We were showing some visitors around 17 mile drive and stopped here to stretch our legs. We were hungry and had tried the Lodge last time we were there. So decided to try this Gallery restaurant. There was a sign out front advertising their sticky cinnamon buns. A picture was inside and they looked really good. Next time. We also had a dog but they allowed us to go on the balcony with her. Barking was not allowed but we don't have a barker. She just sat quetly under our table as we ate. Super nice day. We were half in the sun and half in the shade. In the sun though, it wasn't too hot. Nice breeze coming off the water. Anyways we got some waters and went to peruse the menu. Decent amount of offerings. And they cater to golfers withgrab and go options too. I got the Cuban panini. The others at my table got the chicken pot pie, half roast beef sandwich with the beef vegetable soup, and the fish tacos. For my sandwich, you can an option of sides (fries, salad, onion rings, coleslaw, chips, etc) and opted for the garlic fries, at no extra cost. Also came with a pickle and some coleslaw. The sandwich was huge and filled with lots of ham and pulled pork. I quite enjoyed it and the fries were super hot and crispy and garlicky. I had a bite of the chicken pot pie. The top was crispy and great. Food is a bit overpriced but this is Pebble Beach, so not surprising. If you paid an entrance fee to get in, you can also apply that cost to your meal cost read more

If you are ever at Pebble Beach for the car show or golf this restaurant is a for sure must go. Upstairs overlooking putting green and all that is Pebble Beach. They have a club sandwich that is just fantastic!! Service is excellent as well. read more

I am a local. I took my friend who never had a chance to go this restaurant, as I had enjoyed their tasty food and the nice service more than a few times since last fall. However, I was disappointed with the food that we ordered this time. Too sour sauerkraut, too salty and hard turkey burger and too hard mud pie! They were friendly, but we had more than one waitpersons and were asked what we needed to order twice at two different occasions. What is going on at the restaurant i used enjoy so much?? read more

went the during the week before the pro-am golf event. it was nice even though all that construction and set up tents were all around. Sat outside in the balcony/patio, overlooking the green. so cute nice romantic place to take a date for breakfast or lunch. take your girl/ take your guy :) he/she will love you for it. This place serves breakfast, brunch and lunch. the food was good. I would go back an try more of their food. the waiter was nice and attentive. ;) read more

The all American cuisine is delicious and so well done. I worked for the Pebble Beach Company in the late 1970's as a teenager and still hold this place in high esteem. They always offer the highest quality goods and service. Staff is very friendly and efficient. Hospitality plus with a company that cares about the well being of it's staff (family). I totally enjoyed my "Patty Melt" lunch special on Monday! So yummy ! Thank You! read more

Classic Tuna Melt! Get this. Very high quality option with a peekaboo ocean view. It's also open on Christmas Day and was very crowded! read more

Nice location but service ok, prices reasonable but the worst fish and chips I've ever had

Food is amazing! Very fresh and carefully crafted. For it being just a cafe I was pleasantly surprised. Staff are friendly and outdoor seating are spaced so you don't feel uncomfortable while you are eating during the covid pandemic. After eating it's centrally located so you can walk outdoor shops and get ice cream. Loved the chill vibe and it not being crowded here. read more

Best value eatery inside pebble beach, outdoor balcony seating is great with fresh air. Omelette for lunch has big serving, Cuban sandwich with ham and pulled pork is good portion. Service is good but outdoor seating you have to remind them to bring condiments and utensils. Would return here to eat and try their burger next time. Fried chicken burger looks huge and crispy, onion rings are good too. read more

Solid option, especially if you're staying at the Lodge and playing Pebble that day. Depending on the server, the service can be spotty and not as friendly. The food options are decent though and not out of the worldly expensive as you might expect for a cafe right by the 1st tee of Pebble Beach. read more

While on the 17 mile drive I dropped by to try the food out. The service was okay and so was the food. The prices was a bit high for the type of food that was Being served. I had the Cuban panini and the seafood sandwich. They both was just Okay, but pricy. read more

