Where is the Best Breakfast in Cincinnati, Ohio?
My family and I would go to Daybreak all the time for Sunday breakfast. The last 2 times we have gone, we feel that the service and quality of food has traveled downhill. Seating takes forever, cups are cracked and the wait for your order to come to the table is insane. Being a mom with two young children, speedy service is the key to happy customers. The original staff is down to two waitresses, who are wonderful. Unfortunately, they are not a reason to keep eating at Daybreak. I hope the new owners of Daybreak get things together or, I fear, they will loose their long time loyal customers.Pros + original watiresses, if you can get them, are wonderful!! Food okayCons – long wait for seating and for food order, smells odd, like frying oil. You leave with the smell on you. Gross
Whenever we are in the Cincy area, usually for baseball or shows at Southgate House, my group and I always head over to the Anchor for breakfast/lunch before heading home to Chicago. I love places that you can walk into and know it ‘s exactly the same way it was 50 years ago. I always order the goetta, a dish that can only be found in that region of Ohio/Kentucky. You can order it on it’s own or inside an omlette. The prices are dirt cheap too!If you like authentic old-timey, greasy spoon diners, make sure to stop here if you are in the area. Pros + Old-timey / good grub / cheapCons – Smokey
If you want charm and good ole’ fashioned service then you must visit Price Hill Chili. Price Hill Chili has expanded over the years and has many dining options including: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. If you are from out of town you have to try the homemade Goetta (what’s Goetta? stop by and ask). And if you are a fan of highschool football stop by and tell them you are a Moeller Fan and see the reaction. Price Hill Chili is home to the 2002 State Champion Elder Panthers and their Purple Pack.(Note: Despite what the Editorial says, this is “not” a Mexican restaurant)Pros + Atmosphere, Value, Good Parking
My pregenant wife enjoyed the food so much that, after giving birth early on May 2 (at Bethesda North Hospital), she requested I get her an TOPH omelete. After standing in line for over thirty minutes, the manager informed me their policy was not to do “to-go-orders” when busy. I could sit and eat, but not place an order for my wife. I explained my situation, and was appalled he insisted she would not get anything to eat from them. I went down the road to First Watch and was in-and-out in 15 minutes.I understand the concept of a “policy”, but the basis of any good business (especially in the service industry) should be “Principles”. Things such as “the customer is always right”, or “making an exception in a special situation”. I have a “Principle” : ‘You don’t want my business, you don’t get it’Pros + inexpensiveCons – crowded, no reservations
