    Mama's Caffe is such a gem! The space is incredible--there's a beautiful seating room in the front, cozy café seating in the middle, and a huge room in the back. I've been twice so far and absolutely love it. The first time was for a Foodbank event I hosted, and we used the back seating area. Working with Francesca was a total delight--she's so friendly and helpful. She worked within our budget and helped make the event a huge success. We did a volunteer appreciation breakfast, and everyone raved about the food! They served quiche, breakfast potatoes, and pastries--everything was amazing. The quiche was fresh and delicious, the pastries were the perfect bite-sized treats, and the potatoes were unlike any I've had before. I'm not usually a breakfast potato girly, but these were the best I've ever had! We also offered coffee and tea for our guests, which was a nice touch. More recently, my husband and I stopped in for brunch because I couldn't stop talking about how good it is. I had the quiche and potatoes again (yes, they're that good!), along with an almond milk cappuccino and a mimosa. My husband had the meatball sandwich and loved it--it was massive! All of the staff are so friendly, and honestly, the best part might be chatting with Mama herself. She's the sweetest. We'll definitely be back soon to try more!

    Delicious food, generous portions, and the staff worked with me to make substitutions on my meal to accommodate my allergies. Ambiance is cute and homey.

    Our family visited Mama's Cafe while we were in Lompoc for a family trip. We walked in for some breakfast and we loved their food and services sooooo much we went back for dinner...and then breakfast again the next morning! Dinner was excellent and we had a great chat with the owner and her daughter as well. Such a lovely family owned, cozy restaurant.

    Came across this little gem, during our stay here. The second you walk in you're welcomed with big smiles from Mama and Josh. I would recommend coming here for a cozy breakfast if you're in town. The food is reasonably priced for the portions given. The flavor is on point, and will have you coming back for more.

    Family owned small town restaurant that is absolutely perfect. The ingredients and quality food make you feel good when you leave here. The service staff take good care of their guests and mama is typically walking around helping the staff and greeting guests. Beautifully done decor and makes you feel at home. We love it here. Thank you!

    "Mama" she's always willing to share a story or... 10!!!

    If you live in Lompoc or are just visiting, it's essential to include Mamas Caffe on your list of must-try breakfast spots. There are numerous options for starting your day off right in our charming town and its neighboring area, but this newcomer is already making waves with its delectable menu items.! Go check them out, I know we will over and over again! @labotterestaurant

Since we used to own and run a small business ourselves, we know exactly what that feels like. Despite being shorthanded, the owners were extremely professional and provided excellent service--you would have never known they were understaffed. We ordered the French Toast and the Crunchy French Toast, and both were perfect. The dishes featured delicious, buttery brioche served with cinnamon butter and syrup. We also loved their coffee cups so much that we bought one to take home! If you ever find yourself in Solvang, make it a point to go here for an amazing breakfast.

We had the protein bowl, the pancake combo with Danish pancakes, the Monte Cristo, and the flaky toast. Keep in mind, this was for only two and a half people, and we still had plenty left to take home because the portions are generous. The Monte Cristo was probably the best I've ever had. The flaky toast was incredible and had me wishing I had room for another order. The Danish pancakes were also excellent and definitely worth trying. Another big plus was how family-friendly the restaurant was. We visited on a weekday morning during the summer and only had a short wait, though I can't speak to weekend wait times. The only downside is the service after you're seated. You order at the front counter before being shown to your table, and once your food is delivered, it's not very likely that anyone will check on you. If you need a refill or anything else, you'll probably have to flag someone down. Even with that minor drawback, the food more than made up for it. Fantastic food, generous portions, a welcoming atmosphere, and a great spot for families. I'd happily come back the next time I'm in Solvang.

    Always an exceptional breakfast at Paula's. We are a large group (9) so we always have a long wait,…read moreespecially since we only go on Sunday mornings. The staff is very accommodating and gets us in as quickly as possible. It should be noted that at particularly busy times they will stop taking names for parties for an hour to an hour and a half until they get caught up. The staff members are engaging and efficient. It's difficult to recommend a specific dish because everything is good. On this particular occasion, the eggs in my eggs Benedict were over poached, but honestly out of a half dozen breakfasts, this is the only hiccup I've ever experienced. The buttermilk pancakes are very good, but if you've never tried them before, I recommend giving the Danish pancakes, a try; they're very flavorful. You can add fruit to them, typically cinnamon apples are enjoyed by my family, but you can also have them just with butter and syrup.

    Came here on a Saturday around 7:45 a.m. and there were barely any people there. By about 8:15…read morea.m., the place started filling up quickly, so I'd definitely recommend arriving earlier if you want to avoid the crowd and wait. Unfortunately, my experience started off on the wrong foot. When my coffee arrived, I noticed what looked like lipstick on the rim of the cup. At first I thought it might just be a stain, but when I touched it, it smeared. Pretty gross, especially for a $4.50 cup of coffee that was very mediocre. The portion sizes were generous, but the food wasn't anything memorable. I ordered the Solvang Danish-style sausage with eggs, hash browns, and an English muffin. I did appreciate that the English muffin was buttered, but the sausage was underwhelming and didn't have anything special about it. My husband ordered Paula's Special with Danish pancakes and warm cinnamon apples. He usually loves pancakes, but he also thought they were just okay. I actually liked the thin Danish pancakes, but I'm not much of a sweets-for-breakfast person. The service also left something to be desired. I found it odd that I had to ask for a water refill instead of it being offered. When I asked for water, the server smiled and nodded but never brought any. I asked again, thinking maybe she hadn't heard me. She returned with a cup full of ice, so I had to ask a third time before I finally got water. Overall, while the restaurant is popular and serves large portions, I don't really understand the hype. Between the mediocre food, the lipstick on the coffee cup, and the inattentive service, it wasn't an experience I'd be eager to repeat.

The baked goods are really good (get the sticky bun and morning roll) and the lunch menu is varied, something for everyone. Bob's reminds me of my travels in France - at least the way you eat in France.

    I've been here for two long weekends- went to Bob's every morning on both trips…read more The stand outs: 1) The Lavender Fog w/ oat milk had by multiple people on both trips-- all enjoyed it. Delicious. 2) The loaf of bread w/ bacon (lardon maybe?)-- had it with a sandwich or something and brought a loaf home the first trip. My household and I wish I had bought 5 loaves. Excellent. Sad they did not have it this visit. 3) Egg in jar and egg in frame- excellent reviews from whoever in our group ordered them. (I didnt have them but hope to next visit.) Outdoor seating/large patio is great. The not so great is totally outshined by the good, but will mention in case you're on the fence about what to get. -The sweets/baked goods in the display are maybe average, since I don't recall what I had from the first trip- but remembered not being crazy about it, so I thought I'd play it safe with 2 big cookies. Chocolate chunk cookie was good- a solid choice if you love a lot of chocolate. Pistachio shortbread cookie: I'd remove it from the menu. It tastes neither like pistachio nor shortbread (which is disappointing since I love both). It also had rosemary or something herb-y that I wasn't expecting- and wouldn't be opposed to anyway- but the cookie was a total miss. Service: super upbeat and fantastic in Feb. Tepid but fine this week. I want to give it 5 stars despite the items I didn't love. Because 5 months later- all I could think about was Lavender Fog and bacon bread loaf. But I know I wasn't crazy about 40-50% of what I tried so far. And that pistachio cookie was a pretty solid fail. I'll def be back and hope both my faves plus egg in jar are still there!
