I still enjoy coming here with my pup but their menu has changed somewhat. To my disappointment, they no longer have the Power Bowl and have added a few new items. I tried one of them - the protein waffle. I was hopeful that it would be good based on some other people's previous reviews, but I did not care for it much. It definitely is not a real replacement for a standard waffle, but supposedly it has around 44g of protein so it scratches the itch in a healthier way if you're hankering for a more macro friendly waffle. The Power Rancheros aren't much better, unfortunately. I would stick to the other menu items here that they do much better. read more

This review isn't for the food. We frequent here pretty often, food is good, service is good. Chill place to get brunch on weekend.. The issue I have is as a pet owner, there are signs all over saying if you have a furry friend feel free to dine on the patio. Respectfully. However we came here and I sat inside today. I know the staff sees it but chooses not to say anything. People letting their pets inside, on the furniture, is disgusting.. this is a health department violation esp when the pets are licking the tables. I do hope management addresses this issue. Just one pic of a few dogs that's were inside. read more

Overall nice experience at this cafe! There is lots of parking and indoor/outdoor seating, we were able to find a spot to sit on a busy Saturday. I thought the mint latte was refreshing and not too sweet, and the food came out shortly after! The green egg scramble was tasty and I enjoyed the bread and avocado that it came with (though I was missing a salsa or something spicy!). I paid ~$30 including tip. My friend ordered the chicken Caesar salad wrap and was disappointed in the size! She was expecting a filling "burrito size", but it was definitely more "snack size". It doesn't help that it's plated alone on a large plate, exaggerating its disappointing size. Id come back again! Avoiding the wraps if hungry. read more

Came for Mother's Day on a whim, expecting a long line or wait time and I was surprised. While it's a more causal restaurant, you wait in line to order then help yourself to self seating, the line wasn't very long. I just wish they assigned seating instead of free-for-all seating because some customers are ruthless. And honestly that's their biggest flaw. The food took awhile to come out but it was well worth the weight, the protein waffles were a huge hit with the kiddos. I'd definitely recommend this place but try during the week and expect a bit of a wait for seating. read more

It's just a cute, casual cafe with quality ingredients. And they let me camp out all day with my laptop without blinking twice about it. Of course, I continued to place orders throughout my stay, but I really appreciated the relaxed and welcoming hospitality. Got a lot of work done! I'm a patio girl, but I chose to sit inside because it looked so comfortable and cute. Tropical meets Legally Blonde. Once I settled in, I didn't want to leave. read more

So I've been to this location a couple of times. There is always a line for sure. I thought the prices are a little on the higher side but it is also location impacted. However, everything I've tried, I've enjoyed. The first time I came I got a latte and a pastry I believe. This time, Sunday I got a lemon blueberry scone which I was pleasantly surprised by. My niece didn't care for it but I really enjoyed the taste. Lots of blueberries and not too sweet at all. I wished I had asked them to heat it up. On Monday, I got the mint latte and I enjoyed it as well. Cute cup if nothing else. I do need to come back and grab actual food item. Next time. SYOY! read more

Parakeet in Newport is my favorite cafe. The food is amazing, is healthier than most places, and uses no seed oils! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service is exceptional and I love the ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Every detail is on brand; even down to the pink heart-shaped stopper for the to-go cups![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is also very peaceful with a nice view of the ocean across PCH.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I enjoy going here to relax while I work. When I visited on Tuesday, I was welcomed with Tay's friendly smile. She now knows my drink order by heart. Megan and Sean also made a point to say hi to me and have a brief conversation. They always make me feel like they are happy to see me! This trip my Chai tasted off and when I brought it to Tay, she asked questions and offered to make a new one with a smile. The barista, Luke, even came out to ask questions with a friendly attitude. He recognized me and my order from previous visits and went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with my beverage. He asked questions and was very proactive. Once he made my new beverage, he delivered it to me and made sure I enjoyed it, which I did. The Poke Bowl I had for lunch was delicious! It is super refreshing during the warmer days and the sauce as a nice kick to it. I always recommend Parakeet all the time to my friends and others, and they always enjoy their experience. read more

Pricy & popular but very good healthy options which is great when you're on vacation(need to balance with all the drinking & eating bad stuff lol) After reading reviews raving about SoCal burrito I was excited to try it.I was a little underwhelmed it was mostly rice with a little beans and mushrooms.I ordered extra salsa but they only gave me a tiny amount.I regretted not adding some protein to it. I also had the green goddess salad,not bad. Husband had tuna sandwich liked it except for the gluten free bread. My daughter liked her chicken Cesar wrap.We probably wouldn't go out of our way to eat here but our daughter lives in area and is a big fan! read more

I love coming here! Even the drive there on PCH is part of the experience and always puts me in a good mood. My go-tos are the jicama chips & the waffers. Especially the chai and mocha flavored ones. Supee satisfying and surprisingly low calories. Theyre around 30-45 calories per pack and they keep me full longer than I expect. I literally drive 20 minutes to stock up on snacks for the week. Besides the snacks Ive tried their lattes which are also delicious. They also serve other food items & pastries, I have never tried them but I want to go back one of these days for brunch because they look amazing. The cafe itself is gorgeous too.. it feels warm and beautifully decorated. read more

