From the special board the salami pesto
Sierra F.

My favorite place to grab lunch in San Juan Bautista, nothing else even comes close! An incredibly solid daily menu of classic sandwiches and an exciting, ever changing specials menu. Prices are always reasonable, employees are always so friendly, and food always tastes fresh! I love the outside seating adorned with small vases of fresh flowers in the center. Been coming here for years just for the delicious turkey pesto, but have been branching out to the specials lately, especially the (thankfully) often available turkey avocado! Never a bad experience here!!

Plum, burrata and buckwheat micro greens paired with Brie, bacon and raspberry on sourdough

Loved everything about this gem in San Juan Bautista. The service was great. Very kind and helpful in making selections. Fig and Brie sandwich on Sourdough was delicious, paired with the stone fruit (plum) and burrata with buckwheat greens was perfect. Definitely a find in this historic town.

Really cute spot with fresh sandwiches. Think of sandwiches you would make at home with really great ingredients. One thing to consider is that there is no inside seating and only two small tables outside. We ended up grabbing our brown bags from here and walking over to the mission to eat at their picnic tables. The service was quick- they were a little pricey but worth it for the ingredients in my opinion. Great stop on the way to the coast.

Sandwiches, with a side of Brussel sprouts & Potatoes

This little shop is amazing! The sandwich's are some of the best I have ever had. They are huge for the price and taste like they're made with lots of precision and care. I've been here a handful of times and it never disappoints. It's a must try if you're stopping in San Juan Bautista!

High quality sandwiches! Not a sit down restaurant, though they do have a small table outside. My husband and I tried the Kimchi Reuben and Mission Melt and loved both!! Never had a kimchi Reuben before, and now I want all my Reuben's to have kimchi in them!

a bit pricy, but sandwich tasted great. sandwich is a little tiny but still filling. they sometimes run out of stuff on their menu so beware! nice spot for a quick lunch.

Reuben sandwich and tomato basil soup.

Today I had lunch at Lolla's for the first time. I ordered the Reuben and tomato basil soup. The Reuben was large and good, the soup was delicious. Because the sandwich was so large I ended up eating only half. The next time I'll order the half sandwich with soup. It was nice eating outside Lolla's in San Juan Bautista today!

10/10 - Our New Favorite Spot!…read more Just had an AMAZING experience at JJ's Burgers in San Juan Bautista, and I'm still blown away by how good everything was! First off, the portion sizes are crazy generous -- seriously, you will NOT leave hungry. A huge shoutout to Roxanna, who gave us some of the best customer service we've ever had. She greeted us the moment we walked in and told us to sit anywhere we liked. Menus were brought out immediately, and when I asked for recommendations, she gave super detailed info about the menu favorites -- including her personal picks. Thanks to her suggestions, I ordered the Mushroom Burger with garlic fries, and WOW... hands down the best garlic fries I've ever had. The burger was insanely delicious and packed with flavor. I tried my best to finish it, but the portions were so big I had to tap out (even after sharing fries!). My son ordered onion rings and a cookies & crème milkshake, and he loved both. We shared the onion rings because he couldn't finish them either -- again, HUGE portions. And according to him, the milkshake is the best ever. Service-wise? Easily a 10-star experience. Roxanna checked on us often, made sure we had everything we needed, and I noticed she treated all the customers with the same level of friendliness and attention. She's patient, personable, and really elevates the whole dining experience. We'll definitely be back -- this just became our new go-to spot!

I came here based on the photos and reviews, but unfortunately my experience was very…read moredisappointing. The bacon cheeseburger I received looked nothing like the advertised photos and came with only one piece of bacon. After asking about it, I waited over 5 minutes for more bacon, which ended up being undercooked. I also ordered garlic fries, but they were cold when served. When I brought it up, I was told it was my fault because I let them sit, even though they were already cold when they arrived. To make matters worse, I had to wait another 10+ minutes while the waitress called the owner because I wasn't satisfied with the food. The milkshake was good, but at $10, the prices overall are very high for the quality and service received. For the cost, I expected much better food, customer service, and consistency with what is advertised. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

Recently, I learned of Cultiva and Cali Caffeine, and that there would be a Sunday vegan brunch…read morehappening once a month in San Juan Bautista. My wife is vegan, and I love vegan food, so we decided to take a Sunday drive and check out the brunch offerings! Upon arriving, we quickly came to realize that space is super limited inside. There's really just one spot right inside the door. There were two tables out in front, however it was raining and that wasn't going to work for us. We did eye one other table inside, and they quickly cleared it off and were super willing to accommodate us, especially since we mentioned we had come down from San Jose in the rain, and had been looking forward to the experience. After looking at photos online, it's possible there might be a patio in the back, but again, my guess is it would be weather permitting. Just a heads up to plan accordingly when coming here, as space is limited. Rafael operates the Cali Caffeine part of the business, and right away he made me a very tasty vanilla americano, and my wife had a specialty latte made with oatmilk. Super good and paired wonderfully with our food. Maria operates Cultiva, and is the chef and prepares the food. She was so warm and welcoming, and she made us some of the best vegan dishes we've had outside of our own home. We ordered three items and shared: Waffle - Banana Brulee, Cinnamon, Maple Syrup Chilaquiles - House Red Sauce, Corn Chips, Crema, Onion, Queso Fresco Milanesas with Famous Mom's Macaroni Salad - rice & mushroom medley "steak" milanesas paired with creamy, flavorful macaroni salad In addition to the above, we also got to try a side of spicy garlic potatoes, with chipotle sauce, spring onions, and arugula. The food was incredible and the flavors were delectable! Everything was made with thought and care, and it truly came through in every bite. We are so glad we took the drive out and met these wonderful people, ate some delicious food, and had an amazing experience. Can't wait to come back again. Thank you so much Maria and Rafael!

Very friendly service. The food was delicious, especially considering that it was all vegan, and…read moretrying fake meats can be risky. I will definitely go again when in the area.
