Love this old school spot. This is the best place for take out breakfast. Everything is consistently tasty and everyone that works there is very friendly.

Great breakfast food. They have tons of great breakfast selection. Just make sure you order at the right time or you could be waiting awhile for your food.

I wish someone would have warned me that this was a creepy hole in the wall and not a «brunch» spot. In NY when you hear brunch it’s usually young hip trendy CLEAN maybe? This place is everything but Food is subpar even the OJ was watered down. You have been warned

I was there for the first time, ordered, coffee, and western omelette without cheese but added mushroom. The portion of food was huge for me. Omelette was very home taste. I wish they will refill my coffee for free. The price is very right, I paid under $ 10 for the meal. I will be back for others, particularly french toast and pancakes.

My buddy sent me out here for some breakfast sandwiches yesterday. They got a handful of Bacon egg & cheeses which I need to try next time. They put the Bacon on the grill and then pour the eggs over them and toss it all in the roll in one piece. I had the sausage egg and cheese on a long roll, i only finished it today because i also had an order of incredible french toast which I definitely need to order with Bacon next time. The only thing that could possibly make this place better is actual real maple syrup from somewhere north of the 42nd parallel. This place is in my bookmarks for good.

The service was good and my breakfast sandwich was quite nice. I appreciate the pride they took in its preparation. Excellent portion size for the price too. The 5th star is for having breakfast deliveries. I look forward to my next struggling Sunday morning and the phone call I’ll have to make to Brunic’s for a rescue.

just OK food, decent price, long wait, just OK ambience. Many have commended their customer service for locals. I believe that. The cashier seemed to know some people and maybe be super friendly to them. I just moved into the area. I was there at 9AM. Everyone was acting super busy with only 3 customers in store! It took more than 20 minutes for someone to take my order(with only 2 other customers). I know summer is hot and sweaty, but scratching body parts and then handling my toast with butter is not good practice. My food looked and tasted okay. I liked the sweet Italian sausage and home fries. but the eggs had black residue from the grill. I used to run a restaurant and we always clean the grill before making eggs. one thing you dont mess with in breakfast is eggs. they tell the truth about how the cook handles food. The cook also handles the cash and the waiter does delivery runs… how hygienic is that. I’m not asking for gloves and sanitary hand washes, but keep the money and street away from food. oh and BTW… it took another 17 minutes to get my check. I hope they clean up their act… or not. I got other places to visit.

The food is good here and reasonably priced but this review is more about the place. South Philly at its best. Not just the location… but the people who work and patronize Brunics. The lady taking phone orders knew just about every customer by name and didn’t even ask for a delivery address… they really know the neighborhood and their customers. I think I could sit at the counter for hours and observe the comings and goings at this one of a kind establishment.

I think they’re different owners from when I was a kid. But the food is still quick and tasty! They’ll deliver as well but I like to sit at the counter and watch TV /bullshit with customers.

Had a cheeseburger — it was very good. I will be going back just for the burger. Haven’t tried anything else yet but am planning on it.

Nice neighborhood place in south Philly. I’ve only had breakfast here, but it was pretty good. The home fries are deep fried but weren’t overly greasy. Omelets are nicely cooked and the coffee is good. It’s probably an average breakfast, closer to 3 stars, but I bumped it to 4 because the people working there were great. Everyone was very nice and accommodating. They were very easy to engage in conversation and really friendly. Several customers came in while I was there, I really get the feeling that there are many regulars and the employees know them all by name. That’s a great thing in a place like that.

Delicious breakfast in south Philly. Super simple sandwiches, decent coffee, and good breakfast specials. I had a bacon egg and cheese sandwich which was great and not greasy. My girlfriend had a sausage sandwich which she seemed to love.

I am addicted to scrapple. Is it really the remains of the pig after hot dogs have been made? Yes. Is it supposed to look like grey play-doh on the inside and a crisp turd on the outside? Yup. Is it a regional food that I think is over-the-moon delicious? Absolutely. And as a Philadelphian I am familiar with our local diners and most are stingy with their scrapple. Not Brunics. The give me a healthy serving of scrapple goodness. Brunics is a greasy spoon that serves the neighborhood for breakfast and lunch. A family owned establishment, the owners are nice, but still have a no-nonsense South Philadelphia edge to them. If you not familiar with this sort of establishment, then you may be put off by the service or the salty language. The food is coked in a pool of butter. Vegans, like an ancient vampire exposed to the suns deadly rays, would hiss and turn to ashes the minute they inhaled the buttery deliciousness of the air, which is fine by me. They aren’t expensive and the portions are huge. The place is a bit tight when they are busy. My biggest qualm is that the vulgar language is a bit much. I may be a prude, but sometimes we don’t have to hear the f-word three times in the same sentence.

I was surprised that this place has such high rating. First of all, the price is expensive for the types of food they serve and there are other better breakfast places in the neighborhood. I went here because I was too hungry to go elsewhere. It was a disappointing experience – the fries were not good and the omelet I got was just normal, nothing spectacular.

This is a great corner breakfast spot. Local, friendly, greasy, cheap. Generous portions. Large variety of breads to choose from for breakfast sandwiches. Sit at the counter of maybe 10 stools, or sit at three 4-top tables. This is breakfast definitely done right. I’ll be back.

Imagine your favorite dive bar, but for breakfast. Delicious, greasy, cheap, awesome breakfast! Brunic’s serves up fast and tasty breakfast along as well as lunch just off of Passyunk Ave in South Philly. The prices are great, the staff is friendly as you can imagine. Grab a table with some friends or sit at the counter to watch them whip up a hearty omelette with a heaping pile of home fries! I highly recommend the western omelette.
