Editorial Review for Mecca Cafe – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
Mecca is considered a dive by some, but it's certainly a cool dive. The narrow confines of the bar are frequently packed with an engaging mix of regulars, many of whom leave their artwork on coasters which adorn the wall behind the bar. The adjoining diner is lined with vintage vinyl booths and most of the decor has remained unaltered since the cafe's inception in 1929.
The Draw
Stiff drinks at fair prices attract a mix of hipsters and blue-collar workers. The late-night scene can get a little rough, but the general vibe of the eclectic crowd is surprisingly harmonious. Hungry revelers looking for fuel can't go wrong with the menu--everything from the classic French dip to the contemporary cobb salad is made from scratch and consistently executed. The kitchen also turns out some of the city's best breakfasts, thanks to top-notch ingredients like thick-cut bacon and fresh-squeezed juices.

this place is great... stand in line with a friend on a busy weekend morning and they'll let you know that any four top that comes in behind you will be seated first. i love such honesty! also, their scrambled eggs come with not one but two pieces of hair. and it's long hair! i can't wait to go back. this is the hippest place i've been in a while.
