    This place has legit pancakes and waffles. The portions are huge and the ambiance is old school diner, but it's still clean and the food is high quality for breakfast food. Tips included in total!

    Chicken and waffles was the best dish. Blueberry lemon pancakes second best. Order sage gravy on the side. Very popular brunch spot. We waited 35 mins noon Saturday. Mandatory 15% tip.

    The bubble and squeak while not expressly vegetarian— although no meat is on the plate — is phenomenal none the less. One of the best breakfasts in Oakland.

    Fantastically varied menu - VERY hard to pick just one thing. Best breakfast/brunch menu I've found so far in all of Oakland!

    Bubble and squeak with poached eggs or over easy. Vegetarian gravy, greens, biscuit, potato pancakes and more than enough flavor to start your day.

    Every time I come here I insist I'm going to get something different, but then I show up and order the Bubble & Squeak. If I don't, I always regret it.

    Their weekday breakfast is great, but the weekend specials are the reason to go.

    The Buttermilk Pie is probably the best pie I've ever had. Don't leave without a slice.

    I was served burnt English muffins (completely black on the bottom) hidden in mole sauce. Totally insulted!

    They're trading on their name at this point. Chicken in my chicken and waffles was horrifically dry. Not even drowning it on syrup and gravy could save it.

    The Bubble n Squeak is an all-time favorite with the cornbread substituting for the biscuit.

    The bubble and squeek was amazing. The real surprise however was the side of sausage. Not link- patty. Spicy, meaty carmely.

    The coffee was great! But the food is below average. The cornbread was hard and cold and the grits were lumpy. Overated for the price save your dollars and go anywhere else

    When the corned beef hash is on the menu, you must try it. Otherwise get something, anything with gravy.
