Peach Valley Cafe in Dr Phillips does a fast breakfast

Have you ever tried going to breakfast or brunch on the weekend around Sand Lake Rd and Dr. Phillips? I didn’trealize this was such a happening time for diners. Most breakfast places have very long wait times. I’m talking 45minutes to an hour. Really? Driving around I almost blacked out with hunger. Until I pulled up to Peach Valley Cafe inDr. Phillips. Not that there wasn’t a wait time here. It was 35 minutes. But there was immediate seating available atthe bar. Why don’t people ever sit at the bar? I was in and out with a full belly in under 45 minutes and that was mepacing my food intake so as not to choke on air I was building up driving around.

Peach Valley Cafe is behind Stonewood Grill and Tavernat the intersection of Dr Phillips Blvd and Conroy Rd. It is noteasily visible from the street, so you’ll have to enter the plaza.The interior is modest with booths, tables and that long bar. Agreeter seats you or tells you how long is the wait. Or you canjust saddle up to bar and sit immediately, pending an openseat of course. The sweet thing is you get served right awaywhile everyone else waits. I might exercise this technique atall the other restaurants I go to who tell me there is a waittime. Yea, yea, I know there has to be a wait time. Thekitchen and front staff needs to catch up, yadi, yadi, ya. Now Iknow the trick to get around that and I’m sharing it with you.

Breakfast items are somewhat similar in most American stylerestaurants. There is the occasional difference of healthy,choices of egg whites, omelette fillings, croissants, juices,coffee, teas, pancakes and waffles. An item that I should have ordered atPeach Valley Cafe was one of their Egg Croissant Benedict. Those lookvery delicious. So, I have something to look forward to next time. This timeour choices were straight forward.

Peach Iced Tea – I’ll admit I was pleasantly tickled that it actually smelledand tasted like peach. You know those so called flavored Ice Teas thatyou can’t tell the difference from a mango or peach? Well, this was verybold. Good going.

Mahi Sandwich – Sort of small, but it was brunch and the sandwich wasfilling. This is a summer special item. Of course, the side of potato helped.But really, it was a good piece of fish on a soft kaiser roll. Not bad at all.

Healthy Start Omelette – Egg whites, turkey, baby spinach andtomatoes. Nice and fluffy. Fresh flavors. Order of pancake was fluffy andtender.

This is a great place for good old hearty food without the frills but still verydecent. Service was prompt and attentive. Having a front row seat at thebar right infront of the kitchen, I can report no one picked their noses and everyone was wearing gloves. Very efficientmovements on that line. Definitely a place I’m going back to.
