What a happy find! The chicken and waffles were delicious. The waffle was just the right amount of crispy and full of great flavor. Honestly this could be the best waffle I have ever had. Chicken wings are perfectly crunchy and absolutely full of flavor. We also had the pulled pork breakfast burrito. Also wonderful! The eggs and hash browns cooked perfectly and that pulled pork flavor really shines. Finished our meal with Peach Cobbler, as you should. A sweet ending to our happy find. Great staff and amazing food. Highly recommend!
WOW so good! Got the chicken and waffle as well as the bacon breakfast burrito. The chicken is so juicy. Burrito was amazing, 10/10, definitely coming back soon to try their lunch menu!
We had a great time at BB’s Cafe We ordered burritos, fried chicken, waffles, and eggs. The food was tasty and fresh, and the portions were just right. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy. I would definitely recommend this place.
This was our 1st time eating here but won't be our last The restaurant is small but very beautiful. It has 3 tables with 4 seats each. The food was cooked with love. Waffles we're fluffy & filling! The cat fish and chicken were seasoned to perfection . Their pulled pork breakfast burrito was bomb with the hot sauce . On top of all that, the manager was so nice & inviting! She took our order, brought it out to us & even came out to talk with us for a lil bit; Very hospitable. I would've left another tip before we left if I had the cash on me but we will be back soon! Go check this place out if you're ever in the area!
Lovely little joint that serves breakfast and lunch. 70's, 80's and 90's jams while I eat my hot link and waffle? Say less. About 3 tables in the place so get here early on busy mornings. The food is fresh, hot, and comforting. I'll definitely be back!
Been living in Covina for several years now and I’ve always pass this place up. Not sure why. I recently tried the chicken and waffles and it was delicious. The waffle had a crispy exterior with a soft bite. And the fried chicken was perfectly seasoned, fresh, and cooked to order. Great place to eat and the only soul food restaurant nearby. A must try if you have it.
