King's Road Cafe

So maybe August isn't back with as much of a vengeance as I thought, but hopefully there'll be plenty more to come because I have lots of new places to tell you about! Let's begin with King's Road Cafe down the street from the Beverly Center. Parking is a bit of a hassle and you're likely to see several hobo's hanging around, but for the breakfast at least, it's worth it. When Chase and I tried this place, we didn't have to wait long for a table, but once we sat down, service wasn't great. They normally have an hibiscus tea, but unfortunately they were out the day we were there. Chase was trying to order a coffee drink we'd seen go by several times, but the waiter wasn't much help in figuring out what it was, and Chase had to go in and ask the barista what it was and get a new drink. As for the food, I opted for the whole wheat blueberry granola pancakes. I can't tell you how good these pancakes are. If you like pancakes, you've got to try them! I didn't use a drop of syrup and they were truly phenomenal. Chase ordered the chicken cilantro sausage, fontina cheese, avocado, and sour cream omelet. I took a bite and it was really good, but I decided I'd rather eat my entire plate of pancakes. Really, SO GOOD! Atmosphere is average for a cafe, and price is pretty standard as well. Try it folks!
