The Cafe's focus is to provide quality, affordable, creative dishes that taste great in an atmosphere the celebrates the City by the Bay's great history. 

All meals are prepared from scratch to order.  You will not find processed meals passed as house made.  Here we make our own salad dressings and sauces, bake our turkeys, pulled pork, roasts; and season and bake an array of vegetarian dishes.