A Beautiful location and a great stop after a Crystal Cove hike. Its a casual Cafe that has you ordering at the counter with the food being brought to you. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The menu emphasizes healthy and organic selections with modifications to some items, allowing you to make it paleo, vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free. No seed oils used here. The only oil used includes olive oil, avocado, and coconut oil. Although the cashier was super friendly, her knowledge on the menu was limited. We had a few questions on ingredients and modifications and she couldn't offer substitutions available or ingredients in a dish. She did ask the chef, which I appreciate, but it slows down the line and doesn't answer all our questions. We ordered the breakfast burrito, which included scrambled eggs and roasted potatoes. I removed the labneh to make it dairy free and substituted it for guacamole. I also had them remove the pico de gallo and ordered the burrito with a gluten free tortilla. The burrito was hearty and flavorful and the guacamole was definitely a good swap. We also ordered the French Omlette sandwich. The eggs were fluffy and perfectly cooked. The homemade brioche bun was delicious and fresh. I Hate to say this, but this sandwich had way to many greens with some tasting inedible. Although a bit pricey, we enjoyed our meal, and customer service was great. I do feel they could use more staff. I felt bad for the only girl working the floor who had to deliver food, and clear and clean the tables. She wiped the food off the outdoor tables onto the floor and it was never swept up. We looked down and realized the floor had a lot of food scraps. read more

Very cute cafe in Newport Coast with a charming ambiance and fresh, healthy food options. They also make a great cappuccino. There was an issue with the restroom toilet not flushing properly and when I advised a staff member that I managed to flush it after a couple of attempts, but that they would probably want to get it checked out (as I heard another patron mention the issue as well), I received a insincere "thank you" that I felt would be discarded. If the toilet and staff attitude are resolved, I would certainly return. read more

What a cute little spot! I came on a Sunday morning after hiking Crystal Cove. It's was busy very busy.

It's located inside a shopping center with plenty of parking. The workers were friendly. And the coffee was tasty. I just had a plain latte with their house made pistachio milk. I would love to come back to try their food! read more

Parakeet Café has become one of our family's favorite breakfast spots. Everything we've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and consistently excellent. Their lattes and smoothies are especially outstanding and are always a must-order for us. We visit regularly, and the experience is always worth it, even when the line is out the door. Mari is incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming, and the entire staff does a wonderful job making guests feel appreciated. It's one of those places we're always excited to return to, and it's also one of the first places we recommend when friends or family are visiting. Great food, great drinks, and even better service.

Our server Tay was the sweetest girl ever! She and I had a very nice conversation. She seemed so attentive and personable. Definitely would recommend coming to this café for not only the good food and the good service but for the aesthetic of it. read more

Tay provided some of the best customer service I've had in a long time. When I tried my drink, she came over and genuinely asked me to be honest about how I liked it. I told her it wasn't really for me, and without hesitation she offered to remake it. She checked in again afterward to make sure I loved the new drink, and that level of care really stood out. You can tell she genuinely wants customers to have a great experience, not just serve them and move on. Thank you, Tay, for going above and beyond with such kindness and great service. I'll definitely be back read more

Delicious and beautiful food. I had the poke bowl and a tea. Nice, friendly staff and enjoyed their dog friendly outdoor patio.

I generally manage my expectations do my research, etc. however today just wasn't the day for me at parakeet Café. Being that it was a holiday of course the shopping center and parakeet were busy as usual with a small line out the door. Parking was a bit of a challenge, but no fault to the café. I queued up and was immediately greeted by the female order to take her/cashier with black hair. She was phenomenal. Very friendly I explained where we would be sitting since the front café seating area was full and she took note of it. We opted for the tuna sandwich, the tuna tartare with chips, and Arnold Palmer, and an iced tea. The total for the bill was over $40 plus tip. We were able to move our seats into the designated parakeet café dining area. A male food runner/server about 6 foot tall with short brown hair brought out our second beverage and then return several minutes later with the order. The tuna sandwich was just OK. There was some flavor that was putting me off from enjoying it. I would have to go back to the ingredients to specifically find out what that was. But it was a very small portion of fresh tuna. (Not tuna salad) on a very dry, crusty, hard to choose sourdough bread. It made the sandwich unenjoyable. We opted to have the potatoes which were the star of the meal. Those were delicious. You have an option for salad or potatoes and we chose potatoes. The tuna tartare with chips was similar to the tuna salad. If not the same I didn't really pay attention. The chips were good. Overall everyone knows you can get a similar item next-door at Bear flag. I'm not a fan of Bare flag. The sounded like an interesting starter to have with our meal. The beverages were fine. Overall, the experience was good, but nothing stands out as extraordinary. I know people love it for many of the benefits, including no seed oil, fresh baked items, vegetarian, gluten-free, etc. that is fantastic. I would probably come back and try other items maybe one of the toast or wraps. read more

Parakeet Café - Newport Coast - 5/5 stars Parakeet Café has always been a favorite of mine from their Coronado location, so I was thrilled to see they opened a spot in Newport Coast! The vibe here is just as stylish and welcoming....bright, airy, and perfect for catching up with a friend or getting a little work done. Their hot mocha is still my go-to drink: rich, not overly sweet, and made with quality ingredients that you can really taste. That said, their menu is packed with other tempting options from beautifully crafted lattes to refreshing wellness drinks and smoothies. They also have a great selection of fresh pastries, breakfast items, and healthy bites, all with that signature Parakeet touch. It's quickly become one of my favorite places in the area, and I'm so glad they've expanded to Newport. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the neighborhood! read more
