Taffi's Cafe

About

This cash-only counter spot in San Francisco serves the kind of straightforward American diner food that requires no menu explanation—eggs cooked however you want them, coffee that never stops flowing, and the sort of pie that keeps regulars coming back decades later. The worn vinyl booths and formica counters speak to decades of honest service, where the pace is brisk and the portions refuse to apologize. It's the kind of place where breakfast arrives at 2 p.m. without question and the blue plate special changes because the kitchen decides it, not because of market trends.
