We arrived at 8:30am thinking we would beat the rush but still waited for over 2 hours in the queue. The food was fantastic though, but when you only have a weekend in San Francisco, not sure if I would waste two precious hours waiting in line for breakfast again. If you do have the time, the eggs benedict, classic... More

Charming little restaurant! We got there at 9am and waited for an hour. It was sunny and hot...they could use a couple umbrellas to help people survive the wait. But once inside, you can see that everything is fresh made right before your eyes. The staff is friendly. And the food is great! We had a group of 8 that... More

Heard about the queues here up to 2 hrs but we thought we would try it anyway. In fact we waited 1 hr to get in then another 25 minutes before we were eating. Apart from being very popular I only counted 14 tables which helps explain the wait. So what happens? When you get into the restaurant after the... More

We arrived on a Sunday aprox. 845am after attending mass at St Peters. The line didn't appear horribly long but we waited a little over 2 hours to eat. Luckily the weather was nice so that helped. There are also eateries close by to get coffee & across the street is a great bakery. You may need a snack because... More

Maybe if you get here very early, it would be worth it, but we arrived around 9:30 and had to wait in line for well over an hour in the sun (it was a sunny, warm morning). The breakfast was definitely delicious, but our family decided that Hollywood Cafe was better without the long wait. If you go, just go... More

We went to Mamas on a local recommendation and we weren't disappointed. We had to queue for around 40 mins to get in but it is a nice area so we weren't too bothered. Once in we ordered whole grain toast with eggs and Canadian bacon and a 2nd plate of French toast with fruit...the presentation was lovely and not... More

We walked to the cafe and had to wait 40minutes outside, which in my books means the food must be good. It was lovely. Fresh food, great taste in a cute cafe environment. A must for breakfast. Even whilst waiting outside you can watch the local Chinese population exercise outside in the park, making you feel slightly guilty about what... More

If you are not in a rush and have the patience to wait in a line, the breakfast can be very good. I saw some mixed reviews here and I think its fair to say it really depends on what you order. If you order correctly this place can be great. I think the Washington Square omelette and the Kugelhopf... More

Mama's is mentioned in Time magazine as the best breakfast in SF which means it is busy all the time. We arrived at 7.45am to get a table when it opens at 8am and still found a huge queue and eventually got sat down two hours later. If it wasn't for the jet lag we wouldn't have waited, and the... More
