We come here all the time and the servers are always so sweet! Today Cheryl was our server and she was a rockstar, totally killed it, serving 8 tables and 4 people at the bar by herself!! Our only gripe about Green Owl Diner is that there’s always a young kid here that it seems like he’s supposed to be helping but he stands around and only helps when it’s glaringly obvious he needs to. I hope the servers don’t have to share the tips with him because I’m assuming he’s the owners son or something but he could be WAY more helpful. For the record - we own two restaurants, so we’re not Karen’s at all. Just something that all of the guests notice and probably not too many people say anything. To the owners - have this young man be more proactive! The guests and staff will all be appreciative.
The young lady working here is a SUPERSTARThe place overall deserves like 3.5-4 stars; it’s a good, no-frills, local, diner with the standard options. Full, good people, mostly patient. But the server is running the whole show. As I write this she has 10 tables and 5 of us at the bar, and has to answer the phones, cash out the orders, handle the Uber Eats tablet, prep her own toast, make her drinks for her tables, it’s nuts. I grew up in this business, and continue to be in the business to this day, and she’s a rockstar. To the owners - she needs back up. Help her out, and whatever you pay her, give her a raise, she deserves it.
Small little breakfast diner but the food and service were great. Food also arrived quickly. Would recommend to others.
Would NOT recommend this place. My family and I used to go here for breakfast. Usually when we had an issue with the food, it would be corrected immediately. Recently this past weekend we found a maggot on the toast. The lady serving just apologized and brought another toast. We didnt even get a discount or heard anything from management. We were very disappointed at how this matter was handled. DO NOT go to this place unless you want to be disappointed.
Great little local breakfast place. Good food, decent prices friendly staff
If I could give less than 1 star in this review, I certainly would. We went there this morning for breakfast and 2 of my guests received sausage gravy and biscuits SERVED COLD. They each ordered extra cheese which is offered on the menu for 50 cents per slice. To my surprise, when we received the bill, they charged $1.00 per slice of extra cheese. I mentioned it to our waitress and she rudely responded by saying its been a dollar since I have worked here and walked away. She did not remove it from our bill. Needless to say, I will not be dining there again. Good luck staying in business while treating your patrons in such a way!
First time there, Food was ok the only thing that bothered me was there was a young kid laying in the corner booth with a blanket like he was someones kid they brought to work. Then noticed he got up cleaned a table while holding crackers in his left hand wiped table with right hand as he pushed the food on the chairs then floor. I did tell him about the food he brushed on the chairs. As of now he is in the booth laying again playing with the salt, pepper & jelly container.
Wonderful food! Great Waitress ! Will go back on our next visit!
Been here 3 times, twice Ive been charged more than the menu prices for items ordered. Both times Ive ask the server about it only to be told they didnt make the menu or set the prices. Today not only did they overcharge me, my food was ice cold. For me this is definitely 3 strikes, I wont be back. Avoid this place unless you enjoy horrible customer service, being overcharged and cold food.
The Green Owl is long standingGreat local friendly place to eat and 2 fellowship with the people there eating.The staff R the best and the Chef is doing a great job and is committed to making your visit a successful meal.U never seen so many Owls in your life.This is myNew place 2 enjoy my family and the bestPlace 2 enjoy all Fresh food Robert
The cook/owner has not worn a face mask correctly on her face since the Covid19 outbreak. If you go there any day, other than Kathy serving, plan for cold food, dirty tables and poor service. I used to be an everyday patron so I speak from experience.
Reasonably priced comfort food that tastes good in a clean environment!
Great food great prices nice owner kathy great sever and the rest never had bad meal been going here for every.
Clean helpful pleasant place to have dinner or anything to eat
Very well run family owned & operated ...............good for breakfast & lunch, good carryout ready made salads & cold cuts
Great food... reasonably priced... great service... a good local spot for breakfast & lunch... give them a try!
Went here for lunch. The food was good but they are not following Covid-19 restrictions. They allowed customers to come in with no masks. People walking into and out of the kitchen not wearing masks. One older woman (owners mom?) went into the kitchen not wearing a mask. Went into the bathroom not wearing a mask. Walked through the dining area not wearing a mask. Very disappointed
Very good food like home made
Not impressed dirty inside and food was made with no love.
Great staff services and food. 5 STARS.
The food is really good makes you feel like you’re at home. The people are always very friendly.
Food was very nice 👌 service was great 👍
Staff is friendly. Place is immaculate. Food is good and imaginative. Price, I felt, was fair. I enjoyed a split fresh biscuit with two sausage patties, homemade breakfast gravy topped with two eggs made to order with hash browns. $11.75. Ill be going again
This is my wifes favorite Breakfast place. It is a cozy spot with some delicious food at a good place. The atmosphere reminds us of a Midwest dinner which is a nice touch.
Cozy little place for breakfast or brunch. The army of decorative owls was a cute touch! I had the country Benedict and the sausage gravy was great!
Good food. Great service.
