Quin MarshallAugust 27, 2016Good old fashioned American comfort food breakfast and brunch! Their bacon is perfect--crisp and thick cut. The Bloody Mary is very nice. Don't bother with the bagels, though-wrong texture
Francisca NachtJune 2, 2016Great breakfast - you can go all in with waffles, hash browns, bacon or healthy with omelet, fruit salad. All good. And classic carrot cake - yum.
Patricia CostaMay 11, 2019EVERYTHING is GOOD here. True confort food. It’s not big so, come early if you don’t want to wait. Eggs benedict are a must
- Manoella PereiraJanuary 21, 2018American breakfast all day and it's amazing! There's lots of options but to me the best one is the country style breakfast dish, they also serve lunch.
DevontaJanuary 27, 2018Really great American breakfast all day everyday. Pleasantly surprise how good the food was.
Jota JotaJune 1, 2014A bit expensive for breakfast food but they have things like root beer and cream soda floats and great American favorite cakes.
Gisele DreesbachNovember 7, 2015Pros: small place in the heart of Ipanema. Nice place for breakfast. Cons: The rating here is not so high because it is expensive, service is slow. They don't show Bundesliga matches...
Michael GeppNovember 10Ordered bagel with lox and capers and two buttermilk pancakes for breakfast. Excellent choice!
Ana SenaApril 23, 2016Pancakes with maple syrup were the best I had in Rio. Egg white omelette was good and service OK. The place is not cosy - wish it looked more like a typical American diner. Expensive for what you get.
Bruna PilotoJanuary 31, 2015It's quite expensive for what you get. The place is cute, retro style. Very American. The best dessert is the chocolate pie.
Rodrigues ComandolliFebruary 1, 2015the pancakes and waffles are great, as well as the service. The only issue it's a quite expensive and there's no air conditioning.- Perfect place to have an American style breakfast or a snack in the afternoon. Parfait pour un petit-déjeuner américain a Rio.
Mark LinderNovember 21, 2015Legit pancakes, endless mimosa's and the wifi password is still: cheesecake.
I love this place!! I'm right upstairs and I encourage it to become a great spot! Good food and top notch service...AMO!!- Bianca PlavnikSeptember 1, 2013Bagel, waffle, pancake, hash browns com ovos, biscuit, tudo muito booommmm <3
Rick PereiraMarch 25, 2012A good choice for those who are kindda homesick. The pancakes are good. And the meatloaf is awesome.
Carlos GranadosMay 5, 2013there are very few places where they speak english...and this is one of them...good one! :D
David MoranJune 19, 2014American restaurant full of tourists (even more now during the World Cup). Really bad and slow service, they messed up the orders 3 times and took more than 40 mins. Food could be better for the price
Petr J.November 16, 2020The eggs in my Benedict were almost hard boiled. Service was totally disorganized. There was nothing that would justify the high prices. Avoid.
for a touch of good ole american cooking in the heart of ipanema.
Annie QuachJune 15, 2014Small portions for the price....if you are from America. Bacon was good though...
Marco GomesDecember 6, 2018Ótimo café da manhã "estilo americano", ovos, bacon, bagel com salmão, waffle, pancake, omelete, cheesecake, sangria, mimosa etc.
Rafael SartoSeptember 12, 2016Minha primeira vez no Rio com a ótima recepção no café da manhã do Gringo Café! Atendimento excelente, ambiente delicioso, e refeições fartas bem tradicionais da gringa. Quero voltar lá!
Luísa MonteOctober 15, 2016Aquele café da manhã americanizado com sustância e muito colesterol 😂 Café da casa e mimosa são refil, se joga. Eggs benedict são divinos!
Ana Flavia CoelhoFebruary 19, 2020Aberto 24h !!!! Tem todos as opções : eggs Benedict, French toast, Pao na chapa, sucos, cafés etc.... quente ( Rio..) , serviço ótimo!
Claudia SkobelkinSeptember 6, 2014Brunch com pancakes, waffles e omeletes. Opções de sanduíches, bagel com cream cheese, crepes, cheesecakes e cocktails diversos. Bom atendimento e lotado de gringos. Toca Madonna anos 80.
O lugar é uma graça e o atendimento super acolhedor. Típico café americano. Panquecas com maple, waffles, eggs benedict e café coado à vontade. Amo!
Larissa CandidoMarch 31, 2013Ambiente super acolhedor, comida ótima! Para breakfast peça o prato com ovos mexidos, bacon e panqueca ! E ainda tem direito a um cafe expresso, suco ou cappucino! Samuel, tks 4 everything, congrats !- Rafael SartoSeptember 12, 2016Minha primeira vez no Rio com a ótima recepção no café da manhã do Gringo Café! Quero voltar lá!
João NogueiraSeptember 20, 2014Carrot cake: sensacional! Belíssima surpresa. Em compensação, o Combinado Country vem numa quantidade lamentável, chega a ser constrangedor. Pedimos c/ linguiça, panqueca e french toast à parte.
Luiza CamposFebruary 6, 2015Pedimos um combinado e uma panqueca na sexta depois do almoço. Comida deliciosa, dj incrível e atendimento maravilhoso! Super recomendado :)
Camila PDecember 31, 2014Eggs overeasy, bacon, french toast com maple syrup e ice cream soda de morango! Café da manhã dos campeões!
