In Saratoga Springs

"Sweet Mimi’s usually has a line from first thing in the morning, but this is a line you should absolutely be standing in. Whether you stop in for weekend-only cinnamon rolls or still-warm scones to take back to your Airbnb, or stick around in the bright dining room for brunch dishes like lemon ricotta pancakes, you won’t be disappointed. For our money, the best move is to get a table, order a breakfast dish like the Roman Eggs with prosciutto, asparagus, and ciabatta, and grab a fresh oatmeal cookie sandwich or a slab of pumpkin bread on your way out.

My wife and I took our two sons out for breakfast at a popular local spot. When we arrived, the place was bustling with customers, and we were told there would be about a 40-minute wait to be seated. Rather than just standing around, we decided to take a leisurely stroll around the area, which made the wait feel much shorter and gave us a chance to explore a bit. Once we were seated, we looked over the menu and placed our orders. I opted for French toast, while the kids went for a classic combination of bacon and pancakes. My wife decided on a blueberry pancake, which sounded too good to pass up. When our food arrived, it was clear that the wait had been well worth it. Everything was cooked to perfection—the French toast had just the right balance of crispiness and softness, the pancakes were fluffy and rich, and even the coffee was exceptional. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, and I knew right away that this was a place we’d want to visit again. Before heading home, we decided to stop back in and pick up a few pastries for the road. The selection was tempting, and we chose a mix of different treats to enjoy on the drive back. Just like our breakfast, the pastries did not disappoint—they were fresh, flavorful, and the perfect way to wrap up our visit. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I’d gladly return to this spot in the future.

On our way back from Lake George we decided to stop in Saratoga. We did a little Google Maps search for a pastry shop and this was the one with the best reviews. We tried first to dine in, but the wait list was an hour and thirty minutes, so we decided to pick something up. Both of the pastries that we selected were delicious. Next time when we pass through here we will definitely be stopping by.

Amazing breakfast spot in Saratoga. Well worth the wait - make sure you get your name on the list, especially on a weekend. The lemon ricotta pancakes were unreal and paired well with a breakfast sandwich for a savory and sweet meal. The bakery options were crazy good.

My family and I went for breakfast at a popular local spot, where we faced a 40-minute wait but passed the time with a stroll around the area. Once seated, we enjoyed a delicious meal—French toast for me, bacon and pancakes for the kids, and a blueberry pancake for my wife—all cooked to perfection. Even the coffee stood out, making the wait worthwhile. Before heading home, we grabbed an assortment of pastries, which, like our breakfast, were fresh and flavorful. The entire experience was fantastic, and we’d gladly return in the future.

Instagram/tiktik brought us here! Atmosphere - Be prepared to wait 30+ mins. We had to wait 42 mins exactly. You walk up to the hostess and give your name and phone number. It's a little intrusive since there's already a line forming, everyone and their mother can hear your private information. Things like this always make me feel a little weird but it is what it is. Inside is super cramped. As the hours pass since they close at 2pm, it starts getting more spacious but other than that, you will hear other peoples private conversations, and they will hear yours. One of those eat and go spots. Service - just OK. Friendly and professional enough. Food came fairly quick which is a plus. However, the eggs are supposed to come with toast and they jipped me on the toast. I don't know if it was my fault or the waitress but I wanted a "coke" and she heard "coco" and proceeded to make hot cocoa which I never have and I had to have my man correct the order before the incorrect item was made and served. Anyway lesson learned for me to speak up louder. Food - Very delicious. Pancakes were soooo good and fluffy. I would come back here but I'd order for pick up next time. Not worth to dine in. Too much commotion.

Very cozy and welcoming place. The staff is super friendly and the menu is great for those with a sweet tooth like myself. I had a caramel hot chocolate and the cinnamon roll pancakes with a side of bacon. It was delicious and everything is presented well which I can appreciate since I’m a chef. My girlfriend and I enjoyed our time here and would recommend this place to people visiting the area. We also liked the little bakery case in the front and had to try a couple things on our way out. The almond cookie was especially tasty.

