Mollies Famous Cafe

This is such a terrific restaurant. We go in here a few times a week for breakfast, brunch, lunch, linner, and dinner. Always good food and wonderful service. Go in the morning and watch the show when Victor comes by your table to fill your coffee.

Great food and excellent service!Steak Ranchero & French Toast 👌

Friendly staff. Food is good. It’s a great little dinner style atmosphere. For the holidays they decorated with Santa’s all over and a Christmas tree. Parking lot is very busy. But we enjoyed it.

Absolutely lovely staff. Makes you feel like home. Alot of different choices in food and against a good price! Absolutely great place!!

My favorite breakfast spot. Friendly staff great food.

San Juan Capistrano History. Great for breakfast and Home style Food At a Great Price!

One of the best home-cooked breakfast around. Great family atmosphere, highly recommend if you're in San Juan Capistrano. We will be coming back to try the lunch.

Great breakfast lunch and dinner with a small town feel.

Greasy food. Burned toast. Asked about turkey sausage and I was told the owner didn’t want to order it.

Great food, even better people!!

Breakfast and service was great. You can tell this is a local fav. I highly recommend checking this place out. The chicken fried steak and eggs with home fried potatoes and biscuits and gravy was tasty and filling.

We came here for lunch because we were craving breakfast. I ordered the Homemade Scramble with a side of bacon. The homemade scramble is three eggs, home fries and onions. It was good but needed some seasoning or cheese. It was busy and the waitress would ask us a question and walk away before we could answer. I ordered a refill on my water and when the waitress brought to the table it had a bean in the water. The bean was raw but she didn't notice so we told a busboy and he thought it was funny. The pancakes are good and the bacon was delicious.

Mollies is a great little diner. It has a old time, traditional diner feel and the food exceeded my expectations. French fries are fresh and a little crispy, chicken fingers were lightly breaded and very juicy 😋. Everyone who worked there was friendly and attentive. The restaurant name seems appropriate!

All the locals love the tuna melt sandwich with potato salad. I like their breakfast

Awesome breakfast place! A local favorite! Very unassuming local restaurant, nothing fancy. Just great food and very friendly service. My only complaint is that they can a little slow, which is a problem if you're there on weekdays. If you're not in a hurry, their food, service, and prices are all very friendly.

Great food! Gets somewhat busy and crowded sometimes. But worth it!

A solid breakfast experience. We got the chicken fried steak and eggs and the homemade scramble. The gravy was delicious and the pancake and the toast were quite good. The scramble was missing a flavor (bacon?) and the home fries were just okay.The service was good and very attentive.

Fantastic, been going here since forever and it's still 10/10 would definitely recommend

Yum! Great menu and service

New to town I found Molly's in a corner by the train crossing. This place is like getting a meal at your Aunties. I mean the cool nice one. Great specials, fast polite friendly service. TIP *** If full parking overflow to the market place next to the corner gas station. I've had many a special there, great meals, full tummy and not too hard on the wallet.

Fantastic friendly service, excellent fresh food. Went for breakfast as recommended by a friend and wasn’t disappointed. Highly recommended.

Wide menu selection. Delicious breakfast choices. Fast and courteous service. Reasonably priced. 6 breakfast meals for $85.

GREAT PLACE GREAT SERVICE GREAT FOOD GOOD PRICES FRIENDLY !!!

This Cafe truly had the small mom and pop cafe/restaurant feel that is lacking in 2018 restaurants. My family loved their display of historical photos along the walls. Great service all around and would recommend this place for breakfast to anyone, just keep in mind on a Sunday there was a wait at 9am.

We come often for a good meal at Mollies. The food is always good and fresh and there's a big and nice selection. The service is friendly and efficient. Good prices. Recommended warmly.

Good food and friendly staff.

Great hometown feeling. Excellent friendly service. I had the Monte Christo which was made to perfection. I will come again when in the area.

This spot never fails to impress. They serve great dishes for fair rates, there no long wait even when they are packed.

Surprisingly good comfort food. Very comfortable old school diner. Friendly family feeling atmosphere. Very easy to get into as it's not crowded at all. Highly recommended.

Yum yum yum lobster omelette. So much lobster.

Been coming here since I was a kid! Everyone greets you with a smile and a sincere hello! Food has always been amazing! The friendliness from servers like Gina and the hospitality from busboys like David are absolutely what makes this place what it is!

Service was spectacular! The waiters did a great job of checking in on us throughout our time. The food was good too! They don't go easy on the whipped cream which was a real treat and the food was cooked well. Enjoyed my steak

The sevice was great and very fast. The food was good and tasty. Friendly staff and quite busy on a Saturday morning. A bit overpriced for simple French Toast and Eggs breakfast with coffee. Still would recommend though.

Been going to Molly's for over 16 years and the food has been consistent great tasting great service and wonderful atmosphere

Delicious food, excellent service. They're meatball soup is like home made, the steak was perfectly cooked and the enchiladas were very good. The waitress was always checking on us making sure we had everything needed.

Good food. Got their Hot Chocolate and was nicely surprised: it came in a mug with plenty of whipped cream!

Food great. Home cooking quality. Large portions. A little pricey, but well worth it. International flavors. Service decent to good. Really like this place. Always a great tasting meal with enough food and two courses.

Local legend. Best breakfast spot in San Juan. Can be very crowded at breakfast and lunch. Food good.

Wonderful staff. Prompt service, given how busy they were. Plus, the food was absolutely delicious and filling. 10/10 would recommend.

Good value for the dollar. Excellent bacon.

A nice cafe in an ideal location. Sad that hired kitchen employees fall short of the cafe' alluring name. The beef was ok, the gravy was too thick and salty, instant runny mashed potatoes, and the cut ends of our broccoli offering were dirty brown. We left significant portions of the $30.00 meal. When the check came I asked the server why rolls were not served. Informed that rolls are included based upon guest request. At the end we got rolls, buttered-up, paid-up, too never return.

Definitely a new favorite for weekend breakfast! We decided to try something new, and were very happy with Mollies. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, and even brought us coffee as we were outside waiting for a table. They seemed to know everyone that came through their door. Very cozy, inviting atmosphere with large booths and a bar-style counter. Food was great and very reasonably priced. Typical breakfast dishes from scrambles to pancakes (the banana nut pancake was delicious). No overpriced BS that seems to come with so many SoCal restaurants these days. Just a good old local diner. We'll definitely be going back.

I have been coming to Molly's cozy cafe for 14 year's now. This is the best gem of San Juan Capistrano

Best breakfast in town, closes to home-cooking, without cooking it yourself

I took this pic after being all done. Apparently very busy prior to me arriving. Yet they were down to one cook in the kitchen. Yet the waitress was busting her butt to serve all that was in restaurant. Great service and hot good food. I’ll be back.

Small town vibe. Great service, best non Mexican food in town

Busy, friendly place for breakfast. Attentive service too. Bottomless coffee and wide choice of options for breakfast. You can order from their full menu (not only breakfast items). I tried the tuna melt sandwich with potato salad (see photo). Highly recommended.

The friendship with the employees, also it like a big family gathering. My mom Helen Mc Mullen came here for a long time. I like mollies cause it is a warm place.

We had a late breakfast on Friday around 10:00 and had a pick of which tables we wanted to sit. I had the machaca breakfast and my husband had the biscuits and gravy plate, plus a banana nut pancake side. Everything was served hot and promptly, but the food was ok, nothing stood out.

You have to get the hot chocolate there! Just wait til you see how it's served! The food, the staff and the people you will meet there are all great. It's a must do whenever I visit my friend in California.
