This is the best brunch I've ever had. The SEC sandwich was perfect, no notes. Service was friendly and prompt while not too serious. Plenty of places to sit and the ambiance matched the service. Will absolutely come here again and recommend anyone give it a chance if you're looking for some great food!

Fantastic breakfast option in North Park. Banana Split waffle and Spring Onion fritter sandwich were super high quality. Side of Bacon was crispy and perfect. Excellent value too. Vanilla cold brew was huge and yummy.

Good Measure is the recent rebranding of Atypical Waffle in North Park as the new ownership finally changed the business name. The setup remains unchanged as you walk through a corridor next to a laundromat to reach this eatery. The kitchen is located inside an Airstream trailer, and all of the seating is outdoors but under cover. The current hours are from 8 am to 2 pm on Thursday to Sunday. I think there's a plan to expand into evening hours and even hosting occasional events. The food menu was made up of sandwiches, waffles, plates, and sides. For beverages, coffee, tea, refreshers, and lemonades were the categories. I selected a SEC (Sausage, Egg, Cheese) Sandwich and a Subtropic Lemonade for my to-go order. Goat cheese, fig jam, pickled onion, and arugula were the toppings that went with the sausage and egg on a croissant roll. I liked the contrast from the pickled onion and arugula to cut through the richness from the SEC components. The lemonade was a refreshing blend of strawberry and pineapple. I would be interested to see how the menu evolves to beyond brunch offerings over time. For now, I gave a four star rating for my takeout experience at Good Measure.

The cutest spot in North Park. I love the casual outdoor dining. The decor is so fun and unique. Amazing breakfast options whether u want sweet or savory. I often come for both! The coffee and matcha are also delish. U rly can't go wrong picking anything on the menu A+ service all around. The staff is super friendly and love talking about the space and the neighborhood.
