Brawley’s Restaurant

It gets crowded sometimes but that’s because it’s a great place to eat! I get steak and eggs for less than $ 7! Do wish they’d do over medium eggs a bit more though

I ate there for the second time today and it will be my last. The server was great but the cook needs help.
I ordered a typical breakfast of two eggs over medium, two sausage patties, «crispy» hash browns, rye toast. The eggs arrived with uncooked whites in the middle and the hashbrowns tasted stale.
So that got sent back and I could tell the cook sent me a message by cooking my new egg yolks hard. Message received and understood.

On 2÷20÷16, I encountered this place that my friends raved about. Once we were seated the waitress brought water to the table OMG the PLASTIC cup was cloudy, Grease was floating on top of my water made me want to VOMIT. I asked for a to go cup of water she said those cups are not allowed on The tables in the dining room but she did give me a straw to drink my GREASY CLOUDY WATER. I have no idea how the food taste. All 8 of us left went around the corner to Jerry Bobs, the food was great got my water with my meal in a to go cup. Everyone does not drink from plastic ware. For me the impression I got from Brawleys made me VOMIT

Soo… growing up, back when it was the wilmot location, this was a go-​to, family favorite. Came in today for lunch with my boyfriend, not a good choice on my part. I asked for lemon with my water. $ 0.35. I asked for mayo for my frech dip. $ 0.55. Wow. Not cool Brawleys.. Nickel and diming every one is not going to make happy customers.. If you need to raise your prices a bit. do so. Upcharging for every condiment is just plain tacky.

Surprisingly inexpensive and surprisingly tasty — I find that I prefer this to other bfast places.
We had OJ and Iced Tea, 2 eggs OM with white toast and hashbrowns, corned beef hash, a side of biscuits and grave, a mushroom omelet with hollandaise, and pancakes. Everything was above par for:
$ 18, tax included.
‘Nuff said. No, I don’t think the service is perfect, but look at how busy it is and look at the prices — the service isn’t going to be white glove. But they are pleasant and as fast as can be for humans — grant them that.
And for the love of God almight, please don’t tip them 50 cents because that’s 20% — give them at least a buck or two per person, or 20% if that’s more.

I absolutely adore this place. I never get bad service as packed and busy as they get and the food always comes out hot and delicious.
And their prices cannot be beat! Nowhere else can you feed a family of four a hearty breakfast under $ 20.
Thanks Brawley’s Team for being awesome!

Great to have an old fashioned breakfast and lunch place so close. Has great prices for the great food ! The servers are all nice ! You’ve got to try this wonderful place !

It took me a while to try out this new location, and now that I have I’m glad. It was awful. It’s a great location with spectacular views of the Catalina mountains, however once inside I instantly lost all serenity the mountains inspired. The place is garishly decorated with loud yellow booths and mismatched satellite table packed tightly throughout. I literally bumped elbows with the gentleman at the next table. It’s packed so full of people and servers clamoring plates and utensils that I could barely think straight. The noise is very excessive due to the tight quarters and sheer volume of people coming and going.
Our server was an older woman who was extremely condescending. I watched her respond to a nearby patron who asked for stronger coffee. Instead of trying to accommodate the request she argued with the person, rolled her eyes, shook her head in disgust and walked away. I confirmed the patrons complaint. The coffee was terrible. My companion labeled it coffee flavored water. I don’t care how inexpensive the food and beverages are. If it’s not drinkable, why bother. I didn’t drink it. I requested orange juice instead, which was equally as awful, possibly watered down. I can speak the same of the gravy that came with a biscuit. We emptied the pepper shaker in a feeble attempt to add flavor.
Both thumbs down on this one. Yuck, just yuck.

This place is disgusting. Had gone to the original location a few times and decided to go to the newer location.
If you like to pay someone to make boxed instant mashed potatoes and boxed Mac and cheese then you will love this.
It looked like a mess inside and I’m just praying I don’t get sick.

DOG FOOD!!! WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS PLACE??? They’re still is popular as ever but I can’t figure out for why?! Rude staff coupled with the worst chicken friend steak I have EVER eaten! It reminded me of a public school, frozen breaded «steakum». I’ve lived in Tucson for over 20 years and used to swear by Brawleys for their cheap, awesome food. NO LONGER!!! I will NEVER go back… there are plenty of other great breakfast places out there that haven’t lost their way.
Just Awful!

