The stuffed challah french toast Its the best french toast that I've ever eaten in my life. The problem with it its that its too much for one person it will be great if they offer smaller size.

Larisa Popescu

Sabrina's specialities are more than awesome! Great place to taste delicious american food (and trust me, I'm not a big fan😋). Friendly and helful staff !

Amy Vernon

If you ask for your steak and eggs rare, it will be RARE. It was a great cut of steak and very tasty. The blei cheese frittata was also quite good. The potatoes are perfectly cooked.

Jenna Lancaster

Best breakfast in the city . If you don't get the challah stuffed French toast you're missing out. Service is fast/tends to be busy, but bar seating is likely available. SERIOUSLY GET THE FRENCH TOAST .

Amaury J

Amazing service, even better food. Can't go wrong with the stuffed French toast . The coffee was really good; probably one of the best I've had. They told me it's from Louisiana.

Sabrina's Cafe

The Mels Chicken Cutlet was one of the first specials Chef Lance put on the brunch menu when he first started. People loved it so much we had to keep it around. Try it and let us know if you agree! Read more

Danielle Maccone

Call ahead to put your name on the list so you don't have to wait an hour on the weekends. One of the best brunches I have ever had. A must when in Philly!

John Brumbaugh

Pro tip: Sabrina's Cafe is more than just brunch , this place serves an amazing dinner . They serve home style favorites in creative and interesting ways at dinner Too!

LJ Kiss

It's a very busy place, great attention from everyone. Ask for any pancake to share, all dishes are amazing.

Brittany Sübers

I got the 2 eggs with cheddar , homies, and multigrain toast for $6.99. Great flavours with garlic and onions . Highly recommend for breakfast here.

CollegeFashionista

Sabrina's Cafe and Spencer's Too is the best place for weekend brunch ! Try the stuffed French toast or Mexican specials and enjoy a fun atmosphere in close to the Philadelphia Art Museum .

Tiffany Abbey

I love this place! Found it on Yelp and tried it while in town visiting. Amazing fresh food , staff was awesome and friendly . Want to go back ASAP! Get the soup of the day!

Reinhold Residential

Get here as early as you can (8 AM is open time) on the weekends to avoid the brunch rush as hungry fans await their fix of famed stuffed French toast , Huevos Rancheros and sweet potato fries .

Dave Johnson

The stuffed French toast always changes and is great (aside from the diabetic shock and food coma). Come wicked early on the weekends as they don't take reservations and you can't call ahead.

Kristan Overfield

Everything is amazing! The wait is long at brunch time but the food is worth it. I've had nachos , granola w/yogurt and berries (its enough for 2), huevos rancheros , greek salad & dinner....all great!

Theresa Roldan

I had the huevos rancheros and granola with Greek yogurt and berries .....both were extremely delicious.

Sexy LF

The specials menu is to die for. Crazy Eyed French Toast stuffed with ricotta and chocolate chip cookies ? They win on the name and the deliciousness. A must-visit!

Karin Schmit

Had a great breakfast , lovely service. Big portions and very delicious. Try the egg benedict .

Dennis B

You can't go wrong with the french toast here! Where you can go wrong is showing up with a large group and expecting to get a table. Nope!

Mr. Aseel

One of the best cafe in Philly, cozy place and helpful staff . Try their pancake with strawberry and chocolate chips 👍🏼

Joe C

What *isn't* good here?! Best weekly specials around. Sandwiches and brunch are epic. The service is phenomenal. I've never once left here unhappy.

Aimee Shafer

French toast was amazing! Use the no wait app to minimize your wait time. Sunday brunch is always a super long wait between 10 am-1pm

Joanna Flamm

Plain challah french toast is amazing! Very busy on the weekends, use the Nowait app to get on the list before you go.

Cryssi Lynn

The stuffed French Toast is just as heavenly as described!! Nearly impossible to eat on your own although my boyfriend ate his. Definitely shareable & delicious :)

Zein Samer

One of the best places for brunch in Philly .. Try their stuffed French Toast .

Breakfast is great here! Food is delish and the portions sizes are huge! Mmmmm. I had the Challah French Toast with strawberries and bananas over top. I'm about to go in a food coma shortly .

One of the best places for brunch in Philadelphia! Packed on weekends so call in advance to have your name on the wait list.

Maddie Lippincott

INSANELY busy. We waited for over an hour for a table, but it was totally worth it. Def recommend the home fries and the Challah French Toast .

Nofi .B

Large portions !! Yummy food..Cahllah French Toast (a-must!) for those with a sweet tooth, Mexi-specil eggs .

Matthew Gerlitzki

Try the stuffed French toast . Best ever in my life. Excellent service and restaurant . Highly recommend.

I used to think people we're nuts to wait in a long line outside to get in here, but now I totally get it! Terrific place! Great food, service and atmosphere!

Whitney Stamey

Great Brunch Spot ! BYOB . Very busy.

You can't beat breakfast or brunch at Sabrina's. I could live on their pancakes , french toast , and insane omelettes .

Juanjo Prado

Everything here is amazing!! Best place for breakfast and brunch

Candace Marie

Stuffed French toast is great, omelets , are so tasty, and very large portions of everything

The kitchen sink dish is big! I couldn't even eat the potatoes . But it was really good.

morg

Mexi special is the forever go to. Filling, and the grits are unique with black beans in them!

Nadia M

Cheesecake Oreo is the best ever! Loved this place!

Felisha Williams Davis

Enormous food 🥘 QUALITY FOOD 🥘 Home like atmosphere The pancakes are the size of your face if not bigger GO ON A EMPTY STOMACH

Kristerpher Henderson

Hop on Yelp! and join the waitlist. You’ll thank me later.

Danielle Boudreau

Awesome spot! Very young and vibrant. Great food, big portions , lots of options!

L Gabriel

If you are into the real thing, don't try the huevos rancheros . A heresy. Marinara sauce , hard tortillas , a mess of guacamole , sour cream and potatoes , no beans. A mish mash where flavors don't blend.

Marissa M

Bring your appetite (HUGE portions ) and substitute for sweet potato french fries (not greasy). Sprinkled with powder sugar and cinnamon . Delicious.

Philadelphia Magazine

Go for brunch and try the turkey bacon and spinach frittata or the unbelievably thick-cut cream-cheese-stuffed French toast . Read more

Campbell Bird

Mexi-special is always different, but almost always worth it. I hear the French toast is great too.

Patrick Ward

Great brunch spot if you're over this way. They don't take reservations and there is always a wait

A7MAD .