I'm no golfer. In fact, for the most part, I detest the sport. Not because dudes dress funny and spend their precious time whacking a little ball around trying to find a hole but mostly for the pollution caused by tons of fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and fungicides to keep that beautiful turf green. But there aren't a lot of places to stop along the breathtaking 17-Mile Drive and the Gallery Cafe is one of the few. So we stopped for a coffee and a bite to eat and found ourselves perched above a putting green with an overlook of the rocky Pacific ocean on an absolutely glorious day. And while some funny dressed dudes quietly putted about the green below us, we had some very good fish 'n chips with excellent potato fries and slaw to munch while hobnobbing with the other local elite diners or Joe-Schmo tourists like us. Come July/August, we'd probably be sneered upon but today, in mid-winter, we found great seats, friendly service, a delicious affordable lunch and a great view. And that's all I cared about. read more

My boyfriend and I had a fantastic Sunday lunch at the Gallery Cafe. Everything was solid and incredibly flavorful. Service was outstanding and the views are magnificent. Panoramic ocean views of Stillwater Cove and impressive views of the Pebble Beach Golf Course . We are very sad to have discovered this place right before an imminent move for my boyfriend. We are coming back in this week -- date already set-- before my boyfriend's move. He said we would be coming in here every Sunday if he'd known about it sooner. I read Kyle F's review before coming in and I must concur that the milkshakes here are amazing. They have all your standard milkshake flavors -- chocolate chip, strawberry, mint chip and vanilla -- plus a special flavor of the month. They whipped me up an off-the-menu shake flavor -- oreo cookie. Notice how I launched right into the milkshakes first lol. My boyfriend said it was the best oreo cookie shake he's ever tasted. Ice cream is house-made and so delicious. Milkshakes are blended to the creamiest consistency and devoid of big chunks, all without sacrificing flavor. It was the quistessential milkshake! The Fish Tacos were fantastic with perfectly grilled tilapia; comes with house-made guacomole and salsa. My boyfriend had the Gourmet Grilled Cheese on brioche bread with rosemary-garlic fries. Bacon, cheddar, blue cheese and tomatoes on the fluffiest, lightest and buttery brioche bread. The fries were wonderful too, not too overwhelming with garlic. Everything was exceptional! I have the next date locked into my calendar for this week. Counting down the days! read more

I felt this place was overpriced for the quality if the food. Perhaps on a nice day the view would be worth it, but when we went it was raining and we couldn't really see anything. The hot chocolate is very sweet and super good. Buttered garlic fries and the burger were adequate. The waffle pressed grilled cheese was a bit of a disappointment but the tomato soup it came with was good. The service was good overall. However we did wait for a few minutes before anyone came to seat us. Also, the burger was ordered with a pickle, which never came. By the time another server (not ours) arrived to check on our table, there was no point asking for the pickle as we were finished eating. The server boxed our food for us which was a plus. Lastly we were waiting for our payment to be processed for over 10 minutes after the server picked it up from our table. We saw another couple waiting for theirs as well. read more

I go to this place each time after we gold at pebble beach, so give or take its about once or twice a year...mostly cause the food is pretty good and its right bythe 18th hole...oh ya and they have some of the best milkshakes on the planet (easily a 5 star milkshake...even Ciara would be jealous). After a long day of golf in crummy weather this is a nice place to relax at and wind down with some good food. When my dad and I eat there its usually around lunch time and I mainly go cause they have a crazy good philly cheese steak sandwich, which I have gotten for the last 5 or 6 years...I mean why mess with what's good. This time I was ready to try something new though, and only one thing on this menu stood out and was worth the departure from the kick ass cheese steak sandwich. Honestly, Im blanking on the name of this place, but my friend who I sent a picture of it to, gave it a nice one the "enough calories to feed the entire planets model population." It was sooo damn good. The burger was on a pretzel roll and it had in it...two slices of super thick Tillamook cheese, followed by 4 strips of bacon, followed by about 5 onion rings, and then as if it could get any better...freaking slow roasted bbq pulled pork!!! Im pretty sure I messed myself the moment this think was set down in front of me. I mean this burger is what dreams are made of, the only issue, and I mean the only one, is that you need a mouth the size of a whale shark to take a bite of this monster burger. I finally just decided to go for it and it was one of the best burgers I had in my life so far, I mean the crunch of the bacon and onion rings and not to mention the sweetness of the pulled pork with the rich cheese, this burger took all that was awesome in life and placed it in one convenient area! Overall, this place has great food, great shakes and the only knock on them is the service kind of sucks and is slow, but the food makes up for it, plus your in pebble beach and it can't get much better than this! So after you've hit the links, hit up this place for a great meal. read more

