    Eagle Cafe was home to my first and favorite breakfast on vacation in San Francisco. Located atop Pier 39, I worried it might be a tourist trap, but the reviews kept me hopeful and the menu sounded delightful. We stopped in not long after they opened on a Wednesday morning, and we were easily seated. Our server was friendly and prompt. I ordered the California omelet, which was soooo good! The avocado in it was perfectly made, and upgrading the potatoes to include the sour cream/bacon/chives mix was the correct move. My mom had the sourdough French toast with bacon, and she also enjoyed her meal. She tried some of mine and also loved it. For drinks, she had the strawberry lemonade and I ordered their blackberry breakfast mocktail - the perfect complement to my dish. The vibe was chill and relaxed, and the prices were reasonable, especially for SF. I'd 1,000% return on future trips.

    Blackened salmon salad.  Amazing
    Lei H.

    Very pleasantly surprised by this place in pier 39. We came here because of the good yelp reviews and it didn't disappoint. It's right next-door to fog Harbor Fish House on the left side by the entrance of Pier 39 on the second floor. The menu is a lot more casual, and I like both the inside and the outdoor seating. we sat outside in the shade, looking towards the Ferris wheel and just had a wonderful lunch. - blackened salmon salad was divine definitely getting that again. A very healthy serving of avocado and salmon was cooked perfectly five stars. - the fish wrap with cod was pretty good a bit more rice forward not enough fish but the french fries that came with it was yummy I would probably give that a three star We also had the bloody Mary beer, which was delicious plus some iced tea and some Dr Pepper overall just a very nice experience we would definitely come back and maybe bring our kids as well

    Chilaquiles from Eagle Cafe
    Chris W.

    OMG what a hidden gem. Hotel Zephyr recommended. This was spot on. Upstairs, pier 39, opens at 8:00am. Wife had the burger egg sandwich, I had the chilaquiles and coffee and hand squeezed OJ. The meal came out looking like it was prepared by Gordon Ramsey. Beautiful. Both meals were delicious!!!!!! staff super nice and professional. very clean establishment. Came back and ate at Fog Harbor the next evening. Swordfish! Yes! Raw oysters from Fanny Bay BC.

    A great location for lunch on Pier 39. Our party of four was seated quickly on a busy Sunday afternoon. The waiter was attentive and checked in on us during our meal. The Cheeseburgers were cooked perfectly to medium as we requested. Lively atmosphere with San Francisco history and views of the Skywheel. As a native San Franciscan the Eagle Cafe is my go to spot to take visitors.

    My wife wanted to eat at a non chain place in SF in Pier 39. We decided on this restaurant named Eagle Cafe after my wife searched on Yelp for their reviews. You had a choice of eating outside or inside but bc it was a chilly November morning we decided inside was best plus we had a friend with us as well. The outside seating is a bar type seating so third person would be left out unfortunately. Their service was perfect & on point. They seated us right away took our orders ASAP. My wife was the most picky one bc of her current dietary restrictions but it still worked out for us nonetheless. Our omelettes were average. At least my wife could order it without dairy & the gluten free English muffin was good. Our friend's crab cake benedict looked very fried. He added all kinds of sauces to his entree especially his fries. Lol His strawberry lemonade looked delicious!! Our neighbor's chilaquiles looked really tasty though but they mixed up their entree right away. So no pics for Yelp:-( Their tables were set up for pretty close to each other like inches away. My wife didn't care for that. She prefers more privacy. Would we return maybe but normally we don't come to Pier 39 when we are in SF. We did prepay for parking bc it is tough to find parking in SF. My wife purchased a parking lot that was a five minute walk away from Pier 39. Their bathrooms were quite limited. Only two for the entire restaurant. You need to plan ahead as my wife had a long wait for it. They did have restrooms throughout Pier 39 though. It's a touristy place we haven't been to in years. We only came bc we had business to take care of in one of the stores at Pier 39 so we needed to kill some time & eat some breakfast. It was getting filled up fast tables wise but at least it was clean, tidy & a holiday atmosphere bc of the Xmas decorations inside & out. It did go well for us however & we were thankful. If we did return we would sit outside & enjoy the view or sit by the window if possible. My wife noticed seagulls flying by customers while they were eating outside. So be aware!

