The Patio Cafe

I agree with Gloria S. on this place. Someone has left and now the menu has changed for the worse. It has become a tasteless lazy ass prep kitchen. I am no fool to how food is made in a prepared manner for freshness. I can look at what I am eating and can tell that it’s from a can, microwaved, frozen, or made fresh. It’s to bad The Patio had become cheap and decided to make a Chicken Pot Pie a disgrace and even my Caesar Salad was a complete joke. I seriously fought my urge to go in there and see what the hell was going on. Back to my Chicken Sad Pie. On the menu it says «made fresh daily». It was canned and quite obvious too with it’s bland taste and crappy canned vegetables. I didn’t even see any chicken pieces in the mess. I stirred it around trying to find some sort of goodness in it, but it was pure lazy ass sorry excuse for Chicken Pot Pie.
Another thing I noticed since I was tired of looking at my shitty meal I wasted 20 bucks on was the dirty ass carpet which needs to be steamed cleaned and the air ducts are in dire need of a cleaning. When you have black dust and mold on the outside of your air ducts you seriously need to clean them.
The lack of care I saw here is very disappointing because now I have limited places to go for a cheap breakfast in North Naples. I won’t be returning here. I have taste buds unlike some of the old people who choose to eat there. It reminded me of Hoots catering toward the older generation. Get your shit together and stop using the fucking microwave you cheap asses.

Great food, great prices. Took a while to get a table on a Sunday. Will definetly be back.

Delicious breakfast at The Patio. A very reasonably priced restaurant for Naples. My second time here — service was prompt and food delicious. Enjoyed the Bloody Mary also.
Great brunch spot!

Chicken pot pie was awesome. Prices weren’t bad. Complimentary water and bread given. Really good portions. Good family atmosphere, the staff was very nice and accommodated us well as we had three toddlers with us. Would recommend if you want that home cooked feel.

Something has changed, someone has left and the new likes microwaved cooking
Start wth shrimp cocktail that was frozen, washed in hot water but never chilled so I had my very first ever… warm shrimp.
All 6 of them. The cocktail sauce was not mixed right, now and then I get the shock of pure horseradish. Asked for another one, a little better but still doesn’t meet up to expectations.
Soup tasted canned.
Fish which is usually amazing and melts in your mouth is now microwaved, along with the frozen veggies that were chewy. Baked potato had been sitting around, brown inside, both were dry and barely hot.
It’s Saturday early dinner, this should not be happening. Our theory is that season is over and there is no need to buy lots of fresh food anymore, fearing waste?
Chef Ramsey would know, wish he was here.
Service good but uncertain if the server understood our requests, English is clearly not the first language.
Sadly, another one bites the dust in our book. $ 15 for a plate we can do better elsewhere.

Had a nice breakfast! The bacon waffles were delicious, and my boyfriend had grits and corned beef hash which he also enjoyed!

Marvelous food. Nice selection of down home meals. Truly a great family restaurant. I had liver with bacon and onions. It was delicious. There were three large pieces of liver that were perfectly cooked. Just a tinge of pink so that the liver was moist and not dried out. Bacon was crisp and onions cooked well but not overdone. You have a choice of sides, I got the baked potato with steamed veggies. Choice of desserts but no room after their generous entrée serving. I definitely plan to go back.

This place has great food at great prices! I have been here for breakfast and lunch several times and have been satisfied with food and staff every time!

So delicious and great prices!
My favorite was the full order of biscuits with sausage gravy ($ 5) definitely the best I’ve ever had. We also got the strawberry Belgian waffle which was also delicious, and not the super light crunchy conventional waffles you get in a hotel continental breakfast. We got the stuffed blueberry French toast with two scrambled eggs and bacon for $ 10. Awesome prices. Probably wouldn’t get that particular French toast, but only because the biscuits and sausage gravy and waffle were so yummy. They also have $ 4 bloody Mary’s and $ 3 mimosas. Comfy booths and nice interior that is well maintained.

Awesome food! Awesome service! There was a little wait but the bar seating was available right away. I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was great no complaints about this place at all! Oh and they make sure your coffee is full all the time ;)

My wife and me often go here for breakfast. The Patio is extremely efficiently and politely run. The Host manages a large breakfast crowd very tactfully. The Patio has both indoor and outdoor seating, both which are quite nice. They cook eggs perfectly, the fruit is freshly cut, blueberry pancakes with home made blueberry sauce are outstanding and the sausage accompanying the platters is just great. Waitstaff is extremely courteous and efficient. I highly recommend for a nice breakfast at competitive prices.

