    We had some cookies and croissants here. They were very good and they have an in-house bakery, which is pretty yummy. They are an orange Avenue in Coronado

    Parakeet is good for health conscious eaters who don't mind paying a premium to avoid seed oils, and other inflammatory "junk" ingredients in their amazing selection of lattes and brunch items. So I really value that aspect, however, this location while cute is a warehouse style building and was extremely loud and echo-y! I will say the poke bowl fell flat in the flavor department. I would stick to their brunch items as this was my first time having lunch and it was just ok. The turmeric latte was delish. Service: Order at the counter then they bring it to the table. I will not be going again unless it's for grab and go coffee smoothie/juice.

    The theming, vibe, and overall aesthetic of the location are so cute--but the food was unbelievable. Highly recommend the poke bowl, chicken teriyaki bowl, and the Brazilian smoothie!

    Food here is fresh baked. Cookies and croissants. Service is go to counter and order. Ambience is outdoors and indoor vibe

    Roasted Potatoes
    Wendy S.

    Absolutely loved this place! Christmas morning, we decided to stroll around Coronado, and came up upon this little café. The food was absolutely amazing, loved the crunch of the croissant sandwich, and the roasted potatoes were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The food was visually appetizing as well as the interior had such a cute vibe. The staff was super friendly and even though it was crowded they were really working to make sure everybody wasn't standing in line or waiting off in areas for too long.. a must try!! The only reason I gave it a four versus a five was to add on some of the sides just seemed way overpriced for me. Wouldn't stop me from coming back.

    Nice cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Order at the counter and then the food is brought to you. The food is super healthy and some good options for vegan and vegetarian. Nice ambiance and customer sevice

    Salted Maple Latte
    Sylvester R.

    I love the service and food. The Brekki is my favorite along with their salted maple latte. I've only been treated with great respect and kindness when I come here or to any of their locations though the Coronado location is my favorite. Great music and clean bathrooms ...always!

    I go to parakeet all the time in Newport so decided to try it out in Coronado. I'm glad to report that the quality is consistent. Parakeet was quite busy and loud at 10:30 AM on a Sunday. We decided to get a spot in the outdoor back patio to get away from the hustle and bustle. My iced vanilla matcha was perfection and came out quickly. We werent waiting long for our food either. All the staff were friendly and accommodating- you can tell they work hard! I shared the breakfast burrito and avocado toast. The toast had a nice and thick piece of sourdough which was tasty topped with refreshing vegetables. The burrito was the perfect size and great when you order pickled onions on the side (gives it a nice sour and crunch!)

    Turmeric Latte w espresso

    I came here for the fist time and the food and drinks where soooo good! I really enjoyed the turmeric latte that I believe Ari made and Ivanna suggested!! I added a shot of espresso for some energy as well as mushrooms mix! Thank you guys!! Azalea was my server and brought my delicious Benedict's on toast to my table as well as my coffee! I would say the music could be a little lower for this time in the morning but other than that great yummy healthy food!!!

    Dry bran muffin!!
    LInda C.

    This was the worst bran muffin I have ever had. So dense and dry, could not cut with knife and fork. Cup of coffee Luke warm. Bad overall!

    Squash Soup (gf, v)
    Chloe K.

    Came here with my friends to get a healthier bite. The menu has lots of different options. My friend got the charcoal waffle and liked it, but said it basically tasted like a normal waffle but less sweet. The soup was flavorful and filling! I got a matcha which was ok. Food came quickly. Nice spot on orange.

    Apple juice
    Kris P.

    The ambience of this place is super fun & cute. There are seats inside and outside. Juicery is on one side & coffee shop/cafe on the other. You order at the front & have a seat, then someone will bring you your items. The drip coffee was great. They have lattes as well but we didn't try any. My daughter ordered the lemonade and the other one ordered an apple juice. They were good & the girls said they tasted "fresh". Food- we ordered the egg & cheese sandwich, the harvest toast with egg, & breakfast burrito. Everything was AMAZING! Plus, it was a quick and easy breakfast. It wasn't too heavy and was perfect to start our busy day.

    Parakeet Bowl (gf, v)
    Lorraine M.

    Loved dropping by here for a Sunday breakfast. The service was relatively quick and helpful even when the waffle machine stopped working and we had to re order a new meal. Mariana was great, friendly and patient with us as we enjoyed our meal. I loved my parakeet bowl and iced green tea. The perfect meal!

    Sad gluten-free grilled cheese. Nine dollars for something that's not even melted, extremely dry, and taste like cardboard.

    I come here for their delicious acai bowl. On my last visit, I also tried their lavender latte which I recommend as well.

It was cooked to absolute perfection. Finally a restaurant that knows what medium rare is!! My boyfriend got the skirt steak with double egg fried rice. He loved it Also!!! I ordered black iced tea, it was THE BEST iced tea I've ever been served at a restaurant. You can tell it was brewed in house and they use high quality tea We wished the dessert menu had a creme brûlée! Our server was so kind and professional Overall an amazing date night, the Henry is decorated so cute inside and I loved the candlelight touches. We'd come here again!

But nonetheless the dark interior and laid back environment was pleasant. Even with the laid back environment, the service was attentive and helpful. You can check out my 2 menu pics for the thematic food and drinks that are available. We started with the Volcano Fries. This dish starts with your basic fries, and goes up from there. As you can see from my pic, there are plenty of seasonings on the fries. But it's ALL about their sauces: Sriracha Aioli and Hot Honey. (BTW, the heat wasn't overly hot and didn't distract from the flavors.). Between the garlic, the sweet/heat action, the creaminess of the Aioli, these fries were very hard to stop munching on. While not a super-phenomenal appetizer, it was incredibly irresistible. We then finished with the Pineapple Fried Rice with Spam & Portuguese Sausage, see my pic. We liked the combination of the fried rice with the rich meats (yes, I classified Spam as a meat. This reminded me of some of the Hawaiian Spam dishes.) The seasoning was rather weak. But it still was a hearty and robust meal.

There was so many meat pieces that it's well worth your money!
