    My wife and I stopped in here today after an appointment we had downtown. This place is the perfect breakfast / brunch spot! My wife and I both had the Belgian Waffle and sausage breakfast plates. One word, WOW! Our server, Amanda, was just as sweet as she could be! I even had a chance to say hello to the owner who was working his tail off like everyone else. I highly recommend you stop in if you get the chance. You wont be sorry! Five star service all day!

    My favorite breakfast place in town, and I don't say that lightly! Wonderful local breakfast stop, very friendly staff and truly delicious food! My favorite is their breakfast burrito with a side of biscuits and gravy, it never disappoints! I would highly recommend.

    The brunch club is always a great Dayton staple. The service is always nice and the food is very very good. Had the short stack of blueberry pancakes eggs and home fries. Parking is a little hectic and there are not a lot of seats in the dining area so you may have a bit of a wait but it’s worth it.

    Food was absolutely delicious. Almost everything went smooth with a big group order (9+ people) dine in. Waitress was present enough and was swift to follow through with whatever request was asked. It was my first time there and I was impressed to say the least. Parking lot is a little small which sucks cause then parking can become scares as the placement of the building isn't really ideal to pull to a neighboring parking lot to park and walk over. All in all 8/10 would recommend and will go again, and would recommendcar pulling if taking large groups to avoid no parking spots.

    My birthday breakfast. Only the second time we were there. First, we ran into Dayton's Mayor. He was so kind and even took a birthday picture with me. I had ordered a bacon/cheese omelet with their home fries. It was so gooood! The service was just as good as the first visit (part of the reason for the second visit). We all have driven by this place numerous times. It takes one time to stop for breakfast, and you will be back again, and again, and again.

    The table was dirty(napkin with utensils was stuck to it), spice shakers totally disgusting & the chairs are so worn out that if you don't already have back issues, like myself, you certainly will be in pain after getting up. Clearly, the owner doesn't care what their establishment looks like. I guess they're only in it for the money. Also, the food was bland and horrible. I will never visit this filthy place again!!! I should mention that the staff was nice and attentive, however.

    The pancakes were crispy on the outside and so good. The waffle was yummy with a nutty flavor. We will come back.

    This is one of those establishments where you'll see the manager clearing plates & tables and walking around filling customers' coffee mugs, not barking orders and standing around . My girlfriend and I came here on a crowded Sunday morning and were seated promptly. This was our first time coming, so I took my time to survey the menu. Our waitress was very attentive and patient; she had to return to our table 3 times before I knew what I had an appetite for. I ordered the Chicken and Waffles with a side of Biscuits and Gravy; my girlfriend ordered The Jackpot Special (I think). While waiting for our food, I noticed the place has a nice sense of hustle and bustle, which I expected for a place this cozy, at capacity, during Sunday brunch. I didn't mind the "liveliness" at all. First, our biscuits and gravy came out piping hot, which we destroyed since it was the first thing we ate that day. Our main plates came out soon after (10min later). Everything was cooked to perfection. As you can see, she likes her eggs over easy. I don't, so I didn't try them. They put red onions in their potatoes, which I thought was a nice touch. My waffle was light and crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. My chicken was very good, however, I suspect they fry their chicken and fish in the same oil (??). I thought the crust tasted a bit fishy, so, if you have a fish allergy, I would ask. Altogether, we both enjoyed our food and first experience here. The bill came to just under $25 and we were in and out in less than an hour. I'll be returning here again.

    Pretty good breakfast food. I like the building. The eggs are buttery. The pancakes are fluffy in the middle and crispy on the edges. Bacon is amazing. Coffee is just alright. Would be cool if they got their coffee from ghostlight.

    Do NOT come here with more than 4; you will wait a loooong time. 2 people, not bad. The server was polite and accommodated a bad experience the best they could. They raised this place a star. Food was inexpensive, and standard American breakfast; nothing to get excited about. Sadly, everyone had something that was cold, and the food took a long time. Unending coffee never got refilled. All-in-all, a 2.5-hour experience none of us will repeat.

    I just finished having the potato pancake breakfast with coffee. Although I’m not a fan of onions and anything, the potato pancakes were outstanding, as was the rest of the breakfast with the eggs over medium and ham. Also, the coffee was good and the service was outstanding too.

    What a delightful, accidental find! Their claims that it tastes homemade are 100% true! My breakfast sandwich was AMAZING and that cinnamon roll was out of this world delicious!

  • 4/5 Becky P. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food! Terrific service ( you can't get a bad waitress)! Their menu is LARGE, and so are their portions; you couldn't possibly leave there hungry. Business is owner operated. He's there and will top off your coffee as he checks in on your visit. Building in need of update. But one of my most favorite spots!

