Hi, what are some of the best places for breakfast in and around the Villages? Why?

[SALYBOW]

I like Billy's Cafe on 441 (Great potatoes), Perkins, 441 good pancakes etc. and cracker Barrel home cooked with biscuits.

[Cedwards38]

Toojay's is good, but it's hard to beat Cracker Barrel. I can taste those pecan pancakes right now.

All of the above mentioned plus Son Rise Café and Toojay's

[Bavarian]

Perkins for Mammoth Muffins and Kielbasa

[Shimpy]

In this order............Athens, Johnny Rockets, Katie Bells, 2 Jays here in TV. Now if you want to drive a little and want the best breakfast in Florida go to Reds in Hernando. It's about an hour and 10 mins. from here but well worth the very pleasant drive. I could name several others the same distance from here that are excellent, but Reds is the king.

I think you're missing out on a great start to the day if you don't have breakfast @ Rae Rae's in Fruitland Park!

Do a search here on Rae Rae's for reviews of TOTVers who have been there!

I thought Bonifay had a pretty nice breakfast last winter. Bob Evans and Son Rise are also are pretty good places for breakfast. I know this much for sure---Sunday's every breakfast restaurant in TV seems to have an over-flow of customers.

You can ruin a breakfast but you almost have to work at it IMHO!

My favorite is Bob Evans on 466. Try their country breakfast with two eggs, choice of breakfast meat, hash or country friend potatoes and crepe with fresh blueberries or strawberries and bananas. We often have it for dinner and get the two for one coupon on line.

AND Toojays. With potato pancake and good bagel and all other usual stuff.

I prefer Cracker Barrel but I haven't checked out the following:
1. Bob Evans,
2, SonRise Cafe.
3. Billy's.
4. Perkins.
5. Any country club that has a buffet.
6. Katie Belle's.

If you like pancakes. there's always IHOP.

Rae Rae's in Fruitland Park is head and shoulders above all of these. Home made corned beef hash is fantastic!

I will have to try it. thanks.

Rae Raes on 441. What a great breakfast. Just past Phillips Auto and the Citgo station on the right, in a small plaza on the end. What I like is they ask your first names when taking your order, and then whenever they come over to your table, they use your name. Had the corned beef hash also, plus homemade biscuits!!

I agree with all those listed except for Cracker Barrel. I've had to eat b'fast there quite a few times and their bacon tastes so processed, I think I'm eating cardboard. Wasn't impressed with their breads either. The eggs are okay, but how can you ruin that?

I have found the best, freshest, made to order breakfast at Lil Bits. Have eaten breakfast and lunch there many times and have not been disappointed a bit, especially with their daily specials. They will even change the special for me without additional cost (within reason of course). Everyone is very friendly and I haven't had to wait on any long line, YET!!

They are in the shopping plaza off CR101 which is across the street from Crispers. Try them, you'll like them.
