"Surfin’ Up Breakfast & Lunch Since 1962"

About Us

Ellen’s Kitchen, a Neptune Beach tradition since 1962, began inside Silvers Pharmacy and has grown into a beloved family-owned diner known for its warm, welcoming atmosphere. Join us at the counter for a front-row seat to the action as we prepare hearty homemade breakfast and lunch favorites made with care. Signature dishes like Pat’s Special, Ellen’s Omelet, and our Malted Belgian Waffles have made us a local favorite. We proudly serve cold brew coffee and offer early bird specials—featuring our specialty omelets—available until 9 a.m. With pet-friendly outdoor seating, Ellen’s Kitchen is the perfect place to start your day in Neptune Beach. Call us at 904-372-4099 and come experience a true community classic.

We were headed to the Vicious Biscuit which is at the other end of the parking lot. My wife saw this place and we noticed what appeared to be the local older crowd so we knew it would be great. I had the Kelly’s (corn beef hash), eggs and home style potatoes. Wife had the Biscuit & Gravy w/ shredded hash browns. Both were amazing. The staff were great! A++

This is the best food! Everyone is so friendly, so full of fun and energy, especially the sweet server, Jillian. She talked to our son, William, about bringing his bicycle to Jax Beach and taking it home to Alexandria, VA on the train. Fun! We recommend you try Ellen's!
