One of my favorite places to write. I thank my thesis director (from my MFA program) for telling me about the place. Apparently, they have locations in San Francisco and Emeryville, but I still have yet to check those out.
- Excellent food (breakfast and lunch). Love the egg dishes and salads.
- Good coffee.
- Yummy desserts.
- You can buy a card and use it to purchase coffee, food, or better yet, give to a friend as a gift card.
- Sneaky tip: Bakesale Bette’s other sandwich location is only a few doors down. I’ve been known to sneak in a fried chicken sandwich here as I sip my coffee. (But always remember to tip big due to intense guilt.)
- Nice–I mean NICE–bathroom, complete with air freshener and a long chalkboard with daily questions posted for patrons to answer while they sit on the toilet.
- Free wi-fi
Cons: Gets crowded at times, but I always manage to find a seat.
