"When it comes to true Manhattan Beach classics, Uncle Bill's is at the top of the list. The cozy patio out front is exactly what you'd expect from a seaside diner—giant beach umbrellas in non-matching colors, plastic lawn chairs, and old men wearing sports sunglasses like it's their job. It's brunch in its most informal sense, so don't expect craft cocktails and creative uses of avocado. You’re here for towering stacks of pancakes with a side order of waffles.
