First time visiting this excellent cafe tucked away in Concord off Pacheco St. Stopping by on a Saturday morning, we were greeted warmly and quickly seated. In addition to their standard breakfast/brunch/lunch menu, there were also weekend specials. A lot of great-sounding options but since it was our first time, we decided to try some of our favorite traditional items. The corned beef hash was in the form we like and well-seasoned. It was accompanied by two eggs (ordered over easy and cooked just right!) as well as crispy hash browns that were not too greasy. The sourdough toast was crisp and came with assorted smucker's jams. We also tried their breakfast combo where we ordered eggs and link sausage (4 juicy links) along with a large portion of nicely prepared French toast. The coffee was Columbian and hot, and my cup always stayed full. They also provided large glasses of ice water, and provided ketchup and Tabasco sauce for our breakfast platters. The portions were large and commensurate with their prices, which were reasonable, and the service was outstanding. We are already aiming to get back soon to try other things on their menu. read more

Working in Concord for a couple of weeks, and while doing my Sunday day off laundry chore nearby, I searched for a breakfast spot close to me. I decided to give this neighborhood cafe a try and so happy that I did. The place has a very welcoming atmosphere. Little bit of a nostalgic vibe with a touch of modern. I loved that there was the old diner counter to sit at and watch the cook do his magic. There are several tables as well inside and some tables outside to enjoy a meal under the sky. If you view the menu, you'll see they offer quite an array of choices. My choice today was the Portuguese omelette with toast and hashbrowns. I complemented the cook on how easy he made it look to cook on a griddle and how well he managed to prepare the dishes. If you've ever tried to do an omelette on a flat griddle, you'll understand my point. The food was amazing. Well made and with such great flavor. I'm really hoping to be here next weekend to give this place another visit before I depart for home. The omelette was three eggs and plenty of filling. You'll be pleasantly full or asking for a box to go. The hashbrowns were perfect also. The lady my order and making sure I didn't need anything was super friendly and had a great personality. A trifecta for a five star visit to an out of town visitor. Kudos to the Bay Leaf Cafe for making my morning a wonderful one. read more

We have visited Bay Leaf Cafe a few years ago and wasn't impressed, but decided to try again. We were delighted by the quality of food. I ordered a Shrimp and Avocado Salad . The Thousand Island Dressing was served on the side in a small container. It was enough dressing. The amount of shrimp was great! They were not skimpy. The avocado slices were just the right amount. Overall, this was a delicious salad. Greek Salad. The person who ordered this thought the flavor was nice, but wished they used Kalamata olives instead of black olives. Her comment was , "it would make this more a Greek Salad in flavor." The chicken was added and actually made the salad more substantial. The amount of dressing was overwhelming. She would have like the dressing on the side so she could add it herself. Overall, she enjoyed the salad, but probably would not order it again. Belgium Waffle with two eggs and two bacon. The person who ordered this said it was a very decent combination and he would definitely order it again. Overall we will be back to try more of the items on the Bay Leaf menu. read more

Bay Leaf Cafe - Mocha - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Concord, California

This place was recommended to me by a friend with their weekly specials. We were coming from an appointment and decided to stop by. I got the pancake special while the boyfriend got the 2 egg special. The plates/portions were small, but the prices were under $15. I also got a hot chocolate which was a nice addition to my meal. It's a great place if you want something on a budget. Our whole meal was under $30! The pancake special was filling, but the 2 egg dish didn't seem to be. It's a great option to have in your back pocket. read more

Average breakfast spot that has outdoor and indoor seating. Inside is very cute. Met with a friend on a Saturday afternoon and we were seated right away. Ordered a vegetarian sandwich since it sounded very fresh with a side of fries. Overall the sandwich was ok, no real flavor which was a shame considering all of the fresh ingredients. The fries were probably the best part. Overall the size of the meal was very good for the price, but the lack of flavor will not bring me back again. read more

(based on one visit) Nice service, clean interior, rich coffee, clean bathroom... Fair prices. Oh, and the food, the food, specifically the chicken fried steak, was AWESOME! Steak breading was actually crispy underneath the gravy (Not at all soggy like everywhere else), the gravy itself was very flavorful, the eggs were standard as were the hasbrowns.... Together, it was exactly what the doctor ordered! Thank you!!! read more

Bay Leaf Cafe - The BEST chicken fried steak I've EVER had... Not exaggerating!!! Woofed this entire plate in about 3 minutes, 49 seconds flat! Yummmm!!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Concord, California

