Red Eye Cafe - Montclair

Really surprised it took me this long to try this restaurant. Food was really good and service was excellent! I came here to catch up with a friend and felt like the server was attentive and he did not rush us at all!! Restaurant is super clean with a bookstore/coffee house aesthetic. Plus, they have a selection of breads and sweets you can grab on your way out. Must order dish buttermilk pancakes with walnuts and bananas. The pancakes were so fluffy and the toppings were really fresh the syrup was not too sweet. Omelettes were also amazing. I especially liked that they added a LOT of cheese!

This was my second time coming here and it was just as great as the first time. The first time I had the Avo burger with an egg which I remember being delicious and yesterday I had the breakfast burger and vanilla chai tea. The burgers were both very well seasoned and filling. Highly recommend their burgers! The chai tea was one of the best I've ever had and I've had my share of chai's! I believe the side of chips that the burgers come with are made in house, they have a unique flavor that I cannot describe but are soooo delicious and very crunchy. The employees were kind and there was a cozy vibe.. there is metered street parking!

Very enjoyable and quaint nook in the better part of Montclair. Food, service and all was up to par

A great local cafe!! I've been to the Red Eye Cafe a few times and it always continues to deliver great food! I went yesterday for an early lunch on a Friday and it was quite busy with a 10-15 minute wait for a table by the time I left. Many came for quick grab and go coffee along with some tables outside on a nice day. It's pretty small inside with only about 10 tables but it's a great cozy atmosphere. I got my favorite sandwich there, the turkey pear sandwich which comes with a small side salad. Despite being busy the service was timely and attentive! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Montclair is surely full of a bunch of great restaurants but I'll definitely keep going back to Red Eye Cafe!

Always great service when I come here. My waitress was super attentive. My breakfast, house omelette with a snack of peanut butter chocolate chip pancakes was delicious. This is cute lil spot, but its no longer has the card games
