We were probably the only folks not locals. The wait staff and cooks were all welcoming and had good senses of humor. We had burgers (probably should have had breakfast instead ) and they were great. Definitely a good casual place to stop.

OK...I know Hank's Creekside is often considered 'THE' place to go for breakfast in the Santa Rosa area, and that Hank's comes highly recommended. I don't get it. The food is average at best, still-gooey-in-the-center pancakes at worst. The restaurant is overly crowded, both with people and furniture.

My husband and I stayed at the Flamingo Resort and walked across the street to Hank's for breakfast everyday. Great food in a traditional old school diner atmosphere. Servers are extra friendly. A place locals go ...which is a good sign. Extensive menu. Definitely recommend.
