THE SIMMONS FAMILY and Fisherman’s Wharf Restaurants
Eagle Cafe, a San Francisco Landmark for Breakfast and Lunch on Pier 39 at Fisherman’s Wharf
Welcome to Eagle Cafe on PIER 39 of Fisherman’s Wharf, serving up some of the best breakfasts and lunches in San Francisco. This historic waterfront cafe used to be up the street on Embarcadero and Powell, but was moved to its current location on PIER 39 to be in the middle of all the amazing sights, sounds, and tastes of San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf.
Eagle Cafe, which opened its doors in 1928, is part of a suite of classic San Francisco seafood restaurants and the best breakfast and lunch spots on the Wharf, all operated by the Simmons Family Waterfront Hospitality Group. Warren Simmons, our family patriarch and PIER 39 founder, purchased Eagle Cafe from the Andreotti family in 1978, and, after gaining hard-fought approval from the Landmarks Board, put the restaurant on jacks and wheeled it down the Embarcadero from its original location to PIER 39 on Fisherman’s Wharf.
From a classic bar serving longshoremen and active-duty military personnel to one of the best breakfast and lunch restaurants in San Francisco, Eagle Cafe has a rich history and is a can’t miss experience for history buffs and foodies alike.
Almost a century after opening its doors, this iconic Fisherman’s Wharf breakfast restaurant is still family-owned and operated, from the original Andreotti family to the Simmons family. Eagle Cafe is run by oldest son Scooter Simmons and grandson Ryan, not to mention a core group of employees who have been with us for two to three decades. Whether you’ve got a craving for banana pecan pancakes, avocado toast, a classic California omelet, or a savory bowl of fresh clam chowder in a San Francisco sourdough bread bowl, you’ll find your favorite breakfast, lunch, and brunch items on the menu at this PIER 39 restaurant.
Since 1928, Eagle Cafe has been a welcome and frequented place by veterans and active military, as well as longshoremen who worked the San Francisco waterfront when it was primarily used for shipping. We are grateful for those who came before us and those who fought for our great country. Our restaurant decorations and historical artifacts are a tribute, and in some cases, gifts, from these very important guests.
All are welcome at our PIER 39 Fisherman’s Wharf restaurant and we look forward to serving you for another 100 years!
Warren Simmons had a dream to create a place for people from all over the globe to gather and enjoy San Francisco. This dream was turned into a reality when he conceptualized and created the famous landmark: PIER 39. Warren brought in his son, Scooter, and Scooter’s wife Nancy, to manage and operate his restaurant ventures on the pier. Today, over 45 years later, Scooter and his family continue to own and operate the most successful restaurants on Fisherman’s Wharf, including Pier Market Seafood Restaurant, Fog Harbor Fish House, Eagle Cafe, Crab House, Wipeout Bar & Grill, and Biscoff Coffee Corner.
