We went for their new dinner service. We have regularly been going since they opened for breakfast or to pick up their pastries. The experience did not disappoint. The elevated dinner experience was top notice. The service was excellent. We started with the crispy artichokes. They were not only beautiful but they were delicious. For dinner my wife had the halibut which was light and delicious. I had the crispy chicken which lived up to its named with excellent flavors. For dessert we had the snickers dome and the Lychee Panna Cotta. Both were unique and fun. Thank you Rose Cafe for a wonderful experience and we will be back! read more

Rose Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oceanside, California

Stopped by for lunch and my first impression was oh cute, clean, and friendly the staff was. We ordered the tomato ricotta toast and added prosciutto, the chicken pesto sandwich, and chicken tenders and fries for our son. The chicken pesto sandwich was our favorite in part because of the delicious crispy baguette it was on. Our son loved the fries which were very food. I tried his chicken tenders and was pleasantly surprised how moist they were given it was chicken breast. Oh and the outer coating was very crispy. If we were locals we definitely would be going back. read more

Rose Cafe was iconic. So freaking cute. So delicious. I loved everything about this place! First of all, you walk in and it's so pretty! There's a stunning wall of roses to the right, the main counter is full of pink items and accessories, and the shelves to the left are tall and full of cute, pink items for sale. I wanted one of everything. Then we get to ordering food and coffee. The menu seems small but there are so many adventurous and delicious items! My friend and I ordered 2 entrees each so that we could try more things and take food home for later. I even got the most scrumptious smoothie that was so refreshing! The service was really great too. I waited for my friend who was running late before I ordered and the girl working was really patient and didn't rush me to order. Then when we did order, she was super nice. She even brought our food and drinks to the table! I can't wait to go back! 12/10! read more

The staff here were great, attentive and friendly. Sat outside because it was a beautiful day and inside was full. Ordered the Rose Burger 7/10 great size needed a little more aioli but great flavor and Iced Strawberry Matcha. I originally got the iced Hawaiian Matcha which had guava purée needed to be sweeter for my taste, but overall fun idea. Outdoor seating has umbrellas. Such a cute brunch spot near the beach. Chef Katie was in the building and rocking the kitchen! Thanks Rose Cafe read more

My friend had been wanting to try this place so we made our way over for coffee and breakfast. I was excited to give it a try after she'd mentioned it had a ton of 5-star reviews, but after our experience here I'm underwhelmed to say the least, sticking with a 3-star review. I think of aesthetic/presentation, service, cleanliness and tastebuds when I give a rating: - Aesthetic: Shop location wasn't quite what I was expecting from the outside but walking in revealed a cute, pink and floral decor. It felt a bit flimsy rather than true elegance but the attention to atmosphere was definitely there. Food and latte presentation was awesome. - Service: The gal at the register was kind. I made my pick finally but was then told they were out. I became very aware of the line forming behind me and stepped away not wanting to hold things up. - Cleanliness: They were slow to bus / wipe down tables. We had one next to us that took our whole time there to get cleaned. - Tastebuds: probably the most disappointing of all that drove the 3-star. I ordered a gluten free avocado toast and the bread was so thick and bland (with the texture of corn bread) that it was impossible to enjoy. The coffee was good, not great. And my friend really didn't enjoy her chai which she usually loves. -- TLDR: Cute shop, cute presentations, okay service, okay coffee, not palatable for gluten free bread substitutes.

The food was horrible and bland. I ordered the quiche and it was hard and rubbery. The crust was burnt. I ended up saying something before leaving. I wasn't looking for a refund, but I wanted to inform the chef, so she could fix it. Service was ehh...not friendly at all. I paid with a $100 bill and gave a $5 tip for not good service and the funny thing is she gave me the wrong change. She missed counted a $20 bill (my bad for not looking at my change), so a $25 tip for not friendly service and a horrible lunch. I won't be back. Ambiance is cute because everything is pink with roses. read more

Great food, service, and interior. Met a friend here for brunch and everything we ordered was so good. She got the egg sandwich I believe and I had gotten the weekly quiche special, which was with cheese, corn, and broccoli. We ended up also splitting the ube waffles and those were so delicious. I grew up eating ube desserts and definitely recommend you try their waffles! It's a subtle ube, which I enjoy because sometimes ube flavors can come off as artificial tasting. Also recommend their matcha lemonade! I had mine with passionfruit and guava as recommended and it was so refreshing. I live in OC and would definitely make the drive down again! read more

Quiet lil cafe along Coast Hwy. one of the best Chai Tea Latte I've found in a very long time. Also enjoyed their avocado breakfast toast. Add the friendly service and it is definitely a jewel in S O'Side. read more

