Reviews for Brooks Breakfast & Lunch Cafe in Douglassville, PA

We go here quite a lot. Usually get one of the many breakfast offerings. Creamed dried beef is a favorite as is the sausage... gravy with biscuits. Seasonal crepes are offered monthly. Read more

Everyone should eat there, but not when I'm there! Great food, usually great service! Last time, not so much!

Service is super and the breakfast is delicious! The outside picnic tables are very nice too.

I ordered cream chipped beef over home fries for take out and when we got home this is their idea of breakfast!

I have been here before and have always had a pleasant experience. I was excited to bring my mom there who was visiting from out... of state and hyped up how good the food and everything was there. We sat down with 2 other tables of two people. Literally thesmallest crowd I've seen in there for breakfast. Our young blonde server was slow and was too busy chatting with one other tableof young girls. Anytime we needed her, my mom had to wave her down. My mom asked her 3 times for lemon in her water whicih waspretty simple. Silverware was not made available to us until after food was served and she never came back to check on us at allto ask how the food was, again, unless we waved her over. I ordered the Hawaiian sandwich which was featured on thick toast withpineapple, bacon, a burger patty, cheese and tomato. My mom ordered the sticky bun sandwich with egg, sausage and cheese on asticky bun and we chose to share half of each. Her sticky bun sandwich was great. My sandwich came with not a piece of pineappleand one ridiculous piece of bacon. When I realized there was no pineapple, I called her over. She asked, would you like me tobring the pineapple to you or make a new sandwich. I said I'd like a sandwich since that is what I ordered. She brought it back,this time correct, and it was one silly ring of pineapple. I couldn't believe it. I thought the sandwich was absolutely pitifuland the server was somewhere in the clouds the whole time. I won't be back and I won't embarrass myself by taking anyone elsethere again. Such a shame because it used to be a great place. Read more

If you want some raw eggs then you should for sure go here. My sister and I both got what should be poached eggs and I got eggs... benedict, same thing. Our eggs looked like they were just placed on the plate and never poached. ( look at the picture, and haveyou ever seen hollandaise sauce that looked like that???) Mortified. I should have went to McDonald's. Read more

Went for lunch with a friend, will never be back. As other reviewers have said, I am an ex-waitress and can forgive a lot in a... server, but the service in this place is inexcusably terrible. The restaurant was not full and was not understaffed. Our youngserver did not greet us politely and did not provide her name. When I ordered an appetizer and asked for it to be prepared whilemy friend looked over the menu, the waitress went to put in the order for the appetizer and never came back. We waited twentymore minutes, during which the appetizer failed to arrive, before I went to the counter to ask when our entree order would betaken. I was told "we don't really do appetizers like that and I didn't know you were ready to order." If appetizers are on themenu then why don't the serving staff know how to serve them? After I complained the server never returned to our table, she lether manager bring our food and refill our drinks. Macaroni bites were bland and subpar (especially for the price) but I ate thembecause at that point we were starving. Fries were mediocre at best. Chicken sandwich was inedible, I took one bite and spit itout. The grilled chicken was rubbery and undercooked, and my friend found a hair on my plate and tried to discreetly brush itaway so I wouldn't bring it to our very inattentive server's attention but by that point I was so disgusted I just wanted toleave anyway.

Service was great, waitstaff were friendly and attentive, food was delicious, and the value was solid. The interior has a fun,... 70s-80s vibe, coffee was strong, and our food was piping hot, fresh, and quite tasty. The crepes and omelettes were also uniqueto the place; interesting recipes ? We'll definitely be returning for weekend brunches. Read more
