The chilaquiles are delicious! The chips are the perfect texture piled onto crispy hash browns and then topped with eggs your way and red onions, sour cream and scallions. The milk shake was delicious too! Old school like what you could get at a soda fountain in a drug store. Real ice cream blended into milk and topped with whipped cream. ( part of the cream was removed in the photo as I had given it to my dog- and he approved of it too! ) The service was excellent. It is a laid back atmosphere in the village of Del Mar. We ate outside as we had our dog with us. They even poached an egg for my dog that I added to his kibble. Harry's Coffee Shop is very dog friendly in both the La Jolla and Del Mar locations. I like the laid back atmosphere in Del Mar and will continue to be a patron there! read more

I love that Harry's is now in Del Mar. I always frequented their La Jolla location. We were seated immediately and well waited on. The weather in Del Mar is appropriate for outdoor seating. You really feel the great oceanside ambiance. The food is very good, one of my favorites for brunch. Crispy hash browns. Great scrambles. read more

First time in Del Mar village, and was so happy to stumble upon Harry's! Super cute little coffee shop + breakfast restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating options. I ordered a 2x2 (two eggs and two pancakes), as well as a dirty chai (a chai latte with a shot of espresso). The pancakes were so fluffy and delicious! Eggs were scrambled per my request and the dirty chai latte was served piping hot. Such good food! My server was super friendly and encouraged me to stay and work from my table for as long as I wanted. Good WiFi. Great experience! read more

This will definitely be my go to breakfast spot whenever I'm in Del Mar, the food is delicious, from the pancakes to the homemade hot sauce and latte . The location is really the icing on the cake, it's a short walk to the beach, perfect to burn off calories and to take in the beauty of San Diego. Staff is friendly, prices and portions are decent . I highly recommend this place and can't think of anything to complain about. read more

8/26/2025 - My first time visiting Del Mar and I stopped in Harry's for a little coffee and bite to eat. I sat inside for a little break from the sun. What a fantastic place and awesome service. I loved the oldies decor and classic diner atmosphere. As a treat, I ordered the affogato and my server gave me an extra scoop of ice cream on the house. So sweet! It was a late birthday gift to come to the beach with my bestie! We like to celebrate all month long! Haha. Sat at the bar area. The windows all around allow you to have a great view outside. After a few bites of the cinnamon roll, I headed back out for a walk and to check out a few shops nearby. So glad I tried the (huge) cinnamon roll from a local bakery. It was flaky and cinnamony- is that a word?! lol I definitely needed to walk off some of the sugar calories I'd just enjoyed. 1/13/2026 - I'm baaaack! I could not stay away from CA for a whole year. Haha. Yes, I visit my bestie when I can and wanted to come back. Got the French Toast this time and WOW! So good! It tasted as good as it looked! I also got myself another affogato. Those two espresso shots will keep me going all day long. Everything is so good. Amazing service again. Love the atmosphere, too. It's comfortable and welcoming - not at all pretentious as I have heard of the area. Fueling to for more walking on the beach. Go check them out! They're a staple of Del Mar! read more

Food: 9/10 Service: 8/10 Ambiance: 9/10 This brunch place is on the corner in front of Seagrove Park. It's a beautiful place with both indoor and outdoor seating. I was worried that the food wouldn't taste as well as their cute aesthetics but to me, it was great. I hate when brunch is salty but this brunch was perfect. Very nutritious, and I loved how they know what the people want. They KNOW we want sweet and savory, so to most of their savory menus, they have a side of pancakes, AND IT'S GOOD? read more

I've been reluctant to try Harry's here for two reasons: we loved the former restaurant at this location (Americana); we were not a fan of Harry's when we lived in La Jolla. Well the old vibe is still here! It was nice sitting down for lunch in the familiar surroundings in this historic building. For lunch, I had the The Ruben (5/5 $18.99), a closed corned beef sandwich on grilled rye bread with Swiss cheese, 1000 Island dressing, and sauerkraut. This is a classic New York City deli sandwich, and, as I told the manager, the best one I've had since moving to the West Coast 25 years ago! A nice house-made coleslaw (4/5) came with the sandwich, and I had a choice of French fries, onion rings or green salad to accompany my sandwich. I chose onion rings (4/5), which were very good. My beverage was black coffee (3/5), which had good flavor but was bitter. Service was good. Overall, I'm glad I broke down and gave Harry's a shot. I'll be back. read more

