Wow, this place impressed me and made my Saturday AM special. We like to use Entertainment coupons and this hidden gem was in our book. We had previously found it when it was a Mexican restaurant and sad to see it leave, as the family who owned it was so friendly. Today found that same feeling again. Felt like I was in a cute Door County WI cafe. Super friendly staff and I can see they work hard. Quite a bit of specials listed in two boards plus a lot to choose from menu for breakfast. They even have pumpkin pancakes and other pumkin items. I had something different called Chicken Fajita omelette. At first wasnt sure if I liked it, but it truly was yummy and something truly different for an omelette. Plus it came with the best crispy hash browns Ive ever had at a restaurant ever and the best tasting pancakes Ive ever had. Seems like all food is truly home made and one table at a time. Wait staff keep your coffee, water, etc filled at times. Wait staff have smiles on their faces and caring. I would have given one more star but I think booths need new seats and decor could be a bit more decorative. Lastly, Im sure it was a complete accident but the waitress said my omelette fell off of the plate and they had to make me a new one. That was fine but my husband completely finished his breakfast before mine came and I think it was caused as it was in a small plastic plate whereas his was served (he also had an omelette) on a pretty ceramic normal size plate. I think they could stand to buy all matching plates as I saw a variety and serve a big breakfast on a normal size plate it a small plastic one. Food really is tremendous. Due to each tables food being made to order it seemed to have taken a bit longer than other places. That was fine with me as it tasted so good and again caring wait staff. Place is bright and clean, lots of parking but since its so good you might have to wait for a table. Its sort of small and quaint but worth it. As soon as a family fishies it was amazing how quickly another family walked in to dine here. They had non stop flow of customers and every table was filled. To me this means really good food. Nobody had to wait more than five minutes. Great job Eggspress! Cant wait to come back again. I rarely rate restaurants unless the place super impressed me and Im picky.

I frequent this place about 12 times every month & would even more if I had the time! As many times I have been here, Im shocked I havent given THE BEST a review already. You can taste the love & home-made goodness in every bite of anything you order off the menu. Nearly everything is homemade, so many excellent things to order I have trouble ordering just one thing when I go! And the service is excellent! Laid back Breakfast, Eggspress Cafe atmosphere makes you feel like very welcome as you chat it up with your server. They love regulars, make it a point to remember what you drink-and most of the time what you eat as well. If you havent tried this little gem Eggspress Cafe -it is a MUST!!

This place is a hidden gem most definetly. .love the food. Every bit of the menu is made from scratch. Especially the corned beef, omg to die for!!! My family frequents this place and the staff know us on first name basis. Highly recommended, however you must sometimes wait and the saying goes "good things come to those who wait". Dining area is small but that is how the owners want it, small quaint little popular diner. Absolutely fantastic.!!!

We have been coming here for a long time now and the food gets better and better all the time. The staff is amazing , and we have come to know the people as a little family. It is nice to know them and it is great they know. I encourage you to try it. It is a hidden gem that needs to be found.

A bit townie on a weekday morning but my breakfast was amazingly good! I may not ever go to Blue Bay/Mrs. Vs again for breakfast. Seating area is small and we only had one waitress but she was quick and efficient and we waited for nothing. Worth the trek!

Good food at a good price. Even if its busy, its never a long wait. Ask for flavored creamers...they dont leave them out. Lots of creative choices along with the standards. We go here a lot. Family run. Dont have to be a local to feel at home.

We had a great experience here the food was delicious! and the price was reasonable the only thing I have to complain about is their hours I wish they would close a bit later than 2:00 oclock. Just keep in mind that they close early

Delicious food and great service. Its a small family place by ace hardware, I had the biscuits and gravy with 2 eggs, hash Browns, and pancakes, the only downside is that they are only open until 2pm.

This is the best breakfast place around. The owner uses fresh, real ingredients-- No canned hollandaise sauce here. Anything you order will be delicious. diamond in the rough.

Lunch was very mediocre and not a great value for the quality. Perhaps breakfast is better because Im not sure where all the glowing reviews are coming from.

Everything is made from scratch, the chef worked at walker brothers for many years. Loved the techniques they use to make the eggs and omelets.
