Coconut Bliss Bowl
Vanessa H.

You have to stop by this place!! It's so dang good! It's got a variety of different fresh juices, coffee, acai bowls, and savory bites! The guy taking our order was awesome and service was quick. I had the horchata latte and it's a definitely a must try! It's got a good balance of cinnamon, coffee, and creamy horchata flavor. I'm a sweet drink person so this was perfect amount of sweetness. I got the coconut bliss bowl and it hit the spot! Fruits were fresh and I like my bowls with half coconut and half acai :D My friend got the bagel with cheese, egg, and bacon and said it was really good. It's a cute little shop with beach vibes. I worked from here for the day and I'll definitely be back. They have WiFi with a few tables and a window you can sit by.

The Funky Mix
Miranda M.

Came here one morning for drinks with a friend! Located near Mission Beach, this little spot is adorable. Some tables outside, inside, and little bar seating inside. The menu includes juices, smoothies and breakfast items. I ordered a large The Funky Mix (Dandelion, Pear, Celery, Pineapple, Kale, Green Apple, Lemon, Ginger and Coconut Water) as the coconut water was as much needed. I liked it a lot but it didn't mix as well as I'd hoped. Still delicious! The order was ready pretty quickly and the person who served me was really nice.

Avocado Toast and Acai Bowl
Dena F.

Luckily the next time we stopped by the Funky Lemon they were open and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast. I ordered avocado toast and it was the best avocado toast and I've ever had. So much avocado, so many fresh greens and the egg was cooked to perfection. The bread was delicious as well. Hubs had their Acai Bowl and loved it as well. Super cute spot! Bummer, arrived for a bite at 12:50 on a Wednesday and they were closed. Luckily it was only a 5-minute walk, so I didn't waste too much time. Would have given 1 star, but perhaps there was a good reason to close early? Probably would be good to update your hours on Ggl maps, tho, if you're going to close early...

Funky Lemon is a cute spot on the corner serving smoothies, coffee, acai bowls, and hot breakfast items. The hubby and I ordered an acai bowl and a coconut bowls which were both delightful and flavorful. They were packed with fresh fruit, granola, honey, and he added peanut butter to his Acai bowl. Service was solid, they were quite busy but churning out orders. The shop itself is cozy but they have seating at the window and a few small tables inside. Best view of course is the ocean which is just a block away, so grab a bite and take it to go and sit along the wall and take in the waves.

Doing Me açaí bowl - super delicious! And super cute shop generally
Sabrina M.

Best (beef) empanada I have ever had. No exaggeration. It wasn't dry and the onions/bell pepper/spice combo was literally perfect. In addition to the insanely delicious empanada, we ordered the Zen Breakfast Burrito, the Avoca-duh Toast with a fried egg, and the Doing Me acai bowl. At first I was concerned that our eyes were bigger than our stomachs and we had ordered too much between the two of us... but we finished every single crumb. The establishment itself is super small but also super cute and well decorated - very "insta friendly", if you will. The the service was great and the team was very kind. Every single thing we ordered was absolutely delightful and I am so excited to go back to The Funky Lemon to try another dish and maybe some of their drinks.

I really liked The Funky Lemon, which was within walking distance of our Mission Beach Airbnb. It had a breezy vibe and an extensive menu. I loved the bowls so much that I came back twice during our week's stay. My fav was the Doing It bowl, piled high with fruit. What a great way to start the beach day!

Decent coffee. Some seating inside. Service was ok. More milk to coffee ration on the latte but it was decent.

Heavenly Honey wellness shot
Kaye Y.

Cute neighborhood cafe. I enjoyed my breakfast, my order come out fast and hot. My wellness shot was delicious. I didn't get photos of the food, but from what I saw the bowls were beautiful, and the staff was so welcoming and nice. This is a must when in the area.

What a vibe! Come in and hang out for a few minutes while you enjoy a refreshing, healthy, and guilt free juice or smoothie. Of course they have coffee and acai bowls and other stuff too but we didn't get to those. The barista was so incredibly helpful and friendly. Seems like a genuine and fun person and we really appreciated his kindness and energy. You can't go wrong with any smoothie and ours was very enjoyable. You'll feel better after haha Drinks: 8/10 Atmosphere: 8/10 Service: 9/10 Value: 7/10

Oh Honey! and Easy Peasy Lemon Squezy

We stopped here on our beach walk and got the Oh Honey! and Easy Peasy Lemon Squezy smoothies. Oh Honey is light and refreshing and the Easy Peasy Lemon Squezy is very tart/sour and good for anyone who loves lemon. Would recommend!

Too much head/ foam . This was the liquid content of the drink the feast was the foam 24oz cup . Very delicious though
Cj J.

Already honestly the only reason why they're getting minus one star is because of the head/ foam in my drink of 24 oz probably 16 of it was foam. See photos . The drink was delicious. It was definitely what I needed for my morning run. Service was amazing and quick . The location was perfect and ideal to my run . The shop itself was beautiful inside .

Soooo cute everything yummy! 10/10

The smoothies are good and unique. My blue spirulina bowl was alright. The bowl was kind of icy and liquidy.

I had seen Benedict's all over social media and needed to go check it out and wow - it did not…read moredisappoint! We ordered ahead on DoorDash which I definitely recommend as there was a line at 11am when we arrived. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon and avocado. We weren't sure what to expect or if it was overhyped but definitely not, it was such a delicious breakfast sandwich! The garlic bread truly makes it. The egg is fluffy and the cheese, with the green sauce and avocado - perfection. I split one sandwich with my boyfriend which was perfect! We also liked the breakfast potato's it came with. The only thing we wish it had was crispy bacon but other than that, great flavor! Will definitely be back!

Benedict's gets 4 stars from me mainly because of the parking situation and a few things that could…read moremake the experience smoother. Parking is really difficult to find in this area, so definitely give yourself extra time if you're driving. The line can also get pretty long since there isn't someone dedicated to taking orders, which makes the wait feel longer. That being said, the food is delicious! The coffee is also really good, so once you get your food, it's definitely worth it. The seating situation can be a little tricky as well. There isn't a whole lot of shaded seating, especially if you're trying to sit outside and actually relax and enjoy your breakfast. Depending on the time of day, it can get pretty warm. Overall, I enjoyed the food and coffee and would come back. Just be prepared for limited parking, a longer line, and limited shaded seating. If they improved those areas, this would easily be a 5-star experience!
