Lunch Break: A Berry Good Bite
Sampling dishes and diners in and around Miami County.
Just past the city park and tucked into Market Street lies one of Troy’s newer spots to grab a bite to eat. Although they’ve only been open for a few years, redBERRY is a bustling yet quaint breakfast and brunch location and the perfect place to eat, whether you want to spend time with friends or are dining alone on your lunch break.
Although the restaurant seems popular among Troy’s residents, the booming business is extremely quick with their service. If you really wanted to, you could order your meal, eat, pay, and leave within a half hour.
However, the atmosphere of redBERRY isn’t to be overlooked. The quaint little cafe has an extensive menu with tasty classics for breakfast, lunch, and other more creative plates. If you're looking to fuel your day, I’d suggest the fan favorite at any restaurant: two eggs with toast and potatoes. At redBERRY, this dish is called the Egg Classic. However, what sets this classic breakfast grub apart from the rest is its attention to detail and tasty, unique touches. The Egg Classic comes with two eggs cooked to perfection, just the way you like them. I always go for over medium for the toast-scooping potential. However, you might want to save your toast for the sweet and tasty redBERRY jam that can’t be beaten.
redBERRY’s is rooted in some of Troy’s own history. Because of our sister town's annual strawberry festival and love for strawberries, redBERRY’s name is an honor to the town it resides in. Not only is the name of the restaurant a play on words, but the delicious redBERRY jam is a yummy strawberry jam that leaves your mouth watering and your eyes misty with Summer nostalgia. That being said, everything on the Egg Classic plate is a perfect mix of classic and a little bit of spice. At the risk of being too literal, if you choose sausage over bacon, enjoy the unique touch of rosemary in every bite. The red potatoes are also packed full of flavor with crispy skins coated in seasonings.
The Egg Classic is not only the perfect protein-fueled meal to kickstart your day but also just one of the many delicious Items on the menu. Although you may be looking for a quick bite to eat, redBERRY is sure to have you coming back again and again with intriguing menu items like the Pancake Board, which is shareable among an army of friends, and the cast iron cinnamon roll, a weekend specialty and sweet treat.
redBERRY is a great little restaurant to dine in with friends or on your own, with a kind, speedy staff and warm and comforting home-sweet-home atmosphere that is sure to leave you feeling warm, fuzzy, and longing for summer for the rest of the day.
