I met a friend here for a late breakfast, and it was absolutely perfect! Despite being busy, we were seated right away, which was impressive. I started with a pineapple mimosa—so refreshing—and ordered the pumpkin spice waffle. Let me tell you, it was absolutely delicious! I added fried eggs along with bacon, ham, and sausage, and everything was cooked to perfection. My friend ordered the French toast with eggs and bacon and enjoyed every bite. The food, service, and atmosphere were all top-notch. Highly recommend for breakfast or brunch!

Wake Up and Eat is hands down the best breakfast spot in Harrisburg, NC! From the moment I walked in, I felt the warm, welcoming vibe. I ordered the scrambled eggs with sausage, toast, and a side of grits, and let me tell you—every bite was perfection. The eggs were fluffy, the sausage was cooked just right, and the grits were creamy and flavorful. Even the toast was amazing—crispy and golden, just how I like it!The service was fast and friendly, and the portions were generous without being overwhelming. If you’re looking for a hearty, homemade breakfast that feels like a hug for your soul, this is the place to go. Wake Up and Eat is my new go-to breakfast spot, and I can’t wait to come back and try more of their menu. Highly recommend!

Sorry I ate the food before taking pictures. LOL The environment was great for families and enjoy your meal in peace. The owner José and his beautiful mother blessed us with their conversation and kindness. We will definitely be returning customers. FYI outdoor seating update with music and lights coming soon.

I decided to try something new by myself and this place is amazing! every single one of the staff is always busy but will always stop and ask if how is everything and is everything going well. despite staff always having to be on the move service is exceptionally fast. staff is very polite and welcoming. I ordered a pretty basic meal but it tasted great. 13 including the drink and refills. Great place!

I went into this place fully prepared to take good photos of my food, but then all I got was the menu. When the food came out, I demolished it. 10/10 perfect little breakfast spot with good service.
