Dad's Cafe

We've been going to Dad's since they first opened in Antioch and now in Brentwood. Breakfast food quality has gone down from what used to be a 5 star rating. Pancakes - tough, everyone is exactly the same size as the other and a little sweet. Nothing like they used to be. It seems like the pancakes are premade/frozen and they just heat them up on the grill. Crispy bacon which used to be really great - the bacon quality is not as good as before, small skinny pieces and rarely crispy even when asked for. Service is always a 5 star but the food quality is off. Hope they get it together so we can return some day.

Went about a week ago. 2 people ahead of us were seated no issues. When it was our turn the owner or manager asked my wife and i for our Vaccination cards. He never asked the other people seated before us for proof. We pulled them out and he just said ok. Didn't bother looking at them. What was the point of even asking for them. Rather take my business to Black Bear dinner . Just wanted to flex his power. What a clown

Great food. Comfortable and simple good old fashioned diner. The front door has a sign that says masks are required, and all the employees are wearing them . . . except for Dad. Come on Dad, follow your own damn rules and wear your mask. I know it's your joint but wear your mask and be a good role model for your employees and customers!

My wife and I go to Dad’s at least 4 times a month. It never disappoints! The food is delicious, the servings are large and the service is friendly and efficient. The owner is always there overseeing the operation and making sure that all goes well. We love the atmosphere with the quiet 50’s music playing. It’s like a trip back in time. We are so happy that Dad’s was able to survive this past year and wish them much success in the coming year!
