We went to the Drake Cafe for brunch this weekend, having been there twice before. Reservations are pretty much a must after 11:00, unless you're prepared to wait. Service is great considering how busy they get and staff are hip and friendly.
Now for the food. Fried chicken and waffles are ok, traditional 3 egg breakfast is just that...traditional. They used to serve a dynamite jalapeno cheddar biscuit which is no longer on the menu, much to our dismay.
Overall, the food is average but what makes the Drake for dining is the large bustling patio and secluded, funky Sky Yard.
