Side Street Cafe

What a great find for breakfast. It's a little hole in the wall and was recommended by a friend. These are often the best places, and Side Street Cafe didn't disappoint.The service was great as were my eggs, and I love supporting small businesses.Check them out when you're in the area!

It's been awhile since I've been here, but still great as always with comfortable atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious breakfast food.

Good solid breakfast. Food is tasty, decor is quirky and fun, service was great. Kept waters and coffees full without having to ask. Had the corned beef hash and eggs, friend had the breakfast combo plate of pancakes, eggs, and bacon. Interesting note, they have Squaw bread as an option. Really hard to find a place that has it anymore. Only service mishap that we had was that I did order Squaw bread, but they brought sourdough instead. They did remedy it right away and took full accountability for the mistake. So, no harm, no foul. The corned beef hash seemed to be a restaurant product and not home-made.Overall, a good experience and I would not hesitate to come back if I was in the area or recommend it to someone. Especially if you are looking for an idiosyncratic atmosphere. Hope you give them a try.

Great diner food, cozy casual homely decor with wait staff who makes you feel like you'd be walking out out into Big Bear. Instead of a crowded beach parking. Coffee comes in cabin mugs and refilled yummier than Denny's. Adorable menu where no delicate decorative flower gets bejeweled on a bed of locally tweezed micro greens from foraging Mrs. Fields. It's what you ordered, what's on the menu. Everything is fine, just fine!

This small cafe is friendly and relaxed. The staff is amazing. I met an old friend there for brunch on a Friday and we stayed talking for quite awhile after we had finished eating. The staff did not try to rush us out and refilled our coffee. (If there had been people waiting I would not have lingered)We both got the stuffed French toast that comes with eggs and potatoes. Everything was done to perfection. The scrambled eggs were just right, soft and fluffy. The stuffed French toast was served with fresh berries and was absolutely lovely. I'm sorry I didn't get a picture I was so preoccupied reuniting with an old friend, I forgot. Overall great experience.

Stopped in for breakfast and instantly fell in love with the character and the charm. Looking at all the knick knacks on the wall and seeing their family photos made it feel like I was eating breakfast at a friend's house. Good food but the prompt and kind service will get me to return. Also the coffee was delicious!

What a warm and welcoming place to grab a bite to eat!We were greeted with smiles and seated immediately.Food came out quick and hot!We were well taken care of!I would highly recommend this place!

Another Sunday morning visit! Ice coffee for the win. Morning Carshow and then a home cooked meal. Thanks you ladies for making my morning

The best homestyle breakfast in California. We've been spoiled for years, by the quality, service, and hospitality..things that side street just doesn't skimped on.

I love this out of the way gem--great prices, good breakfast comfort food, and fun ambience--and am very sorry to hear that it's closing. All the best to the owner in retirement!
