"Let 's go point by point. Food: I ordered the traditional breakfast. Eggs, potatoes, bacon, toast. I passed on the toast which was a mistake as the rest was mostly inedible. The eggs were fine. I ordered them scrambled and what scraps I could retrieve from the potato mess was fine. The potatoes were Restaurant Depot frozen type. If they were made on site, then they were at least 8 years old if not older. Long story short it was literally just previously frozen, put in a huge pan, sat all day yesterday, put in the walk-in overnight, taken out and thrown on the griddle for 2 minutes variety. They were hard as rocks, gross and inedible. Nothing in them but dried up crusty potatoes. Here is the thing, potatoes are cheap and easy to cut up. Why would you serve frozen ****? I could make a weeks ' worth of home fries in about an hour and they would be epic. To top off the mess they mixed the scrambled eggs into the potatoes. Wait, what? I didn 't order a scrambler. That was just weird. The bacon was.........well see above. Surprisingly the bacon looked like a step over free breakfast at Holiday Inn Express type. Of course, they had it in the fridge and it got dried out and crusty. It appeared to be much like Potassium which can be a solid and a liquid at the same time. The Potassium Bacon was under cooked and over cooked at the same time. Anyways it was gross and inedible. The garnish(? was a mealy slice of watermelon and 3 sliced tomatoes. Why? I mean you can 't be bothered to cut up a few potatoes but can cut up a watermelon from the scratch and dent aisle. The tomato slices seemed fresh which was even more shocking. I didn 't eat them because.......well see above. No trust that anything should be consumed by humans. The bartender/waitress was super nice. When she asked if I wanted more coffee and I said no I 'm all set she looked at the uneaten food and asked if everything was OK. I told her to look at what was there, and it was obviously leftovers, she started to talk. She lost steam after about 3 words when she realized there was no justifying what they served as a $13 breakfast. She did adjust off 20% which she more than got back in the tip. I never punish a pleasant server for the owner 's BS. To sum it all up. Stop with the stupid garnishes nobody wants them anyway. Use the effort slicing all that random fruits and vegetables to slice fresh Yukon gold potatoes and make fresh home fries. You can find a recipe in any child 's cookbook. Cook the bacon when the order is placed or stop charging an extra $5 for something better served going straight into the trash bin. Oh yes, the coffee. Well, it was cheap restaurant variety and burnt tasting. 3 bucks for a mug (bigger than most places . I give them 3 stars for the coffee as it was just sort of the expectaion. Overall vibe is a 9 to 5er got bored at their job. They cashed in their 401k and opened their idea of a restaurant. They seem to have thrown a few things they saw on Pinterest on the menu, and they think they are quaint and cutting edge. The reality is they screwed up a simple breakfast. The Yelp app asked if I wanted to claim the business, so they don 't seem to even care about their reviews. I have a few pics on my phone, but I am way too lazy to upload them here. If they debate my characterization of the breakfast, I will post them."

Had to make a Yelp account to make this review! Great stuff here. The grapefruit juice was the perfect kick I needed in the morning. Friendly staff and beautiful interior. Bethany's hidden gem! Marvin K

We are heading to the beach today, but I needed to grab a bite to eat before we got there. We decided to stop by The Penguin and the food was amazing! Quick service and no issues at all. Highly recommend.

Well I would have loved to try the place being the proprietors invited me because I am the World's greatest bartender with a severe gluten allergy and this past Friday night they begged me to visit their establishment. However, it's closed while they vacation around Vermont drinking maple syrup

During the week, we stopped in Bethany and enjoyed breakfast at this local favorites. The ambiance was coastal and laid back. Our server was helpful on dishes and to go containers. We all got different items on the menu. I got with brisket was eggs which was ok. I enjoyed the lemonade I had. I want to try the pop tarts next time.

My first time visit. I'm so impressed! The servers were friendly and knew the menu without running to someone to get answers to our questions. They accommodated our GF diet effortlessly. The food is superb! I had the brie apple omelet. OMG! Heavenly!!! Their home fries were crispy on the outside and potato-ey inside, not greasy. Great breakfast! Ver carta

Good breakfast in the heart of Bethany Beach, enhanced this summer by really Excellent service from Taylor (go CNU! . Key: Get there at 8am, the place fills quickly and if you want a table and a parking space out front, make the effort to be there at 8am Cholesterol free egg beater option is available, just ask. (See Jen's veggie omelet pic below Chocolate chip pancakes are amazing! (See pic .

Came here for breakfast before heading out of town. Since it was a Sunday morning during Summer, we joined the waitlist that really picked up around 9:30-10am. Our waiter was incredibly friendly, and the service was smooth and quick. It was absolutely FREEZING in the diner, though. 5/6 of us went to go get or buy a cheap hoodie to wear from a nearby shop. Everything tasted fantastic. We started with the Nutella French toast which was so good. It was a shareable but I definitely did not want to share it! Then, my boyfriend and I split Andy's Breakfast Wrap with sausage. The wrap could maybe use some spice or a sauce of sorts, but the base was great with just some hot sauce. The potato's were...
