I love this little Cafe.I always have the biscuits and gravy and they never fail to satisfy. The staff are friendly and efficient. Its got the good old diner/cafe feel to it.
The Staff was Great Very Nice And On Top Of It The Food Was Pretty Good And Came Out Quickly The Coffee Was Good! Overall Great Experience! Oh And Not Too Expensive!
Me and my parents went there today for breakfast and absolutely loved it. The food was amazing and so was the service. I strongly recommend!
They were extremely busy when I went but they were able to squeeze my group of four in still. The staff was very kind to us and the food was great! I love their home style fries. Very affordable as well.
Food wasnt the best. French toast tasted bland. Eggs and bacon were better. Customer service was great.
It was a decent breakfast. The servers are great! Its worth eating at.Great home atmosphere with home cooking. Try it!Dog friendly with outside eating!
Good selection of full breakfasts on the menu and on the special menu. Eggs are cooked properly so are the potatoes whether you get hash browns or home fries theyll even cook them crispier if you want them to a wide range of meats to go with those usually toast is included also. The breakfast range from about $11.50 to $12.50 for todays higher prices with everything thats going on its very reasonable for the amount and quality of food you get not to mention good service.
No frills. Food is ok. It was hit and miss. Eggs cooked well but lacked seasoning. Biscuit and gravy: had 2 bites and gave up on it. Hash browns: delicious. French toast: lacked flavor and texture. All meals were around $12 each. Overall, it was ok. Nothing terrible, nothing to make me want to go back.
Friendly place. Food was good. Customer service was good as well
We Googled places to eat and this place came up. I like the menu &pictures of food. It was a small restaurant... it that was fine with us. Our waitresse was very nice . We didnt have to wait long to be seated, order our food or get our food after we ordered. Everything looked delicious and tastes good. If were in the part of town again. Will be sure to come back againThank you for your pleasant hospitality and yummy food..🤓
Small but worth the wait.. out of towner, looking for something different and enjoyed food.
Very big breakfast burrito to go, it smelled so good I ate it in the parking lot. 😆
Great food, great prices and an awesome staff! A complete proper diner experience.Thank you for making your customers feel at home!
Our tab was paid by our waitress and this establishment takes care of their military veterans. I would recommend anyone who wants a great restaurant to eat great quality food to come here. Bathrooms were clean and plenty of parking and seating.
Super cute...good food...nice people
Amazing food! The food was ordered and recieved faster than most places Ive visited. Delicious, fresh, biscuits and gravy were spot on as well as the eggs benedict. Our server Kathy was super nice and very attentive! Highly recommend.
Best French toast ! Always tasty breakfast!
Is a perfect place to enjoy breakfast by Sundays with my husband 💕
Good service. Cool atmosphere. Very good veggie omelet. Well be back.
Great food and is currently doing 25% indoor dining according to what is allowed. Will be coming back again.
Great food. Good service
Belgian waffle & bacon. Excellent coffee.
Awesome food, good prices, excellent service! One of my favorite spots! Theyre doing a really good job with covid precautions too. Favorite breakfast in town!
Sorry eggs benedict wasnt very good but the pea soup was excellent
Friendly service and phenomenal breakfast.
Worst place ever!!!! Way too expensive 11.00 for concrete gravy they cant even put on a biscuit for you. I wouldnt geed the starved this food! Budget is a joke!!! Horrible food! Worst place I have ever eaten! I would give negative stars if i could!
Good service, basic good food.
Great service and food.
Excellent food in a very safe and friendly environment. Had the fried chicken salad. Crispy chicken and a lot of it. Owner stopped by to check up. Ill go back.
3 breakfasts to go.Short wait.
One of my favorite places to go for a good old fashioned breakfast. My wife and I have been eating here for years. The service staff is always friendly, the food is tasty and the serving size is large.The Budget has all the normal favorites for breakfast, and I can recommend any of them, had them all over the years. They do have a couple of outside tables and on a warm morning it is pleasant to sit outside. There is the morning newspaper for those that still like to read newsprint.The parking lot has accessible parking for free and the entrance is accessible. There is an accessible bathroom, but it is a little tight to get to and a little small.For a good old fashioned breakfast at a local cafe that has been here for years, you cant beat the Budget Cafe.
Great breakfast!
Old fashioned diner with a counter. It has a big menu and two daily special whiteboards. I had a delicious blueberry waffle loaded with fresh blueberries. I also had a plentiful side order of crisp hash browns. Service is friendly but efficiency depends on the server. There is a real pro working along side a server who is nice but sometimes befuddled.
Great breakfast. Great service. Great price
Good food at reasonable prices. Waitress very efficient and a diligent. I enjoyed their chili size.
Wonderful local eatery although budget is not necessarily accurate to describe this place and while one could get a cheaper meal at Dennys, here, youre supporting the local economy, which is a good thing!
The food and staff are wonderful. Rhonda is the owner and she will always make the time to come and see if everything is going well. The waitresss are so welcoming and friendly they make sure that you feel like family. My client and I have been coming here for overs a year and when I lost one of them everyone here was very comforting to myself and her husband. I would like to thank all of the staff here.
It said they open at 6am. Here and its 612 theyre still closed.
