We went for Mother's Day brunch and we expected it to be crazy but it was pretty efficient. Our server was very kind and calm. She was able to verify vegan options and I realized I could order many more things than were actually labeled. I got these cute crispy burritos vegan and they were absolutely delicious. The chocolate matcha latte was also amazing. It was a beautiful day and a great place so close to the beach. Thank you for so many wonderful vegan options!!! read more

Naked Cafe - CRISPY BURRITOS but vegan - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Solana Beach, California

Healthy, natural options made fresh to fuel you up for the day in the sun while keeping your calories manageable. Located just blocks away from the water and situated with an amazing view, Naked Cafe has nothing to hide but this hidden gem is off the well traveled highway 101 serving patrons inside and outside of their cozy bungalow-styled establishment. As you arrive (for many by foot), consider seating yourself at one of the many umbrella-shaded tables or venture inside to grab a seat. I saw a few folks with dogs so if you plan to come with your furry friend, the place seems to be well suited for them. For those looking to order takeout, simply walk up to the register and the staff will get you started. Their menu includes a variety of options like wraps, burritos, salads, bowls, tacos, pancakes, and other brunch-like items. Their drink menu is also extensive including alcohol like wines, mimosa and beer as well as coffees, teas and smoothies. You're bound to find something fitting that craving of yours or satisfying the nutrients needed for energizing your metabolism. I ended up ordering the pesto chicken wrap that also came with a side of chips. The wrap was loaded with succulent pieces of chicken and was very flavorful. The whole grain tortilla held up well throughout the meal and had good texture with each bite. The chips that came along were decent - had good crunch but lacked any kind of flavor. Fortunately the salsa came in clutch to kick things up a notch. The portions were also better than I had expected. The staff were friendly, efficient in placing our order and packaging it up, and thorough in fulfilling the order by including utensils and napkins as they handed the order to us. For takeout orders, they had given us an approximate wait time of 15 minutes and it was quite accurate. There wasn't much space to wait near the register so we ended up waiting near the front entrance near the sidewalk but after the 15 minutes, we made our way back to see that our order was in the process of getting packed up. Overall, Naked Cafe is a great spot to grab a light meal or lunch while soaking in so rays. With its open seating area covered only by the umbrellas at each table, you'll bask in the open air while consuming delicious plates made to order with fresh ingredients and healthy and sustainable options. For those with strict diets, you might want to seek this place out and see for yourself. The menu is anything but bare at Naked Cafe! read more

Naked Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Solana Beach, California

NAKED CAFE @ SOLANA BEACH Parking was super convenient, there's plenty of street parking, or you can park in their four-hour free customer lot, which is also available for beachgoers. I came on a Sunday and had no trouble finding a spot. Naked Café is literally right by the beach, about a two minute walk, which makes the location absolutely beautiful. I've been to their Carlsbad location before, so I was really excited to finally check this one out. At first glance, this location is definitely much smaller than the Carlsbad one. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, but since it was a bit chilly being right on the coast, I preferred sitting indoors. It was pretty busy for a Sunday afternoon, so we waited about 30 minutes, which honestly wasn't too bad. One thing I did notice, though, is that the trash and recycling bins are right next to the line and outdoor seating, which made sitting outside a little less pleasant. Once we were seated, the staff were super friendly and welcoming. I ordered their iconic pesto avocado toast, which is hands down my favorite. It comes with a side of rosemary potatoes, and they are to die fornot greasy or deep-fried, but a much healthier and flavorful alternative. I also love their chocolate strawberry pancakes. My boyfriend and I split them, two pancakes for about $10, which felt like a great deal. He ordered the Green Heart quesadilla, which was also really good. We added avocado for an additional $3, and he paired it with a kombucha. The food came out in about 10 minutes, which was impressive given how busy it was. The interior is super beachy, cozy, and cute, and overall the food is consistently delicious. Entrées range around $15-$18, which is very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. I'd highly recommend stopping by especially if you can sit indoors. I'll definitely be coming back again. read more

I've been coming here for over 20 years and I love it. Can't beat the location, the food is tasty and always consistent, the employees are always kind and accommodating. Good vibes all around. My only complaint would be that the bathroom does not have a changing table for babies. But they just redid the inside and expanded their espresso bar so maybe a bathroom upgrade is next! My favorite items are the rising sun quesadilla, crispy breakfast burritos, coconut French toast and sesame ginger tacos. read more

