The 20 best breakfast and brunch in Manhattan

I was in Manhattan on business and wanted something a little special. The Chef came highly recommended by a friend, so in spite of the crazy construction detours, Google got me to your place. The breakfast service was fast and friendly and very helpful to a first-time customer. My order of hash and eggs was excellent, and the serving was very generous. I was sad to leave some on the plate. If you need a great breakfast in Manhattan, I highly recommend The Chef.

My husband and I originally came here because we love the tv show Somebody, Somewhere. We were super excited to try it, but we were very disappointed. We walked in on a Wednesday morning, it was pretty quiet and not too busy. There were two waitresses working. My husband had steak and eggs, he asked for his eggs over medium. I had the French toast and the hash browns, with a side of hollandaise. Both were an extreme disappointment. The food did not live up to the standards of the tv show whatsoever. His eggs were soup and my hash browns were completely underdone. His steak was rubbery, small and fatty. The middle of my hash browns were mush. The hollandaise was disgusting and tasted like no other hollandaise we had ever had. The first waitress that came over acted like it wasn’t a big deal, but did apologize. Our actual waitress was nice enough to take my husband’s meal off of the ticket. I just want to warn everyone who saw Somebody, Somewhere that it is nothing like the tv show makes it out to be and you will be disappointed. It’s very overpriced and underwhelming.

Popped in for breakfast at this busy spot and I wasn’t disappointed. Excellent service and food and a relaxing atmosphere all made for a great experience. Had the classic egg breakfast, coffee and oj, and a pancake. Yum!

Crab Cake Bennie. Crab cakes over cooked, chewy. English muffins sawed with a knife. Potatoes may have been the worst I've had in 61 years. Hollandaise sauce was cold. Good coffee. Waitress didn't care about my opinion, walked away when I started to tell her about my experience.

I finally got the chance to eat at this restaurant for the first time since it opened, and let me tell you, it was worth the wait! I've been wanting to go for ages, especially since there's always a crowd of people enjoying their breakfast. Today, I finally indulged, and the food was absolutely amazing! What a delicious experience!

The food was excellent! The service and the location were outstanding! I look forward to going back!

We will definitely be back! The biscuits and gravy are amazing! So rich and creamy! The biscuit has just the right amount of crisp on the outside and soft inside. The coffee is pretty strong. We like that though. After I added my sweetener and creamer, it was so delicious! The toast and warm strawberry jam, which is more like a syrup, was also delish! Corned beef hash was full of big chunks of meat. Yum! The downsides. Steak was a little tough, but seasoned well and still really good. I'd get it again. Homestyle potatoes were so spicy with black pepper, I couldn't eat them. Jay loved them though. Next time I'll get over medium eggs as the over easy was soooo runny. Even the whites. All in all, the good stuff so outweighs the not so good, I can't wait to try more stuff! UPDATE! Everything I've had here is good, amd we come here quite a bit! We started to get a half order of the Hash to share, it's so delicious! The steak didn't work for me, but the potatoes have never had the pepper ⁰problem since the first time. The Dang Quesadilla is really good. I often get the oatmeal with crispy bacon. I love it!

I understand why this place is so popular in Manhattan. It's a small bistro and coffee shop with a large menu! Their croissant sandwich and mimosas are fairly good and serve their purpose. The environment is surprisingly quiet for its location. It's a great spot for studying or connecting with friends, with plenty of space for both adults and children!

Visiting from out of town and wanted to try a new coffee shop each morning. Our final day we went to Bluestem and now we wish we had tried it first! I asked what she would recommend for an oat milk latte and she said the “honeycomb” works perfectly with oat milk flavors. She was so right! Best latte I’ve had in quite some time. Perfectly balanced, the espresso is bright, and they use the right oat milk yay! Literally drinking it right now while I write this hehe

Food was ok curly haired guy with the mustache was kind and welcoming , wish the customer service came across with the quality of their drinks. Coffee shot was pulled and was burnts with bits and pieces, maybe proper training is needed. Food was not bad but not sure I would come back for coffee.

Bluestem Bistro is a local favorite for a reason. The coffee is smooth and consistently excellent, perfect for a quiet morning or afternoon break. Their lamb gyro is easily the best in town tender, flavorful. The scones are a surprise standout: fresh, and genuinely the best around. Great food, great coffee, and a cozy atmosphere that keeps you coming back.

Great little place. Food was good and service was friendly and prompt. Glad they allow pets sitting outside!

Been here a few times with a great atmosphere inside or outside. Whether it is studying inside with great coffee or other drinks option or bring a dog and hanging out on patio furniture. Service and the taste of food has always been wonderful. I just figured out I am slightly lactose intolerant and they were extremely helpful with needed substitutions and questions. They also have few options for vegetarians or vegan food and they also have paleo food options. Most recently I had a gyro and smoothie. There patio is dog friendly as long as there food behaved and stay off the nice patio furniture.

I visited the Bluestem Bistro for the first time today with my two brothers and had an enjoyable experience! The cashier greeted us when we walked in and said thanks when we left, which is a very hospitable thing to do so I appreciate that. The space is quite large offering both indoor and outdoor dining. I liked that there is a private dining area for groups that want to meet together, and that the outdoor seating area is dog friendly! The inside overall is airy and inviting which makes it a great space for studying or catching up with a friend. The cortado I ordered was prepared well and definitely did the job caffeine wise! The biggest downside I noticed was it is quite hard to find vegetarian friendly items on the menu. The veggie focaccia is really the only vego friendly item that has some substance to it so I ordered that with pretzels. What I liked about the meal is how soft the bread was and all of the ingredients on the sandwich were very fresh! What I did not like and the reason for docking 1 star came down to lack of vegetarian friendly options, the side of pretzels were sort of dumped on the plate from a larger bag and I think for the price of the meal the value just wasn't there for me. The sandwich itself could use more ingredients on it especially since again its the only vegetarian sandwich available. I think adding some onion, tofu, extra peppers, black olives, anything really I mean there's a lot of veggies that could make this sandwich ten times better and more filling. Just a suggestion! For future I would recommend others check out this cafe and play a game or get a coffee. If given the chance to come back again I would give Bluestem Bistro another try.

