Big Apple Cafe

10/10! Best breakfast in Newark and extremely affordable. Will be back when I'm in town! Great service, homey ambiance, and delicious food.

Great little restaurant with good food. This is where all the locals go. Friendly staff.

This was a really nice surprise...There is limited seating and it is noisy but it is awesome. The service and the staff is spot on. The food was fantastic. I had the eggs Benedict crab cakes which was awesome. Seams like a weird combination but it is worth trying. Wifie had a salad with this raspberry vinaigrette dressing which was really good. This place will surprise you... Definitely worth a try...

Solid breakfast spot. So happy we stopped in. Got up this morning excited to go to Early Birds with my parents only to discover they were closed (with no explanation), so we Google searched an alternative nearby and found this place. We were all pleasantly surprised by our breakfasts - bacon crispy! Breakfast potatoes hot and crispy. Pancakes and French toast fluffy. Breakfast burrito was the perfect size. Want to make special mention of the biscuits and gravy because we travel all over the country and try biscuits and gravy even though 9 times out of 10, it's a giant fail. Most restaurants serve a thick pasty, gloopy mess with little to no sausage or flavor on an underdone biscuit. NOT HERE! As soon as it hit the table, I knew we were going to like it. You could SEE the sausage. The gravy was not too thick; the sausage was spicy and the biscuits were light and fluffy. Always a little room for improvement, so here are two areas where they could step up their game: 1. Coffee. It's weak and seems low quality. I love when a breakfast place makes coffee a priority - like good enough you'd come in for a cup of coffee alone. Maybe find a local roaster doing it right and collaborate with them. 2. Syrup. So first off, I'm a New Englander who despises fake syrup, so I'm a little biased already. Offering the real stuff even with an up charge is always appreciated. You have some local maple farms in Ohio! Aside from that, if you're going to use the fake stuff it should at least have some artificial maple flavor. This was just weird - syrupy but not maple and not even really that sweet. Not sure what I was eating. All in all though, it was a great breakfast, and I expect I'll be back soon - but I'll drink my coffee on the way there, and I'll be the one with a jug of maple syrup on the table. See you there!

The staff was so nice!! Great menu! My dad loves their breakfast meals!! My sister and I had crab cakes on a salad!! Crab cakes had great flavor! My drink was never empty! Definitely coming back in from Columbus!!!

This is a cute little diner in Newark. We found it from Yelp. The pictures and reviews all looked good. It is located in a strip mall and a tiny space. The service was excellent, the food simple and delicious. We got breakfast. The potatoes were real and not frozen. The omelets were tasty. A lot of the dishes on the menu sounded delicious it was hard to decide. Simple food and good service makes this a go to breakfast spot in town.

Good place for a great breakfast. The service is fast and friendly. Glad to have these two local options as there aren't many breakfast spots in the area. Love the NYC decor too! Breakfast sandwich is my go to choice.

Great food and service. This is a repeat favorite for breakfast! Although really busy, they make you feel like you're important.

Pleasantly surprised! Service is fantastic. I had the best pancakes ever. Great flavor, crispy edges. A few in my group got breakfast sandwiches and loved them. Decor is cute and the bathrooms are super clean. This is our new Black Friday tradition!

The food and service were wonderful! For the size of restaurant, we were impressed at the number of staff members working to ensure that patrons were taken care of in a very efficient manner. We will be back when we travel to that area again.
