Stopped in for lunch on our way to Reno. Adorable place. Local art on the walls. Too bad the food did not live up to the first impression. Mediocre burgers, the broccoli cheese soup was broken, which means the fats have separated from the sauce, resulting in a watery mess. Service was Ok. Cell phone use is not allowed. Which is fine as far as talking, but what if you want to quietly check your messages or get some work done? read more

The food and service were good, but the establishment loses points in the "value" category. It's just a bit more expensive than the alternative a block or so away, where the food is just as good, in my experience. read more

Went there for breakfast this morning, what a treat. Excellent food and service, great coffee and a warm and pleasant atmosphere. Had the 2 egg & sausage patty w/ wheat toast( real and grainy, not balloon bread). Eggs spot on, more than ample patty, and perfectly done red potatoes seasoned nicely ( like Goldilocks). Drank 2 cups of coffee and they filled my travel mug for free! Wish this place was in my home town!!! read more

We have been here a few times and It's delicious. The staff are happy, fast and always accommodating to my substitutions and adds. Definitely a place we enjoy coming to. Love the atmosphere and pleasant people. read more

I really want to give it a 3 1/2 stars. It is a very welcoming place with a fire going in the wood burner. We got to choose our seating, difficult choice - fire - window? I ordered the California egg which is an egg, cheese, avocado on a bagel. I asked to have the bagel separate with cream cheese and it seemed to not be a problem. My spouse ordered the Tuscan egg which looked delicious and was very good. The reason for the 3 1/2 is I can see that mine was really meant to be an avocado sandwich with a little bit of egg and a slice of cheese. The bagel came with plenty of cream cheese, a bit much for me. Overall I would visit again with a better understanding. read more

Patti's Thunder Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Quincy, California

Driving thru Quincy on a Saturday morning and decided to stop for breakfast. Looked like a cute place. We were seated immediately. We each ordered an Omelette from the menu and drinks. The busboy had a horrible smell of body odor. I really couldn't get past that. He also forgot our drinks and we had to ask at least 3 times. The owner turned on the air conditioner full blast (it was only 65 outside), I suspect it was due to the busboys BO. But that made it entirely uncomfortable. After asking a waitress if they could turn it down, she asked us to change chairs at our table but wouldn't turn it down. We did. It didn't help. Finally when our omelettes were delivered to our table (after 45 minutes), the owner saw us shivering and asked if we wanted the air turned off. Duh! Finally she turned it off. The omelettes were good. The service and ambience were awful. However, it was breakfast. And it was open. I'll grab a muffin and coffee from Safeway next time thru. read more

I really wanted to like this place. :( -2 stars for bringing late and burnt toast (I'm talking super hard, mostly black, and no butter kind of burnt). -1 star for an over priced ( $5 ) super tiny fruit cup. The place is very clean, very friendly, and the rest of the food was good. Just avoid the fruit cup and toast. read more

Stopped in for lunch after hearing about this place from a friend. Service is very friendly and food was yummy! Between us we had a good cross section of the menu and everyone was happy. I had the best BLT I had in a very long time read more

Fabulous food and great service every time. My family comes here when we are in town. The oatmeal is exceptional. Stay away from the cafe on main street! read more

Staff is fabulous, food is fantastic and a great location to walk around town for a bit. Highly recommend! Not to be missed!!!

Perfect spot for traditional American breakfast. Very pleasant service. Very pleasant outdoor seating if you don't mind the traffic through the "heart" of Quincy. just what I was looking for in a quiet Sunday brunch. read more

Looked forward to eating here because of good reviews. Unfortunately, it was a poor experience. Service was slow, had to ask twice to get one coffee refill, fork had old food stuck to it, pancake was raw, bacon burnt and prices were high ($3 to add meat to a breakfast and $2 for a one egg??!!) read more

Stopped here for breakfast. So glad we did. Service was great. Prices very fair. French toast was very good and nice and warm when served. Omelet my husband had was huge and very good as well. My only criticism is the fried potatoes served with his omelet had an odd taste. Would eat here again. read more

Passing through on a road trip, we were hungry and after many miles came upon this quaint little place. We were pleasantly surprised at the reasonable prices, great food and service. The coffee was especially good, and the portions were very generous. read more

A lifelong favorite. Wonderful, hearty portions, casual atmosphere, friendly people.

It used to be great. The new owners raised the prices and decreased the quality and portion sizes. Got sick after eating there. Go to Pangaea for lunch instead! read more

for a small town, breakfast options are pretty limited from bad to good, so we tried this place and to my suprise it was actually on the good side, my gf had chicken fried steak and I had a breakfast burrito with scrambled eggs and potatoes, when we got the food delivered it was very nice looking and tasty for each meal.. a good place to go when stopping in Quincy.. read more

A group of us from the High Sierra Music Festival traditionally go to breakfast together on Sunday, the final day of the annual fest. This place has a lovely, slightly sunken outdoor patio, mainly for couples and small parties, but inside can accommodate larger groups. Of course there is usually a little wait, but even with 7 of us, we waited only 15 minutes and were seated next to the window with a nice view of the patio as well as the rest of the restaurant. Everyone was friendly and the waitress brought us mango mimosa (custom made, a glass of champagne with about a shot of mango, perfect!) and took orders right away. Omlettes French Toast, Waffles, and cakes... They accommodated several substitutions without a problem. The only critical comment would be that if you wanted a side of beans, or beans were part of your meal, they only had refried, and whole beans were not available. 2 of the 7 of us cleaned our plates, but the others took some home; the portions were very generous. $98 before tip for 7 hungry folks. -- Lots more available for more lunch oriented crowd read more
