Tired of grabbing breakfast at large chain restaurants? Fortunately, residents of Mercer, PA have a lot to choose from in the way of local mom-and-pop shops. The following breakfast places are sure to satisfy with lovingly cooked dishes and excellent service!

1. Corner Kitchen

When you’re loading up the whole family into your Ford Explorer’s airy passenger cabin, Corner Kitchen on 201 W. Venango Street is the ideal choice with its generous seating and large portion sizes. The menu features classic diner fare, including pancakes and French toast with your choice of bacon, ham, or sausage. With options like English muffins, bagels with cream cheese, mushrooms, and peanut butter, the add-on section is exceptional.

For a more traditional Pennsylvanian breakfast, try the fried mush, which goes great with maple syrup and can be served with your preferred meat. Though the menu is simple, Corner Kitchen has won over many diners with its homestyle cooking and charming staff.

2. Main Street Diner

Located in nearby Grove City on 1313 W. Main Street, Main Street Diner has a more upscale feel with especially decadent options. One of those options is the highly recommended malted waffle deluxe, lightly crisp on the outside and oh so soft on the inside, served with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup. Extra-hearty items come in the form of the gravy-topped country fried steak & eggs and sausage pancakes.

There’s also a terrific list of omelettes available, from the simple mushroom and cheese and meat lover’s to the vegetarian-friendly garden omelette, stuffed with tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, and your favorite cheese. As for sides, definitely try the home fries, a specialty dish comprised of in-house prepared Idaho potatoes that are perfectly boiled, then grilled.

3. Beans on Broad

Also located in Grove City, Beans on Broad can be found at 141 S. Broad Street, where they serve some of the best coffee and breakfast sandwiches in Mercer County. It’s no surprise, either, since the coffee beans are freshly roasted at the Howe Company just a short drive away. Whether you prefer Italian macchiatos, espressos, or lattes, their baristas take care of orders with a whole lot of care, so that you can enjoy the ideal cup of Joe.

Got a sweet tooth? Be sure to try their rich frozen blenders, which include flavors like caramel, strawberries & cream, and chai. As for the sandwiches, they’re made with top-quality bagels, creamy eggs, and a variety of cheeses. At two floors, the seating is plentiful, and the beautiful decor will have you feeling right at home.
