Taylor’s Cafe

Went here for brunch last Sunday. No wait time and the food was really good. My only complaints would be inconsistencies in the menu, they tend to makeshift the original order to what they have. Also, no alcoholic drinks. Not the place to go if you want a Bloody Mary with your brunch! I was disappointed.

First time here for brunch & got the Po Boy with fries & it was really good. My boyfriend got the London Broil & the sauces on each were awesome. The décor is cool, & the service is what made the fifth star for my review. Our server was a super kind Brazilian guy who really was above & beyond!

I journey a great deal and i also am lucky to get appreciated consuming at several excellent dining places. Taylor’s Coffee shop is just one of my personal favorite dining places. Suggest: window of Sonoma red-​colored, the brief-​rib appetizer w/​shushito peppers to begin, Cesar greens with lemons accompanied by the Filet method-​uncommon, completing having a great wasteland. Excellent services, Excellent meals, excellent atmosphere, general a earn within my publications. I’ll most likely return quickly.

Wow, what a fantastic find. This was the first time my husband and I visited this place and we will definitely be back. It’s modern, trendy, clean, and the service is fantastic. Not to mention they offer a lot of items on their menu and our breakfast was delicious. Yamalia was our server and she was so sweet! Very attentive, and very service oriented. She checked on us often, always got what we needed promptly, and she even offered us a take-​home container for our coffee WHICH she topped off before we left. 5 stars. Definitely come check this place out. I feel like any place that moves you to write a review is worth visiting, especially with how apathetic people can be nowadays.

My family and I love going to breakfast on the weekends. We tried this place a few times but after the last visit I will not be returning. I ordered the morning burger but when I received it the egg was not on it. I was told that the egg was extra and I would have to pay for it. I was confused because I had ordered it before and it was never a problem. The waiter took it to have the egg put on it. When I got it back the burger and egg were so overdone but was afraid to send it back.
I can deal with a mistake but when everyone at the table received the wrong food I was kinda shocked. My dad ordered Huevos rancheros there was no salsa. We just asked for a cup of salsa and got hot sauce. We spoke to someone else and they looked at us like we had no idea what salsa was. If you don’t understand what salsa is they you should not work in a restaurant. Would not recommend and would never go back.

Very friendly place to meet your friends and enjoy nice breakfast, brunch or lunch. Even friendlier staff and owner.

It’s a nice local dinner, the food is good, service is good, what more can you say, try it out.

This place has pretty good brunch food, the only reason why I gave it 3 starts because part of my order was wrong when I got take out here. For brunch my friend and I decided to go with the omelet and the breakfast salad with a side of fruit. The omelet came with a side of hash brown with the option of having onions and peppers. The omelet dish was pretty good. Unfortunately the breakfast salad was missing the avocados! I really liked salad still without the avocados but one of the main reasons I ordered the salad was for the avocados. It’s always a pet peeve of mine when take out orders are wrong. It’s like they don’t care as much about your food compared to customers who opt to dine in. Hopefully next time my order will be correct. I also got their orange juice which was really good, it’s freshly made from real oranges. I was also impressed by the large screen tv they had at the counter. It was about 50inches and you could watch the football game or w/​e show pretty clearly on it.
I will probably come back to this place again!

great diner food! Best breakfast place in the area

Overall good was very tasty! I had the salmon scrambled eggs, very good! FYI it’s BYOB

What a great place ! Beautiful. Clean. And owner walks around and is very sweet. I had the banana boat which of course was amazingness! My boyfriend had the grand slam, which you can’t go wrong with. Great prices… surprised they aren’t more expensive but I’m not complaining!
Sat in outdoor seating, very nice ! Except the little fly who hung around our food. But I definitely will be back to try more.

I came here for breakfast with a friend on a weekday and it was, if anything, decent. The interior is a little bizarre: very clean with half of its dining space modernized. What sort of killed it for me was the electronic «news» ticker/​advertiser I was facing during breakfast. As for the food, I’m not one to order something heavy like biscuits, sausage, and gravy or bananas foster pancakes for a weekday breakfast (maybe for brunch on a weekend in lieu of two meals) so I kept it pretty classic– egg and cheese sandwich on toast. The bread was borderline burnt, the eggs were medium (when I asked for easy/​dippy) and there were two thick slices of what looked to be Kraft cheddar singles. The side of breakfast potatoes looked and tasted like the frozen oreida brand kind. Nothing impressive and not worth the 7 or so dollars I paid.
The OJ was fresh squeezed and delicious so that was a plus. Also, our waiter was extremely kind and friendly. Unfortunately, the food just really fell short for me. Ordering an egg and cheese sandwich is usually my «safe» order too… Maybe basic breakfast foods just aren’t their thing? Either way, I don’t plan on coming back here.

I went here once and already love this place! I had a late lunch with my friend on a weekday so it was a little quiet, which I liked. First, I was impressed with their clean and modern interior. Next, the foods and their coffees were really good. I ordered a BLT sandwich and my friend ordered french toast and they were both really delicious. The servers were very friendly and nice too. The price is reasonable compared to the quality of their foods. I will definitely recommend this place to all of my friends and I can’t wait to have a nice brunch at their lovely patio.

