Crema's Take
“This is a genuine old-school diner that's been feeding Mission for over 85 years, and the reviews consistently praise both the food quality and the staff's ability to deliver consistently even when slammed. The atmosphere is straight out of a mid-century movie—free coffee refills, checkered booths, the whole package—and regulars seem to genuinely love the place for its authenticity rather than any trendy coffee angle. Fair warning: delivery reviews are spotty, so this is best experienced in person during busy hours when the kitchen and front-of-house team are clearly firing on all cylinders.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast on the menu. Family friendly.

See all on Google →Great place! It has an old school diner vibe. The food is good and the service is great. The place was really busy and everyone working there was knocking it out. Even though it was busy my eggs were perfect. I had hoped it would be good and it didn't disappoint.
I wish I took a picture of my food but it was so good I ate it before I knew what I was doing. Free refills on coffee ans soft drinks and the atmosphere is that of a diner you would see in a movie. It was excellent. I've lived here 36 years and cant believe I've never been. …

Unfortunately, it was very mediocre food. I ordered delivery. Potatoes are not even cooked. They have a choice of potatoes and I picked “crispy hash brown”. Nothing is crispy about it and it doesn’t even taste like it has salt on it. The biscuit is better at McDonalds. This is a…
