I actually really like this place! Yes, it's divey, barsy, and sits in a rather "sketchy" area but the food is plentiful, very tasty, and the taste buds are very appreciative when I come here for breakfast. I recommend the 1/2 Planet Cure. Sauteed onions, peppers, mushrooms, pork sausage, with 2 eggs, topped with sausage gravy (or salsa & cheese, if prefer a different option). More than enough food with a little bit of everything you could want in a breakfast. I personally get a biscuit on the side with the meal!
Some of the downside, I have tried a couple of their burgers and they are decent but I tend to think they are little on the dry side (at least the times that I've ordered them). Perhaps the cook is smashing most of the juices out in order to get the burger to cook quicker. Still has some flavor, just a little dry and will have to rely on some of the condiments to get it down the pipe easier. Also, not a big fan of fresh cut fries. They are greasy, never crunchy, and get cold FAST. So, if that's not your thing, try their tots, onion rings, or a side salad (if you prefer the healthier option) instead.
The service can be a little displaced. Sometimes it's on the spot and others you can be waiting a minute...or two...or five. It just depends on who's working and how efficient they are. Seems like the server is the "all-in-one" in bar-tending, taking orders, and cleaning at the same time. The only other person there is the cook. It can be a little frustrating at times, especially, if you're "hangry".
The Daily Planet primarily serves up a solid breakfast at a very affordable rate and definitely worth a try, in my opinion, if nearby. -

The best bartender works there, Heather. She is the best because she has put up with my shit for over 3 years now. Yes, this is my neighborhood Cheers. It really is exactly that too. You have the regulars, ponderers, gamblers and yes the tweekerz.
It actually is a pretty decent family atmosphere. Kids are aloud until 9pm. Last night me and my gf tried the tri-tip dinner special. $12.95. Came with 2 sides and texas toast. Will post a pic!
We love the lady cook that was working. Our steak melted in our mouth!! So many good options for bar food here. Also try "The cure" for a good hangover cure. -

All the signs for advertisement (including the one on the venue window) states BREAKFAST ALL DAY. We were so craving pancakes. I called to make a to go order but the phone just rang, so i actually went in to order and planned to wait for my food. Once i was finally approached by the bar tender (i sat at the bar for several minutes) i was told that the cook didn't want to make pancakes because they would take up too much space on the grill! After i begrudgingly changed my order, i was again told that the cook was not making ANY breakfast. Worst customer service ever. So disappointed.

Nice little bar! The staff is friendly and they make some decent food.
It could certainly use a little remodeling but it has everything you need in a bar.
They also have a new CBD beer that is made from pot which is unique bog in flavor and ingredients.
2 pool tables and some fairly good sticks to choose from.
Heather is a great bartender