The service is good and the location is close to where I live. Have come here many times over the years . The food is what to expect but sometime leaves you wanting a little more . Price is standard but maybe a little more than quality of food would suggest. It's not a big place but is a good breakfast / brunch small style restaurant. Right by down town today's santos for a walk after your meal. read more

This cafe is the exact thing that I was looking for this morning. I wanted to be surrounded by flowers, with a yummy breakfast, and a hot chocolate in hand. The $8.99 weekday specials are a steal! It's a good amount of food for a great price! I ordered the biscuits and gravy with home style potatoes. It was delicious! Next I'll definitely try the pancakes and one of the omelettes! The omelette list was extensive!! I was greeted and seated immediately and I ordered based on the waitress's recommendation. She did not disappoint! I'm not sure what the inside of the place looks like, but I loved the outdoor seating! Beautiful flowers, sunlight, and great food are the perfect combination! read more

This breakfast/lunch venue is an absolute gem. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Spectacular, warm, friendly customer service. Easy parking, quaint part of town, beautiful ambience. Then, the food. Extraordinary selection, fresh, delicious, wonderful. When I find precious Breakfast bars like this, I love to tell my friends. Even something simple like the chopped fruit with breakfast (instead of potatoes). Instead of flavorless cardboard, fruit that you normally get, the fruit was carefully selected, expertly chopped, and perfectly delicious. It's the small things like this that make a place stand out. If you want a great place to go have breakfast, wonderful service, good vibes, spectacular food, this is it, don't waste time - just go here. read more

We will definitely be back. read more

My favorite breakfast spot. We have been coming here for 16 years. Our regular place for delicious food, fast and friendly service, and a small mom and pop feel. I've tried most of the menu over these years, favorites are biscuit and gravy, Texas omelet, and recently the Belgian waffle. I've never had a bad meal here!! read more

The place is a mall cafe and very courteous people who listen to our food compliments

Order: - steak and eggs - combo with French toast Breakfast was fantastic! I was going to give it 4 stars but the bang for your buck pushes it to 5. I loved my my order of french toast. The eggs were actually made to order (over medium) with no jiggly whites leftover - my true test of how kitchens cook eggs ;) We also got the steak and eggs (also actually cooked to order) with a side of potatoes. The potatoes were really soft and had great flavor coming through. Even our side of sourdough was delicious. It's a great local breakfast spot, so definitely check it out! We went on a Monday, and plenty of tables were taken so you'll be in good company read more

This was our 2nd time having breakfast here and it doesn't disappoint. We came down to watch the 3rh of July parade and this was the perfect spot!

The Bay Leaf Cafe is a small place in downtown Concord. It's been a breakfast spot for quite a few years in the area. Hadn't been for a while until recently during the July heat wave... I hate to say, but I was set back by what I experienced. The temperature that day was around 100 degrees by late morning. And, the inside of the restaurant had to have been mid to high 80s at least. They had a big ole noisy swamp cooler on wheels blowing warm air around the place. It just made the whole situation worse really. One word, inappropriate. If you can't keep a small space like they have cool for customers you have a serious problem on your hands. This little cafe really needs to be retrofitted with AC in a hurry. Being that the food was not that good also, I don't think I'll be going back unfortunately. Final Thought: If you're thinking of going on a hot day.....think again. Black Bear has way better breakfast also. read more

Great place for breakfast. Good food and good service in a quaint diner style restaurant. I dig it!

Absolutely solid breakfast and lovely service! I've come here a couple of times now and really like this no frills diner breakfast! I've had the California Benedict, with perfectly done poached eggs, and the corned beef hash, which was delicious, also with perfectly poached eggs and has browns. The service is lovely, and attentive and the food comes pretty quickly! Would definitely recommend! read more

I wanted to treat my girls out for a little family breakfast this morning. This restaurant is in a pretty location, staff was friendly, but the food was expensive and bland. $11 for one egg and one slice of French toast from the kid's menu...geez. Anyway, three stars for the experience and for the kind waitress who made sure we had a nice time. Minus two stars for price and lack of seasoning. Oh, but the coffee was super good! I'll be back for the Java for sure! read more

Don't be alarmed just a gassy feeling soon after lol. read more

I'm given them an extra star because they did fill a needed void (pretty good food and serving size) two mornings in a row while we visited the Concord area. Bay Leaf was busy both mornings, but we never had to wait. Standard American cafe menu with a couple of special items. The Eggs Benedict came out with the poached eggs over cooked, but the rest of items on the table were satisfactory and flavorful, just nothing crazy or fanciful. I would eat here again . . . I did!