Went through drive thru for a quick breakfast while visiting family in Kansas. A scone and cinnamon roll. Plus an iced coffee. My daughter loved the iced coffee. Bakery items were very good. They have a free membership to earn points, so don’t forget to sign up! Drive thru worker was very nice and helpful when ordering.

Soooo delicious! Had a hand pie and the crust was so flakey, Devine. Coconut cream cold brew fantastic. Highly recommend coming in to this delightful cozy bakery.

Love all the Radina’s coffee shops, but the Bakehouse is extra charming and has a more exciting feel. The bakery is large and has high ceilings. The cafe itself can get quite busy — especially on weekends— but is nonetheless charming and feels like a community hub. If you’re a Manhattan townie, you’re very likely to bump into people you know at Radina’s Bakehouse. Took one star off of the “atmosphere” due to a lack of soft/comfy seating (there is some, but not as much as I’d prefer) and the generally crowded line for drinks (again, mostly on weekends).

Friendly staff and nice quiet atmosphere. The quiche and breakfast burritos were good as were the drinks we got.

Bread and pastries are perfection. The hot tea is wonderful. Their sandwiches are made fresh and are lovely.

This place is so unique to the area and offers a quiet setting that is perfect for work, school, and leisure. Thanks!!

Excellent bread and yummy pastries, cookies and we really like their muffins...delicious sandwiches, the quiche is another favorite of ours! We aren't coffee drinker, but there is a great tea selection! And my most favoritest part of being at Radina's is the waitstaff...smiling, happy, positive and friendly...seems like the people who work there like their jobs, so nice!❣️

Arrow is one of my favorite places in town. If I want to try out new drinks, socialize with coworkers, and hang with friends this place checks all the boxes. Not only that, I can always expect a warm welcome and a friendly face! I wish more places would make me feel the way I do when I walk through the front doors. I gave 5 stars because that was the upper limit. Definitely recommend this place for the chill vibes alone!

First time here and not sure if I’ll be back or not. Ordered the honey vanilla chai latte which tasted like milk with a pinch of flavor. The banana bread was also dry and not as moist or flavorful as banana bread should be. Maybe I’ll get a coffee and a breakfast sandwich next time I go but very subpar from what I’ve heard about it. Bummer. Service was great though! Loved the person working - very nice and generous.

Absolutely nothing negative towards staff, they were very friendly. My rating is because the food and drinks did not reflect the prices. Two friends came with me. One got the chili lime burrito, the other got the smoked chicken burrito; There was very little chicken and both tasted the same. I had the pumpkin bread which was good, however the coffee was not in my opinion. I got the 12oz iced sugar baby latte with oat milk; I generally like drinks with the flavor combo of this drink but it had a weird aftertaste. This could have just been a me thing, but for a $7.50 latte I was pretty disappointed.

I’ve been a loyal fan of Arrow Coffee—their quality, atmosphere, and commitment to community have always set them apart. That’s why I was disappointed by their recent customer email titled “Thoughts on Inclusivity,” which included overt political commentary. In an increasingly polarized world, many of us turn to places like Arrow for a sense of normalcy, connection, and good coffee—not for political positioning. While I support any business’s right to express their values, I believe there’s a line between standing for human decency and making statements that risk dividing or alienating part of your customer base. Arrow is still a great café, and I genuinely hope they continue to focus on what they do best—serving excellent coffee and creating welcoming spaces for everyone, without veering into political discourse.

I've been a fan of Arrow and the associated businesses ever since I moved to Manhattan over a decade ago, and just realized I don't think I've ever left a review. From the tiny OG coffee spot on the back side of the current Claflin location to the Pool House (RIP) to the Bodega and Arrow Cocktail, the focus has never wavered- supreme hospitality. 13/10, will be back.

I haven't been to them all, but this is my favorite coffee shop in Manhattan so far. The coffee was delicious. They have an excellent roast and steam the milk to the perfect temperature.

Arrow Coffee has awesome coffee and wonderful pastries. I have gotten several pastry items over the last two holiday seasons for my family. They have so many items to choose from, and there are always vegan and/or gluten-free options to choose from if you need those. I highly recommend this coffee shop. Here are a few photos of the various pastry items I have gotten. I didn't get a photo of the macarons quickly enough - one got eaten first!

My husband and I stopped in on a busy Sunday mid morning for brunch. His breakfast burrito was massive and had an assortment of sauces to pair. My French toast was just the right amount of sweetness with fruit that came with it. Food was delicious, and great portions for the price.

IMO, Full Circle is the best Breakfast/Brunch spot in Aggieville... I've been wanting to try the French Toast for some time and finally did today and it exceeded expectations. It's gotta be the best French Toast in Manhattan... Chef Christian did a fantastic job as the attached photos will attest!!! "PRO TIPS": -- Being diabetic, I do my best to control my sugar intake, so I ordered it without the whipped cream and powdered sugar. -- Also, I brought my own sugar free syrup, which Full Circle has no problem with. -- Being a bacon lover (who isn't), I ordered an extra side of bacon and made my version of a French Toast Breakfast Sandwich... it was wonderful!!! I will definitely have this again :) :) :) -- I also want to note that the service here is consistently postive, friendly and fun... Full Circle is definitely a favorite!!!

