Tables are very clean and well sanitized overall experience is very pleasant. Price are descent for the zise of each plate. read more

My favorite breakfast spot. Delicious food and wonderful service! I've never had a bad experience

I've been to Bills Cafe many times but the most recent time was this past Easter Sunday. We visited early in the morning where there was no wait time and my party of 4 was sat right away. Shortly after, we were greeted and waters were brought. Drink ordered were placed soon after. After reviewing the menu and made up our minds, our food order was placed as well. Food was served, enjoyed with the family. I ordered the crab cake Benedict with my Paloma mimosa. The other plates in my table consisted of the country fried steak and chilaquiles which were both great and enjoyed. We had our table our chit chat, ordered pancakes for dessert and overall we enjoyed the environment, speed of food being served and attentive service provided by the restaurant servers. read more

I used to enjoy Bill's, but each time I visit over the past few years, I like it less and less. Last Friday I ordered a California Eggs Benedict. The 'hollandaise' was thin and unappetizing, but worse- they put only about a tablespoon on each of the muffins. Pretty weird. (I almost took a picture, now wish I would have.) I flagged down our server and asked for some more hollandaise sauce. She forgot. After almost 10 minutes, I got up and approached a worker near the kitchen and asked him. He kindly brought it to me immediately, but my food wasn't warm anymore and an $18 order of cold eggs Benedict wasn't what I had hoped for. My friend had polished off most of her breakfast already because I told her not to wait. The whole meal was a series of this sort of thing and added up to a 'meh' experience. For instance, I avoid bread and saw they had a special offering of eggs Benedict on slices of sweet potato instead of an English muffin. That looked great! I asked my server to have the chef substitute my English muffins for sweet potato slices in my California Benedict order. She said she couldn't because 'the special had different toppings'. Huh? I offered to pay extra for a few slices of sweet potato if that was the issue, and then just hold the English muffin. She said she couldn't do that either. Why not? Disappointing. read more

This is hands down my favorite brunch spot in the Bay Area. I've been to all of their locations, but when I'm in Pleasanton, this is my go to for brunch/lunch. The customer service is amazing all around, from the hosts to the servers to the bartenders. Everyone is always friendly, welcoming, and on point. The food is ALWAYS A1. My favorite is the steak and eggs, and their freshly squeezed orange juice makes their mimosas even better. I usually stick with the original mimosa, it's just perfect. I tried the flight (shown in my pic), but I always order the original. I also love their eggs Benedict, pancakes, chicken and waffles, and omelets. Honestly, I haven't had anything on the menu that I didn't like. 10/10 recommend, great for dates, family, solo dining, etc! read more

Food is normally good, but today we did not have a good experience. Burnt bacon. See picture. A family member came here a few weeks ago and the server added $50 extra tip that was not approved. He noticed it a few weeks later after checking his credit card statement. He had to come back and dispute it and Bill's Cafe response was " oh, people normally don't check their credit card statement". Really?? Make sure you ask for a receipt and check the tip amount. Not coming back here anytime soon. read more

Second time here. This time with a larger group of family. We waited around 20 mins on a busy Black Friday. I had the California omelette, subbing jalapenos for the tomatoes. One daughter had the chorizo scramble with lemon blueberry pancakes. Others had omelettes and scrambles. Pancake sides were yummy too. Everything was delicious. Even though they were busy, service was consistent throughout. read more

Finally tried Bill's Cafe for Sunday breakfast! Wow, this is a great spot. First off let me start off by saying the service here is amazing. The moment we sat down we had someone asking if we wanted coffee and drinks and they delivered our food very quickly for a busy morning. The inside is large and lined with tables and booths, perfect for larger parties. We noticed many friends and families were there celebrating birthdays. Our group ordered the egg white Denver omelette with hashbrowns, chilaquiles with country potatoes, the huevos rancheros and a stack of chocolate chip pancakes. We were stuffed! Large portions and everything was cooked perfectly. The standout of the meal was definitely the pancakes, they were so fluffy. Our mimosas and Bloody Mary were mixed just right. Also if you celebrate your birthday there they sing to you and give you a shot? LOVE IT. read more

