Jim's Restaurant on NW 39th and Council is pretty good. Also a hidden gem in OKC is Annie's Runway Cafe at Wiley Post Airport. You can eat while watching planes take off and land, it's pretty neat!

Jim's was a regular breakfast haunt back when I lived in Stonebridge Cove out near Lake Overholser. Pretty decent breakfast place. I also used to patronize a place called Roz's Diner which was on Rockwell across from Wiliey Post. It was a real throwback of a place without being too over-the-top kitchy. Great omelettes, superior hash browns and piping hot Cain's coffee. Last time I was in town (2 years ago) I visited another couple of old standby's from my days on NW Expressway - Classen Grill and Beverly's. Both seemed to be pretty much the same as they were back in 1990 (although I guess that can't be said anymore for Beverly's).

Thank you!

Did you know a new Java Daves and Brooklyn's Pizza will be opening on May between 164th and 178th street in a few months?

I hate breakfast. It gives me gas.

Oh GAWD the Smell!

I'm boring. Jimmy's Egg and IHOP are fine by me.

The Diner in Norman is pretty good too.

I'm a big fan of Sunday brunch, so I'd have to say La Baguette or Mimi's Cafe.

I've really been disappointed with La Baguette.

There Napoleons are really tough. You're not supposed to
need a saw to cut through them.

Classen Grill on the Circle - for the FRESH orange juice squeezed right on site, to the best french toast ever. Always love their specials.

501 Cafe in Edmond also has a great variety of breakfast/brunch foods.

I haven't been to La Baguette in a while, but their coffee and baguettes with the strawberry preserves are enough to keep me going back time and time again.

They closed for a short while for some renovation work. Unless they just closed in the past three weeks to a month, they're still going strong.

Actually, I wasn't wrong. I was there. It was closed.

There's quite a difference between closed and closed for business, as in gave up the ghost, quit business, closed down for good. Your earlier post insinuated that they had closed for business, which they have not.

Is it possible that you went on a Sunday afternoon/evening, when they are, in fact, closed?

Their regular operating hours are:

Mon - Thurs 10:30 a.m. - 9 p.m.
Fri - 10:30 a.m. - 10:00 p.m.
Sat - 8 a.m. - 10:00 p.m.
Sun - 9 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.

You are welcome to call and verify that they are not, nor have been closed. In fact, my earlier post where I said they had closed during renovations, was also incorrect. They never closed during renovations, just moved things around a bit.

Jimmy's Egg is good, but not when you're in a hurry. Every time I've been there, the service was good, but VERY slow.

For a quicker breakfast, there's the Donut Palace on Britton Rd, east of Penn, where the Big D's Bar-B-Q used to be. In addition to the standard donut offerings, they have apple fritters and cinnamon rolls that are bigger than a dinner plate. At 95 cents, that's a steal. They also have croissants filled with bacon & cheese or sausage & cheese. I had one with bacon & cheese last week. Good stuff.

I need to update my previous status...

I had breakfast this morning at Mimi's Cafe with a lovely group of TV folk....

The food was great, service was a bit slow...but they were busy. I'll go back...
