beverly's la croisette

my husband i love this place! they give you coffee upon entry, and the croissants are warm and delicious.goodhearty meals with enough to share.

worst experience i've ever had in a restaurant. i am a local. i have been here a few times with a group of friends and had agoodexperience. i went today with the same group. we were there for a total of 1.25 hours and there were 8 of us. the group left with the exception oft self and another lady. we were finishing our conversation. during the 10inutes that we remained after the others left they cleared our table, wiped it down, then ersatz it for the next customers. they were extremely rude to us. i have never in my life seen anything like it. all was well until toes last 10 minutes when we were the there alone. it was unacceptable and i will never go back.

wanted to order a breakfast to go...walked in and a host pointed me to a corner without a word. there was a takeout box on a table with a bill on it, (assumed it was mine?) the owner/manager and several servers walked right by me. i finally motioned to the host and asked if someone would help me. the manager/owner walked up to me and stared at me. i said i was here to pick up a takeout. she said "okay" and continued to look at me. i said "is it ready?" and she said "we'll tell you when it's ready" very rudely. i pointed to the togo box and said "is that mine?" and she told me not to be rude. i said i was leaving and she said "don't come back!" uhhhh don't worry "beverly", i won't.

called back after i left and asked to talk to the manager. when she finally came to the phone and i said who i was she said "well this is beverly and i don't care what you have to say!" i've heardgoodthings about the food but would rather eat cardboard than eat at a place that treats customers this way.

breakfast dishes. grits. i prefer american cheese but there are other choices. then i add bacon to turn them into bacon cheese grits! yum! the orange marmalade on sour dough isgoodalso

breakfast dishes. cheese grits

probably my tenth visit to beverly's, still don't know the rest of the menu, the only thing i have ever had here is the chicken fried steak in sausage gravy. the only change between my first and the last one is the size of the portion, a victim to the economic decline.goodluck getting a seat in this most popular eatery during spring break or any other time.

this place is outstanding, ate the breakfast, had the country fried steak, it was so good, well made with a delectable sausage gravy.  one of the best breakfast i have had in a long time.  sadly the bacon are pre-fried, i would wait for freshly fried bacon. great service from a great staff. i can not wait to return.

mom & pop dining lives!!. it was 13:00 when we stopped for lunch and this was our first visit to beverly’s. well past breakfast unless your day starts at noon, we ordered lunch.

"build a burger" soundedgoodand it was two of them ordered, each ordered our own way. when this lunch came out, it was too much for the plate it was on. it really was a 1⁄2 pound of ground beef before cooking. but the burger was not the only thing about lunch.

a nice side of homemade cole slaw, made right where it wasn’t all wet and running all over the plate, soaking the rest of the food. it was the right flavor where you could eat it just as cole slaw, or, put some on the burger like you put cole slaw on a pulled pork sandwich. the cole slaw is not from a can off of sysco, but made on premise fresh daily.

with lunch was a large serving of red bliss potatoes, boiled, cooled, sliced and then deep fried. they were fried well where they were not a soft, mushy piece of potato starch, but instead were nice, browned, solid pieces and the skins were crispy. yes, these were made as skin-on home fries. when you finished the potatoes, left on the plate were those wonderful, marvelous, crispy crumbs of potato skin. they are so good. they alone with some salt were enough to fill you.

garnished with s twist of orange slice that was agoodorange and not just for the looks of a garnish.

coffee was good, not some “break room blend” from a service. the have soda water on tap where you aren’t drinking tap water or paying ridiculous prices for bottled water.

yes, this is the $6.00 burger you hear being trashed on television telling you to go to some fast food, drive through window dive, getting your lunch in a bag. our dogs’ food comes in a bag. at $6.95, it is well worth the order considering it’s not just the burger, but the sides included.

without question, it’s a “go back again” place to eat.

open 7 day per week. - 06:30 to 14:00. ~

good food atgoodprices. surprised on the prices being very reasonable, even more surprising for being in a resort and very tourist area. the food for breakfast was good, and plenty of coffee being refilled! busy and small place and so it gets crowded fast. i'd say agoodplace to eat breakfast, verygoodprice on the eggs, potatoes, toast, that's what i had here. i can say it would begoodoverall...

delicious breakfasts!. this is the 2nd time we've visited this restaurant - both times for breakfast - i think they're open until 2pm and they serve breakfast until then. i had the eggs benedict and it was absolutely amazing! this place always seems busy and the service and food is alwaysgood- also order the mimosa to go with your meal!

great food! we were totally impressed - got the benny seafood benedict it was sogoodand so filling i hated to leave the leftovers! my husband got the corn beef hash omlette it was great. on weekends be prepared for a short worthwhile wait! would go again!

i ate breakfast with "beverly". over labor day weekend, our party of six was searching for a reasonably priced restaurant for breakfast. we decided on beverly at first because of the location (just down the road from our resort), but clearly, our taste buds were the real brainiacs; who would deny a full table and homemade marmalade isn't agoodchoice?

don't let the parking lot fool you; when you walk into the beverly's you are quickly aware that you have made the correct choice; with every table full, the slight wait (about 8 mins.) was not an issue, once our table was full of: crepes, french toast, bacon, and parsley topped biscuits and gravy. we were sold at first bite.

we would certainly go back in an instant.

a dying breed. an excellent locally owned diner with tasty food andgoodservice. we had to wait in a line to get in at 10:30 on a monday morning for breakfast, but the wait was worth it. crousant french toast amazing, eggs perfectly cooked, plate sized fluffy pancakes. great coffee.

found restaurant thru urbanspoon this place is greatgoodportions great service will definitely come back

great breakfast spot. this place draws the crowds for a reason - you'll be hard pressed to find a better breakfast in south pinellas. they have an extensive menu with plenty of options - including healthy alternatives. the food is always fresh and the portions are huge. the pecan pancake is so tasty - and it fills the plate. the hollandaise sauce is excellent and if you like hollandaise there are about 10 different items that include it. the only downside is the grits are run of the mill and not asgoodas they should be. the place is kind of small so don't expect a lot of room, it's not uncomfortable, but don't be surprised if your table is inches from another. the waitresses constantly circulate with coffee - ensuring your cup is never empty. beverly, the owner, is always there and the waitresses have been there forever. this means the place is run well, they work well as a team, and they recognize and value their regulars.

pretty good. same ol' same ol. nothing special~ last time i was ther (18 mos ago) manager (owner?) told me wait was so long because somebody in kitchen stayed out too late~and i need to know back of the house problems..why? probably won't go back but prettygoodfood.