    Avocado Toast with eggs, tomatoes, red onions with a balsamic dressing, and sprouts, side of house fries
    Jenica N.

    If you are looking for a great place to eat for breakfast open at 8, fast seating, great service, great food come here! The food and coffee is hot and delicious! There are so many times I have gotten avocado toast other places and the avocado is hard and unripe, not here it was soft and buttery and delectable! 10/10!

    Fish tacos
    Bethanie C.

    No wait time for a late lunch. Great location right on the pier. Delicious clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl - just what we were after. Also had the blackened salmon salad - ask for hot stuff on side if you don't want it wilted. Friend enjoyed the fish tacos. Everything was excellent. Parking/Discount w our hotel concierge card.

    Bar top

    After an hour on the ferry, we needed something quick, so we stopped into Eagle Café and had probably the worst lunch service in recent memory. To make a long story short, we got our appetizers and ate them before we even got a water and vodka Cran. Our waitress was unhelpful, the manager was even less enthusiastic, and with three people behind the bar, they couldn't even hold down a lunch rush. We saw people across the bar ordering drinks and getting them quickly while we still waited. Terrible service, No friendliness or warmth, skip this tourist trap.

    Crab Cake Benedict with potatoes
    Rome K.

    Great brunch spot with nice views! I can't remember the service too well because it has been a really early flight and I was running on about 2hrs of sleep when we arrived in SF, but I don't remember it being terrible for that's a plus, right? I ordered the crab cake Benedicts and the banana pecan pancakes-- huge portions! Everything was delicious. Everyone else enjoyed their meal also, sad we didn't get a chance to stop in again before we left, but it's on our list next time we're in town!

    Salmon BLT

    I think I can honestly say that the overwhelming majority of the time I visit San Francisco, I dare to be a tourist and visit Pier 39. Of those visits, I think I almost always eat here for lunch (it's connected to Fog Harbor for dinner) and have her to be disappointed. They ate filling, not horrifyingly priced given their location, very spot on with their service, and good arrived correctly and quickly. Personally I love the salmon BLT, but I've learned I must be VERY hungry to finish it. Since they are located at the entrance to the pier and in the second level I imagine many walk right past them. Do not. They are very much worth the visit. Also, it's a busy restaurant/cafe but I would not say they are loud. You can hold a conversation in a filled restaurant and not need to shout. (As an addendum, I got the tiramisu in an act of hunger and it did not disappoint! House made!)

    Can I order a Cappuccino with my breakfast?

    We only have drip coffee. You are welcome to grab a cappuccino from Biscoff Coffee Corner across from us and enjoy that with your breakfast.

    How long is the brunch wait on Saturday?

    It all depends on your party size and time you arrive.

    I didn't know you offered free parking. How does that work?

    We offer 1 hour free parking in the Pier 39 parking garage right across the street from Pier 39.

    Is corned beef hash back on the menu?

    Unfortunately we have not put it back on the menu. Believe it or not it was one of the slower selling breakfast items.

    Do they still have breakfast sandwiches called scooters and are they still 5 bucks?

    no, nothing at $5.

    Do they take reservations?

    We are not currently taking reservations.

    I have subscribed to other CSF and Sea Forager is by far the best. I have a "Neptune's Delight"…read moresubscription for 2 people every other week. I love the packaging, and the fact that fish is on ice rather than surrounded by those frozen plastic packets (which end up in the landfill). The fish is packaged in environmental "friendly" bags rather than in plastic. They also deliver at the beginning of the pickup period (i.e. The pickup range is 3:30-8pm, and it's at my pickup point at 3:30). That is different than other CSF who deliver sometime within their published pickup period. Now about their seafood. It has been nice to get clean cut fish, not something that looks like it was hacked from a larger fish. Everything is fresh. They send you an email letting you know what you'll receive. They also have recipes. The last item I received was 4.5 dozen mussels! I look forward to doing business with them for the foreseeable future. Just an aside. My daughter took a sea foraging tour with Kirk in 2012. She raved about how knowledgeable he was and recommended him to me. I, unfortunately, did not follow through. I found Kirk just by chance when the person whose home is used for deliveries asked, on NextDoor, who might be interested in a fresh fruit CSA. I'm glad I did.

