Food Scene

Brunch is a treat with outdoor seating, yummy eggs, 7 kinds of french fries . Live music Friday and Saturday evenings. A very short walk away. Local scene. I've enjoyed late lunch outdoors under large umbrella in the sun.

Bakery, cafe, pizza slice with different flavor each day. Yummy baked goods of all kinds. 10% senior discount only if you ask before they start ringing you up. Reward yourself after walking around the Lake! A collective, the first of three branches in the Bay Area, with truly friendly people.

Considered the best falafel in town. Order ahead, take it to go, picnic on the Lake. Or, check out many other restaurants right in the same block, including Thai. Weekdays only, 11:00-2:30, aiming for the lunch crowd!