Definitely the kind of restaurant where you go when you can’t decide where to eat, and are never disappointed. Service is prompt, and very friendly. The menu has a wide variety of old standards, including plenty for the diet conscious. Great for any meal of the day, I have never had a meal I didn’t like here. Seems like the kind of place where people go often, and hang out to socialize. Plenty of food, and inexpensive.

This place was great
Reasonable prices, good food, and very friendly staff. We sat on the patio with our dig and have a leisurely lunch. I had the gyro meat and salad, and my dad had the hangover burger, which he loved. I’d definitely come back!

Don’t let the age of the dinner clientele turn you away. Seniors know a good bargain and good food and the Patio Café has both! Try the pork chops. 2 tender marinated chops with potato and veggies and a salad for $ 11.99 — yes please! Meatloaf is delicious as well. Their nightly dinner specials are a steal. And save room for the rice pudding!
Breakfast is also fantastic!
Come and enjoy the outdoor dining — it’s called the Patio Café after all!

Althoigh th3 food is great, it is literally 80 freakin degrees in there and they refused to turn the air down. Awesome. food on a budget but they really need to run the air its florida.

Three stars is about right for this establishment. The menu is similar to what you find at Mel’s Diner or Blueberry’s. A lot of breakfast and lunch selections. Nothing too much out of the ordinary. They have a liquor license so you can have a beer with your pancakes.
They have a nice outdoor area. Parking is a bit challenging but there’s another lot to the left of the restaurant.
When it’s crowded, it gets really loud, like cafeteria loud.
Nice to come to in the off season if you want a cheap decent meal. In season, I would avoid as it gets real crowded and very noisy.

Not recommended!
I rate restaurants on several things when I go to eat there… and the food is only 1 piece of it. I’ll start by saying the food is average, nothing really wrong with it, but not good enough for me to say I will go back.
My negative perception is with everything else. 1, the table we sat at had something on it. When we first day I thought it was just dirty, so they cleaned it… still dirty. My food came and I was still eating and looking at the table. It took me a while, but I noticed that whatever it was was beneath the glaze on the table. My picture may not show full details, but to me it looks like a pubic hair sitting on the table that was glazed over.
Beyond that, service was horrible. The place was packed, so I wasn’t sure if they were just busy. I realized that most of the people there were 60 years old or more, and all in groups of 4 or more. If you are a couple and young, they don’t seem to care if you are even there. I actually got some bad faces from some servers walking by.
Lastly, there’s no parking, so you might as well ride your bike, walk, or park on the grass.
My suggestion: don’t go.

Friday night we went out to eat dinner at this café, I got my one of my favorites of Ruben, I was eating it plus with sweet potato fries and I enjoyed it but what I did not know is that it would repeat on me at 1am big bad food poisoning
I had to go to the ER to get my fluids up because I was dehydrated
I WILL NOT EAT HERE AGAIN…

Was going to one of my favorite breakfast spots in Naples when I saw all the flags and banners saying «hey we are open»!! I have not had any other meal here other than my breakfast.
I ordered pretty standard breakfast food. Fried eggs, sausage patties, potatoes, and whole wheat toast. Service was fast and the food was served at the proper temp. The most interesting thing about my breakfast is I ordered my eggs over medium and by goodness they came out correct.
Mrs.K. ordered the waffle. It was a pecan filled Belgium style dish. I was given a bite to eat and it was one fine waffle. The waffle came out piping hot which is a big bonus to how fast they get the food out.
I look forward to coming back and trying out their lunch menu. I am also pleased that they are open on Sunday. Many of the mom and pops in Naples are closed on Sunday.

So this place is mediocre at best :-/​honestly the convenient location and reasonable prices is what would keep me coming back. So here is the breakdown:
–got seated immediately, friendly service. The hostess was also the waitress which I guess is not too bad considering it was pretty empty
–I ordered eggs Benedict florentine with the poached eggs on the medium side. They were a watery mess, definitely not cooked the way I expected. The hollandaise sauce was the worst I’ve ever had. I like a creamy explosion of flavor, this too again was watery. Not sure if they are just catering to their geriatric clientele.
— all was quiet until the senior crowd strolled in. What ppl mentioned before is completely true, it feels like they left their hearing aids at home. Talking so loud I could hear their whole racist conversation. «Hey bill, ya know any Mexicans!» (‘Murica)
— the breakfast potatoes were cooked to perfection which I guess is a plus.
Other than that, if you’re in the mood for delicious homemade breakfast I would recommend Joe’s Diner instead, but there may be other things on the patios menu that are better so it’s worth a shot.