Best meal we’ve ever had. Truly top notch establishment, service was warm and friendly and the atmosphere was inviting. Will come back as often as we can
Mixed up our order with wrong food and did not fix. Over charged more than prices in menu and refused to correct. Bad service, good food... but all in all the poor service was enough to make me never want to return.
Great service. Clean cozy atmosphere. Breakfast was wonderful. Just what we were looking for!!! Home cooked meal!!
Best dinner in boynton Beach
My fiance and I go here very often. Amazing food. Amazing! Very fast service even when theyre busy. Decent prices. Amazing and friendly staff.
Hot cakes are really good. This is the kind of place that is known for its home cooking. Just a great breakfast place or get your coffee before work. If it is out of your way, its really worth the trip.
The ownership recently changed and the new owners have yet to learn that we go there for the friendly, neighborhood atmosphere, and certainly not because its the best food in town. The Waitresses carried over from the previous owner understand this and are always friendly. Not the new owner however. The new owners need to be a lot more friendly before I spend my money there on a regular basis, as I did before. Hopefully, theyll make an effort to fit into the local community.
My husband and I used to love this place; we would go every weekend for breakfast together. Since the new owners took over, we have only been there twice, and will not go again. The new owners are not friendly and the food is not as good as before. The only good part about this place is the very few waitresses that came from the old management. Find some where else to eat!
Heard some great things about this place so we decided to give it a try, and we were definitely pleased. A real no nonsense place with great food. This place is clean and service is great and the food is amazing and the prices are great too I go just about every weekend - order it up from almost anything on the menu. Great spot for breakfast. Youll love it for sure
We have been here a couple times. I love eating here when we are in town. Its cute, quaint and absolutely delicious!
My favorite place for breakfast. The staff is friendly and the food comes out quickly. I am picky, because I am in the service industry as well, but these ladies are amazing and the food is excellent.
Good, not great. Cheap and quick service
Great breakfast spot. Filled with owls. If those two things fill you with happiness like they do me, then this will be fun. Only reason they didnt get 5 stars was a bit of a seating mess up, but nothing more than a minor inconvenience, less than 5 minutes. Looking forward to having another go-around. Hubby loved the Eggs Benedict. Pancakes are large and filling.
Always great food and great service
Great service, waitress was very good. Food was served within 15 minutes.
Love the hometown atmosphere, super service & made to order food, NOT FROZEN MICROWAVED like all the chain resturants! Best waitress LINDA personal service, charming & always with a smile!
I wish i could give ratings in different categories.This was a favorite Sunday morning spot for my wife and me. With new ownership came a couple new employees, one if which is a younger woman with a serious attitude problem. Since shes the one who seats you and takes your drink order, it can seriously sour your whole experience if you are unfortunate enough to interact with her.Instead of answering a very simple question, she cut off my wife mid sentence, demanding her drink order. We had literally just sat down.If not for our very kind waitress, I would have happily walked out and over come back because of that young womans rudeness.In a place that is praised for its friendly neighborhood feel, this sort of stuck up attitude is extremely out of place.The food and other wait staff is phenomenal, but watch out for the attitude problem in skinny jeans.
One of my favorite places to grab some food. good location, clean, and very good customer service. A must try!
Wow this place has great food. We stopped in Boynton to visit one of our grown offspring and took him here for breakfast. Highly recommended!
Awesome place!
Great Food. Staff works sooo hard for customers!!
Like the small diner feel to it. Prices are reasonable but portions are smaller compared to other diners. Turkey club always done right so I cant complain.
Stopped in for a quick bite. I think the prices for diner type food were a bit high. 2 lunches cost 28 dollars plus tip.
Probably the best BEC Ive had outside of NYC
Came here for Breakfast, I must say it was the best Breakfast I have had in a long time.I got The Feast and I have not one complaint about it.Friendly service, Great cook and Matt the Owner or Manager? Came over to the Table to say Hi.If your local I will suggest to stop and try this place.
Great small little hole in the wall to get a cheap place to have a quick bite to eat. Staff friendly and food fresh. Nothing on this menu is over ten dollars. Definately worth a try!
Do not waste your time or money.Eggs Benedict were extremely overdone (cooked through) and bacon was soft, floppy and barely cooked. When I asked the waitress, Alisa, if she could take the bacon back and crisp it up a little, she rolled her eyes. She seems miserable and incredibly incompetent. Come to find out she’s related to the owner and inherited the position! I will never go back there and I will make sure to spread the word to my colleagues and friends.
Amazing food and amazing service!
Great little hole in the wall. They have amazing breakfast with Real eggs! Be sure to get here early because it gets PACKED and kitchen gets backed up. Also bring cash, its a CASH ONLY place. Give it a try you wont be disappointed.
Great food. Nice atmosphere. But prices are getting up there
I havent been there in a while, but the food is just as good as I remember. My mother had the Pattynelt with potato salad, which she enjoyed. I had the big breakfast which included (2) slices of bacon, (1) sausage patty, eggs, choice of carbohydrate and (2) pancakes.I had them put blueberries in the pancakes, which I took home.
