Billy's on Rte 27 across from Walmart, Mary's Kitchen in Belleview, and the Dam Diner in Oklawaha. These are typical workingman's type diners. Good food at reasonable prices. Guess they are still OK, haven't been in TV since May.

The ones you mention above are some of the most popular, looking at previous feedback on TOTV.
If you are looking for gourmet breakfast............you will not find it in or near TV.
Maybe define what you mean by "decent places".

Katie Belle's. Buffet is excellent. If you don't like the buffet they prepare delicious omelettes ( you choose the ingredients). Cracker Barrel's streusel French toast...yummmmmmmmy!

Here's another vote for Billy's on 441. I also really like the Cottage Inn on 441 in Lady Lake. It's a little working man's diner right next to a barber shop and the Par-Car dealership. Both places have good food and great prices. Gourmet breakfasts aren't my thing though.

Hands down Cracker Barrel. Second choice Perkins. Third choice Bob Evans Depends what you like to eat. I think CB has the best french toast and pancakes. And more food than you can possibly eat in one setting. (well for most folks )

Cracker Barrel without a doubt! We often spit a meal. Fun to browse the gift shop before the food comes.

Incredible chewy bagels at Brooklyn Water Bagels. Their muffins look good too.

and then there is mcdonalds for the hotcakes and sausages. the hotcakes are the lightest and fluffiest around; unfortunately it is not the bargain that they used to be. still, meals for 2 for under $10.00 and no tipping.

Billy's on 441 has great pancakes and omlets
About 15 minutes north in Bellvue is Aunt Fannies that have biscuits to die for - rest of food is pretty good also

Billy's on 441 close to and across the street from Walmart is a great breakfast old style diner. Their version of cheese blintzes (they call 'em rollups) is to die for, as is their Greek omelet!

Default Favorite Breakfast

Do you think there's a reason Katie Belle's stopped serving breakfast?
