We came to try their gluten-free pancakes and waffles. The corn flour waffles were a bit too grainy and tough. The rice four pancakes were good, but not the best I've had. I was glad they also offered gluten-free toast. However, the menu has toast served with potatoes, which is too much starch for one meal. The place was tiny and cute and service was good. Overall nice atmosphere with mediocre breakfast.

Really nice people and delicious food. The coffee comes in a cute large mug. They were able to make the California Benedict for me without diary or gluten. Not so great area of town, but very comfortable inside

Love Way Station! Neighborhood gem for sure. Great place to hang out with friends or just chill and read in the back, which has been like an oasis over the last year and a half. They make great coffee and have a really nice selection of wine, craft beers, and cider to chose from. The food is yummy homemade fare. Especially love that you can get breakfast anytime. Their keto breakfast is the bomb. Two fresh eggs, amazing gluten free toast, perfectly ripe avocado and some apple slices. My new favorite breakfast out. I also love that you can get a nice juicy impossible burger. The folks who work here are super nice. If I lived in the neighborhood, I'd be there every day. It is worth the drive from El Cerrito. Two enthusiastic thumbs up.

Delicious food & good service. Potatoes of my dreams served here! Crispy outside, fluffy inside, with a savory-tangy topping. Dairy-free and Gluten-free friendly. Been wanting to try a new spot for brunch, so we came around 11. Not sure what a soft opening is- I'm just happy to support a local business. Everyone else was curious too, because it was a full house. Luckily, we got seated at the bar since we were party of 2. Our food took a while, but to me that's not uncommon since we were there at peak period. While we waited, we got to witness good teamwork btwn staff attending the needs of a packed Sunday crowd. You'll be in good hands. Looking forward next visit.

Love the heck out of this place! Hazem and Mudrakers are a real find. Ample outlets at every table and where else can you get a student-friendly coffee, massive salad with meat & cheese and Middle Eastern platter for around $20? Great for study, meetups & chatting. Have gluten-free options as well!