Normally, I do quite a bit of review before going to a restaurant but this one came recommended so I decided to give it a try. I was quite surprised how good the food was! I did the breakfast sandwich and have no regrets! If I go back, I will try something different but it was quite good.

Awesome brunch spot in Aggieville. Friends and family gathered for brunch before a basketball game. We were seated with a minimal wait, service was great and food came out pretty quickly. We had French toast, biscuits and gravy and the chicken and waffles. All were great, but I highly recommend the French toast of chicken and waffles. We also had bloody Mary’s and mimosas both of which were also great. Highly recommend this spot and I hope to be able to check out their night life scene soon.

I had the pleasure of enjoying breakfast here, and it truly exceeded my expectations. Each dish had a personal touch, with food and drinks that were absolutely delicious—from the espresso martini to the freshly prepared eggs and sides. The service was attentive, and the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. I can’t wait to visit again! Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a made-from-scratch breakfast with top-notch service!

The place is clean, the staff is friendly, the service is fast, and the food is great. I just had the best avocado toast ever, we’ll be coming back often. Highly recommend!

Newly remodeled restaurant makes the dinning atmosphere really relaxing and cozy. We ordered Chicken & Waffle, Avocado Toast, All the Meats Omelet and the Full Circle breakfast. Chicken & Waffle is the best. Avocado toast is a great choice for vegetarian with eggs. The All Meats Omelet has 4 eggs +bacon+ sausage+ham+hashbrown will fill your hungry belly for sure. What a interesting dinning trip to Aggieville!

Pros: good friendly service, clean, product variety. Cons: basic donuts, college town effort, This a very typical donut location. For transparency we did show up about an hour before closing and got donuts at a discount. I believe they were buy one get one half off. The girl behind the counter was friendly and helped out with all of my mother-in laws questions.

Great team each time we've visited. Yummy treat. Don't miss their late night Varsity Truck or a grilled cheese mac-n-cheese.

We were hoping that this would be a wonderful experience based on the reviews and the atmosphere of the location. Hope was strong when we ordered our food even though the two people working up front were busy trying to watch a football game on a tablet instead of working the counter. All of that faded when we tried the actual donuts. These were the most bland and tasteless donuts we have had and they didn't even taste fresh. The bacon on top of the maple bacon donut was absolutely disgusting. It literally tasted like grocery store salad bacon, it was chewy and not crispy and at times completely inedible and I had to spit it out. The trash cans were overflowing and the bathroom was a complete wreck and disgusting. Their coffee was also disappointing and tasted cheap. I would not recommend this place for donuts and would look elsewhere in town there are much better options that are not as flashy because they put their love into the food and not into merchandise that overflows the entire seating area.

This is my go to place for donuts it is so delicious!! And it’s super clean, the people are nice and it’s in a great part of town!!

Great variety of affordable gourmet style doughnuts. Love the many varieties and the appealing look and presentation. Very nice and clean shop. The taste of the doughnuts were very good and tasted exactly how you expected from the name of the item you order. Delicious

Would definitely recommend planning a birthday party here, they charge only $6.50 per child that attends the party and each child gets 2 donuts to decorate, they also give the option to play with donut dough! The staff was SUPER HELPFUL, friendly and always ready to help. In the past I have also gone here on occasions for a quick sweet treat, but the experience I had today definitely tops the cake. Keep up the good work Varsity Donuts!

This is the most amazing donut shop! I've been to places like voodoo but nothing beats varsity. They have great flavors and unique donuts. My absolute favorite is the blueberry Otis, it's like blueberry muffin batter that melts in your mouth. The staff is awesome and so is the location, you can play games, the piano or just talk donuts.

The quality has really gone down hill over the past few years. I have gotten the salads here for years and they now just serve you bagged lettuce with half a tomato and over cooked chicken. They don't even put any cheese on a salad which is absolutely ridiculous. They raised the price and took ingredients off. I would suggest going to The Chef or any other breakfast place that will actually take the time to make their food worth the money. It seems like they don't care much about giving their customers a decent salad and want to see how little they can give you for a higher price while caring nothing about how it tastes. Definitely won't be returning as it seems like the owners have decided profit over quality is the goal in my opinion. They also charge over $5 for over cooked bacon. It's just a sad money grab for this establishment now.

This is one of two places the locals go for breakfast. If you are local, you know the other one. Early Edition is my #1a or #1b depending on mood but its always #1. This is breakfast done right. You have your usuals - eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns. Actually, thats what I order, The Usual. Im not kidding, its on the menu. But you also have more "expansive" selections. Want a Californian? Yeah, order that and get some avocado goodness. Want the biggest pancakes you have ever seen? Got that too. Steak. yup. Salad? That too. There is pretty much something for everyone. Service is always cheerful and fast. Huge qualifier - if you are here on a game weekend or move in/move out you are going to wait for a table and wait a bit longer for your food. If you come on a game weekend with 10 people, add even more time. You will get your food and it will be great but you have to allow extra time. The volume in the dining room varies too. Again, game weekend and its going to be loud. And if you are here on a game weekend, know what you want to order, eat and move out because 20 other people are lined up. The rest of the time? Slow down and enjoy the coffee. Oh and wear purple.

