First time trying this place, and the coffee was excellent. I ordered a cappuccino and really…read moreenjoyed it. I also tried a blueberry muffin, but it was a bit disappointing. It didn't taste freshly baked, and the texture made it seem like it may have been made with oil rather than butter. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't something I would order again. The coffee alone would bring me back, but I'd probably skip the blueberry muffin next time. Good quick service. Small inside seating area.

My wife heard about this from a friend who went to Cal Poly. Before my review I want to share that…read moreCayucos is seaside town that has escaped over development. Felt like we were in a time warp that took us to the 1970's. Ok, if you are in the area highly recommend going. We were in Pismo for the weekend and the 30 minute drive was easy at 8:30am when we left. It opens at 9am so I thought it would be good to be there then. And so did about 80 people. The line was to the end of the block. Don't be deterred. We were striking up conversations with everyone around us. You order at the window, they give you a number for the table, and they bring out your food. Look for the sauces they keep above the sugar cream station. Onto the food! We got the San Luis Sunrise (free range eggs, Niman Ranch bacon ends, avocado, hk sauce) and the Mannix Machaca (scrambled eggs, slow cooked carnitas, hk green salsa, avocado, hk sauce). I thought by the look of it that the waffles would be the winner....nope! The blue corn flour tortilla Mannix Machaca won the day! Oh, and the ridiculous smoothly the Baywood Berry. One is enough for two and they'll split it for you. Put this place on your must try list!

It was delicious, filling, and perfect for the morning. I also tried the Kicked Up Coffee, which was surprisingly good for a non-coffee drinker! Their beautifully presented smoothies are another favorite, with plenty of creative combinations. This place is always top-notch, with friendly, attentive staff, delicious food, and a clean atmosphere. Definitely worth a stop in Cayucos! And for lunch, their pork carnitas tacos are some of the best I've ever had.

I had the pleasure of grabbing some pastries at Bijou Bakery, and it absolutely lived up to the…read morehype. I was craving something savory, so I ordered the Pain Bijou, the ham and cheese croissant, and a blueberry muffin. There was a long line, but the food came out quickly once we ordered. This place sells out, and they were already out of a few pastries. I was told I ordered the last ham and cheese croissant at about 9:30 a.m. on a Saturday. We enjoyed the blueberry muffin while we waited. It was filled with huge blueberries and had the perfect balance of sweetness. It was not too heavy and instantly became a favorite. The Pain Bijou was delicious and reminded me of the flavors of a sausage biscuits and gravy breakfast. The ham and cheese croissant was really good, but for two people we probably could have just stuck with the Pain Bijou and the muffin. I look forward to coming back the next time we are in Cayucos.

The eggs were fluffy and creamy, the pastries were perfectly flaky, and every bite tasted fresh and homemade. The strawberry scone and almond croissant were especially delicious! I had a lovely tea and cappuccino while sitting on the cute patio area, which was spacious, relaxing, and very walkable to the beach. The service was wonderful too -- the ladies working there were so friendly and welcoming, and they had great music playing that made the whole atmosphere feel cozy and happy. You can really tell this place is locally owned and made with a lot of love. While we were in line looking over the menu, the staff greeted several customers by name and already knew their orders, which made it feel like such a genuine community favorite. Everything was top-notch -- 10/10, would absolutely recommend if you're visiting Cayucos!

Their coffee is what we've mostly come for and its pretty good and a good price. Their food though is just not very good. The breakfast burrito was greasy, but pretty bland even with the salsa. Tried lunch and their lunch was worse. Chipotle chicken sandwich was just a mess, sad lettuce, tomatoes that aren't ripe and overcooked chicken with a chipotle sauce. Okay flavor, but just not pleasant to eat. Tots were okay, but even my daughter wasn't too keen on them which is a shock for a 4 year old. I'll keep coming by for coffee, but will avoid the food.

Their ice cream ($5 kids, $6 single scoop, $9 double) was some of the best we've had around SLO and the gelato ($6 small) was the authentic Italian deal! We tried the butter pecan and honey churro ice cream and the mista gelato and all three were heavenly. The best part was our server who was so friendly, so helpful, and just had the best attitude. He made the visit even more memorable. The candy all looked fresh and fun - amazing considering the extensive selection of gourmet artisan truffles to vintage candy brands of childhood. This is no tourist trap. Locals and visitors, check it out when you're headed to the Cayucos pier.
