When Discover Wylie asked for recommendations on Facebook for the best places to grab breakfast, four restaurants stood out above the rest. These tried-and-true favorites have won the hearts (and appetites) of Wylie residents with their delicious menus and welcoming atmospheres. We’re sharing the best breakfast spots in Wylie per the Facebook conversation, but we’ve also included some new up-and-coming restaurants in town that are being noticed – be sure to check those out, too!
Ballard Street Cafe and Grill
If you’re looking for a classic, down-home breakfast experience, Ballard Street Cafe and Grill is the place to be. Located in historic downtown Wylie, this charming cafe has served Wylie residents for years. It serves up generous portions of Southern-style breakfast favorites like biscuits and gravy, crispy bacon, and perfectly cooked eggs. It’s a staple for locals who love a traditional breakfast done right.
Starwood Cafe
Located on the east side of town, Starwood Cafe is a newcomer with a loyal following known for its fresh, high-quality ingredients and extensive breakfast menu. Whether you’re in the mood for a hearty omelet, fluffy pancakes, or a classic eggs-and-bacon combo, Starwood Cafe delivers. Their friendly service and cozy atmosphere make it a go-to spot for breakfast lovers in Wylie. We recommend the Nutella beignets.
Country Club Cafe
Country Club Cafe is another beloved breakfast gem in Wylie. Known for its welcoming vibe and comforting dishes, this spot is perfect for those who crave classic American breakfast fare. Their homemade cinnamon roll pancakes (when in doubt, go with these!) and perfectly brewed coffee make it an excellent choice for a relaxing morning meal.
Frankie’s Mexican Casa
Frankie’s is a go-to destination for those who feel like a little Tex Mex to get the day going. This local favorite is known for its delicious and hearty breakfast plates. Whether you’re fueling up for the day or catching up with friends over coffee, Frankie’s never disappoints. Plus, you can get one of Frankie’s famous margaritas while you’re there! We recommend the breakfast enchiladas.
Newer Breakfast Spots Worth Trying
While the community favorites have been around for a while, Wylie is also home to some fantastic newer breakfast spots that deserve recognition.
Eddie’s Diner
A recent addition to the Wylie breakfast scene (but not entirely new – this restaurant has another location in Plano), Eddie’s Diner is already making waves with its classic diner-style breakfast options. From hearty breakfast platters to mouthwatering pancakes and fresh coffee, Eddie’s is quickly becoming a favorite among locals looking for a casual and delicious morning meal. Try this Eggs Benedict (Eddie’s Bennies) – they come in seven variations.
Ferah Smokehouse and Cantina
For a unique twist on breakfast, Ferah Smokehouse and Cantina offers a weekend brunch menu that stands out from the crowd. With a creative blend of smoked meats and traditional brunch favorites, Ferah brings something different to the table. Their flavorful dishes and stylish ambiance make it a great spot for those looking to try something new. Ferah Smokehouse and Cantina has a weekend brunch option (brisket eggs Benedict, anyone?) and a full bar, so you can top off your breakfast with a fresh Mimosa!
Hot Pancakes
True to its name, Hot Pancakes specializes in serving up some of the fluffiest and most delicious pancakes in town. This breakfast and lunch spot opened its doors in Wylie recently, and it’s quickly earning a reputation for its quality ingredients and satisfying menu.
