doc taylor's

shhhhh. don't tell the tourists!!!. um. doc taylor's really sucks. i mean, the food tastes like dirt and the staff is horrible. if you're coming in from out of town, you really really want to go somewhere else.

yummy pancakes, amazing omelette, worth the wait!

favorite breakfast spot!. the downside of doc taylor's is that unless you get there super early (especially on a weekend, which is the only time i can go), it's usually a wait. thankfully, they have pretty good outdoor seating and great bloody marys to pass the time while you wait for a table.

if you like "greasy spoon" type breakfast spots, as i do, this place is great. my husband first found out about it last year and raved how good it was (since our formerly favorite greasy spoon breakfast spot seems to have closed down...). it did not disappoint! great diner style breakfasts, but everything is always made beautifully and tastes great. i usually stick to something egg related, though i'm itching to try on of their pancakes. while none of the breakfast menu items are particularly "weight conscious", they do have a few lighter options for those that are looking for it. but honestly, when i go here i pile up on the toast, bacon (which i normally don't eat) and hash browns!

the atmosphere on a typical weekend morning is usually loud and crowded: packed with locals and hung-over tourists alike. parking it out back and during the height of the season they give you a tag for parking. it's usually packed too, so be aware it can be a bit exciting to navigate if you have a larger vehicle.

the food was pretty good but our server was horrible. i asked her if i could substitute hash browns for bacon in my meal and she said yes but failed to mention there was an up charge. she dropped our food off and quickly walked away without asking if we needed anything else. we waited for her to come back so we could ask for some hot sauce but she never came back. we finished our meal and literally sat there for 15 minutes until we had to get out of our seat and walk up to her to ask for our check. oh and it was 730 in the morning and we were one of the only ones in there. we won't be coming back due to the service.

amazing. doc taylor's is amazing, probably my favorite plasce to eat in virginia beach. the food was delicious. the waitstaff and barstaff are great-they really know what they are doing. they have the best, and cheapest, bloody marys in the world. my only complaint is the wait. the 2 hour wait to be seated will keep us away unil the tourist season is over. go here.

breakfast. food was good,portions are small. if you want spicy biscuits and gravy go to big sams!!

best place to go for breakfast!

based on the reviews i had high expectations which fell woefully short. the omelet was a little rough. the avocado was starting to brown and the chicken was overcooked and simply put, bland and disappointing. the granola pancakes were definitely good and worth trying but they weren't outstanding like i was expected. they are basically good quality pancakes with granola sprinkled in at the end which sits on top. everything else was just ok. the service was great and it had the feel of a hidden gem with great ambiance, just not the taste. maybe it was an off day or ordered the wrong items.

the best!. doc taylor's is the best breakfast in town, period. their menu is so well put together, they have about 8-10 signature items, 6 or so different omelettes, and a dozen or so standard egg breakfasts. they have by far the best banana pancakes i have ever had. each time i get them, they just keep getting better. everything on the menu is fresh and delicious. the staff is incredible. the kitchen is open and it is great to watch the cooks work. best in the business and super nice. doc taylor's has set the bar for me as my favorite breakfast i have ever had. thank you doc taylor's!

fast service and great breakfast in a bed and breakfast type atmosphere.

hurry up and wait. i have only "dined in" once here. the last time i went by to check on the wait, it was at 4 hours. i ended up getting my food to go, which came out in record time. why would anyone wait that long for some breakfast? i admit that the food is good, but the service i am unsure about. i will continue to get my food to go, which means no tip for the servers from me, until the wait time comes back down to something a little more reasonable.

great food & atmosphere, awful wait. i used to go to doc's all the time. i love the food, it always comes out fast and exactly how i like it. the same people have worked there for years which indicates to me that they take care of their employees and i like that. however, i haven't been in a year because the wait has went from 20-30 minutes to over an hour on the weekends (which is the only time we are able to go). we have tried 7-10 times at different times and different times of year. but sorry, not worth getting out of bed at 7am when i don't have to go to work to eat at doc's! every time we walk away because, even though i absolutely love this place, i cannot justify waiting that long for anything. maybe i'm just impatient and have been spoiled from the days that you could get in in under 30 minutes. usually it would be a higher wait during the season but we could always get in on a sunday in the winter almost immediately. not anymore. if you don't mind waiting & you're not hungry yet & you're with a crowd, it's kinda fun. but if you're impatient like me, it's not worth it.

breakfast was good. a solid meal at reasonable cost.

great breakfast - reasonably priced - love the atmosphere! great service!

would move for this breakfast spot!. all i need to say is $1.99 bloody marys. food was delicous and i really enjoyed my southern ham. service was a little bit slow though. definatly a place i would go to all the time if it was in nj