The tuna melt here is divine. Loads of tuna between two heavenly slices of brioche. My partner in crime had the cinnamon swirl pancakes which were a dessert unto themselves. The service was polite and quick. Our table had a nice view overlooking the gold course with the sea in the distance. read more

When we come for our annual week in Pebble Beach year, which we've been doing for 6 years in a row, we always look forward to eating two or three breakfasts at the Gallery Cafe. So far on this trip, we've been there twice and have not been disappointed. Our server on both visits was Sanjana, who was very friendly as well as professional. The food was as good as always: Fritatta, Eggs Benedict, French Toast, Pancakes. We tried the Cinnamon Roll for the first time this year and not only very good, but big enough for 4 or 5 people to get a generous portion. The marbled potatoes side dish is excellent, so much so that we take home a few extra orders to use for meals at our rental home in PB. The Gallery is great for breakfast. read more

We really enjoyed our breakfast before our round of golf at Pebble Beach. I had the Healthy Frittata and it came w/fruit and toast. It arrived steaming hot!! Also I had a cup of tea, and it came in a tea pot plus the mug was warm! read more

Love the Gallery cafe! Finally had lunch there for the first time today. Got the tuna melt sandwich and garlic fries. So delicious. Perfectly crispy sourdough and garlicky and crispy fries. Had the basil lemonade. Very refreshing and tasty. Really nice staff and such a beautiful view! Cannot wait to try breakfast there! Definitely recommend:) read more

Quesadilla was not good! They had all these vegetables but they had a sweet taste and was soggy. They were so sweet to split the tacos and cut the third so we each had 1 1/2 they were ok a little greasy. Service was great but food not so much. We will try again and get back to you read more

Full menu of your standard breakfast items and everything was good from the omelets to the crisp bacon and toast. I would downgrade the pancakes because they tasted too much like the grill they were cooked on. Friendly staff and quick service. read more

We mainly ate here because of some lady walking in who went on about the food as we were checking out the menu. Mistake. I will say they have beautiful grounds...if it wasn't for all the badly dressed golfers it would have been amazing. Seriously...who wakes up in the morning and says... yes, today is a spats kinda day. So my wife ordered the crab n mac combo, she said it was alright but kinda bland. I had the 15 dollar triple cheese burger. I was really craving a burger... so i get it, fries were some cheap jack in the box type fries ...the burger was missing the cheese... easy mistake right? so after waiting ten minutes for our non-existant waitress i sent it back...usually i wouldn't care, but i was already walking in the valley of service hell so i figured what the hell...gimmie what i ordered. So the waitress brings back my burger...and guess what ...it has cheese! yay... except all they did was shove some cheese on it then microwave it which made the bread all soggy and mush like. The patty was basically a slight step up from frozen supermarket patty... but whatever... sometimes you get those places where if the service sucked ...ill still tip well because of the food... bland food, wrong food, badly repaired food, followed by bad service...well lets just say she should feel lucky with the 2 dollar tip for the 50 dollar tab for 2. The only reason i left a tip at all was because i didn't feel like attaining another birthday while waiting for her to come back with my change. read more

I was debating whether to leave this review or not but I think it was time because I don't want anyone else to experience this feeling. I went with my boyfriend to eat and the food was great, the service on the other hand was not. We arrived at our table at the patio and was not greeted by our sever and she took our drink order from the door as if she was too in a rush to talk to us. There was a table behind and in front of us which she happily conversed with. A young man came and took our food order but after the food was dropped off we were not checked on until they brought out the check. The only difference between us and the other tables was that we were young and Latino. I hate to play the race card but it was either ageism or racism that day. read more

Great breakfast served by Anna. Talked golf, and she obviously loves golf! Food arrived promptly, and service start to finish excellent.

