Walnuts Cafe

Delicious omelette! The service was very good. Flexible is creating our own meal. Seemed like fresh ingredients. Very satisfied.

Sassy waitress
Great stone ground grits
Egg omelet with lots of cheese and bacon
Coffee was nice and not bitter
A great breakfast at a fair price
Totally enjoyed my breakfast
Place is pretty busy for an odd location in back of a Florida style shopping area.
Will go again every time I am in the area.

Such kind staff. So quaint and welcoming. The house salad was fabulous and so was the turkey sandwich! Tried a bite of the burger and fries definitely tasty. Would highly recommend!

Hidden gem with great food (try the low country crab Benedict or turkey, pear, Brie sandwich) and an owner who cares enough to strike up a conversation. Easy stop on the way out of Hilton Head if looking for great lunch with kids or without.

Don’t go if you havent already retired… you are not welcome!!! The food is amazing! BUT… I have never felt so unwelcome at a restaurant in my life. We (my husband and I) walked in around 6:30 on a Thursday evening and we were practically shunned throughout our service because we didn’t have a reservation. Or maybe it was because we are early-30’s and not part of the Sun City crowd who was also seated and seemed to receive excellent service and attention. Regardless, only 2 out of 15 tables were seated, so it wasn’t like we were intruding on their busy schedule. The service was terrible! We had to ask for a wine list and our wine glasses not only arrived dirty (which we didn’t complain about), but also were empty before dinner and never offered a refill. All while the staff stood behind the bar and blatantly talked about my husband. The chef did come out and conversate with all of the patrons… except us of course. When our meal was complete, the waitress offered to get our check 3 times before we finally just handed her our card for payment. When she returned with the receipt, she had already charged gratuity! Wth? For a party of 2? You pre-​charge gratuity? That wasn’t on the menu anywhere…? Ironically, what she doesn’t know is that although we may be younger than her «normal crowd» and treated like crap, we typically over-​tip… closer to 30%. Her loss. We won’t be back!!!

Excellent breakfast! The biscuit and sausage gravy was Everything!!! My family was also very pleased with their meals. If you’re in the area for breakfast, give them a try!

Delicious food! friendly staff :-)
Only slight issue was my food was cool (not exactly cold but close), but I was in a party of 4 so that may have been why.

Had a fantastic breakfast this morning. Had an omelette with ham, spinach and goat cheese. Server was funny and helpful too. Great spot.

Stopped here on our way out of HHI. The food looked great but they did not have their act together. They told us 15 – 20 minutes to wait and after 40 minutes, we left. I would have stuck it out but I feared the wait once seated. They had uncleared tables inside and guests looking for a waitress to pay. They were clearly under-​staffed and disorganized. I really wanted to try it but their clear inefficiency was too much. So to be fair, I never ate there so I can’t judge the food. But the experience was terrible.

We had breakfast here and the food and service both were amazing! We are a family of six and everyone loved their meal!

So it was our last chance to try a new breakfast spot in Bluffton before we say our final goodbyes to the low country…& Walnuts Café did not disappoint!
Very friendly staff! This is the type of place that will remember your name & your favorite dishes. The epitome of a true local café. This place is rather small but definitely bursting with personality.
We offered the shrimp n grits, huevos rancheros, & the almond crusted French toast. Yeah, we’re greedy… sue us lol! Everything was delicious but the French toast was exceptional wonderful! Definitely my top pick… so glad we got it!
Thank you Walnuts Café for a wonderful final breakfast in Bluffton!

Got over a little later than we expected for some shopping at the outlets and decided to grab a bite to eat before we started. What a pleasant surprise this little place turned out to be. My mom and I both got something off of the specials board and everything was great! They also made my daughter a special plate of chicken fingers and fries w/​vege. Our food was wonderful and the waitress was super nice! We would go back just for the service! Definitely recommend if you’re in the area and want a great bite to eat :)

We had Sunday brunch here and it was magnificent! Service was prompt and friendly! I had the eggs in a basket French toast style with Gouda cheese and a side of sausage and potatoes. I wish this place was close to me I would go all the time! I understand why it is number one best brunch in Bluffton! Husband had the strawberry cream cheese stuffed French toast with whipped cream and a side of sausage and was beyond stuffed! I had a bite and it was quite delicious but I couldn’t handle a whole plate of all the sweetness.

I work near Walnuts Café so I sometimes drop in for lunch. When I tell you there is something amazing that happens when you bite into the Signature Turkey Sandwich, please believe me! I highly recommend this place!

We ordered eggs, bacon, potatoes, and biscuits — excellent choice! The server was very friendly, and our food came out really quickly. I’d highly recommend Walnuts for breakfast!

DELICIOUS. QUALITY. CHARMING.
I take all of my family and friends here whenever they visit me. Hands down my favorite breakfast place in Bluffton! A MUST TRY! You’ll be hooked just like I am.

Everything was soooo good! Perfectly cooked, great portions, and unique spins on popular breakfast. I will definitely be back to this wonderful hidden gem! The pancakes and waffles are to die for! Like literally, if you take mine I will probably kill you and the person next to you.

Thanks to other Unilocal users we landed here. What a find! Sunday morning brunch menu was not tour run of the mill. In fact, nothing on this menu was. When we entered as a party of five they seated us immediately there was not a wait they went over the specials with us and once we all decided our food arrived in less than 10 minutes from ordering even though at that point there were about 30 other people in the restaurant.
One of our party members ordered the basic ham and eggs and he says they were outstanding there was fresh fruit on every place that was beautiful and tasty and in season
The second party member ordered lemon and blueberry pancakes with a homemade butter on top again outstanding.
The third party member ordered one of the house specials on the brunch menu which was a buttermilk fried chicken Benedict with sausage gravy and a poached egg it was amazing.
The fourth party member who is my husband is. He loves you could corn beef hash and on the menu they had a homemade corn beef hash and home fries with the punch bag he was floored and ate the entire serving which was larger than what we would have ever expected for any restaurant
And finally mine I ordered a brunch special which was cinnamon bun waffle with a Myers rum glass tiny they only equal the size of one waffle but let me tell you one was more than enough everyone at our table share the food and even then none of us finished our plates this place you must find you must go if you have more than 3 people are four people in your party it’s highly recommended to make reservations

This place is a hidden gem! I have to be honest, when I walked I was a a little leary that it would be over priced and the food be okay. To my amazement it all was above my imigination. Let’s start with our waitress Brittany she was very inviting and caring. She also said after those entrees you will be back. Yes Brittany we will be your service was outstanding.
Now let’s talk food, seafood hash, almond french toast and shrimp and Grits. All there is to say is that you all have to get here to experience this great atmosphere and food. WALNUTS YOU HAVE CRACKED THE CODE!

Great service. OK food. Horrible coffee.
for $ 2.00 a cup, the place serves coffee-​flavored hot water. I don’t understand how people rate this café as the best place.
Will I go back? No.