We came here on a weekend day and they said it would be a 15-minute wait but it turned out to be more like 5 minutes for 2 people. The food can be pretty good depending on what you get. But I was surprised by the veggie scramble had very little flavor to it. So much so I had to order a side of salsa to add some flavor. I also ordered it with crispy hash browns but the hash browns were not crispy. The pancakes were pretty good though - we ordered the cinnamon roll and lemon ricotta pancakes and both were pretty good. My partner said his cowboy skillet dish with chorizo was fine, but it wasn't his favorite. This place gets really busy and they could improve their logistics a bit. I called to try and get on the waitlist on the way there only to be told I had to be there to check in. But it turns out you can get on the waitlist on Google. However, the line time estimates are not the most accurate either. So that could be a hit or miss. read more

The place was bustling for a Monday morning, but we were seated right away despite the crowd. We ordered the California Omelette, Salmon Benedict, and Chicken & Waffles -- all very tasty! Definitely looking forward to trying more from their breakfast menu. The restaurant was impressively clean even with how busy it was. The bathrooms were well-stocked, and the floors weren't greasy or slippery like you sometimes find in high-traffic spots. The staff moved quickly, stayed friendly, and kept things running smoothly. Overall, a great breakfast experience -- delicious food, clean environment, and wonderful service! read more

Friends took me out to Bill's Cafe for breakfast as a thank-you for helping them on moving day, and it was the perfect way to start a busy morning. We arrived shortly after they opened and were seated quickly, which was a great start. The restaurant had a comfortable, clean, and welcoming atmosphere. I ordered the chicken steak and eggs on my buddy's recommendation--and since it's one of my favorite breakfast dishes, it was an easy choice. I couldn't have been happier. The portions were generous: two plates came out, one piled with the chicken steak and another with the eggs and hash browns. Definitely a hearty meal that kept me fueled for the day. The only downside was the coffee--it wasn't very strong and the flavor was just okay. On the flip side, the orange juice was excellent. Fresh, bright, and so good it honestly made me feel healthier just drinking it. Overall, a solid breakfast spot with big portions, friendly vibes, and a great start to the day--especially if you've got work ahead of you. read more

I came on a Friday around 9:30 am and was able to be seated rather quickly. Our waiter was attentive. Definitely a cozy feel. There was plenty of parking but I can see it being difficult to park if it's crowded. I ordered the crab cake Benedict and it was perfect. I loved that the crab cakes were still crunchy and the eggs were made perfect. read more

Bills is a solid choice for breakfast. It can get busy but if you go early you'll breeze in. I opt for the outdoor seating. It's quiet and plenty warm under the enclosed canopy with heat lamps. The service is consistently good. It's a rare occasion that water and coffee/juice aren't offered as soon as you are seated. My favorite dish is the lemon blueberry pancake. It's a lot of food, so I typically get a to go box and they actually are a yummy treat later! Most pancakes wouldn't make the after breakfast snack but these pancakes are yum. I haven't ordered anything but the pancakes. Hey, I like what I like- so I keep going back. I can say other dishes looked very nice from my side of the table. read more

They need to answer their phone!!!! It rings incessantly and no one answers it. Super off putting while trying to enjoy breakfast. And their acid rock music sucks. Food is good but you just can't enjoy with the overload of unnecessary obnoxious noise. read more

Came in on a rainy Saturday morning and were happy to be back at Bill's. We had the usual with corned beef hash and a chocolate chip pancake, the huevos ranchero, and the Petaluma scramble with hash browns and a pancake (instead of toast). I forgot that the pancakes at Bill' are really good! Service continues to stand out here. read more

Came in on a Saturday morning before 11am. There was a line but we were seated immediately since there was only 2 of us. We tried the special Lumberjack skillet with a side of lemon blueberry pancake (instead of toast for $2.75 upcharge). The skillet has all the possible meat in there chorizo, steak, bacon, jalapeno, onion, 2 eggs, country potato. I have to say the pancake was sensational. The skillet was also good but not the lemon blueberry pancake level. They are expensive but nowadays, going out anywhere is expensive. read more

We are back now that there is Google waitlist available. It is miserable waiting under the heat and sun if there is no waitlist. I also found that there are less people waiting outside the restaurant this time around. Service and food were good. We didn't feel rush from the waiter even when there are people waiting outside. Yay to Bill's! No egg surcharge. I still see this surcharge from some other restaurants. read more

I came to Bill's Cafe for my birthday. The wait time was under five minutes, the servers were kind and courteous. It was busy for a Monday morning. I had the Belgian waffle with powdered sugar on top and a side of bacon consisting of three pieces, that were delicious. The bacon was crispy just how I like. Bill's Cafe is a popular spot in Pleasanton, especially for breakfast. read more

