    Huevos Pericos con Arepa
    Marcela F.

    It's a little hidden gem. Located in a residential area of coastal San Pedro. It has a patio and music I believe it's on wknds. Friendly service and clean environment. They had a Colombian fundraiser for the earthquakes. We had the Huevos Pericos con Arepa. Delish!

    VW's

    We went to the corner store for a little local event with a bunch of VW buses and some local vendors. I had a wonderful Americano and enjoyed sitting out on a beautiful day. All their pastries in the display case looked amazing. I wish they had some vegan options for that. However, the coffee was great, the ambience was lovely, and we will go back again when they have some live music.

    Tres leches
    Brenda L.

    The good: I tried a Popeye's spinach wrap with turkey and bell peppers. The store is very cute and nestled in a neighborhood giving it a true "corner store" feel. The interior is spacious with vaulted ceilings and is very kid-friendly. They sell Melissa and Doug toys, placemats for kids, and have crayons out that kids can use to draw. I know they're known for their cheesecake but I tried the tres leches instead and it was great! It was balanced with the right amount of sweetness/moisture. The wrap comes with your choice of a side and I chose the chips. The salt and crunch helped balance the wrap which was softer/blander. The wrap tasted fresh and the bell pepper was refreshing and different. The bad: I wish the wrap came standard with mayo and mustard instead of us having to add it in from packets on the side. The server forgot to make the almond latte so I had to go up to the counter to request it. The almond latte tasted very much of artificial almond flavoring. My husband wasn't a huge fan of it. I didn't care for the canned peach slice on the tres leches but it did make it look pretty. The interesting: I like their random assortment of things in the store. Some stuff like wine and charcuterie boards were displayed on a long table. Other items displayed on an old stove. Beer in the back in the big fridge. Random shelves with chips or toys. They also sold tons of local clothing items like sweaters, dog clothes and hats. It's walking distance to an ocean view.

    This establishment was such a gem to find while visiting the area on Father's Day. My experience here was bliss, the service here was great. Thank you to the staff that took my order as well as whoever prepared my incredible meal. You guys exceeded any expectation I could've had. Thank you again to the individual who took my order and helped me choose some pastries to take home, you have great taste. Made my experience better with your presence, thank you for trying to close the box with the pastries inside. I was also surprised to see that there was live music being played by this sweet couple while I ate inside, thank you two as well for amplifying the ambience with your voice and talent. I would visit more if not for that fact I live an hour away. Thank you.

    Got the Breakfast Sandwich with Sausage. Very enjoyable. I had the bagel substituted with a croissant. The croissant was crispy, flaky and buttery. The gentleman behind the counter confirmed that the croissant was made in house. Good amount of cheesy gooeyness in the sandwich. Dining is available inside plus some tables outside. Ordering can be done at the register or via kiosk. TCS is located in the middle of a residential area. I went there on a Sunday morning and did not have any issues finding parking in the street. Service was very friendly, helpful and prompt.

    Super cute hidden gem! Glad I got to try it, they have pretty basic "cafe" food items like pastries and breakfast sandwiches, coffee etc. I ended up ordering a breakfast sandwich, and was able to substitute the bagel it comes on for a croissant which was really nice of them to do for me, along with a regular latte, it all tasted really good! Our food came out at a reasonable time but the drinks did take quite a while, however the worker formally apologized to us & said that's not typical for them & it just so happen to get busy right behind us, which was true! but I really appreciated her taking a moment to apologize for something she had not a lot of control over, that gave me really good vibes & is a 10/10 customer service for me! Would definitely come back here for the nice chill environment and to try other things from their menu! :)

    Tuna & Egg Sandwich.

    Hands down one of the best tuna sandwiches I've ever had. The bread is perfectly toasted, and the combination of the creamy tuna, fresh avocado, egg, and crispy veg is incredible. The mac salad on the side is super creamy and the pickle is the perfect tangy finish. The service is always excellent. The ambience was calm and relaxing. The Corner Store never misses!

    Food took FOREVER. We asked for water and after waiting 20 minutes, they only brought out one and it had black stuff in it. Disgusting

    Giraffe is back and a callback to the wagon!
    Mark B.

    The corner Store may not be 100% back but the new owners apparently were gifted the old giraffe and they had some music scheduled! I appreciated the previous owners changing some things like opening the side yard, but I was lost when the Sailor's Delight fell off the menu. I can say it's back! It tastes great - maybe a tad smaller than before - but it and chips with a Dads Root Beer was great. Some benches to sit at. A great start! Not many "odd/ interesting sodas" but the Portuguese Blend was really good too.

