it wasnt all that..

by coupleswtnight

Staring from the begining, we were lucky to find a parking spot right when we arrived. Then, when got to the restaurant, we had to write our names on the waiting list. Fortunately, we only waited about 1 minute. Now, for the food, the home made scones were great.

I ordered salmon bagel with cream cheese... It was Disgusting. The salmon was brown and not fresh at all. I even picked a piece off the bagel. ICK..........

And for me, I had the special which consists of 2 eggs, a sausage, and 2 french toasts. What I have to say about the sausage is that it was different from the ones I usually eat. The choices was spicy or mild. I ordered mild and I think I like my usual sausages more. But anyway, I thought the french toasts were delicious. The bread was soaked with eggs and the syrup was not too sweet.

Overall, I don't think we would go back again. Mainly because of the salmon.

A couple asked how the salmon bagel was and we showed them the piece that was brown. They left right away without ordering. LOL..shh...........

• Pros: scones with the jam, french toast
• Cons: parking, service

best scones!

by f8d

Generous portions at low prices. Complimentary, signature fresh baked scones are served with a fruit puree - absolutely scrumptous! We love the potato pancakes served with applesauce and sour cream that accompany many egg dishes. Everyone I have introduced to this place for breakfast/brunch has become a return customer.

• Pros: signature scones & potato pancakes
• Cons: wait can be long on weekends

Has gone downhill

by theburg

i used to eat here all the time before we moved out of the area. on a recent trip back, we stopped in on a wednesday morning. the usual waitress was not working--I'm hoping that her replacement was merely temporary, because she was HORRIBLE. Slow, inattentive, and when, upon reviewing the check, we realized she brought us 3 eggs instead of one, she did not apologize or suggest that she take this item off the check.

also, despite the relatively few number of diners, the food took a long time to come out.

I won't be going back.

Absolutely GOOD food

by breveisyum

The scones are oooo so buttery. Very very yummy. Also try the banana walnut pancakes and their fritatas and the waffles and their FRESH OJ and grapefruit juices. There are too many good dishes to choose from so just go and choose ALL. It's definitely worth the wait because the line moves extremely fast for a breakfast joint. There is never any problems with the quality of the food even if it is served right away. This place is DEE-LISH!!

• Pros: Delicious, Quick, Cheap

love that place

by superdds

awesome scones and their most underrated fare are the waffles. very light and in my opinion, better than the famous ole's waffles in alameda. also try their chicken omelet. parking structure on pierce makes parking a little easier

Great Food!

by foodloveri

Not your typical diner fare - the menu here rivals the better breakfast places in the city. Plus, there isn't a lot of attitude served with the food. Fresh scones, interesting ingredients - people who know food will appreciate this place.

• Pros: Creative Menu, Fresh Scones, Large Portions

"...your're out!"

by frequenteater

The service was the worst we'd ever experienced - inattentive, even disdainful . Despite a yummy meal, we left with heartburn from the way (or lack thereof) we were treated. Will not go back.

• Pros: good food
• Cons: horrible service, filthy menu covers

I'd go there again

by Monster

Home plate was worth the wait. I went there on a Sat morn so there were already a lot of people waiting outside but they serve their food fast so most people leave when they're done. I've never had scones before but their scones were sooo good. Their pancakes were nice and fluffy and so were the eggs. Even the coffee was good. I would definitely go back again.

Go for the run!

by cs_totoro

I absolutely love the restaurant! The boards on the wall contains additional delicious selections (roasted chicken omlette). It gets very busy during the weekends. You can't go wrong!
