Ashley RoseFebruary 20, 2017Visited Outerlands for a late brunch and it lived up to the hype. If you're waiting, grab a coffee at Trouble and think about how you're going to break your eggs in jail out!
Luke BornheimerAugust 10, 2016Located in the sleepy neighborhood of the Outer Sunset, Outerlands serves up creative brunch dishes all week long—the dutch pancakes and eggs in jail are popular—grab coffee at Trouble while you wait.Upvoted 3 weeks ago
Elizabeth BursteinDecember 1, 2018The huevos rancheros had a delicious and unique bean sauce. The bacon egg cheese was too heavy (bacon too thick for my taste) but overall delicious! Also got the toast w apple and butter which was👌🏻
- AdrianMay 30, 2016House Cocktails are amazing. The bread is amazing. Fantastic place for a drinks night or a romantic dinner. I loved the ambience and interior. I tried Il blonde and Old Monk and both were fantastic!
Wilson Favre-DelerueJuly 2, 2017Food that is as unusual as it is tasty, blending modern American fare with Middle Eastern influences. Laid back interior design with a modern beach feel.
Pavan KulkarniMarch 5, 2017One of the top brunch places in SF. Biscuits and gravy and veggie sandwich were really good. The cocktails were decent too. The ambiance and service is pretty laid back like outer sunset :P
Anna JamesAugust 11, 2014Eggs in jail and pork hash with eggs are so so good; fresh ingredients,super flavors and delicious.Dutch pancake with pork sausage is good, I would not order it a second time though.I love this place!
Kathy 👩🏻💻 LinOctober 5, 2014The sticky bun is a gooey combo of banana, walnuts and (optionally) bacon. But really who would get it without the bacon?
Ricky SherrillJune 11, 2016The causal "lived in" vibe makes you feel comfortable the second you walk in. Top notch bread & pastries, a breakfast menu that has a nice blend of sweet & savory is a nice way to start the day.
Adrian PhillipsOctober 31, 2015Hour wait on the weekend but it's worth it. Their Bloody Mary is exceptional, felafel & eggs was good and the salted caramel for dessert was a small, but powerful treat for the end of your meal.
Yev PusinDecember 23, 2014The quail was amazing and the lobster fettuccini was great. Highly recommend the sardines as well. All the food was deliciously prepared and well presented. Coffee and panna cotta were a great end!
Jessie SSeptember 12, 2017Jeffrey made some wicked cocktails for us. They were perfect! The staff know their drinks and foods. Even if you don't want to seat for a full dinner, grab a bar spot and order some cocktails
Bike out here on Sundays for brunch. Put your name down and go to Trouble Coffee & get toast while you wait—it's going to be an hour. Let someone else order the Dutch pancake; get the eggs yourself.
Natalie BurdickNovember 28, 2013Really warm space, perfect spot for dinner so far out in the Sunset. Menu is seasonal - so while you can, get the persimmon salad! The bread is a staple fortunately, also not to be missed.
AFAR MediaAugust 12, 2014I dream about their open-faced fried egg and bacon sandwich. They top it with provolone cheese and Anaheim peppers, and sometimes on Sundays they’ll throw on some portobello mushrooms. Read more
- Rachel EisenMay 14, 2015I really enjoyed the eggs in jail - it seems like they make have seasonal variations. I really enjoyed the bourbon spiked ginger lemon apple cider, I had it iced.
- EaterMay 18, 2012The bread, made in the Tartine style, is worth the trip alone, but don't overlook chef Brett Cooper's phenomenal soups or his inspired use of farm fresh produce. [Eater 38 Member]
Chefs FeedDecember 3, 2015"The flavors are always unique and well-balanced, and the ingredients they use are so fresh." Chef Evan Rich Read more
Travel + LeisureNovember 30, 2012At lunch there is a little menu of simple good things: a sandwich of ripe tomatoes and roasted eggplant; bourbon-laced apple cider to guard against the sea-breeze chill.
