The back patio is quite large, so if it looks crowded in the front, don’t hesitate to head towards the back. The staff is more than happy to guide you there as well.

Paid an extra $7 for a handful of blueberries thrown on top and cold syrup. Forgot the bacon. No butter, napkins, or utensils. I wenthome and took a covid test to make sure I hadn?t lost my sense of taste (I didn?t, the food was just that bland).

Awesome little breakfast cafe. Food is 10 outta 10. The lady running it is an angel. read more Awesome little breakfast cafe. Food is 10 outta 10. The lady running it is an angel.

I make my own Hollandaise at home from scratch, and you could tell the same at this place. My husband had the corned beef hash,and you could tell the difference from their freshly made one to the gross in the can style most restaurants use. I woulddefinitely recommend this place, provided you have no issue paying $20+ a plate for breakfast.

The atmosphere is calm and quirky. I order the eggs Benedict and it's always a hit... I do wish the ham was a thinnerslice. We also tried the special which was ribeye steak eggs which wasn't as great as we would've liked for the price.Speaking of pricing, it has definitely gotten more and more expensive with each visit. I think some items were definitelyoverpriced but again, I'll keep coming here purely for the kind people, the good food, and the nostalgia. I love to see aCarpinteria staple still standing strong.
