Love Bill's... I'm gonna find out the hours when I call and order my usual today and post them for everyone.
Great food service & atmosphere at good prices
Love everything food is always super good here. My fav to go spot
The service and food are great. Always stop for breakfast when I take the kids to.the doctor.
Very cheap. Standard breakfast food. Good location
Hands down best local breakfast spot! Best Bacon egg and cheese!!
Great spot. Food was prepared just as expected and the diner was very clean.
My favorite little no-frills diner in town. Somehow survived the rampant gentrification of the surrounding area, very family-oriented. Don't sleep on this hidden gem of Halsey Street.
Best breakfast 🍳 around
I wish I knew about this place before. The food was good and it wasn’t busy at all. The people were friendly.
First time here. The food is very good and cooked well. The workers are very nice
Classic oldschool NY diner. Breakfast was cooked perfectly -even the bacon. Service was fast, waitress was attentive, and great prices. (Cash only)
Quick and very tasty food! Perfect place for on the go or if you wanna sit down and have a hot meal!
Bill's diner is the best !!! I have eaten there for years the food is great and the service is amazing. I moved and will miss this awesome place.
Cheap, fast and good. It's a small joint, don't expect impeccable to go service so don't be a bougie douche...
Great place,tasty food, excellent staff...thank you for making my stomach happy..
Love this place! I usually have Sunday breakfast here with my family everything is delicious! Customer service A1!
Bill’s is exactly what you want when craving a diner ‘greasy spoon’ breakfast that actually not that greasy. Home fries are awesome.
Bill's has been Serving the Bushwick community for over 30+ years...He Opens @ 5am ...serving the best breakfast, In Brooklyn...
Came in for lunch and had a pastrami sandwich hot coffee and fries. Sandwich was very photogenic and tasty. I saw the waitress eating this marinated grilled chicken over rice so I think I have to go back to try that. Retro interior is a vibe.
Super yummy to eat at
The Bill's special omelette was OUT OF THIS WORLD! Look at that cheese drip!
Good service , excellent breakfast the coffee was awesome.

Love the corn muffins. Great Native breakfast place for sit-in or quick pick up.
This place is an institution. Want a bacon egg and cheese at 5:30am? Want a cheeseburger deluxe and a milkshake for $12? Yeah. It's that place. More likely than not the owner will be there taking orders and occasionally chipping the home fries. Basic. No frills. What you want, when you want it, with classic NYC diner vibes.
the service was very nice and the food very tasty at low prices. If I could, I would come back, but unfortunately I have to go back to Poland. hope to be back someday for your pastrami and steak sandwich
Such great food. I got a bacon egg and cheese on a cinnamon raisin bagel. Delicious. Very little grease with fresh ingredients. My boyfriend tried the French toast w/ eggs and bacon. Also a delight. Provide speedy service for on the go customers. Also they use Sanka coffee lol, a staple for in-home instant coffee.
Excellent diner. Stopped in for breakfast while my buddy was in town. Eggs were beautifully cooked, sausage was seared and crispy on the outside while still being juicy on the inside. Home fries were nicely seasoned, coffee was very tasty. All for an incredibly reasonable price. Waitress was very attentive and polite. Atmosphere was cozy for a diner, and though it’s nothing special, it’s still very comfortable
I walked in to get my phone order and was greeted with good ole hospitality...which doesn't happen often that EARLY in the morning. Nice way to send you back into "The Jungle" Food was Quick to order, which is important when on the Grind...
I love that this place is open very early, they do close early, so not a dinner spot. The food is great, they've clearly been doing this long enough that everything comes out quick, tasty, and cheap. Usually filled with construction workers, bartenders and other late night/early morning workers when I go, but great spot for friends and family.
The folks at Bill's Diner are fantastic! They're always warm and friendly, their service is prompt, and their food is always fresh and delicious. It's a great local Bushwick diner. Five stars.
Excellent food & good portions. Clean. Quick & friendly service. Great price. What more can you ask for?
Hands down the best omelets in the city. Friendly staff fresh ingredients they must go if you're in the area!
Always a great choice! Best local eats. Best Bacon Egg and Cheese

Surprisingly good, cheap breakfast. Clean spot, lovely service. Thanks!
Been coming here for years, nothing fancy. Staff during the week is friendly. But I find that Sunday’s is difficult to place phone orders.
This is a good, no frills neighborhood spot that I like to find. I worked in the area and had breakfast here two days in a row.
Bill restaurant is another of my favorite places where you can have breakfast with family, friends, or simply go to enjoy a delicious Cafe. The service is very nice and the food is delicious
Bills is great always and forever. They have been around for years and they never disappoint. 4 stars because they close way too early 😞
Good to see you can go for a walk and stop sit and eat breakfast as opposed to eating on the go...family owned very nice people
go for the breakfast. eggs, grits and sausage were phenomenal. not the burger(mistaken for bills burger in manhattan)
Food was great,coffee sucks….Watery Grits
Food is great, cheap, and everyone is super nice. Only real issue is they really like closing early. Tried to drop by today to get take out at 1:20 (on a Tuesday), the door was already locked. I tried calling ahead and no answer so I figured they were busy but I guess they're just done for the day. This is hardly the first time I've run into this problem.

The food and service were just ok. It is a good place if you want a meal and not to cook. It was cheap though!
I have eaten breakfast here a few times and it's not that bad lol. I mean the pancakes are yellow and I really dont know why but my hubby sure like em. Quick service. But I will only eat here if the place next door is full. Nothing special here. Same cook same lady who takes orders for years. Go for the scrambled with French fries you could never gone wrong with that choice.
The food is not great, very basic and sometimes disappointing. However the vibes are great and the servers and everyone who works here is very sweet
I came to bills for breakfast ordered typical breakfast scrambled eggs bacon with home fries comes with coffee $11.00 total . Food was good just as good as most diners I would say price was great ! Moving on Restaurant has no ambience music was loud and in Spanish only ! Kitchen is in the same dining area so you can hear the guys beating the egg batter really loud and annoying . Has no character old chairs brown tables 1970 tiles very depressing … etc definitely needs a little lift overall experience was ok if you live in this area and need a quick bite than perfect! I won’t be coming back only because I can get the same quality of food in a nicer environment with no noise better ambience and music in English somewhere else...

Prices were raised DRASTICALLY and staff was not attentive. It's not like how it used to be unfortunately. I've been in this area for 25 years and this was my favorite spot. Won't be coming back.
One star cause it was cheap, another cause it was fast. The food was boring as hell. Just a little more effort and it could be good but I didn't get the impression that anybody there gives a f*** so I'm not holding my breath. They didn't have milkshakes (which were on the menu) and they ran out of clean knives. Minor things but when you take it all into consideration you can tell the place isn't run well.

$8 for a cheeseburger and a milkshake seems like a good deal until you try the food. That type of American cheese that doesn't melt no matter how much you heat it, and I've never had a milkshake that bad in my life. There's no way it had any ice cream in it, just stirred up milk. Do yourself a favor just eat at the McDonald's down the street
