Bert's Café

Maybe it was because I was really hungry. Maybe it was because I read that they made their Hollandaise from scratch on the front of the menu. I don't know. But, this was one of my favorite breakfasts in a WHILE. There was a wait, but the process was efficient (plus, when there is a wait, then you know you are in the right place). We got counter seats. I had iced tea to drink, and my wife, who never orders many juices, had an orange juice, and it was DELICIOUS and PULP-Y. I didn't catch the name of our server, but it was one of those team service places, and their team was stellar. Someone was always there when we needed them, and everything came out perfectly. The wife got the huevos rancheros, and she loved it, although the large size of the portion means she only made a dent in it. I got the Frank's sausage Benedict, and it was incredible. I ordered extra Hollandaise, partly because I always do that anyway but also because of that "made from scratch" menu thing I read. I poured it on the hashbrowns and the plate was awesome. One thing I was surprised by was the fruit, which I usually don't care as much about. It was SO fresh and delicious. If I came there just for the fruit, I would have been happy. Place was energetic. Service was efficient. Everything was clean. Food was delicious. I suggest stopping by here if hungry in the morning and liking Hollandaise and a good sausage Benny. You can order what you want though. They have a lot of other things. I highly recommend, and see you there (the next time we are in South Tahoe)...

Great little homey place. Food was delicious! Drinks too. Kids had a milkshake and hot chocolate and both had lots of whipped cream which kids loved! Customer service was very good as well. The wait was very long, approx. 50 minutes, but it was worth the wait! We got this place reccomended to us by a local and we had to try, did not disappoint for sure.

Great interior for a classic diner. Service was a bit inattentive, but it was busy on a Saturday around brunch. Okay cheese blintz order. The blueberry compote wasn't the best, probably just the frozen fruit wasn't high quality. Best way to go was order sides: hashbrown, two eggs and hollandaise sause for $10 total is a deal. The homemade hollandaise is probably good when it's fresh, but the reheat in a little dish caused mine to split and become oily and curdled rather than creamy. Bad luck for me. GREAT hashbrown. I'd come back and get country gravy on top instead. Nice people.

Stopped by here while traveling by foot/bus. Had some luggage and they let me store it in a side room while I ate. The food was amazing and portions were huge!!! I ordered the Ranchero Burrito and biscuits and gravy and both were delicious. Orange juice is nice and pulpy!

Bert's is a staple in South Lake Tahoe, if you are looking for a great feed and a real genuine diner experience then you have to go to Bert's! The pancakes are awesome and their hashbrown is excellent. The wait can be a little long during peak hours but worth the wait. They also sell the Bert's mugs for $10 worth it!

Bert's Café...that's the spot! I was leaving the area, and back to Napa for me, but I had to eat something first and the inner voice in me whispered ...Bert's Café, not once but about 5 times! Well, I can take a hint, even if it's from myself, so off I went! I had a hankering for a grilled ham with jalapeño jack cheese and some chips, so that's exactly what I got and it was amazing! 5 stars and worth the stop! ☆☆☆☆☆

We love Bert’s! Great little brunch diner! The staff have always been so amazing to us. I ordered the biscuits and gravy (added side of bacon) and it was fabulous. Sadly Pepsi products only but otherwise all good! Highly recommended

This adorable roadside cafe transports you to a time when life was simpler. Classic breakfast favorites done very well, and warm friendly service that completes the charm. The Benedict’s, especially with the house made sausage are fabulous. You won’t be able to resist the waffles!

A five star because of the over all experience. Saw this one while I was staying at the Hilton and decided for us to drive down here to try because of the reviews. This local spot did not disappoint. There was a small wait, and it went by quick. There is always a wait. So be patient. This is a definition of a good ol' local country breakfast experience. The staff were great. Nice ladies. Our server was on point with answering all the questions. When I travel and try a new breakfast spot for the first time, chicken fried steak is my go to. Can I say, the chicken fried steak was freshly made. Meaning it's not one of those frozen ready made type. The gravy was perfect. I enjoyed it so much that I came back. The sever we had on our first visit recommended the pork chop for the next visit. So prior to leaving Tahoe, we came back and I tried it. It's my first time eating a pork chop in a very long time. It was good. But I prefer the chicken fried steak over it. The blueberry pancakes were also good. Found a new breakfast spot for when I come back. Winter.

