Yummies Bistro

Finally got to try this spot that locals and tourists have told me about. Good value for the quantity and quality...I'm sure if I explored the menu more I'd find something to die for. But I was happy with a simple breakfast platter plate. Boyfriend got the quesadilla which we both enjoyed. He ended up ordering a frappe which is the beverage in the photo. He let me try his and I knew I didn't want to share so I ordered my own. It was like a milkshake - so good but not too sweet. My favorite item we got. Server was very helpful and friendly.

This place is a must go when in the island! Their breakfast is delicious. I got a jasmine green tea and the chilaquiles with the red sauce (my mouth is watering just thinking about this plate). My daughter got a hot chocolate and I love the detail they put into it! It was visually beautiful. My husband got the spi breakfast, you can't go wrong with that either. All in all, this place is the place to go if you want a great breakfast. I didn't take a picture of the food only because I went in hungry.

I love this place! the food was great! The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because they don’t seat you until your entire party arrives. Also, the chilaquiles could use a spicier and more generous salsa; they were a bit dry.

Hands down the best chilaquiles I’ve ever had on the island. I ordered half red salsa and half green salsa both were exceptional! The French toast was also so delicious! Definitely recommend. Also our waiter was so kind and talkative, really enjoyed the recommendations and assistance.

Be prepared to wait a long time! Check in, Grab yourself a coffee at the coffee station and wait outside. In my strongest opinion, the food taste and portion sizes are worth the wait! They do offer indoor, outdoor or bar seating. The hours are limited to only breakfast, brunch and lunch.

This was my first time going with friends in which I truly was excited especially since I had heard so many great things about their food. I went for the chicken and waffle plate which looked delicious, however I noticed there was a fly that was cooked in the chicken before I even cut into. I mentioned it to our waitress in which she did not seem to care much, she picked at it trying to convince that it was not a fly. I was able to get my food made again however just did not like that fact that she kept trying to prove that it wasn’t a fly and not just let it go

Delicious foods, great service, all in a gem of a restaurant buried in a little shopping center. I recommend the breakfast quesadilla, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Show up early or be prepared to wait. If you show up and there's a line, rest assured that the wait will be worth it.

One of the most popular places on South Padre Island, Yummies is a sister restaurant to Viva which was also another one of our favorite places. Yummies lived up to the hype. We visited twice and waited 30 min each time. There are fun shops nearby to check out while waiting. Service was really friendly and fast both times we went. Food was solid with large portions. The 2nd time we went, I wanted to try some lunch items because few people reviewed that side. The shrimp po-boy had a enough shrimp to fall off the sides. My friend’s hot chicken had two large chicken pieces. He had to take one off and packed it to go. Overall, great food and ambience.

We were in town for 2 days and we ate her both days! If you have a small party you will be sat much quicker, first day we walked right in, I think we waited 10 minutes to be seated the 2nd day. First of all, the coffee is absolutely amazing we tried 4 different coffee drinks, and each was special in its own way, sweet, lots of coffee flavor and just pretty to look at! The service was amazing; we were well looked after from the moment we sat down till we left but not bugged! The buttermilk pancakes are just fab, big, fluffy and yeah! the chicken and waffle was great chicken was crispy, tender and fried perfectly, while the waffle was crispy, soft and light! My wife got the Caprese BLT it was huge full of cheese maters and bacon! It also came with a big side of fries that were cooked to perfection! I can't say more other than I wish it was closer to me, I'd be there every week!

The service was decent. The ambiance was okay. The food was disappointing. I tried the shrimp tostadas. They looked amazing but tasted mediocre. My wife's salmon salad looked great but tasted so-so. It was the seafood that was the greatest let down. Because they were highly rated on Yelp, I expected so much better. The did offer a military discount which I appreciated.

On our visit to SPI, we read that Yummies was a great place to go to and a friend who knows the area and was there also agreed. We went there on our final day at lunchtime. It was bustling and there was inside seating and outside seating. One thing that I noticed immediately that it was spic and span clean. I ordered breakfast, which included a slice of French toast. It was the best piece of French toast. I think I have ever had. It wasn't soggy and it wasn't overly bread. A couple of ladies got sandwiches and loved them. This should definitely be a stop either for breakfast or lunch.

