I was recently at Gillespie Field for a meeting, and needed a lunch break. I was told there was a small cafe on the flight line, but nothing else in the immediate area, So, we went to the Gillespie Field Cafe. Wow, what a surprise! Great menu choices, especially for breakfast, friendly service, excellent food, with very reasonable prices, and airplanes to watch as well. I had the California burger - excellent. Hope to go back, perhaps for breakfast.Hi OldBigBob,Thank you so much for the good review. It is always a pleasure to hear that someone stumbled upon us and had a great experience. Please come back when you can. Peter and Roxanne.

Great restaurant, we went with a party of 9 and sat on the patio in the rear of the restaurant.We had called the day before and they had a table for us. Food was great, service outstanding. It was hot on the patio but they got a fan which helped a little.

This is a Gem fresh food & healthy. The portions are big, so come hungry or take some home. I love the acaia bowls big enough to share. The bread is freshly made. The smoothies & juices are as well. Get a wheat grass shot too. You can get breakfast all day. The ice tea is a blend of teas & really good. Highly recommend. The staff is as amazing as the food.

Use to be one of my favorite places to have breakfast. Went there on A Saturday thinking it would be A good time to revisit one of my spots. Negative. As I was about 3/4's done with my 4 egg bacon and mushroom omelet I pulled A 8 inch long hair out of my mouth. I just about put the 3/4's back on the plate. I held it together and let the waitress know about it, she said the owner wanted to see the hair so she took it over and showed her then came back and offered to take half off the dish. I just laughed it off and agreed to pay what they asked. the waitress stated that the owner was only willing to take half off the dishes that come with unexpected ingredients. I will NEVER go back to this rats nest of a restaurant.

Always busy and always great food. Large selection and they serve breakfast all day. They have indoor and outside seating and set in a great location for relaxing and enjoying your meal. A tad more pricey than some but worth the extra and they have great desserts.

My wife and I went back to the Lakeside Cafe for my Birthday, and had a fantastic dinner. Renee our server had such a friendly and bubbly personality, which was very enjoyable. My wife ordered the Beef Stroganoff Dinner which was chopped top sirloin steak cooked in a creamy mushroom gravy and served egg noodles. Served with soup or salad, and choice of dinner potato and homemade dinner roll. She Loved it ! I asked server Araceli about the BBQ Ribs dinner special and she said it was very good. And she was RIGHT ! I ordered a special dish of BBQ Ribs with a salad or soup and a choice of dinner potato with Pineapple coleslaw which was so good ! I enjoyed a very fresh salad, and a baked potato which was delicious ! The Ribs were perfectly cooked with a nice BBQ char taste with some homemade tasty BBQ sauce. The ribs were very meaty and falling off the bone tender. Both dinner dishes were huge and very nicely priced. Owner of the Lakeside Cafe Jorge, and his daughter Claudia a server came by our table to make sure that my Birthday dinner was perfect, and it was ! A Great Place to enjoy some Great Food, served with a Friendly Smile !

This is a great restaurant. The staff was very friendly. I had the pork sandwich and potato salad it was so very good. I didnât care for the coleslaw. But the bbq was so good my son had the beef brisket sandwich and really liked it. I guess it is known for its BBQ. I would recommend this place to anyone. It is busy but worth the wait.

This is a great option if you don't want to stuff your face with a dozen lobsters at the buffet. Quiet, clean and service is friendly. And yes... I paid $400 for a burger... If you count losing $400 at the slots. : ( Still a great restaurant. We will be back.