While visiting the Bay Area, we were searching for a brunch type place. We saw all the reviews for Bills and decided to give it a shot. We went on a Monday and there was no wait. The service was 10/10 with super kind waiters. The food was wholesome and delicious. They serve you basic hot coffee in mugs with unlimited refills. The inside was like a mom and pop iHop with all the condiments ready on the table. Located in a shopping center there is plenty of parking. Overall, everything was great. read more

We went there this morning to drop off our car & my husband suggested breakfast since we were in the area. I said why not & we've never been . Bill's Cafe is located in Pleasanton tucked away in a corner and lots of parking . The restaurant upon entering is very very clean & well lit & very simple decor which I like . Simple & minimal is better . We ordered the steak & eggs & extra eggs for me b/c my husband wanted 3 eggs w/ his steak . It was all perfectly cooked the steak needed some seasoning like salt & pepper but we both were ok b/c we added to our tasting so it worked out . We were greeted by a friendly young lady with a friendly smile . Our server was attentive & nice but I honestly don't remember him introducing himself . It's all good ! Looking forward to our next visit & trying out some more of your yummy breakfast entrees . read more

First time going here and it was good. The wait is extremely LONG, but the food is good. Our server was helpful as well. The Pleasanton location is settled in a plaza which is helpful when you have to linger (and wait for your table). I'd go back for sure. read more

Breakfast with the girls this morning! Not too busy for a Saturday morning, but definitely late morning it started picking up. Nice and quiet, but very casual. The service was great, very attentive and patient server. Water was refilled quickly without having to ask, and dishes were picked up fast. I ordered French toast with scrambled eggs and sausage. Delicious and thick French toast. I devoured my entire plate! read more

Make sure to join the waitlist online before you come to the restaurant! It's a very popular spot and you'll likely have to wait 20-30 minutes on any given day so it's worth making arrangements ahead of time. Service was nice and friendly! Came with a group and we ordered the buttermilk pancakes to share. They originally came out with the wrong order of the pancakes (strawberry oat pancakes instead of buttermilk pancakes with strawberry on top) but they were quick to bring us the right order once we pointed it out. I had the breakfast burrito and was able to add avocado at no extra charge! They have a nice array of hot sauces at the table which is a nice touch. Large portion sizes so you get the bang for your buck! read more

We joined the waitlist and when we checked in they told us it would be 25 minutes. We waited 45 minutes and they give us the crappiest seat which is right off the entrance. When we asked if we could be seated somewhere else, instead of telling us that they'll priorotize us, they refused. We left. I hate restaurants like these where they put seats that should not be there. And their staff has no sense of customer service. Like yeah, I want to seat where people can see me eat and hear the entrance door open and feel the cold air. read more

I came on a weekend and didn't have to wait too long to be seated, but I can anticipate that it could get very crowded if you come at a busy time. My family ordered an omelette, scramble, and eggs benedict. I definitely recommend family styling although I know that's not really the culture in American dining -- about halfway through my omelette, I felt like it was definitely very heavy and so did my brother who got the scramble. HOWEVER, the reviews are not wrong about the benedict's here -- they were just the perfect amount of filling while staying light and flavorful. I highly recommend the benedict if it's your first time here. Overall, ambiance is like any standard American brunch spot, with plenty of shade and coverage in their outdoor seating area. If I were craving a hearty breakfast again, I would come back! read more

My go to breakfast/brunch lunch spot in the Fremont area. I love how they've have so many options from a yummy fat breakfast burrito to their classic breakfast scrambles or sweet French toast. Wait times can be long on the weekends, especially if you are a big party, but the smaller the party the less wait times. Service is quick and friendly. Def a must if you're in the area. read more

Very busy on a Saturday morning, which was expected, and the service was great with friendly staff. However, I was disappointed with the food overall. The pricing didn't feel justified given the portion size and quality of the dishes. Unfortunately, it just didn't match the value I was hoping for. read more

We always stop here when we're in the Bay Area. The food is really good but a disappointment was that their Chicken Sausage has a pork casing so we couldn't have that and they don't have Turkey Bacon either. Would be nice to have a non-pork breakfast meat option. The pancakes were awesome. The overall consensus was that the Strawberry Oat pancakes were the best out of the ones our group ordered. The Spanish Omlette with original pancakes was awesome. Everything was well seasoned and the extra butter on the pancakes made it even better. The service was good. Will I/A be back the next time we are in the area. read more

I also got coffee and they were really good about coming around to refill that. Overall, would definitely come back when I'm in the area. read more

It's not a great place to go if you're on a diet, but everything is so delicious you may decide to scrap your diet and start again Monday.
