Half Day Cafe

My dad lives in Mason and I live in Northeast Ohio. Every time I visit him we have brunch at Half Day Cafe. The owner is usually on site. He and his staff are top notch - friendly, attentive and accommodating. The menu is creative and the food has never disappointed. I highly recommend stopping in for breakfast, brunch or lunch. There's something for everyone. You will not be disappointed. ❤️ On a side note, the owner also supports local/small businesses by purchasing their products - coffee, bread, etc. Half Day Cafe is a true gem!

Brunch with the ladies! Great service! Good food. I had the fig, gruyere, and bacon sandwich, which was delicious!! Served with fresh veggies, and chips. To drink I had hot green tea with lemon. I wish the water would have been hotter, but I'm sure they don't want anyone to get burned. This would be the reason I gave 4 stars for food. They do close at 2pm.

This has become an annual tradition for the Western and Southern Open and I can't imagine going anywhere else. The food is good and the coffee is soooo good. I've recently started ordering dirty chai's and they make a great one! It is always clean and the servers are very kind even when they are busy.

Stop by this lovely breakfast spot after a doctors appointment mishap…all I can say is please add 5 more stars🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟!! The food was delicious the coffee was delicious and the service was excellent!! When you can drink coffee without flavored creamer… oh it’s the bomb🥰 Thank you Mrs. Amanda for your excellent serving skills and recommendations! This place is a hidden jewel 💎 it has no business being tucked back in a small shopping plaza🤔🤷🏽‍♀️ But anyways I’ll be returning and suggesting to anyone who will listen❤️ God bless🙏🏾

One of the best breakfast places in Cincinnati! I've been there a few times before this morning and it has consistently been great - both food and service. The staff had always been happy and friendly. Today I had some coffee and the Half Day Ultimate Combo. The coffee is excellent. The combo had 2 eggs, which I chose fried over easy. I got the sausage patties - I think they make the sausage. It also came with a bowl of white cheddar grits, and 2 pieces of French Toast. I added a side of toast. I started with the grits. I could tell they were fresh and they were seasoned wonderfully for a breakfast dish. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The toast was good - great for sopping up the yolk and making a little egg sandwich with. The sausage was as awesome as it has been and what I expect to get. Not overly spicy but just the right amount of sage. It's not as fatty as most other breakfast sausages I've had, but the flavor and consistency is spot-on. A great addition to the little egg sandwich! I upgraded the French Toast to the Cherry Cheesecake Stuffed French Toast. What a great decision! The cherries were tart but were complimented by the sweet sauce. The French Toast was light and the cheesecake filling was just the right amount. Dusted with powdered sugar. It was sweet but wasn't too heavy. A nice little breakfast dessert. 🙂 Half Day Cafe is in my rotation of cream-of-the crop places to dine!

This place has a decent breakfast menu with tons of options. It's a pretty spacious place, and we had a very friendly and attentive server. I ordered the Greek omelette -- it was okay, exactly what you'd expect with no frills. The goetta was really enjoyable. I had a cappuccino, which was also just okay. Overall, no wow factors here, just pretty standard stuff. I give them 3.5/5, but I'll round up for the fast and good service.

First time there today and had a late breakfast. Place was really clean and bright. I ordered the combination with scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes and chocolate chips pancakes. My husband got a cheese and goetta omelette. Excellent coffee from Seven Hills Roasters and Earl Grey tea from Harney rounded out an excellent experience. Will be back to try other dishes.
