The staff blends in perfectly with the customers - a cornucopia of fresh, down to earth people joking with the rest of us. The atmosphere is very light, with the morning sunlight accentuated by the smiles which always abound in the room. The Homemade cafe is always busy, but the staff handles the rushes with a precise and timely manner. The omletes are recommended, enormous, and along with a cup of house coffee, a perfect precursor to a Saturday afternoon.\r

Essentially, the atmosphere alone makes this place. The prices are a little over the typical college budget, but I would certainly recommend this place if you're looking for the essence of Berkeley.
