Another Broken Egg Cafe - Duluth

Additionally, I was not made aware of the limitations regarding the "birthday pancakes." Given my experience, it’s unlikely I’ll return, especially since we had a similar issue during my wife’s birthday in January. She ordered pancakes with mixed berries, but they only managed to get the order right after the first batch of dark pancakes didn’t meet her expectations. Ideally, pancakes should come out golden brown, not dark and uninviting.

Once our drinks arrived, our toddler accidentally spilled some water. The waitress provided a stack of napkins but didn’t offer any assistance with the clean-up. She didn’t check in on us afterward or update us on our order. To make matters worse, we waited about 45 minutes for our food while our toddlers grew hungry, restless, and started to cry. The room was uncomfortably warm, adding to the overall stress of the situation. Throughout our visit, I noticed that the front-of-house manager did not stop by to see how we were doing, despite the evident chaos in the kitchen, as suggested by various staff comments. Other customers were also clearly facing long wait times. The hostesses appeared overwhelmed and confused, frequently huddled together and unsure of how to address customer concerns. While we waited, I took the initiative to ask one of the hostesses about booster seats. She could only suggest one type, which wasn’t appropriate for our children. The better options were located near the restrooms, but we weren’t made aware of those. By the time our food finally arrived, we were so frazzled that it was difficult to enjoy it. Overall, poor management and a lack of attentiveness from the staff led to a frustrating dining experience. I hope they can make improvements in the future, as they certainly have potential.

I had been really looking forward to trying this restaurant, so we decided to choose it for my birthday brunch. The food and service far exceeded our expectations! Both of our entrees were fantastic—I had the seasonal Piccata Benedict, and it was truly delicious. Our server, Shawn, was exceptionally friendly and attentive. I also loved the coffee cups they used; at the moment, they serve the best coffee of all my favorite brunch spots. When my husband wanted to buy one as a birthday gift for me, they kindly gave it to us for free. The menu offers a great mix of classic dishes and more adventurous options, ensuring there's something for everyone. I appreciate that they have a pet-friendly patio, so we look forward to bringing our cavapoo with us this summer for breakfast and brunch! I'm so glad we finally had the chance to experience Another Broken Egg; we've found a place that our whole family will enjoy!

This is certainly one of the best ABEs! We were seated right away without any wait. The restaurant has a roomy layout, featuring a large covered patio outside. Our server was prompt and efficient. I tried the Napoleon Temptation with scrambled eggs and bacon, and it was incredibly tasty! I suggest arriving early on Saturdays; we got there before 10 AM, and by the time we left around 11:30, the place was crowded. Be sure to join the waitlist on their website—it really does work!

I also ordered a Bloody Mary cocktail, but it had way too much Tabasco sauce, making it anything but refreshing. My husband and I were both disappointed with our breakfast and decided that we wouldn't return.