Taylor’s is a small neighborhood gem that my wife and I have come to be regulars for our weekend breakfasts out. Their breakfast menu has the traditional items we all know and plus some unique dishes that are quite good. In addition to breakfast the also offer an excellent lunch and late lunch menus.
Some things to note, Taylor’s is only open for Breakfast and Lunch, so they close around 4pm most days. On weekends they do not accept any promotional offers including Unilocal Check-​In offers.
The service is quite good, but at times inconsistent depending on who the server is. I would say 90% of the time we have had excellent service.
The atmosphere is great, we love the décor, the seats are unique and match the overall décor. They also have outside dining in the back when the weather is good.
If you are in the area, this is one gem you should definitely give a try.

Pretty good brunch spot in Roxborough!
I ordered their breakfast burrito, which comes with a generous amount of food for the price. Their burritos have eggs, avocado, your choice of meat and cheese, salsa, and a side of homefries. I didn’t think the burrito was anything spectacular, but it was satisfying enough for a Sunday brunch.

I came here for lunch and ordered breakfast. The restaurant is nicely lit with a cool décor. The staff is friendly, the food is good, and the prices are reasonable. I recommend this restaurant to others.

Roxborough has a dearth of good breakfast spots — unfortunately this used to be a decent place, if awfully dirty, to get a reliable, inexpensive breakfast quickly that felt the need to COMPLETELY change. The old Taylor’s was a nicotine-​stained glimpse of the way things «used to be», while the new Taylor’s is modern, uncomfortable, bright, and completely lacking soul or character. Perhaps the dust bunnies added flavor, the greasy everything charm, and the dingy vibe homeyness, but what exists today is a über-​modern cafeteria vibe reminiscent of an Ikea in a wealthy suburb.
And that’s not a good thing.
And the food… I am sure the same people are cooking it, but something happened on the way to clean and shiny. Inconsistent is the best way to describe things — one day it’s actually good, the next cold, soggy, and remedied by a trip to the microwave. (Hot fruit anyone?) I have made a handful of trips here, always hoping they improve (they are really close to home)…and it never happens. There is only one real highlight of the menu — but it’s a killer and earns the 2^nd star — the Waffled Biscuit. Take a waffle iron cooked biscuit, then cover it with creamed chip beef… all for $ 4. Double the order and hangover CURED! Prices for food are more Main Street than Roxborough, but they did keep some lower-​priced options.
Coffee…somehow they new mugs instantly cool your coffee to the point of meh. It’s decent coffee too — on the rare occasion it is hot enough it’s pretty good — and the waitress never seems to be able to keep up with refills. Caffeine junkies are warned. Taylor’s is a BYOB — but really, who is going to drink here? Service is spotty at best. The new furniture is weird… way too modern to be really all that comfortable.
I keep hoping Taylor’s improves — the people working are genuinely friendly, seem to try really hard… but I have my doubts. Reduced hours recently indicate things aren’t going so well. But I hope…

So Taylor’s café is an a ok breakfast spot in the heart of roxborough ridge ave.
From my experiences and with the help of friends we have discovered that breakfast is the only thing you have to try here…
In honesty I can only recommend the red white and blue French toast. It is plentiful, beautiful and scrumptious.
I tried the breakfast «pizza» which was actually a frittata that was dry, over cooked, and bland.
Friends also commented that their rueben was sub par, and my friends ham sandwich might have had yet a single piece of ham on it.
Finally on every occasion we have gone there the service is bitterly slow, and servers tend to not know the menu that well.
The design inside is beautiful… And if Taylor’s would pick up the service and food preparation quality they would well be worth another star or two.

This place is the bomb!!! One of the better omelettes I’ve ever had, all other dishes were on par, actual fresh squeezed orange juice, really great atmosphere, adorably awesome server, priced well, fresh, individual bathrooms (with air spray ;-), clean, open, nice outdoor area in the back. I wish this was in my neighborhood!!!

Oh Taylors, I feel pained to write this but am doing so in hopes that it is taken constructively so that improvements can be made. I have been in the industry for 8 years. We have been patrons for years and thus have seen transformations firsthand in this establishment.
The renovations and first experiences thereafter seemed promising. The menu seemed creative, the ambiance improved, and understandably a price increase was seen as well.
Months later, it’s great to see that weekends bring customers but the wait staff and kitchen needs to be able to keep up with the rush if everyone wishes to remain employed. Overall, the wait staff seemed overwhelmed and even unknowledgable. Each time we come, the portions have gotten incredibly smaller to the degree that its comical. But really, its not. Not to mention, the past 2 times the food has arrived cold. So: cold food with exponentially smaller portions & slow service coupled with higher prices meet requirements to drive customers away.
I would like to note that some of the staff did impress me. The gentleman with the thick-​framed black glasses should be paid to be manager. He got drinks for his table together very quickly and had time to help other staff members AND ran to the basement to get more oranges. He is the reason why I haven’t totally lost hope in your establishment and the reason this review has 2 stars and not 1. I saw a few other emabarassing occurences but will not go into detail. The staff needs to be educated on the operating system communicating to the kitchen and needs to be more conscious of allergy concerns ie. LATEX usage & food handling.
Taylor’s lacks proactive managers both in back and front of house. If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen.