The service was quick and friendly. The decor is pretty, beach themed. Not cluttered, not old-looking. Fresh look. Open airy inside dining area. There is also outdoor seating if you prefer that. The coffee was super delicious! The new menu item Mediterranean avocado toast lacked the "toast" part of the toast. It was sort of toasted on the very end of the edges. The rest of the bread was soft. Too soft. Had to hold it from the middle to prevent it from falling apart. The flavor was just ok. It's supposed to come w chimichurri. There wasn't any that I could taste on it. The water. Nope. Don't drink the water. It tastes like the water dispenser needs to get a deep cleaning. Or any cleaning really. The best part of this meal was definite coffee. It was the star of the show for sure! The friendly service was nice too.

We've been coming to SPI for years between Christmas and New Year's. We always stay at the KOA and drive our golf cart all around for a week or so. I think on this trip we drove the cart and ate brunch at Yummie's 5 times getting different items each day. The staff are awesome no matter where you are seated. At the bar you will get Becky and she is friendly and great at recommending items. The coffees are a work of art and delicious too! A new perk on this trip was a free photo during your meal! We were sad to leave today but we will definitely be back! See you soon friends....

absolute favorite breakfast spot on south padre island. we made sure to get there early to beat the breakfast rush. everything we ordered was delicious and filled our tummies before a nice day on the island. the french toast was nice and fluffy. their drinks have cute designs just add a nice extra touch to your meal. service was so friendly, definitely looking forward to getting a chance to come back!

This is a cute spot for brunch near front of the island. I love the presentation of their dishes, whimsical and fun for the kids so shows they care. Kids get excited each time we come here. Eggs were cooked perfectly. Fluffy pancakes and quick service despite being full.

The food was delicious. I loved my cream cheese French toast with extra whipped cream. The drink was a little strong because I forgot to ask for a weak drink.

we tried to eat here the sunday after valentines day @ 11, but as expected, there was a 45 minute to an hour wait, so we tried again about 9:30 on monday. so expect a wait on weekends! its busy for a reason! the foods great! we were seated right away, i opted for hot tea service ($5) gree mango peach, it was yummy and was served with lemon & honey on the side) hubbie got pecan coffee ($4 with refills on regular menu) and he enjoyed the flavor as well. i didnt see a combo plate with what i wanted, so opted for french toast ($9) with added fresh strawberries ($2) and an a la carte egg ($2). hubbie likes benedicts, so ordered the happy face bennie ($15) with added avocado ($4). despite the restaurant being busy, food was brought out promptly. my plate was loaded with a very generous portion of french toast & strawberries. hubbies bennies looked wonderful - big fat eggs & creamy hollandaise. everything was well prepared and tasty. service was attentive & friendly. would definitely recommend this casual but upscale spot for breakfast, lunch or brunch.

This place was conveniently located close to our hotel. Breakfast here was delicious. I ordered a prickly pear mimosa and huevos rancheros along with a pancake. Pancakes were small compared to other places - which made them just right !! However $1.99 for 1 tortilla seemed a little expensive. But besides that - everything was excellent !!!!

This is one of our favorite breakfast places on the island. I always recommend this place to my friends that visit from out of town. They have unique coffee and tea options and there are lots of healthy options - hard to find in restaurants these days. The ingredients are fresh and the staff is so friendly and attentive. And the atmosphere is very upbeat, fresh and airy feeling. I've been to Yummies 100 times and I have a kick awesome experience every time.

This is a great place for morning coffee and a good breakfast. The coffee selections are great and the food selection is more than you could wish for. The service was awesome, food came out quick, and the atmosphere is nice. Everything we ordered exceeded our expectations.

No SPI trip is complete without at least once stop here to eat breakfast. Good food and service. I like any of the eggs Benedict plates. Waffles are always a good choice. Our boys can't get enough of them. It does get crowded. So get there early or be prepared to wait.

