My week doesn’t feel complete without a visit to this small-town gem. Nicole and Chuck run an amazing place, and their killer team keeps everything moving when days get busy. I can’t recommend Marvin’s enough. Try the Julia Benedict!

We ordered the Mexican omelette and chocolate chip waffle. Both were excellent!

Marvin’s offers you typical breakfast diner food with a bit of flair and spice and menu descriptions that do some heavy lifting. My definition of piles of ingredients may differ from theirs, and that is a-okay. Because what made Marvin’s such a great experience was sitting outside and watching regulars, young and old, stopping by and being served their usual, striking up a conversation, and then enjoying their breakfast or lunch. Being on a road trip, this was a great experience to see, and although we were clearly outsiders, the staff extended their hospitality to us, on par with their regulars.

Food was really good and definitely gives you a nice size portion. The service was good, only thing is the substitution of toast and fresh fruit we were charged full price for the fruit. If that was the case they should have put the toast on there. Atmosphere is ok just seating is a little cramped. You also have to go through the kitchen to get to the bathroom.

Great place for breakfast! My wife and I have eaten here a few times and enjoyed the excellent food and service. Interior seating is a little small, but they have a lot of outside seating – good for warm, sunny days! The service is superb; besides the usual attentiveness, the last time we were there we sat outside and our waiter noticed that the sun was directly on us and offered to bring out an umbrella to shade us – very thoughtful! As far as food, I usually go for the pancakes and my wife goes for an omlette, which she ranks as tops in Marin.

Great breakfast food and well worth the wait for a table. Service was friendly and efficient. Good place to eat in a casual setting when driving up or down Interstate 101 near Novato.

Passing through on a week long business trip I found this unique breakfast spot. Lucky to find a table and served by a wonderful waitress that mentioned she’s been there over 20 years. Great food (try the Hash) and great atmosphere. You won’t leave hungry.

Food as good as it was from the last time we visited several years ago. Service was friendly and fast. Portions were generous yet price was reasonable. Definitely one of the gems you would find when out in Novato.
