(They have incredible french fries.) If you have a car, detour bigtime down to Duarte's in Pescadero. When we're birding the SM coast, even if the place is too mobbed to get a table at lunchtime we get a slice of pie to go and eat it on the tailgate. Fruit pies particularly recommended. OK, if you have a car _and_ lots of time. Ron the Wandering Tattler

Pescadero General Store, maybe? Country potatoes and scrambled eggs and the corned beef hash are especially good. Karen

How about Lois the Pie Queen, or Walker's Pie Shop (in Berkeley, " on Solano), or Merritt Bakery? These places all have better pie " than Nation's does. I'm not a coffee drinker, so I won't comment " on that. YES! Lois the Pie Queen. I have long had one of her T-shirts. I was in Portland at a festival one day and a woman comes running up to me and throws her arms around me hugging me, shouting "Lois the Pie Queen! LOIS THE PIE QUEEN!" Lois had a special place in my heart. Whenever I went in she used to drop what she was doing and make pancakes for me *exactly* right -- crispy on the outside and try on the inside, cooked thoroughly. Lois was quite a gal.
