"Established in 1966, Bert’s Cafe has a following that’s generations old. Located near South Lake Tahoe’s “Wye” — the intersection of Highway 89 and U.S. Highway 50 on the west end of town — Bert’s Cafe is a classic old-school diner with green leather booth seating and an extensive menu of breakfast and lunch dishes. The hash browns are crispy. The eggs are cooked to order. The whipped cream towers on the hot chocolate are dotted with sprinkles. It’s hard to go wrong at Bert’s, which is why this little diner lives up to its reputation as one of the best brunch spots in South Lake Tahoe. But if the wait is too long, there’s always Ernie’s, another coffee house and diner, right across the street." - Julie Brown Davis, Daisy Barringer