Great informal neighborhood breakfast place slong the lines of old-style Florida. Good for catching up with friends or I formal business meeting with good coffee and food along with a friendly staff. Highly recommended
Great little place for breakfast and lunch. Their eggs are farm fresh with the richest golden yokes. If you like biscuits and gravy, this place is fir you. Many different dishes featuring their biacuiya and gravy. Service is fantastic
Great food!! wonderful people !!good prices!! Beautiful Decor! Super Service!!
Well now, i must say that the food was very tasty,served by very nice staff,found no faults.
Great customer service 👏.
The wife is a regular, I go once I a while. The selection, the service, the quality and price, you cant beat it. You get there hungry, youll leave full and your wallet wont suffer.
Little restaurant with local flair. Staffed by longtime employees...always good service, however, limited menu... limited but well prepared. Ideal quick breakfast location with comfortable setting.
Fantastic food, wonderful waitresses and staff. Food is amazing and I cant wait to try everything on the menu. Great coffee and they always keep it full.
The Green Owl in Boynton Beach has become our Monday Morning Go To place for breakfast. Food is consistently excellent and the staff is very fine. Great place to go if you are in a hurry, as well a when you just want to hang out for a leisurely meal. Known to have some down home things on the menu that you just dont find elsewhere, and open to creating things to order on the spot.
Food was good but waitress was not that good they kept forgetting what we asked extra for
This is just a shame. They absolutely have no care for customer service or care for their food. Never again...
I love the restaurant, the coffee is the best.
Good food .. wish they were open more hours. Was better with previous owner but still quite good
Fast friendly service with a smile and the food is always delicious!
Food is good and service is very good. Its just a little bit of home all warm and fuzzy. Everyone on the staff makes you feel welcomed.
The other reviews lead me to dinning here. However its nothing unique or special. Its just a basic breakfast place, but they do have fresh veggies. I attempted to order the veggie scramble but I requested fried eggs, the cook & waitress would not make the adjustment. As someone who has been in the industry I cant understand why this was an issue, unless the eggs and veggies are pre mixed. Anyway, nothing special I would not recommend this place. The home fries and the hashbrowns were both bland. The bacon was delicious, but the sausage was oddly bland with a rubber texture. The waffle however was the best part of breakfast.
The Food and Service is Great Everytime!
Food was good, service was awesome... will definitely be back!
Kat the waiter was rude and smelled like marlboros
Good food and friendly service
Great local diner with great food and ambiance that you expect from non-corporate locally owned business. Friendly waitresses always have fresh coffee and a smile waiting for you.
Good food. Cool owl collection.
Wonderful
Its a great place to eat food is very good service is good and friendly try it youll like it 😉😊
Not that good. Cold and stale food but the service was friendly.
Friendly service and good food. The pancakes are the best! They actually taste like cake!
The food is home made and the portions are huge. Cozy and nostalgic, breakfast served till 2pm and their open till 8pm.
Great service from nice people and not a fat waitress in the joint. Fresh food served to order. Dont miss the French toast!
I went on a Saturday so it was relatively busy but once I was seated, no one ever came to my table to greet me, let alone take my order. After about 13 mins, I went to the bar/countertop and asked one of the ladies if she could send someone to take my order because I haven’t been greeted since I’ve sat down. (Not to mention I was literally in one of the booths next to the service counter).After about another 5 mins a super friendly young lady took my order and the rest was uphill from there. I was disappointed in the quality of service and level of attention especially since it was my first time and every one raves about the place but the food was good so I have to give them that. I’d go again just to see if the service is better.
Small breakfast and lunch diner with awesome food and friendly service.
Good breakfast but i prefer to make my own breakfast and see brown owls
Always a pleasure to go there. Even if hectic they are in control. Service is goo. Food is excellent.
Egg-cellent food and service! Love the ambiance in this lil diner.
Very good quality, variety and pricefor breakfast and lunch. Friendly place.New ownership.
Great food, great service - good pricing (parking can be tough)
Good food, good prices, and quick service
A blast from the past. Great food and service.
We used to love this place but now that they changed owners alot has been changed with that too. The hugh grill blueberry muffin that was order from a bakery has been changed to some mini supermarket blueberries not to good. The natural orange juice was changed to concentrate juice gross! The corn beaf hash was smaller than usually. My favorite is the waffle with fruits, this time they barely gave me any fruit. The service was very slow because they only had two waiters taking care of the restaurant on a Sunday morning full with customers, they were great but theres just so much two people can do!It seems like this new owner is cutting on prices and messing around with the quality of food!!! Im a big believer that if its not broken dont fix it!!!! Special with food!!!! We wont be coming back here, we will be going to Sandes on Federal instead.
Very very good food great service little high price for breakfast throw in a Budweiser maybe we can make a deal
Since business was sold, food quality down and prices up. Wont be returning.
