Sideboard Danville

Best Child-Friendly Restaurants in the Oakland, Berkeley, and the East Bay | Eater SF

"Antiques and modern bric-a-brac conjure a sense of entering grandma’s house at this homey cafe that offers a menu of eclectic comfort food to match. Superb salads, thoughtfully designed sandwiches (meatloaf shuns ketchup for a housemade hoisin aioli, for example), and rotating specials that can include pork quesadillas or shrimp enchiladas, all live harmoniously on the counter-adjacent chalkboard. There’s a kids menu but it’s not really necessary. The impossibly fluffiest and crispiest tater tots are a must no matter your age, as is dessert — peruse the pastry case for a take-home or in-house sweet. Seriously, it’s all good, and no wonder that a second location in Lafayette joined the Danville original in 2016." - Justine Jones
