For me, it's all about the ambiance. Grab an omelet and an iced coffee and just people-watch for a nice long while.
Nice place to grab a quick slice or two! Though if you want a slice of some exotic combo or other very particular offering, that'll tack on another 15 minutes to your wait.
Joe's Hobo Omelette is a favorite with my crew, but the chicken-fried steak also ranks highly. And the homemade biscuits are LOL WOW terrifyingly huge. I've never successfully tackled one.
Various burgers, fish and chips, shandies and ESBs - all good stuff, if not super inexpensive. Emily is our regular server; she's pretty fantastic.
Forever busy. But far-and-away the cheapest gas for a fair whack around. Fill up your tank; optionally get discount beverages to placate your needs; enjoy all of the savings.
Perfect for a schmooze after a raging party the night before. Tons of floor space; friendly service. It's a solid place to be.
Parking is forever tight, but it's worth the fight. TONS of options for diners of all stripes. Dutch Crunch bread for the sandwich and one of the bottled lemonades to chase it: totally boss choice.
Clean and well-lit, with a friendly staff in a quiet plaza. Definitely one of the better 7-11 locations out there. I use it as an Amazon Locker pick-up location all the time.
I've seen the "SEPARATE YOUR GARBAGE" sign in person. It is, assuredly, exquisite.
Love this place! Forever strange beers on tap. Sample enough of them over the months and you end up on the wall of fame. Tasty burgers and sides are available while you do so! It's a very chill place.
Johnnie's Super and Joe's Bar are the two "these institutions are nigh-immortal" cornerstones of this redwood-laden zero-stoplight town. Visit them if you want to see what real local color looks like.
Awesomely down-to-earth bar. No hipsters or starched shirts; just generally chill folks looking for a good time. Low on "cachet", and a bit off the beaten path, but a favorite of mine all the same.
A Silicon Valley staple! Grab a pint, a half-priced offering of the night, and take in a Giants game. It's a stellar way to spend an evening or a lazy Saturday afternoon.
View of the scoreboard is often blocked from this far out towards left field - a couple sections towards home plate rectifies that. That said, still a lovely place to take in an afternoon ballgame.
Can't believe more people don't know about this place. For looking like a nondescript liquor store, it has a fantastically broad array of esoteric offerings, both highbrow and lowbrow. It's marvelous.
Wow: chill bartender, upbeat crowds, and over twenty beers of myriad varieties on tap? Color me impressed!
"$12.99 for a 12-pack of Gordon Biersch" has been their sale price for as long as I can remember. That's a pretty solid deal - better than most major chain supermarkets, even.
