Might I suggest the Broadway on Water Street(potato pancakes or chili cheese omelette) or Alteas on Park Ave (corned beef hash with poached eggs or the croque Monsiuer.) Diner food is ok in city but their are better choices....

Just look for the Pink Floyd sweatshirt and sleeve tattoo- you'll find me.

Hunh, maybe I'll check one of those out.

Diner or not, where would you suggest for a cheap simple breakfast?

Context: I'm actually coming from Shrewsbury and then spending my day working at the Starbucks on Rt. 9.

Annie's Clark Brunch on Main Street - as a former Clarkie this is great food and really reasonable.

Screw Starbucks- check out Acoustic Java or Ikrave Cafe or Espress Yourself for a more mellow workspace.

I went to the Broadway this morning, didn't see you there :-( .

Seemed like a nice place, but I made the mistake of getting the chicken n' waffles. Those were no chicken n waffles like they make in Harlem....

It was a last-minute change of mind as the waitress was taking my order because I saw it listed under specialties. Honestly, I should have known better. I would definitely go back there...
