This is our go to spot. The staff is friendly and we love the food. Luckily I work at the T-Mobile within walking distance so when I need some good food, I'm set.

My go-to breakfast spot n FWB! When I'm really craving some good home cooked breakfast, I always come here. Their menu is basic: pancakes, French toast, biscuits and gravy, eggs, sandwiches, etc, but portions are hearty and it really tastes like Momma's breakfast! Unfortunately, it's usually pretty packed but staff is always friendly and will have you seated and served ASAP.

Being a new local, I was excited to see the reviews for this place and bring some out of town friends to a delicious going away breakfast. We walked in and the place was pretty crowded. We looked to see if we were trying to sit ourselves or some seats us. You have to walk a more towards the counter to see the sign that says "seat yourselves." We found a spot and someone proceeded to take our drink order then returned for our food order. The coffee was okay, nothing to rave about. After this, it kind of went downhill and I was upset because I really wanted a good breakfast place close to us. Our server never really came back to check on us to see if we wanted more coffee. Not very good for us coffee lovers. I kept hearing the server go to other tables repeatedly telling them that their hashbrowns would be out in a little bit. It appeared the table pretty much ate everything else. I thought to myself, "great". Sure enough, the kitchen forgot my friends dish or "thought they made it." They also forgot to make cheese grits for my boyfriend. After waiting to see when they returned with food if they had my eggs, she looked clueless and looked at the ticket and couldn't find it. The food was okay, my boyfriend says there is no doubt the sausage gravy is out of a can. Our server was nowhere to find after getting the food. From a former server for 10 years, service can make or break a customer's experience. The food may have been decent and I would have given this place a second chance but after seeing it wasn't just our table with bad food service and things being forgotten, I highly doubt I'll return.

