REVIEW: Kimmie’s Coffee Cup (Fullerton, CA)

Country Style Patty & Eggs

Kimmie’s Coffee Cup of Fullerton (there are 2 more locations in Brea & Orange) is located in an off the beaten path locale which the average person would never find unless they live in the neighborhood or have access to Yelp.

However, if you’re lucky enough to find it, you’ll be stepping inside a tiny restaurant where you’ll instantly get the feel like you’ve just walked into someone’s home - like a doily loving grandma’s home, that is. Not that there’s any nothing wrong with that.

So, we ordered two dishes:

1. Country Style Patty & Eggs - Homemade patty, 2 eggs, red skin potatoes, toast or biscuits & non-existent gravy. ($8.45)
2. The Country Scramble - 3 eggs scrambled w/patty sausage, bell pepper, onion, redskin potatoes, cheese & country gravy ($7.95)

The first item, The Country Style Patty & Eggs, was highly recommended by the waitress who proudly declared “It’s what we’re famous for.” How can you resist a sale like that? And, I can see why. The sausage was made in house and imparted extraordinary flavors; yes, it was overcooked, but overall very satisfying.

The Country Scramble came with a nice cheese béchamel sauce equipped with a slight peppery kick that completely blanketed hashed up pieces of the sausage patty I mentioned in the first dish.

Both were exactly what you’d expect from an American breakfast café such as this, but prepared with more finesse than the average location.

As a side, we ordered bacon and requested that it be cooked extra crispy, which was exactly what we got. Thank God! Rarely do they make this properly and the cooks in the kitchen hit it on the nose. Excellent job, whoever you are back there!

This place is highly recommended for folks in the North OC area. In fact, if you end up at a local Denny’s for breakfast when Kimmie’s is a viable option, why the hell did you even read this review?
