WHat happened here???? I have been going to this restaurant for 5 years. Went this past weekend and it took forever to get food. We only ordered French toasts and omelets and it seemed like the food would never come. Coffe refills were slow. My server was def not on top of his game. I have never had these problems before and sad that I had told people how good it was and had a not so great experience. I know there is a new owner but recognized people who have been there before. WHen the food finally did come it was alright. Server needs some more training even though he said he was not new!! Would love to give it another try since I am in the area often let me hear from others who may have had a better recent experience!!

Where is Patty's other restaurant. Been going there for years and she has sold. Probably the best breakfast place on the shore. Hopefully her other restaurant is near by. Will miss her this summer.

This place still offers very good food. It is now called Yvonnes Cafe. The food is still basically the same with a few new items. Yvonne has kept Patty on which is a smart business move. Her cooking especially at breakfast time is wonderful. Yes the place is remodeled and looks good. Thanks to the old and the new; the combination will be very successful because from what I have been told Patty will stay and with the two of them putting thier heads together this place will be verry successful. Good luck!!

What happenned to Patty K????!! this place has great food. It's breakfast is one the best in the state. Heard Patty sold though and it is now Yvones Cafe. Was there this past weekend and was shocked to see Patty gone. The friendliness is not there as it was. The food was still good but the atmosphere was sooo different. Sprucing up makes it look good but the friendliness that Patty always showed was missing. Heard Patty is around and I hope so because this restaurant needs her.

EXCELLENT!! One of the best places for breakfast I have been. The food is great, service is fine and the coffee is very good. The pancakes and omelets are way oversized and taste excellent. Have to say one of the best places for breakfast in Monmouth County. We also went for lunch and it was good. The food is fresh and plentiful. But the breakfasts are superb@

EXCELLENT!! Best breakfast my family and I have had for a long time. We were there on New Year's and even though they were packed and we had to wait awhile it was worth it. The omelet my wife had was cooked to perfection and was huge. I had great pancakes and the coffee was very good. We had such a great breakfast that we returned for lunch the next day and it also was very good. Homemade soups were offered and the wrap were fresh and overstuffed. Next time we are in OG we will be sure to stop by.

For several years I have enjoyed delicious coffee, omelets, french toast, pancakes, muffins, cookies and much more at this simple but comfortable storefront cafe which offers both indoor and alfresco sidewalk dining.

The service is welcoming and friendly, portions are generous and prices are affordable. The attractive and relaxing ambiance of Ocean Grove’s downtown is enhanced many times over while savoring the consistently scrumptious cuisine created in Patty K's tiny but bustling kitchen.

In addition, I have enjoyed many tasty lunches including wraps, innovative entrée salads, sandwiches and grilled items that are prepared with the freshest ingredients.

Recently, Patty K's began serving dinner. Therefore, I visited Patty K’s with a few friends for dinner and we were all pleased with the friendly, informal atmosphere and the varied menu that offered imaginatively prepared specials including sea bass, pork chops and pasta. Deserts included a delicious key lime pie and a rich, moist chocolate cake. We all left Patty K’s with broad smiles and a desire to return soon!

Patty K is Patricia Kwiatkowski and the place has been here since 2003. You can eat outside as many do in this town or inside where it is more comfortable on a hot day. We chose inside. The menu is extensive, pancakes, french toast, waffle, eggs, omelets, etc. They have freshly made muffings daily. Today's choice was Morning Glory or Strawberry muffins. We had pretty basic choices for our first time here. I had eggs over easy with great home fries and my wife had French toast made with whole wheat bread. Both were delicious. A toasted strawberry muffin came with starwberry jam. Coffee was good and refills came without requesting. We will be back again to try their pancakes, which many of my neighbors were having. There are also a few blackboard specials for breakfast too.
