This is going to sound funny but their bagel and cream cheese is so die for. I love the people that work here, I walk my dog here and always chat with them. Something about this place warms my heart. This is my dad and i's go to breakfast spot before any eventful day. I love this place.
All the food here is delicious and the service is fantastic! We forgot to take pictures of the pancakes and country fried steak but everything we ordered was delicious. The pancakes were the fluffiest pancakes I've ever had! Can't wait to try other items on their menu. Classic diner ambiance!
Great place to get donuts and breakfast. Simple breakfast and quick. Portions are large and filling. Can't go wrong with corn beef hash and donuts will be back for quick breakfast or donuts now. The prices is reasonable and parking is ample on broadway in the morning to grab a quick bite.
The owner is really top notch. I ordered turkey, bacon, lettuce and avocado sandwich and she allowed me to substitute the turkey for two over hard eggs instead. Also got fruit instead of fries. Great place!
Solid breakfast place with a diner feel + donuts. If you do a Yelp checkin you receive a free donut. Food was good and service was fast.
Quick and delicious breakfast before dropping my son off at the airport. Friendly service with an old diner feel. We enjoyed all the traditional breakfast items and loved the donuts. Hashbrowns were crispy and all our eggs were cooked perfectly. The Country fried steak was impressive-crispy, thick and meaty. I really enjoyed my glazed old fashioned with coffee. We had to get some more donuts to go. We'll definitely be back!
I was pretty impressed with my visit to Royal Donut Cafe. I didn't come for their donuts, but for their breakfast and they had some of the best country fried steak I've had a in a while. The interior is very dated so that might turn some people off, but they are expanding the restaurant and taking over the space next door. They said that there is a possibility that they open for dinner in the future too. Staff were very friendly as well. Parking in the area is certainly a pain in the area, but there are paid parking lots near by. Country Fried Steak & Eggs ($15.95) was what I ordered and it was massive. I was stuffed after eating it and the steak had the perfect breading. The sausage gravy was very tasty and the hash browns were also a large portion. The eggs they also cooked really well and they don't overcook them like I accidently do at home because I love runny eggs. It is definitely worth a visit here although I have no input on their donuts or pastries personally. Their breakfast is top tier though and you get large portions. Would recommend this breakfast spot to anyone in the area.
Went for Breakfast Food - 5/5. Country fried steak was tender and meaty with a satisfying crunchy batter. Gravy had a thick consistency that created a dense, creamy texture which moistened the fried dish. Flavor was rich with plenty of black pepper that paired well with the steak. Hash browns had a nice crunch while maintaining the soft bite of potato. Eggs were soft and the rye bread was toasted well. Service - 4/5. Quick and friendly service. Value - 5/5. Breakfast items are reasonably priced being in the low to mid 10s for most items. Most breakfast platters come with choice of eggs, hash browns and toast making for hefty portion sizes. Fantastic breakfast location! Parking - Street (Metered)
