Character and comfort come to mind when you first step into Sally and Bob’s.
The layout is reminiscent of classic, hole-in-the-wall breakfast destinations with modern, vibrant décor. There is room for the whole family and enough menu items to satisfy every palate.
“There’s a lot of prep to be done,” said co-owner Helen Brower. She and her husband, Cesar Contreras, arrive every day at 4 a.m. to begin prep work. “Chopping the vegetables, cooking the meat. We cook the roast beef, corned beef and brisket in-house. Our homemade soups, too. We make everything here.”
Along with a full menu of pancakes, eggs benedict, salads, burgers, and more, Contreras is whipping up weekly specials inspired by his Mexican heritage.