The food is delicious both breakfast and lunch. Don't forget to get a frappe too! The restaurant is so well staffed that you are cared for quickly. Cleanliness is superb. The staff is busy refreshing every spot in the restaurant. Yes the bathrooms were not ignored. We went back several times during our vacation time on the island.

Such a cute little restaurant with delicious food. The wait wasn't long upon arrival and got seated quickly. The food had a nice presentation to it and it was absolutely delicious. The coffee had a very cute decoration on top and was made to perfection.

I've dined at Yummies a handful of times in the last 2 months and couldn't be more impressed with the quality of food they're making and the experiences they're creating for their clientele. For starters, everyone from the waitstaff, to baristas, to the hostesses are welcoming, friendly and attentive. Cris in particular knows how to keep his guests coming back. Hats off to one of the most personable and hospitable humans on the island. His food recommendations were 10/10, if you can sit in his section you're in for a real treat. After pickle balling in the sun next door for 4+ hours, breakfast didn't always sound appealing to me. My go-to has become the Yummies Turkey Wrap: smoked turkey, avo, tomato, spinach, feta and sprouts. Perfect for any time of day, fresh tasting, and enough to fill the tank minus that starch heavy feel. Yummies feels like home, yes they stay busy in the AM but for good reason. Stop by early and drop your name if you just aren't down for the long wait time (ordering to go is also an option). Or an even better tip would be to play pickleball next door while you wait for your table (get some games in, decide when you want to eat, gauge the wait time and go from there). This place is super relaxed, they're on island time after all.

There was a wait to be seated so I sat at the bar. Rebecca was my waitress and she assisted me with making an order. Everyone around me was ordering all kinds of cold and decorative coffee so I went along with that program and got a piping hot cup of coffee that had really good favor. The restaurant reminded me of a ma & pa kind of establishment. I ordered the Belgian waffle with strawberries ( fresh not syrup). It was so delicious and just slightly crisp on the outside. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Food is fantastic, ambiance is strip mall restaurant with no view of water, service is top notch, and coffee is cool with the artwork on top. Good visit but a bit pricey for breakfast fare

While the food is classic brunch faire, the service and amazing coffees and drinks makes it stand out.

Be prepared to wait a long time! Check in, Grab yourself a coffee at the coffee station and wait outside. In my strongest opinion, the food taste and portion sizes are worth the wait! They do offer indoor, outdoor or bar seating thus providing the guest with a great ambiance no matter what you pick. The hours are limited to only breakfast, brunch and lunch.

This is always a great breakfast spot when you're on the Island. The staff are upbeat and friendly. The food is fresh and pretty fast even with the morning rush. Great family atmosphere. Anyway, give Yummies a try if you find yourself in SPI!

Such a lovely little breakfast spot. My boyfriend and I came in right at opening so there wasn't a wait and the staff was super kind and welcoming. They are very quick with cleaning tables of plates and trash. The food came out quick, and was good for the pricing. Portions are for sure worth it if you are preparing for a long day at the beach!

Good portions are great. Nice place to go to fur a decent breakfast. Chai tea latte is excellent.

Oh my gosh! The food here is awesome. We had buttermilk pancakes and breakfast tacos. They were both amazing. The pancakes were the fluffiest I have ever seen. It is so clean and bright in here. And the service is awesome also.

Coffee was beautifully excellent! Food was delicious and service was GREAT! Updated interior had a beachy feel. We will be a repeat customer!

This was my first time at yummies and I thought it was amazing. Truly outstanding. We got the buttermilk pancakes, mickey mouse pancake, and the happy eggs Benedict. The butter milk pancakes were so delicious and huge they were soft on the inside and nice and crunchy on the outside. The mickey mouse pancake was super cute had lots of fruit and my daughter loved it. Then we also got the happy eggs Benedict. It was adorable and super yummy. The waiters are so nice and super fast. The little place smells really good and its very clean. This place is also very summery and so pretty. We also got the dulce de Leche. It was beautiful and so delicious. Also if you want to come here expect to wait. There will always be one but its so worth it.

