I am always looking for new breakfast places around Lakewood to try something different. I came across the Bordlerine Cafe and wanted to try it out. My first visit, I found it very hard to find the restuarant. They have no larger sign, only a small light up sign in the window, but for future reference it is right next to the new insomnia cookie. After I finally found the door, it was so packed that I could not stand inside. We also noticed a sign on the door that it was cash only. I was not prepared for that and settled on going to a difference restaurant and returning to Borderline at a later date.
The second time that I came for breakfast, there was a smaller wait and I was with only 1 other person. We got seated in a cute window seat very quickly and had AMAZING service throughout our entire breakfast. Our waitress was very attentive and remained calm even thought there was a huge wait. I would say the best way to descibe it was good ol' southern hospitality which is always refreshing! I ordered an eggs benedict meal and was not disappointed.
I would highly recommend trying Borderline out for breakfast. Since it is owned by locals and the staff is friendly and awesome it is easy to look past the wait. Just make sure that you have a small intimate crew and bring enough cash to cover the bill.