My first time here. And I already adore this place. I had Mimis lemon ricotta pancakes. Featured on "Beat Bobby Flay". She should have beat him. They were amazingly delicious. A savory and not too sweet dish served with blueberry compote. Her home fries (ordered mine with bacon) were amazing. And stand out from regular home fries you can have elsewhere. I couldnt resist trying her toffee hot chocolate. Piled high with whip cream. Awesome breakfast spot. The added touch is the slow 40's and 50's jazz music playing in the background. Reminded me of my Grandma's house on Saturday mornings. Cute and cozy breakfast spot. Definitely worth the stop by. Thank you for a wonderful experience. ❤️

This place was very packed and had a wait to it, which enticed me more to check out the place. Sweet Mimi’s did not disappoint. I went here for a pit-stop brunch while driving up to Canada. I’m glad my partner and I chose this place to dine. The staff was super friendly, I was having a bad day at the moment, but the cheerfulness from the waitress made me feel a lot better. The food was very good, we got the lemon ricotta blueberry pancakes and the bistro sandwich. The pancakes has an amazing hint of lemon and plenty of blueberries that covered the plate. I was hoping to have a dollop of whip cream on the top, but the side of blueberry syrup will do. The sandwich was a great choice brunch and they made my eggs-over-easy perfectly, I love runny yolks. The cheddar home fries were very good! We got an order “for one” and it was enough for the both of us, would recommend this dish a 100%. Although it was very crowded inside, it was cramped and everyone wasn’t talking over each other. The front counter definitely invites you to order some pastries. Would visit this place again :)

Incredible spot!! Pro tip: get there early or be prepared to wait. While it is worth the wait, the earlier you get there, the less likely you are to have to put your name on the waiting list. The good thing is though that they'll text you when your table is ready and they'll give you 10 minutes to return so you don't have to stand there. Their pastries and breakfast items are to die for. You truly can't go wrong with anything you order! If you don't have time to wait or don't want to, go in and grab some pastries to-go from their pastry counter. When I visited on a Saturday morning, I got there just before 9 am and waited 10 minutes for a table for two. I ordered the pumpkin cranberry French toast bake, which was topped with cranberries, vanilla Gelato and cinnamon whip cream. It was absolutely delicious! Since it was so rich, I took most of it home, which was great so I could enjoy it a second time. My boyfriend got the breakfast burrito and absolutely loved it. It was so cheesy and filled with home fries, and came with pico de gallo and guacamole on the side. We also split the homemade biscuit with raspberry jam, which was delicious. I can't recommend Sweet Mimi's enough! From the food to the service, everything is exceptional.

Delicious cozy breakfast/brunch spot tucked away. Small cafe with incredibly tasty pastries. We ordered the affogato (pictured) Bistro sandwich, blueberry lemon curd pancakes and a seasonal autumn scramble and loved it all. Took a tasty lemon bar to go that was the right mix of tart & sweet. Great coffee, service and ambiance.

We chose this restaurant based on Yelp reviews and it didn't disappoint! Sweet Mimi's is a cute and tiny, maybe 10 tables. They clearly also do a lot of bakery business in addition to dine in. We decided to share the lemon ricotta pancakes and a share an omelette. Our waitress was helpful and gave us good advice. Our food came out promptly and was hot. It was definitely big enough to share and we enjoyed every bite. We grabbed some muffins and desserts for later. I would love it if this little diner was close by as it could be a favorite.

Sweet Mimi's Cafe definitely lives up to the hype. The wait could be long but you're in a shopping district and can walk around while you wait for your table. The food is totally worth the wait! We had a "3 meal for two" kind of breakfast. Savory and sweet and their French toasts are THE BEST! We got the apple cinnamon French toast. Dining room is small but very cute!

I was in town for one night for a work trip. My best friend grew up in the area and suggested this for breakfast. Even though it was a Friday morning (during race season) there was a line of probably nearly 25 people by the time they opened at 8. Fortunately I'd gotten there 15-20 minutes early and was first in line so got in and out quickly before my meeting. Portions were huge and everything was top notch. The only thing I'd say was I wish the potatoes were a little more well done. Would absolutely be a place I'd come back to, even to the point I might plan a trip to the area with my wife just so we could come here.

