    I've been wanting to visit but everytime we're in SD somehow we just couldn't find the time to visit. Until today! On our way home from our mini vacation today was the perfect day to stop by as it's a weekday and there wasn't much/ hardly any traffic we around just past 1030am and found metered parking near by immediately. When we arrived there were no other customers we got to take pictures of and with the house and motorcycle. I'm not much of a pie person the only pie I usually eat is pumpkin but I was open to any other pastries they offered. My husband wanted to try the pies and I ended up ordering my sister some to take back home. We ordered 2 sets of the 3pack. One order all apple pie the other was cherry, apple and a blueberry. I also added a dark chocolate brownie and lemon bar. As my order was ready and called the kind lady said she labeled everything and added some extra. We walked on the boardwalk for a few minutes then walked back to eat our pies at their outside cover patio. Saw that she gave us an extra 4pies!! That was so generous. I decided to give them all a try and oh my... they were all delicious. It was warm, the crust was alittle flakey it had a nice little crunch yet also soft and the crust flavor was SO delicious. Loved that the flavors were not overwhelming sweet! The dark chocolate brownie and the lemon bar were cold and didn't think anything special about it a bit in the sweeter side. Overall it was a great experience really enjoyed the pies and the service was amazing!

    I didn't try their pies since it was luck of selection but I came here for taking pics. It was cool they keep Charlie's house from Top Gun movie. There was a replica motorcycle outside and mat people taking pics.

    Cute little Movie prop house! Large cups of juice. Didn't try the pie not a pie person. Employees are nice and service was fast. It was a slow day though only maybe 8 people in the whole place.

    Cute spot in Oceanside, CA. Was told it was where Top Gun was filmed so decided to swing by to check it out and pick up some sweets. The Apple Pie was fairly small but I enjoyed it with my hot cup of coffee. Service was workers didn't really talk to the guest or acknowledge them (guest just looked at each other and was wondering when they would get help). Kind of weird. They will eventually will come up to you and take your order. I didn't come here for the service though. I love the movie Top Gun and really just wanted to check out the house and support a local business while I was there. For someone that loves the Movie Top Gun - definitely recommend checking it out. Consider walking in for a cup of coffee then taking a walk along Pacific Street.

    3 stars for the cute house and the Top Gun memorabilia! One star for service... the lady who helped us was hidden in the back for a long time when we wanted to order. She finally came out and was SO RUDE! Brought her big Starbucks out with her and grumpily took our order. The pie was just ok. Needed more filling and one was undercooked. But one was decent and I was happy to have a gluten free pie! Go to see the cute house and skip the pie!

    The Famous High Pie at the Top Gun House! Charming, beachy shop dishing out sweet and savory hand pies, most of them apple, cherry, or blueberry flavored, as well as coffee, ice cream and other desserts. They were out of everything. No pies baked, no soft serve, etc.

    Staff was nice but seemed a bit distracted by their phones. The 3 pack pies were hot and fresh, great flavor, and not too sweet of fillings. The lemon tart was very nice and creamy. I will say their display is a little off putting but rest assured they dont come out like presented when you order!

    Had hi hopes thinking the pie was going to be great as friend was raving about it. I thought it would have been hot when we got it but it was cold and doughy. It was under cook as dough was raw inside.

    These pies were delicious, cooked fresh light, and crispy. Great size for a quick snack and love that it came in 3's. Located at the top gun house so it was cool just to take pics there while you snacked on a yummy dessert. They also have lots of outside seating.

    This place is interesting because the history behind it. It was a historic house in Oceanside prior to the movie Top Gun. It was used as Kelly McGillis' house in the movie. It features Maverick's motorcycle up front. It feels a bit like the house in "Up", a tiny old house surrounded by buildings. The food is just ok. The brownie tastes like it came out of a box mix, the high pie feels like a McDonald's apple pie and the caramel apple, while delicious, there was nothing special about it. Come here for the atmosphere and the great view of Oceanside Pier.