Ate here this morning. I had the Yogi Blueberry and some OJ. Nothing spectacular but it did the job. However...my wife had the Cowgirl biscuits and gravy which was just off the charts amazing!!! Kids had pancakes and loved them. Service was awesome. Be aware they automatically add gratuity to parties of six or more. Typical diner ambiance. Super relaxed. The floor in the men's bathroom is very very very very sticky...

Bert's place did not disappoint! Food 11/10 Service 11/10 Vibes 11/10 Belly is full and ready to get on the road to go home.

First time here, friendly atmosphere and employees. Not a big place but busy. Food was good. Good breakfast place to visit in Tahoe. Service was great as well.

We love Bert's! Great little brunch diner! The staff have always been so amazing to us. I ordered the biscuits and gravy (added side of bacon) and it was fabulous. Sadly Pepsi products only but otherwise all good! Highly recommended !

Typical Country Diner where all the locals meet for breakfast or Lunch. Good breakfast menu. They make mostly everything fresh in house. They serve eggs any style, potatoes any style, sausage, ham, pancakes, crepes, black coffee only (don't expect lattés), fresh squeezed Orange juice and more. All the waitresses move fast and are super friendly. The service overall is excellent. The ambiance is casual, nostalgic and friendly. The noise level is moderate to loud. I ordered scrambled eggs, hash brown with raisin toast. And on the side a banana crepe topped with whip cream. Everything tasted really good. Perfect place for a quick breakfast to fuel up before going on your hike or before starting your day. I recommend trying Bert's Café.

Great Corned Beef Hash! Great friendly service. Really good French Toast too. Highly recommended.

Cute cozy diner! The place has been around for years and you can tell. The space is very small so the wait gets very very long. Definitely wouldn't recommend for large groups. The menu includes a plethora of omlettes, sweet treats, Benedict's, and even some south of the border specialties. The waitresses are very nice. Our coffees and waters were always full. Prices are a little much ($20-$25 a meal) but portions are large Overall, I enjoyed eating at a historic town staple but wasn't overly impressed with any aspect of the meal.

Our fav breakfast stop when in town. Small Amer diner. Packed on a summer weekday morning ~30mins wait around 10am. Prices are reasonable to the area. Quick service & friendly waitress.

Bert's is a classic SLT gem. Nestled next to an unassuming gas station, this traditional diner is exactly what you're looking for during breakfast or brunch. The egg options are cool because you can do an omelette or a frittata- both of which highly customizable. The service is beyond friendly, but also genuine and down to Earth. A huge, HUGE plus is the pricing. It's not jacked up like other SLT restaurants and you do get a great portion for the value. Furthermore, they don't force you to get carb-loaded sides like toast and home fries, you can sub for fruit or cottage cheese. The servers were really nice in accommodating our keto dietary needs. If you're someone who can pretty much eat whatever you want, you'll be happy with Bert's. Lots of meat, carb, and traditional breakfast options. Four stars (not five) because ... 1) The booth cushions need a replacement - BADLY! It's like sitting in vinyl covered wood from years of happy butts squishing the foam down. It's a good sign that so many people love this place, but not super comfortable on the back. They also have one wonky stool at the bar that should be fixed asap. 2) The seasoning game needs to be a little bit better. Our eggs were pretty bland, needed salt and pepper. I imagine this is done intentionally by the cooks because a lot of seniors come in and I'm sure heavily salting/seasoning the food from the kitchen could become troublesome for those watching their sodium intake. The thing is -- the food is still bland, so as much as you "can" do it yourself at the table, it'd be nice to have brekkie eggs that "SLAP!" Not eggs that you could probably make at home. You know what I mean? 3) The coffee is very watered down, not super strong like you'd expect from a diner. We're always surprised as to how "not-great" the coffee is ... so much so that we stopped ordering it even though we love a nice, hot cuppa joe in the AM. 4) Their soda machine either needs more carbonation or more syrup-to-water ratio. It's hard to tell what the exact issue is, but as an absolute Pepsi LOVER, this fountain soda highly misses the mark. Hope this review helps, I would recommend checking out Bert's at least once - especially if you're coming from Heidi's or Red Hut. You might be surprised!