WOW-WOW-WOW!! Got here around 1230 on a Monday- The hostess said there was a 35-40 min wait. They take your phone number and give you 10 minutes once your tables ready to get back to the restaurant. We opted to just sit outside the restaurant. We're glad we did because that 35 minutes was cut down to only 10. We ordered two special coffee drinks the summer scramble a southern biscuit order a home fries and one of the best bites. I've had so far in 2024 the Banofee Pie French toast! Everything was FRESH! One of the best breakfasts/brunches I have ever had. We grabbed a few treats on our way out and I'm looking forward to trying them later.

The food was delicious and generously portioned. Even my picky husband enjoyed his egg sandwich (not pictured). The scallion pancakes (not pictured) were savory and the best pancakes my son has every tried. We would absolutely recommend and come back next time we're visiting. The coconut pancakes and challah French toast were amazing. The staff was really friendly and very accommodating.

My review still remains the same as before. Food and pastries have been excellent. Been to saratoga frequently and just found this place as I was sticking to restaurants and boutiques on Broadway. Now that I found this place there us no turning back. They have been named the best breakfast spot in Saratoga for the last few years. Note this recognition comes with some wait time!! Did you know Chef Jeannette was aired on Food Network's Beat Bobby Flay? The ingredients are fresh with eggs sourced locally from Thomas Poultry, buttermilk from King's Diary, maple syrup tapped from Mapleland Farm, muffins bread from Rockhill Bakehouse and gelato from Saratoga Gelato. They have a breakfast, lunch and bakery menu. The menu includes eggs, pancakes, waffles, French toast and others. We went with the one item from each of the menu item, cinnamon pan cake, plain waffles, scrambled ends with sweet potato and veggies and berry French toast. My favorite was the French toast and they don't skimp on the berries. The toast tasted more like banana bread and was my favorite. Note that most of the items other than the waffle came from their March monthly special menu. During my prior visit I had 2 bakery items, both of which were excellent. My favorite was the raspberry pie. I definitely will continue to eat here.

Amazing king size breakfast coupled with such good service! Big shout out to the staff. Please put on your joey pants and bring your appetite to Sweet Mimi's because you're going to have a memorable breakfast that you'll fondly remember days and weeks after your visit. My brother found this gem of a place and we went in on a Sat morning. Our initial plan was to pick up coffee and a couple of pastries, but the place was bustling with a lot of pretty looking dishes so we decided to do a sit down breakfast. The cafe is cozy so it is a bit of a wait (~35 mins) but totally worth it. We put down our names, went for a stroll to work up our appetite and boy oh boy. Cheddar fries- top notch. Challah French toast- out of this world, mega biscuits, such fluffy eggs and the hot chocolate- simply amazing. Definitely one of the highlights from our trip to upstate NY!

Typically, Sweet Mimi's has a long wait - 45 minutes being the minimum. This particular Saturday morning, we arrived, a party of 6 and only had to wait about 35 minutes. Sweet Mimi's is on the smaller side, but a cozy small. Note, there isn't really an area to stand inside if you're waiting for a table, so best wait outside or in another establishment. Our table ordered eggs, omelette, croissant sandwich, hot chocolate (that was approved by the kiddos), etc. Everything was delicious. I got rye toast with my over easy eggs and MAN... that bread was delicious! The only thing I wasn't crazy about was their coffee - I like a strong, bold cup with my meal. But, the food, atmosphere and service tip the scale for me. This is a great place to come and get a solid breakfast. If you want fresh baked goods and a cozy spot to enjoy, Sweet Mimi's is where you want to go.

Service was spot on, as was the omelette, and the hot chocolate was very good however, ... the french toast was not cooked all the way through the scones were ... ok, I guess the sourdough bread was not warm although it was obviously toasted

Great selection of bakery items. Very reasonably priced. Best breakfast/brunch in Saratoga. The quality of food is always great, always seems fresh and high quality ingredients. The have a wide variety of bakery items which changes on a regular basis, and they have few seasonal specials as well. Yet to find something that I don't like here. Very friendly staff and offering great service.