I had such a great experience with Trinity’s customer service. They were attentive, professional, and truly went above and beyond to make sure all my food was right . It’s rare to find a team that cares so much about their customers, but Trinity really stands out. I felt valued and taken care of from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Our waitress Julia “Jewels” was the best!! She made our visit so fun and welcoming! It felt like we were at a best friend’s house for breakfast!! ❤️❤️

Waitress was perfectly attentive, was always right there refilling my husband’s coffee and for anything else we needed. Never had to wait even a minute on her. Food was good and came out very quickly! Prices good, good-sized portions, overall an excellent experience!

VERY popular place. If you have really bad anxiety or not a fan of too many people, I recommend attempting to arrive as soon as it opens . Lovely people., delicious food. So far I've had a handful of items on the menu and I would have to say my recommendations would have to be Steak and Eggs w a substitute of extra eggs in the potatoes spot . Regardless of what you're ordering, you're bound to enjoy it! There was this "Muffin of the Day" I purchased yesterday that was divine! I believe it was a "lemon, orange" muffin.

The food was fast and great.the staff was friendly and help full. It was my first time there but I will go back. Left full and our food was hot I had a really good visit

I’m not sure if it’s because it’s a Monday morning or this is a normal….. but the food didn’t have much taste. Sadly, salt and pepper couldnt help either. The waiter was friendly, very nervous though. I understand ihop is a chain and you know it won’t be as good as a ma and pa cafe, but I was slightly disappointed. The omelette was good and had good flavor. The biscuits and gravy didn’t, it tasted like flour.

IHOP serves the best comfort food all day! Our service was great and everyone left full and pleased.

Asked for pancake flavor not currently available and the kitchen made it happen. Food out quick. Service excellent. Prices good. Only reason not 5 star was temperature in restaurant was a little cooler than would have liked.

Ill start this off by saying the manager here is wonderful and always seems to be working very hard to keep this place running. We've been here weekly for the past 8 months since our son was born and the food has always been kind of bad and the service hasn't been much better but there were never downright rude. Our server today Amanda V as it reads on the receipt was the rudest most disrespectful waitress to my wife and I and to an elderly lady at the table next to us. We will not be returning Early Edition is a little further but its worth the drive.

I went in at 9am Sunday morning. I was in a group of six, four adults and two children. We were seated right away and given menus. After that, we waited. And waited some more. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy, maybe 50% occupied at the most. I noticed that a number of employees were just standing around near the front of the restaurant, acting like they were on break. No good, folks. We left after waiting 10 minutes without even being acknowledged that we were there. I took my group to another nearby breakfast place where they appreciated our business. The only excuse there can be for employees standing around is that they don't have effective management. I'll stay away from this place.

Food was hot and fresh but server never wrote my order down. Got coffee and then he brought me a cup Got food before I got my coffee didn't get what I ordered and never came back to check on me. Came back to place check on table and then waited until I gave him payment for my meal. While eating I could hear employees being loud from kitchen area about personal stuff.

If I can give 0 stars I would. Second time coming to the establishment. 1st time I waited 1 hour to be served and was never properly service while servers were always helping others and people getting there food before me as well as people coming 30min after me getting served. When I go to pay for my check, one of the servers tells me "You have to pay before you leave". Which ended my suspicion that I was being discriminated against. As for today, I come in thinking it was a bad day they were having so would give the a second chance. 1 1/2 hrs, no food and they finally tell me they lost my order and I will have to order my food again. I do, 1/3 of the way of eating my food server comes to me asking if I was ready for my check, mind you it isn't busy in the establishment. I wasn't give a discount for having my food brought late and wasn't give an apology for it as well. I know where I am not welcome and will never come here again. Hope this place gets investigated for there shady practices.

This is such a good burger joint! My first time hitting this place up. I'm not from around here and have seen this on google maps itself when looking for food, but I finally committed and gave it a go. Shame I didn't try this sooner. It's like a smash burger, minimal ingredients and good flavor. I even grabbed myself a corn dog and that was cooked well also I wish I was in town longer to have come back and tried some more options because the menu here is huge. I'm sure it can satisfy most cravings. This place looks old school alone and it's comforting, with a hot meal, and great atmosphere. The wait wasn't long and the staff was nice.

Manhattan can certainly be proud of this family-owned burger icon – a local institution since 1964. The amazing original sign still beckons from the hill, its neon well-maintained and working! When I stepped inside, I was immediately greeted by a friendly staff, who quickly took my order and delivered a delicious burger combo that did not disappoint. If you are a local who may be thinking that you haven't visited in a while — GO! And if you are a visitor, like I was, definitely put it on your itinerary. Highly recommended!

Great family dining. Large indoor seating in a sunny room. Chicken strips and onion rings better than average. Not your ordinary fast food place. Hubby says it's the best hamburger in the business!

Old fashioned burgers 🍔. I love the nostalgic atmosphere. Fast sevice.

We were in town for a wedding and this is near our BNB. Incredible! We came back the next day for breakfast 🤤

Food was good, drive in style. Prices were fair! The gal who took our order was friendly, but my issue was how many dirty tables there were. There wasn’t a lot of people in the restaurant but for some reason, there was a lot of workers… but not a lot of them were working. There was 8 tables that needed to be cleared/cleaned off and it was very obvious the girl who was cleaning them, didn’t want to be there. With that being said, the food was fine and I would go back if others suggested it.

Traditional burger joint that still puts out very good food. Staff is great and prices reasonable. If you are in the area for a few days, it is definitely a great place to get a good, quick burger. The ice cream is pretty good too.

Gave me normal nuggets instead of grill nuggets, and a normal Dr Pepper instead of diet. Normally not a bad place maybe just had a rough day but ruined my whole meal because I do my best to track all my macros so I couldn’t eat or drink it. Didn’t feel like driving across town to get it fixed. Normally better than that.

