" 5/5 - A Hidden Gem for Breakfast, Lunch, and (Today) Amazing Hamburgers! I stopped into this little breakfast-and-lunch spot today, and wow--what a find! The moment you walk in, you feel that cozy, welcoming vibe that only truly local places have. The staff is friendly, quick, and genuinely happy to see you, which already puts it a step above the usual grab-and-go cafes. But the real highlight today? The hamburgers Juicy, perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and stacked with fresh toppings. You can taste the care in every bite. It's the kind of burger that makes you pause mid-conversation and just appreciate what's happening. Our server Jennifer was terrific extremely professional kind and courteous service was on point and the owner Dave even stopped by to make sure everything was great.. This place is proof that small restaurants still do food with heart. Highly recommend! "

"There was a time, when I would avoid the Green Owl at all costs. A very good friend convinced me, to give them a chance and that their egg based breakfasts and service were the best that Delray Beach had to offer and at a great value too. He was right."

"The Green Owl delivers a delicious breakfast and at a fair price! Just note, it is cash only there. I wish we would have found it earlier in the week as we would have eaten there everyday this week. I had the veggie scram with home fries and it was perfect! My husband had the French toast with a side of eggs. He loved his too! Highly recommend this gem of a restaurant! Note, we did carry out as you can see from the photo."

"We received great customer service and it was a party of 6. The food was average. With that said if you are downtown it's an easy place to stop in and see friendly people."

"Always a pleasure to have our breakfast in this place! Awesome coffee, clean food and the friendliest wait staff around. Thank you so much!! Update 2025: What an awesome experience it was again! Stopped by one this beautiful spot, as we did many times but this time we sat inside. And, again, the freshest eggs, clean food, great coffee, but also LOVED the wall art. I can't wait to stop by next week, just so I can count the owls!!! Thank you so much to our waitress and the cooks, it is refreshing to enjoy a clean, tasty, and homemade breakfast."

"This is the diner cafe of my dreams. We were greeted by the friendliest and most welcoming staff and instantly felt like part of their family. The food was superb and very affordable. We got pancakes, bacon and an egg with coffee and juice. Such an amazing hidden gem. Could not recommend enough. Note they are cash only however, there is an ATM on site."

Lunch options are equally enticing. The burgers have received rave reviews. They are juicy, loaded with toppings, and cooked to perfection. Savor the ambiance while enjoying a bite. The quaint decor enhances the warm feel and invites guests to linger.

Check for busy times to avoid long waits. Peak hours typically hit sundays at 9 AM. For a quieter visit, early weekdays are ideal. Make sure to grab cash for payment. An ATM is available onsite, making it convenient for all guests.
