About This Spot

Julie's Family Restaurant unfolds like a familiar embrace the moment you step through its door on Belknap Street. With its warm, wood-paneled walls and casual log cabin charm, it invites you to slow down and settle in at your own pace. The hum of steady conversation blends with the clink of coffee cups, creating an atmosphere that feels both lively and comfortably unhurried—a local haven where regulars and visitors alike find a spot to connect over hearty, home-style meals.

This is a place where breakfast lingers long into the day, and the kitchen’s rhythm responds thoughtfully to requests with a welcoming smile. You might find yourself savoring a plate of fluffy pancakes or a skillet overflowing with savory breakfast meats and eggs, each bite evoking a sense of uncomplicated satisfaction. The menu, generous and honest, reflects a time when diners gathered not just to eat but to enjoy the comforting simplicity of a meal shared.

The staff here carry a quiet pride in their work, moving deftly through the busy, full parking lot and packed tables without losing warmth or attention to detail. The service feels personal, with a knack for remembering favorites and making newcomers feel right at home. It’s evident that this is more than a place to fuel up—it’s a cornerstone of the community rhythm, a spot where human moments quietly unfold amid the clatter and chatter.

Whether you're dropping in for a rich cup of coffee at dawn or a satisfying plate after a long day, Julie’s offers an invitation to embrace a slower, more mindful kind of comfort. Here, food doesn’t just fill bellies; it creates small, meaningful pauses in the day—a reminder of the simple joy found in familiar tastes and friendly faces.

We love stopping here! I always get the shipwreck skillet and it never disappoints. He got the cheeseburger omelet and that was also amazing! The pancakes were sweet and fluffy. The staff was on it with the refills and so kind. The decor is so fun to look at and pricing is great for the amount of food you get! They are always busy with a full parking lot but yet there's always a place to be seated right away!

We were staying in town at the super 8 and Dori told us to come check this place out. She said she worked there weekends and that the food was amazing. She was right. My friend and I both ordered the eggs Benedict. Hands down the best eggs benny we have ever had. We cleaned our plates. The vibe is warm and homey. Very clean place. Coffee was rich and delicious. Our server Stephanie did an excellent job. She was super kind and pleasant. Great experience. Thank you!

First time here (January 2026) and we loved it. The portion size was fantastic and the food was delicious. We will definitely be back the next time we are in town.

Local spot in town. Steady stream of people while there for breakfast which is served all day. Has a log cabin feel with wood paneling & seating areas. Good menu of typical breakfast choices. I enjoyed biscuits & gravely with eggs. I asked for extra eggs which I said I have no problem paying accordingly for. Waitress was happy too fill request. Seat yourself when walking in.

I LOVE Julies. The place is beautiful inside. The food is fantastic. The staff works really hard and still kicks butt as a team. It takes awhile for the food to come out, but that's because everyone goes there to eat so the wait is worth it. Highly recommend. We come here every time we make a Duluth/Superior trip.

I was just introduced to this place, and I’m telling you right now, it’s the best spot in the Twin Ports. I know there are a few other good ones like the Duluth Grill, but this one stands above the rest. They have a full menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and every single thing is fresh, scratch made, and full of flavor. The open kitchen is one of my favorite parts because you can see everything happening, and it gives you confidence that they’re doing things right. The whole place has a warm maritime feel with a classy touch, and it truly feels like a homegrown spot that cares. I had the burger, and it was fantastic. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and never frozen. The breakfast is just as good, and I’ve had it a few times already. What really makes this place stand out is the way they do things differently. When you order a burger, you don’t have to choose between fries or onion rings, they give you both, plus coleslaw, as part of the meal. That’s just how they do it here. It doesn’t matter what time of day you stop in, there’s always something on the menu worth ordering. Everything I’ve tried has been great. This place is the real deal, and it’s my new go-to spot whenever I’m in Duluth.

I came here alone for breakfast the day after Christmas. It has a very comfortable feel with plenty of seating and very clean. The service was excellent. My waitress (the woman wearing a knee brace) kept my coffee filled and did a phenomenal job checking in but not too much. The food was really good and a good portion. I got the Shipwreck Scramble with an added egg and a coffee and it was under $20. Highly recommend the breakfast here!