The smoothies were great!!! I loved the cute little heart on the strawberry smoothie! The salad was refreshing with the vinaigrette and the bagels were too salty. Would definitely recommend!

When we first discovered Yummies, it was an eat-there-once-on-vacation place. But now it's become an eat-there-every-day-on-vacation place. Get there early...it's busy because it's GOOD (and it has the best servers on the island).

The food is amazing. We make sure to eat breakfast here not just everytime we're visiting SPI but sometimes every day we're here. Staff is always accommodating and friendly, especially Becky at the bar...she's a true gem. Highly, highly recommend!

We've been coming to S Padre to vaca for over 5 years and finally tried Yummies & WOW. Amazing coffee options, breakfast is amazing and lunch is just as impressive. It's a twist on an old school diner and new age brunch spot. Ate breakfast here two days in a row (my wife had brunch the second day). If you're a fan of scratch made fluffy biscuits - OMG the Biscuit & Gravy is Super Amazing! I spoiled myself for my birthday and added whipped topping & cream cheese to a side order of French Toast. My Farmers omelette was delicious. My wife ordered the Philly which was amazing (just needed an au jus or mayo or something to accompany it). But definitely worth a visit!

C U T E R E S T A U R A N T My friend kept bragging up this place, so I finally stopped in to have a bite. The menu was pretty good, and they had an outstanding coffee selection. Apparently a signature of Yummies. I opted for the Shrimp Quesadilla, one of my standards. It did say it was on a spinach tortilla, so I wasn't surprised when it arrived. However, it certainly wasn't a traditional quesadilla, but that was on purpose I'm sure. I didn't really get my socks knocked off, there was hardly any cheese. And there were a few sprinkles of yellow cheese that weren't even melted on top. So it was ok, but not what I really prefer, just not my 1st choice, My server was a delightful young lady, so attentive! I promised to return and have fancy coffee and Key Lime Pie. The entire place was clean, upbeat and cheery. With lots of happy looking people. G O O D V I B R A T I O N S

The food and service were AMAZING!! My wife got the Yummy Burrito and I had the Ranchero Santa Cruz but with scrambled eggs--food and drinks were delicious and the service was A++++, specifically (and forgive me if it's not her name) Becky!!! Would HIGHLY recommend this restaurant and will return

There's no way I can sum up in one review how amazing I think this cafe is. Every time we are in town, we try to go every single day! All the food I ordered was fantastic and I love getting the coconut zesta coffee. Who would have ever thought that coffee with lime zest on top could be good?! I have dreams about it! It gets very busy here, but the service is great and they will get you taken care of fast. On days with nice weather we love sitting outside too.

This place was absolutely delicious! I was a little hesitant walking in but once we walked through the doors we knew we found a great place. The beach atmosphere was relaxing and trendy. The place smelled absolutely heavenly and the food was delicious. Our waitress gave us some great suggestions and everything we selected was delightful.

Arrived at 9:00 am and seated right away. The waitress immediately came to our table and the coffee delivered within minutes was dark, rich and piping hot as it should be. We ordered breakfast and could not have been happier with our selections. Hubby asked for the French toast with a side of bacon. His grin said it all! I ordered one of the breakfast sandwiches made with fresh spinach, an egg and bacon. It came with at least two cups of fresh grapes, pineapple and strawberries ... an unexpected delight! Totally happy with our first visit to Yummies.

Good service! Good food! Menu is so good it's hard to decide! Great atmosphere too! We would eat here again!

Recommend their frozen coffees, have to get one everytime I come. Food is good, they have alot of healtier options as well.

The food and service is great here - we come everytime that we are on the island visiting.

What a cool place for breakfast...BLOWS the Hotels breakfast into a 3rd world status lol Coffee was perfect and my eggs were delicious.

