Luz ZSApril 2, 2018An excellent place to have breakfast. Pancakes are enormous and very delicious, try them with fresh fruit. 😋👌🏻🥓🥞🍳
Carly LipkinOctober 3, 2011Great breakfast food & great deli sandwiches too! Had an incredible tuna melt there. Decently priced, worth every penny. Sometimes a wait, but usually not too bad because its worth the wait too.
Don WeilerSeptember 22, 2014Spinach Scramble and Power Breakfast with HUGE pancakes are staples. Granola rocks. Fresh, local ingredients. A must stop!Upvoted 1 week ago
VisitBtownJune 29, 2012Try the Pancake - The famous, gi-normous pancake from Village Deli. A B-town classic!Also available with fruit, chocolate chips and more!
Mike KwiatekMarch 29, 2014The Norwegian is amazing (lox English muffin topped with eggs hollandaise). Nananutella pancakes are a bit lacking in "nana"
Mike DDecember 13, 2014I go here every time I come to track meet and basketball and then go to Colts game in the big city - makes me weep sweet lemon drop tears
Renée HirshfieldMay 2, 2015Trust me and all others with this kind of comment: The portions here are gargantuan.
Kevin BeckMarch 21, 2013Wish I would have ordered breakfast instead of lunch. Pancakes at table next to me look fantastic. And HUGE! Lunch was good too. ;P
Skip the lunch menu and go straight for the breakfast. Everything you could want in a breakfast. Eggs, giant pancakes, slightly greasy and addictive hashbrowns. Hangover cure.- Good food. If you are a fan of the Spinach scramble, try it with American cheese...instant classic.
It's not on the menu, but you can Paxtonize any dish that has a side of potatoes for about $2.
Kayla JohnsonApril 27, 2015A Bloomington tradition, but really not worth the lines. Come here really early or a bit late during the weekends.
Pam FelixApril 8, 2012Paxton potatoes are good! Wait for food was 12 minutes with a packed house for Easter Sunday Brunch. Great job on service.
Katie LynnMarch 5, 2010My breakfast pick: HUGE pancakes. One chocolate chip pancake and coffee is perfect for me. My lunch pick: Dave's Veggie Burger Deluxe is great, cheese fries are killer.
Bradley GoodNovember 7, 2011Great for breakfast! The breakfast burrito is my favorite. Lunch options are kind of sad though...
Jordan BryantJanuary 2, 2014Food is delicious but I've been here dozens of times and the service is never prompt. Be prepared to wait forever
The new Eggs Benedict is delicious! And they give you plenty of hollandaise sauce.
Pavilion PropertiesApril 18, 2012The Village Deli is hands down the best place for breakfast in B-town!- In the summer, try and avoid tables where the air vents are under them. Your legs will freeze. If you get stuck there, a good hack is to take one of the menus and cover it.
Btown LocalAugust 11, 2010A B-town favorite, especially for breakfast. The pancakes are gigantic and the biscuits and gravy are a classic.
Barcelonena BÇNovember 5, 2013Probably it was the worst cajun chicken breast sandwich I had ever eaten. Tasted like mold or soil. Bıt definitely it tasted wrong. We ordered three other kinds of sands and the others liked them.
- This month's fave is the fajita pita with fresh fruit side!
Kelsey ArmstrongJanuary 7, 2012The biscuits and gravy were so delicious, but the service was not so great.
Best breakfast in Bloomington, served any time all day.
Wait until after the morning rush. It won't be so chaotic.