It's a very popular classic American diner here in South Lake Tahoe. You have a bar area that directly faces the kitchen, and booths behind, almost all with windows to enjoy the beautiful trees. Somewhat limited parking right next to the restaurant but there is an overflow lot. I was seated within 10 minutes on a Sunday afternoon around 11:00 AM (only a party of 1). If you bring a larger party, I would expect a long wait. Waitresses were very friendly and quick to serve, filling up my coffee and water without me having to wave them down. Half order of biscuits and country gravy: bits of sausage inside a house made gravy along with butter biscuits. This isn't like the low quality white gravy that some low quality diners use, this is the good stuff. If you like gravy in the morning, you should order a size. I also ordered hash browns and corned beef has. They were good, but nothing particularly notable. I would 100% come back here and try some more items, maybe the eggs Benedict's. If you're looking for a great American breakfast, this is the place to be.

We went around 10 o'clock and had to wait about 30 minutes... the place was packed, and for good reason. The server was attentive and friendly, and the service overall was excellent. The place is cute, like from a movie, and of course, the food was delicious, too. I had the fried steak with gravy, and the gravy had just the right amount of guilt! The pancake was fluffy and generously portioned, very tasty. We enjoyed our brunch and will come back when we visit Lake Tahoe again.

Came across this lovely brunch place because of the high Yelp ratings. I ordered Frank's Sausage Patty, which is perfectly cooked with a crispy surface and the taste is just right, yum. I also got hash browns and 2 over-medium eggs. Finally, the meal also comes with toast, making the portions pretty good. I was there on a Sunday morning and it wasn't too crazy, only waited for around 20 minutes.

I was visiting glorious Lake Tahoe and was determined to find the BEST BREAKFAST and I am convinced I did at Bert's cafe. It's a cute spot with yellow coffee mugs. The coffee was good and not watered down/light. They offer fresh coffee creamer. Our waitress Jaimie offered great service and advice about where to visit (nature wise too) in Lake Tahoe. The staff in general were Toddler friendly and gave Brave a warm welcome.

Came in early around 7:30am and was completely surprised to beat the line. This place is quite popular and for good reason. I sat at the counter because I was by myself. My order was taken promptly and I think the short order chief was eavesdropping because my food came out super quick. The hot chocolate is from the machine but the whipped cream and sprinkles make for a pretty sweet mix. I dig right into it because the hot chocolate will eat it up if you don't. Not wanting to spoil my appetite I down some cream and then the food arrived. The chicken fried steak had gravy and sausage piled on. The sausage was salty and a good mix with the meat. Definitely recommend coming in here if you get the chance. Lots of nice people and kind staff. Very excellent vibe.

Bert's is a great local breakfast place in South Lake Tahoe near "The Y". Post Labor Day weekend, the wait was only 10-15 min and we were served drinks and coffee right away by the sweet young lady who seated us! The inside has an old Tahoe, warm feel to the place with lacquered wood and has about 12 tables and a counter seating area for their guests. The menu cover boasted all the homemade items so I tried a couple of them. They mentioned homemade batter for their pancakes so I had to try at least one! I usually shy away from ordering pancakes out as most places use a premade pancake mix which is not great.... Bert's blueberry pancakes were delicious and had HUGE fresh blueberries inside! Their sausage gravy was another homemade item and absolutely delicious! Kristen took great care of our table and stopped by often with coffee and water refills. I would definitely recommend this place if visiting Tahoe! Oh...! As we were finishing last bites, I noticed a strawberry shake being delivered. The shake was served in an old school long glass with the "extra" also being served in the long metal cup just like places regularly did in my childhood. We were waaaay too full to order one, but I'd considered coming back just for that!

Classic diner vibes, friendly service, delicious food. We had the Vegaterian Eggs benedict with hashbrowns and the combo breakfast with biscuits and gravy, eggs, and bacon. Large portions with great flavor. Highly recommend!

Pancakes were delicious, fluffy and perfection. I would rate 5/5 but the sausage brought the ratings down.

A great breakfast spot, worth the wait. A great diner vibe, helpful staff, and wonderful food. A great variety of diner staples and Mexican. I would recommend the chilaquiles.

Be prepared for a long wait of at least 60 min if you go there after 10am for their brunch, but the wait is worth it. They are a small diner with limited seatings. They are known for making most of their items with homemade ingredients. And their customer services are great! Their house coffee and freshly squeezed OJ were amazing. They kept refilling our coffee mug and making us happy. The OJ was definitely freshly squeezed and it's only $5 for the largest size. Their strawberry pancakes were fluffy and delicious. Their Crepes Benedict was decent and savory, but we didn't like their benedict sauce on top of the crepes. Their cream of mushroom soup was just ok and very creamy. Their corn beef hash with scrambled eggs, and the frank sausage patty with scrambled eggs were just ok. Overall, their pancakes, house coffee and OJ were excellent enough to bring us back here next time. We will definitely try their other items on the menu.