This place is pretty decent, but pretty average really except the Spanish Macchiato. Ambiance feels like a diner. It had a long wait. We opted to sit on the patio, but at least 1/3 of the fans weren't on or weren't working. I got the Gulf Coast Grits, which were tasty but TBH based on the description--"Sautéed shrimp, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, and cheddar Jack cheese combined with Cajun style grits, served with flatbread"--I would have expected the toppings to play more front and center. It was really just gooey cheesy grits with TINY bits of chopped shrimp and veggies in it. It tasted good, but wasn't what I wanted. Hubby had the lox bagel which was again pretty standard. Would be a 3 star experience except that Macchiato earns them an extra star.

Food was fantastic and the service was on point.The wait was 45 min..and I see why .This is the best place to try in SPI.

Went for breakfast today morning, had to wait 20ish mins for outside table, it was pleasant and vibe is like a happening place, there coffee sucks, that's why 3star, if you're particular about your coffee or espresso, wouldn't recommend this place, but if you're there mostly for food or you have sweet tooth and love you espresso drink sweeter than sugar, you'll gonna love this place!! Drinks ordered, Spanish macchiato( there most popular drink), hot chocolate and drip. Food, you can order there lunch menu too in the morning, so kiddo ordered chicken quesadillas, I got souther scrambled, hubby got chilaquiles. Coffee here sucks that's the reason for 3stars, morning coffee is a very important for me, my Spanish macchiato was sweeter than sugar, I dunno how they did it, and that after I asked them to cut down on condensed milk, then asked for a espresso shot to mix it with, so my coffee was at room temp by the time they bought the espresso shot, even after mixing the extra shot, it was still sooooo sweet, so ordered cappuccino, and really could taste that burnt espresso, and by this time I had already wasted $12ish on my coffee and that burnt espresso had ruin my taste buds, so just gave up, this made my whole breakfast thing miserable. Hubby told his drip was okay, kiddo liked his hot chocolate. Food: everything was good. They're busy, so service is okay, you have flag them down, when you need something.

I was a little nervous about waiting in a line and finding no parking after reading some Yelp reviews but this was not our experience. I'm not sure if the end of July is a less busy time but we came here around 10 am on a weekday and found parking with no problem. We were seated right away at an outside table. There was a 15 minute wait if we wanted to eat indoors. This place has such good food and the presentation is at another level! I highly recommend their Spanish macchiato! It's a little sweet but delicious. My husband and I had omelettes. Son had chicken and waffles and daughter had the chorizo Benedicts. Everything was fabulous! Service was excellent. Alyssa was our server and she took great care of us. If you are in South Padre you cannot miss out on this place. It would be a shame!

Yummies Bistro really fits for the name of this restaurant. I had the eggs with ham and hash brown breakfast and it was delicious! The service was great! Our server Alyssa was very attentive and nice. I had the Milky Way latte which consisted of espresso, caramel, chocolate sauce, and steamed milk, topped with whipped cream. It was phenomenal! It looked too good to drink. They have outdoor patio seating which is where we sat. We live in Albuquerque New Mexico but the next time we're at South Padre Island we will definitely be trying out Yummies Bistro!

Food is always amazing. Staff is really nice. They are super helpful when dealing with food allergies. The wait times can be long on the weekend but it is definitely worth the wait.

Yummies serves breakfast all day and there is often a wait as they do not take reservations, but it is worth it! You can tell it is a staple of the South Padre area and a must if you're hungry for a memorable brunch. The menu is huge so it's difficult to decide what to order, but no worries, anything you get is amazing! I finally decided on the Rancheros Santa Cruz and was not disappointed. In place of the sourdough bread, I had a homemade tortilla, which was perfect. My husband had the grilled ham and gouda sandwich on the lunch menu. Also delicious. The portions are large and the place is lively, noisy, and bustling. The name speaks for itself. Most definitely yummy!

Great little place! Good food reasonably priced and Service was excellent! Had the breakfast burrito with beans. Hubby had egg sandwich with fresh fruit, and coffee. All were excellent will be back

Food was beautiful and amazing must try! We come here for breakfast every time we visit South Padre.

Our server, Mizz , was very nice and knowledgeable. He gave great recommendations. Food was beyond good!! Highly recommend.
