Treat yourself to something different and have breakfast at Sam's Log Cabin. The family-run roadhouse that looks like it was built with Lincoln Logs, has a casual atmosphere, and serves simple, yet inventive, gourmet dishes. The inside is decorated with vintage knick-knacks and hanging egg beaters. Outside is reminiscent of a residential backyard with patio seating and a lawn with lawn chairs, for guests to relax on while waiting for a table. The menu offers a few, select breakfast and lunch choices. Choose from delicious items such as mango and yogurt parfait, Swedish crepes, organic eggs, potato-leek soup, homemade fish sticks, and homemade coffee cake.
Huge omelettes are the draw at this upscale diner-style eatery. Locals pack the counter and the booths for them served with delectable home fries and a variety of fillings that takes a page and a half of the menu to list. You will also find Eggs Benedict, Eggs Florentine, eggs poached, scrambled, over easy and sunny side up. If you are not in the mood for eggs, the waffles are equally enormous and the French toast is decadently sweet. For lunch there is the classic assortment of burgers and sandwiches, of which the crab cake is especially noteworthy. The service is fast and friendly in the classic diner tradition.

The Montclair Egg Shop, as the name implies, is located in Oakland's quaint Montclair Village. This friendly neighborhood eatery specializes in breakfasts and brunches. Of course, the Egg Shop has almost a full menu page dedicated to eggs and omlettes, but the Egg Shop also offers other breakfast favorites like crepes, waffles and pancakes. In addition to the breakfast offerings, there is also a selection of sandwiches for those getting off to a later start.
What started life as a burger joint has refashioned itself as a cozy little café that pours its efforts into cuisine, not décor. Not that it's unattractive, but the generic tables, chairs and counter seating doesn't leave much of an impression. The food, on the other hand, is imaginative in conception and preparation. It's also delicious and served up to locals and shoppers at nearby Rockridge Mall with genuine warmth and welcome speed. The Apache Lamb Stew is hearty and flavorful, as is Acadian Cassoulet, swimming in smoked bacon and gourmet sausage. Breakfasts here are the specialty with dishes like Pumpkin Waffles and Ricotta Pancakes. Save room for the pie, baked in-house and featuring seasonal fruits as well as year-round favorites such as Coconut Custard and Lemon Meringue.