Food was good. I had the basic breakfast with pancakes, hashbrowns, bacon, and eggs. It was all cooked as I asked. Nothing fancy but it was all very delicious. The restaurant was full, and therefore a little cramped. I was by myself so I just sat at the one available seat at the bar. I didn't have to wait though, so that was a plus. I never had to wait for my waitress. She was nice and timely. The other waitresses would check on me as well as they passed by, just in case. If you want a simple breakfast place, with simple food done well, this is a great place to go.
(4)Cindy S.
Best breakfast cafe I've eaten in a long time. If u crave a great homemade breakfast without hitting a cookie cutter waffle house, etc. you can't go wrong. First time here. Greeted with a smile. Very friendly wait staff. Food was quick & delish!! Nothing fancy. Just straight up great breakfast food. Will def be back!
(5)Vilma S.
Great small mom & pop eater. Came in for lunch and the place was packed but we were lucky to get a table by the front door. A great mix of customers from elderly, couples, families and military. Server was very friendly and efficient. Ordered the 1/2 chicken salad sandwich with a cup of potato leek soup and both were delicious. My daughter-in-law ordered the tuna salad sandwich with sweet potato fries and a cup of the hamburger soup. Yummy, Yummy!! My daughter-in-law raves about the breakfast specials so will be coming back soon to try.
(4)Carla D.
Honey, sweetie....put a biscuit in my mouth, mmm mmm good. Stopped for breakfast on the way out. I am so glad we did, we have to make a slight detour off the route but it was so worth it and easily got back on track. I had scrambled eggs, bacon, home fries and a biscuit. From the looks of the place I knew i needed to order something with a biscuit because granny was in the back making them. She sure 'nuff was. The staff was all very friendly and laid on the "honey, sweetie, doll" pet names thick. Honey, you want bacon? Okay doll, your order will be right out. This place is legit, and delicious. I hope it never changes and always stays in business.
(5)Savanna H.
We have been back since my last review. We still give it this rating. As my boyfriend and I came in with our friends. Not one plate was cleared from our table the entire time we sat and chatted. I'm not sure of my servers name this time. It was a young lady with really blonde hair. Once again the food was really good and fast. We ate there on Tuesday. We always enjoy the food its the service this place lacks.
(2)Odalis R.
We all enjoyed our breakfast. If you're looking for the typical american breakfast this is the place to go. We were a little apprehensive at first because it took a while to get our drinks. But then it turned around and they were prompt with food service and coffee refills. We all had some variety of eggs, bacon and hashbrowns/home fries and they were all cooked perfectly. The French toast was delicious.
(4)Zen J.
I enjoyed the breakfast just before we headed out on the road. Best turkey sausage with potatoes and eggs. They're pretty busy on a Sunday so be prepared to wait. But it's worth it.
(4)lorenzo m.
Rarely do I award five stars however neighborhood cafe earned the rating. We arrived Saturday morning requesting a table of fifteen, within minutes we were sat and attended to expeditiously. The food was spot on and the service was speedy and friendly.
(5)Lori C.
I have been here a few times with the family. Its a nice local place for breakfast. I would recommend to anyone looking for a weekend breakfast. The only issue I have is that there isnt a childs menu. I wish they would add one. It would make it so much easier with the kids.
(4)Jack M.
This is breakfast the way it was meant to be. Giant pancakes, full coffee cups, massive omelettes, and homemade biscuits... what else do you need in life? Every town needs a go to breakfast spot, and this is the one. Don't be deceived because its tucked away in the corner of a strip mall... like they always say, don't judge a book by its cover. I love the atmosphere here...the Neighborhood Cafe may look a little worn down, but it kinda feels like I'm eating at my grandmas (and thats a good thing). How do you tell this place serves up great breakfast... because its usually packed on weekend mornings. Crowded is good! It means they're doing something right... You may have to hang out in the front for a bit... Its worth it, trust me. If there's an open table, go ahead and seat yourself. The wait staff is always on top of their game, and should bring you menus shortly... but its always good to initiate some eye contact just in case (Hey, they're working hard!). But enough about the lines and the decor... lets get to the food. Honestly, this may be one of my favorite breakfast places of all time. Nothing outlandish or exotic.... and certainly no booze (Sorry, no Sunday Sunday here)... But their take on good ole American breakfast is simply the best. For all you coffee snobs out there... and I know you're out there... they serve Leroy Hill Coffee. It's a good cup, and roasted right down the road in Mobile. I haven't ventured through the entire menu yet... mainly because I don't want to get anything else... but from what I've tried... you pretty much can't go wrong. The Loaded Omelette.... enough said... get it. It takes up half a plate, and the hashbowns are inside... yes... inside. Cooked to perfection, with fluffy eggs, and all the fillings... I would have no problem eating this for breakfast regularly. Half your plate is taken up by your omelette, but don't forget you have to order hash browns, home fries or grits... I'm a home fries guy Then you get a choice for your bread... toast, english muffin, or a biscuit...but there's really only one option here...If you get anything other than a biscuit, you're committing a crime... Ask for it grilled... you'll thank me later. Every week I look forward to the neighborhood cafe. Theres a warm, homely feel to it. I love the fact that they don't have WiFi or TV.... it makes you focus on the people you're with. The wait staff really cares, and they want you to have a wonderful breakfast. I was bummed to find out our favorite waitress was moving on, she made breakfast that much more enjoyable, but it certainly won't keep me from my Loaded Omelette. There is no argument or competition here. The Neighborhood Cafe is the best breakfast in town