Very disappointed when I asked for chicken minis and I got this. The girl that I called at the store was very helpful and gave me my money back so I didn't have to drive clear back across town.

The person who took our order was GREAT! Very pleased with my experience at this location just because of this person. The atmosphere was that of most fast food chains. Busy during the lunch rush, noisy, but very clean and seemed to be well managed and staffed for the time of day. The food....for a place that only serves chicken, it was really, very unimpressive and, if I'm being honest, borderline unenjoyable. I got the spicy chicken for myself and the chicken nuggets for my kids. The spicy chicken had a soapy aftertaste that was incredibly off-putting. The level of spice was good (not so spicy I couldn't taste anything else but spicy enough to warm my tongue and encourage me not to waste any of my drink lol). The chicken nuggets were extremely basic and just....bland. The waffle fries were equally unimpressive. I've had better tasting spicy chickens and chicken nuggets at mcd's, bk's, and other fast food places that done "specialize" in chicken. Overall the food was edible but I wouldn't eat here again if there are other options to choose from. GREAT service though!

In the morning a 3 minute turnaround time, absolutely immaculate service, incredibly clean environment very friendly staff, to the letter exactly what I would expect from Chick-fil-A. With the added touch of nice flowers on each dining surface.

This was my first visited this location. The parking lot was pretty tight, but which is fine. They opened dine in now. We went to the Saturday lunch time. It was so crowded inside, but line ( cashier ) was so smoothly. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich. It was great flavor and smells amazing. Also the bands was so delicious too. The table and chairs were cleaned. A lady kept cleaning up the tables, chairs and trash box areas. It was great atmosphere. The children's play room was still temporary closed.

I love chick fil a. The food rarely disappoints and the service is almost always perfect. However, yesterday I was in the drive though, and the service was still great. But I looked in the window to grab my food and there was a young female coworker with long hair in a clip. She was flipping her hair around and it kept hitting over her shoulder and other people. Everyone else had their hair pulled back and out of the way. I do have concerns that some of her hair could end up in food. It is my suggestion that everyone just have their hair completely pulled back or even in a braid. Her hair was loose in the clip and that is not what I want to see flying around in a kitchen.

Brayden was the GOAT. Most people think im crazy when I say ive never had Chick-fil-A. All of brothers recommendations were fire and his energy was very pleasant. Im positive ill try this place out again soon!

Most recent carry out order wasn't great. Usually we dine in here. But we went ahead and ordered ahead and picked up and brought home. The presentation of the food was lacking. My husband's sandwich was basically see-through. My salad looked like I picked it up from Pizza Hut. Nothing against Pizza Hut but I just expect more from Panera. Their presentation is usually spot on.

Extremely understaffed, very poor dine-in experience. There was no one at the register, so we ordered at the kiosk. Waited 40 minutes for two sandwiches and our drinks. Their policy is no drink cups until your order is up, so we sat at an empty table without even water for 40 minutes. Food tasted great by the time we got it. ("Hunger is the best sauce.") Staff was friendly but stressed: there are just too few of them. Avoid dine-in unless you have an hour to kill and are well hydrated before hand.

Staff is always great. Food is pretty good and cooked fresh (as fresh as you can get with fast food). My only complaint is the dining area can sometimes be messy/dirty and the bathrooms are just awful. I do not dine in for this reason and rather eat in the car or drive home.

Their chicken bacon ranch is amazing. Also love their broccoli cheddar soup. Their new coffees are amazing too

Excellent food and a very clean dining area. The staff was very friendly. Overall a great visit.

This was the first time i have ever step foot in a Panera Bread restaurant. Food was good. I ordered broccoli and cheese soup and bread. Also I ordered the caramel latte. The soup was full of broccoli and thick texture. So delicious. The caramel latte was a great flavor. I used the drive through. So smooth.

Went here early on a Saturday while in Manhattan visiting my daughter. Very friendly staff including a trainee who was obviously nervous in her new job but was making every effort to give good service. Restaurant and restrooms were very clean. Not easy to see or find but definitely worth a stop for breakfast on the weekend.

Probably the worst McDonald's I have ever seen. From the lowest-ranking employee to the manager, they are disrespectful, unprofessional, and rude. The person taking orders was particularly problematic; he pretended not to understand 'vanilla cone' despite my wife and I repeating it multiple times in different ways. It was such a disappointing experience. Even the manager or supervisor at this location was disrespectful and unprofessional. I am attaching a photo of one of the problematic employees who even shut the window in my face and he wasn’t opening the window until after a while I called for the supervisor, unfortunately after seeing the supervisor I realized why the rest of the employees were so psychotic. I definitely don’t recommend this place to anyone."

I went through the drive-thru this evening and ordered a ranch chicken wrap with a cup of ranch — and I paid the extra $0.20 for it, no problem at all. Ordering and paying went smoothly. The issue started at the pickup window, where Kat (or Cat) was working. After being handed my food, I asked if the ranch cup was in the bag. She said yes. I checked before driving off — no ranch cup. I let her know, and she walked off briefly, came back, and looked like she wanted to check the bag herself. I told her again it wasn’t in there and even took everything out and held the bag upside down so she could see for herself. Instead of simply fixing the issue, she told me, “You don’t have to shake the bag at me like that.” Excuse me? I wasn’t “shaking” anything — I was showing her the bag was empty, because I paid for that ranch and it wasn’t there. Why would I lie over a $0.20 cup of ranch? We ended up going back and forth about it, and honestly, it’s ridiculous. From what I’ve read in other reviews, it seems professionalism is not a strong point at this location — and this interaction just confirmed it for me. Arguing with a customer over a missing ranch cup, especially when it could’ve been handled in two seconds with basic courtesy, is wild. Let me just say this: if you come at me sideways, I’m going to meet that energy. I won’t tolerate being disrespected — especially not over something I paid for. Message to staff: Watch how you talk to people. The next person might not respond the same way as me.

