I came into Sandy's Cafe on a Sunday morning expecting to have a wait, but was delighted when we were immediately greeted by their friendly staff and taken to a booth in the back area of the restaurant with a really cute view! I ordered the belgian waffle with apples with a side of eggs and sausage which was delicious. I came with my boyfriend who ordered the Reuben sandwich and was shocked at the quality of the food for the price. I also tried a few of his fries which were perfectly crispy and delicious! Our waitress (I believe her name was Caitlin) was super sweet and attentive. Sandy's Cafe is such a hidden gem in Gilroy!

This spot feels like a hidden gem. There's a huge sign inside that says "enter as strangers, leave as friends" and it's reflective of the friendly and attentive service. The vibe was small-town feel, warm & inviting, but with big flavors. I ordered the country benedict which was savory and delicious. The sauce was well made and juicy, pairing nicely with the runny yolk. They certainly didn't skimp on the gravy either. We also ordered the short stack pancakes with strawberries and they were some of the fluffiest pancakes I've ever had. They stayed fluffy even towards the end of our meal and we all fought for the last bite. Perfect tuck-in before a trip down to Point Lobos!

In Gilroy and looking for breakfast? Sandy's is a solid choice. The "wall of service badges (firefighter, police, etc) speaks to the character of this local diner. My meal (eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, toast) was nicely prepared and served with a friendly attitude. This is a neighborhood diner - not a chain. I saw how the servers area was set up, efficient and orderly.. I didn't wait long for anything I needed and the waitress offered me things I might need and didnt just wait for me to find out I missed something. I have worked in independent diners like this and I can see they care. 10:10 would dine here again. Minus 1 star for a "safe menu" that didn't leave many interesting options for a non-traditional American diet.

Great, personal service and good deals. Not particularly fancy, but comfortable. My dining companion and I shared the prime rib special and they were kind enough to split the plate in the kitchen. Can't beat the prime rib dinner for the price.

Great spot in gilroy for a breakfast. The ambiance definitely has that homey feeling! Service was great Haley was our server and she did an excellent job. Price is VERY affordable! Our food was a little cold when we got it and left us feeling like there was not enough taste to it. I got the Joe scramble and they gave me plenty of meat and eggs just not enough taste. My wife got the Pancakes with the blueberry preserve. She also got an order of eggs and bacon which was ok. The pancakes though is what brought me to 4 stars! Honestly some of the better pancakes I've had. Nice fluffy with a great chew. If you come here HIGHLY recommend getting pancakes you won't be disappointed! I would go here again 100% again pancakes are great and so are the prices as well as the ambiance and service.