Very close to the beach Cute, small cafe offering whole food options. Outside seating is dog friendly. Many GF, vegetarian, and vegan options Parking is street parking I got the brown butter latte that is on special for the holidays and the bacon avocado toast The coffee was very good and they were able to personalize it to decaf and whole milk The avocado toast was very generous portion came with one sunny side up egg, what appeared to be an entire avocado, and two slices of thick cut bacon. The pesto was very tasty. Comes with potatoes on the side that we're not to my liking. No texture and they had tomatoes in them, which I'm not a fan of. I did have the tomatoes removed off of the avocado toast. Staff were friendly and interactive, but not overbearing . read more

I discovered Naked Cafe today while I was out at Fletcher Cove Beach with my little one. I was craving a coffee and it was conveniently right there. There was nice outdoor seating which was amazing because the weather was beautiful and there's views of the beach from there too. I ordered my coffee (honey cinnamon latte) and decided to try the steak tenderloin hash. Both were so delicious! We came about half an hour before they close for the day but the server was kind and let us order and chill for a bit. It was a nice little spot in a good area with good food so I would return when I'm in the area again! read more

Naked Cafe - Views - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Solana Beach, California

The pros are a fantastic location next to Fletcher Cove, great service, and edible food. The cons are the bathroom, menus etc... were dirty, and the food was not good, just edible. I had the Welcome plate without toast. It said it came with tomatoes and green onion. I think I had two cherry tomatoes in my potatoes and a 3" piece of green onion on the side. The potatoes were partially burned and chewy, and way oversalted. The scrambled eggs were fine. If I come back it will be for a drink and a view. read more

Naked Cafe - The Welcome plate without toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Solana Beach, California

$17 for 2 mini burritos. You're paying for the views and 2oz of egg on a tortilla. Do not try the brown coconut rice, trust.

Very cute cafe right across the street from Fletcher Cove (beach and playground). Large outdoor patio as well as a cozy indoor dining area. Good for groups or small parties and very kid friendly--excellent kid's menu! The food was tasty but I've been there a few times and it was a little inconsistent. Love that they have a wide variety of options and a lot of healthy ones (that still look and sound delicious) too. My main complaint is the bees. As I mentioned I've been there multiple times and there are a lot of bees or wasps) not sure which) on the patio. We moved indoors twice and one time they were even inside. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to harm or remove the bees, but it did detract from our dining experience. Regardless I will still come back because it's a great neighborhood spot! read more

Breakfast is by far my most favorite meal of the day. I always wake up hungry as some people wake up craving their first cup of coffee. Just feed me please! I had this café bookmarked for the Encinitas location, but my good friend told me this location was more scenic. She was so right! We came on a weekday and it was busy but we wanted to sit outside and enjoy the view and we were lucky enough to get a table right away. There is also indoor dining available as well but when you are on the coast, you usually want to sit outside. The café is dog friendly so we had my friends dog with us. The view is so nice across the street from Fletcher Cove Park and then Boom! there is the ocean. We started out with the Daydreamer Mimosa - champagne, fresh squeezed lemonade and lavender and the Pink Lotus Mimosa - champagne, fresh squeezed lemonade and raspberry. Both drinks were very refreshing and brought a nice buzz to the morning. So many great choices on the menu to choose from but I decided on the Solstice Burritos. This was such a good choice. The burritos were filled with scrambled eggs, jack cheese, green onion, tomato, flour tortilla, I added avocado, side of beans and rosemary potatoes. I really loved my meal and drink. Everything tasted so fresh and I would love to dine here again to try more of their dishes. For our vegan friends, they also serve you with many scrumptious dishes. Our server Michael was so kind and he made sure we were well taken care of even bringing some water over for my friends' dog. Thank you Michael for your fantastic service. Parking is complimentary on the street where you can find it. It is mixed residential/commercial in this area. I am so glad we came here to start our weekend off right by dining on the shores of the west coast. read more

My friend suggested this place for lunch and we loved it! It's right across the street from the ocean and a block from Cedros Avenue in Solana Beach. There was a nice breeze and perfect weather when we were there. It has a large outdoor patio seating area in front. There were small patio umbrellas scattered around but it was still too sunny so we opted to sit in the covered seating area above. We had a great view of the ocean. The food was delicious and so healthy. I ordered the Pesto Scramble this time. There were a lot of other dishes that I wanted to try so we will be back. read more

Love this local brunch spot! It's right across from Fletcher's Cove beach. It has plenty of free parking spots, even on an Easter holiday weekend. The food was quick and oh so tasty! Michael, our server, was attentive but not too overbearing. He was very good about customizing my dish when I asked about replacing the pesto spread (due to a nut allergy). If you're looking for a casual beachy brunch spot, then get Naked right here! You won't regret it! read more