    Adorable old house that was featured in the 1980's Top Gun movie. Service was decent. We tried the Apple, cherry, & guava pies. The cherry definitely tasted like canned filling. The apple was too sweet. The guava was my favorite.

    It's the Top Gun house! That's where they shoot one of the movie scenes. Very cute inside and outside. They sell pies that look delicious. Parking is nearby in a shared lot for only $5! The seabird resort is right across street. There's lots of restaurants on the beach and near the pier. You can easily spent half day here. It's only 1.5 hours from LA so I'll definitely visit again!

    food: not amazing but tolerable the pies were actually enjoyable in my opinion the whoopie pie was hard to keep eating - hard all around, the chocolate was almost stuck to the whip cream, an overall weird texture to deem as food service: the cashier was very patient the employee that made the food seemed a little stressed or something but she did her job, ambiance: 10/10 great vibes very nice not snobby felt like i was in a little art exhibit but where they are kind i would come back again maybe i would try the brownie it looked like it might taste good

Each reservation cost about $24.00. That includes an hour of time with the cats, and a drink/snack from the café per person. My partner got a chai latte, and I grabbed a brown sugar(?) cinnamon roll. Both were very good! Special thank you to the barista for the recommendation and the delicious drink. The play-room itself was very nice, with plenty of seating, toys, and CATS! Even with six other guests in the same hour, there was plenty of everything to go around. As with any group of animals (and people), each had their own personality and preferences. JC stayed perched on the palm tree and loved to get pet. The older Bengal cat didn't like being touched, but was a joy to watch. Tatiana (pictured on the table) was slow to warm up to us, but loved to play with the cat dancer. There were about ten cats altogether. The employee inside clearly cares about each cat. He explained the rules clearly, shared the names and habits of each kitty, and was a pleasant guide. Thanks for a great start to our afternoon! See you again soon.

I chose So Fresh and So Clean, which exactly was the taste when I sipped this drink. The garnishing was minimal, so I was a little disappointed that the presentation wasn't that great. I ordered Just like candy and I loved the candy garnish as this was a fun twist to this drink. I did want the cocktails be a little more alcohol forward since I didn't feel it very much.

    I have read all the two and three star reviews over the years. Most people are not fans of the…read moreoverpriced afternoon tea, so I just never put any thought into going. But as I was walking past the ferris wheel while shopping, I saw the pink neon sign flash on with the words, "Hot Donuts". Like a moth to a flame, I walked in looking for something sweet. For those without reservations, they have a takeout menu with various drinks and desserts. Seasonal special at the time were these freshly made mini maple donuts. The price ($8.50, now $9) is not so mini, but they put a lot in the cup. It was surprisingly delightful, super fluffy and warm. Way sweeter than expected though. But I'd come back, order the regular cinnamon one, and maybe ask if it can be made with less glaze and sprinkles.

