Keke's Breakfast Cafe Tampa Reviews
This was an amazing experience. We saw the reviews and were skeptical but were amazed by the experience. The food was definitely more than we anticipated. Everything was delicious. The servers were all absolutely pleasant. Our server Madison was amazing. She was extremely attentive and checked on us multiple times. Definitely this place is a must come by.
Madison my waitress was great, pleasant, attentive & efficient. I Irdered the Bacon Double Cheeseburger 🍔 ! It beats the fast food joints hands down! One of the best burgers I’ve had in ages! Burger was so good I forgot to take a picture before I ate half of it. Kettle chips are also great nice and crunchy and not as heavy as French fries.
This breakfast spot is the 'egg-cellent' choice for a pre-flight meal! 🥚 The Combo Breakfast is a 'stacked' favorite, with pancakes that are the 'biggest and the best' - and don't even get me started on the fresh fruit on top! You'll need a step ladder to tackle these pancakes. You can't go wrong ordering a Combo Breakfast. And yes, it's huge so plan on sharing. Eggs were cooked perfectly. No brown skin on eggs. Kudos to the cook. Biggest two stack I've ever seen. Who can say no to this? Marley, was the 'cream in our coffee,' providing top-notch service with a smile. She was our bubbly outgoing waitress who took care of us. Very professional and kind. She seated us as soon as we came in and pointed out items on the menu. And with Marley's friendly service, you'll feel like you're flying high! Did I mention the bottomless coffee? Get a cup or two or three....
This was our first time visiting Tampa and we came across this place. From the time we walked in it was a pleasant experience. Our waitress Dafne was extremely sweet and attentive. And the Manager Ashlee gave us background of the restaurant and she was pleasant as well. I loved my experience. We will be back!
Mayerlin was our server and she was so sweet. Anything we wanted was given instantly and with a smile. She had some great recommendations and we took her up on her suggestions. The Chicken and Waffles were crispy and delicious and my wife couldn’t believe the richness of the apple cinnamon waffles. If we weren’t travelers we would have breakfast here every weekend! Looking forward to visiting again when we are in the Tampa area!
We had such a great experience at this breakfast spot. The chicken and waffles were absolutely amazing perfectly crispy, flavorful, and cooked just right. It was one of those dishes you keep thinking about long after you leave. Marley was very sweet and super attentive throughout our visit. She made us feel genuinely welcomed and checked in on us just the right amount. Her service really elevated the whole experience. What also really impressed me was how clean everything was. The dining area was spotless and even the restrooms were incredibly well maintained, which says a lot about how much they care. We will definitely be back.
Marley was an excellent waitress — super friendly, attentive, and on point the whole time. The food was amazing. As a Muslim, I really appreciated that they offer turkey options for the bacon and sausage. The drinks were delicious too; we had the hot chocolate and it was perfect. My pancakes were huge and the blueberry glaze was superb. The grits? Great. My man had the chicken and waffles and said his meal was mouthwatering and cooked to perfection. Yummy! Next time you’re in Tampa, definitely visit this establishment. Highly recommend!
Amazing waffles and atmosphere! My family and I came here spontaneously and were pleasently surprised. The booths were tall and well spaced which gave a private atmosphere. Mayerlin was our waitress and friendly and attentive. I ordered Keke's combo and the Waffle's were the BEST I ever had! They were moist and fluffy and easy to swallow. My parents had similar comments about the pancakes but be warned that the pancakes are bigger than your head lol.
I had an outstanding experience thanks to my waiter musa who delivered exceptional service from start to finish. They were attentive without being intrusive, quick to anticipate what I needed, and always checked in at just the right moments. Their warm attitude and genuine professionalism made the meal feel special, and they handled every request with ease and a smile. It’s rare to encounter service that feels both efficient and truly caring, and my waiter absolutely exceeded expectations.
I had an exceptional experience thanks to our waiter musa,who offered truly warm and attentive service from start to finish. He greeted us with a friendly smile, checked on us at the perfect moments, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. His professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made the meal feel even more special. It’s rare to find someone who balances efficiency with genuine hospitality, and he did it effortlessly. I would gladly return knowing service like this is guaranteed.
Food was great. Mia was amazing, she was super attentive, kept giving my mother coffee refills and was SO sweet. I wish all servers were like this, even helped me with ordering as we were so indecisive! Love her, I hope I get her next time when I come back because I WILL be coming back. Thank you Mia!
Mia was a great server, she was very fast and attentive. I think she did excellent ! The only downside was a hair in my food so I didn’t eat a part of my food cause of the hair. I didn’t feel like waiting for them to cook my food again. So that was very frustrating and the home made potato’s are bland. The chicken tenders were burnt, the pancakes my bf got were pretty good. The waffles were mid.
We visited the restaurant on a Sunday afternoon and had such an amazing experience. The food was very fresh and tasty. Our table ordered both breakfast and lunch. The Florida pancakes were amazing and were a great portion with fresh fruit on top. The pancakes could even be split between two people considering size of the serving. Everyone else in the table enjoyed their food including the Italian Chicken Panini, the Florida French Toast, and the Chicken and Waffles. Our server, Rylee, was phenomenal. She was very attentive and was quick to bring out anything we needed. Rylee was very kind and provided exceptional customer service. The additional staff members that assisted with bringing out drinks and food items were also quick and very attentive. The overall summary out the experience was highly enjoyable and Rylee made visiting KeKe’s all that more memorable!
My First time at KeKe’s Breakfast Cafe was amazing and the service was great the food was fresh if you ever stop by just have Sonya take care of you. She was a great servant and she did an amazing job. at making my first time here at Kiki‘s delicious
Marley was amazing and attentive to our needs. We traveled from Dothan Alabama to Tampa and this should be on your list. What a gem the food was so amazing and the quality was better than expected
First time going to this place while in Tampa and it did not disappoint. Decided to try it based and the reviews. The service and the food were amazing. Our waitress was Madison and she was very friendly and attentive! A must try
Mayerlin was amazing from the moment we sat down. Super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out perfect without us even having to ask twice. The food was fresh, hot, and exactly what you want from a good breakfast spot, but honestly her service is what made the experience stand out. She kept a great vibe at the table and made us feel welcomed the whole time. Definitely coming back and asking for Mayerlin again. Great food, great service, great atmosphere.