We brought our three puppies to this dog friendly restaurant for brunch. If you don't mind sitting at this quaint spot, it's just a block away from the ocean. We ordered the endless summer tacos and the green & red pagoda along with a pomegranate and grapefruit juice and a cappuccino. The food was phenomenal and came to the table quick. The best tasting brown rice I've ever had. Tacos were amazing! Service didn't skip a beat! 5 stars! This is our new favorite for brunch! read more

I've always walked past here and noticed how crazy busy it was. I thought that it was only a place for groups & if I were to come solo I'd be taking up a potential table. But I went yesterday with a friend and noticed that there were solo, doubles, tables of 4, and beyond. They have outdoor and indoor! I think next time I would sit indoor since the food was a little cold by the time it reached us outside. Also the table was slanted so you could only put water glass on one side. The prices are SUPER fair!! Esp with a "beach" view? It's seriously amazing. I would highly recommend ordering a smoothie and something from their pancake menu! Skip the Rosemary Potatoes ($4) because they aren't like your usual breakfast potatoes. They are very mushy and clustered. It looked like a log of semi mashed potatoes. The rosemary came through, but the texture was sooo off! I ordered the Banana Blackberry Pancake (just one, $5.50) because in the photos it was massive and I know I'd waste the other two pancakes. It was so delicious. I loved the taste of the warmed banana slices. The blackberry was tart and seedy which is actually a great paring with the banana. The plate was beautifully decorated and I was given a half slice of strawberry as well. There is a tray of condiments on the table: ketchup, salt & pepper, maple syrup, and hot sauce! My friend had the $7 Blackberry Banana Smoothie-- eyes lit up with delight while sipping it. It was delicious, cold, and creamy. Also ordered the $16.50 Steak Tenderloin Hash, it came out kind of cold sadly. The steak...had seen better days for sure. It had eggs, rosemary potatoes, and toast as well. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't the best either. I think it would be best to order something else from the menu (big menu!). Although I would love to see a banana chocolate chip pancake available. That would be so classic. Anyways, the price for all was ~$33-35! For having brunch for two on the beachside this price is super good! I will definitely be coming back. read more

Great food and excellent service, love getting my breakfast here. Solstice burritos the best!

Met a friend here today for lunch, our first time at Naked Cafe. I didn't think we'd find parking on a Saturday at the beach, but it was fine, we both found street parking easily. Amazing chai lattes, and the food was excellent. Lots of choices, and felt healthy. The view was amazing, as it's right across from Fletcher's Cove beach. Also, Jayden was our server and he was awesome.  If you go, ask to sit in his section and he will take great care of you! We will be back for sure. read more

They've got good service and the place is cute if you get fair parking. I really like their chaggachino. Food options are nice because they're healthy; however, I feel like they use way too much salt- which is why I knocked them down a Star. read more

They were so nice here even though I didn't get to eat here! Family member decided: I want to have my birthday meal at Naked Cafe. I called ahead to see how busy they were since they don't take reservations. They told me, max, 20 min. wait. I set out ahead of the family to get the table. Well, colossal traffic today on the 5 - it took me 3x the normal amount to get there, and my family decided after 45 mins to make a uturn because they weren't moving. There was in fact no wait and they would have held a table for me -and they felt bad that my family never came! I ordered a Moroccan mint to go and they threw in a giant warm chunk of pumpkin chocolate bread for free to take with me. I'm bummed that my family wasn't able to get there, but we'll go again. It's yummy here & no wonder my fam member was craving it! read more

I love going here! We typically visit this place after a run. Early enough to beat the crowd usually! The Great - The rosemary potatoes are SO GOOD & the mocha is the best The Good - The speed of service is respectable. As is the friendliness of the crew. The Bad - NA The Ugly - NA I have tried a few dishes and drinks here at Naked Cafe. I haven't found one I don't like. My only regret is I have my favorites so don't explore often.

We had a party of 11 on a weekend when we walked in. We were able to get seated fairly quickly in 20 mins. The service was great and food was great too. I was happy they had vegan eggs and cheese to replace basically any item. Everyone in the party enjoyed their food. We were all just disappointed with our drinks my blue latte definitely did not look blue lol & the server didn't know why that was but it was meh. Didn't care to get another one. read more

The good: we were seated promptly and the menu is great for vegan gluten free diets.

A great healthy cafe with hearty food. Popped in for breakfast a couple weekends ago and it was just what our Sunday morning was looking for.

