I was really interested in the Ube waffle, and I ordered to go but it did not disappoint. Though it was 20 dollars, you do get a lot of fruits, whipped cream, and additions to the plate. It was big enough to share for my son and I. Service was great! They seemed genuine and friendly. Lots of smiles all around. Ambiance was pink and lovely. I like how they have events at the cafe. Seems like a nice place for groups

To begin, this place is located at the Oceanside Harbor, which is a cute spot to walk around with…read morethe family, look at the boats, and enjoy the ocean. That's exactly what my family and I did before heading into the restaurant! The process was easy and convenient. When you walk in, you can grab your own menu, find an open table, and once you decide what you'd like, you place your order and receive a number. The fountain drinks, coffee, and tea are self-serve, which makes everything simple and convenient. Our visit was great! I ordered the chilaquiles, and they were delicious--flavorful but not spicy. My kids ordered chicken and fries, while my daughter got a hamburger, which she really enjoyed. Another thing I liked is that since you pay when you order, once you're finished eating, you can simply leave without having to wait for the check. I also want to give a special thank you to Tiffany, the manager. I accidentally forgot my wallet, and thankfully someone turned it in. Tiffany was extremely helpful and made sure I was able to get it back. I truly appreciate her and the staff at Stratford! Overall, I'm very pleased with the location, the food, and especially the customer service. My family and I will definitely be going back!!

HARBOR VIEWS & BRUNCH! Two things that mix very well, and deserve the social media attention. I had…read moreStratford pop-up on Instagram and I was so shocked that I hadn't tried this spot. Oceanside is a part of my childhood, how could I miss it? Especially since the bites are awe-inspiring. Lemon pancakes are the moment, they're slightly zesty and mildly sweet. Perfect for sunny days and oh-so-photogenic. If you're a scrambles and omelette boy like me, you have another reason to love this place. I highly recommend the coffee and small treats too. Drinks are refillable and seating is readily available. Both indoor and outdoor spaces are accessible. Ordering is done at the counter, you'll be given a number to post at your table once you complete your transaction. Overall, the service is excellent. We only had one weird experience with a tall girly who had major attitude problems. I recently brought my parents for their anniversary and we had a pleasant time.

I believe they not only captured their vision, but elevated it to success with a charming menu built on old fashioned favorites tastefully created by Andrea's delicate notes of fresh ingredients. David, along the help of his best friend skillfully erected a cabin like patio to enjoy your meals and gaze upon the open meadows & gentle roiling hills ..in this sweet romantic off-the-beaten-path gem.

Communal Coffee is one of my favorite breakfast spots in Oceanside, and one of the biggest reasons…read moreis how easy they make takeout. When I'm craving a delicious breakfast made with high-quality, organic, whole-food ingredients, I can order online, swing by, and pick it up without dealing with the rush. It's the perfect option for busy mornings. That said, dining in is worth it too. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and just a great place to slow down and enjoy your meal. They also have a charming little gift shop with flowers and thoughtfully curated items that make the space feel even more special. With both indoor and outdoor seating, plus a dog-friendly patio, it's an easy place to meet friends or enjoy a quiet morning. Parking can be a little hit or miss, but in my experience, it usually hits. Whether you're grabbing breakfast to go or staying to soak up the vibes, Communal Coffee is always a solid choice. Fresh ingredients, beautiful space, and consistently great food make it an easy five stars.

I love Communal, especially the one in Oceanside, but no matter which location I order from, the…read morecoffee is always exceptional. It's a great spot to meet up with friends or bring my mom when she arrives at the Oside train station from Grover Beach. It's a wonderful place to grab a flavored latte, seasonal drink, a glass of wine and a lunch bite, or all of the above! I also look forward to wandering through their gift area every time, where they stock unique jewelry, candles, fragrance rollerballs and 'clean' nail polish, plants and pots, kids' merchandise, t-shirts, and other cute stuff. I always buy something extra (and special) when I come. Their coffee bar is open, as is the general space, and there is plenty of seating outside in front and in back. You can watch the baristas make your drink and peep the beautiful Italian espresso machine and lovely bouquet of dried flowers by the bar while doing so. They bring their food out to you and when your espresso drink is ready they set it on the bar for you to pick up. Definitely a place to hang vs. grabbing a quick drink and rushing off about your day. I always want to stay and catch up with friends or bring my laptop to do some work, and they never make me feel rushed. Truly one of my favorite coffee shops in North County and in SD in general. (There is another high quality coffee shop in Oceanside that has incredible coffee and pastries--I won't mention the name--but I sometimes sense an attitude from the staff there, and that is a bit of a turnoff.) Go to Communal...you will not regret it!

They are two of the sweetest, kindest people you'll ever meet. They always greet everyone with a smile, make every customer feel welcome, and even tell my wife how beautiful she looks every time we come in. Their genuine kindness brightens our day. And the food? The Bucc Muffin with sausage is, without question, the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. It's absolutely amazing! Honestly, everything on the menu is delicious, and you can tell it's made with care. If you're looking for great food served with even greater hospitality, Buccaneer Café is the place. Lilie and Hanna are a big part of what makes this café so special. Highly, highly recommended!

You can sit outside and have the ocean view with a breeze right across the street. The parking is easy in the lot behind it. Otherwise, on the narrow streets parking can be challenging. My favorite burrito so far has been the vegan one with rice! The lattes here are pretty good too. Usually, restaurants have good food, but mediocre coffee. This place has both good food and coffee. I especially like their Cubano espresso! Service is friendly and fast! My dog loves it here too! If you're looking for a simple coffee and burrito- this is the place! Love it!