Boo Boo McDonald’s I am absolutely livid about my recent trip to McDonald’s, and I can’t believe how far this place has fallen! I was craving some classic fries and nuggets, but what I got was an infuriating letdown that ruined my entire day. First off, the fries were ice-cold, limp, and tasted like they’d been sitting under a heat lamp for hours. I mean, come on, McDonald’s, you’re supposed to be the gold standard for fries! How do you mess that up so badly? They were so stale and soggy I could barely choke them down. It’s like you don’t even care about your customers anymore! And don’t get me started on the nuggets. I ordered a 4-piece chicken nugget box, and when I opened it, there were only THREE nuggets inside! Are you kidding me? I paid for four, and you shorted me like it’s no big deal. This isn’t just sloppy—it’s borderline theft! I didn’t drive through your sorry excuse for a fast-food joint to get ripped off and served subpar food. The fact that no one seems to check the orders or care about quality is just pathetic. I’m beyond disappointed, and I’m seriously considering never coming back to this location. Get your act together, McDonald’s, because this was an absolute disgrace!

Several times I've gone through drive thru early morning, and many times have received good service and good food.....but... There has been several times, this morning being one where I ordered a sausage biscuit and upon driving off and getting to work to find that the biscuit is stale and most likely left over from the previous morning. I'm sorry but as early as I come in there is no excuse for not having fresh made food. Holding over breakfast sandwiches from the day before is disgusting, serving them to customers is just nasty. It's not just a little dried out, the bottom edge of the biscuit is crunchy hard. I know what a fresh one tastes like and there's no way that food was made this morning, deplorable.

I go here all the time. But this time they gave me the wrong food. Had to go back and then wait for 10 minutes for them to give me two snack wraps. Time is precious and they don't care

Play place absolutely disgusting. Kids hands and feet black by the time their done and now they smell like someone else's urine...pretty sure no one cleans this play place and if they do send ppl to clean it they should be fired because their not doing their job!!! Probably worse than the door handle to a man's bathroom at a truck stop!!!

The service here was absolutely disgusting. The girl taking the order in the drive through was extremely rude and condescending about my order. I asked specifically for my cheeseburger plain (allergies) confirmed it with her and then when I got home everything was still on my cheeseburger.

I have gone three days in a row first day i understood i got there five minutes after 11 so I couldn’t get breakfast but RHE past two days 10 minutes before breakfast is over, they have been telling me they are completely out of breakfast items when I know it’s not true. Only reason I get there at the time i do is cause im rushing out of class to make it there on time. The service is just horrible.

Painfully slow service. I was in the drive thru and estimated it took 10+ minutes between cars (I actually timed it at 13).I ended up leaving after waiting 40 minutes when I came to the realization that after I order I would have to wait another 40 minutes to get my food. My last visit I went inside and it took 20+ minutes. This is fast food quality food with the wait time of a sit down restaurant.

I waited 20 mins for my order, while watching the three people behind receive theirs. Pictured is a chili cheese burrito, lacking most everything but tortilla! Terrible

This place is not worth any time or money, the reviews the last 6+ months have consistently been negative on the service and the quality of the food. The doors were locked even though they were still open. Somebody needs to inform the staff at this restaurant how to effectively cook food. The food I received was cold and hard to the point of it being too gross even for Taco Bell. Tl;dr If you want to wait 30+ minutes in line for cold food, this is your place!

Waited for 20 minutes before anyone acknowledged me. Could not take the order correctly. Person behind me asked to speak with the manager and the young lady manager stared cussing the customer out before he even got out what he was trying to say. The most unprofessional thing I have seen in a long time. Who ever owns this particular location needs to spend some time in it. 1 star is too high for this location.

I was really hoping that the complete demolition of the old building would also bring better staff, but nope. I went here today after placing an online order to pick up in the drive thru. There were two cars in front of me, both of which only had one bag worth of food, so it's not like they ordered much. First off, the speaker system in the drive thru is atrocious. For being a new building, they could have also upgraded the speaker/intercom system. That aside, I ended up waiting 10+ minutes for the 2 cars in front of me to go through. I am pretty sure my food was ready the entire time because once I got to the window, I was out of there within 20 seconds. I get home (less than a 5 minute drive) and the food is lukewarm at best and the cheese for my chips was cold. And instead of napkins in the bag, I got paper towels?!? Not sure if they ran out of napkins or what but that was... interesting to see. TL:DR: If you want Taco Bell, go to the one on the east side.

I will not come back here again. Like many others, I was excited after the rebuild and have given this place multiple chances. I've been disappointed every time. Service is always slow, even at slow times. This morning I waited in the drive through at the mic for ~5 minutes with no communication at all. Got frustrated and pulled forward only to have the employee look at me surprised, pull off the headset with the excuse of " OH, the battery must be dead." But made no effort to have anyone communicate that to me. I don't care if it's a training issue or a management issue, but at this point, it doesn't matter anyway.

Manhattan's best kept secret. Loved it and looking forward to going back! I felt like I went through a time portal and at a quality cafe from 25-30 years ago. The food was delicious too! My only complaint is that the daily special (caramel apple pancakes) did not have enough caramel. But they were still good!

Simple dining done right. The breakfast sample special was lots of food with a perfect fluffy pancake Hamburger was fresh and tasty. Hard working staff with a small but basic menu

Great food, service, and atmosphere! Small town familiarity a city..... great prices. Will go back!

