“Great little place for breakfast or lunch”

Big Daddy Ross's Cafe
Ranked #1 of 23 Restaurants in Bay Point
Restaurant details
Reviewed November 22, 2017

It's small and out of the way. How small? Six or seven tables and a counter inside and a few more tables outside. How far out of the way? Unless you already knew about Big Daddy Ross's Cafe, you would have no way of finding it on your own. It's located all by itself at the McAvoy Yacht Harbor in Bay Point, just past Shore Acres.

It seems a cafe has been there for some forty years, and the present owners have been running it for the last twenty or so. Not bad for a place that's practically hidden and has no current Web site. But maybe that's part of its charm. For those of us who love the place, we wouldn't have it any other way.

Most important, the food is great: delicious, plentiful, and reasonably cheap. And the service is superb. The owner and staff are wonderful people, everybody's friendly; it's a family enterprise where everybody is family.

The restaurant's only drawback: It's just open for breakfast and lunch. Still, that's enough.

Locals in this area love this place. The food is always good, prices are good. Breakfast and lunch are both delicious. Never had a bad meal here.

My wife and I love this place. After a big breakfast we walk around the marina. Classic diner food that's delicious as well as generous in portion.

Located at the McAvoy Boat Dock in Bay Point, California, this place is well hidden at the far end of the dock area but it's worth finding. We had a table for six and everyone said their order was fresh and tasty. I ordered pancakes with eggs and bacon. The pancakes were light and fluffy; the eggs and bacon cooked just the way I ordered and our coffee cups were continually filled. It's a little like going back in time to a 60's diner. There was a continual flow of customers and everyone seemed to be happy with their food. Would definitely go back when in the area.

Food taste very fresh, a lot of food for the money. I would not want this place to change. You would never expect this place to be here.