Cheap, bustling, greasy, and consistent. This is really how I sum up this place. If you’re looking to be wowed, don’t bother. It’s decent food, and even better prices. It’s always busy, and loud inside.

First time here in awhile, love the prices quality is OK.
I got the build your own with over easy eggs everything was okay besides the eggs they were not even cooked at all besides that everything was fine.

The old Brawley’s was great but very small, but the newly located Brawley’s is a bit larger and just as good! Good food, quickly prepared and served, and very nicely priced. The waitstaff is attentive and cheerful. Go there and have a good breakfast!

I decided to try the new Location today. If you want food at a low place… well…you came to the right place. The new location is bigger and there is a ton more room! They do struggle keeping the place clean. The floor was dirty and had food everywhere. They food your pay for what you get. Small portions and greasy! The service is prompt and friendly. They have a far better upgrade then the old building. If you have kids then this is cheap place to go!

Tucson Classic. Can’t beat a spot that delivers breakfast for two and tons of coffee for just over $ 12.
Today we ordered the Waffle & Egg (a large waffle, one egg, two links turkey sausage) and a DIY Brawley special with two eggs, hash browns, bacon, and wheat toast. Who cares if the waffle is served with too-​yellow margarine and amber colored corn syrup? It’s still delicious and served up quick.
The food is consistent, service friendly and brief, and the fodder for people-​watching is top-​notch. Gotta love the eastside.

Cheapest breakfast in Tucson (or possibly anywhere). Expect no frills, nothing fancy, and incredibly fast service. I’ve been in and out and full in less than 20 minutes for $ 5.00. That’s impressive.

Ate here on Mother’s Day and the food was great and so was the staff. They were attentive and the owner always pitched in to help the servers as well. It’s a good family business and I’m glad that I found this place.

Cheap food that is reminiscent of the free breakfast at a Holiday Inn Express. The prices were low as was the quality. The staff was also poorly trained even for a «diner» experience.

We used to come here when it was on Broadway. We loved the food and the prices. Even though it wasn’t up to par in looks. We went again last week after their move. It’s looks are still not up to par. Prices were still low which was nice. However, the quality in their food went completely down. It a as disgusting! Since when do omelets become full of water? Even the hash browns weren’t cooked the way that they were asked to be. Soo dissapointed. We will never go back there again. They went from a yummy restaurant to a disgrace. This restaurant is very pathetic.

Having once eaten at the former Wilmot location and being extremely under-​whelmed with the experience, we were still willing to give Brawley’s another try once they moved closer to our home. We’ve been back three times since.
The location on Pantano and Wrightstown is larger and less «dingy» … the parking lot is massive in this nearly-​dead strip mall, so no competing with shoppers. ;-) The service is fast, attentive, and friendly enough. The value for the money is terribly good. Previously the only «quick and cheap» breakfast option in the general area was Viv’s Café. While Viv’s is closer to home, we needed a change. And Brawley’s fits the bill nicely.
We’ve had their pancakes (nice and fluffy), a waffle w/​eggs, omelet with fresh mushrooms and fresh spinach w/​hollandaise, a chili size, corned beef hash, and the vegetarian benedict offering. My husband has also had pie and a milkshake. In every case, except the shake, we were pleasantly surprised at both the quality, speed of serving, flavor, and lack of grease (a down-​side with Viv’s).
While not gourmet or trendy, this is solid, quality and flavor for the money. And light on the flat-​top grease.

Cheap food. It’s inexpensive, too.
I was hoping that the crowd and the wait was indicative of some unexpected quality. This, however was not my experience. After being seated, we were never asked what we would like to drink. A question that remained unasked throughout our stay.
The food was disappointing, even for the price. American cheese on an omelette?
To be fair, I’m a picky eater. Clearly there are a number of satisfied customers, so my experience may not reflect your own. I have come to expect a certain baseline from my dining experience. Do not mistake that to mean that I am above standard diner fare. Omar’s Hi-​Way Chef at the TTT truck stop, for example, is fantastic in my book. Even Waffle House provided a satisfactory dining experience.
If price is your only concern, you would do well to give this location a try. If you have loftier expectations of your food, you would be well advised to consider your alternatives.