Good place for a sit down meal with an old school diner feel. Generous enough portions for a cowboy. Larger than usual drink cups to avoid constant refills. Either get an omelette combo or cheeseburger and fries... you'll thank me later!

Wife and I stopped in for a quick lunch, I had the bacon cheeseburger, she had the cheeseburger. The food was fresh and very good. The server was very nice and paid close attention to making sure we knew the specials and were taken care of.

One of the best burgers I've ever had in the Manhattan area.

Awsome breakfast, them pancakes are big.

First time at this Taco John's for me, first Taco John's ever for my wife and it didn't disappoint. We did the $1.39 crunchy taco Tuesday that were well filled and very good. Bought some bean burritos that were good as well. We'll be back. Customer service here is awsome. Very clean restaurant very well maintained. Hope they keep that Taco Tuesday going a long time.

Fast Mexican, really it's much like Taco Bell, except you can sit and have a meal inside, and the drive through is faster here. It would be really a benefit if they went back to their salsa bar, huge amounts of plastic package waste from the sauces and ketchup. The specials change and they have some new twists to things on the menu. The regular taco has more filling than the comparable taco at the bell. The only thing is getting used to the potato rounds being in most dishes. I would say that the breakfast is really good as well, they just don't open early enough to do me any good except on the weekend. Update: New menu item the Spicy Steak and Potato Griller is very tasty, is not spicy at all. Just order a couple of them, it's not a burrito, more like a little square, about half of a chimichanga. See new pic.

Fantastic drive thru service, food was good and the new lemonade drinks are 🔥

Worse food ever, I got a taco salad, and all I had was about half a cup of meat, such a disappointment. The whole thing was all lettuce. Get your money's worth. Go to Taco Bell.

Love taco John's.. Ate there almost daily when working in Minnesota last year.. Happy to see one in Kansas love the salsa bar... wish they all had pico on bar... some do some dont... I understand it's a food cost issue have many years of F&B.. Great clean store.. good job.

Its quite in there but very clean. Good management and good food

The person at the register looked like he hated his life and acted like it as well. It was an inconvenience to do his job of pushing buttons and taking orders. WHILE you can hate your life… you at least try and cover it up like every other retail employee He acted like it was the end of the world when I ordered a cold brew. We paid 26$ for 6 tacos and they all came like the picture. I didn’t get my cold brew either. I waited assuming they would be busy. It wasn’t until we were ready to leave my husband went up and asked for it AGAIN. Things happen, but it hindered the experience. We agreed we would never go back and we stuck with it.

Coworkers and I occasionally order door dash Dunkin’ here in MHK. This morning was quite disappointing. We have had some previous order mishaps before but they seemed minor, today was different. I ordered an iced mocha latte and asked for less ice just because I like lighter ice. When receiving my drink I was shocked to find my M size drink only 3/4 of the way full. Very disappointed!! Did I receive less drink because I asked for less ice? For $6 that’s not right.

Reading and following a customers order is extremely difficult these days…. If you didn’t have what I ordered, please just tell me at the window. Don’t make me wait forever in the drive thru and then send me to work with something I can’t eat.

I understand making mistakes on orders it happens. But when I order avacodo toast with bacon on a day with no one else at the drive through I expect bacon or atleast avacodo on my toast. I get home and I have paid five dollars for a slice of toast with nothing on it and ate it because it's a fifteen minute drive back. Thanks for nothing and terrible service. Will not be returning.

The coffee and begal were great but the guy at the window tossed the bag to me and was quick to shove the drink in my hand. I get there was a long line but rude service is not going to make me come back

Of course! Here’s a sample review for Dunkin’ Donuts: ⸻ Dunkin’ Donuts Review Dunkin’ Donuts has long been a staple for coffee and donut lovers, and for good reason. With a wide selection of donuts, from classic glazed to seasonal favorites, there’s something to satisfy every sweet tooth. The coffee is smooth, consistent, and reliable — perfect for those early mornings or afternoon pick-me-ups. The service can vary depending on location, but most stores maintain a quick and efficient pace, especially during the morning rush. I appreciate the option to order ahead via the app, which often makes the experience seamless. While the prices have crept up over the years, the value is still decent, especially with deals and rewards through the Dunkin’ app. Dunkin’ also offers a solid lineup of breakfast sandwiches, bagels, and snacks, making it a versatile spot for a quick meal or coffee break. Overall, Dunkin’ Donuts remains a reliable go-to for affordable coffee and tasty treats. If you’re looking for fancy, artisanal pastries, this might not be your spot, but for classic comfort, it delivers. Rating: rizz/rizz

I come here everyday for a vanilla cream cold brew coffee and I get there are some who are new and some who have been there. This is time I ordered a large coffee and it was just REGULAR COFFEE I pay too much to get whatever they made for the car at the window. I will not be back they need more training on the drinks

Great location and easy to get to you. The drive-through is very busy so I decided to go inside. It was very comfortable and options. I did up getting a pumpkin cold brew and a hot pumpkin coffee. I walked away with her and a great experience. The staff was very nice and very quick. I recommend getting there before 9 AM for the best selection of donuts.

Ill be honest. Not a huge Starbucks fan. Just not a fan of the brewing method. Outside of this, the staff here is super friendly, was helpful with me ordering something I greatly enjoyed and were kind the entire time I was in the café. I stayed for a bit juggling bills a little and they check in with me a few times, but weren't pushy in the slightest. Ill definitely revisit this location, specifically because of the great customer service of the staff.

