Staten Island’s breakfast scene tends to split into two lanes: American diners serving eggs and pancakes, or Middle Eastern cafés serving Foul and Shakshooka. Beanie Café, at 2212 Victory Blvd, doesn’t pick a lane. Its breakfast and brunch menu runs both traditions side by side — which means the same table can order a Shakshooka Platter and a stack of Mixed Berry Pancakes without anyone compromising.
This guide is built specifically around that breakfast and brunch menu — what’s on it, what it costs, and how to plan a visit — sourced directly from Beanie’s own current menu file.
Egg Platters: The Morning Anchor
Eight egg platters make up the heart of Beanie’s breakfast menu, each built around eggs prepared with a specific ingredient:
- Shakshooka Platter ($17.99) — the most distinctive option on the menu, eggs poached in a spiced tomato base
- Basterma Platter ($17.99) — eggs with basterma, a cured, spiced beef common in Middle Eastern breakfast cooking
- Pastrami Platter ($17.99) — a more familiar deli-style pairing
- Cheese Omelette Platter ($16.99)
- Mushroom Platter ($16.99)
- Spinach Platter ($16.99)
- Potato Omelette Platter ($16.99)
- Avocado Platter ($15.99) — the lightest of the eight, and the lowest-priced
Every platter is a genuine anchor order — filling enough to justify a sit-down visit rather than a quick counter grab.
Pancakes, French Toast & Waffles
Six options make up Beanie’s sweeter breakfast lane, all priced at $14.50–$15.50:
- Dubai Chocolate Pancake ($15.50) — riding the viral pistachio-chocolate “Dubai chocolate” trend, reimagined as a pancake
- Cookie Butter Pancakes ($15.50)
- Mixed Berry Pancake ($15.50)
- Banana Pancake ($15.50)
- Fruit Toast ($15.50)
- Strawberry Nutella Waffle ($14.50) — the only waffle on the list, and the lowest-priced item in this category
For a table splitting plates, a Dubai Chocolate Pancake and a Strawberry Nutella Waffle down the middle covers both the trend-chasers and the classic-waffle crowd.
Croissant Breakfast Sandwiches
Two options serve the “I need to eat and go” crowd: the Turkey Bacon Croissant ($15.99) and the Turkey Sausage Croissant ($15.99). Both are the fastest breakfast order on the menu — a full sandwich rather than a made-to-order platter — which makes them the default recommendation for anyone on a tighter morning schedule. (Our back-to-school breakfast guide covers these in more depth for commuters and parents.)
Coffee Pairings for Every Breakfast Order
Breakfast at Beanie isn’t complete without matching it to the right drink. A Cortado ($4.95) or Americano ($3.99) is the classic pairing with an egg platter — enough caffeine without overwhelming a savory plate. Sweeter breakfast items pull better against a Sahlab ($5.99), Beanie’s traditional Middle Eastern warm milk drink (read our full guide to Sahlab), or a specialty latte like The Beanie Samoa Latte ($8.99), the café’s signature drink (see our Samoa Latte guide from July). For anyone ordering pancakes or waffles, a Vanilla Matcha ($7.99) or a frappuccino balances the sweetness rather than competing with it.
Weekend Brunch at Beanie
Because Beanie is open Friday and Saturday until 1:00 AM and every day from 8:00 AM, “brunch” here isn’t confined to a narrow late-morning window the way it is at many restaurants. Saturday and Sunday mornings are the natural brunch rush — egg platters and pancakes moving together, tables lingering longer than on a weekday. Groups can mix courses freely: platters for the savory eaters, pancakes and waffles for the sweet-toothed, and a shared order of French Fries ($5.99) or Chicken Nuggets with Fries ($10.99) if kids are along for the visit.

Beanie opens at 8:00 AM daily, and the full breakfast menu — egg platters, pancakes, waffles, and croissant sandwiches — is available from open.
Does Beanie Café serve breakfast all day?
Yes. Egg platters, pancakes, and croissant sandwiches are standing menu items, not limited to a short morning cutoff the way some diners restrict breakfast.