Naked Cafe - Chai Latte - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Solana Beach, California

We always love our visits to Naked Cafe. What a cool vibe and beautiful location. Just a short walk to Solana Beach; Fletcher Cove Park is the view from your table. Lots of patio and indoor, with large windows facing the ocean, seating. We were seated promptly, enjoyed our server's recommendations and attentiveness, and loved all the options on their menu. Excellent choices for vegetarians and vegans, with so many plant-based, farm fresh ingredients. Animal-based proteins can be added to any entree. Our party of three enjoyed very different dishes: avocado BLT, a bowl and rancho heuvos. All delicious and very fresh. Baked Cafe is a Solana Beach staple for a reason: it's hard to beat. Prices were very reasonable given the quality of food, service and ambience. read more

Absolutely love this spot, very fresh, clean healthy breakfast that feel like a tiny dive into indulgence - without feeling too guilty! Ordered the breakfast sandwich, which reminded me of a BLT. It was served on fresh rosemary bread that felt and tasted like the best sourdough you ever had! Came with egg, bacon, tomato and avocado with a little bit of cheese and a fabulous smoked pepper sauce. Definitely one of my new favorites for sure! My man ordered the steak with rosemary potatoes and eggs. There is no way you can go wrong here!! The service is wonderful, it has a great view of the ocean, and delicious coffee.

Naked Café is one of my favorite go-to spots in the San Diego area. With several locations throughout San Diego - Carlsbad, Solana Beach & Encinitas - You are sure to find a location that works for you. This review is strictly for the Solana Beach location. Located across from the beach, it's the perfect spot to take a nice relaxing walk by the water after you finish your meal. Plenty of complimentary street parking available, as well as a huge lot next to the restaurant. When you arrive, you'll make your way past the outdoor seating in order to be greeted by the hostess who will seat you - Plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating available. You will always be greeted with a friendly face and someone that is willing to make your visit a special one. When feeling indecisive, ask your server for recommendations as they are always spot on and they will not steer you wrong. The team here always makes the experience enjoyable - Fantastic service! The menu has a little bit of everything so everyone will find something that hits that craving - Cocktails, Caffeine, Fresh Juices, Smoothies, Breakfast, Brunch & Lunch options - A vast menu! I'm typically headed Naked Café when I'm on a health kick and want fresh ingredients that will satisfy me. Need some caffeine... the Naked Spiced Chai Latte is the way to go - Made with Organic Oat Milk and has the perfect combo of Chai spices. More of a tea person?! You have to try the Moroccan Mint Tea with a bit of Honey... Delicious! Food wise, I have way too many recommendations but you have to try the Buff Burrito {Grilled Chicken, Egg Whites, Cheese, Green Onions and Tomato all wrapped up in a Wheat Tortilla with a side of Beans and Rosemary Potatoes... YUM! And add for extra Salsa cause it's so yummy, you'll drink that baby up like soup! Bacon Avocado Toast {minus the Bacon for me} ... Yes, please.. Who doesn't want amazing Avocado Toast w/ Crispy Potatoes on the Side?! Next time, it's going to depend on if I'm there for breakfast or lunch.. Do I get the Good Karma Bowl or the Thai Chicken Wrap?? Run, don't walk to try this spot... You will not be sorry! read more

What a gem of a brunch spot in Solana beach. Beautiful location across from the park and dog friendly which is always a plus. We went on a double date here and we all loved our food. I got the green pesto quesadilla that came with potatoes and a latte. I have never had a dish like this and would absolutely order again. The portions are generous and very filling. Great family spot. The servers were so kind and friendly and provided great recommendations and customizations. We absolutely want to come back to try more of the menu. read more

Had a great brunch catching up with friends here. There's a smallish indoor area, and a larger patio, right near both the beach and the center of Solana. Parking is plentiful on the street. We all got various tea lattes and/or mimosas of various flavors. All delicious. The Sunshine Latte was a bit more watery than I'd anticipated, but a great flavor. The coconut French toast was a standout, and the carrot zucchini bread too. The portions aren't huge and they're focused on healthier ingredients, and still we all left more than satisfied. Our waiter was attentive and helpful, and we were able to easily split the bill by item because they use one of the portable card reader machines. Certainly recommend for smaller groups. On a sunny, warm summer day I expect there's a wait. read more

Great place for breakfast and/or lunch. They have several in the San Diego area and like all the other ones, this one has a nice outdoor seating area. We were greeted nicely by the hostess and ordered from the extensive menu. I got the Kung Fu Quesadilla and it was glorious !!! A bit of spice, lots of filling inside and a nice toasted wrap. It came with coconut rice and a salad...light but filling. Our friends got the Welcome breakfast plate and the Thai Chicken Wrap, the latter had a nice peanut sauce in the wrap that infused the entire dish. The one reason for the 4 stars was the restroom....you need to go thru a section of the restaurant that also takes you to the kitchen and the area is not as tidy as it could be. The restroom itself could be a lot better kept and clean. Otherwise, the food was very good and the ambiance was relaxing and great... Free parking around the streets and/or nearby strip malls. read more
