3 months agoWe just came here this morning and our server was AMAZING so kind and attentive. I loved the vibe and decorations. The food was okay, pretty average I feel like it’s a good stop if you just want a traditional breakfast nearby (eggs,hash browns,pancakes, etc.) It seems like a consistent place to come with friends for food with good menu options. Not to mention LOTS of hot sauce options!! CASH ONLY

3 months agoThis place is such a vibe. A solid staple for whenever you're craving good food, good coffee and a no frills environment that makes you feel like you're dining in a time capsule from the 1960's and beyond. When you walk you're greeted by mirror paned walls speckled with random pieces of Philly nostalgia. Booths line one side while a counter lines the other and while the initial interpretation might leave you worried about having to wait, the place is quite spacious albeit narrow. Before even being seated, the waitress turned her head while walking us to the table and said, I'll get cha's wooder and coffee, k? Absolutely. Love it already. The menu is a mix blend of classics and imaginative spins. For our brunch we opted for "The Fishtown Scrapettizer" which is not your typical pork-centric scrapple. No, this scrapple is freaking delicious. Made with white fish and fried in a thick square, placed a top of thick sliced tomato with a zesty mayo-based sauce then topped with a fried egg and sliced pepperoncini. Definitely order this. Next we opted for the "Shopsins Scramble" which came with eggs scrambled with blue cheese, bacon, baby spinach and avocado + choice of toast and potatoes or hash browns. I opted for rye and hash and both were delicious. All in all a good option and the blue cheese was an interesting addition to eggs I've never had before. Next was the classic #2 (2 eggs + 2 pancakes.+ choice of meat. Option for cheddar, American or Cooper Sharp for the cheese). Love the option for Cooper sharp and the bacon was perfectly crispy. Overall a good dish. Have heard fantastic things about their buttermilk pancakes and while solid, not completely blown away (there's a clubhouse near by that still can't be beat when it comes to breakfast cakes). Note that prices fluctuate bc of eggs so what's listed on the menu isn't what you'll likely see reflected on your check. And speaking of, this place is a classic CASH ONLY (but they do have an ATM in the back). Sullimays. A sweet soulful spot that is a great place to grab breakfast or brunch with a group of good people.

3 months agoJust tried this place for the first time and loved our experience. The moment we walked in the servers let us know we could sit anywhere. Before I got my coat off we had waters, and fresh coffee at our table— amazing. And an extra touch, the server had a bag of toys for my ten month old, which kept her occupied the entire breakfast. Literally so sweet and made us feel welcomed instantly. Coffee was great, vibe was timeless old diner, menu had all the classics. We got the berries and cream French toast which looked stunning and tasted *chefs kiss*. Everything we ordered was delicious and came out within maybe 10 minutes of us ordering. The service was 100% what stood out. The two girls were so warm and kind and fun to talk to, and they were so sweet to my daughter (anyone who has brought their baby to a restaurant knows the side eyes that come with a child making an ounce of noise). We live in east falls and will definitely be taking the drive again to Sulimays.

7 months agoThe waitress was really kind and the place had a traditional old school diner feel. The hash browns and eggs were good, but the corn beef hash was lacking a little in flavor. Will be back!

7 months ago100/10 for food and service! Always warmly welcomed by staff and they have BY FAR the best breakfast (especially scrapple) in the city!

10 months agoI’ve been here before and loved it! This time not so much, it wasn’t busy when we arrived, the waitress seemed a little backed up— that’s okay! We got sat and she took a little to come over and took our whole order, I get it everyone gets side tracked sometimes! But she didn’t bring our drinks until the food came out. She didn’t check up and didn’t smile once. She wasn’t rude per se but didn’t seem like she wanted to be there. Our food came out and I had to send my food back because it was wrong, I asked for a side of biscuits and gravy and received a dry piece of bread with gravy the consistency of THICK gravy. I didn’t even touch it. I asked for my hash browns well done and they came out black to the point I could taste the char on them. My boyfriend went to use the salt and it was completely rusted. I get it, not every experience is like ours but it really did suck spending $80 dollars on a disappointing experience and meal.

3 years agoAwesome place for brunch! Waiters are efficient and attentive. The hash browns and seasoned potatoes were the starssss. I’ve never had such crispy hash browns and the seasoning on the seasoned taters were just right and pretty crispy. The French toast felt a little lacking, didn’t taste any of the salted caramel and the toast itself was kinda flavorless. Strawberries also tasted like they were previously frozen, not fresh. Egg dishes were all on point. No complaints. They also had a giant cart full of different types of hot sauce. Overall would definitely come back for brunch.