Food is a 5, but service is a 2. Positive: the foods we tried were incredible. Negative: Service was inconsistent. When she brought us our food, I asked her if they had any dipping sauces and she told me they have a garlic aioli I could try. Shortly after, the male customer seated next to me asked her the same thing, and she happily said "we have a few fun ones. We've got a sriracha aioli and garlic aioli". She then brought him both sauces. Both my husband and I recognized that and wondered why she didn't offer the same to me... and it left me feeling like I was mistreated. I wonder if she's kinder to men, or did we not tip to her standards? The prices for some options are definitely overpriced, such as $22 for waffles, which we genuinely wouldn't mind since it's delicious.. but given the seemingly purposeful inconsistent lack of service, I'm not sure we'll be adding this business to our rotation of brunch locations. read more

We went to Rose Cafe before we headed to Oceanside Beach in California. The service was amazing. I really appreciated the enthusiasm of the staff. They gave my kids activities to do without even being asked. They were also very well versed of the menu. The food was delicious; they bake their own bread which was really fresh! My kids loved their smoothie though they did say it didn't as flavorful as it looked. The decoration inside was so adorable and clean. I would visit again and try other things on their menu! read more

Came here with a friend for brunchies and left extremely satisfied. The cafe is so cute and so pastel pink!! I ordered the ube waffles and an iced London fog. The ube waffles are to die for! It's perfectly sweet and the drizzle/fruit on top balances the sweetness with tartness. I ate every single crumb on my plate because I simply could not get enough!! And the London Fog was also so good, plus the straws are hearts! Like how cute is that!! The Rose Cafe has amazing service, very friendly staff, and really good food. If you need a spot for brekky/lunch and in between, to study or read, or to chat with friends and family, the Rose Cafe is a great spot. Also, it has a parking lot! read more

I enjoyed that this is still a place that serves you your food and coffee the ladies here were really sweet will be coming again when in town read more

Bright and airy, Instagramable cafe that serves delicious breakfast, lunch and now dinner! However, from the outside, it's a non descript plaza business which does little to set the vibe and expectations for its remarkable food and cute cozy ambiance. Veggie scramble was the best we've ever tried My high protein salmon toast was surprisingly sooooo delicious. And all the foods especially the ube Belgium waffles and açaí bowl were so prettily displayed. We are saving this place to come again! read more

Very cute place! It's very intimate inside, but I love the feel of a true coffee shop.

The name describes this small cafe - a lovely rose wall, rose colored dishes, and all around rosy attitude of the employees. We came in on Father's Day and saw other nearby places where the lines were out the door. We found a table immediately and were allowed time to wait for the rest of our group of 5 to arrive. Order at the counter and they will bring the food to you. I ordered my regular americano and was so very happy! Smooth and hot! The food was delivered straight from the kitchen and piping hot - breakfast sandwiches, pancakes, tater tots, and açaí bowl (not hot!). Everything was delicious and served with a smile. The beignets were hot, crispy on the outside and soft to bite into, dipped in the right amount of sugar and served atop a delicious raspberry sauce. Great little place! read more

Went on a Saturday morning, wasn't too busy so it was nice and not that long of a wait, maybe 10-15mins total from order to pick up. I only went for lattes, did not know it was a dine in restaurant, I shall come back and try their food. But for this visit, I got an iced mocha latte and an iced matcha latte. The mocha was a 4/5. The only problem was they put chocolate syrup around the cup that froze due to the ice so you can't really mix it into the drink, overall the taste was good. The matcha latte is also a 4/5, it comes unsweetened so I asked for it to be sweetened with vanilla syrup and it still tasted unsweetened to me. It tasted like it had a small hint of vanilla but once I put some sugar in my matcha, it tasted a lot better. The aesthetic of the cafe is very pink and cute. I like how they have couches with the tables and many photo opportunities. I would love to come back and try out their food. read more

So this is my 4th or 5th times here since Rose Cafe opened, and it's a permanent keeper for me. I absolutely love how humble the staff is but also Chef and owner Katie. I am slowly learning their closing hours, but at end, my eldest and I were grateful to learn how the Rose Cafe came to be. I'm proud of Chef Katie for jumping into small business ownership as everything she has shown so far exceeds 5 stars, in my humble opinion. The coffee is delicious to include pastries and delicious meals for someone looking for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. read more

What a yummy new cafe in Oceanside! We came as a group of 5 and ordered just about everything on the menu. The restaurant is a bit small, but we managed to fit between a few tables. They have free spa like water which we drank. The food arrived within about 10 minutes and everything was plated beautifully The food was all delicious and refreshing. Would definitely come back again! Parking is super easy, there is a lot in front of the restaurant however I imagine when it gets busy, it'll get very busy! read more