Ok back again !! Had a teamsters conference and on our way home had to stop at Bert's!! This place never disappoints!! 15 min wait worth it!! Food was excellent! Service!! Great! Nice to see the people that been working there a while!! Ambiance is great for a diner spot!! Triple d needs to come out and do a tv spot on this place!! If you are ever even close to this area!!! Only come here !!' Best breakfast and lunch spot in south Tahoe!!! Check out scones pics you will see!!!

My husband stated "this might be my favorite restaurant in the entire world", as he took another bite of his delicious chicken friend steak. The chicken fried steak was homemade and made from someone who loved to cook. I opted for the Brunch burrito. It was delicious with their own homemade pico salsa on top. It was perfection. The service was on point. We were seated at the bar counter and nothing was missed. Great breakfast spot. We will be back

We were meetings some friends in South Lake Tahoe after noon and they wanted a "good cafe". I hit Yelp and found Bert's along the route I figured they'd be coming in. I saw where it could be crowded, but we decided to go there. Got there a bit after noon. No wait and they sat us right down. Once our friends arrived, we ordered both breakfast and lunch items. The food came quickly and was hot. Decent portions and friendly service. We stayed there until they closed at 2:00 without bugging us since there were open tables. It isn't a big place, which is probably why it can get busy, and has the feel of a good old-fashioned diner. Next time we are in South Lake, it'll definitely be an option for eating!

We finally made it to Bert's cafe this past Saturday for breakfast! We have visited a number of times during the past few years however there were always too many guests waiting outside and no parking to be found so we left. This past Saturday we were able to find parking right in front. The wait was about 40 minutes however we didn't mind waiting. Hubby and I both ordered the vegetarian omelette with hash brown and English muffins. I also ordered a large fresh squeezed orange juice which was perfect! A side order of bacon was also ordered to take home with us. The service and welcome greeting was friendly and appreciated. Our plates came out fairly quickly and overall we agree we are going to return again and try the lunch menu next time.

Bert's is the perfect place to stop in Tahoe for breakfast. They are cute and cozy and they have places to sit down at tables that sit 4 comfortably and they have a counter you can also sit at. My parents have a cabin in Tahoe and this is where we stop every time. The staff are always very friendly and although they do get super busy, it's worth the wait. The hot cocoa is a must in my opinion! It gives all the nostalgia vibes and the cups that it comes in you can purchase for $10 and they're super thick and nice. Today I got the Chilaquiles and it was delicious! My husband is Hispanic so I get Chilaquiles often and this one is definitely one of my favorites. My mom got the breakfast sandwich which with bacon and she also gives it a 5/5. I will say I think maybe the potatoes don't come with salt and pepper already on them just like the eggs so you need to add your own, but I know a lot of people prefer that. their batter is made in-house so I definitely suggest you get their pancakes or waffles! But honestly almost anything you get here is amazing and the menu lets you know everything that's made in-house.

Stopped here for breakfast while visiting Tahoe because of all the stars. Here is my review of Bert's. This is a solid 3 star breakfast restaurant. The food was good and overall pretty solid place. The service by the server was great and she was warm and friendly and welcoming. The reason for not Better stars. Upon check-in the young man and young lady are a bit too firm and not as welcoming as the rest of the staff. Additionally the seating takes a bit longer than it should and could be more efficient. Additionally soon after we left we both had some stomach issues. Only thing we can think of is that they don't use filtered water or something in the biscuits and gravy. That's the only thing we both are. While I had the pancakes and I had some of my guests biscuits and gravy and the gravy tasted a different than we are used to, almost like cheesy. So while the food was good, not sure I would eat here again due to my stomach issues soon so the meal.

Generous portions and great service from Kristen from SC!!! When here, I make sure to stop in and have the best breakfast in town!