  • 5/5 Tara F. 5 months ago on Google
    Loved stopping here for brunch! The pancakes were amazing and the prices were even better! I loved the atmosphere, the people, and the windows! It was great

    Came here with my daughter for breakfast while finding some place new to eat and the food was really good. My waitress was very nice and attentive and the manager (or owner) was also very friendly. If I'm in the area again I will be coming back here.

    Great spot to grab some breakfast! We were looking for a place to get brunch/breakfast and happened to drive by here. We turned around and stopped in and were not disappointed! I got the Corned Beef Hash. If I’m ever back in that area I’ll definitely stop back in. Good value for the amount and quality of food. Friendly staff!

  • 5/5 Kristin J. 1 year ago on Google
    I could tell from the pictures the food would be good and I was right!! It was delicious! We got there around 9:30 or 10 on a Saturday and were lucky to get a table right away. It's a hidden gem. The coffee was good too, nice and strong! The pancakes were the best I've had at a restaurant in a while.

    Our 2nd time there and we can't say enough. Pancakes are fluffy and light. Waffles are fantastic. Home fries with onions are crispy taste so damn good. We will back soon!

  • 5/5 Jessi S. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent brunch! The eggs were cooked perfectly and so good. Had a wonderful pancake too. My son loved his waffle and the warm strawberries on top were excellent. Definitely will be back.

    I have to say that this place was so good and staff was so friendly. The last time i was here i was so young with mom and family and they had cinnamon pancakes. Today i came here with my wife for my birthday and had the scrambler and pancakes and OMG amazing. She had a waffle topped with blue berries and whipped cream. Everything was so good. I will definitely be coming back and bringing my kids.

    Love the breakfast burrito, the potatoes were a little too burnt for my taste. My daughter had chicken and waffles which she really liked

  • 4/5 Brenda B. 1 year ago on Google
    The Brunch Club has great breakfast and lunch fare. On this visit, I ordered my home fries without onions but they didn't arrive that way. The waitress quickly made it right and got another plate of potatoes for me without onions. This place is on the small side but has great food. Highly recommend!

  • 2/5 Tiffany T. 1 year ago on Google
    Took over an hour to get seated. Another 15 minutes before someone asked for drink/food order. 12 minutes before we got our drinks. Another 35 for food. All the food was cold. Waitress was really friendly and apologetic about the food and service issues. I think they're understaffed and the place is way overcrowded. Won't be going back, first and only time there.

  • 1/5 Katrina R. 1 year ago on Google
    I waited in line for a group of 5 for an hour and a half. Once seated it took us another half hour to be acknowledged by our waitress, which takes us to the 2hr mark. It took another 12 min to get us our drinks. (The unlimited coffee isn't worth it since we got no refills, we weren't sure we wanted it anyway). Our food came out another half hour later. Unfortunately it was all cold. Mine came out incorrect, the waitress took it back to change out muffins (ordered Chipotle mayo and it came with regular, not a massive deal but I still wanted my order to be correct). Once she brought my food back it was cold again. I asked if it was supposed to be, she said no and went to the back and remade it herself. About 15 minutes later I had my remade (but still incorrectly made, missing lettuce and tomato) I still ate because I was starving, two and a half hours after arriving. I did receive a discounted bill but I doubt I'll ever go back. IF I ever return, it will be either by myself or with one other person and likely sit at the counter. We went to Dublin pub after to get warm food and mimosas

    I used to eat here weekly and they always served amazing food. Today not so much and I am extremely disappointed. Their food quality has changed significantly. The quality of the food is cheap and terribly cooked. I spent fifty dollars on four meals and we threw most of it away. I wouldn’t mind paying extra for good quality food, but this place is serving cheap, tasteless and almost inedible food. I will not be spending another dollar at this establishment!!!

  • 5/5 Kanata J. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff was welcoming. I haven't seen home fries like that since I was young. The bacon was done, not burnt. I could take my time and enjoy. I wonder if they serve grits?

  • 3/5 Hello 1 year ago on Google
    Before the pandemic this place was a five, but per the rise in chicken prices the quality is not as good. So long to the place that used to serve my favorite chicken and waffles. It hurts because I know they can't help it

  • 5/5 Erica C. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is always served hot, quick, and cooked to perfection. It's got wonderful service, plenty of options. Family and friends will enjoy this little nugget.

  • 5/5 Concepcion Garcia J. 2 years ago on Google
    I love corned beef hash, and this place makes it really well. We've been many times and haven't had a bad experience yet. The wait staff is friendly and don't chatting for a bit.
