Staff are nice and different staff to take order, bring out foods and clean your dishes. Must order Coffee Cake, it's soft and fluffy. Topped with glaze which is not overly sweet. 5/5 Killer Burrito comes with a side, which I recommend the potatoes. Homemade soft potatoes and great seasoning. Burrito has scoop of sour cream and guacamole on top. Second time ordering this burrito. 5/5 I wish this place was in Orange County

Post 5k run we wanted to celebrate with breakfast and decided Beach Break Cafe was the spot! I was…read morevery excited to try the banana crunch French toast. I love bananas and french toast, so this was the perfect choice. It was sweet but not sickeningly sweet. The bananas were very ripe, but I personally enjoy them this way. The crunch looks to be an oat and crushed nut mixture? I wasn't too sure but it was delicious nonetheless. Everything tasted very good, I enjoyed my side of hash browns, however I prefer them to be a little crunchier. They tasted great regardless. I will say they were superrrr busy, so do expect to wait if you go on a weekend morning. I think they might use bleach to clean the tables, which I'm glad they disinfect between patrons but the table smelled like bleach the whole time, so if that's something that bothers you, maybe ask to sit inside? I think the tablecloth material just holds onto scent idk. Service wasn't the best either, but they were packed so I understand. The workers were nice, we came at an awkward time where they were switching waitstaff for breaks and whatnot, so I think we kinda got forgotten once our food came out lol it took a while to get the check

It was early enough that we were able to get a seat inside. It's pretty small inside but super cozy, they also have sitting outside so you can enjoy the view.

When we are in the area again we will definitely be back.

Cute little brunch spot with great customer service!…read more Came here for brunch with a friend. Got the chilaquiles, buttermilk pancakes and Goddess Avocado toast. It was just okay. The chilaquiles were a 7/10 Pancakes 8/10, and the avocado toast 8/10 We got the mimosa flight and that was a 9/10 Also got an orange juice but it was questionable 3/10. It's an order on the counter and seat yourself kind of service, but we did have someone come by often to check on us and our food. Restroom was clean and everyone was friendly! I'll be back again to try the lobster benedict!

The restaurant is self seating after you order and the restaurant is consistently clean, soft music in the background, and rotating artists are featured on their walls. We love coming here (weekly if possible). We like to bring our pups and sit on the sizable patio outside, but there is more than enough room to sit inside too. The front of the house team is always moving (serving, cleaning, welcoming guests, etc.) but they are they are always personable and polite. Thank you to Joey who helped us today; we left the register laughing. I know this may see small to some, but the service here seems to care a little more and that has made a big difference in our experiences.

I was hoping for a bigger selection of pastries but know item availability can fluctuate. There were 4-5 different pastries. There was a good selection of desserts. I was there on a Friday morning around 9:30. There were several open tables. It was about a 5 minute wait for my iced latte. Both pastries were tasty. The Croissant was buttery goodness. I appreciated that it didn't flake everywhere. I only had a bite of the Cinnamon Raisin Roll. That was my husband's and he enjoyed it. Plenty of raisins. Service is great. I interacted with 3 different employees and all were very nice. Staff is upbeat. They appeared to get along well with each other. It made for a great experience all around.

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.

Such a cute and homey coffee shop!…read more The interior is beautiful and cozy.... The location is tucked in within a residential area which makes it even more Home-y...... The coffee is delicious! The burrito is GIANT and delish! The bagel tasted so fresh and awesome! The Avocado toast can be passed upon! It is nothing special for the price that you are paying! As for the service, it is the one aspect that needs some loving if you will..... To that NOT so friendly employee who brought us our food, please use your brain and bring utensils to your guests. That is a common sense right?!! I guess not for her. To make things worse, after going to the front and asking for utensils, they handed me cheap plastic ones. To the owner of this place, PLEASE invest on some regular utensils instead of plastic ones! I don't think it is too much to ask! Thank you somuch!

From the moment we arrived, Sierra greeted us with her kindness and attentiveness. She was warm, welcoming, and genuinely present, checking in at just the right moments without ever feeling intrusive. It was clear she truly cared about creating a positive experience, and that level of attentiveness made a big difference. Bryce was equally impressive in his approach. What shined was his care and attention to detail, especially when it came to accommodating my allergies. He made a point to ask questions before taking action, ensuring that everything was handled safely and thoughtfully. I appreciated how realistic and transparent he was about what could and couldn't be modified, which helped build trust and made me feel more at ease navigating the menu. His professionalism and awareness were evident throughout. Drea also made a strong impression with her calm and reassuring presence. She approached everything with a sense of patience and understanding, and I felt genuinely understood and validated in my requests and concerns. Her demeanor helped create a relaxed environment, which is especially meaningful when dealing with dietary needs. She balanced efficiency with empathy in a way that felt very natural. As for the food and drinks, my friend really enjoyed the Buccaneer smoothie and even went back for a second cup of drip coffee, which they said was smooth and satisfying. I had an avocado, egg, and tortilla burrito, and I especially liked the house brown sugar coffee, which had a rich, slightly sweet flavor that came through as a highlight for me. Overall, while navigating modifications can sometimes be challenging, the staff made the experience feel manageable and supportive. Their kindness, attentiveness, and willingness to accommodate made a lasting impression, and it's clear that the team truly values customer care. I appreciated the window so we could order outside, sit outside, be right by the ocean and have access to restrooms.

I ordered the California breakfast burrito with kalua pork, and wow--easily one of the most delicious burritos I've had. The flavors were incredible, perfectly balanced, and just ridiculously satisfying. I'm honestly a little sad I'm just visiting because I know I'm going to be craving this long after I leave. I paired it with a Mexi mocha, which was also fantastic--rich and comforting, with that nostalgic Abuelita chocolate vibe that makes it feel extra special. On top of the amazing food, the service was super sweet and impressively fast. And the view? You really can't beat enjoying your meal right by the beach. All around, an unforgettable casual breakfast experience. I'll definitely be thinking about that burrito for a long time.

Located in the SeaBird Resort in downtown Oceanside right across from the beach, Piper has that classy beachside aesthetic with light grey and sand wood colors. They have a nice outside area for drinks and lounging, but we ate inside. We had a reservation for a Saturday evening and when we arrived, we were sat right away. Our party of 4 started off with the Prager Bros bread & whipped butter with sea salt and the Grilled Peaches appetizer. The grilled peaches came with burrata cheese and I really liked the two flavors and consistencies together. A friend got the lobster & coconut soup, whipped smoked eggplant, and I had the house-made spaghetti and meatball. It was a beef meatball My other friend got the Steak frites which was grilled prime NY Steak with bone marrow, chimichurri and of course french fries. Also good.

The restaurant was not very busy as I saw some open tables. Our waiter really was the worst. He seemed inattentive and then borderline rude when we asked to order. We sat down and got our food 2 hours later. Then we sat around for another hour waiting for our dessert/coffees and finally the check. A total time of 3 hours for dinner and the restaurant itself was flashing lights to indicate it was closing. You would think that would mean they hurried to get us settled out. Nope, the employees were just talking to each other and starting to close down...and apparently forgot about us. Some of our party started to leave because it was way too long to wait. The food was overall fine. Some plates were good and some were lackluster. The decor was sophisticated and obviously going for an upscale vibe. The bill finally came after we asked multiple times and it totaled over $1,000 and it really was dissatisfying. I would recommend everyone take their business elsewhere. There are better spots to blow some cash.
