Comfortable setting for classic & creative takes on American breakfast, brunch & lunch dishes.

From the moment we walked in we sensed we were in a great place to eat. We were greeted by friendly, courteous associates who seated us and took our beverage orders. Our food orders were given while our beverages were being delivered. Worth noting Toastery only serves Lavazza coffee, my personal favorite!! Our meals were quickly prepared fresh and served hot. We had a Turkey club, a western omelette, and an order of pumpkin flapjacks. Each of us talked about how delicious the meals were sharing bites around the table. For me each meal had highlights: the pumpkin flapjacks were amazing with the perfect pumpkin flavor. The Turkey Club had great tasting turkey with crazy good bacon! The western omelette had a great balance of ham, onion, and green chilies with the perfect amount of melted American cheese. The atmosphere has a great team spirited vibe with each team member pitching in to keep everything flowing smoothly. From Brian the manager and to everyone working the serving floor everyone was very warm and friendly! This is a fantastic dining experience!! We loved it so much we’ve already visited a second time!!!

Who doesn’t like a good place for breakfast & brunch . After reading good reviews we were excited to give this place a try , drove all the way from Apex to fuquay. We love our Eggs up grill in apex but wanted to try this new place .
It was busy , not packed , and we were seated right away
The chairs looked very uncomfortable, solid metal , no cushions, very heavy to move and even more uncomfortable to sit on
Our server was okay , not welcoming and not friendly, we casually mentioned “it’s our first time here “ no response , her expressions were more like “ just get on with your order “
We placed our order Mediterranean omelette and build own omelette
Both omelettes were delicious! Very good quality and good portions
The breakfast potatoes, not good , tasted greasy and stale 🙁
My toast didn’t come buttered even though we asked for it . No butter was provided either
Person taking order and person who brought out the food were different
Our waitress never came back to check on us or even ask if food was okay, or if we needed anything or refill or something .
We had to flag down someone to ask for some salt and pepper as there wasn’t any on the table .
Our experience wasn’t all that great
In a nutshell:
Omelette delicious
Breakfast potatoes not good
Service just okay
Seating very uncomfortable

What sets this place apart?
1. I have only ordered here twice and check out my receipt! The customer service extends past their building and reaches you wherever you are.
2. The food is just sublime. Sometimes you order food and it is in complete shambles when you open it. Unappealing slop thrown in your dish to get you in and out as quickly as possible and on to the next customer. We have all had that experience before. Take a quick peak at my pictures and you can tell that the complete opposite is true here. My food looks so good it almost looks like the picture on the menu! It was absolutely delicious. I have a family of picky eaters and not one compliant. As stated previously this is the second time I have ordered here. The food was so good, that I forgot to take the pictures! In fact, I left a picture of the aftermath of one of my picky eaters to show how wonderful the food was.
3. It is worth the price. The portion size seems worth the price. I used my hand as a measurement to show that most of it was as big as the palm of a 6 foot army vet’s (That’s me) hand. I had to loosen a belt buckle when all was said and done.
If you took the time to sit through and read this entire review, you have to understand why this place is a must try. Absolutely worth it!

My family likes to support local businesses and we were excited to try FT. Arrived about 1:15. Place was about a third full. No hostess so a waitress said to sit where we wanted. First thing we noticed was how loud it was inside. Not the music but because the interior is like a warehouse with a metal roof and beams, all the table conversations by other patrons made it seem like you were at a football game.
Waitress was timely with taking drink order and then food order. Food took a very long time to arrive. When it did my wife’s order was wrong. On top of that her bacon was burnt as if it was cooked on the surface of the sun.
Club sandwich was fine, nothing special about it. My daughters French toast was undercooked and doughy. After eating our waitress was no where to be found. I had my credit card dangling on the edge of the table for 15 minutes and finally another waitress saw it and cashed us out.
We really wanted to like FT but it’s nowhere near as good as Eggs Up is just down the street. I realize that they are a new place and probably need to work out some kinks but overall it was just underwhelming.
Update February 2026. Raised to four stars. Second visit was much much better. Although we understand why they use a communal server method we aren’t fans. Brooke was nice and sweet though. Not big fans of having a rotating lineup of servers. Who does my tip go to?
Food was very very good. Bacon not burnt but just as it should be. Stuffed French toast had plenty of fruit and cooked properly. Three egg omelet looked more like a four egg and was absolutely stuffed with the meats I ordered. (The ketchup added in my photo was all me) Sausage patties were fine. The owner had replied to my original review asking us to come back and ask for him, we did not ask for him. I want my reviews to be honest and real, not skewed and this time they certainly earned four stars on their own. We will be back.