Yana PalamarenkoJune 26, 2017Amazing atmosphere, service and food! Definitely try their Pie of a Day :) I will be more than happy to come back!
Sarah MitroffMay 28, 2015This place really does live up to the hype. Their menu is fantastic and the pastries are great. The chocolate chip cookie is among the best I've ever had.
BommyNovember 8, 2014Go next door to trouble for coffee and toast to make the long wait bearable. Savory dutch pancake with smoked bacon is special.
- David RosenbergNovember 21, 2012Make the trip out here. Then put your name down and grab coffee at Trouble two doors down. Now try the bread baked fresh on site and order literally anything because its all so good. You just won SF.
David RApril 4, 2017One of the more unique brunch spots in SF. Get the Dutch pancakes (very weird looking) and Eggs in Jail. Rec to get there before 10am...and still be prepared to wait.
Sahil DesaiMay 24, 2016The dutch pancakes (savory) were really good, but honestly way too rich for my taste. I dare to think how sweet the "sweet" version is. I loved the Ginger lemon tea cider w/ bourbon.
Kait GaissMay 12, 2016Dutch pancakes & brunch! Perfect for either a cool, foggy morning, or a miraculously nice day where you can saunter over to Ocean Beach afterwards.
Justine LamAugust 4, 2013The corn fritters were delicious fried pieces of pleasure! Sweet and perfect with the salmon. Get there before 5:30 to put your name on the wait list. They'll start seating you at 6.
LanOctober 4, 2013Grab a ginger lemon apple cider at the bar and take it with you while you wait outside. Hot or iced it's amazing!
Ashleigh EdwardsNovember 10, 2013The bread here is a joy - beautifully simple with a crust has a nice crunch and the inside has the perfect rich, tangy flavor. And the duck? Eye rollingly good.
scott ...August 5, 2014They really eggcel at brunch. Split some eggs in jail and dutch pancakes with your boo thang.
Don JJanuary 19, 2020If coming here for brunch, write your name on the wait list yourself. Don’t wait for the host to do that because people who arrive after you will have their name on the list before you!- The Tastes that Make the CityJanuary 28, 2015The dutch pancakes are the best pancakes in SF, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City: SF Edition."

This is the new face of restaurants: the best ingredients, the boldest flavors and the MOST laid-back of settings. Order at the counter so table service becomes much easier on the staff. Extra seating Read more
CITY GRITAugust 1, 2014The salads – Persimmon & Compressed Fennel and the Warm Chicories – were our favorites, and the Kabocha Soup, the Octopus, and the Carolina Gold Congee all made us swoon!
Fikri FıratMay 27, 2017Definitely get the Dutch pancake, savoury with Ricotta. Don't forget the Four Barrel coffee.
- Harry HMarch 9, 2018Everything is amazing! Try the donut, grilled cheese with a soup on the side and the waffle!
Delicious cocktails always. Walk ins for dinner available, but usually at the counter which is cool!
Jordan RobinsonMay 26, 2013The quiche is served cold or at least that is what the server said & was not so hot. The open faced sandwich was great . They are known for their bread & that with the marmalade was great as well.
Ali AndersonJune 23, 2015Perfect brunch for those craving pastry-based brunch (corn bread, Dutch pancakes, quiche)
Hot apple cider w bourbon. Dutch pancake (don't forget the homemade ricotta) and eggs in jail. Put your name on the list and walk down to Trouble for coffee.
Jane RadstromMarch 19, 2016Incredible bread and butter, worth paying for. Dinner and cocktails are also very good, though this spot is best-known for brunch.
Kiana LynnSeptember 8, 2015Overlooked as an equally amazing dinner spot. Inventive and tasty dishes! Great wines.
Stephanie LOctober 18, 2014Leave your name down and then take a walk or a bike ride on the beach. Killer ingredients make for killer food and drinks.
Allison YuJuly 2, 2015Anything with their homemade bread is beyond amazing. If you don't get the eggs in jail, be sure to get a side of their levain toast
