1. Bissell Breakfast
The traditional breakfast platter includes 2 eggs any style, a breakfast meat of your choosing, toast, hashbrowns or grits, and a short stack of pancakes. With so many ways to customize, it’s no wonder the order is among the most popular – no matter the time of day!
Fun Fact: The Bissell Breakfast was named after a regular from the original location on Hendricks Ave in Jacksonville.
2. Bacon Avocado Scramble Bowl
Avocado, bacon, scrambled eggs, and roasted grape tomatoes, served over hashbrowns and drizzled with Hollandaise sauce (pictured). One of three Scramble Bowls offered all day at Metro Diner.
“Food was great! I had the avocado scramble with the hollandaise on the side (which was a great idea if you’re not a die hard hollandaise fan). You get the real diner feel when you are in there. Server was busy but still nice and attentive. Unlimited coffee refills is a nice touch.”
– Michelle C., ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
3. Western Omelet
A Metro Diner guest-favorite omelet that goes back to the pioneer days! Ingredients include ham, cheddar cheese, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes and peppers, topped with salsa. It’s served with toast and hashbrowns or grits on the side. Available all day.
4. Chicken & Waffle
This 5-star Google review says it all:
“I got the chicken and waffles! Holy chicken! This was possibly the best tasting chicken I have ever had. The skin was crispy and seasoned perfectly. The chicken inside was piping hot yet juicy and flavorful. The portion…..I could not even begin to eat it all and needed an extra plate! The waffle was good….could have been a touch crispier but I did like it with the strawberry butter and spicy syrup. Sophia was my server and she was attentive and super nice! Quick with anything I needed and offered a Togo drink. Super full and happily impressed with my meal!”
– Cinda L. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
