The Chronicle Savors Breakfast at Mary’s Pop Shop

Mary’s Pop Shop delievered for Virginia Wood, who visited the intimate cafe for The Chronicle this week. She thought the Belgian waffles needed a little work, but appreciated the gelato pops, especially the peanut butter and jelly one. The breakfast sandwiches, though, impressed her the most:

After a few visits to Mary's, my favorite item so far is the create-your-own breakfast sandwich option, where the diner chooses an egg style, a meat, a cheese, and some toppings served on warm toast. My personal choice is an egg over easy with bacon, Colby-Jack, tomato, and avocado ($7.99) – that and a good cafe mocha will start the day right no matter what time you order it, and the breakfast items are available all day.