(5)Judith G.
This place was so good... Busy busy for breakfast. I had the plain biscuit and gravy with the biscuit grilled per another Yelper, perfect. Yummy breakfast.
(5)Harshad P.
Hidden gem. Loved the pancakes and all white veggi omelette! Excellent service and very nice ambience :)
(5)Anuj A.
After hearing a lot about this place, I bookmarked it on Yelp as a place I wanted to visit during my vacation in Destin. The best of the words do not give justice to how amazingly beautiful this place is! I have never had a breakfast more satisfying than the one I had at Neighborhood Cafe. First of all their service is great! Two very friendly ladies were taking good care of us, making sure we were doing fine with the food and making sure our cups were full of coffee. I ordered the Loaded Omelette with some bacon on the side, and it was exactly what I wanted an omelette to be. The veggies and sausage were sautéed very nicely, tucked in and wrapped inside the beautifully cooked eggs! The omelette was big enough to fill a stomach like mine so I'm sure 99% of the people wont need anything on the side. Whenever I'm road-tripping to Florida again, Im going to make sure I take a detour to visit this place! ABSOLUTELY NO IMPERFECTIONS! A perfect shiny FIVE.
(5)Benjamin G.
Spot-on. 5/5. Location: 5/5.Quaint, clean, not as chaotic as competing restaurants. Staff: 5/5. Friendly, helpful. Regardless that we had one person taking care of our table, other staff members wouldn't hesitate just to simply say hello and check on the table. Food: 5/5. I had the "garbage omelete" and it was the exact OPPOSITE of the title. Fluffy, filled with stuffing, and cooked well. Also tried their strawberry stuffed french toast, and that was awesome as well. Pricing: 5/5. very good. a few dollars less than going to IHOP/Denny's for 2 people. Only complaint is no military discount available. Other than that, I'll be back for sure!
(5)Jae S.
Loved my breakfast. Pancakes were awesome!! Good service also. My husband loved his garbage omelet! We will be back!
(4)Seepferdchen J.
This spot came highly recommended. The service and price were excellent, but the food was average. I had the half egg salad sandwich and the potato soup. The soup was the tastiest part - could have made the sandwich at home. Probably won't return.
(3)Christina Y.
Homey place in a strip mall. Best omelettes ever! The grilled biscuit is a must and the omelet is the BEST! I typically refrain from getting omelette, but I am so glad I did here. I was skeptical, I mean, how good could an omelette be? We got the tex-mex omelette because I was sharing with someone who doesn't eat sausage. It was, very very good. I plan to come back and try the loaded omelette and plan not to share!
(5)Autumn W.
Great place for a home cooked meal! As soon as you walk in you feel like you're in a small town. The owner is always there working and all the staff is very sweet! We've only been for breakfast but it's always great
(4)M B.
We found our new favorite breakfast spot! My hubby got the garbage omelet. It had ham, sausage, onion, tomato, green peppers and cheese. OMG! Best omelet either of us have ever had! I got the French toast with a side of country ham! So good! No complaints! Cute little place. The service was fast and friendly. We will definitely be back!
(5)Jeff H.
I've been around this area for going on 3 years and discovered this place within the last year or so and now frequent Neighborhood Cafe at least once every week or so. The servers are friendly and remember who you are--great customer experience. The whole place gives off a very family owned vibe which is pretty refreshing. To the food! Omelette fan here, get them almost every time I go in. From the "garbage" omelette, which is anything but, to just a regular sausage type omelette..you won't be disappointed! The potatoes are cooked to near perfection, with a good crunch on the outside and soft on the inside...not just mush in your mouth. Overall, nice place to eat at with great food and great people.
(5)Alyssa Y.
Alright food. I was unimpressed with their pancakes. For the price, it's an okay deal. But a lot of their foods are lacking in taste. I wish they had more options in waffles, pancakes, oatmeal, and fruit. For a vegetarian, it's difficult to eat here.
(3)Carter L.
One of our favorite places. Great selection, exceptional service, & the prices are right on
(5)Jennifer C.
Went on a Saturday at around 1100 - I asked for their breakfast menu while my friend asked for their lunch one. Had the pancakes - they were great. My friend had their taco salad. Large portions for the price in a friendly atmosphere. Great place!
(4)L B.
Wonderful food - seat yourself - decent coffee-the monte crisco b'fast sandwich was excellent. Strawberry stuffed French toast also very good - only criticism - it is Florida - use fresh strawberries ! The mushy frozen ones are so sad ....
(4)Denise H.
What a nice local find in a tourist town. Simple delicious food and friendly staff. On the way out I saw the sign for the lunch specials and already planning on coming back.
(5)Duy H.
Hard to find this place because the sign is too small. Nice decor inside, friendly service. I ordered "Good Morning Special" and it was an exceptionally savory delicious meal. The chocolate chip pancakes were the best I ever had. Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you make a stop for breakfast.
