Gailey's Breakfast Cafe
220 E Walnut St, Springfield, MO
Crema's Take
“Gailey's is a warmly chaotic breakfast destination where energetic service and live music create an atmosphere that feels more like hanging out with friends than grabbing a meal. The food is reliably solid—traditional breakfast fare done well—but honestly, people return for the convivial energy, the rotating local art on the walls, and a server staff that treats regulars like family. Come hungry and ready to linger; this is a place built for long brunches and conversation, not quick coffee runs.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Unique dining experience in Springfield with a solid variety of fare. Good choice for breakfast in downtown location. Service was mildly friendly and we had to ask for top off for our coffees twice. Waited 20 min for meals on a Friday morning at 8:30, and food came out hot.…
Found this little breakfast stop near the square in downtown Springfield. Decent food - loved the arty atmosphere (there is local art for sale on the walls). From what I heard, the original Gailey's was a dinner with a pharmacy in the back. That part of the location is still…
