This place is just consistently great. The food is really good, there are tons of espresso options, and th outside seating is really charming. But what really stands out is the service. They are over the top kind and attentive. Especially the greeter who always helps us get an easy seat four side with our dogs. read more

Curbside Cafe - Cinnamon roll - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Vista, California

Consistently delicious. Everything we order is prepared well. Service is pleasant and efficient. A go to restaurant..

The owner is very nice. Staff works hard and very friendly. Portions are large. Prices are good. And selection of drinks is amazing

The food here is always great, and the staff is wonderful. I will say that breakfast for my family is about three times what it used to be, but that is pretty much the case everywhere these days. I do think they could bring the kids meal prices back down to a reasonable level. My kids eat a few bites of bacon and eggs and I think the kids meal was $12. read more

Breakfast here was delicious! They have indoor and outdoor seating. Staff was friendly and prompt. We sat inside due to it drizzling outside. I ordered a veggie omelette with potatoes and the cinnamon coffee cake. The coffee cake was delicious! The cinnamon is throughout the entire cake and on top. The omelette was light even though it's 3 eggs. The potatoes have caramelized onions with them and were delicious. My sister ordered the waffle and was happy with the flavor. There are multiple vegetarian friendly omelettes which is great for us non meat eaters and they also do a tofu scramble. Prices were extremely reasonable. The outside seating area is dog friendly. read more

Love coming here as much as possible after the gym. It's one of the few places open so early and the vibe is so friendly if you come enough you'll get to know all the other regulars if you so choose. I usually split my breakfast with a friend as the food is plentiful. Staff is happy to be there and it shows. The owner, John, is usually in the kitchen and is always involved. It's the "Cheers" of the breakfast crowd! The area is also a joy to walk around should you come later for lunch. read more

The best "ordinary" person restaurant on the planet !! Awesome food, awesome service, home like atmosphere. We've been coming here for years and it's never changed. Not much you can improve on. My recommendations are Chorizo Huevos Rancheros and Salmon Eggs Benedict. Get the country potatoes. Trust me !!! I can't do spicy, but the Huevos Rancheros I can handle. Sweat a tiny bit, not overly spicy. Mmmm.... read more

The Curbside Cafe is a wonderful place for breakfast and lunch. John, the owner, runs a great team of servers and the food is always delicious no matter what you order. Highly recommend this off the beaten path in Old Vista next to the theater. read more

I recently moved to vista and couldn't wait to have my first breakfast outing. Curbside is in a cute neighborhood. The kind you like to walk around and window shop.

A vista classic but a bit overpriced for typical diner food. The service is always fantastic though, they truly take care of you! I like their early bird special, but even then you're paying quite a bit. read more

Delicious and affordable café for breakfast and brunch. I tried any country fried steak this morning and it was great! I was craving toast, but I should've had a steak first while it was crispy. Drinks are affordable as well, with a vanilla latte under four dollars when it would cost about five at another shop. Friendly service, parking can be rough Since it is our street parking. read more

This is me and my daughters go to place for breakfast. Everything is delicious and the coffee drinks are fantastic. Be sure to try the cinnamon rolls. The staff is professional and the place is well managed. In and outdoor seating but be prepared for a short wait on weekends. We can't wait to go back soon. read more

Extremely disappointed in this place. My boyfriend and I walked in and a kind lady greeted us and told us we could sit anywhere. My boyfriend and I opted for sitting outside. Before we even got outside a waitress insulted my outfit (maybe trying to be funny), I was very taken back by that. We arrive outside and sit down, that same waitress ended up being our waitress. I don't know what her deal was but she continued to insult be and make fun of me when she first came over to our table. Even calling me names like saying I'm "nuts" over my outfit. She wouldn't stop I really wanted to speak up and say "can you please stop insulting me" but I kept my mouth shut because I wanted to have a good breakfast. Afterwards she decides to do her job and finally ask what we would like to drink I order an ice tea and once again she gives me a dirty look and feels the need to comment on my drink choice and says "... I guess I can get that for you." After we place our drink order I was fed up with how she was treating me, and could not bare to stay there any longer and got up and left. I have no idea what her problem was but if you're a bully you should never be a waitress. The only positive about this experience was us leaving because we went down the street to moms kitchen and had the best breakfast we've ever had! I'll never return to this place and I wish I got that waitresses name because no one should ever be treated like how she treated me. read more