(5)Ravi B.
Came here almost 2 months ago while on vacation and found this on yelp. We tried a variety of items. Great service, Great food. Great coffee. Great eggs. Everything tasted great. It wasn't anything unique, but if you're looking for quality breakfast/brunch food, I would try this.
(4)Joe S.
I love this place! The staff is awesome. The food always right on point. B&G is grey with tons of sausage. The croissant breakfast sandwich is great. I wouldn't change a thing in this gem. Ok I would change one thing, open 10 more of these in the area!
(5)Robin M.
We sought this place out because of Yelp reviews. We all enjoyed our meals, family of four- ages 9-42. The 9 year old picky eater was enthusiastically inhaling everything on his considerably sized order. Pancakes are large, hash browns were perfectly done. A pleasant meal!
(5)Tanya E.
It's the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was creamy and flavored perfectly. The cheesy grits had onion on top, which I thought was unusual and was not mentioned on the menu. Overall great breakfast place.
(4)Na Hyun K.
My mom and I went to Destin for vacation and we were craving breakfast food. I pulled out Yelp and this place had the best ratings and now I know why! If you're looking for a clean restaurant to eat with homemade, delicious food, this is the place. Forget the chain restaurants!!
(5)Jeff M.
First time here. Food was excellent! Service was super and very friendly, from moment we walked in to waitress to guy at the register. The place is clean. Easy to find. Yelp shows it in the wrong place. It's just across the street from Home Depot in the TJ Maxx shopping center.
(5)Vickie S.
After reading all the raving Yelp reviews, my husband and I came here for breakfast on our recent vacation. We got a late start that day, so I was starving!! I ordered the Strawberry Stuffed French Toast and coffee. Both were very good. I can't remember what my husband ordered, but he liked it, too. It was super crowded since we were there on July 4th weekend, but it didn't take long to get a table, and the service was fast and friendly. We are originally from Ohio, and the decor reminded me of a place in rural Ohio, or maybe somewhere in Amish country. We love "mom and pop" places, and it made us feel right at home!
(4)Jessica S.
Came here when visiting the area. Food was decent - cozy little breakfast joint!
(4)H G.
2 stars ONLY because of the awful Belgium Waffle. I did not even eat it beyond a couple of bites. It was tough and chewy. I was surprised because the eggs and bacon (really, can't ruin that) were decent and it was fairly busy. The staff however was excellent. I sat up at the breakfast bar since I was solo and they all talked to me as well as the other regulars who were friendly.
(2)Megan W.
This was a great laid back welcoming atomosphere! The food was delicious!!!! The customer service was on point.
(5)Mai J.
Disgusting! ( no offense ) but everything taste and looks like it came from a frozen box
(1)Lanae S.
Any personality that the food MAY lack they make up for in customer service. We were instantly greeted and drink orders taken. The food was OK, but again I think the atmosphere made it better. Will try the French Toast next. We had grits, eggs, sausage, bacon, biscuit, and pancakes.
(4)Shannon R.
Pigs in a blanket were amazing, the secret pancake recipe was delicious! I made my own omelet and had a side of grits very yummy!
(4)Nikki B.
I am updating my review because the staff showed real concern regarding my situation at their place of business. It really showed they care about their customers. Perhaps it was a fluke that I got food poisoning here.
(3)Boomer J.
1hr wait, everything was out of a box or can. Flavorless bland breakfast. Save yourself some time and go to Golden Corral across the street.
(1)Donald P.
Two thumbs up...WAY up! We're vacationing in Fort Walton Beach this week, and saw the great reviews on Yelp. What a wonderful experience! Food quality, service and atmosphere all outstanding. A genuine local diner. Our server "Judy" was so friendly and personable, and really made us feel welcome. She chatted with us about where we were visting from (Chicago) and about the local beaches. She never let our coffee mugs get below half full. The waitstaff seemed to genuinely enjoy working here. Every one of the dishes we ordered were SO tasty. The "Eggs Benedict" were as good as I've had, hashed browns cooked extra crispy, just as ordered.
(5)Matthew P.
If you want to eat a reasonably priced breakfast and avoid the normal pitfalls (Denny's, Waffle House, IHOP) this is your place. It is hard to screw up breakfast and this place gets it right. I had the loaded omelet with hash browns and toast for $9.50. The service was great and the food was as expected, good. There were more than 20 people eating 30 minutes after they opened so that is a good sign.
(4)Veronica H.
Most amazing breakfast ever! The strawberry stuffed French toast was so good. Biscuits & gravy was perfect. Wait to get seated can be a little long but it is well worth it.
(5)Jamie G.
This is a nice friendly restaurant with fabulous food. The breakfast is fresh and served quickly. They have specials that sound delicious. It is usually packed on Sunday mornings so you might want to try it on a different day.
(5)Megan C.
A GREAT little dive. French toast and waffles were Awesome! We ate breakfast there two days in a row. So Good.
(5)Carol H.
Best mom and pop place I've found so far! The staff is extremely friendly and go out of their way to make sure you have a wonderful experience dining there. Would recommend to anyone looking for down home cooking. Will be going back frequently!!
(5)Tanya S.