Date: Tuesday, August 13th, 2024 Party of: 2 Meal: Breakfast / Lunch / Brunch Takeaway Time Order Placed: around 12:45pm Time Ready: about 20 mins later *Egg Breakfast: 2 Large Eggs Over Easy, Hash Browns, Wheat Toast, Homemade Corned Beef Hash *8" Pancakes: Short Stack, 2, add Blueberry Compote and Whipped Cream *Side Bacon, 4 *Salad & 1/2 Sandwich: House Salad with Ranch - no croutons, no olives, Turkey Sandwich Since we've been in Tahoe weekly and eating mainly fast food, I wanted something else. And from a place I've never tried before. After doing a yelp search, I decided on Bert's. I called in the takeout order and the hubby went to pick it up. He didn't get an itemized receipt, but total before tip was $52.04. For some reason, I didn't read the salad / soup plus half sando description correctly. I thought I could pick any salad or sandwich. But you only get the basic selections. I originally wanted their broccoli soup, but after I placed our order, they called me back (I guess they have caller ID since I didn't leave my number) and said they were out. I just got the green salad instead since there was no other choice. The salad was good. Kinda small. More like a 1/2 salad. The sandwich was fine, but dry. I liked the sourdough, but it needed more than just the little bit of mayo they put on one side of the sandwich. Luckily, we had yellow mustard at the house. I actually added a piece of bacon from our side as well to make it a little more substantial. The hubs suggested we get the pancakes to share. It ended up being a great idea since they were delish. The berry compote and whipped cream went with them nicely. I didn't try any of his breakfast, but he seemed to enjoy everything. A good spot to grab brunch. Definitely recommend their pancakes and compotes since they are all made in house. REVIEW #3527

Our breakfast was fantastic, the staff was very friendly, and the service was great. I wish we would have known about this place years ago.

I wanted to leave more stars but our experience was not what I was expecting. The hostess tried to be helpful but could have been a bit more welcoming and attentive. It took forever to get a table like an hour and then once we were seated our waitress was so friendly and friendly. We ordered the biscuits and gravy but the biscuits were not as good as I thought it would be and the gravy had a good flavor but had a cheesy taste to me. The eggs and bacon were good but a bit cold. The coffee was good and flavorful. The restaurant had an old cabin look and felt cozy. I'm not sure if we would return but I'm sure there's other restaurants I would rather try or return too.

92-year old Dad wanted ham & eggs for breakfast. A quick Yelp search and we ended up at Bert's. Based on Yelp reviews we knew it would be a long wait, but it was about 15-20 minutes sitting outside. The large menu includes everything from eggs to burgers to sandwiches to salads. Inside looks just like a classic homey mountain diner that has been unchanged for decades. For sure this is a place the locals frequent, and it's definitely not a tourist trap like you'll find closer to Stateline. Every single staff person was exceptionally nice, from the hostess seating us to the manager checking up on us. The waitresses were young and cheerful, and our coffee cups were topped off more times than I can remember. The food is standard breakfast fare and filling. Our eggs were made to order, bacon crispy, French toast perfect, and the freshly made corned beef had very tasty. Reviews are on the money. Bert's Café is the place to go. We are going to be regulars whenever we come to South Lake Tahoe.

Not going to spend too much time on this review. Little restaurant after the Y, playing off of the Bert and Ernie thing (Ernie across the street). The coffee was very watered down. My Eggs Benedict Spinach & Tomato lacking. The eggs were over done(no runny yolk, the hollandaise sauce was overdone and congealed, and the potatoes were burnt and undercooked (heat was too high). *Service was good*

After reading all the reviews, I thought OK they say they're super friendly and the food is really good so I'm gonna finally give them a try. I stood at the podium for a few minutes after walking in. After she took my name, I waited and then another couple walked in. Two tables were cleared, and then I was seated into a table that was kind of in the corner. And the couple that came in after Me was seated at the nice window seat. I wonder why? So I listened around to hear if I was going to hear that friendly service, friendly staff stuff that I read all the reviews. I don't know. I just didn't hear it. I looked at the menu and I decided that I was going to have the cowboy that consisted of biscuits and gravy home fried potatoes, two eggs and sausage as you can see in the picture that I posted. It was not that great presentation. I ordered the sausage kind and the eggs , when brought to the table, the seem to be broke already. It was all under the gravy on top of the biscuits. The potatoes were very bland. They didn't have much flavor surprised because of all the reviews that I had read. To be honest, I didn't even finish my tea. The tea was just OK too. How do you not make good tea? It seems to be water down quite a bit. Well I'll probably give it one more try cause I always try every place twice, but I don't think I'm gonna get much difference. About that friendly service I don't know where it was cause I didn't experience it. Maybe next time.

