I've been meaning to stop in here, but I forget about it. It's in that one block in downtown San Rafael that you kind of forget about a little bit off the beaten track. It's actually a very lovely appointed and decorated cozy Café with a delightful menu! There is incredible artwork- worth a visit just to view the art in my opinion! Nice interior design. I always try one small item 1st, and will return later. I had a lovely buttermilk pancake with fruit and syrup. My server was a recent immigrant from Thailand, and his name is Arm. A very excited, warm and friendly chap, and I enjoyed my chat with him. I will return next week for lunch on my day off. I hope to see you there!

Super cute cafe with good breakfast food. We stopped in on our way out of town on a Monday morning…read morearound 1040. We were greeted and seated right away. Randy ordered the classic eggs Benedict. It comes with a thin slice of tomato on it. It also came with delicious crispy, chunky potatoes. He also ordered a mocha and really liked it. I ordered the Golden Gate breakfast with scrambled eggs. The eggs were only ok - overcooked though. It comes with two pieces of bacon (decent) and a choice of pancakes, waffles, croffle (a waffle made with croissant batter) or French toast. I chose French toast, which I never do. It was really good though. I also got a side of fruit. The fruit was a small portion of berries and a couple grapes. Excellent customer service - we will definitely go back when in the area.

I had two tacos that were tasty and full of goodness. They let me get one chicken and one steak taco. The atmosphere is homie and the decor interesting.

This is a very cool spot very Fairfax, Marin County vibes…read more Casual "hiptituity", laid-back, very chill. Indoor and outdoor seating. A couple of outdoor areas, some under shade with picnic tables. Located in Marin County, California, The Lodge in Fairfax is an iconic, historic establishment built in 1908 by the Arbini and Segale families as The Old Timer's Saloon, serving as the town's very first bar. After years of being utilized differently, the building underwent an extensive two-year restoration. The owners of the San Francisco bike shop Big Swingin' Cycles purchased the property, upgrading its infrastructure, adding a kitchen, and building a large, dog-friendly outdoor beer garden. You get that feeling that you really are at a lodge at the lake in Wisconsin. At least for a minute, it brings back memories. However, in place of the white and red pine trees are the gorgeous redwoods providing shade. Nice tap beer list with healthy portions served. I had the mushroom tacos, vegetarian style with a little salad and chips $10 and a half a beer. My lunch mate had the summer salad with chicken added $25 bucks which is a little steep, but certainly enough for two people. Served in a very large bowl. It's quite impressive. I would forgo the protein and save the six bucks extra. Great spot, great service, great ambience, great food, and beer. Walk,drive your car, or bicycle in. There are a bike racks and some parking on site.

I have said this time and time again about the garden café. It is our place to go whenever we want…read morelunch or even breakfast. The food there is always consistent. You get nothing but fresh eggs, hashbrowns, and the bacon is to die for. Not to mention that you get plenty of food. I have tried everything on that menu just about. I have had their chicken fried steak, they're French toast, they're bacon and eggs. For lunch, I've tried their taco salad, prawn salad, their tacos and their chicken BLT burrito,their hamburgers, and their Reuben sandwiches. Every time I go there, I'd like to try something different and every time I'm never disappointed. The wait for a table is not that long although it seems like it's gonna be but it's not. And I have to say it's worth a weight. The staff there are so friendly that they get to know you and they are they always greet you. They know what you want to eat. You never really sometimes have to tell him what you want. That's what's really nice about this place. I will continue to go there because it's the freshest place around and I've never been disappointed. You can either choose to sit inside or you can choose to sit outside either way you're so comfortable, so make sure you make this a stop it's worth it!!

I had to drive to Fairfax to pick up my daughter from camp and she was craving chicken and waffles…read more Not familiar with the area, I looked up a place on Yelp and discovered The Hummingbird, a New Orleans based restaurant. Having visited New Orleans earlier this year, I was so excited to try this place! As soon as I walked in, I felt like I was transported back to NOLA! There were beads hanging and Mardi Gras decorations throughout the restaurant. Since it was a weekday, there was no wait and we had our choice of sitting inside or out. We opted for inside. Our server was warm and friendly, bringing us water promptly. We started off with an order of beignets. It arrived with three big pieces. They were freshly fried and doused in powdered sugar. So good! My daughter ordered the chicken and waffles, while I decided to try the everything gumbo. The chicken and waffles was huge! It came with several pieces of fried chicken that was topped with freshly minced garlic and came with a homemade spicy sauce. My daughter loved it! I tried a bite and thought it was tasty as well. She ended up taking half of it home. The everything gumbo was also delicious! It was a little thin in my opinion, but the flavor was amazing! It was truly authentic and I could taste all the seafood that was in it. I finished my entire bowl! Unlike the chicken and waffle, it was appropriately sized. When I went to pay the bill, there was a sign that said "free beignets if you pay cash." So of course, I paid our bill in cash! Luckily, I had enough cash on me. Can't pass up a deal like that! All in all, it was a very enjoyable meal! If I'm ever in the area, I'd definitely go back to The Hummingbird!