I told the host I only needed a table for one and was told that it would be 1 1/2 hours to get my food. I decided to walk over to market and get a bagel and then get a complimentary coffee at the Lodge. Walked by the restaurant about 40 minutes later and saw the party of four who were behind me in line paying their bill. I guess the host was trying to maximize profit by assuring every table had four people eating. Horrible. Wonder where else they cut costs for a profit. read more

The location was nice, the staff was friendly, the food was not good...at all! Chicken sandwich had nothing special to it and chicken was dry and very thin. The flatbread pizza was terrible! It was overwhelmed with BBQ sauce and the rotisserie chicken they used had no flavor. Again, this had sooo much bbq sauce it was yuk! The Cobb salad (how do you mess this up?) had no bleu cheese as stated in the description and the dressing was a vinegar based dressing. Looked like a salad you would get prepackaged from the grocery store. Pretty outdoor seating overlooking the golf course, but would never eat here again. Two stars for friendly server and location, zero stars for food. read more

Great location and service but not so great food for the price. We ordered the grilled cheese sandwich and chicken pot pie. The grilled cheese was toasted in a waffle iron, and the top was quite dry; it didn't seem to be toasted with butter. I also didn't like the combination of blue cheese with cheddar. It comes with half a bowl of tomato soup. The soup was ok; it was hard to tell if it was from a can or fresh made. The chicken pot pie was strange - it's just some sort of chicken soup in the same bowl as the tomato soup with some puff pastry on top. Neither of those things is worth their price. read more

Great lunch spot! Loved their smoothies too. And kids couldn't get enough of their Mac and cheese, portions are large though, so there was plenty! read more

Fantastic Ramos Gin Fizz's by Cirilo at the bar. Simple eggs Benedict done to perfection. Hollandaise is the right consistency and taste. Service was excellent. Underrated for sure! read more

I loved this restaurant!! My guy and I were in Monterey for the weekend this past weekend and after a fun night at Cannery Row, we headed to Pebble Beach. After a few stops on the 17 mile drive, we ended up at the Pebble Beach resort for lunch. We had eaten at the Tap Room many times, so we decided to try something different and were glad we did! While the Tap Room is still one of our favorite places, The Gallery Café was excellent as well! We were seated outside on the veranda as requested and were immediately approached by Santos for our drink order. Awesome! Next up, Michael, our waiter, came over to see if we had any questions. We needed a few more minutes and he was capable and understood and came back once we closed our menus. He was an excellent waiter! I ordered the Chicken Caesar wrap and it was fantastic! It came with a side salad and everything was so fresh. My guy ordered the cobb salad and he said it was terrific. The ambience of eating outside was just excellent. We overlooked the area where the golfers were practicing putting and my boyfriend could see golfers teeing off from the first hole from his seat. Our food arrived quickly, Michael checked back on us, Santos kept our glasses full...what more could we ask for? We will be back!! A++++++ job!! read more

So this is the most visible of all the restaurants in the Pebble Beach lodge area. The food doesn't suck. The design and management of the place does suck.. a lot. The hostess? sat us down, and handed us a menu. And a male waiter took our drink order. About five minutes later, a lady waiter asked us what we would like to drink.. again. And at this time the male waiter was already bringing us the drinks. And this repetition and waiters bumping into each other and lapping the same things over and over again, as we soon find out, happens continuously. THE WAITERS DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING! So we waited for our food. I'm looking and doing the bobbing head thing to watch what's going on. So the cooks are displayed right smack in the middle of the restaurant, and they seem to know what they're doing. The waiters are so funny though. They would pick up the plate, act confused and put the plate back down. Pretty soon, the orders were backed up, just waiting to be distributed to customers. And I see my food right there (I ordered sliders and I could see they were just sitting there.) We called the lady waiter and asked for our food, and she said.. yeah, we're looking for it right now. But they're not. They are just kinda chit chatting with each other, these waiters. Very confused and disorganized. I watched my food again for the next ten minutes from afar. By the time it got to my table, it was cold. It's ridiculous too, that right where the waiters are supposed to pick up the food, they put a table full of customers right there.. making it hard for these confused waiters to pick up the food. So I told my husband, "we ARE NOT leaving a tip. It's a statement so they will understand that this is unacceptable." They charge $15 for sandwiches for goodness sakes! Geez, if I'm paying a premium for something that's worth a third of what I pay for, I expect good service. The food is not amazing, but it's ok. It was just cold. And their garlic rosemary fries.. they're lying. I saw nor tasted garlic nor rosemary. It's just fries.. like good ole Mickey D's fries. LIARS! false advertising. read more

