BC Cafe- Claremont, brunch with a Co-Worker

It was two days after I moved into the new house in Montclair and the new roomies suggested this place and gave rave reviews about the pancakes! It was a typical diner like Dennys... Fake potted plants, booths, pay at the front register etc. Even the server fit the diner steryotype- old lady. Didn't look too happy to be there. Mixed up the order several times...its probably time to retire to  knitting and AMC movies and let a youngen take over... The menu was about 10 pages long and I had a hard time choosing what I wanted. I finally ordered a Denver Omelet and 2 pancakes (strawberry and peach). Look at the size of the food they gave me (see picture)! for $14 it could have fed a whole family! The omelet was to die for but once I had gotten halfway through I was stuffed. The strawberry pancake was awesome but I wasn't a fan of the peach. One thing my coworker noticed halfway through our meal was several bulletholes in the windows near our booth. Not something that made us feel comfortable and we left shortly after noticing them. Outside there was also a homeless lady asking everyone who exited the restaurant for a ride back to Pomona. She wasn't wearing any shoes. Overall the food was great but the dining experience.... Not so much. A couple things really stood out in my mind that make me reconsider ever going back. If bullet holes and shoeless ladies asking for rides aren't enough to stop you from going..... I suggest the strawberry pancakes (and share a meal with someone hungry)!
