Breadman’s - Chapel Hill

Chapel Hill staple. It's in a new location but the food is still the same! I have been going here for years. Some of my favorites are their broccoli casserole, onion rings, grilled chicken salad, BBQ sandwich, banana pudding. The house made ranch is awesome.

Breadman's is a wonderful long time tradition in Chapel Hill. This rating is influenced by memories as well as just acknowledging a good place to eat. It is one of very few remaining wonderful eateries from my college years in Chapel Hill of the sixties. Fortunately, we are still around to enjoy. This trip I only had a great, filling breakfast, but also got to bask in their new 2 years digs. When I asked how long since they moved, the waiter also told me they still had the same lead cook, so the good life goes on. The staff is friendly and pays attention. The clientele covers a college town gamut. This new place just needs some time to mellow into a simulacrum of the original on Rosemary St. 1930s or 40s, I think ? . I've been around so long and so many places have slipped away it's hard to keep their origins straight. Breadman's is a little farther from campus than it used to be, but well worth finding.

The food was hot and delicious. Our food came out quickly and hot. The portions were generous. Not to mention, the price was awesome. Couldn't even eat at a fast food restaurant for that price.

The onion rings here are the best in the area, perhaps even in the entire state. The service was attentive, the portions were generous, and the onion rings were absolutely perfect!

Sure, it can get a little crowded, but that’s a good sign of delicious food at reasonable prices. The place is well-managed, and you’ll notice many students working there, which adds to the lively atmosphere. If you're looking for a great spot for breakfast or lunch, this is definitely it. They close at 2:30 PM and open around 7:00 AM, so be sure to check it out if you’re in Chapel Hill!
