I have fallen completely head over heels for Green Street Grill, and I can’t wait to tell you all about this gem of a new restaurant. See, in our neck of the woods, adorable cafes that serve amazing breakfast can be hard to come by. And I love, like passionately love, going out for breakfast. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that I am actually able to leave the house and have eggs served up to me often, but I like the option for a fantastic place to at least be there…you know, in case there’s a chance I might redeem my fantasy 😉
Recently, I had a business meeting scheduled at the Green Street Grill in Downingtown, PA. Twist my arm. I was thrilled for the excuse to check out this new hot spot. The Green Street Grill did NOT disappoint. Everything about this place–the menu, the atmosphere, the delicious food, the eclectic coffee cups, and friendly staff–was dynamite. It had me sold. I then did what any normal blogger would do; I started hounding owner Kerry Greco to let me review his place. More accurately, I forced two more friends to join me for breakfast there and stalked Kerry until he would listen me.
A word about Kerry? He’s awesome. He has that cool laid-back vibe coupled with an obvious incredibly savvy approach to business. Kerry’s the kind of guy who sets you at ease and leaves you wanting to knock back a few cups of java with him while you shoot the breeze. And when I spilled coffee on my pants during our latest chat? He sweetly passed me a napkin and kept the conversation rolling. God love him.
Check Kerry out for yourself:
And you can win a gift certificate to Green Street Grill! Easy-peasy!

You can read all about the restuarant online, but the basic info you need to know about the Green Street Grill:
Menu: Full breakfast and lunch menus available at the website. Their scones are sort-of FAMOUS (um, filled chocolate chip cookie dough scones?? Screw the Fitbit count, I need in on this action), and I went all-out one morning and dug into a fantastic Eggs-Benedict-esque dish with crab cake in place of the bacon. And I am not a Hollandaise gal, but true story? Every time I think of this dish, I start to drool a little bit. Husband, are you reading this?? I need to go back to Green Street Grill STAT.
Tidbit of info possibly only important to a mom, but I still need to share it: During one of the breakfast/stalking-Kerry situations involved in the formulation of this review, my 2 yr. daughter was in accompaniment. Annie, our sweet, sweet waitress said NOTHING when my girl chucked her cantaloupe on the floor (an offensive melon, apparently), and instead repeatedly cooed over how cute she was in her new fall boots. Trust me, if you’ve spent the money on Pedipeds and/or are forced to take your daughter along to “work” (albeit, a gig that involves someone else pouring your coffee), you understand why I have forever pledged my love to Annie and the waitstaff of Green Street Grill. The general takeaway? The employees are really friendly, even if you have kids with you, and this makes me want to go back.
Address: 150 E. Pennsylvania Ave, Downingtown, PA, 19935 (former location of the Blue Cafe)
Phone: 610.873.1700
Hours: Monday-Saturday, 7am-2:30pm, Sunday, 7am-2pm
So we’re clear? Green Street Grill is The Place to Be. Go snag a meal, and then chill over a delightful cup of coffee for me. In my fantasies, I will be joining you.
This post is sponsored by Green Street Grill, but all opinions remain 100% my own. Love Green Street!