    I've been coming to this cute and nostalgic place called The Corner Store for over 20years and it pained my heart to see my childhood diminish owner after owner. BUT I am happy to say that I really think this new owner David seems to be putting in the necessary work to revive The Corner Store & I couldn't be happier ! My friend and I stopped by today and ordered 2 iced horchata lattes, a chorizo breakfast burrito and some baked goods. Definitely excited for what is to come. The breakfast burrito was delicious & so are the Italian sodas they make! Croissant Cinnamon roll warmed up; yes please !! MUST be warmed up though! Go show them some love and support!

    Our eBike Group stopped here today for lunch. The food was very good. We had everything from wraps to sandwiches along with different drinks and the service was excellent. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. We already talked about going here on a regular basis.

    Great environment! The staff is really nice!!! But my order was completed wrong. Ordered a chorizo bagel sandwich and got a sausage bagel that was burnt a bit!?

No acknowledgment of the 15% tip I just gave him. Why aren't the employees in this deli happy? It wasn't overly busy. The A/C was working fine. I've worked in far worse conditions at their age. The sandwich was very good. Ingredients were fresh. Bread was perfect. But the employees seem sad.

You grab your own number, type it into the electronic ordering screen, pay, and find a table. There are more tables outdoors than inside. There are enough, but the tables are a little crowded inside, in terms of spacial location. There's a soda fountain machine located in the back. I found a table. My food and bottled water didn't take too long. My Mediterranean bowl was fresh and absolutely delicious. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. All fresh ingredients. The kale wasn't dry. The bread was fresh, but a little salty. Staff are friendly and efficient. I noticed they clear tables right away, after customers leave. Parking: Plenty of free, shared parking lot.

    This place is a sleeper. The reason why I say that is because if I pass a place that reads pizza…read morefor take-out, I imagine budget quality. And the food from here was expensive in taste, and not costly either. What I want to eventually say, is that this place has unique pizza flavors, excellent service, moderate prices, and eye-catching ecore that makes the wait for the take-out order seem less, cause one can distract themselves with the cartoons on the wall. Preapre the brick pizza oven a review will be baked that honors this place with robust prose. I was celebrating a friend's birhtday. And the day got gone, without me really placing attention to the food I was going to honor him with. I had been invited to this place in the past (a Yelp experience) and I found the food good enough to remember. So I trusted that this place would somehow deliver cheese and sauce goodness to honor someone I consider a brother, from another mother. And to be honest, this place was close enough to be a choice option. But now the relatively closeness to this place is a plus, the food is the reason why I am going to go back. I surveyed the menu and I decided to do the Sausage Hunter, without the mushrooms. I realized that Sausage Hunter could be a name of a movie about a cougar gone wild. And the pizza was fantastic. The main flavor pop was the sausage. It provided meaty flavor and the fennel elevated the taste to Mozza-like quality. Not that this place can compete with Mozza that is not the point. More like the pizza of this place was unique enough to be called gourmet like the type you find at Mozza. And the pizza here was more accessbile in taste, price point, and does not require one wear shoes. One can enter here in sandals. I do not think I can do that at Mozza. Maybe. I won't try though. This place does not do itself justice with its name. Perhaps it can be called Piccini Gourment pizza to-go. Regardless, the pizza was a standout: White sauce, dollops of pesto, parmessean, mozzarella, and care. Hopefully one can see that these ingredients are not run of the mill pepperoni and olives. Even writing them seemed decadent and like I had enter a Nonna's kitchen on the eve where she was cooking for her only grandaughter's wedding. On this day, the sauce had to be white, in case she spilled it, it would match the dress. Imagine if she spilled red sauce on her white gown? Nonna's know what suace to make for each day. Since I rushed through my day I did not have time to buy plates, napkins, and forks for the mini party i was hosting. And yet I had a cake to provide to someone and also this pie. So I asked one of the workers, in a hushed whisper, do you mind providing me extra plates, and forks and napkins. And she was like how many? Anhe md I with a feeling of guilt I said 15. My inner person cringed. I got ready for the no, perhpas delivered in an italian accent. And the person who helped me said, I got you, with happy conviction. She did not make me feel like an ogre who pillaged a village of its straw and pitchforks to give utensils and comfortable seating for his ogre friends when he forgot to purchase these items on the way to the pit where the party was being held. Her behavior was attentive past the line of service. It was no wonder her name was Precious. I took a clip of the mural. It looked like a serious artist painted with crayons. It showed gelato and people about to kiss while racing to the center of a spaghetti strand. It had many things to see and wonder about while you waited like I said at the start of the review. So there was thought here, I think. What can stimulate people while they wait for their pizza besides their phone? Colorful images. It works with kids and cartoons. Why not with customers waiting for their pizza? This place will be on the rotation when i want pizza.

Jennifer helped make the sandwiches, and everything was proportioned perfectly. She even knew how to put the vinaigrette on the sub and didn't drown it like how other locations do.