I like this place a lot! Tired of going to big chain places like Ihop and Crackerbarrel. This is a nice change of pace. It's quiet and the food is excellent. The customer service is great too. The waitresses are very friendly and warm. The food is delicious and comes out quick. The hash browns were the best I've ever had. Will enjoy having this place as our weekend breakfast place.
(5)Kristofer N.
Fast delicious and a great serving crew. I think we were the only non locals, which usually means good eats. Morning sunrise was perfect.
(5)Sara K.
Went here for a early breakfast while traveling to Florida and found a pajama party going on! We had great service, an amazing inexpensive breakfast and the waitress even gave me a bandaid after i cut myself.
(4)Kelly D.
What a great place full of friendly people! We are on a cross country trip from Portland Oregon and have been relying on yelp reviews heavily for where we eat and stay. This place did not disappoint. We were excited for the neighborhood club breakfast sandwiches but arrived at noon and they had already switched to the lunch menu. After hearing our story, they went out of their way to make us the sandwiches anyway and they were delicious!! We even got some great advice and recommendations for our next stop in New Orleans. Finding places like this is what makes traveling on the road so fun and personable!
(5)Tran N.
I was on my mini vacation in Destin, and we were in the area pretty hungry from the long drive from Atlanta. Breakfast has always been my favorite meal of the day, so this place popped up on yelp and I figured we might as well give it a try. We all walked in and noticed it is a warming, local eatery. Their dinner options looked pretty decent also. The prices were really good, and I noticed my forever favorite breakfast dish was on the menu: Eggs Benedict. The only place so far I know that serves up wonderful eggs benedict is Highland Bakery in Atlanta. So I was hoping this place was good for that as well. It was not bad at all, but it wasn't too great. It did hit the spot for a long day at the beach though. The problem was that it was drained in Hollaindaise sauce, and the whole time I was trying to eat around it. I can't eat eggs benedict if it is overly sauced. The potatoes were pretty good though, I managed to really enjoy those. Service was excellent and sweet. I forgot who are waitress was, but she was the sweetest ever. A good place to stop by if you're ever in Destin and want breakfast.
(3)James C.
The food was great and the service was too. This is the type of place I love to eat breakfast. I loved there omelets and their French Toast was out of this world.
(5)Chelsea W.
Wonderful place! Reminded us of a little place back home. Friendly staff, excellent food! Try the French toast!
(5)Simon S.
Nice place. Coffee was pretty good and the waitresses were very prompt to keep my cup full. I give the service a 5 stars and the food 3 stars, so 4 stars overall. Reason for the 3 stars for the food was my bacon, while very crispy, it was too dry. In addition, my english muffin, while nicely toasted, was soaked in way too much butter. The eggs and grits were okay. Granted, I didn't try much of the food they have there, the stuff I did have was just basic. The coffee and service was good enough for me to go back and try more.
(4)Sheila L.
The omelet was delicious although my husband likes his onions and bell pepper cooked down (not crunchy). The grits weren't salted before cooking and the biscuit wasn't homemade. The blueberry pancake was fair.
(3)Angie M.
This place is pretty good and have a good menu. It has specials on the board outside that should also be inside somewhere. Good service, friendly people, and not too busy if you get there before 1000 on the weekends. The Neighborhood club it pretty good. My french toast was good even though it was cold :\ Would return.
(4)Michaelangelo M.
Delicious! I had their white chocolate chip w/strawberries! Yum yum yum
(4)Tina P.
Breakfast the way it should be!! Like your Grandma made it. Great eggs, hashbrowns, great Telmex omlet. Service with a smile- and they showed great teamwork. Highly recommend!
(5)Krystal E.
I picked this local venue for breakfast on an early Sunday morning as a to go order for my husband and I. I went in, ordered, ran an errand, then returned to pick it up. The venue's front door was a little unwelcoming, but the inside was very, very cozy--perhaps the ambiance from the 60s or 70s . When I went to pick my order up in approx 10-15 min, they were bagging it, & were placing extra condiments, napkins, and cutlery for me. I didn't check the bag for accuracy. When I returned to my hotel room, the order was exactly as I had placed it. Ham & Cheese Omelet w/Home Fries & a biscuit American Cheese Omelet w/grits & a biscuit 2 Pecan Pancakes All of it was delicious! The omelets & the fries were not greasy & the bread was not hard. Service was prompt & friendly. I wish I had eaten inside. There were many locals eating inside this particular morning, among the guests--their local EMS & Fire Department!
(5)Jeff K.
Hands down my favorite breakfast spot in FBW. If you live in the area, or are just passing through, then you owe it to yourself to give this place a try. Hot food, strong coffee, friendly atmosphere all welcome you when you arrive.
(5)Joy A.
Food is excellent but I can't give 5 stars to a place that charges $2.09 for a side of gravy. The amount of gravy on my country fried steak was slim and not sufficing for the meal. Staff is super friendly and also said the gravy is over priced too. Great place to eat as long as you don't want a little additional side of sauce or gravy because your only choice is a bowl of gravy for $2.09.
(4)David G.
This place is amazing, delicious, and my daughter loves it!!!!!! We recommend you try it.
(5)Scott H.