    I am thinking that when one imagines a Hello Kitty Cafe one cannot help but imagine an environment…read moredrenched in pink and cute. That is certainly the image I had about the Hello Kitty Cafe when I went in. It is important to note that I had not performed an internet search on this cafe prior to going so my expectations really were pink and cute in an overarching way. I did not know how the pink and cute were actually going to take form or if they would land as welcomed fairy glamour or garish hot pink spewed from an ogre ill with a pink fever. I am happy to report that the pink at the Hello Kitty cafe ultimately landed as ornate sugar, like the one used to make intricate designs on fancy laced cakes. Now we moved to the specifics of how Sanrio imaginers translated pink and Hello Kitty bows to create a momentary pink fantasy that is immersive and sweet. When my friend Ronnie- my partner in pinky raising- and I entered the cafe one was blasted with Hello Kitty merchandise, imagery and photo opportunities. It was clear from the sweaters on the walls and the dainty bow-forward cakes on displays that we were not in Kansas or Oz, anymore. We were in purr and bow territory and that meant we were pawns that now had to move with pink pace. This pink pace does not belong to the Pink Panther or to Barbie, or to Elle Woods of Legally Blonde stardom. This pink pace is unique to Hello Kitty and its distinguishing factor is that moving at this pace, is simply an act of leisure and rest, it has no purpose other than to exist in a suave, comfortable drowl. All the other pink owning people listed before move at a pink pace that is meant to accomplish something. For instance, Pink Panther desires to solve cases as it moves in pink, while Ms. Woods (comma) Elle has court battles to win in her pink pace. I, for one, welcomed being enveloped in pink slowness. There was a a stand in front of the Bow Room that suggested a host stood there at one time. But since there was no host, I mentioned our arrival to the cashier and they explained that the host of the Bow Room would be informed. A person came out of the Bow room, and told us, we had four more minutes to wait. A break in the pink fantasy but every paradise needs gnats that gnaw. As soon as one enters, the pink atmosphere- described above with maybe painful detail- wallops. In fact, when I entered the sole gender neutral bathroom I found pink hand-wash. Thus the details, like sugar, were granular. The chairs had bows, some other customers had hello kitty prints, others dressed in streets clothes, the sugar cubes were pink and in Hello Kitty form, as well as the cucumber sandwiches, as well as the tier holding case, as well as the central design feature of the room, as well as the napkin holders, as well as the chocolate design of the chocolate mouse and strawberry opener. So if I had not made this clear this room was absolutely, 1000%, Hello Kitty themed but somehow it worked, it never crossed into a tsunami of pink that could drown and wash away. I think because its own its absurdity with confidence, like a model who wears an avant garde creation/monstrosity with humility abandon. All of the pictures will help the reader decide for themselves if this place's pink is right-on or wrong-off. Now unto the food. I first tried the Birthday Tea which was raspberry forward. I am not sure why I did not like it, even with a hello kitty sugar cube. The server was kind enough to swap it for their most popular tea--- their pear tea. This one could be drank without sugar, which was good, I did not want to use too many sugar cubes, like one for every cup. To prevent this, I put a sugar cube in the pot. I know the review is dense but I hope people take note of this fact: Put a cube in the pot, instead on every cup, to ensure one does not over-indulge in sugar. Especially when the tea bites were, in my opinion, overly sweet. More broadly speaking, the tea bites were mostly standard, with some being more, and others being less. For example, the chicken salad croissant was good and had a pinch of maybe celery or another bitter-like vegetable that added crunch and zest but did not fully reach its promise, it went forward but not reach its full bite goal. The apple tart was a mini apple pie that I could leave after one nibble, as apple pies are so well known that I did not want to get to know the familiar again. There was a hummus on a pita with something red on top, this was a solid bite. So basically I am saying that the atmosphere and design- from tea spoon to walls, was the real draw of the place, where the food falls short and eats as a minor let down. At least for me, others might love the food, but now I am over stating as we all know that taste is a relative human experience. I would not go back to this place. I did it, know what it was and that was enough. But I am glad I tried once for now I know what a pretty pink tea party feels like.

Most cafes/lounges are in shopping centers and do not have the luxury of such a cool feature. I love how secure the facility is by having multiple doors to keep the cats safe and from getting outside. You can tell that the owners carefully thought out their space and the thing I appreciate the most is that you do not smell the litter boxes. I have been to a couple of cafes that smelled horribly and this is coming from someone that not only has a cat sanctuary in ATX, but I have had cats my entire life and you never smell litter box in my home or in my facility. Whiskers and Wine is a great place to unwind and spend time with beautiful kitties in need of a fur-ever home. I understand that some people do not get the concept of a cat cafe, but in order for them to provide such an incredible service to animals, they still have to pay the bills to house and feed the cats. The biggest take away is that cage free facilities are much better for the cats than when they are kept in cages at the local shelter or other animal rescues. Thank you for a great time and for all that you do to help cats in need!
