Grabbed for lunch! The food was fast, had generous portions and tasted great!

We were looking for a good breakfast place on our trip home from vacation and could not be happier with Shyley’s Kitchen! Friendly staff, fast service and full of locals on Saturday at 12 noon. There are a few stands and a number of tables for many seats. The French toast was perfect! Fluffy with tons of cinnamon that was delicious! My husband had the Shyley stuffed with sausages and potatoes with peppers, onions, mushrooms and a ton of cheese and scrambled eggs! Great portions and great prices!

There was a bit of a wait for the food, but the service and food quality were outstanding. I'm really glad we decided to stop here.

I've tried other places for breakfast, but nothing comes close to Shyleys! The waitress, Sydney, is incredibly friendly. The food is fresh and delicious—kudos to the chef!

We were searching for a great breakfast spot on our drive back from vacation, and we couldn't have been more pleased with Shyley's Kitchen! The staff was friendly, the service was quick, and the place was bustling with locals on a Saturday at noon. There are several booths and tables, offering ample seating. The French toast was fantastic—light and fluffy, with just the right amount of cinnamon—absolutely delicious! My husband tried the Shyley's skillet, which had sausage and potatoes, topped with peppers, onions, mushrooms, a generous amount of cheese, and scrambled eggs. The portion sizes were wonderful, and the prices were excellent!