Another Gem I ran across courtesy of Yelp...always on the lookout for excellent Breakfast Places on my quest to find the world's greatest Corned Beef Hash...it's strange with Breakfast Places in that very few towns these days have good Mom and Pop type places, instead every town in The South is filled with the ubiquitous "Awful Waffles" and to a lesser extent "ISLOPS"....happy to report this is a good local place...Neighborhood Café is only open till 2, because it is mainly a Breakfast Spot with a little bit of Lunch Business...the minute I walked in I liked it..the place was bustling and the walls were decorated with all those old school tin advertising signs...they had three types of seating areas with booths,tables..and my personal favorite the all too rare counter..love sitting at counters because you get quick service and can really get a feel what is going on...it was clear from the get go this is a "regulars haven" as the waitresses knew everybody and were not hesitant at all to be sassy with them...heck my girl was sassy with me from the get go and it was the first time I had met her...I immediately in my mind was calling her "Flo" and half expected her to yell "Kiss My Grits" at me or someone else if we annoyed her in anyway...as one would expect sitting at the counter everything was lightning quick..taking of order..getting drink..getting food..getting check etc...it was all very good..was it the best Corned Beef Hash on my quest?...no..but it was far from the worst...Breakfast Food is rarely going to wow you, but it's amazing how often you are disappointed in it..I liked it so much that I came back a few days later to try their Chicken Fried Steak and it was equally good, but not out of this world...definitely a recommended spot to get Breakfast, but it's crowded on the weekends...still better to wait and spend locally here than going and getting scattered..covered..and smothered somewhere else
(4)Victoria C.
I found this place by accident, I use to live across the street. It quickly became a favorite. Not only is the food awesome, but the service is also excellent. Very friendly, when you walk in, you are greeted with a friendly attitude and if the owner is out and about, a handshake. I became a regular and every time I go in, they remember how I like my coffee and that I like a water no ice with it. I go at least once a week, more if I get the chance. I would highly recommend the neighborhood cafe to anyone who loves great service and great food. I love breakfast food, it's my favorite, and this is the best place to get breakfast in Fort Walton Beach.
(5)Bobbi T.
NOTHING here tastes frozen to me. Im glad I went with the majority of what the reviews stated on here. Do yourself a favor and give this place a shot and you be the judge. Customer service a plus and food a plus. For the best breakfast in Okaloosa county go to Neighobrhood Cafe
(5)Bryan S.
Unbelievably nice staff!! Home cooked all the way. We had an omelette, pancakes, home fries, etc., and, it was all great!!!
(5)Sarah F.
We went here for a late breakfast after reading the great reviews, and it did not disappoint. The place was still packed- all of our food was delicious and the service was friendly. One of Fort Walton's finest
(5)Chad B.
Great food...good service. Love the loaded omelette - very good value. This is my favorite breakfast place by far.
(5)Boo L.
Great food and service! This was my first visit, on a Saturday morning, and the place was packed. Very down home vibe here, my coffee cup was always topped off. Enjoyed my visit very much.
(5)Helen D.
Great food, excellent service. Coffee was really good super clean restaurant. We will eat here every time we visit Ft Walton
(5)Jamie B.
Excellent service...excellent coffee...excellent food! Great way to start a Sunday morning!
(5)Chan V.
Friendly little cafe in an old strip mall. The service was good. Food was decent. That's all I can say about that.
(3)Mark D.
3.5 stars Good food for a great price. I really liked how local the feel was. Service was fast and everyone was very friendly. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a fairly priced meal.
(3)Wade C.
Decent breakfast food. Very friendly wait staff. A little over priced. I really like the eggs and sausage but the home fries are not very good. Deep fried.
(3)Stacey C.
Small old cafe style with Great Breakfast!
(5)Allison C.
We needed some breakfast this am before we headed to an all day pre cana class and I came across this cafe on yelp. We asked the manager if we could be in and out in 40 minutes and he said they could! Well it was more than we could have asked for. Our breakfast was delivered within 10 minutes of ordering and it was delicious! I would recommend this place to anyone in the area, but stick around longer than we did! It's adorable!
(5)Prince M.
This was our first time here....and we look forward to coming back! Breakfast was excellent and the service was impeccable. Get the blueberry pancakes and try the Monte Cristo....delicious! Can't wait for our next trip to try something else....
(5)Brian M.
I've been here a few times now and only have great things to say about the place! Amazing breakfast and delicious lunch. Everything is so tasty and has that home cooked feel to it. The prices are excellent, the restaurant is clean and tidy, and the staff is so friendly. I seriously recommend this place to anyone wanting a home cooked kind of meal in a friendly stmosphere.
(5)A M.
Friendly and quick service, the omelets were good and full of their ingredients. Coffee was ok/typical diner style. Cute and comfy atmosphere. They serve breakfast until 11. Couldn't swap sides without paying as we are gluten intolerant and couldn't eat the toast, etc. Getting applesauce instead would have been $1.99 each. Home fries and hash browns were not greasy at all. Really friendly staff.