I found Sweet Mimi's Cafe & Bakery on Yelp and it was close to the Saratoga Automobile Museum which was our plan for the afternoon. Since the reviews were strong we headed over. It was a weekday but the place was packed. Lucky for us, there was an open 2 top table. We were seated and decided to order two coffees and two sandwiches to share. --French toast sandwich - Very good breakfast sandwich. The challah bread was tasty. Yummy homemade sausage patty and fluffy scrambled eggs. So good paired with maple syrup. --Saratoga sandwich - Amazing! We both thought this was a fantastic breakfast sandwich. The homemade biscuit was delicious, it held up perfectly for a sandwich. The real star was the copious amounts of melty Vermont extra sharp white cheddar cheese - phenomenal! The servers were friendly and provided excellent service. Be sure to check out their pastry case, lots of tasty treats that we unfortunately didn't get to try. Delicious coffee, fresh fruit, tasty breakfast sandwiches. I highly recommend giving Sweet Mimi's a try, you won't be disappointed!

Sweet Mimi's is a must for our family when we are visiting Saratoga! If you go at the regular busy times for breakfast/lunch you can't expect a while because it is a small and quaint location, but trust me when I say it is WELL WORTH the wait. It's also conveniently located near the main Broadway strip, so you can easily take a stroll or shop a bit while you wait. The decor of Sweet Mimi's is exactly what you would envision when you think of a cafe in a smaller town. It gives Gilmore Girls quaintness with Parisian cafe feelings. When you walk in there's a pastry case near the register up front that you can grab a coffee and a pastry if that's more your vibe, or you can dine-in at tables that are half booths half chair style seating. It's such a cozy feeling inside you truly feel like you are right at home. As if the place wasn't cute enough, the food is even better. Every time we visit we always order their scone plate. Homemade scones that come to your table warm and with melted butter, YES PLEASE. My daughter is a pancake monster so her and my son both ordered a short stack of pancakes and I mean the serving was enough for me to eat. I typically get a French toast of some sort but our latest visit I stepped out of my comfort zone and got one of their specials- an avocado toast and wow was it good! Avocado toast topped with an over-easy egg and tomatoes and paired with an arugula salad. Chef's kids! My husband ordered a French toast breakfast sandwich type of deal and he said it was so delicious. The staff is also extremely friendly. Our son is only a year and a half so as you can imagine, his attention span for sitting is on the shorter side. Every waitress or employee that walked by could not have been more sweet and interacted with him. During our wait the hostess was also very nice and attentive and was constantly apologizing to us for the wait and thanking us for our patience. Truly a great experience. Can't wait to visit again when we are in town!

Note: You will wait, most likely outside, the place is small but nice inside. Baked goods greet you upon entrance. Hostess was very nice and friendly for our group of 6. kept us informed on our table. Carrie was an excellent server. Friendly and went above and beyond for our group. Food amazing. My BLT special was very large & messy but tasted great. Cinnamon Roll was shared by 6 of us and we all licked the plate :) that good. Charlie Egg Sandwich was enjoyed by most of the group. Short stake of pancakes with bacon also great. French bread was good. Portions are large. Home fries were ok but most places lack on Home fries so no stars against them. 100% recommend and worth the wait - dress warm in the winter, you are waiting outside. No pictures allowed by our group.

i came here on a friday afternoon around 1:00 during a high-traffic weekend and was seated immediately. the interior is very cute, yet it is pretty small so be prepared for a bit of a wait. i ordered a biscuit, which came with butter and jam (and was the size of my face) and the zucchini bread french toast special. the french toast had a layer of cream cheese frosting sandwiched in the middle and was covered with whipped cream and berries. this meal was nothing short of delicious. my dining buddy got the cheddar waffles special, which came with candied bacon. the candied bacon was amazing. they give you massive portions here, so we had leftovers. one thing to note about the zucchini bread french toast is the frosting will absorb into the toast over time, so if you want some kind of sauce with leftovers have syrup on deck. i've been here several other times and tried many of their menu items, and they never fail to impress me. i got one of their blueberry poptarts on the way out, which was also very good. i also ordered a white cake with raspberry mascarpone frosting which was beautifully decorated and delicious. i would highly recommend sweet mimi's for any of your sweet treat, brunch, or celebratory needs.