Got there just before the rush to wrap up our getaway weekend. Had the best food and just a comfy atmosphere.

Great diner feel with classic yummy brunch food. Hella long wait at 10am - we waited 50 min for a table for 2. Just be prepared and don't be hangry, they're working hard!

First time here, received a warm and friendly welcome at the entrance. Sat immediately, tables clean, food cooked to order. The portions were large and very appealing. The food was great, service was exceptional, the price was not bad at all. This will always be one of our stops when we come to Tahoe. All waitresses gave attention to all tables. This is a must for anyone looking for a home cooked meal in a warm family environment.

We both loved our meals here! Parking is a bit tight but they have extra parking a couple lots down, and definitely expect a wait to be seated. The hot chocolate was fun with a heap of whipped cream and sprinkles on top. My Mexican frittata was tasty and full of flavor, same with the biscuits and gravy - that was some goood gravy! We left stuffed but really enjoyed our meals. The staff we spoke too were all very nice and friendly as well. Would recommend!

Everything was good and cooked perfect. All of the staff were polite and friendly. We had about a 40 minute wait, and left full. Orders are huge, so could be shared for sure! Biscuits n gravy were great, with a unique flavor and fluffy biscuits! Perfect for anyone looking for well cooked diner breakfasts.

If you find yourself in Lake Tahoe, Bert's Cafe is a must-visit! The portions here are impressively generous--just watching dishes being served will make you feel full. Despite being in a tourist hotspot, the prices are refreshingly reasonable. The cafe serves handmade ranch, freshly squeezed orange juice, and exceptional, speedy service Ambiance is great too

Nice ambiance. Old school retro mountain cabin vibes. Friendly, attentive and relaxed service. Eggs sausage bacon pancakes good. French toast a lil dry & bland lacking seasoning with nutmeg and cinnamon. Fruit compote tastes like from a can. Very syrupy and processed tasting.

This will definitely be my new go-to spot for breakfast in Tahoe. Everything tried was amazing. Service was friendly and fast. I especially enjoyed the chicken fried bone-in pork chop. The chicken fried steak was amazing, too. It was not a cube steak, but rather a thin cut of an actual steak. Definitely a notch otlr two above your average griddle breakfast joint.

Great place for a hearty breakfast! The wait can be a bit long during busy seasons, but it's worth it! I had enough for two breakfasts.

Pancakes were fantastic, some of the best I've had. Great service, super friendly staff. Will definitely return.

Really good breakfast burrito, everything was cooked perfect. Cool spot and was packed. Did take a long time to get my Togo order but was worth the wait!

Bert's Café is worth the wait! We had a 30 minute wait on a Saturday, but once seated, the food came out hot and delicious, and the service was super friendly. Classic diner vibes done right I am definitely coming back!

After waiting for an hour for seating on a drizzly Sunday morning my wife and I enjoyed some delicious Benedicts that were well worth the wait. Rich in flavor and beautifully done hollandaise any worries about the food here quickly faded away. The Cafe is cute and cozy and very reasonably priced for what you get and the staff was friendly despite the busiest hours of the day, definitely would recommend coming back here and trying other things on their menu!

Amazing food and amazing service - highly recommend if you're in town. The staff was great at keeping coffee and water filled; we never had to ask for a thing.

A great place to stop for breakfast. The service is amazing and so is the food. HUGEE portions so be ready to eat. The orange juice is made freshly squeezed- which is the best. Omelette was super good- very cheesy. Hashbrowns were perfectly crisp. I would totally come again when I come back in town!

Stopped by on our weekend trip to Tahoe! It was plenty busy on a Saturday around 12:30 (makes sense) but our group of 6 was still able to be seated within about 10 minutes. It took a little bit of time for us to actually order food, but coffee + water came quickly; service was very friendly; and our food was out quickly after ordering! I got the pecan waffle with strawberry compote (delicious) and a side of corn beef hash, which was a little flat and mostly fried meat? but still yummy. The vibe of the place is definitely classic diner; I appreciate it as I have not found one quite like it since leaving the diner kingdom! (New Jersey.) Service is great, space is fairly clean, music was fun and at a respectable volume, and menu has anything you could want for a breakfast-brunch-lunch. Glad we visited!