Local spot. I work right down the street and the people in my office frequent this place often. The owner, John is constantly here working, greeting customers etc. the staff are sweet and amazing, the food is awesome. Highly recommend you try this gem anytime you're in the area, you won't regret it. read more

This is a pleasant spot on Main Street in Vista to grab some breakfast or lunch. It is popular and usually busy. We came early for breakfast. Service was very good and pleasant. We had huevos rancheros and biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs. The biscuits and gravy were not great - biscuits were a little dry and the sausage gravy kind of bland, scrambled eggs a bit dry for me. I would not order them again. The huevos rancheros were better. They have a pretty big menu so we will probably go back and try some other items and see if we have a better experience. read more

Service here is so friendly, it's refreshing. The food is pretty good and the cinnamon roll is something you'd crave. I've been here a couple of times and had excellent experiences both times. First visit, my husband and I were seated inside. Service was excellent and I highly recommend getting a cinnamon roll as a appetizer. Yes, a breakfast appetizer. Came out piping hot with lots of melting butter. So delicious. We ordered the stuffed croissant and chicken fried steak. The sausage gravy was delicious, even after reheating the leftovers. Second visit, a friend and I sat outside. Service was again super friendly. I ordered the turkey rueben without kraut and it was delicious. I could only eat half, I saved the other half for later. I ordered an iced tea and it came with a tiny carafe of simple syrup. Now, how cute is that?! Parking can be an issue if it's rush hour. But there's plenty of street parking as there is no dedicated lot. I wouldn't hesitate to come back. read more

I love Curbside! Come here for brunch every Sunday. Food is good, John and everyone that works there are super nice, and I love being able to just sit and enjoy vista! read more

Saw this quaint spot in Main Street and decided to give it a try. Met the owner, nice guy chatted a bit and realized this is an old school breakfast all day place, plus more! Tables outside (with a clothes rack of coats to borrow if it's cold in the shade of umbrella) and of course inside dining room. Plenty of seating cool ambiance nice folks, more like a real old school place where people know each other. Ordered homemade corned beef hash, eggs and toast! My daughter got the salmon scramble. Both were great.Service is perfect. Servers are nice. I want to become a regular so I'll be coming back. Love my quaint lil downtown vista where most shops are independently owned -mom and pop no big chains! Like the old days. Makes for such a better community. read more

This is a must go to for all the locals. The service is like eating at a relatives house. The ambiance is homey. The menu has many choices , all of them good. read more

This is a fantastic place to stop and get breakfast at. They have inside and outside seating, and the staff there are super friendly and ready to get you seated and eating. Our waitress was super kind and always checked on us to make sure everything was going well. My boyfriend got the country fried steak and eggs with hash browns and coffee cake, and I got the crab cake Benedict with potatoes. Both meals were insanely delicious and we both cleared our plates. I also got the snickers signature coffee drink and it was DELICIOUS (and dairy free if you don't get whipped cream!). So so tasty and the perfect breakfast bite! Definitely willing to come back again. Our bill came out to about $45 with taxes and such, so it wasn't too bad of a price for lots of delicious food! read more

Celebrating a friends birthday and she chose this place. It was my first time here and it won't be my last. I ordered the Monte Cristo sandwich with a side of fruit. CHANGE YOUR LIFE! So buttery, delicious, tender, mouth watering OMG! The cinnamon roll was also to die for. We ate it to fast to take a pic. I will be back with more family and friends and place to go orders. I didn't get the waitress name but she had the butterfly tattoos and she was amazing. Thank you allowing my taste buds to have an Incredible Saturday morning. read more

Love a chai in the morning. A walk took me to Main Street and a cute cafe. 's on the patio Breakfast specials until 9am place is obviously very popular with the locals. Love that they have smaller tables for one . Food was delicious as well. read more

I love the potato pancakes and apply butter and sour cream. So yummy! Great service as well!