When I spotted a Battle Saratoga on Beat Bobby Flay and saw Mimi reign supreme, I knew I had to pay a visit to this spot during one of my upstate summer soujourns. This place delivered and then some. I couldn't resist trying the speciality of the house and item featured on the show, the lemon ricotta pancakes. I've rarely if ever enjoyed pancakes as light and ethereal and flavorful as these. Typically I will drown even the best of pancakes in maple syrup, but these were so flavorful and moist, they didn't require a drop. My mom got an egg on biscuit which was also ridiculously good. Coffee was excellent, and I got a strawberry rhubarb muffin to go that was outrageous/-more cake-y and luxurious than breakfast-y, but still delicious. Cute spot (though crowded of course) with impeccable service and everything on point. Well worth whatever wait you might need to endure for a decadent, delicious breakfast.

After 25 minute wait we were able to be seated. It's a small quaint place. Service was very good and pleasant. She's known for the lemon ricotta pancakes. I'm not sure if it's so deserving of all the hype. The ricotta nor the lemon was very prevalent. It would never be at repeat order and for $17. It's very disappointing. The Egg strata was very yummy. The coffee drink was decadent. It's quite conflicting for me if I would return. It was good, but not for what they're charging.

I don't even know where to begin. I couldn't have been happier being here and eating here. Everyone is so nice and attentive you get help from all angles. Excellent service from beginning to end. There's usually a bit of a wait so be prepared but it's just sooooo worth it. The food was amazing. Super fresh lots of options for breakfast, brunch and lunch. The menu has something for everyone savory and definitely for the sweet tooth's out there. It's got amazing homey vibes inside so you feel like you're eating on vacation and grandmas house. If you're in the Saratoga area this is an absolute must I can't wait to come back again really soon.

They were very busy on a Monday morning and we were OK to wait for an outside table. We kept track of our place using the Yelp app and we went from 9th to 1st in about a half hour, which was expected. Our waitress was super upbeat and very friendly and very attentive. My challah French toast was soooooo good. The star of the plate was the strawberry compote. My wife had an omelet that she said was excellent. A friend had recommended another place for breakfast nearby, but it turned out they are closed for vacation this week. They turned out pretty well for us, though!

Delicious breakfast and baked goods to take home. We loved the cinnamon roll pancakes, baked French toast, and autumn scramble. Friendly service on a bustling weekend morning. Arrive early to get onto the waitlist for a table.

The only downside is having to wait outside where a line forms about 7:30AM for the opening at 8AM. Inside there are seats for about 40 patrons. Now that the temperature is down to about 30F it would be nice if Jenette, the owner, would let customers in to wait at the tables even before service starts at 8:00AM as the place has the worker bees there at 7:00AM.

It's time to go Christmas shopping... and what do we do but go and have breakfast first! DD and I gabbed our wallets and set off for Saratoga to stop for breakfast/brunch at Sweet Mimi's on famous Phila Street at around 9am to get an early start on a heavy day of shopping at the Lake George Outlets. Arriving we gave our cell number at the door for a 15-30 minute wait outdoors as the place was packed. Walked around the block and checked out the store fronts (I love Saratoga). After about 20 minute wait we were seated in a full house! DD and I ordered Hot Chocolate $6. The waitress forgot the sprinkle of crushed peppermint. She said she didn't know we wanted it... and it wasn't very hot. DD ordered Pumpkin Bread French Toast, $15.95 sprinkled with sugared cranberries... very tasty. I ordered Huevos Rancheros $18.95 very tasty but not very hot. All n all priced pretty high for food that wasn't very hot!

