The Egg Bistro

Always love coming here, food is great, there are lots of gluten free options, the wait usually isnt too long, and Rebecca's service today was excellent!

We had a fantastic brunch experience at The Egg Bistro in Chesapeake (Kempsville) and can’t say enough great things about Aspen, our server. Our group of six included three young kids, and Aspen was absolutely outstanding—friendly, efficient, and incredibly patient. She made the entire table feel welcome and taken care of from start to finish. The food? Incredible across the board. The kids devoured the chocolate chip pancake topped with whipped cream and a juicy sausage—a clear favorite. The fruit parfaits and bowls with granola, chia seeds, and honey were fresh, colorful, and beautifully presented. Adults in the group enjoyed everything from the perfectly crisp hash browns and rich Eggs Benedict, to a vibrant avocado toast on gluten-free bread, topped with tomato, cucumber, and creamy cheese. The steak and eggs platter was hearty, flavorful, and also served with gluten-free toast, which was a big plus for our group. Aspen kept everything flowing smoothly and even made time to connect with the kids. Her upbeat attitude and attention to detail elevated the entire visit. It’s not easy to find a spot that nails the food and the service—especially with a mixed-age group and dietary needs—but this place delivered. We’ll definitely be back, and next time we’re requesting Aspen again!

The Egg Bistro is truly a gem—especially for anyone with food allergies! I was so impressed by how accommodating and flexible the staff was. They took my dietary restrictions seriously and made sure everything was safe without sacrificing flavor or quality. The fact that there’s a dedicated gluten-free section on the menu made ordering stress-free and enjoyable. I didn’t have to ask a million questions or feel limited in my options. The gluten-free toast was absolutely delicious—crispy, flavorful, and a perfect pairing for the rest of my meal. What made the experience even better was that my friends, who don’t have any allergies, were able to enjoy their meals just as much. Everyone left full and happy, and no one had to compromise on taste, food quality, or the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The Egg Bistro has definitely earned a top spot on my brunch list, and I’ll be back again soon!
