Default Billy's Cafe

I tried Billy's for breakfast and I will not return. The Home fries if you want to call them that, were not much more then boiled potatoes, and were chopped like someone was using an ax and looked like they were just warmed on the grill.

Now I'm really confused...go figure!!!

Seriously, one person's experience can be very different than the next guy's.

That's not to say that each one's not valid.

It is just for that reason that I will post a compliment if I have a good experience, but will not post a negative comment unless I have given the establishment the proverbial "3 strikes".

I agree with Bogie. Always get a good breakfast at a reasonable price. Personally, I enjoy the home fries, but to each his own.

If you DID go to Billy's out on 441, I am shocked to read your comments about the home fries! They are absolutely, positively the best my husband and I have ever eaten.....truly "fried" with a wonderful, crispy crust. Oh well, I can only hope that everyone who reads your post will decide NOT to go there. The waiting lines are already far too long.

I can't stand Billy's. Asked for egg beaters instead of eggs for my omelet and was told no and if I didn't like it I could leave. So I did. Won't be back.

Never been to Billys.

That sounds AWFUL mean.

Did they not have them and didn't want to add to menu? They told you
that if you didn't like it you could leave? In my whole life I haven't ever heard anybody say anything so mean over something so small.

I would have left and I would have been hurt to pieces.

Hugs to you.