This was our first time here during our multiple visits to Saratoga. The food was good, but biscuit was a bit dense. Bacon pancakes were a tad undercooked unfortunately. Loved the vibe of the restaurant and small feel. Server was kind but quick. I would return but maybe try something else next time.

Wow, I loved this breakfast place! It's also a bakery so we just had to try their scones as an appetizer. So many flavors, we got the cherry scone, apricot and a strawberry scone. Served warm and with honey butter and were delicious. The menu had a million things to choose from, I was very conflicted. They even had a French toast made with zucchini bread, wow. I opted to go more savory with a BEC on a biscuit (supposedly Bobby flay ate this dish) and got the cheddar breakfast potatoes on the side. My sister got the lemon ricotta pancakes that came with blueberries and a blueberry jam, great. The other people we were with also enjoyed their meals. Service was fast and friendly. We were lucky to get in after a short wait, I wish they had a call ahead process to prevent people from waiting so long near the restaurant as it's such a small place. Street parking.

Well-presented food but I'm not convinced it's worth the price tag. Maybe I'll change my mind after a repeat visit. Apparently they don't take reservations. When we came about 1 hour before closing the place was almost full but we saw at least a couple of empty tables. The staff told us that either we get on the wait list (estimated wait time 30 minutes) or take a seat outside. I believe that few restaurants are worth waiting 30 minutes on a waitlist for, we opted to sit outside. It took a while to put in our orders and then for the food to come out, so much so that one of us went in to find out whether they'd forgotten our orders. So how was the food? - Bistro sandwich: avocado, fried egg, and tomatoes on a croissant. It goes with tomato sauce that comes on the side. I wouldn't go out of my way to seek it out but a decent effort. - Pumpkin pie French toast: the whipped cream and syrup are a great complementand I enjoyed it. - Monster bar: layered dessert with banana cream, walnuts, choc chips, caramel, and coconut. Hearty and delicious. I hope they keep up the good work.

Wow this place is SO good! One of my top breakfast places I've been to. You need to get the assorted scones for breakfast. They were still warm from coming out of the oven and comes with a honey butter! I also wanted to try the their famous lemon blueberry ricotta pancakes and it reminded me of a soufflé. It was so rich and creamy and was not overly lemony. I also shared a bacon egg and cheese on their homemade biscuit. It was so good! There is no call ahead or reservations. You just have to go and hope there won't be too long of a line! But when you go they will put your name on a list. I will definitely come back again and again! It's also super cute with all the pops of pink.

We breezed into Mimi's on a sunny mid morning for a "little" pre-mineral baths sustenance. The Monday after Mom's Day they still had the specials so I ordered the zucchini bread French toast and the hubs had their challah French toast. The portions were big. And my zucchini bread was light as air. The berries surrounding my dish were all tasty and I licked the last bits of the ricotta cream off my plate. Hubs enjoyed his so much he finished every last crumb. The coffee came in two different roast strengths; medium and dark. Very good coffee. The service was warm and unobtrusive all at once. There were fresh flowers in wreaths and vases, and adorable egg pictures on the walls. They were closed for Tue and Wed (our last days in Saratoga) so we took a croissant to-go. I would definitely recommend a visit to Mimi's on any Saratoga visit.

There was 7 of us and we waited approximately an hour For a table. It was on a rainy Sunday. Place was packed! I was so excited because we came all the way from NYC. Hostess was very nice and sat us when it was our time. Server was great. I asked for the best seller and he told me about the autumn omelette I think it's called. It had Brussel sprouts, pumpkin, and whatever else..it was great!! I got those lemon pancakes they were good but a bit too mushy for my taste. Those fresh blueberries that was on top of the lemon pancakes were super sour. Maybe they should just skip when they're not in season. Serving the blueberry jam was great because it had sugar so it took the sourness away thank god! Oh the cheese biscuits were sold out but we manage to get our hands on regular biscuits and they were to die for!! So I can so imagine what those cheese ones would be like. We got some pastries to go and omg I'm mad I didn't buy more!!! Overall food was great will definitely be back next time we are in Saratoga!