I stopped for 2 Grande caramel brrulee lattes just 10 min ago. The service was great and the staff in the drive through were very friendly.. my complaint is that one of my 2 identical drinks was 2/3 the way full.. I always tip.. so I spent 15.64 on coffee.. that's bad enough.. but.. come on starbucks.. do better!!....(my response to owner comment)....I shouldn't have to go in the store or back through the drive through to have a "partner" remake my drink. My drinkbwas MADE fine.. the cup was barely half full!!! That.. is .. the...point!!!

The three that closed 2/17/25 at night rude. Although different locations close at various times and the streets cut off customers can be unaware of business hours. No signs posted. Even though they saw me turned their backs to me and the manager slammed down the metal bar that keeps the drive through window locked. Then turn away again rather than simply motioning they were closed. Its extremely sad that people do not realize the customers are the reasons they are employed and have income. Or rather you never know who you are serving that may also be a business owner and remember your behavior should you need employment. I would not keep workers that engage like this and plan to follow up with this event.

I had ordered a Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew thru the Drive-thru so as far as the food and atmosphere was not applicable but the service was great.

Management should have a discussion with Ashley about her condescending attitude that has been something she has done repeatedly. She also feels the need to try to lecture customers about when they should come pick up their order and she is extremely rude if she feels you have shown up too early. Her attitude is completely ridiculous and uncalled for. There is a non-condescending way to speak to people, she obviously hasn’t mastered it. If Starbucks has a rule for when you can pick up your order it should be posted and not done by a rude employee.

The flavors in the pasta dish were perfectly balanced and rich.

I come here often and the people working here are awesome. They remember me and my order and it just kinda makes my day. I very much like this location. I'd say every starbucks is a bit hard to get in and out of, but this one is a little easier than aggie. And the baristas are just, they're good. They aren't out of things often. Rarely. And they make their drinks right and consistent. The line moves fast. I'm used to planning on a 30 min wait, but I've never had to plan that far ahead with them. I appreciate that. 10 mins or less in a busy drive through? The peeps they got back there are doing the things.

Granted they were busy enough to cause a traffic jam, both order of fries were missing and my unsweet tea was insanely watered down.

Westloop location is trash. Drive the extra 10min & go to the Anderson location. I order carry out in the app so I don’t have to wait, yet out of the 10 or so times I’ve gone here I’ve waited every single time but 1, even though I hit “I’m Here” before I even get to Target. Today I got onions on 1 out of the 3 burgers I ordered, wanted light mustard but I guess that means zero mustard. Off to the kitchen to remake my food.

I get off work at 12:30 pm. My son likes Mcdonalds so I stop in 3 to 4 times a week. 3 out of 4 times they park me in a stall. Today I parked for 10 pc nugget and fries. I sat for 15 minutes. A lady came out and asked me what I ordered because they lost it. So waited 5 more minutes. Got home to half tray of fries and carbonated water for dr. Pepper. Mcdonalds how about push button stalls like sonic since you park everyone anyway.

Besides not bringing out half of our meal, the restaurant was decently clean and service was quick. As always food was barely warm.

I have not been to a McDonald's in over a year and honestly will never go back to this location if I do decide to go again. The manager yelled and cussed at employees in front of my family at the drive-thru window because no one was at the first window to take our payment. She rolled her eyes at my husband when he tried explaining why he hadn't paid yet, gave us so much attitude. The man who "should" have taken our payment came to the window(after being yelled and cussed at) and told us next time just pay at the first window, huffed at us, then forced the window shut. Then, not being dramatic, demanded us to pull forward to wait for our food while they helped two more customers. We waited half expecting her to come out and apologize or something, instead someone we hadn't even dealt with brought us our food. Not the biggest deal, but after the dehumanizing and humiliating behavior towards the others working I was insanely disappointed.

Trash service, trash food. They forgot to give me a 20 peice I ordered when I told the guy at the window he said to park and order it on parking space 1. Sorry but Kansas McDonald's employees are lazy!

This place is ridiculous. Ordered a single mcflurry on the mobile app. Said it would be ready in 2 to 5 minutes. 27 minutes later they have the audacity to come to the counter and ask what I'm waiting for. There needs to be something done about this terrible staff. Absolutely rude and inconsiderate. Where is management?!

Let me tell you this food has FLAVOR! I’ve been to multiple Mexican restaurants within Manhattan but the food here blew me away! The portions also make it well worth your money! The service from the staff was amazing and the atmosphere was wonderful!

Everything was AMAZING, being from Texas you don't find a lot of good mexican food that compares to actaul hispanic food. And this place just hit every spot. Great service as well. Most definitely will be coming back!!

I used to live around the corner from Antijitos Mexicanos El Sol and I'm so sad I had to move. I have been trying birria at other places and have not found anywhere else with birria tacos this good! It's so amazing, I crave it and get it every time now that I don't live close enough to eat here regularly. BUT I also love their sopes, fish tacos, papas locos & civiche. Everything here is always amazing honestly. The service is also always wonderful! Very nice and attentative.

Food here is delicious! Big servings for a really good price. Staffs were great and good atmosphere 👌 . 2nd time going here and will definitely come back again

Amazing food and service! The beef birria is out of this world. They were very accommodating about my celiacs disease/gluten allergy as well. We will definitely be back! The tacos were so incredible I had to order some extras to take home.

Really good food and selection! They have some unique ideas and deals to make to think twice as to what to order as it's all really good. It makes me want to return to keep trying new things 😁

My favorite place to eat Mexican food at!!! The chilaquiles were everything I was looking for! Great atmosphere great vibes and even better service. They also have elotes and other snacks I’m obsessed with.
