Hidden gem! We are visiting and wanted a nice homey-feeling breakfast and found Hovie’s. The waitstaff were very nice and attentive. The food is GREAT! It was exactly what we were craving. They prefer you pay with cash, so make sure you take some!

Easy parking. Across the street from Hy-Vee in a little strip mall By Napa auto parts and Wildcat’s Bar and Grill and Original mattress factory. Not busy. Greeted right away. Sit where you like. Served right away. Clean quiet family diner. I had the Sliced Steak and Eggs with toast and coffee. $17…The steak was savory tender and basted eggs were done just right. Attentive service Checked in on me a couple times To see if I needed anything and always kept my coffee cup full. They had a counter with The Wheel of Fortune the TV. Thanked me when I left. Overall very good 😊 will be back.

Such a nice breakfast place. Run by such a friendly family who make sure you’re well served. The breakfast is always spot on and lovely

We’ve lived in Eagan 15 years and only just discovered Hovies. Best diner we’ve found in all of the Twin Cities metro area and I can’t believe it’s in our town! First off, the service wasn’t just good, it was exceptional-the woman who served us was warm and welcoming. And the food! The omelette was stuffed with cheese. It was piping hot and the toast came out warm, too, with butter covering the toast (I hate cold toast with a squirt of liquid fat). The breakfast potatoes were fresh, perfectly crispy, and notable for the lack of rancid fat after taste that so many diners have on their potatoes. Also, the diner was CLEAN!! It was old, charming, but-and I can’t stress this enough-clean. The floor wasn’t sticky or slippery. The old sports memorabilia and pictures on the wall weren’t dusty or grimy. The condiments weren’t scummy. The salt and pepper shakers sparkled. And the bathroom, while also old, was very, very clean. Our new favorite Saturday morning outing!

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Service was so friendly and top notch. Food was amazing. Makes me mad I ever went to Perkins. This is easily the best breakfast in Eagan if not the southern metro. Cannot recommend enough!

One of the best chocolate chip pancake place I’ve been to. The service may take longer than other places but the people are really nice and kind. the food is great and very tasty I would go any day at anytime

It's a great little place with amazing service and great food.

Loved it!! We stopped on our way out of town and so glad we stopped here instead of an ihop or perkin. Food was incredible, place was very clean and everyone working was very kind and welcoming. Thank you!

This place is honestly a hidden gem. Really good food, the waffle and eggs benedict were great. The place itself is a little small but a good, homey vibe. Seemed to be a very well ran family business and there was little wait.

Wow 😱 this food is amazing!!! huge portions too! Definitely the spot to be! Their buffalo collusion sauce is fire 🔥 will definitely be back! Thank you!

I really love Hovie's corned beef and hash. This restaurant is run by a wonderful, hardworking family. Very friendly atmosphere!