FANTASTIC FOOD. Visiting from Nashville. Found this spot through Yelp and are planning to return on Monday (tomorrow is Easter Sunday.) Our family highly recommends the biscuits and gravy, BLT, western omelette, and choc chip pancakes.

This place is a great spot to get away from the tourist traps. Seemed to be the place locals go for breakfast. Everything was very good and had that homemade taste to it. Only problem is if you use the address that is on Yelp, it will take you to a parking lot across the street. So don't be fooled look on the left side of the road next to TJ Maxx and you will find the Neighborhood Cafe!

Two visits. First visit was with a large group (10+) on Sunday. Took 15 minutes for seating to become available. Not much wait room. Second visit was mid-week with a smaller group. We were seated immediately but service was slower. Took about 10 minutes before drink orders were taken. Took close to 45 minutes before food arrived. Other than that, our food was delish. Biscuits and gravy and garbage omelet were tops on our list. Would we visit again? You betcha, but be prepared to wait.

Great breakfast diner. The trick to finding the place, the address is correct, is the the street it is on sort of changes names and numbers! Close to US98/beach it's called Mary Ester ---Blvd--- and you are in the city of Mary Ester. But the diner is in Fort Walton and the street changes names in Fort walton to Mary Ester ---NW---. If you are coming up from the beach/98, just keep going until you see the TJ Max department store...