Found this place while shopping at salon centric and I was not disappointed! Delicious food and great service, definitely stop by.(parking is a little tight)
I was called a man by the lady serving me. When I enquired as to why, she reiterated I did not look feminine and then proceeded to not apologize. I asked to speak with her manager who then told me I was threatening her. I have been a patron for years and have never been treated this way. Sad to see this kind of service from an establishment that has always been outstanding.
Love this place! An old fashioned family run coffee shop. One of our favorite breakfast places. Corned beef hash and eggs, waffles with strawberries and all the traditional stuff. Fast, friendly service.
Very good food and great service.
The food is amazing, and staff are super friendly
Needed breakfast and this place was it. The food, the ambient, the music was just right to get the day started. Thank you!
The foods good the prices are good. Ill go here again. It would be five stars but its not some super fancy or super good place.
Good food. Fast friendly Service. Large portions that must have a bearing on the price being a bit high.
This is actually Sandy Johnson. I went there the other morning because I wanted a buttermilk pancake. Worst ever. I even had to use a knife to cut it and it was still hard to do. The bacon was clearly made the day before and microwaved to warm it. I usually have good experiences here with my husband. The waitress was on point however, but I didnt tell her.
Foods good. Nice people. Not the prices I was expecting (a little high) Id give it a 2 to 3 dollar sign out of 4. Over all cool local little breakfast joint.
Good food
I have had breakfast here twice in the last month and find the staff to be on so friendly, the service to be above average, and the food preparation and quality to be very nice. So if you want a nice breakfast, at a place that is out of the hustle and bustle this is the place. to go. Small and homey and I will be coming back again!
Great for tasty down home cooking at a reasonable price. The friendly staff provide quick service greeting the regulars and newbies alike. All feel at home.
Great food. Wonderful staff and service.
Great breakfast
Good was great and service was fantastic . Servers were very friendly and attentive.
Delicious food! Friendly, prompt service.
Great local diner with the best basic breakfast and good coffee too. Very friendly staff.
Perfect breakfast joint for locals looking for an old school diner breakfast...no frills, just classic.
Very good...tasty food. Service was excellent.
We went years ago and couldnt remember why we never went back. Now we remember......horrible service and mediocre food.
Small, comfortable place with good food at decent prices
So fresh and delicious
Mom and pop style coffee shop.A no frills good ol American breakfast that wont break the bank!But fir me the best part was that she never let my coffee cup run dry.Thats how it used to be and how it should be.Cudos to my waitress!
Always good food, fresh, and friendly service.
I gave this place 5 stars, because the service was fast and friendly the people were willing to talk and they had humor. The food was delightful, it was a calm enviorment.
Nice atmosphere, good food, and good service.
Local, hometown feel, classic, good.food. a bit pricey for what it is.
Good food, friendly staff definitely a throwback from the old SLO. Well worth a visit.
Friendly people, hometown cafe with all the food items youd expect good prices and good service.
Friendly, warm environment. Great options and specials offered.
I had a waffle topped with fruit and I was impressed! Most places make you pick a fruit to top your waffle with. Here, I got bananas, strawberries and blueberries!
Great food - baked bacon, fresh and crispy has browns, eggs were perfect over easy - friendly staff, my coffee cup was never empty, and I wasnt rushed out. I will be visiting again soon!
My three of my four criterias were met: clean, delicious food, prompt and curtious service.
Excellent little spot with great service and food!
Friendly place full of mostly locals. Good sized portions of good food at reasonable prices. Not fancy - come as you are and no one will judge.
Great prices 👌 and damn good home cooked food. And you get a lot of food
Nice and cozy breakfast and lunch spot. Friendly staff but I feel it is a bit ill-named as I would not consider their prices to be budget. Expect to pay more than say at a Dennys for example.
Food was good. Breakfast under $20.00. Hard to find these days.
Very good and friendly. Great clam chowder
Great breakfasts. Old time diner feel w lots of regulars
We hadnt been there in a long time, unfortunately they were busy, only one waitress, we placed our order, took a long time, my breakfast was not hot barely warm, husbands was lukewarm and she forgot his toast, then brought cold toast. It was not a good experience, especially after seeing people who ordered after us, get their hot steaming food at the same time.
Very good food grate prices and the staff is very nice.
Tasteless breakfast Potatos. Flies all over
Great food, personable staff and decent prices...a great place for breakfast or lunch in SLO.
Wonderful breakfast. Friendly staff. Large portions. Very satisfied.
Excellent food and service I would recommend it to go there to all my friends and every one that reads this 👍👍
Amazing comfort food for a great price!
Amazing food and great service!
The food is very good and the waitress, Lynnette was awesome!
Dropped in after dropping of a vehicle at Big Brand and it was a short walk up higuera. Good coffee and carrot nut muffin is delicious. No wifi i can discover which is why the 4 stars but atmosphere is cozy and staff are friendly amd courteous
Great food! Service was up front and special.
Great food and service! My first time there and Ill be back.
The food was excellent and the staff was amazing!! Sue was our server and she called us by name!! Overall good experience!!
Nice small place, great food and just the right amount of attention paid by the waitress.
