The Lakeview is a place that can be depended upon to be always open, always beautiful, and always accomodating to boozed bellies (that is, in a state of over-zealousness around 3am or a state of withdrawl and regret around 1pm).
The patio out front seats about 20 people, and is always bathed in sunshine.
If it's too hot for you out there, head for a booth inside where the decor is like a handsome man who smells of cigars--beautiful, subtle, warm and classic.
I'm a big fan of brunch here.
$3 mimosas and $4 pint specials keeps your hair of the dog affordable, and most Sundays they do a special benny with havarti and Montreal smoked meat that is just freaking mouthwatering.
Service is friendly and capable. They actually listen to you when you request your eggs over- or poached-HARD. This is a godsend for yolk skeptics like myself.
The icing on the cake--or rather, the sauce on your breakfast potatos-- is the Sweet Chili Mayo, which is always 'gratis.'
Munch dat brunch; you won't be dissapointed.