Personally, I thought the food was pretty good at the Gallery Cafe - but the service is what I will give big credit to. We had a tee time at Pebble Beach, and the Pro Shop informed us of a big storm coming in later in the afternoon. Preferring not to get drenched - we decided to play earlier than we expected. However, we were both starving as we had planned to eat before playing. We hustled over to the Gallery Cafe and sat down. I kindly told our waitress that we were kind of in a hurry to play, so she was on point! She took our order and returned with my bill before the food even arrived. The food quickly followed, and it was pretty good. I had the Eggs Benedict (very good) with Hash Browns (only ok). The hash browns were a little too crisp and overcooked for my liking. But they didn't suck either. My friend ordered the Corned Beef Hash and Poached Eggs and was moaning through the meal. I think that means he liked it. I moaned like that when we got to the first tee box.... A little pricey ($24 for Eggs Benedict, Hash Browns, OJ and Tip). But it is Pebble people! But convenient, friendly and tasty. 3.25 stars. read more

Service here is great and the food is amazing. I had the marinated skirt steak salad with cilantro-lime vinaigrette and it was to die for. It is by far one of the best salads I've ever had. My boyfriend got a BBQ sandwich, which was also very delicious. Will definitely return to have lunch there. I'm excited to try more items on their menu. read more

The food was all right, probably around 3.5 stars, but the service is what really knocked this one down. My friend and I wanted to stop during 17 Mile Drive to grab lunch, and seeing that this restaurant would refund the $10 entrance fee, we parked nearby and requested a table. No one came to assist us to a table, so after awkwardly standing around for a while, we just seated ourselves. Even though the restaurant was not busy at all (there were only about 3-4 other occupied tables), no one came to take our order until about 15 minutes later. The food didn't come for another 20. Our waiter disappeared after he took our order, so we had to chase down another one to refill water/get ketchup/get the check. The baja chicken sandwich was pretty good - the bread was soft, and the aioli complimented the meat/avocado/veggies. The chicken quesadilla was decent; I've definitely had better. The guacamole didn't taste anything like guacamole though, and the fries were really thin and tasted overcooked and bland. For the price of the food here (around $16 per sandwich and 16-20 for other entrees), you might be better off bringing your own lunch and having a picnic on the gorgeous Spanish Bay or Pebble Beach. The food isn't bad at all, and the balcony views on a nice day are stunning with the gold course and seaside, but the service is what really gives this place a hit. read more

Triple-Decker Classic Club. Smoked Turkey, Smoked Applewood Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato and Mayonnaise on Sourdough Bread. That's what the menu reads - I needed to check it again on the way out. No tomato, no mayonnaise. A bone dry, indigestible sandwich that I should have sent back. But when my companion asked - 3 times - for some Tabasco sauce for her fish tacos - it didn't arrive until she'd finished. I figured I wouldn't get any response so why bother. The capper - totally burnt coffee. Not good for a Pebble Beach Resort restaurant. read more

It's weird to say that the best club sandwich I've ever had is from a café at a golf course, but it makes more sense when I say it's from Pebble Beach. Not "just" a golf course, I've learned. They offer a huge variety of lunch options, but the Killer Klub is the thing to get here. Dave's Killer Bread (the best IMO), turkey, bacon, avo, lettuce, tomato and mayo. Perfect to fuel a long afternoon of driving the golf cart ;) read more

The burger I had was amazing! I would definitely recommend this place if you are in Pebble Beach.

What a great spot for lunch! The best thing about this place is the balcony and views of the greens and the beach. It got a tiny bit chilly but a seaside lunch at the most beautiful golf course in America made it all worth it. I had the club sandwich and fries and and iced tea. The portions are very generous and big enough to share. The service is actually pretty slow, which is why I only gave this place four stars instead of 5. If you're taking in the 17 Mile Drive, and are a fan of gorgeous scenery, this is a perfect place to stop for lunch. If you bring your receipt from the gate you get a nice discount off your lunch tab! read more
