Himes Breakfast House

This is a small gem outside a residential neighborhood. Parking is a limited, however, the hostess Gabriel came out and helped with parking when he saw us circling the lot. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. Gabriel made sure everyone in the building feel like a mvp. Our server Rebecca was sweet and accommodating. The pricing was great. Food came quickly and it was really good. Hats off to the chef! When I am in town, I will return to this wonderful breakfast spot!!

Sooooo good! When you see a breakfast potato that looks this good, you know it’s gonna taste great. We got the lumberjack bowl, the bananas foster waffle, and the bougie Benedict. The table was quiet as everyone enjoyed their meal. There was no conversation, other than comments of how delicious things tasted, until everything was done. Highly recommend

This spot has been open since 2022. I was quite eager to visit after I read the reviews, but when I learned the chef from Cafe Dufrain (one of my favorite lunchtime business places back in the day) helped the owners focus on their signature food theme, I was all in. The restaurant bought the place from the owners of Potbelly’s, a BBQ joint and diner. The new owners carried over some of that profile with thick bacon and potbelly in some dishes. THE FOOD: When I saw they had a catfish, eggs and grits plate, I had to order it. With extra cheese in the eggs and grits. Scrambled eggs were fluffy and the grits, creamy. The nicely seasoned fried catfish fillet was the right southern complement to a traditional breakfast dish. My wife had the plain pancakes and thick cooked bacon. She said the coffee-infused maple syrup (thanks chef!) made the dish. Coffee was quality for a diner style eatery. SERVICE: I’ve never seen a more efficient front-of-house table clearing operation as the one Himes has developed. Because of that, we only waited 10 minutes even though the place was packed at 9 am on a December Saturday. ATMOSPHERE: Pleasant and clean with personality of its own. It’s a noisy place with lots of young families and couples, so don’t expect to have intimate conversations here. Parking is minimal when busy, but if you’re creative enough you’ll find a spot. I would definitely go back, perhaps for lunch when the shrimp and grits is on the menu. Nice blend of country diner with some unanticipated surprises and large portions. I definitely would take out-of-town company here.

First I'll say this, I have never seen such a focused team of employees working hand in hand with each other. Efficient prompt actions by each of the people that work there made it one of the most enjoyable meals I have had over the last month. It is loud as expected because of the size. There is always a line which tells you something about the business. It's not due to the team screwing around talking in the kitchen. One of the best breakfast. Eats I've had in a while. Lumberjack Bowl. Not for the faint of heart because I can eat! I took half of it home too. Sensational full pot of coffee and a massive 16 oz cup! Highly recommend trying this place out.

Went to the Brandon location with my granddaughter on a whim and so glad we did. Service was wonderful. Host greeted and sat us right away. They were busy but staff was quickly clearing tables. Servers were friendly and attentive and food was delicious. Loved that they left the coffee carafe on the table. Restaurant was super clean too. Going back with my husband tomorrow.

Service and atmosphere was great! My husband and I came here for breakfast on a Sunday at 8:30 am and were seated right away. Gets pretty busy after 9am. We ordered the country fried steak, French toast, and the breakfast bowl. Everything was delicious! the coffee was very good too. I think we found our new favorite breakfast spot!

We are visiting from Saint Cloud & had an excellent experience. Food was delicious & Carla was an amazing server! Very friendly, attentive & knowledgeable about local attractions {& of course the menu }. Thanks again from Gracey, Angel, & Ethan. God Bless

Took my husband and two children to breakfast. This was such an enjoyable experience there was a treasure box and sticker activity pages for the kids. The staff was the best service I had in town and the food was generous portions and quality ingredients. Best gravy and bacon in town. The red potato home fries were a hit! Can’t wait to try more. We will surely be back! Great value for your dollar! Thank you for the positive experience. I do wish the coffee Togo cups were a little better quality but all and all a great experience for me and my family.
