Been here a couple times now. One of the best diners in the neighborhood. Full breakfast and lunch menu. Went on a Monday and was still busy Id expect a wait on weekends. Service was fast and friendly. The pancake was good a little sweet for my liking. The grits weren’t traditional southern grits they had peppers and a few other things not my favorite but they were good. Prices are very fair for the neighborhood I’d give a try!

Sitting outside is good when the weather permits. Staff is very friendly and social. The food arrives in a reasonable amount of time. Would highly recommend to my family and friends!

The food was super delish and our server was fantastic! They got us in quick but there was definitely a sizable wait so be aware of that!

Great food and service. This was the second time I've eaten here and I got breakfast. Last time I got the burger and it was very good. The fries were great too and I definitely recommend going for happy hour to get the discounted burger. I got Joe's Special, which was excellent and my partner got the Crab Cakes Benedict which also was great and the egg yolks were the perfect consistency. 10/10 would recommend

This place is great for breakfast! I enjoy this place always. Good food, nice staff, quick service, always packed but that’s a good sign.

The crab cake comes with an amazing peanut sauce and lemon aioli. I also tried the French toast special which was amazing, I wish it was permanently on the menu, looking forward to trying the biscuits and gravy.

Everything was delicious, our waiter was very attentive and it’s a very cute environment. The only complaint I have is how long we waited for our food. Otherwise everything was great.
I got the honey butter chicken biscuit which was very fresh, kinda a chicken fried steak consistency so very crunchy and add some honey to it & it’s top notch! The other plate is the French toast special. it’s THE BEST FRENCH TOAST IVE EVER HAD.

Casual diner style eatery.
The food was good and the service was top notch. Vibe was chill and people were having their breakfast and going about their ways full and satisfied.
Food:
Only did breakfast.. Had biscuits and gravy, the special peach fruit pancake (special because the fruit or filling changes every so often), and the crab cake eggs benedicts. It was a lot of food but all was tasty and no leftovers, hah. The biscuits and gravy weren't hot enough like they were sitting out a bit too long before getting to the table, not a big deal, still good. The pancake was light and fluffy with sliced peaches embedded throughout. Crab cake Benedict was mid and pricey, not bad but Id get something else next time. Overall, good breakfast food.
Service:
Good service, attentive and friendly waiter, no complaints.
Price:
Typical prices. No complaints.

I had the crabcakes Benedict, the crabcake themselves were kind of skimpy, and the hollandaise sauce was a little too lemony. Atmosphere was nice. Service was OK. I felt they had a nice selection on their menu. I would go back.

Counter Cafe is an incredible little spot. True to diner fashion. It does have table service. The breakfast is awesome and the Counter Burger is the best ever! A great crowd in here staff and patrons alike. It’s such a pleasure that this esteemed establishment is now in my neighborhood.
