East End Eatery is a popular spot for many, especially known for its breakfast. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere with artwork from local artists on the walls, which are also available for purchase. The service is friendly and attentive, and the food is highly praised for its freshness and quality. They offer gluten-free and vegan options, including a Tempeh Scramble with Potatoes that is thoughtfully prepared using local tempeh. The menu features dishes like scrambled eggs with gouda Grits and French toast with real maple syrup, along with vegetarian choices such as the tempeh scramble with mushrooms, spinach, and tomatoes served in a delicious sauce topped with cheese. Customers also enjoy the salads and paninis, and the environment is relaxing and beautiful, making it a great place for conversation. While some have noted smaller portions and slower kitchen service during lunch hours, many find the prices reasonable and the quality better than most breakfast venues. The restaurant does not accept credit cards, only cash, local checks, or Venmo. East End Eatery remains a delightful dining experience with interesting art on all the walls and a kid-friendly area with toys.
