"Founded by local icon “Judy the Beauty” and boasting notables alums like Whoopi Goldberg, who has a namesake dish on the menu, this beloved South Park staple serves up giant buttermilk pancakes and memorable coffee cake. Sit outside on Saturdays and Sundays to be serenaded by a rotating schedule of live music." - Candice Woo
