The food was amazing. This small breakfast place by the bay was by our campsite. The steak was so crispy. I got the chilaquiles and it was great. If you’re in door county, go there!

Morning Glory by the Bay is a breakfast restaurant in Sturgeon Bay serving savory morning plates and baked treats. Our kitchen prepares dishes like chilaquiles, corned beef hash, breakfast sandwiches on English muffins, and cherry waffles topped with cream. We operate out of a historic building on South 3rd Avenue near the waterfront. Guests dining with dogs can join us on our outdoor patio, where we put out water bowls for pets.

Cute breakfast place! Great service and food! We would come back again. Because we had our pet dog with us we sat outside. FYI- outdoor seating area is solely for pet owners. They brought out a water bowl for our pet which was super sweet. The food was great. Corned beef hash was crispy, salty, and everything was hot and fresh. The cherry waffle with cream was also great—fluffy and fresh. The cherries were nice and sweet but the cream wasn’t so it’s not something that’s gonna make you feel too guilty :) Our party of three would recommend.
Loved what I ordered (breakfast English muffin sandwich) for the meal. Looking forward to trying the chilaquiles next time. The coffee was surprisingly good. We got dessert to go: The raspberry filled donut was divine. We also liked the banana nut caramel filled cake. We visited at a busy time, but never felt rushed and didn't have to wait long for the table. We were able to take a walk to the waterfront and back during the short wait for a table.
We stopped in this morning for breakfast. The service and food were on point. We enjoyed siting on the patio. The western omelet was delicious. My wife enjoyed to sausage muffin with American potatoes. We loved the historic building!
Morning Glory by the Bay was a fantastic start to our day in Door County. The restaurant itself is small but comfortable, with a welcoming atmosphere and a great local vibe. We visited with a party of four and had the chance to sample a variety of breakfast offerings. The standout dish for me was the chilaquiles. It was packed with flavor and had just the right amount of heat without being overwhelming. The chicken was exceptionally well-seasoned, juicy, and tender, creating a unique and memorable breakfast experience. We also ordered the corned beef hash with scrambled eggs and hash browns. It was everything you want from an American breakfast classic: crispy, hearty, and comforting. The meat lovers omelet was absolutely massive and generously stuffed with bacon, sausage, and ham, then topped with American cheese. When it arrived, I honestly thought there was no chance I would finish it, but somehow I did. It was that good. The Swedish pancakes were another pleasant surprise. They were almost like a hybrid between a crepe and a traditional pancake, with a sweet flavor and fluffy texture that worked wonderfully. The crispy bacon paired nicely alongside them, and since you're in Door County, adding cherries on top felt almost mandatory. It elevated the dish to another level. The service was excellent throughout our meal. Our coffee and water glasses never sat empty, and there is just something about a fresh cup of diner coffee that always hits the spot. My only minor critique would be the hash browns. They were a bit dry and could have used a little more seasoning and perhaps some butter to make them really shine. That said, they were perfectly acceptable as served and certainly didn't detract from the overall experience. Overall, Morning Glory by the Bay delivered great food, attentive service, and a cozy atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast and would gladly recommend it to anyone visiting Door County.
