Great Breakfast! On a landing/takeoff strip for small airplanes. Loved eating on the patio, watching the airplanes. Reasonable prices. I ordered the Crab Omelet. The crab wasn't fishy at all. Very mild and good. Onions, bell peppers, Monterey Jack cheese and avocado made this omelet delicious. It was served with house potatoes and an English muffin.My husband ordered the Southeastern...

Stopped at this little gem on our way up to San Francisco this morning and what a treat! Don't be put off by the outside .. It's what in the inside that counts! Gotta try the brioche French toast, just delightful covered in fresh strawberries and blueberries. Didn't even need syrup! Great service and great food. It was too overcast... More

Yes, it's at the local airport; but seeing a plane take off or land is a rarity. Lots of interesting airplane memorabilia though. Service is friendly. Breakfasts are good size and tasty. Other meals are okay.

The location is unusual--the terminal building of the small private Half Moon Bay airport, but the breakfast is spot on. Egg Dishes, pancakes, French Toast were all prepared very well. We did not try the Benedicts (Hollandaise at the hanger?), but we did venture forth on the Huevos Rancheros and found it acceptable but not notable (we are notoriously picky... More

This is my favorite place to eat breakfast in all of the bay area. The food is fresh and so so tasty. The brioche french toast is simply amazing ! Crowded and cramped , after all os an airport cafe on the runway. Since Im a pilot , I love it even more?

Hmm, what do I like to get here? Pancakes (to die for), eggs benedict, chorizo scramble (has another name I can't remember), brioche french toast (wow), joes special, corned beef hash, chicken fried steak (oh so good). The list goes on and on. Obviously I eat here a lot. Besides the good food, the airplane decor is really cool, little... More

Located at Half Moon Bay airport, this local hangout serves typical breakfast selections with a view of small planes taking off and landing. My grandson loved to walk out to the fence and get a closeup view of "real" planes. Prices very reasonable.

Folks, this is a reliable, very good place for breakfast but it is not the # 3 restaurant in HMB. No way Jose. For breakfasts, absolutely in the top 5. Otherwise, no.

The food at 3 Zero offers really tasty breakfast, but two times now I had a bad service experience. Both times it was the manager or owner who is getting it wrong in my opinion. 1. Really rushed us by giving us our check well before I finished, and asking us two times if we needed anything else. I understand... More
