  • Cuisines: Breakfast & Brunch
    • User Rating  
  • NileGuide Expert tip:

    Get to breakfast early if you don't want to wait in line, and go in smaller groups to ensure a table!


  • Description:

    • Located alongside the funky surf shops and bikini boutiques of bohemian Mission Beach, the Mission is the neighborhood's central meeting place. The menu features all-day breakfasts, from traditional pancakes to nouvelle egg dishes to burritos and quesadillas. Standouts include tamales and eggs with tomatillo sauce, chicken-apple sausage with eggs and a mound of rosemary potatoes, and cinnamon French toast with blackberry purée. At lunch, the menu expands for sandwiches, salads, and a few Chino-Latino items like ginger-sesame chicken tacos. Seating is casual, comfy, and conducive to lingering (tons of students, writers, and surfers hang out here), if only with a soup-bowl-size latte. Expect waits of half an hour or more on weekends. Other locations: 2801 University Ave., in North Park (tel. 619/220-8992), and 1250 J St., downtown (tel. 619/632-7662); both have similar menus and hours.

      GREAT place for breakfast or brunch!

    • My friends used to go here almost every weekend for brunch! They have on in downtown and in Mission Beach, so if you're staying in either area... highly recommend!

      This place is the bomb

    • We ate here for 5 straight days. It is that good! Great food, coffee - can eat very healthy or pig out with a huge smothered breakfast burrito. Perfect for families.