Sweet Mimi's provided probably the best meal on our vacation in and around upstate, NY. The breakfast was delicious and the service friendly. The only thing is that they are so busy because everybody clearly loves it so much, so there was a wait. The baked goods looked amazing and everything we tried was great.

Quite possibly my favorite place to come to in Saratoga Springs. The food, savory and sweet is just out if this world. The service is always top notch, super sweet and attentive. It's a small place so get there early if you don't want to wait or put your name down and stroll around Saratoga. Sweet Mimi's is absolutley worth the wait!! The ambiance inside is absolutley charming and only makes the experience that much sweeter.

From the time I walked in to the time I left, I felt welcomed. As if, they were genuinely glad to have me there. The food is exceptional and the portions are well thought out. The coffee here is also very good and they offer some fantastic baked goods. The atmosphere here is calm and comforting. I would recommend this establishment if you are in the area.

In town for work and found this amazing breakfast and bakery spot on Yelp and just had to check it out. We were not disappointed at all! The food, charming atmosphere and staff were all exceptional and we thoroughly enjoyed a great late breakfast. I had one of the best omelet's I ever had and my friend had the eggs, we both had very fresh squeezed OJ and just enjoyed an incredible meal. We had the very good fortune to meet the owner Janette (a master chef from Bobby Flay's TV show) and just had a very memorable experience.

Mimi's never misses. This is one place that I always make sure to pencil in when a friend is visiting for the first time. Every time they visit after that, it's them who is asking to go! My favorite thing to get here is the bistro sandwich with bottomless dark roast coffee. The croissant is heavenly, the eggs and bacon are always cooked perfectly. Another winner is the cheddar home fries. When I went recently, their seasonal menu had truffle home fries - SO good. I would highly recommend trying something from the bakery counter as well. Everything I've ever gotten has been delicious, my favorite being the lemon bar.

My daughter and I were looking for a great place for breakfast in Saratoga. My other daughter suggested Sweet Mimi's. She absolutely raved about it, actually. It definitely did not disappoint, in fact, it lived up to all the hype. We had the most delicious omelette and shared an apple cinnamon french toast made with Brooklyn challah bread. As a native Brooklynitevnow living in Clifton Park, I knew it would be delicious and it certainly was! Sweet Mimi's staff were lovely, accommodating, and did not rush you. We got lucky and only had to wait five minutes for a table.

Everything about this place is magical from the muffins to the French toast especially the oatmeal if you're in town you have to stop in . During season there might be a 30 to 40 minute wait but it's OK take a stroll in around town. They will text you when your table is ready.

I live in NJ and when I come to Saratoga one of the first places I go to is Sweet Mimi's. Last time I was there they were out of Lemon Ricotta pancakes and I was upset because the last several times they were out of them . Our waitress Kathy went to Jeannette the owner and she made a special batch for me! That was just so wonderful! I will be a fan for li

This place lives up to all the awesome reviews! First off great service all around! You check on in and said it was going to be about 5 minutes and would give us a call. They gave us a call and we got seated right away and a server came over and got us waters as well as took our drink orders. The whole time our server made sure we were taken care of. Now onto the main part, the food! Had to try out the famous lemon ricotta pancakes and they are so good! Order these! My husband got the Saratoga sandwich and he loved it. I had the Mediterranean Omelette and got a biscuit instead of ciabatta bread. The omelette was full of yumminess and the biscuit was huge and delicious. Great fresh jam too. Also got a few goodies to go from the bakery case and all have been so good! I don't think you can go wrong with any of them, but we tried the Oreo cookie, monster bar and apple pie bar! They are so worth it! Great lovely place with lots of good food!

This spot is definitely a must for brunch. Their cold brew coffee and every dish we ordered was delicious. I highly recommend their avocado toast special for the flavor and generous portion size. Julia was our server and was very friendly and accommodating. I only wish the place was a tad bit bigger because the tables are very close where you can hear the conversations of other diners.