Love Harry's vintage cafe vibes with a classic breakfast. I've been to the La Jolla location so was excited to try this location. We were able to find parking close by. As soon as we walked up the hostess and waiter greeted us upon entering and were seated right away in the best booth. We ordered our favorites which were the cafe mocha, hot cocoa, and something new horchata latte. All were made to perfection. Our favorite dish by far is the corn beef hash ordered by someone in our party and I was taking bites thinking we should have ordered another one. I ordered my Benny which is a waffle and eggs Benedict, the patty melt was moist and flavorful. The only reason for the 4 star is the poached eggs were not runny. Other than that I would definitely come back to this location and Harry's as it is our favorite breakfast place in SD. read more

My husband and I always love to explore new places. This restaurant nailed the food; it was very tasty and fresh. I totally recommend this restaurant. The ambience was great, but the waiter was just OK. Overall, I will give it five stars, and I would definitely try this restaurant again. read more

Why have we not been here sooner?! This will now be one of my go to brunch locations! And I'm a bunch snob by the way. One of the reasons I haven't been here is because one my favorite brunch spots is Stratford Court, which is very close to this restaurant. I've been to Harry's coffee shop in La Jolla but it's been over 20 years ago. Anyway, my father-in-law was having a birthday and I thought, oh we should go try out Harry's coffee shop in Del Mar. We walked in on a beautiful sunny Monday morning and it wasn't crowded. We felt like royalty. We got to take our time and figure out what table we wanted. There was fresh flowers on the tables. The staff was so kind and caring. My father-in-law got a complimentary birthday cinnamon roll even before we got our meal. I ordered the eggs Benedict because I wanted to try the hash-browns. They were perfectly hot and crispy. At the end of our brunch the owner was so sweet and gave my father-in-law a Harry's Coffee Shop ball cap. He was beaming. If you haven't tried Harry's, I highly recommend you do. You won't be disappointed. I'll be back! read more

We went for a walk along the railroad at Del Mar planning to get ice cream at An's Hatmakers, but it wasn't open at 11 so we decided to go to brunch instead. We tried walking to the Stratford Cafe but couldn't find a table and didn't want to order, pay, and be stranded, so we walked up to this place and thought we would give it a try. We loved the outdoor seating! We each ordered a waffle special and they were delicious. The service was great and we liked the coffee too, which we are both picky about. We will be back! read more

Cute brunch place with a retro vibe. The restaurant is situated on the corner of the street and somewhat narrow inside but it works. There's also outside seating as well. Friendly service. I ordered the corned beef hash which came with an over med egg. This also came with a perfect chewy pancake which was very good. This was a very filling meal. My daughter was happy with her tuna melt and fries .. she said it was delicious. And my friend ordered the chicken salad sandwich with onion rings. The sourdough on this sandwich was dry so she just ate the chicken salad inside . The onion rings were very good though. Simple American food that hits the spot. read more

Had a decent lunch here. Im only knocking stars for two reasons. The fries were absolutely horrible and our server didn't offer anything in return for them. I mentioned to him about the very bad taste, and he said thats because they only have one fryer and do everything in it. He didn't offer to substitute either of our fry orders for anything else, and when the check came there were no discounts. He saw that both orders were untouched and left on both of our plates. Other than that, the coffee tasted great and the sandwiches were killer. read more