They also serve up a mouth-watering pork belly, roasted in-house for their lunch menu. We can't wait for you to try it! ‌ The Rose Café aims to bring comfort food with a sophisticated twist, making it a perfect spot for intimate dates too. I like this! I totally enjoyed my: ‌ Waffles with raspberry curd, berry syrup and fresh berries ‌ Nuts & berries tartine with our house-made pistachio butter, raspberry jam, fresh berries, chia seed and coconut flakes ‌ Tuna tartine - avocado, sesame seed, wasabi aioli, seared tuna, crispy shallot and topped with a chili garlic oil & micro cilantro ‌ Vanilla bean croissant, stuffed butter croissant with vanilla bean pastry cream and topped with freeze dried strawberries ‌ Lavender Madeline cookie ‌ Raspberry shortbread cookie ‌ Lemon tart with meringue I hope everyone can get a chance to experience this small & quaint café that is a gem in South O. read more

This is a very nice quaint little cafe. There are about 6 to 7 tables and a couple of couches. You order your food at the counter and they bring the food out to you. The cafe is very clean and neat. The staff are all very friendly and attentive. They have an assortment of pastries that are displayed at the counter and they all look fresh and tasty. There are a variety of options for coffee and tea lovers and a decent amount of delishes breakfast options. We decided to try the drip coffee, ordered a few breakfast plates and a couple rose tarts. The food was made perfect and tasted fresh and delicious. The price point was very reasonable for the amount of food you get. If you are in the Carlsbad neighborhood and would like to go to a nice, friendly, cute atmosphere with delicious food options, I would definitely stop by Rose Cafe! read more

The Rose Cafe is so cute! It's the perfect spot for brunch with the girls, and I'm obsessed with the decor--everything is pink, right down to the straws. I've visited twice and tried the food, too. The coffee is amazing, perfectly balanced and not too sweet, just how I like it. I brought my best friend here, and she must have said "this is so cute" like 80 times--because it truly is! The service is wonderful, the staff is super friendly, and the place is always spotless. While the pricing is comparable to other spots in the area, I do think it's a bit on the higher side, especially for the coffee, as they charge extra for alternative milks and sweeteners. But honestly, I'm a firm believer in the "if you can't afford it, don't go" mentality. For me, the coffee is definitely worth the splurge! The food is delicious, and I've never been disappointed--nor have the friends I've brought along. Everything is incredibly fresh, and the seating is super cozy. Whether I'm grabbing food to go or sitting down for a meal, they always pay attention to every detail. Even the to-go utensils are wrapped up with cute little pink bows! This cafe is definitely at the top of my list--I love trying new spots, and this one's close to home, so I'll definitely be back! read more

Cafe Rose has been here for almost a month now, and I have to say I am so glad they're here!! Most items are made in-house: from their pastries down to the raspberry creme that comes with the ube waffles. EATS. * Ube waffles. So good! It's one big waffle cut up into 4 pieces. Also served with some strawberries and blueberries. The raspberry curd that compliments it is devine! * Broccolini and cheddar egg sando. The bread is on point! So good, fresh and goes so well with the rest of the ingredients! Love that they used broccolini. This is the perfect sandwich (and I am not a sandwich person). * Tater tots. They're kind of salty. We had two orders and ended up throwing them out. * Açaí bowl ($13). They make this fresh, but I thought it had too much apple juice. The texture and consistency came out nice, but was quickly watered down in 5 minutes which made it hard to eat. It was sweeter than most that I've had, but I loved how much fruit they put in it! * Kids breakfast ($8). Not posted on the menu, so you'll have to ask about this one. 2 eggs (how you like it, we got it scrambled), toast or tots, and a few strips of bacon. Our scrambled eggs were less than desirable. I'm not sure if milk was added or if they were from a carton, but this was our least favorite item so far. They brought out the croque madame for another customer, and he inhaled it! He then came back and asked what he ordered again because it was so good. This just gave me another excuse to come back and try it! COFFEE. * Beans are from Cafe Calabria for you coffee lovers out there! * mocha was perfect * cortado was perfect, too! The portion size is so generous with their dishes, and the attention to detail is thought out in each dish. The plate for the ube waffles, the plate for the sandwich make them both photo worthy. Even the way they prepare coffee is IG worthy, too. LOCATION. * Took over the old Naegi spot (for those of you familiar to this area, they're on the corner of Coast Hwy and Kelly). * To the left of the laundry mat Overall I'd give it a 4.5 stars. Happy 3 1/2 weeks Cafe Rose! Welcome to the neighborhood, so glad you're here - because I will definitely be back. #SupportLocal read more

Met friends for breakfast recently. Three of us had the Dirty Breakfast Tots, very good and a big portion! One friend ordered beignets for the table, unfortunately they weren't fully cooked. They apologized but since there were no more they offered to refund or provide something else from their pastry case. Perfect, she chose some pastries. The friend who had the 3 eggs your way didn't enjoy the cook on the eggs, but liked the rest. Would try again. Very cute place. read more
