Mike's Mess (add jalapeños ). Pancakes are great. For a crazy meal, get the Jr Mess and sub pancakes for toast . The burgers are the best too. Homemade buns .

Alex Price

Honestly, they've got awesome food. It's a great place to catch up with friends over a good, filling bite to eat. They charged us a ton of money for a jug of orange juice though, so ask for prices.

You can’t find sour dough pancakes anywhere but here and they are great. Also, the Mike’s Mess and the Artichoke Frittata are amazingly different breakfast treats.

Jerry Miller

Everything here looks and smells delicious, but I can tell you the Italian Scramble is mouth watering delicious. I truly hope I can come back one more time before leaving the Cruz

Ashley Mowrey

Lots of vegan options , huge portions , lovely staff , but a long ass wait. Legitimately, it's going to be a long ass wait. But also worth it. Add-Ina get expensive quick, so watch yourself.

Rishon Roberts

Go hungry. Share a mike's mess and the special fruit pancakes (usually banana walnut in fall/winter, berry in spring/summer) with someone. Who needs a menu?

Coen Cuijpers

Chili and eggs ...amazing combo and the corned beef hash is absolutely amazing. Also try the cornbread .

Homemade pancakes were delish!! Come early (before or a lil after 9am) in the weekends cuz they get packed quick

Another plug for those sourdough pancakes : Light, thin, crispy edges, and made with sourdough starter. Delicious!

Good brunch place , the waiter who served my friend and I was also very friendly and accommodating.

Zachary's has the best breakfasts in the world, but their lunches are amazing, too. This place has the BEST BURGER I have ever had in my life. No lie. It will melt your heart.

Always check the specials before you order - there’s nothing bad here, but sometimes the specials are particularly good.

Service is hit or miss, but food is great. Mikes Mess is a ton of food and tastes great. Corned beef hash is excellent, the meat was awesome

Corned Beef Hash is the best; we always get a loaf of Oatmeal Molasses bread to take home.

Order the pepper bacon and Bleu cheese burger !! AMAZING!!

Long line . The special omelet was fulfilling after the race