I came by this spot for a quick breakfast while working and it is definitely a busy little spot. I have been a handful of times and I notice that it takes a little bit for someone to come over and get you a table so I always feel a little odd to be standing there with no one coming up to greet you. I decided to go for the BW Benny and honestly it was just alright I didn't fully get the hype of it and I love a benny. I also got a side of hashbrowns which honestly is the reason I go there because they are some of the best hashbrowns I have had. There is a small inside area to sit at and outside seating in front of the restaurant. I have been to both locations and I will say I enjoy the La Jolla location more but I tend to be in Del Mar more and feel like this is a good brunch spot during the week since not many spots around here have breakfast or brunch during the week. read more

Used to bail out of first period and come here in high school - 40 years ago - I don't live down here anymore - down for a few weeks and thought I should give it another try - still pretty good, though I think the syrup was better back in 1985 - the waitress was hard to catch to pay - but it was fun to eat here again and see the old pictures and reminisce read more

This a wonderful spot for breakfast and lunch! We opted for lunch and I had an awesome Iced Latte and we shared a Reuben sandwich and a Turkey Bacon Avocado sandwich . Both tasted wonderful. The turkey in the sandwich looked like it was taken and put on the grill top for a little sear to it and that for some reason really made it stand out more so than other turkey sandwiches I've had. The Reuben was spectacular! Both came with Cole slaw and seasoned fries. I will say that the fries had a corn tortilla taste to them that wasn't expected that I did not care for. I think they either needed to change the oil or possibly they fry many different things in the same oil. Other than that it was awesome as well as the service which was awesome. On the corner, great place for outside people watching! read more

We're locals (e.g. live in a coastal community nearby), yet haven't been here since it was known as Americana. Our long awaited return didn't disappoint. Plenty of seating options @ 11:30 on a Sunday including outside, inside booth, and counter. For chill lunch vibes, we dig the counter option. We decided upon an AP and a Dr Pepper (dry Jan/Feb, plus day drinking never ends well )to wash down a classic chicken salad sando + side salad that we split. We'd thought we put in for toasted sourdough. Sando was delivered non-toasted. Totally fine and didn't make anything of it. Both the bartender/barista, our server and manager (owner?) couldn't have been more responsive, accommodating and delightful about the nontoasted bread. We were appreciative of their making it right. And they went a giant step further and removed the sammy from our check. Tool cool and honestly a meaningful gesture in what is such a tough business. We tipped for what would have been a full check without even thinking about it. Thank you! No question, it most certainly will not be another six years before we return. Want great food, and stellar service? Check it out! read more

We stopped in for a snack before checking into our hotel. My toddler can be a handful at times but they were very nice. Service is slow and a bit inattentive but the food was good. Actually it might have just been our waiter because the other waitresses were bustling around us and we saw them more frequently. We didn't eat much but the portions are massive. I was impressed with the jam they served with the croissant as it was very tasty. My son liked his milkshake ok but I think it would go a long way for a kids meal item to be in a kid friendly container to eat from. Just a suggestion. The fruit bowl was huge too but a smaller portion with less of the melon filler fruit would probably be tastier. Restrooms were out back and dingy but they had a changing table which was nice to see. The patio is dog friendly too which is another plus. read more

Harry's new location in Del Mar has a cute but modern diner aesthetic. We were able to get a reservation for a Saturday morning for a group of 8 which I very much appreciated. The cappuccino was smooth and bold. There were gluten free bread options for the French toast and sandwiches. The food was delicious and our server Gerry was friendly and attentive. The prices were high for breakfast food relative to some of the portion sizes but not unexpected given the Del Mar location. read more

Revisited in November 2025. Food has measurably improved. There is a roving busboy which helps to clean the place up. Still needs 1 extra server/busboy to help. Diner near us asked for water, and got tired of waiting after 10+ minutes, got up and left. It took 3 requests for staff to stop by to pay the bill, which isn't great. This was at about 11:00 AM on a Wednesday, so not "peak traffic hours". 1 extra person I'm sure won't "break the bank", given that the prices have really jumped here. In fairness, they've gone up everywhere, but WOW - $25+ for basic breakfast??? read more

