Keystone Cafe in Eugene

Wayne and I have a favourite breakfast stop when we travel to Eugene, Oregon for USC sporting events. Typically, we head down on a Friday for Saturday games. In the morning, we get up late and want a hearty breakfast to hold us over through the game until dinner. Within easy walking distance from the downtown Hilton is the Keystone Cafe on the corner of Fifth and Lawrence.

The Keystone is a small cafe that serves breakfast and lunch (7:00-3:00) daily. Sit at the counter, at an inside table or out on the covered patio. The menu includes homemade dishes of the kind you remember from "way back when." On the menu you'll also find eggless and Vegan selections. I opted for the daily special with biscuits and gravy. Wayne's "Monster" omelet (appropriate since it was Halloween) was huge and filled with ham, cheese and veggies.

There was a short line when we arrived at 10:30 in the morning. As we waited, we were invited to help ourselves to coffee from the self-serve bar. It didn't take long and we were seated at a table overlooking Fifth Avenue. The service was great considering how busy it was. And of course, it was filled with Oregon fans priming themselves for the USC football game that afternoon. -- Margy
