I have only had the ricotta pancakes here and they are DELICIOUS!!!I don’t like pancakes, I’m team waffle 100%, so this is saying something.Definitely worth stopping by & even better on a weekday morning when they are not crowded.

Rockridge Cafe has been in business for over 50 years serving breakfasts and lunches. They are open 8am to 2pm daily and over the years have served millions of customers.we had a fabulous breakfast. I had the Hemingway: poached eggs with lox and avocado served with cheese over delicious bread. My wife had their Alaska Omelette.

Always good food & service. The Rock is one of my favorite go-to breakfast spots in the East Bay. If you really know what you like, just tell them... They are also very accomdating for those that have dietary restrictions. Yummy!

Food is delicious (hearty and classic) and the staff are very friendly and kind. It’s the best neighborhood spot. Dogs allowed at the outside sidewalk tables.
This diner style restaurant is EXTREMELY overpriced. I was charged $16 for one thin waffle. Do not order the waffles if you don’t want to be hungry. It was the same price as other menu items that came with a lot more. My partner got a plate with 2 pancakes, an egg, bacon and home fries for the same price. I really expected at least 2-3 waffles on the dish for that price. It didn’t even taste very good.
Rockridge staple with good diner food.Parking: Street parking wasn’t too hard.

We spent $50, including tip, on canned corned beef hash mixed with a whole onion and a half brunt cornmeal Waffle. The scone was just a dry cupcake. The other dishes people ordered looked good. No one came around to offer water and check in until they saw me taking pictures of the food.Kid-friendliness: I saw several kids, kids menu, crayons and coloring sheetsWheelchair accessibility: Flat surface. Wide doors and aisles.

Charming little coffee shop in the historic Rockridge area of Oakland. There is off street parking and side street parking and the neighborhood is upbeat residential. Friendly and safe in the day time.

Hubby and I hadn't been to Rockridge Cafe since before Covid. We were saddened to find the café completely empty when we arrived and only a few patrons when we left.There were two menus(more options, I guess, is a good thing). Big price increase, but I guess it's that way everywhere. Thanks, Covid 19.?