Two star. The food was standard café fare--fine, nothing memorable. The service, however, was unbelievably bad. A coffee was brought out and left to go cold. Other people at the table asked for coffee and got it. I asked for coffee and it never came. No one checked on me, no one brought a check. I eventually went up to the counter to pay and stood there for several minutes while they fumbled around for change. All in all, one of the more pathetic restaurant experiences I've had in the last couple of years. The only reason this gets two stars instead of one is because the food wasn't terrible and I didn't get sick. so it's a café. It's in La Jolla. It serves food. read more

I ate here once ten years and had the green eggs and ham. It was so good i decided to go back after ten years on my latest visit to Del Mar. And im so glad i did. I had the supreme omlette and it was incredible. They must have used three or four eggs. It was made on a griddle instead of a pan as it was so neaty folded over with several layers as only can be done on a gridle. The hash browns were nice and crunchy. And the coffee was wonderful. I wanted to go back for dinner but sadly they sre only open for dinner in the summer. I will definitely return on my next visit. read more

Classic retro style diner in Del Mar is a good place to enjoy a weekend breakfast. The classic corned beef hash was a must try especially with the pancake.

Location is good and that's the only good thing I like about this testaurant. Typical diner food. They charge extra if you want pure maple syrup or else you get the fake maple syrup with high fructose corn syrup. There are so many other good breakfast restaurants, it's hard to justify dining here again. read more

Harry's Coffee Shop - 2x2 + Hashbrowns - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Del Mar, California

My family has been in La Jolla since the early 1990s and is where I luckily grew up. We have been to the original Harry's of La Jolla countless times over the years because it's a true landmark for breakfast since 1960. I was extremely surprised and happy to see they opened this second location where on the coast side of HWY 101 where Americana used to be so we stopped in for our first time this past weekend, a few days after XMAS. The interior has a very similar look to Americana and they still have the wall of windows which is nice when there is a breeze and they open them. Inside is not very large but they do have some seating outdoors in front as well. Parking can be tricky in this part of Del Mar depending on the time but eventually a street spot will become available. Try parking in the neighborhood behind this shopping center. Our server was very polite and we only had to wait about 3 minutes to be seated for our 9:30 Sunday brunch. The menu here is very similar to the La Jolla location and has a lot of great options on it. For this visit I chose the Chilaquiles and added Carne Asada. The green chili sauce on the bottom added a great flavor and the carne was seasoned just how I like it. They cooked the eggs perfectly and overall I loved the dish. I would highly recommend to anyone in the area or to any other La Jollans who have not tried this new location yet. read more

I came here twice for breakfast during my work trip. The service was great (I had the same guy both times and he was friendly and engaging with guests). On my first visit, I sat outside and had one of the egg white scrambles. On my second visit, I had the green eggs and ham. Both visits I had coffee and sourdough toast. I highly recommend this spot! Price was affordable, service was great, and food was delicious. read more

This was my first time at the Del Mar location, and I absolutely loved it! The location is right on the Coastal Highway, and has great indoor and outdoor seating. It's a perfect spot for brunch while walking around. The indoor area has an adorable coastal diner vibe, but we sat outside since it was such a beautiful day out! I ordered a black drip coffee to drink, and it was delightful! Not too strong or anything. To eat, I ordered the Turkey Avocado Bacon and Cheddar Sandwich with fries, and it also came with a side of coleslaw. The sandwich itself was amazing! The bread was toasted perfect, and there was a hefty layer of turkey! The fries were also crispy and so yummy. I know that coleslaw is a bit of a controversial topic, but I am personally a big fan. This was a great classic example of coleslaw, nothing crazy but still good. Overall, it was a great experience and I would love to return! read more

We've been really needing a great breakfast spot in Del Mar and I think Harry's is our perfect match. The menu has a HUGE selection of options, truly something for everyone- breakfast classics like pancakes, etc and brunch options like sandwiches, quesadillas and salads. The coffee is also excellent, I've been here a few times now and the lattes are always perfection. I think they are known for their breakfast chicken sausage? Ive tried it twice now, and I actually don't really care for it. Both times I've ordered it, it was too burnt for me. but everything else I've had here was wonderful. Definitely will be back again and again! read more
