I’m not from the area, I just stopped by with my family but the first things I noticed were the great dining atmosphere and the kind greetings from staff. Our waitress Dottie was very welcoming and treated us like family. Our meal was also delicious, it was my first time trying cream chipped beef and they were to die for Dottie made great recommendations! I’d definitely visit again

As a native of South Jersey love visiting when able. So great to come back and visit these fine family hometown breakfast stops. Extremely tasty, reasonable and great service.

The place was very clean, which stood out right away. The food was decent nothing to rave about, but not bad either. Service could have been more attentive; I sat at the counter and it took a while before anyone came over. The staff seemed friendlier when it was time to bring the check, so it didn’t feel as warm as I would’ve liked. Still, everyone’s experience is different. I’m not knocking the place, just giving my honest take. I’d go back, but that’s my two cents now you can decide for yourself.

Delicious,hot, and large breakfast plates! Mel’s Place serves a great breakfast perfect for starting your day out while at the shore!
The service was friendly and attentive and we were seated very quickly. The atmosphere was nice and cozy and we were grateful for our refills on hot tea!

Decent food. Sausage gravy was a bit bland in comparison so most other places. Coffee was pretty decent. Any place that sells tatertots for breakfast is a win. Not the best place on earth but decent.

What an amazing and cozy place! In the short time we stayed in Villas, we came here 3 times. The service was over the top great. From minute 1, everyone was super kind and treated us like old friends. Additionally, the food tasted really good and the prices were very affordable. We had different waiters but each one of them made our stay as pleasant as it can be. It is rare to find people that just seem to enjoy their work.
On the first day, we had lunch and the following days, we came for breakfast. They have a huge variety of items and the sizes are ideal if not too much. The eggs benedict are highly recommended.
The resraurant itself has a great atmosphere and it is super cozy. I also liked that it wasn’t too packed or crowded. I can’t wait to come back.

This is my second time at Mel’s with the new owners . The hostess wanted to put me directly in front of the door where ppl come in . She was reluctant to put me in another spot , saying”it’s just you ?” Once settled in my seat , a friendly waitress greeted me and proceeded to take my order .

I ordered something simple , scrambled eggs and bacon . When my order arrives I could see the bacon is overcooked , not freshly fried . It was hard , even the fat. Perhaps , it was simmering on the stove and reheated . I mean , most know what fried bacon out of a pan looks like . This wasn’t it . Next the eggs , fresh yes . However , they were not scrambled eggs. Instead, it was a plain egg omelette . Again, most know the difference between scrambled eggs and an omelette .

At my first visit at this new Mel’s, not remembering the details … I remember being disappointed then . Today , once again , disappointed in the food .

Fresh cooked bacon and 2 scrambled eggs (not a 2 egg plain omelette ) is what I asked for . That is not what I got .

1st time there (10/4/25) My husband loved the sausage gravy w/biscuits (he said its not as good as Mine..lol but its close) I had a skillet with ham,bacom,P&O, cheese potatoes It was VERY good I normally dont like places homefries/potatoes but Mels Place had some good ones. And both grandkids got pancakes and eggs and thoroughly enjoyed their breakfast. The waitress was an older woman and just fantastic.. oh and idk why but the hot coffee was delicious-Good quality coffee!

This establishment is what I call a good local breakfast restaurant. Nice and cozy atmosphere, extremely clean and tidy, friendly staff, good food, generous portions and reasonable prices.
We were lucky enough to find this gem on the first day of our short vacation and plan to return for breakfast every day.