Quite possibly the BEST breakfast I have ever had in my entire life. Let me start you off by saying *DO NOT LET THE LARGE CROWD OF PEOPLE DISCOURAGE YOU* This place will have you seated within seconds and the service is impeccable. This place is always a hit and thus is usually packed with other diners, but the service is so amazing, there's plenty of space, your drinks will always remain full, and the food always comes out in less than 10 minutes!!! I definitely recommended eating outdoors, the restaurant is very well decorated and comfortable in the inside, but nothing beats enjoying a meal out in the warm sun and fresh air. This place is perfect for families and young children, with plenty of seating space and many options to choose from. This morning I had the Veggie Omelet with added Avocado, fresh fruit, and coffee cake. Allow me to encourage you all to TRY the coffee cake. You won't regret it. Not to mention, you MUST get the side option of fruit, there are 15 DIFFERENT KINDS OF FRUIT that they serve you; all fresh, juicy, and delicious. Spectacular place, beautiful location, outstanding service! read more

I've been here before, for lunch. Note to self and others: don't order a swordfish sandwich from a cafe nowhere near the ocean. It was so dry. Oh and I sat outside, there were flies buzzing around, and I was sorely disappointed. Yes, I made poor choices that day. When I came for breakfast last week, I made sure to sit inside. Tables are super small and close together. The cafe has a homey vibe...everything is kinda old. Decor needs dusting. There's huge mirrors on a wall to make the space seem bigger, but all they really did was make it appear more crowded with patrons lol. The cinnamon roll is a 4 star event all on its own, but overall, this cafe is a solid 3 stars. The food quality, price and presentation are average. I had an omelette, and I think the rings of canned jalapeños overpowered the flavor. It would have been better with diced fresh pieces, or even a nice pico de gallo on top. I ended up buying pico and tortillas, and I turned my leftovers into breakfast burritos. The potatoes were cut much too big and were forgettable. I covered them in ketchup for flavor. The coffee cake was super dry!! I regret cheating on Beach Break for my coffee cake fix here!! The shining star was that cinnamon roll. It's covered in nuts, with a sugar crumble that like, caramelizes throughout. It's absolutely delicious. I didn't even try it warmed up and it was 'wow' good. Overall, I might stop in again for breakfast, as it beats Denny's any day. More than likely I will stop in and grab you-know-whats to-go. Pros: - cinnamon roll - open early - early-bird specials - lots of parking around Vista Village Cons: - not entirely fresh ingredients - mostly basic diner food - small tables, close seating - divey ambience - read more

I am a big fan of this place. Huge..so why only four stars? Well, my dear friend and I went on a brutally hot day (they have no a/c, only fans) and the flies were driving us insane. However, if you take that part out...the place is really great. My friend ordered a pretty basic breakfast of eggs, bacon, hash browns, and toast. I went a bit crazy because I was hungry...stuffed croissant sandwich (eggs, cheese, bacon, avocado), coffee cake, and their really delicious cinnamon roll that has been mentioned in tons of yelp reviews. Then the server said those magic dreamy words..."mimosas, ladies?" Everything was delicious and filling. Service was quick and friendly. I would absolutely go back but I would wait for a cooler day. read more

Stopped in for Sunday breakfast and this place was busy. There was a wait for outdoor patio seating so we opted to eat inside where it was cooler. I ordered the Peppermint Mocha and the Veggie Omelet with avo. -The PM was a bit on the sweet side and the server asked if I wanted a coffee topper. I obliged to soften the sweetness. -I ordered the veggie omelet soft with Swiss and without the asparagus. It was good, but my avo was forgotten. The server apologized and brought a side of avo. Also came with a side of coffee cake and hash browns. Both were good. Our server was nice and accommodating. Great portions, reasonable prices and lots of variety on the menu. Not the best breakfast I've had, but it's decent. Located in downtown Vista with free street parking and lot avail on the side. I appreciate this mom/pop establishment doing well and having a strong local following in this North County community. read more