Service was great, decaf coffee was hot (I'm pregnant, so I'm limited!), and the food was good. I went to eat there by myself on a Tuesday morning. It was nice. The blueberry pancakes had real blueberries in them, but since I'm not much of a pancake fan, I wasn't really interested. I did enjoy my two over hard eggs, bacon, and hashbrowns. I could have eaten my weight in hashbrowns. They were not greasy at all and they were perfectly cooked. I will definitely return. The service itself was worth a return trip.

Came here on the way out to Destin from Pensacola and really enjoyed the meal. The service was great, even though I got a little confused when I walked in and walked past the line of people because I thought there was the usual wait list you get put on, when really it is you just wait in line to get seated. Everything tasted extremely fresh and wasn't excessive like some breakfast places are (like too much grease, too much cheese, just overloaded toppings). This really made for a simple yet delicious omelet. Will definitely be back here again when we make our trips out to Destin!!!!!

Stopped in here this morning for breakfast for the first time. Nothing special, but everything was good and very reasonably priced. I had the lumberjack special that came with 2 eggs, 3 pieces of bacon, 2 sausage patties, 2 slices of french toast, and hash browns for less than $9. Since I'm moving to the area I would return again and recommend.

I've eaten here a few times for lunch and loved the food. It's like I made it in my own kitchen, not greasy or fake (which I've found is the norm for little cafes). I had breakfast there yesterday and have to go again! I had the lumberjack, which included eggs. I got scrambled, which are usually questionable in other breakfast places, but these were perfect. Not runny or tasting like egg beaters. The pancakes were far better than ihop and waffle house.

I went here twice for breakfast and was happy with the food/service both times. The have a decent breakfast menu and the prices are very reasonable. If you're looking for eggs, hash browns, pancakes and such, go here for sure. This place has very limited hours so make sure to plan accordingly.

Ok, so I have only been here once but I think I found my favorite breakfast place in Ft. Walton Beach. I had the eggs benedict special and it was great. The home fries were good too. Our server was so sweet and was very attentive. Things that stood out to me : The bathroom was clean and the high chairs were SUPER clean. If you are a mom you know that this is never the case. I don't know if they are new or what but it says a lot to me about how they may keep the back of the house. Clean is good. I'm glad I gave this place a try today and hope they keep it up for my next visit. I'll let you know how the lunch is...

This place is like traveling back in time to Mayberry from the Andy Griffith Show. Family-run, friendly staff who stop to ask how you're doing (and they really seem to be interested). Food is outstanding. I haven't had anything bad to eat here in more than three visits. The most recent visit, I got the eggs benedict special. It was delicious - eggs are always cooked just right, the hash browns are never overdone or too greasy. They have great blueberry pancakes, too, made with fresh berries. The price is affordable, and the food is consistently above average. Great place to go for a late breakfast on the weekends or a home-cooked lunch during the week.

The whole family likes this place. I've been here at least a dozen times and the food usually is good.

Best breakfast in Fort Walton Beach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We love this place. Not only was the wait staff and patrons very nice but my breakfast was really good and cheap. I had an egg white, bacon and cheese omelette with a side order of grits. I asked for cheese in my grits and it came melted in with the grits. This is one of the few times a restaurant EVER got it right. This will definitely be a stop for us when we are in the area.

Breakfast here is great. Not a place to go if your in a hurry but if you're looking for an alternative to Waffle House or Denny's, this is the place. I loved the MonteCrisco sandwich - ham, cheese and turkey sandwiched between slices of French toast and smothered in butter and syrup. Yum!

Just ate here with the family. Food was great and prices very reasonable-especially in light of how expensive everything is in nearby Destin. Very large portions of traditional home cooked breakfast foods. Would have given it 5 stars but it took a long time to get our meal. Defiantly recommend this place if you like a good old fashioned southern breakfast.
