Susan LohJuly 29, 2011The only acceptable greasy hangover food spot in the hood. Hold out as long as you can to avoid all the hipsters. Everything's good!- The Bold ItalicMarch 1, 2011Try the delicious gut-bomb called the "nebulous potato thing." Oh yeah, and add a milkshake. Read more

Brandon ProctorOctober 19, 2014I like this place. But they made us wait 25 min for outside. Then told us it was closed.
Vegan pancakes and chorizo hash. Need I say more? No. The answer is no.
Aaron WheelerSeptember 4, 2012The pesto tofu scramble + vegan thing'ed potatoes = breakfast heaven! Slow service if you sit in the front though.
devil burger or the phil's grill, on sourdough and add jalepenos. eat it with fries if you are hungover.
Everything I've ever had there is great but the coffee is very average, and usually served lukewarm.
annie 🧸September 22, 2012Nab a coffee at philz nearby. Sip with friends during your brunch time wait
Go for the Chef's Mess. So much yum. Also, the Upside-Down Hog Cakes.
FoodspottingDecember 12, 2010For the definition of comfort breakfast food, you don’t need to look any further than the bacon pancakes. - Seth
Guiness and ice cream. Two great things that do NOT taste great together. You have been warned.
This place is Vegan-Awesome, lots of Vegan and vegetarian options on the menu.
Ask for egg white-only scrambles if you're watching your girlish figure.
shalzers McGeeFebruary 7, 2014Frequently closed at 6 even though hours posted tell 10. Screw you St. Francis. Done me wrong too many times.