    Totally sold on them after a 4 week trial. * Seafood is SOOO…read morefresh. You can taste it. * I get to learn about how fish is caught, who caught it and how to cook it. I feel like I'm learning about the sea and the food, which is awesome. * Bonus that it's family run, they're super friendly and well meaning, give you great flexibility and they're funny too and down to earth * Super easy to order and trial, lots of pick up locations. Summary: can't go back to eating WF/Molly Stones/Costco fish no more. Uh uh.

    What a gem amongst all the restaurants in Japan Town! It's in the outside center near the…read morestationary store Paper Tree for reference. Been here a couple of times already and the service never failed. Even came here during the Cherry Blossom Festival and the staff were still friendly / accommodating. They even put a spicy sauce on the side of one of the katsu plates when we mentioned that my dad couldn't handle all that haha. This cozy spot mainly focuses on katsu plates, but I like how they had off menu or specials to choose from if you'd like another option. I will say though them katsu plates were just chef's kiss. The meat is pounded thin enough where it's still juicy and tender, but doesn't affect the exterior from being crunchy and a bit flaky. Nothing was dry here yallll! I also like how it already comes with miso soup and salad. Huge fan of that Hamachi Truffle special though. Think of a citrusy flavor from the ponzu, fresh fish, a bit of micro greens, and a thin slice of jalapeño that just ~works~ on a cute wooden spoon that you want to steal I could honestly eat like 5 spoons of this. I'd skip on the calamari as it was kind of skimpy to share with a large group. Only note was that their fried katsu curry was a bit underwhelming with having more slices of carrots than potato! Would love to come back if I am ever in the area.

    Ganji is a solid spot for katsu in Japantown! The service was excellent--the staff were friendly,…read moreattentive, and quick to take our orders, which made for a great dining experience. The miso soup was a delicious way to start the meal, and when my katsu arrived, it looked amazing. The meat was hot, tender, and the portion was huge, so I definitely left full. My only suggestion is to ask for the curry on the side if you like your katsu extra crispy. I had the curry poured over it, and the breading got soggy pretty quickly. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is the price. My dish was around $30, which felt a little expensive, although I can understand it given the quality of the meat and generous portions. Overall, it's a great place if you're craving katsu, and I'd definitely come back--just with the curry on the side next time!

Located inside of the Ferry Building a short walk from the Embarcadero BART station and Hyatt Regency.. this establishment is a treat. From customer service to flavor and a really simple menu of delicious comforting foods from chowders, fresh salads, fresh fish, homemade chips.... You name it. Today was a Saturday around noon... this place is popular however the line moves quickly. You order at the counter, receive a holder with your order number and wait to be served. We ordered ours to go because we knew we wouldn't be able to finish it all. Seating indoors is VERY limited- but there is seating right outside of the building or outside but be prepared to stand by for a seat. We waited no more than twenty minutes for our order. We both got the smoked albacore tuna melt on crunchy sourdough. Bread toasted to perfection- comes with your choice of Gruyere or cheddar cheese or BOTH (duh) and sauerkraut which I've never had on tuna. Nice smoky flavor- great proportions without being messy and the sauerkraut added a nice bite without being overpowering. I added the seaweed chips to my order. Homemade chips cooked to order seasoned with seaweed- crunchy texture and umami flavor. My friend's hubby got the Bay shrimp/egg salad on milk bread with fries. Forgot to ask how it was but guess it was 10/10 since he devoured it a day ahead of his race. This is a no frills - what you see is what you get- seafood market and restaurant. Cooked fresh- can't wait to return to try the fish chowder. Check them out!
