We love Sam’s Log Cabin! The best brunch place with amazing food, especially the pancakes and the French toast. They have specials everyday and refills for coffee. All the seating is outside but with heaters and it’s a great atmosphere. There might be a wait on the weekends.

They have the outside porch ambience doing a lot for them, so much so that they really don't care about the taste of their food. We ordered the chilaquiles and mac and cheese, both were just so bad, it spoilt our mood and started the day off so bad. I mean it is one thing to make a dish american-style and call it something else but its another to completely ruin it such that the customers feel cheated ordering it. Soggy tortilla chips covered in this super sweet ketchup-y sauce that even looks so bad, and tasteless mac and cheese is what we paid for. A friend got the fried chicken sandwich which was the only decent thing on the table.

It had been close to 10 years since I'd been to the log cabin. To start, I think that their bacon got even better. Proportions were more than adequate and exceptionally flavorful. Seeing as this dad covers the meals, I was pleasantly surprised (in a positive way) with the final tab and that they do not charge a fee for tables with more than 4 guests. That made it so much easier to tip in the upper 20% range. Will return soon. Thanks

I stopped going here ages ago because of the long waits for very minimal seating. Little did I know, they have closed the indoor seating and opened up their beautiful patio, equipped with heating lamps. No reservations over the phone but they nicely update you how the long the current waitlist is. We waited about fifteen minutes before being seated. To keep a good rotation of patrons, they are well staffed, ready to take your order. Nice little menu, marked with dietary restrictions. I ordered the seasonal veggie sandwich (perfect for the vegans) and she ordered the daily pancakes and orange juice. For lactose intolerant they have oat or soy milk. Food came quickly and it was perfectly delicious. Great customer service, wonderful ambiance, street only parking. Bathroom indoors where thei

Adorable!!! How I didn't know this existed is beyond me! My friend was in town from Tokyo pre-Folsom festival and we were looking for a lil breakfast, before driving to Pt. Reyes. Did a lil search and this spot looked cute as a button. Rustic with a lil outdoor garden area to sit. I saw a stage, so I assume there is live music sometimes. Anyways....food was great. I had grits and eggs...lovely. For my taste, it just needed a dash of hot sauce; but I always need a dash of hot sauce for cheese grits. I finished my plate in record time because I was famished. My friend got the Reuben (I know ...for breakfast?), but he said it was delicious and filling. Fresh squeezed OJ was excellent and pulpy and the folks working were very kind indeed. I definitely plan to go back to try their collard
