A syrup-drenched stack of fluffy pancakes like the ones at Eats on Clement Street, San Francisco

Clement Street is one of San Francisco’s great eating streets, and Eats holds down the brunch shift at the start of it.

Eats is a good brunch spot on Clement Street, and the Fluffy Pancakes are the order — really solid, properly tall, the kind that make the table next to you change their order mid-sentence. Ours came with blueberries, per the receipt, per my complete lack of regret.

The Farmers Market Pairing (and Its Fine Print)

The classic move here: pair brunch with the Clement Street Farmers Market on Sundays — pancakes first, produce after, an extremely correct morning. The fine print, from experience: it gets crowded when the market’s running. Go early, or pick a market-free day if a wait ruins pancakes for you (a wait does not ruin pancakes for me).

The Verdict on Eats

  • Best for: Fluffy-pancake needs; Sunday market mornings (early)
  • Order: The Fluffy Pancakes, blueberries on
  • Damage: ~$51 for a brunch for two
  • Where: 50 Clement St (Google Maps)

Eats joins the brunch wing of my best restaurants in San Francisco list — and if you’re making a Richmond day of it, The Laundromat’s bagels and Constance’s fresh-milled matcha are both out on Balboa.
