Nellie’s Cafe is a great spot if your looking for a comfort, family style cooked breakfast. There portions are large for the price you pay. There eggs, hash, and toast are cooked perfectly. The atmosphere of the cafe is very welcoming, friendly, and cozy, the cafe is quite clean as well. The staff there exceptionally understanding and caring for there guests….. Aside from the small hair found on my partners plate, this cafe would have been rated a 5.
Went here for breakfast and got the eggs benny with bacon and avocado. Service was quick and friendly but it felt kind of crowded with all of the cluster of things. The food was good, but not anything special. Quite basic, which is fine. It’s breakfast. I didn’t find the hollandaise sauce watery, i thought it was good and the portions were decent as well. I’ll probably be back to try something different, plus prices are fair.
While running some errands, D suggested we stop here for a bite. He hadn’t been in years, and I’d never been so I thought it was a great idea. We were both starving and it was very cold out, what with it having snowed the last couple of days, so we popped in and were seated at a window booth. I tried the hot chocolate and Mr. Boring had water. The place is chaotic, there’s no end of random old knickknacks to look at, so it took me a while to pick what to try and in the end I went with the Nellie’s Hash done with chorizo.When the hash arrived, it was HUGE. When they say ‘mountain’ of hash browns they aren’t exaggerating. They were more like fried potato chunks than hash browns, everything was sauted well, and they were nice enough to do the eggs scrambled for me (I can’t handle runny eggs). I had sourdough toast to go with it, but it was very hard to finish everything. It’s your typical idea of diner food, lightly greasy but in a good way. I left absolutely stuffed and I needed help to clean off the plate because there was so much on it. The hollandaise was nice and thick, and there was plenty of it which is always good.When we were chatting as we were paying the bill she gave us some candy, which seems to be a thing at that place – they have a lot of lollipops and whatnot. I think next time I’d like to either try the pancakes or one of their omelettes.
Sharing my Saturday morning breakfast to you foodies. So I’ve been putting an eye on this diner every Monday when I go to work. And just this morning I stopped by to dine-in. Well I choose the window seat to have a good view of the sleepy morning Saturday as the lady server hand me a complimentary brewed coffee and glass full of iced cold water. I ordered Ukranian breakfast meal which is their popular dish if you need an extra energy for the day. So as I was waiting she hand me the newspaper. The ambiance is pretty good, I love the vintage designs and displays. The diner is very accessible to Bus stop 2 Mt. Pleasant, to early joggers and late people who just had a Friday night party. So my meal was ready, a large plate of sliced potatoes, sausage, 2 poached eggs on top of it with hollandaise sauce with small slice of orange and wintermelon and 4 pcs. of multi-grain toast. So yeah, it taste good but for an Asian girl like me, it was sumptuous that I can’t finish the whole thing. But probably for someone who needs a gigantic brekky in the way should order this meal. So my usual 2-4 hour digestion will sure be prolonged, so I had breakfast at 7am and I feel like I will have my next meal by around 3-4pm. $8 for the cheapest meal and $14 for the most expensive plate. And yeah, I know you just need breakfast, not a feast. Try it too, you will have a complimentary coffee and just spend something to munch to start your day.
The poached eggs were perfect. The bacon was great. The hollandaise was tasteless and watery. I did not know what to say when the waitress tried to get me to praise it, saying it was made from scratch. I just smiled. The so-called hash browns tasted of old grease. The place was filthy. Cups sit upside down on the table tops that have been wiped with a rag. Food was prepped near a garbage and mop bucket and outdoor coat was worn while setting tables and handling food. This clothing is illegal where there is food! Food was prepped by a long haired worker who kept flinging her hair around as she worked. The milk containers on the,table were at room temperature. I have been in better dives in New Jersey.I won’t eat here again. I wish I could give it a zero. My son’s ruben contained tough slabs of unchewable meat.
I love this place! Love the retro style of the place and the food is awesome when you’re looking for diner style food – which I always am haha. Super reasonable prices for lots of food, and they have gluten free options for several of their menu items.
Love this trendy retro cafe. The portion sizes are large so arrive hungry. The staff are alway fast friendly and most helpful They have a really fun patio as well. This cafe can get very busy at prime times .Love the fried Banana bread!
