Mo's Midtown Restaurant
One of the most popular local places for a Saturday morning breakfast is Mo's Midtown Restaurant, home to pancakes that use real fruit and home fries that any regular will recommend as a must-try. When it comes to eggs, the huevos rancheros, a Mexican style breakfast of fried eggs served on hot corn tortillas and smothered in cooked salsa is a popular choice, along with the eggs Benedict. The prices are affordable and the food is well worth the cost.

Quaker Diner
The Quaker Diner is a 1950s style diner that serves nothing but breakfast, including French toast, omelets, pancakes and a great cup of coffee. Most people come for the 2-2-2: two eggs, two bacon strips and two pancakes. The piece de resistance is that they have Moxie cola, one of the first mass produced sodas in the United States.
