There was a pretty long wait, but once we were seated the service was great. The food was good actually, but just a little more expensive than I had hoped at a diner.

$8.60 for a side of 3 Burt cold pieces of bacon…. Everything else was super mid and over priced. Valt cafe down the street on MLK is half the price and 10x the quality.

This place makes me feel like I'm at home on a Saturday morning. My go to breakfast? Ricotta Special:
Two ricotta cakes, one egg, and your choice of two bacon strips or pork links. Served with real maple syrup. All for about $19.00.

And don't forget some of the best coffee served in the East Bay.

Never rushed, always friendly, reasonably priced and consistent.
If you find yourself walking casually up College Ave some morning, Matt says check out Rickridge Cafe.

It will take you back to your childhood

They have what they call the “ultimate burrito” for ~$18 bucks and it’s like a grab and go you’d get at the airport. Should come with a box of crayons if they’re gonna serve baby boi burritos

I was shocked by the small portions for large prices. Was half of the food that I was expecting. Will not be going back for that reason.

I came here twice .

First time I order their breakfast sandwich ; which is just a croissant with eggs and cheese. I added avocado which was a $5 up charge. Their coffee is nothing special and was also about $5 . My whole meal was $25. Waaaaaay overpriced!

I came back today because I wanted to try their ricotta pancakes they're known for. I got their special , 2 pancakes, 1 egg and 2 pcs of sausage. I don't understand why we only get one egg and yet it was still $20 .

I like this place for the sake of being a local, casual diner,l. But the foods not that great and they overpriced !

I’ve been here a while ago, but I still remember the ricotta pancakes very fondly

Great breakfast spot in hidden gem Oakland neighborhood. Classic diner interior. The service doesn’t rush you, so perfect for meeting up with friends or colleagues. The menu satisfies all egg urges.

A very beautiful and cozy diner in Rockridge. Food is in the americana/diner style, but there's also some latin influences. The atmosphere is amazing, the staff is very kind and the food is great, medium to high-medium prices. Coming here is always great and very fun.

Breakfast here has been consistently excellent here for more years than you and I together have fingers and toes.

Cute little cafe with in and outdoor dining. I ordered a special crab eggs Benedict, it was good, but for $28.00, the crab wasn't very flavorful.
I was looking forward to it. I might try the Rockridge cafe again, but I would order something else.

Classic cafe with a simple menu. They're always willing to fresh up your cup of coffee!

Only disparaging thing I can say about the Rockridge is that it's very busy at times and why is that? Because it's the best dining experience from the food to the waitstaff! Dogs are welcome if eating outside... and they're awfully nice to your pet, too!