The food was very good! I did not get a photo but my partner ordered the seasonal tomato bisque and grilled cheese which was fantastic!!! I haven’t tried a tomato bisque that good in a long time.
The huevos rancheros were very good aswell, The servers are very friendly and helpful.
I will be coming back for sure!

We are getting loads of nice new restaurants right in our neighborhood! We grabbed the tastiest takeout breakfast from Famous Toastery: one included French toast, and the other, chocolate chip pancakes, both with sides of scrambled eggs with cheese and turkey sausage patties. The staff greeted us warmly, and the setup is super cute, clean, and welcoming. We will dine in next time!

My mother and I ate lunch here. My Mom had a BLT and I had a vegetarian wrap. We both had the cucumber salad as a side. It was good. Service was good and fairly quick. We both enjoyed our meals. Bathrooms clean and there is plenty of parking since this is located at a shopping center. The reason for the 3 stars is because I requested a gluten free wrap. They do offer gluten free options. They had a $3 upcharge in order to have a gluten free wrap. I know how much I pay at the grocery for a package of gluten free wraps and find this charge high.

Me and my girlfriend went to this location for the first time yesterday for brunch(3/8/26). We were told the inside wait time was 45mins and outside was immediate. We chose to sit outside because the weather has been nice. We sat down at our table of choice and waited for roughly 15/20 minutes without a single interaction from an employee, we were just left there lol. Another upset customer was waiting to pay her bill and stated to a manager that everyone around her hasn’t been served either. Long story short, from the time we arrived and sat down, got our drinks, then food, and finally asked to pay for our order, we were there for almost 2 hours! I’m highly disappointed with the service of the employees & servers working at this location. Every single employee at some point in time was more concerned about notifications on their phones, instead of the guests. Coming from someone who works in the customer service and restaurant industry, i understand all the ins and outs of the back of house and front of house. The food is always amazing and i definitely recommend it to anyone! But the service here was the absolute worst. I thought maybe it was because we sat outside patio but when i went inside to use the restroom and see the environment, many people were waiting to pay, or just had a look of frustration because they hadn’t been taken care of. I looked over to my right at the bar and 6 employees were all sitting/standing around wrapping silverware in napkins, but mostly just talking. Not ONE server had a clue of the frustration and lacking simple guest satisfaction. I’m a very honest person and i hope that the owner of this location can implement and improve some training for the employees. I’m pretty sure that this might be my first google review ever, i just felt the need to address this and hope someone can make a change & positive impact for this location!

So glad to have tried this place! Food was great & the service was fine. The ordering of and getting food was very quick, but after we got our food our waitress never came back to the table. Maybe because of the “everyone is your server” thing? I’m not super comfortable waving people down so that was the only downfall. Everyone was very nice though!
I had the gluten free stuffed French toast with Nutella & bananas & bacon on the side. No reaction at all! They do not have a GF menu but can make any pancakes, toast, or waffle dish GF. they also had omelet/egg options that were GF. Nothing else was marked though including the sides, so if you have an allergy double check.
My husband got the juevos rancheros and a waffle on the side (not GF) and really enjoyed it. Definitely worth trying out!

First time there, went after church. Expected a long wait , but we were lucky, got right in. Hostess was friendly as well as servers. Took our drink order right away while we looked over the menu, looked amazing. My husband ordered western omelette he liked it, breakfast potatoes looked a bit greasy but ok, I ordered avocado omelette. Looked good when it got there. But inside were a lot of brown avocado, servers were busy, didn’t come by, manager busy cleaning tables. I picked those pieces out hoping to talk to someone but, didn’t happen, had fruit , started eating and had a hair in it A server came by told her she smiled and said something about her critters wouldn’t mind it and took it away Got our check and left. Not sure we will go back. Prices were also a bit high, a cup of hot tea, $4.00.
Noons asked about our meal. Quick getting in and seated, taking order and food arrived fast but went downhill after that
