I love this place! I've been coming for a while now, and the food is always great! One of the things that stands out is the Kahwa coffee they serve... one of my favorite roasters in the area. Great selection for both breakfast and lunch and a weekly special menu. The staff are some of the best in the area. Today is National Cheeseburger Day, so I went with the Grilled Cheese Burger! 2 grilled cheese sandwiches of your choice on sourdough, with an 8 Oz burger in the middle!
“ Warning“ ladies the firemen eat here a lot👍 It was our first time here at the café as we’re waiting for a meal was reading the reviews and cannot believe some of these one star reviews😱 yeah, outside area is very neat and clean. The inside of the restaurant is neat and clean. All staff members a polite clean the service is constantly being speeding the food was fresh, hot and enjoyable the bathrooms are very clean we found the food Very delicious and a great change form the other places we have been to. It is an upscale place so your prices will be higher but you pay for quality, especially location location👍 we are planning on coming back in the future❤️
Always good here. They're open from 6:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The half soup half salad is amazing. I swear the half salad is a full size salad. Waitresses are always friendly. You can sit inside or outside
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Everything was absolutely wonderful and the staff was incredible. Best tips our group has ever given. The food was to die for. The outdoor seating was wonderful. The prices were reasonable! Obviously by the pictures you can tell that the food was incredible. The crepes were to die for! Will definitely come back through again!
Always good food & the same friendly staff. Today was astonishingly because the waitress recognized me & handed me my handbag that had my license, medical card & wallet with money inside. I am stunned beyond words & so grateful.It has been missing for over two years. . How about that for pure honesty .Wow . Thank you Geraldine & Eastlake Cafe😍😇
Was a casual relaxing atmosphere. The food was excellent. The quantity and quality were both amazing. Won't be a need for lunch today. The staff was very pleasant and attentive. Nice and close to where I was staying and off the main drag so it wasnt noisy or overcrowded. Menu had a great variety of choices.
I been eating here for many years. I love sitting outside and eating it’s just so relaxing. The food has always been good. Today I had a Breakfast Skillet and it was really delicious. I don’t mind the price at all because there’s not many places in Palm Harbor Florida or in Oldsmar Florida where you can have a good breakfast and sit outside and enjoy the air. That’s exactly what I like! And I love this Side of Palm Harbor the Best! The Boot Ranch Area is really Nice!! It’s Clean and Beautiful! First Class Area!
Such a beautiful little breakfast spot!! They also serve lunch, but it’s our all day breakfast place! The food is great and the service is great! Everything is just right! Right in the Eastlake woodlands plaza so you can pull up in your golf cart from the neighborhood! Don’t mind the mustard in the picture hahaha
We have been coming here for years and we have a great experience with every visit. The food is fresh and delicious. You can tell they take the time to use quality ingredients like fresh lettuce, tomatoes etc. There is such a great variety as well as gluten free options. This is truly a hidden gem in East Lake.
A few days ago, my cousin and I had breakfast at a local restaurant, East Lake Café' in Palm Harbor. A cozy cafe with seating inside or on the patio. We arrived late morning and we were seated inside right away. And a few minutes later, a crowd poured in! I ordered a Breakfast Skillet over home fries and Sandrea ordered the Greek omelet. The food was absolutely delicious! Our server, Dea, provided excellent service, very attentive! Highly recommend!
